Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of conveyor belt technology, specifically relating to a foldable conveyor belt guide device. Background Technology

[0002] Conveyor belts are highly efficient material handling equipment in modern industry, widely used in mines, ports, factories, and other settings. They consist of the conveyor belt body, drive unit, idlers, and other components. A motor drives the rollers to rotate, causing the conveyor belt to circulate and achieve continuous material transport.

[0003] During operation, conveyor belts are prone to deviation due to various factors. The belt alignment device is a key device designed to solve this problem. Traditional belt alignment devices are bulky and have a fixed structure, making it impossible to flexibly adjust their position according to the on-site working conditions. They require special hoisting equipment for transportation and multiple people to work together to fix the base and calibrate the angle during installation, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. When not in use, they require separate warehouse space, and because their structure is non-foldable, stacking them can easily lead to component deformation, increasing storage and maintenance costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a foldable conveyor belt correction device, which aims to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the folding assembly further includes a pin slidably connected to the side wall of the connecting block. The pin passes through the connecting block and is inserted into the side wall of the connecting rod, and the side wall of the connecting rod has a slot.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the folding assembly further includes a limiting groove formed in the side wall of the base, the slide rod passing through the limiting groove, and a fixing plate fixedly connected to the side wall of the base.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the correction assembly further includes an adjustment block threadedly connected to the side wall of the knob screw, a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the center of the adjustment block, and a differential wheel rotatably connected to the side wall of the rotating shaft.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the correction assembly further includes a handle fixedly connected to the side wall of the slider, and the handles are symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the slider.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the nuts are symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the support arm, and the nuts are threadedly connected to the side wall of the knob screw.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the connecting block, connecting rod, roller and pin are symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the base.

[0024] Example

[0025] Reference Figure 1-4 This is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides a foldable conveyor belt guide device, comprising:

[0026] The folding assembly 100 includes a base 101, a connecting block 102 fixedly connected to the side wall of the base 101, a connecting rod 103 rotatably connected to the side wall of the connecting block 102, and a roller 104 rotatably connected to the side wall of the connecting rod 103.

[0027] The correction assembly 200 includes a slider 201 slidably connected to the side wall of the base 101, a support arm 202 rotatably connected to the center of the slider 201, a slide rod 208 threadedly connected to the side wall of the slider 201, a knob screw 203 rotatably connected to the side wall of the support arm 202, and a nut 204 threadedly connected to the side wall of the knob screw 203.

[0028] Specifically, the connecting block 102 is fixed to the side wall of the base 101. The connecting block 102 has three holes for the rotation and limiting of the connecting rod 103. The two ends of the roller 104 are rotatably connected to the side wall of the connecting rod 103 to provide support for the bottom of the conveyor belt and prevent it from contacting the body of the guide device and causing friction. The slider 201 is slidably connected to the limiting groove 106 opened in the side wall of the base 101 through the slide rod 208. By tightening the slide rod 208, it can be fixed at a suitable distance to adapt to the width of the conveyor belt. The support arm 202 is rotatably connected to the inside of the slider 201 through the bearing. The knob screw 203 passes through the groove opened in the support arm 202 and is fixed by the nut 204. By adjusting the nut 204, the knob screw 203 can be adjusted.

[0029] The folding assembly 100 also includes a pin 105 that is slidably connected to the side wall of the connecting block 102. The pin 105 passes through the connecting block 102 and is inserted into the side wall of the connecting rod 103. The side wall of the connecting rod 103 has a slot.

[0030] Furthermore, there are two pins 105, which are slidably connected in the groove of the connecting block 102 and inserted into the slot of the connecting rod 103, to fix the connecting rod 103 at different angles so that it remains stable during operation and in the storage state.

[0031] The folding assembly 100 also includes a limiting groove 106 formed on the side wall of the base 101, a slide bar 208 passing through the limiting groove 106, and a fixing plate 107 fixedly connected to the side wall of the base 101.

[0032] Preferably, there are two slide bars 208, which pass through the limiting groove 106 and are fixed on the slider 201, so that the slider 201 can move under the limitation of the limiting groove 106 to adapt to different conveyor belt widths. The fixing plate 107 is fixed on the side wall of the base 101 and has a fixing hole for fixing the folding component 100 under the conveyor belt so that it does not move with the operation of the conveyor belt during operation.

[0033] The correction assembly 200 also includes a handle 209 fixedly connected to the side wall of the slider 201, and the handles 209 are symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the slider 201;

[0034] The correction assembly 200 also includes an adjustment block 205 threaded to the side wall of the knob screw 203, a rotating shaft 206 rotatably connected to the center of the adjustment block 205, and a differential wheel 207 rotatably connected to the side wall of the rotating shaft 206.

[0035] It should be noted that the handle 209 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the slider 201, facilitating the pulling of the slider 201 to accommodate different conveyor belt widths and making it convenient for workers to transport during storage. The end of the knob screw 203 is connected to the adjusting block 205, and the side wall of the adjusting block 205 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 206. The differential wheel 207 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the rotating shaft 206. By adjusting the knob screw 203, the differential wheel 207 is adjusted accordingly.

[0036] In use, pull out the pin 105 to extend the connecting rod 103 to both sides of the base 101 to a suitable angle, then insert the pin 105 to fix it. Pull the knob screw 203 upward to unfold the correction component 200. After placing the main body under the conveyor belt, fix it by connecting the fixing plate 107 with screws and other accessories. After loosening the nuts 204 on both sides of the support arm 202, adjust the differential wheel 207 to a suitable position by turning the knob screw 203, and then tighten the nuts 204 to start the correction work.

[0037] In summary, the modular folding design significantly reduces the overall structural volume of the alignment components after folding, allowing for easy adaptation even in confined spaces. Installation can be completed without modifying existing production lines. In the folded state, it can be easily handled, unfolded, and stored by a single person. Through the structural design of sliders, rods, and limiting grooves, it can quickly adapt to conveyor belts of different sizes, exhibiting strong adaptability and high deployment efficiency in mobile operation scenarios. After folding, it can be stacked in multiple layers, significantly saving storage space and improving transportation efficiency. The base also features a protective design, with the folded design protecting internal parts and reducing component wear.
