AI Technical Summary
The existing roll paper conveyor line is difficult to adjust in width, which makes it easy for small roll paper to tilt and jam in the bending section, and requires multiple workers to work together to adjust it.
The guardrail is divided into multiple sections, making the straight and curved sections independent. The position of each section is adjusted sequentially by the adjuster, so that the width of the conveyor line can be flexibly adjusted.
This reduces the difficulty of adjusting the width of the conveyor line, avoids the jamming of small-sized paper rolls in the bending section, and improves the flexibility and efficiency of the conveyor line.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of roll paper conveying, and in particular to a roll paper conveying line with adjustable width. Background Technology
[0002] After production is completed, the paper rolls need to be transported to the packaging station for packaging. With the improvement of automation, paper rolls are generally transported by conveyor lines (such as conveyor belts). In order to meet market demand, paper rolls come in various specifications, such as paper rolls with a diameter of 89mm and paper rolls with a diameter of 120mm. In order to save equipment costs and meet the requirements of conveyor line installation space, paper rolls of different specifications are transported by the same conveyor line. Therefore, the width of the conveyor line (the distance between the two sides of the conveyor line) is usually required to meet the needs of conveying the largest diameter roll of paper. That is, the width of the conveyor line is matched to the size required for conveying a 120mm roll of paper, which is much larger than the size required for conveying other smaller rolls of paper (such as 89mm diameter rolls). When conveying smaller rolls of paper, due to the larger width of the conveyor line, the smaller rolls of paper are prone to tilting at the bends in the conveyor line, thus getting stuck between the side plates on both sides of the conveyor line, which in turn causes jamming at the subsequent packaging station. Therefore, the width of the conveyor line needs to be adjusted each time smaller rolls of paper are conveyed to meet the size requirements for conveying smaller rolls of paper.
[0003] However, because the current conveyor line consists of a single, continuous guardrail on both sides—meaning the straight and curved sections are a single unit—and due to the long conveyor route, the width of the conveyor line is difficult to adjust. Each adjustment requires constant repositioning of local areas and the coordination of multiple workers. Therefore, the conveyor line needs to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an adjustable paper roll conveyor line to address the aforementioned problems. By dividing the complete guardrail into multiple segments, the straight segments and curved segments are made independent of each other, allowing for the sequential adjustment of each segment, thereby effectively reducing the difficulty of adjusting the width of the conveyor line.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a roll paper conveyor line with adjustable width, including a conveyor belt and a drive mechanism for driving the conveyor belt to move. Both sides of the conveyor belt have guard plate assemblies. At least one side of the guard plate assembly consists of at least one straight segment and at least one curved segment. The straight segment and the curved segment are not connected to each other. The straight segment and the curved segment on the same side are respectively connected to an adjuster. The adjuster can move the straight segment and the curved segment along the width direction of the conveyor belt.
[0006] Furthermore, it also includes a support belt seat, on which the conveyor belt is fitted and which constrains the movement path of the conveyor belt.
[0007] Furthermore, the drive mechanism includes rollers located on both sides of the conveyor belt, wherein at least one roller is mechanically connected to a drive motor.
[0008] Furthermore, the regulator includes a guide rod and a slide block slidably connected to the guide rod. The axial direction of the guide rod is parallel to the width direction of the conveyor belt, and the slide block is fixedly connected to the straight section and the curved section.
[0009] Furthermore, a connecting rod is provided between the slide block and the straight segment, and between the slide block and the curved segment. The connecting rod is L-shaped, with one end fixedly connected to the slide block and the other end fixedly connected to the straight segment and the curved segment.
[0010] Furthermore, a locking mechanism exists between the slide and the guide rod.
[0011] Furthermore, the slide has two opposing clamping blocks with a gap between them, and a guide rod is located between the two clamping blocks. A bolt passes through the two clamping blocks, and the two clamping blocks and the bolt form a locking mechanism.
[0012] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] This invention divides a complete guardrail into multiple segments, making the straight and curved segments independent of each other, and allows for the gradual adjustment of each segment, thereby effectively reducing the difficulty of adjusting the width of the conveyor line.

[0020] In the description of this manual, it should be noted that if terms such as "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," or "outer" appear to indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product is in use, they are only for the convenience of describing this manual and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this manual.
[0021] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "horizontal" and "vertical" in this specification does not imply that the component must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that it can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal relative to "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.
