Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of belt conveyors, specifically an adjustable trough corner idler frame. Background Technology

[0002] During the operation of a belt conveyor, the trough angle of the upper idler frame has a significant impact on the running stability of the conveyor belt and the material conveying efficiency.

[0003] In the field of material handling, the upper idler frame, as a key component of the conveyor system, typically works in conjunction with the conveyor belt to achieve continuous material transport. However, in practical applications, existing upper idler frames, when used in conjunction with conveyor belts, have revealed numerous problems affecting conveying efficiency. Specifically, during operation, a certain amount of material inevitably adheres to the surface of the conveyor belt. As the conveyor belt circulates, this material adhering to its surface cannot effectively participate in the normal conveying process, leading to a gradual decrease in the actual amount of material transported. This phenomenon directly results in reduced conveying efficiency, increased conveying costs, and adversely affects the stability and economy of the entire material conveying system. Furthermore, the trough angle of traditional upper idler frames is usually fixed, making it impossible to flexibly adjust according to different working conditions and material characteristics, thus limiting the performance and applicability of the conveyor.

[0023] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this application provides an adjustable trough corner roller frame, including a base 1, on which an angle-adjustable side support 2 is provided; the base 1 and the side support 2 are rotatably connected.

[0026] Two vertical plates 3 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the base 1. Each vertical plate 3 has a downwardly movable support plate 4, and a detachable cleaning brush 5 is positioned between the two support plates 4. By pressing down on the support plate 4, it descends a certain distance, causing the 11 to be in an extended state. Then, the positioning hole 8 on the spring 5 is aligned with the protruding rod 7, and the spring 5 is placed on the support plate 4. Releasing the support plate 4 causes it to return to its original position under the action of the 11, ensuring it fits tightly against the conveyor belt surface. When the conveyor belt is running, the cleaning brush 5 efficiently cleans any residual material on the conveyor belt. This design effectively avoids the problem of the actual material conveyed by the conveyor belt gradually decreasing over time due to material residue, ensuring the stability and accuracy of material conveying during long-term operation, thereby improving the reliability and efficiency of the entire material conveying system.

[0027] The tray 4 is L-shaped, and a protruding rod 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the tray 4. The top of the cleaning brush 5 is provided with a positioning hole 8 that cooperates with the protruding rod 7.

[0028] A straight rod 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 4, and a connecting plate 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the vertical plate 3. The straight rod 9 and the connecting plate 10 are slidably connected.

[0029] A spring 11 is sleeved on the straight rod 9, and the spring 11 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 10 and the support plate 4 respectively.

[0030] The top of the cleaning brush 5 has several through holes 12.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] Based on Example 1, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown.

[0033] The base 1 is hinged to a lower hinge seat 13, and the side support 2 is hinged to an upper hinge seat 6.

[0034] The lower hinge seat 13 and the upper hinge seat 6 are connected by a lead screw 14. By rotating the lead screw 14, the distance between the upper hinge seat 6 and the lower hinge seat 13 can be adjusted, thereby causing the side support 2 to rotate on the base 1, which in turn adjusts the angle of the side idler roller 17. This facilitates adaptation to different belt conveyor operating conditions and material characteristics, improves the running stability and conveying efficiency of the conveyor belt, and has a certain function of preventing belt deviation.

[0035] Two central supports 15 are fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, a central roller 16 is provided between the two central supports 15, and a side roller 17 is provided on the side support 2.

[0036] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: by rotating the lead screw 14, the distance between the upper hinge seat 6 and the lower hinge seat 13 is adjusted, thereby causing the side support 2 to rotate on the base 1, thereby adjusting the angle of the side idler roller 17. This facilitates adaptation to different belt conveyor working conditions and material characteristics, improves the running stability and conveying efficiency of the conveyor belt, and has a certain function of preventing belt deviation.

[0037] By pressing down on the support plate 4, it descends a certain distance, while 11 is in an extended state under force. Then, the positioning hole 8 on the spring 5 is aligned with the protruding rod 7, and the spring 5 is placed on the support plate 4. Releasing the support plate 4, under the action of 11, causes it to return to its original position, ensuring it fits tightly against the conveyor belt surface. When the conveyor belt is running, the cleaning brush 5 efficiently cleans residual material from the conveyor belt. This design effectively avoids the problem of the actual material conveyed by the conveyor belt gradually decreasing over time due to material residue, ensuring the stability and accuracy of material conveying during long-term operation, thereby improving the reliability and efficiency of the entire material conveying system.

[0038] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical methods of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical methods of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical methods of this utility model.
