Definitions

  • the invention relates to a conveyor with a toothed, thermoplastic endless belt.
  • Conveyors are well-known apparatuses with belts for moving objects from one location to another. Many types of conveyors are used in various industries. Examples of conveyors include conveyors with modular belts, chain belts, and endless thermoplastic belts. Some belts are more suitable for certain applications than others. For example, in the food handling industry, where a hygienic environment is critical, the thermoplastic belts are favored due to their generally continuous, smooth load-bearing or upper surface.
  • One type of conveyor with an endless thermoplastic belt comprises a tensioned belt having smooth upper and lower surfaces and extending between a drive pulley and a tail piece (typically a pulley or a fixed bar). Friction between the drive pulley and the belt enables transfer of torque from the former to the latter to thereby induce movement of the belt.
  • friction-driven endless thermoplastic belts are still not optimal for industries such as the food industry. Because tension on the belt is required to maintain the requisite friction for moving the belt, this type of conveyor does not perform well in environments where the tension and friction can be compromised. In the food industry, introduction of grease and effluents from food products can result in a loss of friction and thereby detrimentally affect the performance of the conveyor.
  • another conveyor with an endless belt comprises a low friction, direct drive thermoplastic belt having a flat upper surface and teeth on a lower surface.
  • This type of conveyor has the seamless flat upper surface that is easy to clean and overcomes the tension and friction problems associated with the friction driven flat belts.
  • the teeth engage sheaves on a drive sprocket to transfer torque to the belt without requiring friction between the belt and the drive sprocket or tension in the belt.
  • Such a conveyor is disclosed in U.S. Patent Application No. 60/593,493, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
  • the direct drive, toothed, endless belt conveyor can have any number of configurations, including straight, curved, inclined, or combinations thereof.
  • One type of conveyor which is commonly referred to as a swan neck conveyor, comprises a combination of at least one straight section and an inclined section. Often, a swan neck conveyor will have upper and lower straight sections with an intermediate inclined section.
  • the shape of the conveyor is maintained by sidewalls that loosely guide the belt. The sidewalls, however, prevent only vertical displacement of the edges of the belt in order to maintain the desired shape; they do not prevent lateral displacement of the edges of the belt.
  • a conveyor having a straight section and a curved section comprises a toothed endless thermoplastic belt driven by a drive pulley.
  • the conveyor further comprises a first guide assembly located at the juncture between straight section and the curved section to prevent buckling of an upper span of the belt.
  • a second guide assembly located at the drive pulley also prevents buckling of the belt and prevents premature exiting of an exit tooth on the belt from an exit sheave on the drive pulley to ensure proper drive characteristics.
  • Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a swan neck conveyor having a toothed, endless thermoplastic belt and guide assemblies according to one embodiment of the invention.
  • Fig. 2 is a plan view of a toothed surface of the belt from the conveyor shown in Fig. 1.
  • Fig. 3 is a sectional view taken along line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
  • Fig. 4 is a sectional view taken along line 4-4 of Fig. 1.
  • Fig. 5 is a sectional view taken along line 5-5 of Fig. 4.
  • Fig. 6 is a sectional view taken along line 6-6 of Fig. 1.
  • Fig. 7 is a perspective view of a straight conveyor having a toothed, endless thermoplastic belt and guide assemblies according to one embodiment of the invention.
  • FIG. 1-6 An embodiment of a swan neck conveyor according to one aspect of the invention is shown in Figs. 1-6 and provides an endless conveyor belt and a guide assembly that prevents buckling of the belt at the juncture between straight and inclined sections of the conveyor and also at a drive pulley.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates a conveyor 10 having a straight section 12 and an inclined section 14.
  • a belt 16 of the conveyor 10 wraps around a drive pulley 18 and an idler or slave pulley 20, with each of the pulleys 18, 20 mounted for rotation on a respective central shaft 22, 24.
  • Sidewalls (not shown) direct the belt and maintain the shape of the straight and inclined sections 14, 16.
  • the drive and idler pulleys 18, 20 are sprockets comprising a plurality of teeth and sheaves, and each of the drive and idler pulleys 18, 20 comprise a plurality of individual pulleys spaced from one another along the respective shaft 22, 24.
  • the drive and idler pulleys 18, 20 are any of a number of different forms and sizes.
  • the pulleys 18, 20 are described in more detail below.
  • a portion of the belt 16 that travels from the idler pulley 20 to the drive pulley 18 as the belt 16 travels in the direction of the arrow 26 defines a load- bearing or upper span 28 of the belt 16
  • a portion of the belt 16 that travels from the drive pulley 18 to the idler pulley 20 defines a return or lower span 30 of the belt 16.
  • the belt 16 comprises (in the upper span 28) an upper or outside surface 32 and a lower or inside surface 34 joined along side edges 36, 38.
  • the distance between the upper and lower surfaces 32, 34 defines a thickness of the belt 16.
  • the upper surface 32 is fairly smooth and free of discontinuities and is typically made of a thermoplastic material, such as Pebax® resin, polyester, or polyurethane.
  • the upper surface 32 can include various features, such as cleats, to facilitate the transporting of goods on the conveyor 10.
  • Fig. 2 which is a view of the lower surface 34 of the belt 16
  • An exemplary lateral width for the current embodiment of the belt 16 is about thirty-six inches.
  • the belt 16 has a plurality of longitudinally spaced teeth 40 on the lower surface 34.
