Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a servo motor tensioning mechanism for a pallet conveyor, belonging to the technical field of tensioning equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Chain conveyors are industrial equipment that use chains as the core transmission element to transport materials. Types include double-speed chain conveyors, top-plate chain conveyors, and plastic-steel chain conveyors. This equipment uses special chains to achieve large-scale transportation of materials such as pallets and large turnover boxes, and is widely used in production lines in industries such as electronics, food, and logistics.

[0003] Existing pallet chain conveyors use a drive motor and a pulley assembly as the core transmission carrier. The drive motor's power end and the pulley assembly drive the transmission chain to rotate, forming a closed-loop power drive system for pallet transportation. In existing pallet chain conveyors, the motor and pulley assembly are installed inside the conveyor. The pulley assembly includes a motor drive wheel, a drive shaft, a shaft drive wheel, and a chain drive wheel. The drive motor's power end has a motor drive wheel, and the motor drive wheel and the drive shaft's shaft drive wheel are connected by a synchronous belt to transmit the motor's driving force to the transmission chain.

[0004] To ensure effective transmission of the driving force from the drive motor, the synchronous belt needs to maintain appropriate tension. In existing technologies, a motor tensioning mechanism is used to adjust the tension of the synchronous belt. A conventional tensioning mechanism includes a motor mounting bracket and adjusting bolts. The motor mounting plate is slidably mounted on the frame, and the tension of the synchronous belt is adjusted by sliding the motor mounting plate along the conveyor frame using the adjusting bolts. Since the drive motor and motor mounting plate are both installed inside the frame, and the motor mounting plate needs to slide along the frame, the frame needs to provide space for sliding adjustment. This results in a large space occupied by the drive motor and tensioning mechanism, increasing the overall size of the chain conveyor and making it unsuitable for environments with limited space. Furthermore, the built-in tensioning mechanism requires limited operating space and is difficult to adjust when adjusting tension. Therefore, a servo motor tensioning mechanism for pallet conveyors is needed to solve the problems of large component footprint, unsuitability for space-constrained environments, and limited operating space and difficulty in adjusting tension in existing chain conveyors using built-in tensioning mechanisms.

[0008] Specifically, both the main drive wheel and the driven wheel are sprockets, and the transmission belt is a transmission chain.

[0009] Specifically, the mounting plate is fixedly installed on the frame near the driven wheel, one side of the adjustment plate is fixedly installed on the mounting plate, and the other side of the plate away from the mounting plate is fixedly installed with a servo motor.

[0011] Specifically, the mounting plate has an adjustment groove corresponding to the adjustment bracket, and an adjustment bolt mounting bracket is fixedly installed on the mounting plate adjacent to the adjustment groove. The adjustment bolt mounting bracket has mounting holes, through which the adjustment bolts pass, and the adjustment bolts on both sides of the adjustment bolt mounting bracket are threaded with fixing nuts. The adjustment bracket passes through the adjustment groove and extends to the side of the adjustment bolt mounting bracket, and the adjustment bracket has adjustment holes corresponding to the mounting holes. The adjustment bolts pass through the adjustment holes, and the adjustment bolts on both sides of the adjustment bracket are threaded with adjustment nuts.

[0012] Specifically, the fixing plate is an L-shaped plate structure. The adjustment frame is fixedly installed on the outer plate of one side of the L-shaped plate structure, and the servo motor is fixedly installed on the inner plate of the other side. The power end of the servo motor passes through the fixing plate and extends to the outer side of the plate. Reinforcing plates are connected between the two side plates of the L-shaped plate of the fixing plate.

[0013] Specifically, the number of adjusting bolts should be at least two.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1.

Adjusting bolts are installed on the mounting plate, and the adjusting plate is cantilevered and mounted to the mounting plate. This allows the servo motor to be cantilevered on the mounting plate and mounted on the conveyor frame. Adjusting nuts are threaded onto the adjusting bolts to adjust the position of the servo motor, thereby adjusting the distance between the main drive wheel on the power end of the servo motor and the driven wheel rotatably mounted on the frame, i.e., adjusting the tension of the transmission belt sleeved on the outside of the main drive wheel and the driven wheel. The servo motor tensioning mechanism of this pallet conveyor uses a cantilevered mounting of the adjusting plate on the frame to save installation space on the frame. It eliminates the need for pre-reserved sliding adjustment space on the frame, resulting in a compact overall structure for the conveyor, suitable for environments with limited space.

This arrangement ensures that the fixed plate is installed on the mounting plate, the adjustment frame is installed on the side of the plate facing the mounting plate, and the servo motor is installed on the other side of the plate, thus keeping the servo motor away from the mounting plate and not occupying the mounting space of the frame. Furthermore, by installing the servo motor away from the mounting plate, a larger adjustment range is provided during adjustment, facilitating operation and enabling rapid adjustment.

[0016] 3. Based on the foregoing, the mounting plate of this application has an adjustment groove corresponding to the adjustment bracket, and an adjustment bolt mounting bracket is fixedly installed on the mounting plate adjacent to the adjustment groove. The adjustment bolt is fixedly installed on the adjustment bolt mounting bracket by a fixing nut.

The adjustment bolt passes through the adjustment hole, and an adjustment nut is threaded onto the adjustment bolt located on both sides of the adjustment bracket. This allows the adjustment plate to be slidably installed on the adjustment bolt via the adjustment bracket. During the sliding process, the adjustment bracket is located in the adjustment groove of the mounting plate, and the number of adjustment bolts is at least two to ensure the sliding stability of the adjustment bracket during adjustment.
