Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveyor belt tensioning, specifically a tension adjustment device for a line marking machine conveyor belt. Background Technology
[0002] A line marking machine is a device used to accurately draw straight lines, curves, scales, or markings on the surface of workpieces such as sheets, pipes, and profiles. It is commonly used in woodworking, metal processing, and building materials production. It can automatically complete the line drawing according to preset parameters, which is more efficient and accurate than manual line drawing, reduces errors, and is suitable for the needs of drawing uniform markings or processing baselines on the surface of workpieces in mass production.
[0003] When the line marking machine is working, the workpiece to be marked is first placed on the conveyor belt, and the conveyor belt transports the workpiece to the positioning area at a preset speed. Then, the positioning mechanism will calibrate and align the workpiece to ensure that the workpiece position is stable and does not deviate. Subsequently, when the workpiece is transported to the marking area, the control system drives the marking execution component to accurately draw lines on the surface of the workpiece according to the preset line parameters. Finally, the workpiece with the marked lines is transported to the discharge end by the conveyor belt.
[0004] After prolonged use, the conveyor belt of a line marking machine may become loose due to tension, causing slippage during operation and resulting in inaccurate conveying. Therefore, a tension adjustment device for the conveyor belt of a line marking machine is proposed to address this problem. Utility Model Content

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5As shown in the embodiment of this utility model, a tension adjustment device for a line marking machine conveyor belt includes a line marking machine body 1; a drive motor 11 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the line marking machine body 1; a conveyor belt 12 is rotatably engaged at the output end of the drive motor 11; the conveyor belt 12 is rotatably connected in the middle of the line marking machine body 1; a pair of linear motors 13 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the line marking machine body 1; the linear motors 13 are located in the middle of the line marking machine body 1; a slide rail 14 is provided in the middle of the linear motors 13; the side wall of the linear motors 13 is rotatably connected to... The machine has a rotating shaft 15; a groove 16 is provided on the side wall of the rotating shaft 15; the groove 16 is engaged with the middle part of the conveyor belt 12; a support plate 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the marking machine body 1; during operation, the drive motor 11 is started and then the marking machine body 1 works. The drive motor 11 drives the conveyor belt 12 to rotate for a long time, and the conveyor belt 12 will generate tension. When the marking machine body 1 runs again, the rotation of the conveyor belt 12 and the drive motor 11 will slip. At this time, a pair of linear motors 13 can be started simultaneously, and then the linear motors 13 will drive the rotating shaft 15. 5 slides in the middle of the slide rail 14, and then the rotating shaft 15 moves towards the bottom of the marking machine body 1. The rotating shaft 15 will contact the bottom surface of the conveyor belt 12. The rotating shaft 15 can apply downward pressure to the bottom surface of the conveyor belt 12, so that the tension of the conveyor belt 12 is relaxed and pulled by the rotating shaft 15, which can tighten the tension of the conveyor belt 12. The groove 16 in the middle of the rotating shaft 15 can also contact the teeth on the inner side wall of the conveyor belt 12, so that the rotating shaft 15 and the conveyor belt 12 are in close contact. The drive motor 11 meshes with the teeth on the inner wall of the conveyor belt 12, which can further tighten the tension of the conveyor belt 12. The rotational engagement between the drive motor 11 and the drive motor 11 is tight; by synchronously starting a pair of linear motors 13, the rotating shaft 15 is driven to slide along the slide rail 14 and move towards the bottom of the line marking machine body 1. The downward pressure of the rotating shaft 15 on the bottom end of the conveyor belt 12 pulls the conveyor belt 12, actively tightening the slack conveyor belt 12, so that the conveyor belt 12 returns to normal tension, reducing the problem of slippage caused by excessive tension when the drive motor 11 drives the conveyor belt 12, ensuring that the drive motor 11 and the conveyor belt 12 are always stably meshed and transmitted, ensuring continuous line marking operation.
[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, a first fixing rod 2 is slidably connected to the top of the marking machine body 1; a shielding cloth 21 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the first fixing rod 2; a second fixing rod 22 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the shielding cloth 21; the second fixing rod 22 is slidably connected to the support plate 17; during operation, when the conveyor belt 12 is conveying items, contaminants and other items may enter the interior from the side of the conveyor belt 12. At this time, the first fixing rod 2 can be inserted into the top of the marking machine body 1, and then the second fixing rod 22 can be inserted into the side wall of the support plate 17, which can block the four corners of the conveyor belt 12, so that the items are blocked outside and will not enter the inner wall of the conveyor belt 12; the second fixing rod 22 can block the gaps at the four corners of the conveyor belt 12, forming a protective barrier, isolating contaminants outside the conveyor belt 12, reducing the intrusion of contaminants into the interior of the conveyor belt 12, and reducing contact between contaminants and the drive motor 11 and the groove 16, thus reducing the interference of contaminants with the normal rotation of the conveyor belt 12 after entering the interior of the conveyor belt 12.
[0026] like Figures 2 to 3 As shown, a cover plate 3 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the linear motor 13; a bolt 31 is threadedly connected to the side wall of the cover plate 3; the bolt 31 is threadedly connected to the side wall of the linear motor 13; during operation, when the linear motor 13 drives the rotating shaft 15 to slide in the middle of the slide rail 14, the cover plate 3 can be installed on the side of the linear motor 13, and then multiple sets of bolts 31 can be rotated to seal the side of the linear motor 13, which can prevent contaminants from entering the interior of the slide rail 14, and also make the rotating shaft 15 safe when sliding in the middle of the slide rail 14; through the threaded sealing design of the cover plate 3 and the bolts 31, the side of the linear motor 13 can be covered, which can reduce the entry of surrounding objects into the slide rail 14 when the rotating shaft 15 moves, causing the rotating shaft 15 to slide and jam, and further increase the safety protection of the surroundings when the rotating shaft 15 moves.
