Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transmission belt technology, and more specifically, to a long-legged horseshoe-shaped mesh belt structure. Background Technology

[0002] Conveyor belts are mechanical devices that use static friction to continuously transport materials, driven by friction. They are widely used in industries such as metallurgy, food processing, chemicals, and logistics. They create a continuous material transport process between the feeding and unloading points, suitable not only for transporting bulk materials but also for handling packaged goods. They can be integrated with the process requirements of enterprise production flows to achieve efficient and rhythmic assembly line operations. Depending on the different usage environments and needs, the materials, structures, and types of conveyor belts vary significantly.

[0003] In existing technologies, horseshoe-shaped conveyor belts are widely used due to their unique connection structure. For example, patent publication number CN221478480U discloses an LF2 conveyor belt with a blocking device, including multiple parallel spaced reinforcing bars, a horseshoe-shaped connecting plate, a left spiral, a right spiral, and an anti-fall conveyor belt. This design and similar traditional horseshoe-shaped conveyor belts have drawbacks in practical applications: due to the compact design of the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate, it is prone to rubbing and interfering with the side walls, guide rails, or other components of the conveying equipment during operation. This frequent collision not only causes wear and deformation of the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate edges but also damages the equipment contact surfaces, significantly shortening the service life of the conveyor belt and equipment, while increasing maintenance costs and production downtime.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need in this field for a structurally optimized, anti-scratch long-legged horseshoe-shaped conveyor belt structure to improve the overall operational stability and durability. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a long-legged horseshoe-shaped mesh belt structure by adding an outwardly protruding extension structure below the main body of the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate. This design solves the problems of easy scraping and interference in existing horseshoe-shaped connecting plate structures, thereby improving service life.

[0006] A long-legged horseshoe-shaped mesh belt structure includes:

[0007] Metal mesh belt;

[0008] Multiple round bars are spaced apart along the width of the metal mesh belt and threaded through the metal mesh belt;

[0009] Horseshoe-shaped connecting plate bodies are respectively disposed at both ends of the round bar, used to fix the round bar and restrict the position of the metal mesh belt;

[0010] An outwardly extending structure is disposed below the side of the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body away from the metal mesh belt. The outwardly extending structure extends outward relative to the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body and includes, in sequence:

[0011] A vertical section extending obliquely downward from the main body of the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate;

[0012] A rounded transition section connecting to the end of the vertical section;

[0013] And the long leg segment formed by extending from the rounded corner transition segment;

[0014] The protruding extension structure provides clearance, collision protection, and guidance during the operation of the metal mesh belt. The coordinated connection between the round bar and the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate enhances the operational stability and structural strength of the metal mesh belt. The protruding extension structure achieves guidance, collision protection, and clearance functions without compromising the belt's flexible transmission performance.

[0015] In one embodiment, the vertical section and the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body are connected by a turning structure with an angle greater than 90° and less than 150°. Preferably, the turning structure angle is 100° to 120° to ensure that the protruding extension structure provides sufficient structural strength and stability while providing clearance. By setting a turning structure with an angle greater than 90° and less than 150° between the vertical section and the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body, stress concentration problems caused by excessive structural rigidity are avoided. At the same time, it ensures that the protruding extension structure has sufficient mechanical strength and deformation buffering capacity, improving the fatigue resistance of the mesh belt structure under high-frequency operating conditions. Compared with the traditional vertical bending design, it has better stress distribution and structural stability.

[0016] In one embodiment, the rounded transition section is an arc-shaped transition structure located at the end of the vertical section. The vertical section is connected to the long leg section through the arc-shaped transition structure, and the bending direction of the arc-shaped transition structure is away from the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body. By introducing an arc-shaped transition structure between the vertical section and the long leg section, the structure is subjected to more uniform stress, avoiding stress concentration, and further improving the fatigue resistance and impact resistance of the connection part. It is particularly suitable for high-speed operation or conveying scenarios with frequent vibration, extending the overall service life. Compared with the right-angle bending solution, the arc-shaped transition structure design provides a flexible transition, improving the overall structure's flexibility and adaptability.

