Introduction of pipe chain conveyor accessories and conveying sprocket
In the transmission system of conveying machinery, sprocket is generally used for conveying, because the length of chain is generally longer than that in other fields. The sprockets used in some chain conveyors are strip-shaped teeth. Therefore, some people have designed strip-shaped chain worm sprockets for the driving wheel transportation of pipe chain conveyors. Because now pipe chain conveyors mostly use ring chain chains, they can not meet the needs of new chains.
At present, the sprocket of the pipe chain conveyor using the ring chain chain adopts the arc conical tooth sprocket. However, in the process of use, due to the entry of foreign matters into the pipe chain or the wear in use, the meshing accuracy between the teeth and the chain will become worse, and the chain is easy to fall off from the top of the sprocket, affecting the work of the conveyor.

The sprocket of the pipe chain conveyor includes a sprocket shaft, sprocket teeth and a U-shaped chain vortex formed between two adjacent sprocket teeth. The top of the sprocket teeth is arc-shaped, and two baffles are installed on both sides of the upper end of the sprocket teeth. The two baffles form a double concave groove clamping device with the upper end of the sprocket teeth. The number of sprocket teeth can be determined according to the tension. The greater the tension, the more sprocket teeth.
The chain is a ring structure formed by several chain links connected in series. The adjacent chain links are horizontal chain links, disk and vertical chain links respectively. The middle of the horizontal link is a hollow structure, and the middle of the vertical link is provided with a disc structure. The hollow structure in the middle of the horizontal link of the chain is clamped at the upper end of the sprocket, the double concave groove clamping device blocks the horizontal link, the vertical link is clamped in the chain vortex (corresponding to the width and depth of the vertical link), and a disc perpendicular to the vertical link is also installed on the vertical link. The disc cooperates with the chain to transport the materials from the inlet to the outlet, The disk is correspondingly clamped with each chain vortex, which can also play a role in positioning. The junction of the horizontal link and the vertical link is located at both ends of the sprocket, so the width of the chain vortex should be greater than the length of the vertical link. The horizontal chain link is at the top of the sprocket. When the horizontal chain link slides from the top of the sprocket during transportation, it is blocked by two baffles on both sides of the top of the sprocket and returns to the sprocket teeth again to prevent the chain from falling off during transmission, so as to stabilize the transmission.
