Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveyor technology, and in particular to a conveyor line for cold storage materials. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, when materials leave the cold storage, their surfaces are covered in ice due to refrigeration. As they are transported through the ambient temperature workshop via conveyor belts, this ice melts, causing liquid to drip onto the workshop floor. Furthermore, the low surface temperature of the materials leads to condensation. When transporting certain meat products, ice on their surfaces can become stuck on the conveyor belt, causing the conveyor rollers to jam and requiring a shutdown for cleaning. Using conventional conveyor belts would leave a large amount of water on the workshop floor, making cleaning difficult and negatively impacting the working environment. Therefore, improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a conveyor line for cold storage materials to address the above problems.

[0004] A conveyor line for cold storage materials includes a frame, several conveyor rollers, a power unit, and a synchronous toothed belt. The several conveyor rollers are mounted side-by-side at intervals on the frame and are movably connected to the frame. One end of each conveyor roller is provided with a driven gear disk, and one end of the conveyor roller located at the end of the frame is also provided with a driving gear disk. The synchronous toothed belt is sleeved on the driven gear disks of the several conveyor rollers. The power unit is mounted on the frame and located below the conveyor rollers. The power unit is engaged with the driving gear disk via a hinge. A water collection tank is detachably provided below each conveyor roller. The conveyor rollers are hollow and contain heating wires.

[0005] Preferably, the conveying roller includes a drum, a rotating shaft, a sleeve, an end cap, and a bearing. The two ends of the rotating shaft pass through the frame, and two bearings are sleeved on both ends of the rotating shaft and located inside the frame. One end of the sleeve is connected to the driven gear disk and the driving gear disk, and the other end of the sleeve is sleeved on the outside of the bearing. The two ends of the drum are movably connected to the bearings through the end caps. There is a gap between the rotating shaft and the inner wall of the drum, and the heating wire is spirally wound on the rotating shaft.

[0006] Preferably, the roller is made of stainless steel and has a Teflon coating on its surface.

[0007] Preferably, the water collection tank has a V-shaped cross-section and baffles at both ends.

[0008] Preferably, the power assembly includes a motor and a reducer, which are mounted side by side on the frame and located below the water collection tank. The output end of the motor is connected to the input end of the reducer, and the output end of the reducer is movably connected to the drive gear disk via a hinge, thereby driving the drive gear disk to rotate.

[0009] The advantages of this invention are: a water collection tank is set up to collect water dripping from transported objects, thus preventing water from polluting the workshop environment; at the same time, a heating wire is set up inside the conveyor roller to melt the ice accumulated between the conveyor rollers by heating the rollers, eliminating the need for manual cleaning and reducing labor intensity.

The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0015] like Figures 1-2As shown, a conveyor line for cold storage materials includes a frame 1, several conveyor rollers 2, a power unit 3, and a synchronous toothed belt 4. The several conveyor rollers 2 are mounted side-by-side at intervals on the frame 1 and are movably connected to the frame 1. One end of each of the several conveyor rollers 2 is provided with a driven gear disk 21, and the end of the conveyor roller 2 located at the end of the frame 1 is also provided with a driving gear disk 22. The synchronous toothed belt 4 is sleeved on the driven gear disks 21 of the several conveyor rollers 2. The power unit 3 is mounted on the frame 1 and located below the conveyor rollers 2. The power unit 3 is engaged with the driving gear disk 22 through a hinge 31. A water collection tank 5 is detachably provided below each conveyor roller 2. The conveyor roller 2 is hollow and a heating wire 6 is provided inside the conveyor roller 2. Specifically, the frame 1 serves as a support, and several conveyor rollers 2 are movably mounted side-by-side on the frame 1. To achieve synchronous rotation of the conveyor rollers 2 and convey materials, a synchronous toothed belt 4 is used in conjunction with a driven gear disc 21 at one end of the conveyor roller 2. This allows the conveyor rollers 2 to rotate synchronously and convey materials. A drive gear disc 22 is also provided at the end of the conveyor roller 2 at the feed end of the frame 1. The drive gear disc 22 meshes with the output end of the power assembly 3 via a hinge 31. Under the action of the power assembly 3, the conveyor roller 2 located at the feed end of the frame 1 begins to rotate. When one conveyor roller 2 rotates, the remaining conveyor rollers 2 rotate synchronously under the drive of the synchronous toothed belt 4. To prevent dripping when conveying refrigerated materials, a water collection tank 5 is installed below the frame 1 to collect the water dripping from the conveyed materials, preventing it from falling onto the ground and polluting the workshop environment. Simultaneously, ice on the materials can easily get stuck between the two conveyor rollers 2 during material conveying. Excessive ice accumulation can cause the conveyor rollers 2 to jam, requiring periodic shutdowns for cleaning. Manual cleaning is extremely inconvenient, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. By installing heating wires inside the conveyor rollers 2, the ice between the rollers can be melted, eliminating the need for manual cleaning, greatly reducing labor intensity, and improving operational efficiency.

[0016] like Figure 2As shown, the conveyor roller 2 includes a roller 23, a rotating shaft 24, a sleeve 25, an end cap 26, and bearings 27. The rotating shaft 24 passes through the frame 1 at both ends. Two bearings 27 are sleeved on both ends of the rotating shaft 24 and located inside the frame 1. One end of the sleeve 25 is connected to the driven gear disk 21 and the driving gear disk 22, and the other end of the sleeve 25 is sleeved on the outside of the bearings 27. The roller 23 is movably connected to the bearings 27 at both ends through the end cap 26. There is a gap between the rotating shaft 24 and the inner wall of the roller 23. The heating wire 6 is spirally wound on the rotating shaft 24. Specifically, in this design, the rotating shaft 24 passes through the frame 1 at both ends. When the conveyor roller 2 rotates, the rotating shaft 24 remains stationary. Only the roller 23 rotates, while the rotating shaft 24 does not rotate, which prevents the heating wire 6 sleeved on it from rotating and causing knots. Both ends of the roller 23 are sealed by end caps 26 to prevent moisture from entering. The bearing 27 is a sealed bearing to improve the internal sealing of the conveyor roller 2 and prevent moisture from entering and corroding the heating wire 6. The sleeve 25 plays a transmission role, transmitting the rotational speed from the driven gear disk 21 to the roller 23. It should be noted that only the end of the conveyor roller 2 located at the feed end of the frame 1 integrates both the driven gear disk 21 and the driving gear disk 22. That is, the driven gear disk 21 and the driving gear disk 22 are sleeved on the sleeve 25 at the end. The sleeves 25 of the other conveyor rollers 2 are only connected to the driven gear disk 21 to realize transmission.

[0017] Specifically, the roller 23 is made of stainless steel and coated with Teflon to prevent ice from sticking to the roller 23 due to the low temperature of the transported object.

[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, the cross-section of the water collection tank 5 is V-shaped, which concentrates the collected liquid, and baffles 51 are provided at both ends to prevent the liquid from overflowing and facilitate centralized treatment.

[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, the power assembly 3 includes a motor 32 and a reducer 33. The motor 32 and reducer 33 are mounted side-by-side on the frame 1, located below the water collection tank 5. The output end of the motor 32 is connected to the input end of the reducer 33, and the output end of the reducer 33 is movably connected to the drive gear disk 22 via a hinge 31, driving the drive gear disk 22 to rotate. Specifically, the reducer 33, in conjunction with the motor 32, facilitates the adjustment of the speed to the required range of the equipment and reduces impact load.

[0020] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
