The chain 9 of the drive chain plate is placed in the conveying groove 4 to connect a certain number of chain plates to form the entire spiral chain. Under the drive of the motor, the chain 9 drives the spiral chain to move.

[0036] The first roller 5 is rotatably disposed between the support plate 1 and the first support leg 2. When the spiral chain turns, the first roller 5 slides in contact with the side of the conveying track to reduce friction.

[0037] The second roller 6 is rotatably connected to the first support leg 2. The second roller 6 slides in contact with the bottom of the conveyor track to reduce the friction between the bottom of the chain plate and the conveyor track.

[0038] The axis of the first roller 5 is perpendicular to the axis of the second roller 6.

[0039] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the first leg 2 and the second leg 3 are L-shaped, which facilitates their cooperation with the track on the conveyor, so that the chain plate moves along the track.

[0040] Furthermore, such as Figure 8 , 12 As shown, in this embodiment, a reinforcing plate 13 is provided at the lower end of the support plate 1 near the first leg 2, and a first U-shaped groove 131 is provided at the end of the reinforcing plate 13; a second U-shaped groove 21 is provided at the lower end of the first leg 2 corresponding to the first U-shaped groove 131.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 8 , 10 As shown, in this embodiment, it also includes: a connecting post 71 and a connecting cap 72; the upper end of the connecting post 71 is provided with an annular limiting step 711, which is used to limit the position of the first roller 5; the first roller 5 is sleeved on the connecting post 71, the connecting cap 72 is sleeved on the bottom of the connecting post 71, the annular limiting step 711 is in the first U-shaped groove 131, and the connecting cap 72 is in the second U-shaped limiting groove.

[0042] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 , 10 As shown in Figures 12 and 13, in this embodiment, an elastic plate 22 is provided on the first support leg 2, and a limiting protrusion 221 is provided on the elastic plate 22. The limiting protrusion 221 is used to limit the position of the connecting cap 72.

[0043] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 , 12 As shown in ~13, in this embodiment, a pair of first connecting holes 8 are provided on the inner side of the first support leg 2 and the second support leg 3, which are used to connect with the conveyor chain 9. The ends of the connecting shafts 91 at both ends of the chain 9 are respectively inserted into the corresponding first connecting holes 8, so as to connect the chain plates one by one.

[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment, a limiting groove 23 is provided on the first support leg 2, the limiting groove 23 passes through the first support leg 2, and the second roller 6 is disposed in the limiting groove 23 and protrudes from the limiting groove 23.

[0045] Furthermore, such as Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the first leg 2 is also provided with a second connecting hole 24, the second connecting hole 24 penetrates the limiting groove 23, a connecting pin 241 is inserted into the second connecting hole 24, and the connecting pin 241 penetrates the second roller 6.

[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first leg 2, the second leg 3, and the support plate 1 are integrally injection molded.

[0047] Working principle:

[0048] First, the first support leg 2, the second support leg 3, and the support plate 1 are integrally injection molded. Then, the first roller 5 is fitted onto the connecting column 71, and the bottom of the connecting column 71 is inserted into the connecting cap 72. Next, the upper end of the connecting column 71 is inserted into the first U-shaped positioning groove, and the connecting cap 72 is inserted into the second U-shaped positioning groove. During this process, the connecting cap 72 presses against the limiting protrusion 221, causing the limiting protrusion 221 to drive the elastic plate 22 to swing downwards. Finally, the connecting cap 72 is positioned in the second U-shaped groove 21, and the upper end of the connecting column 71 is positioned in the first U-shaped groove 131. The limiting protrusion 221 is reset under the elastic force of the elastic plate 22, preventing the connecting cap 72 from detaching from the second U-shaped groove 21. Then, the second roller 6 is placed into the limiting groove 23, and the connecting pin 241 is inserted. Finally, the chain plates are connected one by one using the conveyor chain 9.
