1 TARIFF INNOVATION IN CONVEYOR CENTERING STRUCTURE This invention enables the rotation of the belt during operation of industrial product conveyor systems. prevents the conveyor belt from slipping off its axis, ensuring it remains constantly fixed on its axis. It is related to innovation in the centering structure. THE KNOWN STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE; 10 Today's technology is used in various fields of industry and daily life, especially in production. facilities, transportation and logistics companies, mines and many other different areas. Industrial conveyor systems for transporting packaged or bulky loads. is used. The long transport distance of the conveyors used causes a number of 15 This causes problems to occur. During the long-distance movement of the conveyor belt, the load it carries may be uneven and due to both the uneven distribution and the slope of the land and ground structure where the conveyor belt is installed Due to various reasons, a known 20-degree deviation occurs where the conveyor belt shifts away from its center. That is the negative aspect. With current technology, preventing the conveyor belt from deviating from its center is crucial. Many different centering systems with varying working principles have been developed for various purposes, Some of these are protected by patent applications and are widely used in everyday life. is used. Developed and widely used centering systems are intended for They have worked successfully in that direction. However, during the operation of known centering systems, due to technical factors... Some negative aspects have been identified, both stemming from various sources and arising from the needs of daily life. 30 and improvements aimed at eliminating these shortcomings have become necessary. This has led to the discussion of the working principles of known centering systems and the derivations from these principles. The resulting negative consequences are as follows: 2 The working principle of centering systems is as follows: when the conveyor belt moves... There are carrier rollers that generate drive by rotating in a fixed position, enabling different numbers of rollers. The centering roller, positioned between the carrier rollers, is mounted on the conveyor chassis at a single point. It is fixed with a ball bearing. The conical and flat roller structures of the centering roller are attached to the conveyor belt. They are in contact. 5 If the conveyor belt deviates from its axis of rotation for various reasons, the belt... The tapered roller on one side of the centering roller applies too much pressure, affecting the other side. The load on the conical roller is reduced or completely eliminated. In this position, it is mounted onto the chassis at a single point. The stationary centering rollers, driven by the belt from the side they are pressed against, control the direction of belt rotation. It exhibits a circular rotation response by moving in that direction. 10 The circular rotational response originates from the bearing center, which is fixed at a single point on the chassis. For this reason, the circular motion of the centering rollers is at an angular angle different from the slippage of the belt. This occurs when the centering contacts the belt under load at an angle different from the belt's slip degree. The roller pulls the conveyor belt back to its axis, ensuring it sits centered. This 15 The centering action prevents the belt from slipping to either side and ensures the continuous movement of the conveyor belt. It ensures stable operation in the center. The inertia caused by the weight on the conveyor belt and the belt's rotational speed makes the belt rigid. This causes it to knock off its axis and then return to the axis with the same force. 20 In this case, the ball bearings and centering rollers of the centering system are damaged by each impact. is negatively affected. The rotation of centering systems used in known technology around the bearing axis The distances are determined by fixed metal supports. These types of supports are fixed in structure. 25 Because it is positioned with a source, metal-to-metal impacts occur at each exit of the belt from the center. This is due to the fact that the support surfaces are fixed, which allows the centering axis to be adjustable. It does not allow it. The centering distance is not adjustable for each conveyor belt and for every 30 centimeters carried on the belt. It allows for both de-centering and centering of the object at the same distance, whereas a conveyor belt... The centering distance should preferably be determined according to the type, working speed, and sensitivity of the object being transported. Its adjustability protects the belt's health and centering system, as well as the load being carried. It will ensure the safety of the objects. 35 3 Long-length stones are used today, especially in mining. Conveyor belts carrying heavy loads such as soil are being loaded irregularly. The load carried by conveyors is heavy and unstable, especially in mining areas. the way conveyor belts work involves carrying unevenly loaded stones, soil, etc. To prevent materials from spilling onto the floor, both sides of the tape are raised upwards. 5 They are operated by being positioned. These conveyor structures will perform centering. The rollers should operate in an upwardly lifted band form. Conical rollers of centering roller systems. The known technique used for lifting structures in a band-like manner is as follows. The upper part of the housing that holds the conical rollers in place allows for circular rotation of the centering system. 10 The bed is fixed in place, and the lower part has several angles that allow the angle of the conical roller to be determined. It is fixed in a mechanism consisting of a series of holes. To give the conical roller an angle, on the bottom... The fixing screw is mounted through the appropriate hole selected from the angled holes provided, according to preference, into the conical shape. The roller is made to gain an angle. However, since this process is achieved with angled, sequential holes, the angle sequence to be given to the conical roller... It is limited by the holes. The correct angle that must be given to the conical roller must be between two holes. In this situation, it is necessary to choose one of the two holes. In this case, it is fed into the conical roller. The correct angle required has not been given. A centering system with an incorrect angle will affect the conveyor. Because the belt was not centered comfortably at the desired level, the conical roller and conveyor belt 20 This causes it to wear out quickly due to uneven friction. ADVANTAGES OF THE INVENTION-BASED SYSTEM; The system described in this invention meets all the above-mentioned requirements and is an existing system. conveyor centering structure that eliminates disadvantages while providing many additional advantages It is an innovation. The distinctive feature of the system described in the invention is that the conveyor belt deviates from its working axis and 30 When the conveyor system is re-aligned, the alignment mechanism operates without knocking. without causing damage to the conveyor belt and the mechanism structure that constitutes the integrity of the system. It should be soft and comfortable without creating a snag, and its structure should allow for movement and alignment of the belt. 4 The distinctive feature of the system described in the invention is that the conveyor belt moves smoothly without impact. The way it recenters the band that deviates from the center through movement is similar to the fixed metal support in known techniques. Instead of the centering body working with a jerky, impacting motion, the working distance is adjustable. It is made with soft-structured stoppers. Thus, it is made without impact. In the centering operation, the integrity of the conveyor system and the structure of the centering system were not damaged. 