Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveyor technology, and in particular to a foldable belt conveyor support for mining. Background Technology
[0002] A conveyor is a machine that continuously and evenly transports bulk or packaged goods from loading point to unloading point along a certain route. The goods are transported continuously along a certain route, and the loading and unloading of the working components are carried out during the movement process without stopping. There is little starting and braking. The bulk goods being transported are distributed in a continuous form on the bearing components, and the packaged goods being transported also move continuously in a certain order.
[0003] Because mining conveyors are large in size and have long conveying distances, the current method of manually flipping and folding the conveyors during movement is to cause damage to the equipment by the flipped parts hitting the fixed parts during the folding process, which affects the use of the equipment. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the aforementioned shortcomings by providing a foldable belt conveyor support for mining, enabling the conveyor to be flipped and folded, thus preventing damage to the conveyor during the folding process.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a foldable belt conveyor support for mining, comprising:
[0006] A first support and a second support, wherein the opposite ends of the first support and the second support are hinged together, and a conveyor belt is provided on the first support and the second support;
[0007] The damping grooves are symmetrically arranged along the length of the first support.
[0008] A buffer section is symmetrically arranged on the second support. One end of the buffer section is hinged to the second support, and the other end extends into the damping groove. The damping groove is combined with the buffer section to provide resistance when the second support is flipped and folded.
[0009] A belt guide is provided between the first support and the second support to guide the conveyor belt when the conveyor is folded.
[0010] Furthermore, the second support includes a telescopic rod whose length can be adjusted to regulate the tension of the conveyor belt.
[0011] Furthermore, the buffer section includes fixed seats symmetrically arranged on the telescopic rod;
[0012] It also includes a damper hinged to a fixed base, wherein the end of the damper is provided with a damping ball located in a damping groove.
[0013] Furthermore, the belt guide includes support blocks symmetrically arranged at the ends of the first bracket, and a rotating shaft for limiting the upper and lower movement of the conveyor belt is provided through the two support blocks.
[0014] Two rotating posts that limit the upper surface of the conveyor belt are provided through the two support blocks.
[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a rotating part, which is set on the second bracket, so that the second bracket can be folded and stored.
[0016] The rotating part includes a rotating block disposed on the telescopic rod, the rotating block being provided with a lifting rod, and the rotating block being provided with a stud for pressing the telescopic rod.
[0017] Furthermore, the first bracket is provided with a plurality of support seats for supporting the folding second bracket.
[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model are reflected in:
[0019] This invention involves an operator flipping a second support on a first support. The telescopic rod on the second support adjusts the length of the conveyor belt. When the second support rotates to a right angle on the first support, the buffer section, under the influence of gravity, points vertically downwards. The inclined surface within the damping groove adjusts the angle of the buffer section. Continuing to rotate the second support, the buffer section slides within the damping groove. The damping groove and damping ball move slowly due to friction, compressing the damper and providing cushioning. The belt guide guides the conveyor belt at the fold. When the second support is flipped and folded onto the first support, the support base supports it. A rotating block then drives a lifting rod to rotate vertically downwards, reducing the height of the second support. The height of the second support can then be adjusted using the lifting rod to meet different material conveying height requirements. This achieves the flipping and folding of the conveyor, preventing the second support from hitting the first support during folding and thus avoiding damage to the conveyor.
