Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a liftable chain conveyor, belonging to the technical field of chain conveyors. Background Technology
[0002] Chain conveyors are conveyors that use chains for traction and load-bearing, or use slats, metal mesh belts, and rollers mounted on the chains to carry materials. They can be classified into chain type, chain plate type, chain mesh type, and slat type, and are often combined with other conveyors and lifting devices to form production lines with various functions.
[0003] Chinese Patent (Publication No.: CN 208560722 U) discloses a chain conveyor, including a support frame and a belt. Support legs are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the support frame. Bearings are fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of both sides of the inner cavity of the support frame. Two sets of bearings are respectively fixedly connected to a first drive shaft and a second drive shaft. Gears are fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the first and second drive shafts. A conveyor chain meshes between the two gears. A conveyor belt is fixedly connected between the two sets of conveyor chains. A driven pulley is fixedly connected to the front end of the first drive shaft. This invention, through the coordinated use of the support frame, belt, support legs, bearings, first drive shaft, second drive shaft, gears, conveyor chain, conveyor belt, driven pulley, driving pulley, and servo motor, can support the conveyor belt, preventing the conveyor chain from sagging or jamming, thus better ensuring the stability of the device and guaranteeing its smooth and normal operation.
