Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveyor technology, specifically to a reversible mobile belt conveyor. Background Technology
[0002] In modern industrial production, logistics, and mining, belt conveyors are widely used as efficient continuous conveying equipment for long-distance transportation of bulk materials and packaged goods. Through the cyclical rotation of the conveyor belt, they achieve stable material transport, greatly improving production efficiency and reducing labor costs. However, in practical applications, traditional belt conveyors are mostly fixed installations or unidirectional moving structures, making it difficult to meet the diverse operational needs under complex working conditions.
[0003] On the one hand, for fixed-installation belt conveyors, their conveying path and operating range are determined after installation. When production layout is adjusted or the starting or ending point of material conveying changes, flexible changes are difficult to make. Dismantling and reinstalling is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also incurs high modification costs, severely impacting production progress. For example, in mining, as the mining face advances, fixed belt conveyors cannot adapt to new material transportation needs and must be re-laid, increasing mining costs and time costs.
[0004] On the other hand, while existing unidirectional moving belt conveyors can adjust the conveying position to some extent, they can only move in one direction, limiting their flexibility and applicability. In scenarios where frequent switching of material conveying direction and bidirectional transportation operations are required between different areas, such as loading and unloading goods at port terminals and transferring goods between different cargo areas in warehousing and logistics, unidirectional moving belt conveyors cannot meet the needs of bidirectional operations. Multiple machines or manual transfer assistance are required, which undoubtedly increases equipment procurement costs, floor space, and manpower input.
[0005] Furthermore, existing belt conveyor drive systems often suffer from complex structures, low transmission efficiency, and high maintenance costs. Traditional drive systems are composed of multiple independent components, such as separate motors, reducers, and transmission mechanisms. This not only increases the difficulty of equipment installation and commissioning but also requires high precision in the fit between components, making them prone to failure. Once a component is damaged, the repair and replacement process is cumbersome, resulting in long downtime and affecting production continuity.
[0006] In summary, existing belt conveyors have significant shortcomings in terms of mobility, bidirectional operation capability, and the reliability and economy of their drive systems. Therefore, the existing technology needs further development. Utility Model Content

[0030] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples:
[0031] It should be noted that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc. shown in the accompanying drawings are only for the purpose of assisting those skilled in the art in understanding and reading the content disclosed in the specification, and are not intended to limit the conditions under which the present invention can be implemented.

[0032] Meanwhile, the terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "middle" and "one" used in this specification are only for clarity of description and are not intended to limit the scope of implementation of this utility model. Changes or adjustments to their relative relationships, without substantially altering the technical content, should also be considered as within the scope of implementation of this utility model.
[0033] According to an embodiment of this utility model, a reversible mobile belt conveyor is provided, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the invention includes a conveying component and a driving device for moving the conveying component. The conveying component is located on the driving device, which includes a cycloidal reducer 24, a transmission chain, a driving wheel pair 23, and a reversible switch. The cycloidal reducer 24 is connected to one end of the transmission chain, and the other end of the transmission chain is fitted onto the driving wheel pair 23. The reversible switch is signal-connected to the cycloidal reducer 24. The cycloidal reducer 24, through the transmission chain, enables the driving wheel pair 23 to drive the entire conveying component to move reversibly. This invention has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture and process, and is convenient to operate, use, and maintain. It greatly reduces mine production costs and maintenance expenses, improves production efficiency, and reduces the labor intensity of workers. In addition, the driving device of this invention uses a reversible switch for control, and a single drive can achieve forward and backward functions. Specifically, under the control of the reversible switch, the cycloidal reducer 24, the transmission chain, and the driving wheel pair 23 are driven, enabling the driving device to drive the entire conveying component to move reversibly. When the discharge port 18 outputs coal, the walking drive device moves the entire conveying assembly to the right below the discharge port 18, allowing the coal to fall into the conveying assembly and then be transported by the conveying assembly. When the discharge port 18 outputs gangue, the walking drive device moves the entire conveying assembly to the left, allowing the reversible mobile belt conveyor to avoid the discharge port 18 and achieve gangue discharge. Compared to the existing technology which generally has two sets of walking drive devices to realize forward and backward functions respectively, and the walking drive device is composed of a motor, reducer, and coupling, the walking drive device of this utility model adopts a single drive, which is composed of a cycloidal reducer 24, a transmission chain, and a drive walking wheel pair 23. It adopts reversible switch control, and a single drive can realize forward and backward functions.
[0034] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the transmission chain is a double-row roller chain 26. The double-row roller chain 26 meshes with the cycloidal reducer 24 and the drive wheelset 23 through chain links. Specifically, the output shaft of the cycloidal reducer 24 is connected to one end of the double-row roller chain 26, and the other end of the double-row roller chain 26 is fitted into the sprocket tooth groove of the drive wheelset 23. The torque output by the cycloidal reducer 24 is transmitted to the drive wheelset 23 through the double-row roller chain 26 to drive the drive wheelset 23.
[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the walking drive device also includes a guide rail 22, a connecting frame 20, and walking wheel pairs 21. The driving walking wheel pairs 23 and 21 are located at the bottom of the connecting frame 20, and are correspondingly arranged with the guide rail 22. The conveying assembly is located on the connecting frame 20, and the driving walking wheel pairs 23 and 21 are located at the bottom of the connecting frame 20. The walking wheel pairs 21 and 23 move along the guide rail 22, thereby driving the conveying assembly to move.
[0036] One end of the connecting frame 20 is provided with a mounting base, and the cycloidal reducer 24 is mounted on one end of the connecting frame 20 via the mounting base. Multiple mounting bases are provided, and they are symmetrically arranged. The symmetrically manufactured mounting bases of the cycloidal reducer 24 in the walking drive device allow for left-right interchangeability, offering strong applicability, a simple structure, and easy manufacturing, thus reducing production costs.
[0037] The drive wheelset 23 is provided with a wear-resistant coating. The wear-resistant coating is used to enhance the coefficient of friction and wear resistance between the transmission chain and the drive wheelset 23.
[0038] The conveying assembly includes a conveyor frame with rollers 11 at both ends. Each roller 11 is connected to a conveyor belt 16. Idler sets are mounted on the conveyor frame, and the conveyor belt 16 is mounted on the idler sets. Specifically, when coal is discharged from the discharge port 18, the driving device moves the entire conveying assembly to the right below the discharge port 18, causing the coal to fall into the conveyor belt 16. The coal is then transported by the conveyor belt 16 to the front end of the reversible mobile belt conveyor, entering the next section of the forward conveyor 25. At this time, only the conveyor belt 16 is driven; the driving device remains stationary. The main material of the conveyor frame is channel steel, and the conveyor frame and the connecting frame 20 are connected by columns 19. The idler sets include trough idler sets 13 and parallel idler sets 14.
[0039] The conveyor frame includes a head frame 12, an intermediate frame 15, and a tail frame 17, which are connected by a slotted connecting plate 27. Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the groove angle of the 27-type connecting plate is slightly larger than that of the channel steel groove. When tightened with bolts, it fits tightly with the channel steel groove and has an automatic locking and leveling function, ensuring no height difference occurs between the two sides of the channel steel at the frame connection. Specifically, as... Figure 4 As shown, one end of the tailstock is provided with an adjusting bolt 28, a roller slide 29 and a baffle 20 for mounting the roller 11.
[0040] The roller 11 is an electric roller and adopts a sliding structure, with tensioning achieved by adjusting bolt 28.
[0041] Many other changes and modifications can be made without departing from the concept and scope of this utility model. It should be understood that this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments, and the scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims.
