Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mining equipment technology, and in particular to a longitudinal tear protection device. Background Technology
[0002] As a crucial piece of equipment in the main transportation system, coal mine belt conveyors already have mature and reliable operation monitoring and protection systems. Among these, longitudinal tear protection, as one of the six major protection systems, is widely used underground. The main purpose of this protection is to trigger an alarm and shutdown system when foreign object penetration, material leakage, or damage to the conveyor belt structure is detected, preventing longitudinal tears from expanding and causing equipment damage and production interruption.
[0003] Currently, wire rope triggering is mainly used underground, with light curtain sensing or load sensing in a few cases. Due to the frequent need for "frame pulling" at tunneling sites and the weak infrastructure at equipment installation sites, existing integrated longitudinal tear protection systems suffer from problems such as low equipment compatibility (due to various conveyor belt systems underground, such as 80-meter and 1-meter belts, depending on the freight volume and equipment operating environment), inconvenient installation and transportation (integrated longitudinal tear protection systems generally use wired signal transmission and are usually bulky), and frequent false alarms (false alarms due to improper material feeding, coal spillage, water and coal alarms due to factors such as excessive water supply or dust control).

[0030] The following is combined Figures 1-8 This invention describes a longitudinal tear protection device. The longitudinal tear protection device includes: a support 1, a retractable receiving plate 2, a photoelectric sensor 3, and at least two guide troughs 5.
[0031] The bracket 1 is located below the conveyor belt device; the retractable receiving plate 2 is mounted on the bracket 1; the photoelectric sensor 3 is mounted on the bracket 1 and has a transmitting end and a receiving end. It determines whether there is an object inside the bracket 1 by detecting whether the optical path between the transmitting end and the receiving end is continuous; the material guide troughs 5 are respectively set at both ends of the bracket 1 and are used to guide the material from both sides out of the optical path between the transmitting end and the receiving end.
[0032] Specifically, the bracket 1 serves as the overall support for the device, and is used to install and mount the retractable support plate 2, the photoelectric sensor 3, and the guide chute 5. The retractable support plate 2 is mounted on the bracket 1 and can extend and retract horizontally to accommodate conveyor belt devices of different sizes.
[0033] Specifically, the form of the photoelectric sensor 3 is not limited. It can have the transmitter and receiver positioned opposite each other at opposite ends of the bracket 1, or it can have the transmitter and receiver positioned at one end of the bracket. Light is reflected using a reflector (or reflector plate) to ensure that the light travels along the width of the conveyor belt. If there is no obstruction between the transmitter and receiver, a signal can be received normally, indicating that the conveyor belt device is functioning normally. If there is an obstruction between the transmitter and receiver, a signal cannot be received, indicating the presence of a foreign object, which suggests that the conveyor belt device is damaged, causing material or the conveyor belt to fall. In this case, the sensor sends an electrical signal to the conveyor belt control system to trigger an emergency stop and issue a warning.
[0034] At least two guide troughs 5 are provided, and at least one guide trough 5 is provided at each end of the support 1. The spilled material due to improper feeding is guided to both sides of the support 1 through the guide troughs 5, so as to avoid the problem of false detection caused by the sensor due to the spilled material on both sides of the conveyor belt device, thereby improving the detection accuracy.
[0035] This utility model provides a longitudinal tear protection device, comprising: a support 1, a retractable receiving plate 2, a photoelectric sensor 3, and at least two guide troughs 5. The support 1 is located below the conveyor belt device; the retractable receiving plate 2 is mounted on the support 1; the photoelectric sensor 3 is mounted on the support 1 and has a transmitting end and a receiving end, determining the presence of an object inside the support 1 by detecting whether the optical path between the transmitting end and the receiving end is continuous; the guide troughs 5 are respectively located at both ends of the support 1, used to guide the spilled material from both sides outwards from the outside of the optical path between the transmitting end and the receiving end. This utility model provides a longitudinal tear protection device that uses a retractable receiving plate 2, which can match conveyor belt devices of different sizes, improving equipment adaptability; it uses a photoelectric sensor 3 to detect whether there is material or conveyor belt falling at the bottom of the conveyor belt device, thereby achieving longitudinal tear protection; and it uses guide troughs 5 to guide the spilled material from both sides of the conveyor belt device to both sides of the support 1, avoiding false detections caused by the sensor detecting spilled material, thereby improving detection accuracy.
[0036] In one embodiment of this utility model, the longitudinal tear protection device further includes: a reflector 4, which is disposed at one end of the support 1. Both the emitting end and the receiving end are disposed at the other end of the support 1. Light emitted from the emitting end is reflected by the reflector 4 and received by the receiving end. Two guide channels 5 are provided, with one guide channel 5 located on top of the reflector 4 and the other guide channel 5 located on top of the photoelectric sensor 3. Specifically, the emitting end is typically an infrared LED or laser diode, capable of continuously emitting a modulated light pulse; this light beam illuminates a specially designed reflector, which is composed of many special prisms or microbead arrays, capable of accurately reflecting the incident light back along its original path; the receiving end uses a phototransistor / diode, capable of detecting the light signal returned from the reflector; the intensity of the received light signal is analyzed by the circuitry inside the sensor. If the receiver can stably receive sufficiently strong reflected light, the sensor output state is "no object" (usually off or low level); if the object being measured enters the optical path and blocks the light beam, the receiver cannot receive or can only receive a very weak light signal. The sensor detects this change and the output state switches to "object present" (usually on or high level).
