Definitions
- the present invention relates to a joining device for conveyor belts for connecting ends of a conveyor belt.
- conveyor belt will, by convention, in the present description, both the conveyor belt and belt direction.
- Conveyor belts also known as conveyor belts, are known to transport different materials or products, such as coal, ores, industrial or agricultural products.
- These conveyor belts consist of strips made of a reinforced elastomer, or an armed synthetic material, of an appropriate length and width, the ends of which must be connected together, before assembly, or after mounting, on support and driving devices comprising return rollers and idler rollers. Often these devices also comprise tensioning members, for the purpose of tightening the conveyor belt.
- vulcanization is used when the web is made of a reinforced vulcanizable elastomer. After preparation work to create in each end complementary profiles that apply to each other when bringing said ends closer, the vulcanization is carried out with input of heat and pressure as is well known. A variant of vulcanization is cold bonding.
- connection means consists in using U-shaped clips cut in metal strip, which clips comprise upper plates and lower plates connected by knuckles, these clips being fixed in two series to mounted on each of the ends of the conveyor belt to be connected, so that the knuckles protrude and that those of one series can be interwoven between the knuckles of the other series, a connecting rod and hinge being then passed to the The interior of the knuckles is nested so as to connect the two ends thus forming a kind of hinge.
- Known means used to secure the staples on the conveyor belt ends consist of rod attachment means such as spikes, rivets and screws.
- These devices comprise an upper plate and a lower plate, possibly connected by a central part.
- These lower and upper plates have a spacing adapted to engage the respective end of a conveyor belt, by making it come approximately abutting against the central portion, or in the case where the connecting device does not have a central portion. , against a spacer provided for this purpose during assembly, then removed later.
- these connecting devices comprise two pairs of fixing wings vis-a-vis, the ends of the conveyor belt being introduced respectively between two wings of the same pair.
- the fixing of the lower and upper parts forming a connecting plate on the ends of the conveyor belt is generally carried out by means of rivets, spikes, crampons, screw-nut systems, or by cold gluing or by flat vulcanization. wings against the outer flat surfaces of the conveyor belt engaged between the wings.
- These joining devices are made of a flexible and elastic material, for example vulcanized rubber, or a synthetic material such as polyurethane and they generally comprise an embedded reinforcement.
- the proposed junction devices are generally made of a flexible and elastic material in which is embedded a reinforcement, for example textile, having a stretch in the longitudinal direction.
- the longitudinal direction is by convention and for the convenience and clarity of the disclosure throughout the present description the longitudinal direction of the conveyor, and also applies to the operating device as it should be mounted on the conveyor belt.
- the transverse direction is the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction thus defined, whatever the dimensions of the splicing device considered in isolation.
- This extensibility of the reinforcements of this kind of joining devices in the longitudinal direction is intended to allow the operating devices mounted on the conveyor belts, to cross repeatedly, without wear or excessive fatigue, resulting in rapid deterioration, the curved parts the conveyor belt path, that is, bypassing the drive rollers, idler rollers and idler rollers.
- the upper part of the junction devices undergoes a force while their lower part (that is to say the one facing the outer surface of the rollers) undergoes a compressive force, and this, because of the difference in the course of these parts, these courses being directly proportional to the radius of curvature, which varies due to the thickness of the junction devices. Since these stresses are very different between the lower and upper parts, and in order to further improve the wear resistance of these joining devices, it is known to give the upper part a greater extensibility than that of the lower part.
- the central part has then evolved so as to be separated from the lower and upper plates, so as to leave room for the use of independent spacers used at the time of assembly against which the first of the ends of the conveyor belt which is set up in the junction, between the lower and upper plates, then these spacers are removed before placing the second end of the conveyor belt.
- junction devices were made by molding or injection and had an "H" structure whose lower and upper plates and the central portion were formed in one piece. This required for their manufacture as many molds as the thickness of conveyor belts encountered in the field, and had to be manufactured, therefore, in very small series, which increased the cost price, the manufacture, storage and the distribution.
- the lower plate is arranged to undergo without damage the passage on rollers, motors or return, causing or returning the conveyor belt at the ends of which is mounted the connecting device considered, the lower plate coming directly into contact with these drive members of the band.
- the upper plate is directly in contact with the different materials or different products transported on the conveyor belt.
- the upper plate is also generally swept by scrapers.
- the object of the present invention is to propose a solution which corresponds to an evolution of this type of existing junctions and which makes it possible to guarantee even a reduction of costs in order to reduce the cost price, to manufacture, storage and distribution. this of course without harming in any way the quality of the product obtained, that is to say, by maintaining or improving the quality and strength of the connecting device and ensuring the excellence of these fastening means .

- a junction plate 4 is able to be superimposed with another junction plate having the same characteristics in order to form, together, a junction device 1.
- the upper junction plate 4 is oriented in the opposite direction to that of the lower junction plate so that the flange 41 of one of the junction plates 4 is facing the other flange 42 of the other plate of junction 4 but also that the two junction plates 4 of the junction device are shifted by a predetermined pitch p to be complementary.
- a step corresponds to a half-pattern in the transverse direction Y of the junction device 1 so that each first interface 6 of a junction plate 4 is arranged vertically to the right of a second interface 7 of the other junction plate 4 of the junction device 1 corresponding.
- FIG. 7B illustrates an exemplary embodiment which differs substantially from that of FIG. 7A in that the second pattern 8b here is complementary and no longer symmetrical with the first pattern 8a with respect to the median axis D 'of the plate junction 4.
- the same conveyor belt or conveyor can be formed by the meeting or joining of several conveyor belts connected together by a junction device as described above.
- the number of rows of interfaces may also vary depending on the desired use.
- the patterns may vary.
- the junction plates 4 are obtained from the same pattern, whatever it may be, and configured so that said junction plates are able to mate with each other.
