Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solid-liquid separation technology, and in particular to a horizontal screw centrifuge. Background Technology

[0002] Conveyor belts are commonly used for material transportation, and the function of guardrail supports is to prevent materials from falling and protect equipment and personnel safety. Guardrail supports are devices used to plan the path of the guardrail, ensuring that the guardrail remains stable in position during operation and is not easily loosened or deformed.

[0003] However, when the guardrail is impacted, the guardrail at the support frame is prone to rigid impact and stress concentration, which can lead to damage to the guardrail. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of the embodiments of this utility model and to briefly introduce some preferred embodiments. Some simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of this section, the abstract and the title of this utility model. Such simplifications or omissions shall not be used to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention is proposed.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution;

[0007] Conveyor belt guardrail brackets, including mounting brackets fixed to the conveyor belt;

[0008] The fixing base is provided with jaws, which clamp and hold a vertical rod;

[0009] The vertical rod is fitted with a fixing mechanism, which includes a vertical clamping port that clamps onto the vertical rod and a horizontal clamping port that is perpendicular to the axis of the vertical clamping port.

[0010] The horizontal clamping opening holds a support rod that supports the guardrail, and the end of the support rod that supports the guardrail is called the support end;

[0011] A receiving cavity is provided on the shaft end of the support end of the support rod;

[0012] The cavity is provided with a movable head, which is connected to the bottom of the cavity by a spring. The movable head extends out of the support guardrail from the shaft end of the support end.

[0013] The above design allows for adjustment of the support rod's position via vertical clamping ports, horizontal clamping ports, and jaws, facilitating support of guardrails of different heights or curvatures and providing greater flexibility. Secondly, the movable head, connected to the support rod via a spring, absorbs vibrations from the guardrail, preventing rigid impacts on the support rod when the guardrail is subjected to transported materials, thus extending the service life of both the guardrail and the conveyor belt guardrail bracket.

[0014] Preferably, a cylindrical pin is inserted into the end of the movable head extending from the receiving cavity, and a swing head is rotatably engaged with the cylindrical pin. This allows the user to conform to the guardrail when different curvatures need to be supported, and the swing head can absorb impacts from all directions of the guardrail by turning.

[0015] Preferably, the length of the swing head is greater than three times the diameter of the movable head. This increases the contact area between the movable head and the guardrail. A larger contact area disperses pressure, which helps to secure the guardrail and reduces stress concentration.

[0016] Preferably, a rubber pad is provided on the side of the swing head that is opposite to the outward extension of the movable head. The rubber pad reduces displacement caused by vibration or load.

[0017] Preferably, the swing head extends from both ends along the diameter of the movable head, and two elastic ropes are connected to the two end faces of the extended swing head. Both ropes are connected to the support rod. The elastic ropes can absorb the vibration of the guardrail, reduce the impact transmitted to the support structure, and protect the overall structure.

[0018] Preferably, the support rod is also equipped with two tensioners that tighten the two ropes respectively. This allows users to adjust the rope tension according to their needs, improve support stability, and adjust the spring compression to prevent the movable head from becoming too loose, thus ensuring the stability of the guardrail.

[0019] Preferably, both the vertical rod and the support rod are provided with anti-slip textures, which are arranged diagonally; the jaws, vertical clamping jaws, and horizontal clamping jaws are also provided with another type of diagonally arranged anti-slip texture. The diagonally arranged textures can increase friction, prevent slippage, ensure the stability of the support structure, and also enhance the clamping force to prevent slippage or loosening during clamping.

[0020] Preferably, the jaws clamp the vertical rod using threaded fasteners; the vertical clamping port clamps the vertical rod using vertical threaded fasteners; and the horizontal clamping port clamps the support rod using horizontal threaded fasteners. The entire system utilizes threaded fasteners for adjustable and secure clamping, facilitating installation, adjustment, and maintenance, and ensuring a reliable clamping action from the jaws, vertical clamping port, and horizontal clamping port.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] refer to Figures 1-4, a guardrail bracket for a conveyor belt, including a fixed seat 1 fixed to the conveyor belt.

[0032] The fixed base 1 is provided with jaws 11, which clamp and hold the vertical rod 2;

[0033] The vertical rod 2 is fitted with a fixing mechanism 3, which includes a vertical clamping port 31 clamped on the vertical rod 2 and a horizontal clamping port 32 arranged perpendicular to the axis of the vertical clamping port 31.