[0017] In one embodiment, the bending angle of the arc-shaped transition structure is 80° to 120°, with 90° being more preferred. Controlling the bending angle between 80° and 120°, and particularly preferably 90°, ensures a smooth structural transition while balancing space utilization efficiency and structural strength distribution. This allows the protruding extension structure to maintain its guiding and buffering functions while possessing good processability, thus contributing to improved consistency and finished product qualification rate during mass production.

[0018] In one embodiment, the extension direction of the protruding extension structure is perpendicular to the direction in which the round bar is set. By setting the extension direction of the protruding extension structure to be perpendicular to the direction of the round bar, it is ensured that the protruding extension structure forms a clear physical barrier and guide path in the direction of the conveyor belt's operation, effectively preventing the conveyed material from deviating from the track or getting stuck, and providing stable lateral support in specific working conditions such as inclined conveying, making it more reliable in operation than metal conveyor belts without protruding extension structures.

[0019] In one embodiment, the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body has through holes at its upper and lower ends, and the through holes are used to pass through the round bar.

[0020] In one embodiment, the extension length of the long leg segment is greater than or equal to 3 mm, which is used to enhance bottom guiding stability and impact resistance during the operation of the metal mesh belt.

[0021] In one embodiment, the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body and the outwardly protruding extension structure are integrally bent and formed, which avoids stress concentration problems caused by welding connections and improves the overall connection strength and stability.

[0022] In one embodiment, the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate bodies disposed on two adjacent round bars have their central axes aligned with each other. By ensuring that the central axes of the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate bodies on two adjacent round bars remain consistent, precise positioning and overall symmetry of the structure are achieved. In actual operation, this effectively suppresses the risk of lateral vibration and misalignment of the metal mesh belt, ensuring the smooth operation of the conveying system. Compared with structural designs without axis control, this improves operational accuracy and assembly reliability.

[0023] In one embodiment, the metal mesh belt is one of K2 metal mesh belt, LF2 metal mesh belt, F2 metal mesh belt, and A2 metal mesh belt.

[0024] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model proposes a long-legged horseshoe-shaped mesh belt structure, including a metal mesh belt, multiple round bars, a horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body, and an outwardly protruding extension structure. By adding an outwardly protruding extension structure below the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body, the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body can maintain overall rigid support while possessing flexible avoidance and guiding functions. The vertical section forms a folding transition area between the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body and the outwardly protruding extension structure, which can provide space below the metal mesh belt during operation to avoid external equipment. The rounded corner transition section achieves a smooth connection between the vertical section and the long-legged section, avoiding stress concentration at the traditional right-angle bending structure, and effectively improving the overall fatigue resistance and forming stability. The long-legged section extends in the running direction to form a stable bottom support surface, which can provide guidance and restriction for the mesh belt's running trajectory, preventing deviation, shaking, or collision and wear with external structures during operation.

[0040] This embodiment proposes a long-legged horseshoe-shaped mesh belt structure, including:

[0041] 10 metal mesh belts;

[0042] Multiple round bars 20 are spaced apart along the width direction of the metal mesh belt 10 and are threaded through the metal mesh belt 10;

[0043] Horseshoe-shaped connecting plate bodies 30 are respectively disposed at both ends of the round bar 20, and are used to fix the round bar 20 and restrict the position of the metal mesh belt 10;

[0044] An outwardly extending structure 40 is disposed below the side of the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body 30 away from the metal mesh belt 10. The outwardly extending structure 40 extends outward relative to the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body 30 and includes, in sequence:

[0045] The vertical segment 41 extends obliquely downward from the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body 30;

[0046] A rounded transition section 42 connected to the end of the vertical section 41;

[0047] And the long leg segment 43 formed by extending the rounded transition segment 42;

[0048] The protruding extension structure 40 provides clearance, collision protection, and guidance during the operation of the metal mesh belt 10. The coordinated connection between the round bar 20 and the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body 30 enhances the operational stability and structural strength of the metal mesh belt 10. The protruding extension structure 40 achieves guidance, collision protection, and clearance functions without affecting the flexible transmission performance of the mesh belt.