[0022] In the description of this specification, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms “set up,” “install,” “connect,” and “connection” should be interpreted broadly. For example, a connection can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components.
[0023] Example 1
[0024] like Figures 1-4 As shown, an adjustable width paper conveyor line includes a conveyor belt 2 and a drive mechanism for driving the conveyor belt 2. Both sides of the conveyor belt 2 have guard plate assemblies 1. At least one side of the guard plate assembly 1 consists of at least one straight segment 11 and at least one curved segment 12. The straight segment 11 and the curved segment 12 are not connected to each other. The straight segment 11 and the curved segment 12 on the same side are respectively connected to an adjuster 3. The adjuster 3 can move the straight segment 11 and the curved segment 12 along the width direction of the conveyor belt 2.
[0025] It should be noted that the key point of the scheme disclosed in this embodiment is to divide the guard plate into multiple straight segments 11 and curved segments 12. The structure of the conveyor belt 2, the drive mechanism, and the specific connection structure between the conveyor belt 2 and the drive mechanism are methods known to those skilled in the art. For example, the drive mechanism includes rollers located on both sides of the conveyor belt 2, wherein at least one roller is mechanically connected to a drive motor, the conveyor belt 2 is sleeved on the roller, and the rotation of the roller causes the conveyor belt 2 to move; furthermore, it also includes a belt seat 21 that plays a supporting role. The conveyor belt 2 is sleeved on the belt seat 21, and the belt seat 21 constrains the movement path of the conveyor belt 2. This structure is also the structure of existing conveyor lines. That is, because the conveyor belt 2 has a long conveying path, the belt seat 21 is set to support the conveyor belt 2 and ensure the movement stability of the conveyor belt 2.
[0026] In this embodiment, as described above, the guard plate assembly 1 consists of at least one straight segment 11 and at least one curved segment 12. The movement path of the conveyor belt 2 consists of two straight paths and one curved path. Therefore, the guard plate assembly 1 consists of two straight segments 11 and one curved segment 12. When adjusting the width of the conveyor line, the position of the straight segments 11 and the curved segments 12 on the width of the conveyor belt 2 can be adjusted one by one by the adjuster 3, so that the straight segments 11 and the curved segments 12 are independent of each other, and each segment can be adjusted one by one, thereby effectively reducing the difficulty of adjusting the width of the conveyor line.
[0027] It should be noted that the translation direction of the straight segment 11 and the curved segment 12 is limited to translation along the width direction, so that each segment will not be wide at one end and narrow at the other during the adjustment process, and the width of each position of the conveyor line will be kept as consistent as possible.
[0028] Example 2
[0029] Based on Example 1, further feasible implementation methods are proposed.
[0030] In one feasible implementation, the regulator 3 can be fixed on the belt seat 21 or installed on the ground by a bracket; the regulator 3 includes a guide rod 31 and a slide block 32 slidably connected to the guide rod 31. The axial direction of the guide rod 31 is parallel to the width direction of the conveyor belt 2. The slide block 32 is fixedly connected to the straight section 11 and the curved section 12. By sliding the slide block 32, the position of the slide block 32 on the guide rod 31 is changed, thereby moving the straight section 11 and the curved section 12 along the width direction of the conveyor belt 2.
[0031] In one feasible implementation, a connecting rod 33 is provided between the slide block 32 and the straight segment 11, and between the slide block 32 and the curved segment 12. The connecting rod 33 is L-shaped, with one end fixedly connected to the slide block 32 and the other end fixedly connected to the straight segment 11 and the curved segment 12. By providing the L-shaped connecting rod 33, the height difference between the connection position on the straight segment 11 and the curved segment 12 and the slide block 32 can be compensated. This is especially applicable to the case where the guide rod 31 is installed on the seat 21.
[0032] In one feasible implementation, a locking mechanism exists between the slide block 32 and the guide rod 31 to lock the position of the slide block 32 connected to the guide rod 31 after adjustment, thereby locking the position of the straight segment 11 and the curved segment 12 after adjustment.
[0033] Furthermore, the slide block 32 has two opposing clamping blocks 321 with a gap between them, and the guide rod 31 is located between the two clamping blocks 321. A bolt passes through the two clamping blocks 321, and the two clamping blocks 321 and the bolt form a locking mechanism to achieve locking by means of clamping.
[0034] This invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. This invention extends to any new features, any new combinations, and any new methods, process steps, or any new combinations disclosed in this specification.
