Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable technology, and in particular to a cable clamping carrier and production line. Background Technology
[0002] Cables are widely used in power, communications, electronic equipment, automotive manufacturing, and home appliances. Their production process typically includes multiple steps such as wire drawing, stranding, insulation, sheathing, testing, and winding. Throughout the production process, the orderly transport, positioning, clamping, and guiding of cables are crucial for ensuring both finished product quality and production efficiency. To achieve stable control over cables, existing production lines are often equipped with clamping carriers designed to effectively fix and guide cables during transport, turning, and winding processes.
[0003] Existing clamps mostly use a hinged design, which moves the two clamping ends closer or further apart by changing the hinge angle. However, as the opening and closing angle of the clamp changes, the height of the clamping end fluctuates, causing the clamping path to deviate from the axis of the cable itself. The clamping point is unstable and it is difficult to keep the clamping point on the same horizontal plane. Especially in production scenarios where multiple sets of clamps need to work synchronously, it will cause inconsistent clamping positions, which is not conducive to multi-axis linkage or synchronous control.
[0004] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the general background of this utility model and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0007] The fixing frame includes a vertically arranged base plate, a fixing block protruding from the middle of the base plate, and a guide rod passing through the fixing block. The guide rod is arranged parallel to the width direction of the base plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the roller has a cylindrical structure, and a rotating shaft is provided inside the roller. One end of the rotating shaft is disposed on the first push plate, and the roller rotates along the rotating shaft.
[0014] Furthermore, the bottom of the base plate extends downward with a protrusion, and the interior of the protrusion has a U-shaped groove with one end open for connecting to the rotor at the connection end of the production line.

[0019] This utility model also includes a production line, comprising the cable clamping carrier as described above, which clamps the cable to each workstation.
[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting the roller in the inclined waist-shaped hole of the clamping member and arranging the two waist-shaped holes in a figure-eight shape, and cooperating with the linkage control of the spring assembly and the drive component, the symmetrical sliding clamping action of the clamping member is realized.

For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0031] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown: A cable clamping device includes: a fixed frame 1, a clamping assembly 2, and a movable assembly 3;
[0032] The fixing frame 1 includes a vertically arranged base plate 11, a fixing block 12 protruding from the middle of the base plate 11, and a guide rod 13 passing through the fixing block 12. The guide rod 13 is arranged parallel to the width direction of the base plate 11.
[0033] The clamping assembly 2 includes two clamping members 21 arranged symmetrically. The guide rod 13 passes through the two clamping members 21 in sequence. Each clamping member 21 has an inclined waist-shaped hole 213a at its bottom, and the waist-shaped holes 213a of the two clamping members 21 are arranged in a figure-eight shape.
[0034] The movable component 3 is located at the bottom of the clamping member 21, including a spring assembly 31 and a roller 32 located at the end of the spring assembly 31, as well as a driving member (not shown) for driving the spring assembly 31 to move along the length direction of the base plate 11; the roller 32 is located in the waist-shaped hole 213a and moves along the waist-shaped hole 213a, thereby driving the two clamping members 21 to move closer or further away synchronously along the length direction of the guide rod 13, that is, to clamp or release the cable 01.
[0035] In use, the extended end of the drive unit extends upward, driving the spring assembly 31 and roller 32 to move upward. The roller 32 moves upward along the waist-shaped hole 213a to the top of the waist-shaped hole 213a. Since the two waist-shaped holes 213a are arranged in a V-shape, the upward movement of the roller 32 will force the two clamping parts 21 to move away from each other along the length of the guide rod 13, so that the clamping assembly 2 opens and releases the cable 01. Similarly, when the extended end of the drive unit retracts, it drives the spring assembly 31 and roller 32 to move downward. The roller 32 moves downward along the waist-shaped hole 213a to the bottom of the waist-shaped hole 213a. Since the two waist-shaped holes 213a are arranged in a V-shape, the two clamping parts 21 move closer to each other along the length of the guide rod 13, so that the clamping assembly 2 clamps and clamps the cable 01.
[0036] The linear movement of the clamping member 21 is achieved by the roller 32 sliding in the figure-eight inclined waist-shaped hole 213a, which avoids the problem of uneven force transmission caused by the change of lever arm in the traditional hinge structure, making the clamping or loosening process more stable and the clamping force distribution more uniform, which is conducive to ensuring the shape integrity of the cable 01 and the clamping reliability.
[0037] By linearly sliding the clamping member 21 along the length of the guide rod 13, compared with the motion trajectory of the hinge structure, the height of the cable 01 axis remains consistent during the clamping process, effectively improving clamping accuracy and controllability. It is especially suitable for automated cable 01 processing equipment with high positioning requirements.
[0038] Since the movement of the clamping member 21 is driven by the roller 32 sliding linearly along the inclined groove, the required space is limited to the slide and guide rail itself. Compared with the rotational unfolding form of the hinged opening and closing structure, the overall structure is more compact and is conducive to use on production lines with high density layout of multiple workstations.
