[0006] Furthermore, the clamping member includes a cylinder, which is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base through a bracket arranged on its circumferential outer surface. A cylinder is installed on the circumferential outer surface of the cylinder, and a clamp is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder, and the clamp is located in the working cavity of the cylinder.
[0007] Furthermore, there are three groups of planetary gears in total. A planetary gear frame is rotatably installed at one end of the planetary gear away from the cutter, a sun gear meshing with the planetary gear is arranged on the side of the planetary gear frame close to the cutter, and a material guide pipe rotatably connected to the inside of the planetary gear frame is fixedly connected to the side of the sun gear close to the cylinder.
[0008] Furthermore, the central axis of the circular space surrounded by the cylinder and the clamping plate coincides with the central axis of the material guide tube, and the material guide tube has an arc edge design at one end close to the cylinder.
[0009] Furthermore, a limiting ring close to the outer surface of the planetary gear carrier is sleeved on the circumferential outer surface of the material guide tube, and the limiting ring and the sun gear are respectively located on both sides of the planetary gear carrier.
[0010] Furthermore, the outer circumferential surface of the guide tube is fixedly connected to a gear ring via an inner support rod, a driving unit transmission-connected to the gear ring is arranged above the base, and a slider rotatably mounted to the outer circumferential surface of the gear ring is arranged on the outer side of the planetary gear frame.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The present invention is provided with a cutting part. Planetary gears refer to a gear system whose rotation axis can rotate around its own rotation axis like a "fixed axis gear", and whose rotation axis can also rotate around the axis of the ring gear along with the planetary gear frame; the rotation around its own axis is called "autorotation", and the rotation around the axis of the ring gear is called "revolution". The planetary gear drives the cutter to rotate while revolving and rotating rapidly. The blade on the cutter does not contact the outer surface of the cable. With the rotation of the planetary gear, the counterweight plate is driven to rotate rapidly, and the built-in block and the blade are driven to rotate synchronously. When the counterweight plate reaches the initial set speed, under the action of centrifugal force, the built-in block slides outward along the inner wall of the built-in groove, and the strong spring is compressed to undergo elastic deformation until the two reach a balanced state. As the counterweight plate speeds up slowly and continuously, under the action of centrifugal force, the blade begins to slowly move closer to one side of the cable. At the same time, the cutting depth of the blade on the cable continues to increase until the counterweight plate reaches the rated speed. The limiting boss inside the built-in groove limits the built-in block, and the blade completes the cutting of the cable. The cutting angle is neat and consistent, and no extrusion occurs near the cut, which greatly improves the cutting accuracy of the cable. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0017] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0018] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the embodiments. Example
[0019] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 The present invention provides a technical solution: a fixed-distance cutting device for power cables, comprising: The clamping part 1 comprises a base 11, and a clamping member 12 is arranged above the base 11 for clamping the outer surface of the circumference of the external cable; The cutting part 2 includes a frame 21, the bottom of the frame 21 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base 11, and the top of the frame 21 is fixedly connected with a cutting piece 22 that can be used to cut the outer surface of the circumference of the external cable to a fixed length; The cutting piece 22 includes a gear ring 221, the outer circumferential surface of the gear ring 221 is fixedly connected to the top of the frame 21, a planetary gear 222 is meshedly mounted on the inner side of the gear ring 221, and the outer end of the planetary gear 222 is fixedly connected to the cutter 223 via a connecting rod.
[0020] The clamping member 12 includes a cylinder 121, which is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base 11 through a bracket 122 arranged on the outer surface of the cylinder 121. A cylinder 123 is installed on the outer surface of the cylinder 121. The output end of the cylinder 123 is fixedly connected to a clamping plate 124, and the clamping plate 124 is located in the working chamber of the cylinder 121. When the cylinder 123 on the clamping member 12 is started, the output end drives the clamping plate 124 to move downward for a short distance, driving the clamping plate 124 to press the outer surface of the cable, so that the cable and the clamping member 12 are combined into a whole, thereby improving the cutting accuracy.
[0021] There are three groups of planetary gears 222. A planetary gear frame 224 is rotatably installed at one end of the planetary gear 222 away from the cutter 223. A sun gear 225 meshing with the planetary gear 222 is provided on the side of the planetary gear frame 224 close to the cutter 223. The ring gear 221, the planetary gear 222, the sun gear 225, etc. cooperate to enable the cutter 223 to revolve and rotate while rotating rapidly on its own axis. The rotation around its own axis is called "rotation", and the rotation around the axis of the ring gear 221 is called "revolution". The sun gear 225 is fixedly connected to a material guide pipe 226 rotatably connected to the inside of the planetary gear frame 224 on the side close to the cylinder 121.
[0022] The central axis of the circular space enclosed by the cylinder 121 and the clamping plate 124 coincides with the central axis of the material guide tube 226 , and the end of the material guide tube 226 close to the cylinder 121 adopts an arc edge design.
[0023] A limiting ring 2261 close to the outer surface of the planetary gear carrier 224 is sleeved on the circumferential outer surface of the guide tube 226 , and the limiting ring 2261 and the sun gear 225 are respectively located on both sides of the planetary gear carrier 224 .
[0024] The outer circumferential surface of the guide tube 226 is fixedly connected to the gear ring 2262 through an inner support rod, a driving unit 111 is arranged above the base 11, and a slider 2241 is arranged on the outer side of the planetary gear carrier 224 and is rotatably mounted on the outer circumferential surface of the gear ring 221 to ensure smooth rotation of the planetary gear carrier 224.
