Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of porcelain production technology, specifically a protective structure for conveyor belts of ceramic products. Background Technology
[0002] In the modern ceramic product manufacturing process, the conveyor belt, as a key transportation equipment, undertakes the important task of transporting ceramic products from the production stage to the subsequent processing and packaging stages. However, due to the brittle and hard texture and easily damaged surface of ceramic products, many problems are encountered during the transportation process.
[0003] Traditional conveyor belts lack a centering and positioning device when transporting ceramic products. The ceramic products are prone to deviation and collision on the conveyor belt. Once a collision occurs, the ceramic products are very likely to suffer from quality problems such as breakage and cracks. This not only wastes raw materials, but also affects the production schedule and increases production costs. Utility Model Content

[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the support frame is fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor belt body, the outer wall of the protrusion contacts the outer wall of the slide plate, the outer wall of the clamp is provided with a rubber strip, the support frame is restricted on the conveyor belt body, the protrusion is driven by the drive motor to make the rotating shaft rotate with the protrusion, the rotating protrusion will repeatedly squeeze the slide plate, causing the slider to drive the clamp to expand to both sides, and the rubber strip provided on the outer wall of the clamp can prevent damage to the object when the clamp is centered.
[0009] Preferably, one end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the clamping plate, and the other end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing block. The first spring applies a pushing force to the clamping plate through its elastic force, causing the clamping plate to push towards the middle of the conveyor belt body.

[0013] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0014] This utility model provides a protective structure for conveyor belts used in ceramic products. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] (I) The protective structure for the conveyor belt of ceramic products is driven by a motor to rotate the shaft and the protrusion. The repeated squeezing of the slide by the protrusion allows the clamping plate to expand and return flexibly. The rubber strip on the outer wall of the clamping plate forms a flexible buffer layer when clamping ceramic products, avoiding surface scratches and damage caused by rigid contact, thus improving the integrity of ceramic products and reducing the defect rate. At the same time, the elastic force provided by the first spring can adjust the clamping force of the clamping plate, keeping the ceramic products in the center position of the conveyor belt at all times, avoiding falling or collision damage with other parts due to deviation. A cover plate is provided on the top of the conveyor belt body to prevent items from falling from above and damaging the ceramics during operation, providing a solid guarantee for the stable conveying of ceramic products.
[0016] (II) The protective structure for the conveyor belt of ceramic products, through the cooperation of the third spring, slide bar and slide box, enables the support plate to automatically adjust the tilt angle according to the load. When the ceramic products are placed on the support plate, the support plate flexibly rises and falls according to the weight change. After the ceramic products are conveyed, the remaining products can be quickly slid onto the conveyor belt without frequent manual intervention, which improves the feeding efficiency, reduces labor costs, and avoids errors and safety hazards that may be caused by manual operation. In addition, the setting of the second spring further enhances the stability and reliability of the feeding component, ensuring the smoothness and continuity of the entire feeding process.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a protective structure for a conveyor belt of ceramic products, including a conveyor belt body 1, a drive motor 3 fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor belt body 1, and a centering component 2 and a feeding component 4 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the conveyor belt body 1; the centering component 2 includes a support frame 26, a sliding plate 25 slidably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 26, a pillar 29 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the conveyor belt body 1, a cover plate 210 fixedly connected to the top of the pillar 29, the support frame 26 being slidably connected to a clamping plate 24 via the sliding plate 25, and the top of the clamping plate 24 being fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding plate 25, a sliding column 22 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the clamping plate 24, a first spring 23 sleeved on the outer wall of the sliding column 22, a fixing block 21 slidably connected to the outer wall of the sliding column 22, and a rotating shaft 27 fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 3. A protrusion 28 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of shaft 27. The bottom of support frame 26 is fixedly connected to the top of conveyor belt body 1. The outer wall of protrusion 28 contacts the outer wall of slide plate 25. A rubber strip is provided on the outer wall of clamp plate 24. Support frame 26 is restricted on conveyor belt body 1. Protrusion 28 is driven by drive motor 3 to make shaft 27 rotate with protrusion 28. The rotating protrusion 28 will repeatedly squeeze slide plate 25, causing the slider to drive clamp plate 24 to expand to both sides. The rubber strip provided on the outer wall of clamp plate 24 can prevent damage to the object when clamping the object in the center. One end of first spring 23 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of clamp plate 24, and the other end of first spring 23 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of fixed block 21. First spring 23 applies a pushing force to clamp plate 24 through elasticity, causing clamp plate 24 to push towards the middle of conveyor belt body 1.