[0034] The horizontal clamping opening 32 clamps a support rod 4 that supports the guardrail. One end of the support rod 4 that supports the guardrail is called the support end.

[0035] A receiving cavity is provided on the shaft end of the support end of the support rod 4;

[0036] The cavity is provided with a movable head 41, which is connected to the bottom of the cavity by a spring. The movable head 41 extends out of the shaft end of the support end to support the guardrail.

[0037] The above design allows for adjustment of the support end position of the support rod 4 via the vertical clamping port 31, horizontal clamping port 32, and jaws 11, facilitating support of guardrails of different heights or curvatures and improving flexibility. Secondly, the movable head 41, connected to the support rod 4 via a spring, absorbs vibrations from the guardrail, preventing rigid impacts on the support rod 4 when the guardrail is subjected to transported materials, thus extending the service life of the guardrail and the conveyor belt guardrail bracket.

[0038] The movable head 41 has a cylindrical pin 43 inserted into one end extending from the receiving cavity. The cylindrical pin 43 is rotatably fitted with a swing head 42. This allows the user to conform to the guardrail when different curvatures need to be supported, and the swing head 42 can also absorb impacts from all directions of the guardrail by turning.

[0039] The length of the swing head 42 is more than three times the diameter of the movable head 41. This extends the contact area between the movable head 41 and the guardrail. The larger contact area disperses pressure, helps to secure the guardrail, and reduces stress concentration.

[0040] A rubber pad 44 is provided on the side of the swing head 42 that is opposite to the outward extension of the movable head 41. The rubber pad 44 reduces displacement caused by vibration or load.

[0041] In use, the position of the support end of the support rod 4 can be adjusted through the vertical clamping port 31, the horizontal clamping port 32 and the jaws 11, so that the support rod 4 can support guardrails of different heights or curvatures, and has better flexibility. The support rod 4 supports the guardrail through the movable head 41 connected by the spring, which can absorb the vibration from the guardrail and prevent the guardrail from being subjected to rigid impact when it is impacted by transported materials. The swing head 42 on the movable head 41 can also absorb the impact from all directions of the guardrail, extending the service life of the guardrail and the guardrail bracket for the conveyor belt.

[0042] Example 2

[0043] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment.

[0044] The swing head 42 extends from both ends of the movable head 41 in the diameter direction. Two elastic ropes 45 are connected to the two end faces of the swing head 42, and both ropes 45 are connected to the support rod 4. The elastic ropes 45 can absorb the vibration of the guardrail, reduce the impact transmitted to the support structure, and protect the overall structure.

[0045] The support rod 4 is also equipped with two tensioners that tighten the two ropes 45 respectively. This allows users to adjust the tension of the ropes 45 according to their needs, improve support stability, and adjust the spring tension to prevent the movable head 41 from becoming too loose, thus ensuring the stability of the guardrail.

[0046] Both the vertical rod 2 and the support rod 4 are provided with anti-slip textures, which are arranged diagonally. The jaws 11, the vertical clamping opening 31, and the horizontal clamping opening 32 are also provided with another type of diagonally arranged anti-slip texture. The diagonally arranged textures increase friction, prevent slippage, ensure the stability of the support structure, and also enhance clamping force to prevent slippage or loosening during clamping.

[0047] The jaws 11 clamp the vertical rod 2 using threaded fasteners; the vertical clamping port 31 clamps the vertical rod 2 using vertical threaded fasteners; and the horizontal clamping port 32 clamps the support rod 4 using horizontal threaded fasteners. The entire system utilizes threaded fasteners for adjustable and secure clamping, facilitating installation, adjustment, and maintenance, and ensuring a reliable clamping action from the jaws 11, vertical clamping port 31, and horizontal clamping port 32.

[0048] In use, the elastic rope 45 can absorb the vibration of the guardrail, reduce the impact transmitted to the support structure, and protect the overall structure. The two tensioners can adjust the tension of the rope 45 to improve the support stability and adjust the spring compression to prevent the movable head 41 from being too loose, thus ensuring the stability of the guardrail. The vertical rod 2 and the support rod 4 are both equipped with anti-slip textures arranged diagonally to increase friction and prevent slippage. The jaws 11, the vertical clamping mouth 31 and the horizontal clamping mouth 32 are also equipped with another diagonally arranged anti-slip texture inside to ensure the stability of the support structure and also to enhance the clamping force and prevent slippage or loosening when clamped.

[0049] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