[0049] The vertical section 41 is connected to the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body 30 via a turning structure 44. The angle of the turning structure 44 is greater than 90° and less than 150°. Preferably, the angle of the turning structure 44 is 100° to 120° to ensure that the protruding extension structure 40 provides sufficient structural strength and stability while providing clearance space. By setting a turning structure 44 with an angle greater than 90° and less than 150° between the vertical section 41 and the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body 30, stress concentration problems caused by excessive structural rigidity are avoided. At the same time, it ensures that the protruding extension structure 40 has sufficient mechanical strength and deformation buffering capacity, improving the fatigue resistance of the mesh belt structure under high-frequency operating conditions. Compared with the traditional vertical bending design, it has better stress distribution and structural stability.

[0050] The rounded transition section 42 is an arc-shaped transition structure 45 located at the end of the vertical section 41. The vertical section 41 is connected to the long leg section 43 through the arc-shaped transition structure 45. The bending direction of the arc-shaped transition structure 45 is away from the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body 30. By introducing the arc-shaped transition structure 45 between the vertical section 41 and the long leg section 43, the structure is subjected to more uniform stress, avoids stress concentration, and further improves the fatigue resistance and impact resistance of the connection part. It is particularly suitable for high-speed operation or conveying scenarios with frequent vibration, and extends the overall service life. Compared with the right-angle bending solution, the arc-shaped transition structure 45 design provides a flexible transition and improves the overall structure's flexibility and adaptability.

[0051] The bending angle of the arc-shaped transition structure 45 is 80° to 120°, with 90° being more preferred. Controlling the bending angle between 80° and 120°, and particularly preferably 90°, ensures a smooth structural transition while also considering space utilization efficiency and structural strength distribution. This allows the protruding extension structure 40 to maintain its guiding and buffering functions while possessing good processability; it also helps improve consistency and finished product qualification rate during mass production.

[0052] The extension direction of the protruding extension structure 40 is perpendicular to the setting direction of the round bar 20. By setting the extension direction of the protruding extension structure 40 to be perpendicular to the direction of the round bar 20, it is ensured that the protruding extension structure 40 forms a clear physical barrier and guide path in the running direction of the mesh belt, effectively preventing the conveyed material from deviating from the track or getting stuck, and providing stable lateral support in specific working conditions such as inclined conveying. Compared with the metal mesh belt 10 without the protruding extension structure 40, it has greater operational reliability.

[0053] The horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body 30 is provided with through holes 31 at its upper and lower ends, and the through holes 31 are used to pass through the round bar 20.

[0054] The extension length of the long leg section 43 is greater than or equal to 3mm, which is used to enhance the bottom guiding stability and impact resistance during the operation of the metal mesh belt 10.

[0055] The horseshoe-shaped connecting plate body 30 and the outwardly protruding extension structure 40 are integrally bent and formed, which avoids stress concentration problems caused by welding connections and improves the overall connection strength and stability.

[0056] The horseshoe-shaped connecting plate bodies 30, mounted on two adjacent round bars 20, have their central axes aligned with each other. By ensuring that the central axes of the horseshoe-shaped connecting plate bodies 30 on the two adjacent round bars 20 remain consistent, precise positioning and overall symmetry of the structure are achieved. In actual operation, this effectively suppresses the risk of lateral vibration and misalignment of the metal mesh belt 10, ensuring the smooth operation of the conveying system. Compared with a structure design without axis control, this improves operational accuracy and assembly reliability.

[0057] The metal mesh belt 10 is one of K2 metal mesh belt, LF2 metal mesh belt, F2 metal mesh belt, or A2 metal mesh belt.

[0058] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
