Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of ball conveying technology, and more specifically, to a high-efficiency ball conveying guardrail. Background Technology

[0002] Existing conveyor railings have numerous problems. For example, some railings on the market have exposed screws, which not only affect aesthetics but also easily loosen and fall, damaging the conveyed goods and even causing safety accidents. Meanwhile, the design of some railing connection and support components is unreasonable; either they are too heavy, increasing installation and usage costs, or they cannot effectively prevent screws from loosening, leading to structural instability. Furthermore, the ball bearing layout and material selection of traditional railings are not scientifically sound, resulting in high contact friction with the conveyed goods, easily causing scratches and damage to the surface. The ball bearings themselves also wear out quickly and generate significant noise, affecting conveying efficiency and product qualification rates. Moreover, existing railings lack flexibility in layout, making it difficult to easily arrange them in straight lines or curves according to different working conditions, or to freely cut their length and combine them into modules.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a safer, more efficient, flexible conveyor ball guardrail that can adapt to various conveying needs; this application proposes a high-efficiency conveyor ball guardrail to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides a high-efficiency ball bearing conveyor guardrail.

[0005] The high-efficiency ball bearing conveyor railing provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A high-efficiency ball bearing conveyor includes guard plates and balls. The guard plates are symmetrically arranged. A support column is fixedly connected to the middle position of the opposite face of adjacent guard plates. A screw threaded to the support column is provided through the outer side of the guard plate. A number of pins are evenly arranged on the top of adjacent guard plates. Multiple balls are rotatably connected to the pins. The balls on adjacent pins are staggered.

[0007] Furthermore, the ball bearing is a T-shaped mechanism including a contact portion and a spacer portion, the diameter of the contact portion being larger than the spacer portion; the spacer portions of the balls on adjacent pins are installed in opposite directions.

[0008] Through the above technical solution, this design allows the ball bearings to have a larger contact surface when they come into contact with the conveyed object, thus better supporting the conveyed object, while the spacer can play a certain limiting role.

[0009] The ball bearings on adjacent pins are installed in opposite directions, which further optimizes the arrangement of the balls, making the conveyed material more evenly stressed during rolling. This reduces the risk of the conveyed material shifting or being damaged due to uneven stress, and improves the stability of the conveying process and the product qualification rate.

[0010] Furthermore, the protective plate is also snap-fitted with a cover, which covers the screw.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, the snap-on cover screws on the guardrail not only make the guardrail look neater and more beautiful, but more importantly, it prevents the screws from loosening and falling off due to long-term vibration or other factors. During the transportation process, if the screws fall off, they may damage the transported items or even cause safety accidents. The cover eliminates this hidden danger and improves the safety of the guardrail.

[0012] Furthermore, the support column has a hexagonal structure, and the inner wall of the guardrail is provided with a groove that fits the end of the support column.

[0013] The above technical solutions increase the friction and stability between the support column and the guardrail, making it less likely for the support column to rotate or shift when subjected to the pressure and friction of the conveyed material. Moreover, compared with other shapes such as circles, the hexagonal structure can provide greater support strength with the same amount of material, ensuring the overall stability of the guardrail structure and adapting to the conveying needs under different working conditions.

[0014] Furthermore, the ball is made of modified PP material and its outer surface is coated with modified TPE material.

[0015] Through the above technical solutions, TPE has two material properties: wear-resistant, non-stick, and non-stick. This greatly satisfies customers' choices for various working conditions, extends the service life of the balls, and reduces the noise generated during rolling, creating a quieter working environment.

[0016] If the outer TPE is made with wear-resistant and non-stick properties, it can better protect the outer surface of the conveyed object and avoid scratch damage; if a non-stick modified soft rubber is selected according to the conveying conditions, it can meet the special needs of different conveyed objects and enhance the applicability of the guardrail.

[0017] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0018] (1) The staggered arrangement of the balls and the special arrangement of the T-shaped balls make the conveyed material evenly stressed, reduce friction and deviation, and improve conveying efficiency and stability; the selection of ball material effectively reduces wear and noise, extends the service life of the guardrail, and provides a guarantee for efficient and stable conveying operations.

[0019] (2) The cover is fitted with screws to prevent the screws from loosening and falling out. This not only improves the safety of the guardrail and avoids injury to the transported goods and personnel caused by the falling screws, but also makes the appearance more neat and beautiful, which meets the requirements of modern industry for product appearance and safety.

