Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coal conveyors, and in particular to a safe coal conveyor for coal mine transportation. Background Technology

[0002] Belt conveyors are indispensable key transportation equipment in coal mine production systems, responsible for continuously transporting mined coal from the working face to the surface or designated locations. In traditional belt conveyors, the rotating rollers driving the conveyor belt are prone to slight axial movement or deviation under high load and long-term continuous operation due to uneven force or vibration. This axial instability of the rotating rollers is one of the direct causes of the conveyor belt deviating from its preset running trajectory, i.e., the phenomenon of "belt misalignment." Once the conveyor belt deviates, its edges will come into contact with the rigid protective baffles on both sides of the conveyor frame, generating severe friction. This not only severely wears down or even tears the conveyor belt, significantly shortening its service life, but the heat generated by friction also poses a serious safety hazard in a coal dust-rich environment.

[0003] Furthermore, when it is necessary to replace worn conveyor belts or perform routine maintenance on the equipment, maintenance personnel must first remove the protective guards on both sides. Existing protective guards are usually installed by bolt fastening. The disassembly and assembly process not only requires carrying special tools and is cumbersome, but also has low work efficiency and safety risks in the confined space and poor lighting environment of underground coal mines, thus prolonging the equipment's downtime for maintenance. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a safe coal conveyor for coal mine transportation, aiming to improve the problems of the rotating rollers being prone to axial displacement, leading to belt misalignment and wear, as well as the cumbersome disassembly and assembly of the protective structure, low maintenance efficiency, and poor safety of the coal conveyor used for coal mine transportation.

[0006] The limiting mechanism includes symmetrically arranged limiting rings and a linkage mechanism for driving the limiting rings to synchronously adjust the spacing; the protective pad is a buffer structure disposed on the inner side of the protective plate; the limiting component includes a retractable third sliding rod and an actuation mechanism linked to the third sliding rod.

[0007] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism is located at both ends of the rotating roller; the protective pad is fixed on the inner side of the protective plate facing the conveyor belt; the fixing component is located on the base, and the protective plate is detachably locked to the fixing component by the limiting component. The third sliding rod of the limiting component is telescopically inserted through the fixing component and cooperates with another part of the fixing component.

[0008] Preferably, the limiting mechanism further includes a cylinder, a first connecting block, a first slide rail, and a second connecting block, and the linkage mechanism includes a first rotating block, a second rotating block, and a third rotating block; the cylinder drives the first connecting block, and through the linkage of the first rotating block, the second rotating block, and the third rotating block, the second connecting block sliding along the first slide rail moves synchronously with the third rotating block, so as to drive the limiting rings on both sides to move.

[0009] Preferably, the actuation mechanism includes a sliding block, a first sliding rod, and a second sliding rod; the first sliding rod is used to drive the second sliding rod to move, the second sliding rod cooperates with the sliding block to cause the sliding block to be displaced, and the sliding block is connected to the third sliding rod.

[0010] Preferably, the sliding block is provided with a sloped groove, and the end of the second sliding rod slides in the sloped groove to convert the movement of the second sliding rod into the lateral displacement of the sliding block.

[0011] Preferably, the actuation mechanism further includes a second slide rail, along which the sliding block slides.

[0012] Preferably, the actuation mechanism further includes a third fixing block, through which the first sliding rod passes and the second sliding rod is accommodated within the third fixing block.

[0013] Preferably, the fixing component includes a first fixing block and a second fixing block; the limiting component further includes a spring and a fixing plate; the third sliding rod passes through the second fixing block and is connected to the fixing plate, and its end is retractably inserted into the limiting hole of the first fixing block; the spring is sleeved on the third sliding rod and abuts against the second fixing block and the fixing plate.

[0014] Preferably, the bottom of the protective plate is provided with a positioning rod, which is slidably inserted into the base.

[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: In this invention, a limiting mechanism is installed to precisely and reliably limit the axial movement of the core rotating roller of the conveyor, effectively preventing the roller from shifting during operation and fundamentally solving the problem of conveyor belt misalignment caused by roller deviation. This structure avoids abnormal frictional heat generation caused by conveyor belt misalignment, reduces the risk of igniting coal dust in coal mine dust environments, and greatly enhances the overall operational safety of the machine.

[0016] In this invention, a protective pad is added to the inside of the protective plate to provide flexible cushioning protection for the conveyor belt. When the conveyor belt deviates slightly, the protective pad can effectively absorb the impact and reduce wear, avoiding rapid damage or tearing caused by direct contact between the edge of the conveyor belt and the hard machine body, thereby extending the service life of the conveyor belt and reducing maintenance costs.

[0028] Working Principle: When the new type of safe coal conveyor for coal mine transportation is in operation, motor 2 is started when coal needs to be transported. Motor 2 drives the rotating roller 8 to rotate. The friction between the rotating roller 8 and the conveyor belt 3 drives the conveyor belt 3 to circulate, thus transporting the coal. To prevent axial displacement of the rotating roller 8 during transport, cylinder 401 is started. The output end of cylinder 401 pushes or pulls the first connecting block 402. The first connecting block 402 drives the first rotating block 406 and the second rotating block 407, which are rotatably connected to it, to move. Through the linkage mechanism formed by the first rotating block 406, the second rotating block 407, and the third rotating block 408, the second connecting block 405 sliding on the first slide rail 404 and the third rotating block 408 move synchronously towards or away from each other, thereby causing the limiting rings 403 on both sides to tighten or loosen. When tightened, the inner wall of the limiting ring 403 tightly fits the end of the rotating roller 8, thus achieving stable axial limiting of the rotating roller 8. When the conveyor belt 3 is running... When a slight lateral deviation occurs, the edge of the conveyor belt 3 will contact the protective pad 10 on the inner side of the protective plate 5. The protective pad 10 provides cushioning protection for the conveyor belt 3, preventing it from being damaged by direct contact with the hard machine body. When it is necessary to disassemble or replace the protective plate 5, press down on the first sliding rod 901. The first sliding rod 901 drives the second sliding rod 903 in the third fixed block 902 to move downward. The end of the second sliding rod 903 slides in the inclined groove of the sliding block 905, converting the downward linear motion into the lateral sliding of the sliding block 905 along the second slide rail 904. The sliding block 905 drives the third sliding rod 906, which is fixedly connected to it, to slide laterally. While the third sliding rod 906 moves the fixed plate 908, it squeezes the spring 907 and causes its end to disengage from the limiting hole of the first fixed block 6, thus releasing the lock. At this time, slide the protective plate 5 upward so that the positioning rod at its bottom slides out of the base 1, thus completing the quick disassembly and replacement of the protective plate 5.
