Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mine protection, and in particular to a safety protection device for belt conveyors used in mine operations. Background Technology

[0002] The safety protection device for belt conveyors used in mining is a comprehensive system that integrates sensing and monitoring, automatic control and mechanical protection. It is mainly used to detect abnormalities in the operation of the conveyor belt in real time (such as belt deviation, tearing, slippage, coal piling, overheating, etc.) and trigger emergency shutdown protection actions when danger occurs.

[0003] In the prior art, compared with the Chinese utility model with announcement number CN207375182U, a safety protection device for belt conveyors in mining is disclosed. It protects both sides of the conveyor belt by adding protective nets on both sides. However, it has been found that the main reason for the ore falling off the conveyor is that the ore is uneven when it is dropped, which causes one side of the conveyor belt to be unbalanced. Under the condition of gravity eccentricity, the conveyor belt derails or deviates, causing the ore to fall. Moreover, long-term eccentricity can easily cause the conveyor belt to be damaged due to excessive stress. Utility Model Content

The top of the oil pipe seat has a mounting seat. An inner telescopic plate is slidably connected inside the support plate on the side corresponding to the mounting seat. Both the pressure plate and the inner telescopic plate are connected to the mounting seat on one side via connecting seats.

[0008] Preferably, the buffer engagement mechanism includes a limiting frame, which is installed on the bottom surface of the support plate.

[0009] Preferably, the limiting frame is connected to the support plate by welding, and the slide is slidably connected to the limiting frame by a slide rail. The sliding range of the slide inside the limiting frame is one-quarter of the width of the conveyor belt of the conveyor belt mechanism.

[0010] Preferably, the inner telescopic plate rotates around the connecting seat as an axis, and the rotation angle of the inner telescopic plate is 30°-60°.

[0011] Preferably, the pressure detection mechanism is located in the middle between the first set of support wheels and the second set of support wheels on the conveyor belt mechanism, and the correction and protection mechanism is located in the middle between the second set of support wheels and the third set of support wheels on the conveyor belt mechanism.

It improves the protection effect by straightening the ore during conveying, and uses a buffer mechanism with rapid extension and buffering to avoid excessive impact on the ore and conveyor belt during the correction process, thus improving the safety of the correction process and ensuring the effectiveness of the correction and protection.

[0030] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0031] like Figures 1-9 As shown, a safety protection device for a belt conveyor used in mining includes a pressure detection mechanism 3 for detecting eccentricity of ore on the conveyor belt mechanism 1 and a correction protection mechanism 4 for correcting eccentric ore. The correction protection mechanism 4 is installed in the discharge direction of the pressure detection mechanism 3. The bottom of both the pressure detection mechanism 3 and the correction protection mechanism 4 is connected to a support mechanism 2 for fixing and transmitting hydraulic pressure. A buffering mechanism 5 for buffering the correction power is installed on the correction protection mechanism 4.

[0032] The pressure detection mechanism 3 includes a pressure plate 31 and a pressure cylinder 32. The bottom of the pressure plate 31 is connected to the oil pipe seat 21 of the support mechanism 2 through the pressure cylinder 32. The correction and protection mechanism 4 includes a support plate 41. The bottom of the support plate 41 is connected to the oil pipe seat 21 through the support cylinder 42. The oil pipe seat 21 is provided with an oil cavity and a reset component inside. The top of the oil pipe seat 21 is provided with a mounting seat 22. The support plate 41 is slidably connected to one side of the mounting seat 22. The pressure plate 31 and the inner telescopic plate 44 are both connected to the mounting seat 22 through a connecting seat 43 on one side.

[0033] In this embodiment, the buffer engagement mechanism 5 includes a limiting frame 51, which is installed on the bottom surface of the support plate 41. A slide block 52 is slidably connected to the inner side of the limiting frame 51. The bottom of the slide block 52 is connected to the piston rod of the support cylinder 42 through a pin. The slide block 52 is slidably connected to the limiting frame 51 through a slide rod 53. A support spring 54 for supporting the sliding of the slide block 52 is sleeved on the slide rod 53.

[0034] In this embodiment, the limiting frame 51 is connected to the support plate 41 by welding, and the slide block 52 is slidably connected to the limiting frame 51 by the slide rail. The sliding range of the slide block 52 inside the limiting frame 51 is one-quarter of the width of the conveyor belt 11 of the conveyor belt mechanism 1.

[0035] In this embodiment, the inner telescopic plate 44 rotates around the connecting seat 43, and the rotation angle of the inner telescopic plate 44 is 30°-60°.

[0036] In this embodiment, the pressure detection mechanism 3 is located in the middle between the first set of support wheels and the second set of support wheels on the conveyor belt mechanism 1, and the correction and protection mechanism 4 is located in the middle between the second set of support wheels and the third set of support wheels on the conveyor belt mechanism 1.

[0037] In this embodiment, the top of the pressure cylinder 32 is connected to the pressure plate 31 via a support, and the bottom of the pressure cylinder 32 is connected to the oil pipe seat 21 via a support.

[0038] In this embodiment, the reset assembly inside the oil pipe seat 21 includes a piston, a reset spring, and a squeezing oil chamber. The piston is slidably connected to the squeezing oil chamber, and the reset spring is correspondingly installed on one side of the correction and protection mechanism 4.

[0039] Working principle: During use, if the ore being transported on the conveyor belt 11 accumulates at one end, the accumulated ore will exert excessive pressure on one side of the conveyor belt 11, causing one end to become deeper, which may result in tipping over and ore leakage.

[0040] When one end of the conveyor belt 11 is pressed down, it triggers the pressure plate 31, causing it to flip. The flipped pressure plate 31 then compresses the pressure cylinder 32, causing it to contract. The initial hydraulic pressure from the pressure cylinder 32 provides preliminary correction to the ore. Simultaneously, the hydraulic pressure, through the oil pipe and the oil chamber inside the pipe seat 21, compresses the piston. The piston compresses the spring and the oil on the other side, pushing the support cylinder 42 to extend. After the support cylinder 42 extends, it supports the support plate 41 to flip and stand upright via the slide 52. During this standing process, the slide 52 also compresses the support spring 54. When the support plate 41 extends with the inner telescopic plate 44 as a reference, it raises the center of gravity of the support point of the slide 52, and the support position of the bottom of the conveyor belt 11 will also be higher. During the correction of the conveyor belt 11, the higher the support point, the less likely it is to be unable to support due to excessive ore pressure. At the same time, the buffer between the slide 52, the limit frame 51, and the support spring 54 is used to avoid rigid impact, which could cause the conveyor belt 11 to be damaged under the squeezing of the ore and the support plate 41. This ensures the correction of the ore and achieves the protective effect, thereby ensuring the subsequent conveying of ore.

[0041] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
