Abstract

A sand-belt finishing machine having a sand-belt replacement mechanism includes a support rack, a first roller, a second roller, an upright rod, an elastic member, a sand belt, and a pull lever. When the upright rod is moved by the pull lever to compress the elastic member, the distance between the first roller and the second roller is shortened. When the upright rod is released by the pull lever, the upright rod is returned to its original position by the elastic member, so that the distance between the first roller and the second roller is increased. Thus, the sand belt can be mounted on and detached from the first roller and the second roller rapidly, easily and conveniently, thereby facilitating the user replacing the sand belt.