  • Each of the teeth 40 comprises a plurality of teeth portions 42 extending at least partly across the lateral width of the belt 16 and laterally spaced from one another by gaps 44.
  • the teeth portions 42 include a center tooth portion 42A generally wider than and located between edge teeth portions 42B located adjacent the belt side edges 36, 38.
  • Each edge tooth portion 42B has a surface 43 facing and partly defining the gap 44.
  • the gaps 44 between the teeth portions 42 are spaced from the corresponding belt side edge 36, 38 by at least a distance equal to the width of one of the edge teeth portions 42B.
  • each of the edge teeth portions 42B can have a lateral width of about one-half inch.
  • each of the teeth 40 comprises a driving face 46 and an opposite non-driving face 48.
  • the teeth 40 of the belt 16 have a pitch P be it defined as the distance between the centerlines of adjacent teeth 40.
  • the belt pitch Pbeit is measured along a belt pitch line 50, which corresponds to the neutral bending axis of the belt 16.
  • the neutral bending axis is the imaginary plane on one side of which the belt material is under compression and on the other side of which the belt material is under tension.
  • upper and “lower” refer to the opposing surfaces of the belt 16 and are used to differentiate the surface 32 upon which loads are carried and the surface 34 that has the teeth 40. It is apparent in Fig. 1 that the load-bearing surface 32 is not always the “upper” surface, and the toothed surface 34 is not always the “lower” surface, such as for the return span 30. However, for the upper span 28, the load-bearing surface 32 is usually the “upper” surface, and the toothed surface 34 is the “lower” surface. Thus, for convenience, the terms “upper” and “lower” are used to describe the surfaces 32, 34.
  • the drive pulley 18 and the idler pulley 20 will be described with respect to the drive pulley 18, with it being understood that the idler pulley 20 can be identical to the drive pulley 18, as shown in Fig. 1, or can differ from the drive pulley 18.
  • the drive pulley 18 comprises a plurality of radially extending teeth 60 spaced from one another by sheaves 62. Each of the sheaves 62 has a driving face 64 and an opposed, non-driving face 66.
  • the sheaves 62 of the drive pulley 18 have a pitch P pu iiey defined as the arc length between centerlines of adjacent sheaves 62, measured along a pulley pitch circle 52.
  • the pulley pitch circle 52 in this case corresponds to the belt pitch line 50 as the belt 16 wraps around the pulley 18. In other words, the pulley pitch circle 52 has the same radius as the belt pitch line 50 as the belt 16 wraps around the pulley 18.
  • the sheaves 62 on the drive pulley 18 engage the belt teeth 40 to transfer torque from the drive pulley 18 to the belt 16.
  • the belt tooth pitch Pbeit is less than the drive pulley sheave pitch P pu ii e y at less than maximum elongation of the belt 16.
  • the longitudinal width of each sheave 62 in the drive pulley 18 exceeds the longitudinal width of each belt tooth 40 at least by the amount of distance generated by elongating the belt 16 the maximum allowable amount over the span of the belt wrap.
  • the teeth 40 and the sheaves 62 are longitudinally aligned as long as the belt elongation is at or below the maximum elongation.
  • the driven tooth is an exit tooth 70, which is the tooth that is about to exit the drive pulley 18, particularly from a corresponding exit sheave 72 on the drive pulley 18.
  • exit tooth 70 is the tooth that is about to exit the drive pulley 18, particularly from a corresponding exit sheave 72 on the drive pulley 18.
  • the gap 74 remains between the following belt tooth, i.e., a trailing tooth 76, and the driving face 64 of its respective drive pulley sheave, i.e., a trailing sheave 78.
  • the drive pulley 18 continues to rotate relative to the belt 16 without moving the belt 16, and the effective drive characteristics are lost until the driving face 64 of the trailing sheave 78 abuts the driving face 46 of the trailing tooth 76.
  • the drive pulley 18 rotates while the belt 16 slips until the engagement between the driving faces 64, 46 of the tailing sheave 78 and trailing tooth 76.
  • the conveyor 10 comprises a pair guide assemblies, an upper span guide assembly 80 and a pulley guide assembly 82.
  • the upper span guide assembly 80 is located at the juncture between the straight section 12 and the inclined section 14 (hereinafter referred to as "the juncture") at the upper span 28, and the pulley guide assembly 82 is located at the drive pulley 18.
  • the upper span guide assembly 80 and the drive pulley guide assembly 82 prevent buckling of the belt 16 at the juncture and at the drive pulley 18, respectively.
  • the pulley guide assembly 82 also prevents premature exiting of the exit tooth 70 from the exit sheave 72, as will be described in detail below.
  • the upper span guide assembly 80 comprises a pair of lateral guides 90 positioned below the lower, toothed surface 34 of the belt 16.

  • the projection 94 counteracts the tendency of the corresponding side edge 36, 38 of the belt 16 to move laterally inwardly by exerting a force in the direction of arrow 96 away from a longitudinal center of the belt 16. In other words, it prevents migration of the corresponding side edge 36, 38 toward the longitudinal center. Because the lateral guides 90 are positioned on opposite side edges 36, 38, the lateral guides 90 prevent the belt 16 from buckling.
  • the gaps 44 (and thereby the teeth 40) and the guide projections 94 have about the same thickness, or, alternatively, the projections 94 can have a thickness greater than the thickness of the gaps 44 (and thereby the teeth 40).
