Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rope cutting technology, and in particular to a wire harness and rope cutting machine. Background Technology
[0002] In the manufacturing of automotive wiring harnesses, power cables, and fiber ropes, cutting of wiring harnesses and ropes is one of the core processes. Traditional cutting equipment typically uses a single cutting method, requiring either hot or cold cutting depending on the material. Hot cutting equipment relies on high-temperature melting and is suitable for materials such as plastic insulation layers and synthetic fibers, but high temperatures can easily cause oxidation or heat damage to the metal wire core. While cold cutting equipment avoids heat-affected zones, it can easily cause burrs or tensile deformation on tough materials such as nylon ropes and braided tapes. Frequent equipment changes are required when producing different materials, severely limiting efficiency. Furthermore, existing equipment largely relies on manual feeding and positioning, resulting in low efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0026] In addition, the fit-type track conveyor 2 includes a connecting frame 28, which is located on the back of the component mounting frame 13. A bidirectional servo cylinder 27 is installed on the connecting frame 28. The piston rods at the upper and lower output ends of the bidirectional servo cylinder 27 are both equipped with tension wheel mounting plates 25. The tension wheel mounting plates 25 are symmetrically arranged in the middle of the component mounting frame 13. The bidirectional servo cylinder 27 realizes the synchronous lifting and lowering of the tension wheel mounting plates 25 on both the upper and lower sides.
[0027] Meanwhile, a plurality of first driven wheels 22 are rotatably arranged in the middle of the tension wheel mounting plate 25. On both sides of the first driven wheels 22, the tension wheel mounting plate 25 is respectively provided with an active tension wheel 21 and a second driven wheel 23. The active tension wheel 21 and the outer periphery of the first driven wheels 22 and the second driven wheels 23 are fitted with a track 24.

The motor 26 drives the active tension wheel 21 to rotate. The tracks 24 on the upper and lower sides are used to clamp the wire harness.
[0028] Furthermore, the hot cutting mechanism 5 includes a first mounting plate 51, which is used to connect to the frame of the upper mounting bracket 1. A first electric cylinder 52 is mounted on one side of the first mounting plate 51, and a first mounting head 53 is slidably fitted on the other side of the first mounting plate 51.

The hot cutting blade 54 is used to cut materials that require high temperature melting, such as cable insulation and braided tape. The material is melted by high temperature and the cutting is completed. The cold cutting blade 64 is used for precision cutting, with smooth edges and no damage to the material. During cutting, the material is placed on the take-up turntables 02 on both sides, enters the upper mounting frame 1 through the cable hole 11 on one side, and then passes through the cable tube 3 and the upper and lower tracks 24. The tracks are raised and lowered by the bidirectional servo electric cylinder 27 to make the tracks 24 fit the material. The motor 26 drives the active tension wheel 21 to rotate, which, together with the first driven wheel 22 and the second driven wheel 23, makes the tracks 24 rotate, thereby pulling the material out through the cable hole 11 on the other side and onto the lowered take-up tray 03.