5 He was prevented from seeing it. The distinctive feature of the system described in the invention is that the band emanating from the center returns to the center again. In its acquisition, the angle of movement of the centering conical rollers depends on the conveyor structure, conveyor operation 10 depending on factors such as speed, weight on the belt, and the degree of inclination of the conveyor's inclined side surface It can be adjusted at different angles. This allows it to rub against the conveyor belt at an angled position. Unnecessary strain on the working conical rollers is prevented, and the conical rollers are protected from deformation in a short time. This prevents damage to the conveyor belt caused by the conical rollers and their strain. The distinctive feature of the system described in the invention is that it retrieves the conveyor belt emanating from its center... angle adjustments that determine the working positions of the conical roller that ensures its alignment with the center Instead of being made by fixed-hole screw fastening, it is slid within a long slot bearing. This is done by tightening the support and fixing screws in the correct position. Thus, the conical 20 The angle position of the roller is adjusted to match the angle of the side sections of the conveyor belt. The conical shape allows for comfortable and relaxed operation without strain or difficulty in centering. Since the angle of the rollers is compatible with the tape, wear on the tape and conical roller is prevented during use. Their lifespans have been extended. DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION'S STRUCTURE; The system described in the invention is illustrated with various images, the descriptions of which are as follows: 30 Figure 1: View of the centering system in its level position. Figure 2: View of the centering system in the angled position of the conical rollers. Figure 3: Isometric view of an angled conical roller of the centering system. 35 The reference to the parts / components that constitute the system described in the figures is provided below. Their numbers, names, and brief descriptions are as follows. 1) Middle roll 2) Conical roller 3) Fixed axis screw 4) Vertical angle screw 5) Angle channel 10 6) Support screw 7) Support counter 8) Horizontal axis support screw 9) Horizontal axis wedge THE WORKING PRINCIPLE OF THE INVENTION'S STRUCTURE; During the operation of the industrial product conveyor, the conveyor belt operates at 20°C. To prevent the belt from deviating from its axis and to keep it fixed within its working axis, conveyor centering is necessary. The centering mechanism is mounted at specific intervals between the conveyor's fixed rollers. The mechanism's middle roller (1) contacts the middle part of the conveyor belt, at the ends of the belt If there is a slope, the conical rollers(2) can contact the slope at the ends of the belt in order to be in contact with the slope of the belt. It needs to be lifted up. 25 The fixed axis screw (3) and vertical angle screw (4) holding the conical roller (2) are loosened, the conical roller (2) It is adjusted to the angle of the conveyor belt by moving it manually. The vertical of the conical roller(2) The movement in the direction of the angle channel (5) takes place in the direction of the appropriate position on the belt axis. The conical roller(2) brought in can work in the appropriate position by remaining fixed at the angle it is in, fixed axis 30 screw(3) and vertical angle screw(4) are tightened. The vertical angle screw (4) and fixed axis screw (3) working inside the angle channel (5) drive the conical roller (2) It compresses but is insufficient to hold it steady against the loads to be applied to the conical roller(2). To prevent them from falling, the support screw(6) is tightened to make them rest on the conical roller(2). 35 6 Since the support screw(6) rests on the conical roller(2) in a perpendicular position, the conical roller(2) The applied load does not allow the conical roller (2) to change its position. Stop The screw(6) remains fixed in the position where it is tightened by tightening the counter-support(7). The length distance of the horizontal axis support screw(8) is the lateral distance of the centering system. It determines the level of operation in that direction. In case the conveyor belt deviates from its axis... The centering system rotates along the lateral axis by moving on a bearing that is fixed at a single point. The shock absorber at the end of the screw(8) rests against the horizontal axis wedge(9) without any impact. Once the setup settings are complete, the centering system rotates together with the conveyor 10 It is operating. Due to reasons such as uneven load on the conveyor belt and terrain structure. In case of belt displacement from the center, the conical rollers(2) rotate by contacting the conveyor belt. While putting more load on the side where the belt slides, the load on the conical roller (2) on the other side is reduced. The conical roller (2) with an excessive load on it is connected to the single 15 bearing in the direction of rotation of the belt. By rotating from a fixed point at the center, it applies pressure to the tape at an angle different from the direction of rotation of the tape. This allows the belt to return to its normal operating axis. The centering system... In its operation, the horizontal axis wedges (9) smooth the movement of the centering system, making it quiet and This ensures smooth operation. Fixed axis screw (3), vertical angle screw (4), angle channel (5), support screw (6), support channel (7) and conical rollers (2) adjusted by horizontal axis support screw (8) fully adjust the working conveyor belt Because it holds the conveyor belt precisely on its axis, it is difficult for it to shift from its center of operation. The distance the conveyor belt slides from the center of the workpiece has decreased, the distance the conveyor belt slides from the center has decreased. The system was quickly brought back to the center, ensuring it was quiet and vibration-free. 25