[0039] The driving component is a linear actuator (such as an electric cylinder, pneumatic cylinder, servo slide, etc.), which can effectively decouple the driving direction from the clamping direction. It is simple to control, has a fast response, and is easy to integrate into automated cable production lines or robot gripping systems.
[0040] By setting the spring assembly 31, elastic buffering can be provided during the clamping process to prevent excessive clamping force from damaging the cable 01, thereby enhancing the adaptability to cables 01 of different materials or diameters and improving product applicability and operational safety.
[0041] By placing the roller 32 within the inclined oblong hole 213a of the clamping member 21 and arranging the two oblong holes 213a in a V-shape opposite each other, and coordinating the linkage control of the spring assembly 31 and the drive component, the symmetrical sliding clamping action of the clamping member 21 is achieved. This results in uniform clamping force, compact structure, high control precision, and strong automation adaptability. Compared with traditional articulated clamps, this solution not only significantly improves clamping stability and precision but also simplifies the structure, facilitating installation, debugging, and maintenance, making it suitable for widespread application in various automated cable processing scenarios.
[0042] As a preferred embodiment of the above, the clamping member 21 includes a clamping end 211 at the top, a connecting end 212 in the middle, and a sliding end 213 at the bottom.
[0043] The connecting end 212 includes a plate-shaped structure 211a and a groove-shaped structure 211b spaced apart. The connecting ends 212 of the two clamping members 21 are connected by inserting their respective plate-shaped structures 211a into the groove-shaped structures 211b of the other. Specifically, the connecting end 212 adopts the mutual insertion and cooperation of the plate-shaped structure 211a and the groove-shaped structure 211b, which not only improves the registration accuracy between the two clamping members 21, but also enhances the anti-shaking ability of their connection parts, ensuring the symmetry and clamping synchronization of the fixture during the working process.
[0044] The size of the groove end 213 is larger than that of the connecting end 212, thereby providing sufficient space for setting the waist-shaped hole 213a, avoiding interference or poor clamping due to the compact structure, and thus improving the smoothness and reliability of the clamping / releasing process.
[0045] In this embodiment, the spring assembly 31 includes a first push plate 311 and a second push plate 312 arranged vertically, a first spring 313 disposed between the first push plate 311 and the second push plate 312, and a support rod 314 with one end disposed on the second push plate 312 and the other end passing through the first push plate 311. The first spring 313 is sleeved on the support rod 314. Specifically, when the extended end of the driving member is connected to the second push plate 312, when the extended end of the driving member is fixedly connected to the second push plate 312, when the extended end of the driving member performs a telescopic movement, it drives the second push plate 312, the first spring 313 and the first push plate 311 to move up and down, thereby driving the roller 32 on the first push plate 311 to slide up and down along the waist-shaped hole 213a.
[0046] The roller 32 has a cylindrical structure and a rotating shaft inside. One end of the rotating shaft is set on the first push plate 311. The roller 32 rotates along the rotating shaft. When the first push plate 311 moves up and down, the roller 32 rotates along the rotating shaft, which transforms sliding friction into rolling friction, effectively reducing the frictional resistance of the roller 32 when sliding in the groove and improving the smoothness of movement.
[0047] As a preferred embodiment of the above, the bottom of the base plate 11 extends downward and is provided with a protrusion 111. The protrusion 111 has a U-shaped groove 111a with one end open inside, which is used to connect with the rotor of the connection end 212 of the production line. Specifically, the rotor of the connection end 212 has a cylindrical structure. After rotating at a set angle, the rotor is just inserted into the U-shaped groove 111a, which can realize the quick insertion and engagement of the clamping carrier, significantly improving the installation efficiency. It is especially suitable for production conditions that require frequent replacement or movement.
[0048] In this embodiment, the fixing frame 1 also includes a plurality of baffles 14. Each baffle 14 has vertical protrusions 141 at both ends. The two protrusions 141 extend toward the same side and are fixedly connected to the base plate 11. The baffles 14 are used to straighten the clamping component 2 and the movable component 3 during their movement, prevent the clamping component 21 and the movable component 3 from tilting and swaying during the guiding movement, and improve the stability of the clamping path.
[0049] The base plate 11 is provided with a slider 15, and the slider 15 is provided with a guide groove 151, which is used to uniformly install the clamping carrier on the production line, slide along the slide rail on the production line, and move along the direction of the slide rail, thereby driving the cable 01 to the corresponding work station.
[0050] As a preferred embodiment of the above, a buffer block 16 is provided on the side of the base plate 11 away from the clamping assembly 2, and a second spring 17 is provided between the buffer block 16 and the base plate 11. Specifically, the buffer structure can absorb part of the energy when the clamping device is subjected to impact or reverse thrust, and play a role in buffering, limiting or protecting, thereby improving the stability and service life of the whole machine.
[0051] In this embodiment, a cover plate 18 is provided on the base plate 11 to block the sides of the clamping component 2 and the movable component 3, preventing dust or debris from entering the interior of the components, thereby improving the operational stability and service life of the device.
[0052] This utility model also includes a production line, including the cable 01 clamping carrier as described above. The cable 01 clamping carrier clamps the cable 01 to each workstation to realize the positioning and transmission of the cable 01.
[0053] Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
