Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drive device technology, and in particular to a star wheel drive device for the shovel plate of a cantilever tunneling machine. Background Technology

[0002] In engineering fields such as coal mining and tunnel excavation, cantilever tunneling machines are core tunneling equipment. The star wheel drive device on its shovel plate plays a key role in transferring the coal and rock materials generated during tunneling to the scraper conveyor, which directly affects the overall efficiency and continuity of tunneling operations. Currently, the star wheel drive devices for cantilever tunneling machines on the market have many shortcomings in practical applications: On the one hand, the star wheel positions are mostly fixed, making it impossible to flexibly adjust the spacing according to the particle size of coal and rock materials during tunneling. When the particle size of the incoming material varies greatly, the material is prone to getting stuck between the star wheels or the conveying speed is slow, resulting in poor adaptability. On the other hand, the angle of the bucket baffle is fixed, making it difficult to form a suitable guide channel when facing different material volumes, causing the material to spill to both sides of the shovel during the conveying process and reducing the feeding efficiency.

[0003] Therefore, those skilled in the art urgently need to develop a star wheel drive device for the shovel of a cantilever tunneling machine. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a star wheel drive device for the shovel plate of a cantilever tunneling machine.

Star wheels are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the upper surface of the shovel plate. Both star wheels are rotatably connected to the shovel plate through star wheel shafts. A star wheel drive motor for controlling the rotation of the star wheel shafts is correspondingly provided at the bottom of the shovel plate. The upper surface of the shovel plate has a first arc-shaped groove symmetrically formed at the front end and a second arc-shaped groove symmetrically formed at the rear end. The centers of the two first arc-shaped grooves are far apart from each other, while the centers of the two second arc-shaped grooves are close together. The two straight baffles slide in contact with the adjacent first arc-shaped grooves, and the two star wheel shafts slide through the adjacent second arc-shaped grooves.

[0006] Preferably, the adjacent sides of the linear baffle and the curved baffle are connected by linear baffle shafts, and both linear baffle shafts are rotatably connected to the shovel. The bottom of the shovel is provided with a linear baffle drive motor for controlling the rotation of the linear baffle shafts.

[0007] Preferably, both sides of the bottom of the shovel plate are provided with sliders that are slidably connected to the first arc-shaped groove, and both sliders extend out of the first arc-shaped groove and are connected to the corresponding straight baffle.

[0018] Please see Figures 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment: a star wheel drive device for a cantilever tunneling machine shovel, including a shovel 1, a feed inlet 4 provided in the middle of the rear side of the shovel 1, which is adapted to the feed end of the tunneling machine scraper conveyor, and mounting blocks 5 provided at both ends of the rear side of the shovel 1 for connecting with the main body of the tunneling machine; curved baffles 2 connected to the shovel 1 are symmetrically provided on the left and right sides of the feed inlet 4, and straight baffles 3 are provided on the front side of both curved baffles 2, and the curved baffles 2 and the corresponding straight baffles 3 are connected.

[0019] Star wheels 6 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the upper surface of the shovel plate 1. Both star wheels 6 are rotatably connected to the shovel plate 1 through star wheel shafts. A star wheel drive motor 10 for controlling the rotation of the star wheel shafts is provided at the bottom of the shovel plate 1. The center positions of the two second arc-shaped slide grooves 12 coincide with the axis of the adjacent star wheel drive motor 10.

[0020] The upper surface of the shovel plate 1 has a first arc-shaped groove 7 symmetrically formed on the left and right front end, and a second arc-shaped groove 12 symmetrically formed on the left and right rear end of the upper surface of the shovel plate 1. The centers of the two first arc-shaped grooves 7 are far apart from each other, and the centers of the two second arc-shaped grooves 12 are close to each other. The two straight baffles 3 are in sliding contact with the adjacent first arc-shaped grooves 7. The two star wheel shafts are slidably connected through the adjacent second arc-shaped grooves 12. The bottom of the two star wheel shafts is provided with a locking block 13, and the other end of the two locking blocks 13 is connected to the shovel plate 1 to restrict the axial movement of the shaft.

[0021] Furthermore, the openings of the first arc-shaped chute 7 and the second arc-shaped chute 12 at the bottom of the shovel plate 1 are larger than the openings at the top, which can prevent materials from falling through the gaps.