[0027] like Figure 5 As shown, a support rod 4 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the marking machine body 1; the support rod 4 is positioned below the conveyor belt 12; a pair of screws 41 are threadedly connected to the bottom end of the support rod 4; a fixing plate 42 is rotatably connected to the top end of the screws 41; a cleaning block 43 is fixedly connected to the top end of the fixing plate 42; during operation, after prolonged use, the surface of the conveyor belt 12 will accumulate a lot of contaminants. At this time, the pair of screws 41 can be rotated, which will then drive the cleaning block 43 to contact the bottom end of the conveyor belt 12. As the conveyor belt 12 rotates, the cleaning block 43 can continuously clean and wipe the surface of the conveyor belt 12. The distance between the cleaning block 43 and the conveyor belt 12 can also be adjusted by rotating the screws 41; the cleaning block 43 can continuously wipe the surface of the conveyor belt 12 while it is rotating, ensuring that the surface of the conveyor belt 12 remains clean, providing a flat conveying base for the items to be marked, and reducing the interference of contaminants on the marking.
[0028] like Figure 5As shown, a water pump 5 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the line marking machine body 1; the water pump 5 is connected to the support rod 4; multiple sets of nozzles 51 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the support rod 4; the nozzles 51 are inclined; during operation, the water pump 5 can be connected to the cleaning solution, and then the water pump 5 is started. The cleaning solution will be sprayed from the nozzles 51 onto the surface of the conveyor belt 12, and will work with the cleaning block 43 to wipe it; the spray from the nozzles 51 onto the surface of the conveyor belt 12 can dissolve stubborn pollutants, and with the wiping action of the cleaning block 43, the surface residue can be further removed, thus improving the cleaning effect.
[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, a flexible scraper 6 is fixedly attached to the side wall of the fixed plate 42; the flexible scraper 6 is inclined on the side wall of the fixed plate 42; during operation, when the contaminants on the surface of the conveyor belt 12 are stubborn, the flexible scraper 6 can scrape the stubborn stains on the surface of the conveyor belt 12; by the inclined angle of the flexible scraper 6 adhering to the surface of the conveyor belt 12, and cooperating with the movement of the conveyor belt 12 when it rotates, the hardened contaminants are peeled off from the surface of the conveyor belt 12, ensuring that there are no residual impurities on the surface of the conveyor belt 12, and further increasing the cleanliness of the surface of the conveyor belt 12.
[0030] Working principle: After the drive motor 11 is started, the line marking machine body 1 begins to operate. The drive motor 11 continuously drives the conveyor belt 12 to rotate, generating tension. When the line marking machine body 1 resumes operation, slippage occurs between the conveyor belt 12 and the drive motor 11. At this point, a pair of linear motors 13 can be started simultaneously. The linear motors 13 then drive the rotating shaft 15 to slide in the middle of the slide rail 14. The rotating shaft 15 then moves towards the bottom of the line marking machine body 1, contacting the bottom surface of the conveyor belt 12. The rotating shaft 15 applies pressure to the bottom surface of the conveyor belt 12. Pressure causes the tension of the conveyor belt 12 to relax, which is then pulled by the rotating shaft 15, thus tightening the tension of the conveyor belt 12. The groove 16 in the middle of the rotating shaft 15 can also contact the teeth on the inner wall of the conveyor belt 12, making the rotating shaft 15 and the conveyor belt 12 in close contact. The drive motor 11 meshes with the teeth on the inner wall of the conveyor belt 12, which further makes the rotational engagement between the conveyor belt 12 and the drive motor 11 tight. When the conveyor belt 12 is transporting items, contaminants and other items may enter the interior from the side of the conveyor belt 12. At this time, the first fixing rod 2 can be inserted into the top of the marking machine body 1. Then, the second fixing rod 22 is inserted into the side wall of the support plate 17, which can block the four corners of the conveyor belt 12, so that the items are blocked outside and will not enter the inner wall of the conveyor belt 12. When the linear motor 13 drives the rotating shaft 15 to slide in the middle of the slide rail 14, the cover plate 3 can be installed on the side of the linear motor 13. Then, the multiple sets of bolts 31 are rotated to seal the side of the linear motor 13, which can prevent contaminants from entering the interior of the slide rail 14 and also make the rotating shaft 15 safe when sliding in the middle of the slide rail 14. After the conveyor belt 12 has been used for a long time, a lot of dirt will accumulate on its surface. When the contaminant is removed, a pair of screws 41 can be rotated, which will cause the cleaning block 43 to contact the bottom of the conveyor belt 12. As the conveyor belt 12 rotates, the cleaning block 43 can continuously clean and wipe the surface of the conveyor belt 12. The distance between the cleaning block 43 and the conveyor belt 12 can also be adjusted by rotating the screws 41. The water pump 5 can be connected to the cleaning solution, and then the water pump 5 can be started. The cleaning solution will be sprayed from the nozzle 51 onto the surface of the conveyor belt 12 and wiped in conjunction with the cleaning block 43. When the contaminants on the surface of the conveyor belt 12 are stubborn, the flexible scraper 6 can scrape the stubborn stains on the surface of the conveyor belt 12.
