AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing air cushion conveyors suffer from insufficient tail tension stroke during long-distance transport, severe belt tension fluctuations, difficulty in cleaning accumulated debris, and poor heat dissipation of transition rollers, all of which affect equipment safety and production efficiency.

Method used

It adopts a car-type tensioning device, combined with a movable section and a fixed section guide rail structure, to achieve a wide range of tension adjustment; it is equipped with a sweeper and scraper device to automatically remove debris; and it uses a wear-resistant transition plate to replace the transition idler roller, reducing friction and temperature risks.

Benefits of technology

It achieves a wide tension adjustment range, small tension fluctuations, automatic material removal, improved equipment safety and production efficiency, and reduced manual maintenance costs.

Abstract

This utility model discloses a tail structure for an air cushion conveyor. A tail movable section is inserted into the tail end of a fixed tail section. A tail cleaning section is connected to the tail end of the movable tail section, and a tail shaft section is connected to the tail end of the cleaning section. A tail roller is located within the tail shaft section. The lower return belt passes over the tail roller, reverses direction, and becomes the upper carrying belt. Rollers are located at the bottom of the movable tail section and the cleaning tail section, supported by a ground rail extending along the length of the conveyor. A tensioning frame is located behind the tail shaft section, and a steel wire rope is connected to the tail end of the tail shaft section. The steel wire rope passes over a pulley on the tensioning frame and is suspended from the top of a counterweight block. This air cushion conveyor's tail structure features a large tension adjustment range, minimal tension fluctuation impact, and automatic removal of accumulated material at the tail.