[0024] The feeding assembly 4 includes a hinge block 41, with a triangular bracket 42 hinged to the top of the hinge block 41. A second spring 44 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the triangular bracket 42. The triangular bracket 42 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 43 via the second spring 44, and the top of the connecting plate 43 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second spring 44. A support plate 45 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the triangular bracket 42, and a slide rod 46 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 45. A slide box 48 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the slide rod 46, and a third spring 47 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide box 48. The outer wall of the conveyor belt is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the hinge block 41, and the outer wall of the connecting plate 43 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the conveyor belt body 1. The conveyor belt body 1 restricts the hinge block 41. Position: The connecting plate 43 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the conveyor belt body 1 to prevent the feeding assembly 4 from shifting. One end of the third spring 47 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slide rod 46, and the other end of the third spring 47 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide box 48. The third spring 47 pushes the slide rod 46 to slide on the inner wall of the slide box 48 through its own elastic force. When the material above the support plate 45 is too heavy, the slide rod 46 will drive the support plate 45 to move downward. When the material is conveyed by the conveyor belt, the weight above the support plate 45 is reduced, and the third spring 47 will push the slide rod 46 to move upward. At this time, the support plate 45 will tilt at an increased angle due to the push of the slide rod 46, so that the material above the support plate 45 slides onto the conveyor belt body 1, so that the conveyor belt body 1 can continuously convey.
[0025] In use, when ceramic products need to be conveyed, the drive motor 3 is started, and its output end drives the rotating shaft 27 to rotate. The protrusion 28 fixed on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 27 rotates accordingly. During the rotation of the protrusion 28, it periodically squeezes the slide plate 25. Since the bottom of the support frame 26 is fixed to the top of the conveyor belt body 1, the slide plate 25 can slide on the inner wall of the support frame 26. Therefore, under the squeezing of the protrusion 28, the slide plate 25 drives the clamping plate 24 to expand to both sides. At the same time, the first spring 23 sleeved on the outer wall of the sliding column 22 is stretched, and the clamping plate... When the rubber strip on the outer wall of 24 comes into contact with the ceramic product, it can avoid damage to the surface of the ceramic product. When the protrusion 28 rotates to no longer squeeze the slide plate 25, the first spring 23 contracts due to its own elasticity, and applies a pushing force to the middle of the conveyor belt body 1 on the clamping plate 24, so that the clamping plate 24 is reset and the ceramic product is clamped in the center, ensuring that the ceramic product is in the center position on the conveyor belt, avoiding displacement, falling or collision damage. A cover plate 210 is provided above the conveyor belt body 1 to prevent items from falling from above during operation and damaging the ceramic.
[0026] Regarding the feeding component 4, the hinge block 41 is fixed to the outer wall of the conveyor belt body 1, providing a hinge fulcrum for the triangular bracket 42. The second spring 44 connected to the bottom of the triangular bracket 42 is fixed to the connecting plate 43, which is also fixed to the outer wall of the conveyor belt body 1, ensuring the stability of the feeding component 4. When ceramic products are placed on the support plate 45, if the weight is large, the support plate 45 will drive the slide bar 46 to move downward under the action of gravity, compressing the third spring 47 in the slide box 48. As the conveyor belt runs, the ceramic products are conveyed away from the support plate 45, and the weight above the support plate 45 is reduced. At this time, the third spring 47 releases its own elasticity, pushing the slide bar 46 to move upward. During the upward movement of the slide bar 46, the tilt angle of the support plate 45 increases, and the remaining unconveyed ceramic products will slide down onto the conveyor belt body 1 under the action of gravity, realizing automatic continuous feeding without frequent manual operation, thus improving the conveying efficiency of ceramic products.
