[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present invention generally described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an automatic cutting and collecting device for aviation wires, which realizes the automatic cutting and collecting of aviation wires and effectively improves production efficiency; using this device to process wires can reduce the length inconsistency caused by human errors and the high labor cost problems. Figure 1-2 It is a schematic diagram for explaining an embodiment of the automatic cutting and collecting equipment for aviation wires of the present invention.

[0031] Figure 1The schematic diagram of an automatic wire cutting device provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown, which includes: a cutting mechanism installed on a base 1, which includes a first cutting mechanism and a second cutting mechanism that cooperate with each other, and a slide rail is provided on the base 1, and the first cutting mechanism and the second cutting mechanism move on the slide rail. The first cutting mechanism includes a first cutter 3 and a first drive plate 2 that are fixedly connected, and the second cutting mechanism includes a second cutter 5 and a second drive plate 4 that are fixedly connected, and the first drive plate 2 and the second drive plate 4 are both controlled by the drive cylinder 6. The first cutting mechanism and the second cutting mechanism are linked to achieve centering cutting to cut the wire. An outlet conduit 7 is installed on one side of the cutting mechanism, and a metering device is provided at the inlet end of the outlet conduit 7, and the metering device measures the length of the wire and transmits it to the industrial computer 8. The outlet conduit 7 provides a path for the wire introduced from the wire unwinding machine, and allows the wire to enter the automatic collection device after cutting. The outlet conduit 7 adopts a curved structure design, and the output port of the outlet conduit 7 is tangent to the inner wall of the take-up reel 10, so that the wire can enter the take-up reel for winding operation.

[0032] The cutting mechanism is powered by a driving cylinder 6, which is electrically connected to an industrial computer 8 to control the cutting mechanism. The driving cylinder 6 is connected to an external air source and is controlled by the cutting software of the industrial computer 8 to provide power to the first driving plate 2 and the second driving plate 4, so that they can simultaneously cut the wire.

[0033] A visual recognition device 9 is provided on the wire inlet side of the cutting mechanism for collecting wire information.

[0034] Figure 2 The figure shows a schematic diagram of an automatic wire collection device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, which includes: a collection mechanism arranged at the tail end of the outlet conduit 7, the collection mechanism having a wire reel 10, which forms a wire coil after cutting. The collection mechanism also has a drive motor and a control module 12, the control module 12 receives the wire information collected by the visual recognition device 9, and sends a control signal to the drive motor, thereby driving the wire reel 10 to rotate and reel. A telescopic mechanism 11 is installed under the wire reel 10, and the telescopic mechanism 11 is used to adjust the height of the wire reel 10, so that the height of the wire reel 10 is consistent with that of the outlet conduit 7, so that the wire can smoothly enter the wire reel 10.

[0035] The control module 12 is used to control the start and stop of the rotation function of the take-up drum 10. When a wire enters the take-up drum 10, the control module 12 is started to rotate the take-up drum 10 and automatically collect the wire; when there is no wire cutting, the control module 12 is turned off to stop the take-up drum 10 and stop collecting the wire.

[0036] In the actual implementation process: the control module 12 receives the wire information collected from the visual recognition device 9, so as to determine whether the take-up reel 10 is started or stopped. In the automatic collection equipment, the control module 12 needs to classify and collect different types of wires according to the wire number information. The take-up reel 10 can adopt different winding speeds according to the wire number characteristics, and reel the wires with the expected set characteristics at a specific speed. For example, for wires of different specifications, uses or batches, the visual recognition device 9 automatically adjusts to different rotation speeds for collection after collection, which is convenient for subsequent management and traceability. At the same time, a display interface can be set in the control module 12 to display the wire number information, quantity and other data of the collected wires in real time, so that the operator can grasp the collection situation at any time.

[0037] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a method for processing aviation wires, using the above-mentioned automatic cutting and collecting equipment, which includes the following steps:

[0038] Start the device;

[0039] Signal acquisition: The visual recognition device 9 acquires the appearance information of the wire, and performs analog-to-digital conversion to transmit the electrical signal to the control module 12;

[0040] Winding: The control module 12 generates control instructions according to the wire specifications and adjusts the rotation speed of the take-up reel 10 to complete the winding of wires of different specifications;

[0041] Wire measurement: The wire length is measured by a measuring device and converted into an electrical signal and transmitted to the industrial computer 8;

[0042] Cutting: When the wire of the set length passes, the industrial computer 8 sends a control instruction to the driving cylinder 6 to control the first cutting mechanism and the second cutting mechanism to achieve center cutting and cut the wire.

[0043] Height adjustment: The control module 12 generates a control command and sends it to the telescopic mechanism 11 to adjust the height of the take-up drum 10 so that the height of the take-up drum 10 is consistent with that of the outlet conduit 7, so that the output port of the outlet conduit 7 is tangent to the inner wall of the take-up drum 10, so that the wire can smoothly enter the take-up drum 10.

[0044] The specific working principle is: the wire enters the outlet conduit 7, the wire length is measured by the metering device and transmitted to the industrial computer 8, when the wire passes through the set length, the industrial computer 8 drives the first cutting mechanism and the second cutting mechanism to achieve center cutting through the driving cylinder 6, and cuts the wire; at the same time, the visual recognition device 9 transmits the collected wire information to the control module 12, and when the wire comes over, the driving motor is started to control the take-up reel 10 to rotate and reel the cable, and adjust different reeling speeds according to wires of different specifications, uses or batches.

[0045] So far, the purpose of the present invention has been achieved.

[0046] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