[0027] Example:

[0028] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 provides further detailed description of this application.

[0029] This application discloses a high-efficiency conveying ball bearing guardrail, including guard plate 1 and balls 2. The guard plate 1 is symmetrically arranged. A support column 3 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the opposite face of adjacent guard plates 1. A screw 4 threadedly connected to the support column 3 is provided through the outer side of the guard plate 1. A number of pins 7 are evenly arranged on the top of adjacent guard plates 1. Multiple balls 2 are rotatably connected to the pins 7. The balls 2 on adjacent pins 7 are staggered.

[0030] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The ball 2 is a T-shaped mechanism including a contact part and a spacer part. The diameter of the contact part is larger than that of the spacer part. The spacer parts of the balls 2 on adjacent pins 7 are installed in opposite directions. This design allows the balls 2 to have a larger contact surface when in contact with the conveyed object, which can better support the conveyed object. At the same time, the spacer part can play a certain limiting role.

[0031] The ball bearings 2 on adjacent pins 7 are installed in opposite directions, which further optimizes the arrangement of the ball bearings 2, making the conveyed material more evenly stressed during rolling, reducing the deviation or damage of the conveyed material caused by uneven stress, and improving the stability of the conveying and the product qualification rate.

[0032] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The guardrail 1 is also connected to a cover 5 by a snap-fit, and the cover 5 is covered with screws 4. The cover 5 connected to the guardrail 1 by a snap-fit ​​and covered with screws 4 not only makes the guardrail look neater and more beautiful, but more importantly, it prevents the screws 4 from loosening and falling off due to long-term vibration or other factors. If the screws 4 fall off during the transportation process, they may damage the transported objects or even cause safety accidents. The cover 5 eliminates this hidden danger and improves the safety of the guardrail.

[0033] See Figure 2 The support column 3 has a hexagonal structure, and the inner wall of the guardrail is provided with a groove 6 that fits the end of the support column 3; this increases the friction and stability between the support column 3 and the guardrail, making it less likely for the support column 3 to rotate or shift when subjected to the pressure and friction of the conveyed material; and compared with other shapes such as circles, the hexagonal structure can provide greater support strength with the same amount of material, ensuring the overall stability of the guardrail structure and adapting to the conveying needs under different working conditions.

[0034] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The ball 2 is made of modified PP material and its outer surface is covered with modified TPE material. The main body of the ball 2 is modified lubricating and wear-resistant PP material, and the outer TPE has two material properties: wear-resistant, non-stick, or non-stick. This greatly satisfies the customer's choice for various working conditions, can extend the service life of the ball, and reduce the noise generated during rolling, creating a quieter working environment.

[0035] If the outer TPE is made with wear-resistant and non-stick properties, it can better protect the outer surface of the conveyed object and avoid scratch damage; if a non-stick modified soft rubber is selected according to the conveying conditions, it can meet the special needs of different conveyed objects and enhance the applicability of the guardrail.

[0036] The implementation principle of the high-efficiency conveying ball bearing 2 guardrail in this application embodiment is as follows: the ball bearing 2 is designed with a T-shaped structure, consisting of a contact part with a large diameter and a spacer part. The contact part is in direct contact with the conveyed item, providing a large support area and ensuring the stability of the item during the conveying process; the spacer part plays a limiting role, preventing the ball bearing 2 from moving excessively on the pin 7.

[0037] The ball bearings 2 on adjacent pins 7 are installed in opposite directions and are staggered. This arrangement allows each ball bearing 2 to evenly distribute the weight of the item during the rolling process, reducing the item's deviation or damage caused by uneven local force. It also effectively reduces the contact friction between the item and the ball bearings 2, improving conveying efficiency and product qualification rate.

[0038] This application covers the screws, making the product's external structure free of obvious connecting parts, resulting in a simpler and more aesthetically pleasing appearance. It also prevents exposed connecting parts from getting caught on items such as clothing or boxes containing goods.

[0039] This application's high-efficiency conveying ball bearing guardrail achieves safe, efficient, stable, and flexible item conveying functions through the coordinated work of its various components, meeting the protection and conveying requirements of various items such as lightweight film packaging, box frames, cigarette packs, batteries, and glass products in different conveying scenarios.

[0040] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
