Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of belt conveyors, and in particular to a belt conveyor head roller brush cleaner that reduces manpower and belt misalignment. Background Technology

[0002] During coal conveyor belt transportation, belt joints often require repair using repair strips or adhesives due to tears or other reasons. However, the repaired joints are often higher than the belt plane. When the joint reaches the head sweeper, traditional polyurethane sweepers can easily cause secondary damage to the raised joint, or even tear it apart, leading to equipment damage. To avoid this problem, the sweepers have to be removed in some areas, but this results in ineffective cleaning of coal dust and debris, significantly increasing manual cleaning workload and affecting environmental hygiene and operational efficiency.

[0003] While existing technologies offer simple structures, polyurethane sheet sweepers cause significant wear to belts, especially at joints. Roller brush sweepers, though reducing belt damage, typically require installation behind the machine head, resulting in limited cleaning effectiveness and leaving considerable coal dust residue requiring manual cleaning and higher maintenance costs. Furthermore, traditional roller brush sweepers often rely on electric power or additional roller chain drives, leading to complex structures, high costs, and limited widespread application. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a belt conveyor head roller brush cleaner that reduces manpower and belt misalignment. It solves the problems of existing head cleaners using polyurethane rubber sheets that easily damage the belt, and existing roller brush cleaners that are only installed at the belt position behind the head, still generating a lot of sanitation that requires manual cleaning, thus consuming manpower.

[0005] To achieve the aforementioned objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0008] The tensioning device maintains the conveyor belt tension at an appropriate level, ensuring it doesn't loosen or slip, thus improving the stability and efficiency of the belt conveyor. The drive wheel rotates in accordance with the conveyor belt's movement, facilitating the rotation of the brush roller. The brush roller cleans the conveyor belt surface, removing dust and debris, keeping the belt clean, and extending its lifespan and efficiency. The first bearing housing supports the brush roller and other rotating components, reducing friction loss, improving transmission efficiency, and extending the equipment's lifespan.

[0009] The conveyor belt body includes a drive shaft, a drive roller is mounted on the drive shaft, the drive wheel is matched with the drive roller, a conveyor belt is sleeved on the drive roller, the roller brush is matched with the conveyor belt, a hopper is provided under the conveyor belt, second bearing seats are provided on both sides of the drive roller, and the drive shaft is rotatably mounted between a pair of second bearing seats.

[0010] The drive shaft facilitates the connection of drive components, enabling power transmission to the conveyor belt and ensuring its smooth operation. The drive rollers drive the conveyor belt, providing it with greater power and stability. The conveyor belt carries materials and transports them to designated locations; its material and design directly affect conveying efficiency and material integrity. The hopper collects and discharges materials, preventing spillage and improving cleanliness and efficiency. The second bearing housing provides support, enhancing the stability of the drive shaft installation, reducing frictional wear, improving transmission efficiency, and extending the equipment's lifespan.

[0011] As an improvement, the clamping device can change the clamping force by adjusting the bolt.

[0012] As an improvement, both the drive wheel and drive shaft are made of wear-resistant materials.

[0013] As an improvement, both the roller brush and the conveyor belt are made of corrosion-resistant materials.

[0014] As an improvement, both the first and second bearing housings are made of high-precision bearings.

[0015] As an improvement, the hopper is designed to be inclined for the collection and discharge of materials after cleaning.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by adopting a nylon roller brush design, damage to the belt joint caused by traditional polyurethane cleaners is effectively avoided, significantly extending the service life of the belt. The innovative rubber wheel drive method eliminates the need for additional power supply or roller chain transmission, resulting in a simple structure and low cost. At the same time, the rubber wheel also has a correction function, which can reduce belt deviation and improper coal drop. The optimized installation position at the coal drop pipe at the machine head allows for direct cleaning of coal slag into the pipe, greatly reducing the amount of manual cleaning work.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a belt conveyor head brush cleaner that reduces manpower and belt misalignment is characterized by comprising: a cleaner body A and a belt conveyor body B;

[0027] The sweeper body A includes a pair of connecting seats, on which a clamping device 1 is installed. A pair of drive wheels 2 are located between the connecting seats, and a roller brush cylinder 3 is located between the drive wheels 2. The drive wheels 2 are mounted on the roller brush cylinder 3. A first bearing seat 4 is installed on the connecting seats, and the roller brush cylinder 3 is rotatably mounted between the pair of first bearing seats 4. The clamping device 1 is used to maintain the tension of the conveyor belt 7 at an appropriate level, ensuring that the conveyor belt 7 does not loosen or slip, thereby improving the stability and efficiency of the belt conveyor. The drive wheels 2 are designed to rotate according to the rotation of the conveyor belt 7, thus facilitating the rotation of the roller brush cylinder 3. The roller brush cylinder 3 is used to clean the surface of the conveyor belt 7, removing dust and debris adhering to it, keeping the conveyor belt 7 clean, and improving its service life and efficiency. The first bearing seats 4 support the roller brush cylinder 3 or other rotating components, reducing friction loss, improving transmission efficiency, and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0028] The conveyor body B includes a drive shaft 5, a drive roller 6 mounted on the drive shaft 5, a drive wheel 2 matched with the drive roller 6, a conveyor belt 7 fitted onto the drive roller 6, a roller brush 3 matched with the conveyor belt 7, and a hopper 8 below the conveyor belt 7. Second bearing seats 9 are located on both sides of the drive roller 6, and the drive shaft 5 is rotatably mounted between a pair of second bearing seats 9. The drive shaft 5 facilitates the connection of drive components, thereby facilitating the transmission of power to the conveyor belt 7 and ensuring its smooth operation. The drive roller 6 drives the conveyor belt 7, providing it with stronger power and stability. The conveyor belt 7 carries materials and transports them to designated locations; its material and design directly affect conveying efficiency and material integrity. The hopper 8 collects and discharges materials, preventing spillage and improving the cleanliness and efficiency of the conveying process. The second bearing seats 9 provide support, facilitating the stability of the drive shaft 5 installation, reducing frictional wear, improving transmission efficiency, and extending the equipment's service life.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the clamping device 1 can change the clamping force by adjusting the bolts. Both the drive wheel 2 and drive shaft 5 are made of wear-resistant materials.