[0025] The cutter 223 includes a counterweight plate 2231, which maintains stable movement and provides sufficiently large inertia. The outer surface of the counterweight plate 2231 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod at the outer end of the planetary gear 222. A built-in groove 2232 is provided on the side of the counterweight plate 2231 away from the planetary gear 222. The inner wall of the built-in groove 2232 is connected to a built-in block 2233 in a damping sliding manner. A blade 2234 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the built-in block 2233. A strong spring 2235 connected to the inner wall of the built-in groove 2232 is provided on the side of the built-in block 2233.
[0026] The counterweight plate 2231 is fixedly connected to a limit plate 2236 close to the outer surface of the blade 2234 near the built-in groove 2232 to prevent the blade 2234 from vibrating violently during the cutting process and damaging the blade 2234. The blade 2234 adopts an arc-edge blade design to facilitate the switching of the blade 2234. During the switching process of the blade 2234, the cable will be cut.
[0027] refer to Figure 1-7 Conventional cable cutters will not only damage the insulation layer during use, but also easily wear the cable at the lead-out part, thereby increasing the failure rate of the cable. Moreover, the cutting speed and angle of the cable cutter are difficult to control, and the extrusion force of the blade will cause serious deformation of the cable cut, and its internal structure may be damaged, thereby causing signal output deformation. In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects, the present invention designs a fixed-distance cutting device for power cables.
[0028] Cable loading: In practical applications, mark points are made on the outer surface of the cable to be cut, and measuring tools such as rulers and tape measures can be used to mark the distances. Then, one end of the marked cable is passed through the space surrounded by the cylinder 121 and the clamping plate 124, and then through the guide tube 226 on the cutting piece 22, through the sun gear 225 and extended to the outside until the mark point on the outer surface of the cable corresponds to the cutting point of the cutter 223. The cylinder 123 on the clamping piece 12 is started, and its output end drives the clamping plate 124 to move downward for a short distance, driving the clamping plate 124 to press the circumferential outer surface of the cable, and the cable and the clamping piece 12 are combined into a whole, thereby improving the cutting accuracy.
[0029] Cable cutting: The driving unit 111 is started, and its output end drives the gear ring 2262 to perform circular motion through the gear, driving the guide tube 226 to rotate around the inside of the planetary gear frame 224 (the limit ring 2261 and the sun gear 225 are respectively located on both sides of the planetary gear frame 224, and the planetary gear frame 224 acts as a "support" for the guide tube 226), driving the sun gear 225 to rotate, and the sun gear 225 drives the three sets of planetary gears 222 to rotate synchronously around the inside of the gear ring 221 (the planetary gears 222 refer to a gear system that can rotate around their own rotation axes like "fixed axis gears", and their rotation axes also rotate around the axis of the gear ring 221 with the planetary gear frame 224; the rotation around its own axis is called "autorotation", and the rotation around the axis of the gear ring 221 is called "revolution"). The planetary gears 222 drive the cutter 223 to rotate while orbiting and rotating rapidly, so as to cut the marked points on the outer surface of the cable.
[0030] Initially, the blade 2234 on the cutter 223 does not contact the outer surface of the cable. As the planetary gear 222 rotates, the counterweight plate 2231 rotates rapidly, driving the built-in block 2233 and the blade 2234 to rotate synchronously. When the counterweight plate 2231 reaches the initial set speed, under the action of centrifugal force, the built-in block 2233 slides outward along the inner wall of the built-in groove 2232, and the strong spring 2235 is compressed and elastically deformed until the two reach a balanced state. At this time, the blade 2234 begins to contact the outer surface of the cable and performs a preliminary cutting on the outer surface of the wire. As the counterweight plate 2231 is continuously and slowly accelerated, under the action of centrifugal force, the blade 2234 begins to slowly move toward one side of the cable. At the same time, the cutting depth of the cable by the blade 2234 continues to increase until the counterweight plate 2231 reaches the rated speed. The limiting boss inside the built-in groove 2232 limits the built-in block 2233 (to avoid collision between the blades 2234), and the blade 2234 completes the cutting of the cable. The cutting angle is neat and consistent, and no extrusion occurs near the incision, thereby greatly improving the cutting accuracy of the cable.
[0031] The present application adopts the cutting piece 22, which has the following advantages: Advantage 1: The ring gear 221, the planetary gear 222, the sun gear 225 and the like cooperate to realize that the cutter 223 can rotate and revolve while rotating rapidly (rotation around its own axis is called "rotation", and rotation around the axis of the ring gear 221 is called "revolution"). At the same time, the centrifugal force and the strong spring 2235 work together to realize the "gradual" circular cutting of the blade 2234.
[0032] Advantage 2: There are three groups of cutters 223 in total. The three groups of cutters 223 rotate and cut synchronously around the outer surface of the cable. Compared with the traditional single flywheel cutting, the cutting part of the cable is subjected to more uniform force (simultaneous pressure in three directions), the cutting speed is faster, the accuracy is higher, and the deviation of the cutting part is avoided.
[0033] Advantage three: during the circular cutting process of the cutter 223, the cutter 223 itself also rotates, and the blade 2234 is continuously rotated to switch. The blade 2234 adopts an arc-edge blade design, so that the cutting part of the cable line continuously maintains a "double cutting" mode, and the cutting speed is faster and the precision is higher (multiple sets of blades 2234 work synchronously).
[0034] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the protection scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