[0037] Furthermore, the photoelectric sensor 3 adopts an integrated structure: the transmitter and receiver are integrated into the same housing and located at one end of the bracket 1; core components include: LED / laser tube, lens, photosensitive element, signal processing circuit, and output circuit; wiring typically involves three or four wires (positive power, negative power, output signal, and sometimes normally closed output). The reflector 4 is located at the other end of the bracket 1 and is composed of numerous pyramidal prisms or high-refractive-index glass microspheres. This structure ensures that light is reflected back to the source regardless of its angle of incidence. The reflector is usually a red or gray plastic plate with a honeycomb or dot matrix structure on its surface.
[0038] The photoelectric sensor 3 and reflector 4 with the above structure have the following advantages: 1. Long detection distance: Because the retroreflection efficiency of reflector 4 is very high and the light loss is small, its detection distance is much longer than that of diffuse reflection type, usually reaching several meters or even tens of meters.
[0039] 2. Strong anti-interference ability: A. Modulated light: The sensor emits modulated light pulses of a specific frequency (e.g., 38kHz), and only reflected light of the same frequency will be recognized by the receiver. This effectively filters out interference from ambient light (such as sunlight and artificial light).
[0040] B. Polarizing Filter: Many high-end models are equipped with a polarizing filter. The emitted light first passes through a polarizer to become polarized light, and the reflector 4 also has a polarizer at a specific angle. Only light that has returned correctly from the reflector 4 and whose polarization direction has been changed can pass through the receiver's polarizer. This can eliminate false triggering caused by specular reflection from smooth object surfaces (such as glass and metal).
[0041] 3. Installation and calibration are relatively convenient: simply align the sensor and reflector. This is more convenient than through-beam type (which requires separate installation and precise alignment of the transmitter and receiver), but more stable and reliable than diffuse reflection type.
[0042] 4. High cost performance: For medium and long distance detection, it is less expensive than through-beam sensors that require two cables.
[0043] Due to the limited space in the alleyway, photoelectric sensor 3 can be installed on the pedestrian side. This sensor is wired, and its signal transmission and power supply both rely on the existing control system. In order to avoid deploying devices that need to interact with the existing system on the non-pedestrian side, a reflector-type photoelectric sensor was selected.
[0044] In one embodiment of this utility model, the support 1 includes a first vertical beam 11, a second vertical beam 12, and a horizontal beam 13. The second vertical beam 12 is arranged parallel to the first vertical beam 11; the horizontal beam 13 is horizontally connected between the first vertical beam 11 and the second vertical beam 12. Specifically, the first vertical beam, the second vertical beam, and the horizontal beam 13 form an H-shaped support 1, thereby supporting the retractable receiving plate 2, the photoelectric sensor 3, the reflector 4, and the guide trough 5.
[0045] In one embodiment of this utility model, the telescopic receiving plate 2 includes: a first plate 21, a second plate 22, and a third plate 23. The second plate 22 is movably inserted into one end of the first plate 21; the third plate 23 is movably inserted into the other end of the first plate 21. Specifically, the telescopic receiving plate 2 is composed of three plates that are movably inserted together. By adjusting the insertion positions of the second plate 22 and the third plate 23 on the first plate 21, the telescopic length of the telescopic receiving plate 2 can be adjusted to meet the size requirements of different conveyor belt devices.
[0046] In one embodiment of this utility model, the longitudinal tear protection device further includes a first support box 61 and a second support box. The first support box 61 is detachably disposed at one end of the bracket 1, and the photoelectric sensor 3 is disposed in the first support box 61. The second support box is detachably disposed at the other end of the bracket 1 and is opposite to the first support box, and the reflector 4 is disposed in the second support box. In this embodiment, the photoelectric sensor 3 is installed through the first support box 61, and the reflector 4 is installed through the second support box. Furthermore, the first and second support boxes are detachably installed at both ends of the bracket 1, using a modular installation structure, which facilitates disassembly and transportation, and allows for on-site assembly. Compared to the integrated structure in the prior art, the detachable support box structure and the connection structure of the bracket 1 in this embodiment have advantages such as smaller size and easier installation and transportation. The first and second support boxes have the same structure.
[0047] In one embodiment of this utility model, the first support box 61 and the second support box are respectively provided with mounting grooves 64, and the retractable support plate 2 is inserted into the mounting grooves 64. In this embodiment, by providing mounting grooves 64 on the support boxes, the retractable support plate 2 can be installed by insertion, thereby fixing the retractable support plate 2 and realizing the detachable structure of the retractable support plate 2.
[0048] In one embodiment of this utility model, both the first support box 61 and the second support box have first positioning holes. The longitudinal tear protection device further includes a clamp 62 and a pin 63. The clamp 62 has a second positioning hole and is adapted to cooperate with the first positioning hole; the pin 63 is inserted into the first positioning hole and the second positioning hole in sequence to fix the first support box 61 and the second support box on the bracket 1. Specifically, both the first support box 61 and the second support box are fixed to the vertical beam of the bracket 1 by clamps 62, and the clamps 62 are fixed to the first support box 61 / second support box by the pins 63 passing through the first positioning hole and the second positioning hole in sequence.
[0049] In one embodiment of this utility model, the guide trough 5 includes a plurality of guide plates 51, which are arranged to form a trough structure. In this embodiment, the plurality of guide plates 51 are inclined and arranged to form a trough structure, thereby forming the guide trough 5.
[0050] In one embodiment of the present invention, the longitudinal tear protection device further includes two first overlapping members 7, which are respectively disposed on the top of the first vertical beam 11 and the second vertical beam 12, for connection with the conveyor belt device.
[0051] In one embodiment of the present invention, the longitudinal tear protection device further includes two second overlapping members 8, which are respectively disposed in the middle of the first vertical beam 11 and the second vertical beam 12, for connecting with the straight roller.

Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