[0022] Furthermore, the adjacent sides of the straight baffle 3 and the curved baffle 2 are connected to straight baffle shafts 9. The center positions of the two first arc-shaped sliding grooves 7 coincide with the axis of the adjacent straight baffle shafts 9. The two straight baffle shafts 9 are rotatably connected to the shovel plate 1. The bottom of the shovel plate 1 is equipped with a straight baffle drive motor that controls the rotation of the straight baffle shafts 9. By controlling the rotation of the straight baffle 3 through the straight baffle drive motor, the function of pushing material can be realized when shoveling material, thereby improving the feeding efficiency.

[0023] Furthermore, both sides of the bottom of the shovel plate 1 are provided with sliders 8 that are slidably connected to the first arc-shaped groove 7. Both sliders 8 extend out of the first arc-shaped groove 7 and are connected to the corresponding straight baffle 3.

[0024] Furthermore, the star wheel drive motor 10 is connected to the bottom of the shovel plate 1. The output end of the star wheel drive motor 10 is equipped with a sprocket, which is connected to the sprocket on the corresponding star wheel shaft via a chain 11, with a transmission ratio of 2:1. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the two star wheels 6, the corresponding locking block 13 is removed, and the star wheel shaft slides in the second arc-shaped groove 12. After adjustment, the locking block 13 is connected to the shovel plate 1. The position of the two star wheels 6 can be adjusted according to the size of the incoming material, thereby improving the feeding efficiency.

[0025] Furthermore, the bottom of the shovel plate 1 is detachably equipped with a protective box 14, and the star wheel drive motor 10, chain 11 and locking block 13 are all located inside the protective box 14.

[0026] Working principle of this utility model: First, use the mounting blocks 5 at both ends of the rear side of the shovel plate 1 to connect and fix the entire device to the main body of the tunneling machine. At the same time, ensure that the feed port 4 in the middle of the rear side of the shovel plate 1 is precisely aligned with the feed end of the tunneling machine scraper conveyor. Then, assemble the protective box 14 at the bottom of the shovel plate 1 to put the star wheel drive motor 10, chain 11 and locking block 13 in a protected state, and check the stability of the connection of each component. 2. To adapt to different incoming material conditions, first adjust the position of the star wheel 6 according to the size of the incoming material: remove the corresponding locking block 13, push the star wheel shaft to slide along the second arc-shaped slide groove 12 (because the center of the second arc-shaped slide groove coincides with the axis of the star wheel drive motor 10, the transmission structure position is adapted during the sliding process), after the star wheel 6 is adjusted to a suitable distance, re-fix the locking block 13 to limit the axial movement of the shaft; at the same time, start the linear baffle drive motor to drive the linear baffle shaft 9 to rotate, and the linear baffle 3 slides along the first arc-shaped slide groove 7 with the slider 8 (the center of the first arc-shaped slide groove coincides with the axis of the linear baffle shaft 9 to ensure stable adjustment of the baffle), so that the linear baffle 3 and the curved baffle 2 form a suitable guide channel to prepare for subsequent feeding. 3. Start the star wheel drive motor 10. The motor output is driven by the chain 11 through the sprocket (transmission ratio 2:1), which drives the star wheel shaft and star wheel 6 to rotate synchronously. Under the pushing action of the star wheel 6, the coal and rock material at the front end of the shovel 1 gathers towards the center along the channel formed by the curved baffle 2 and the straight baffle 3. At the same time, start the straight baffle drive motor, which drives the straight baffle shaft 9 to rotate inward to realize the function of pushing material. Finally, the material is transported to the tunneling machine scraper conveyor through the feed port 4 to complete the material transfer. IV. During operation, the protection box 14 protects the star wheel drive motor 10, chain 11 and other components, preventing dust and water mist from affecting the components. The locking block 13 continuously restricts the axial movement of the star wheel shaft, ensuring the stable rotation of the star wheel 6. The sliding fit between the slider 8 and the first arc-shaped slide groove 7, and the through sliding fit between the star wheel shaft and the second arc-shaped slide groove 12, ensure the flexible operation of each adjustment structure and maintain the continuous and reliable operation of the device.

[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
