Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] Vacuum belt dryers are continuous feeding and discharging vacuum drying equipment that operates under a high vacuum. Our company's original belt-aligning device for vacuum belt dryers used a mechanical slider structure on the drive roller. During operation, material inside the dryer easily fell onto the roller surface, causing belt deviation. The mechanical slider structure was prone to material accumulation, leading to jamming of the alignment device. This resulted in the conveyor belt not being able to correct itself promptly after deviation, leading to frequent equipment malfunctions and repairs, severely impacting production efficiency.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this embodiment of the invention according to the specific circumstances.
[0041] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below.
[0042] Example 1
[0043] Firstly, see [the following] Figure 1 This embodiment first briefly introduces the structure of the vacuum belt dryer conveyor, which includes a box 1, a support 2 is provided inside the box 1, and multiple layers of conveyor belts are arranged from top to bottom on the support 2. Each layer of conveyor belts is provided with a drive roller and a driven roller at both ends.
[0044] Secondly, see Figures 1-3 This embodiment provides a correction device for a vacuum belt dryer conveyor, which replaces the aforementioned driven roller, with the driving roller serving only as the driving end of the conveyor belt. The correction device for the vacuum belt dryer conveyor includes a fixed half-shaft 3 and a movable half-shaft 4. The cross-section of the fixed half-shaft 3 is a semi-circular ring, and the cross-section of the movable half-shaft 4 is a semi-circular ring. The two can be joined together to form a hollow roller. In this embodiment, multiple protrusions are distributed circumferentially on the outer wall of the fixed half-shaft 3, and multiple protrusions are distributed circumferentially on the outer wall of the movable half-shaft 4.
[0045] Both ends of the hollow roller are equipped with a correction mechanism, which includes a connecting shaft 5, a correction cylinder 6, a correction connecting rod 7, a sliding sleeve 8, and a tensioning cylinder 9.
[0046] One end of the connecting shaft 5 is mounted on the support 2 of the vacuum belt dryer via a bearing 52, and the other end is connected to an extension shaft 51. The cross-section of the connecting shaft 5 is circular, and the cross-section of the extension shaft 51 is polygonal. The outer diameter of the extension shaft 51 is smaller than the outer diameter of the connecting shaft 5. The fixed half-shaft 3 is fastened to the connecting shaft 5.
[0047] The correction cylinder 6 is mounted on the bracket 2 and is located on one side of the bearing 52.
[0048] One end of the alignment linkage 7 is located inside the hollow drum and is rotatably connected to the sliding sleeve 8, while the other end slides through the connecting shaft 5 and is connected to the movable end of the alignment cylinder 6.
[0049] The inner side of the sliding sleeve 8 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the extension shaft 51. The sliding sleeve 8 and the extension shaft 51 can rotate synchronously, and the sliding sleeve 8 can move with the correction link 7. The movable half shaft 4 is fastened to the sliding sleeve 8. The correction link 7 has a shoulder 71, and a fastening ring 72 is threaded onto the correction link 7. One end of the correction link 7 passes through one end of the sliding sleeve 8. The shoulder 71 and the fastening ring 72 cooperate to make the sliding sleeve 8 move with the correction link 7.
[0050] The tensioning cylinder 9 is mounted on the bracket 2, and the movable end of the tensioning cylinder 9 is connected to the bearing 52 through the connector 91.
[0051] The conveyor belt moves under the drive of the drive roller, which in turn drives the hollow roller to rotate. When the hollow roller rotates, the fixed half-shaft 3 and the movable half-shaft 4 can contact the conveyor belt one after the other. When the movable half-shaft 4 contacts the conveyor belt and the conveyor belt deviates to one side, the correction mechanism located on that side activates to drive the hollow roller to move in the opposite direction. The friction between the hollow roller and the conveyor belt allows the conveyor belt to move together with the hollow roller, thereby centering the conveyor belt and achieving correction. Since correction mechanisms are provided at both ends of the hollow roller, bidirectional correction can be achieved. Specifically, the working principle of the correction mechanism is as follows: when the correction cylinder 6 is activated, it drives the correction connecting rod 7, which in turn drives the sliding sleeve 8, which in turn drives the movable half-shaft 4 to move. In addition, the tensioning cylinder 9 adjusts the tension of the conveyor belt wound on the drive roller and the hollow roller by adjusting the distance between the hollow roller and the drive roller of the vacuum belt dryer. By appropriately increasing the tension of the conveyor belt, the friction between the movable half shaft 4 and the conveyor belt is increased, so as to ensure that the movable half shaft 4 can drive the conveyor belt to move together to achieve correction.
[0052] Compared to mechanical slider correction structures, the correction device in this embodiment is less prone to jamming due to material accumulation. In addition, the correction device in this embodiment is no longer located at the drive roller, so there is no need to consider the coordination with the drive equipment used to drive the drive roller.
[0053] Example 2
[0054] See Figures 1-4 The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that, in this embodiment, the movable half-shaft 4 has multiple grooves 41 spaced apart along its circumference, and rubber strips 42 are connected inside the grooves 41. The rubber strips 42 help to increase the friction between the movable half-shaft 4 and the conveyor belt.
[0055] Furthermore, along the radial direction of the movable half-shaft 4, the closer to the axis of the movable half-shaft 4, the wider the same groove 41 becomes, and the cross-sectional shape of the rubber strip 42 matches the shape of the groove 41. This helps to improve the installation firmness of the rubber strip 42.
[0056] Furthermore, the rubber strip 42 has a V-shaped notch 421 on the side facing the axis of the movable half-shaft 4. This facilitates pressing the rubber strip 42 into the groove 41 after squeezing, and also allows the rubber strip 42 to improve the tightness of the connection between the rubber strip 42 and the groove 41 by utilizing its own restoring force.
[0057] Example 3
[0058] This embodiment is a further improvement based on embodiment 2.
[0059] See Figures 1-4 The movable half-shaft 4 is provided with multiple first baffles 43 on the side where it is to be joined with the fixed half-shaft 3, and the fixed half-shaft 3 is provided with multiple second baffles 31 on the side where it is to be joined with the movable half-shaft 4. The first baffles 43 and the second baffles 31 are staggered and form a maze structure at the connection between the movable half-shaft 4 and the fixed half-shaft 3. This reduces the probability of material entering the hollow drum (in order to ensure the smooth movement of the movable half-shaft 4, there is a certain gap at the connection between the movable half-shaft 4 and the fixed half-shaft 3).
[0060] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. For those skilled in the art, this application can have various modifications and variations. Without conflict, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of this application can be arbitrarily combined with each other. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
