Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of conductor processing technology, and more specifically, relates to a conductor position detection device and conductor processing equipment that can be biased. Background Technology

[0002] When splicing two bundles of wires, a section of insulation needs to be cut off from each bundle, exposing a portion of the conductor. The exposed conductors are then welded together, and finally, an insulating heat-shrink tubing is wrapped around them. In automated processing, the two bundles of wires need to be fixed in place, ensuring the exposed conductors are in the correct positions so the heat-shrink tubing can be wrapped around them. Current technology involves manually pre-adjusting the probe position before production, then transporting the welded exposed conductors to a testing device to determine if the wires are in the correct positions. However, the position of the testing device cannot be adjusted during production. Furthermore, when the exposed conductors of the wires being spliced ​​have different cross-sectional areas, the heat-shrink tubing may shift, potentially resulting in the heat-shrink tubing not accurately wrapping the exposed conductor surface, thus limiting its applicability. Summary of the Invention

[0016] In one embodiment, the detection mechanism further includes a support arm disposed on the second support shaft and a conductive probe rotatably disposed on the support arm, wherein a detection area is formed between the conductive probes for determining whether the conductor under test is located at a specified position.

The mounting slider can move relative to the bracket along the extension direction of the first support shaft when the first support shaft rotates. The detection mechanism is fixedly connected to the mounting slider and can be movably mounted relative to the bracket along the extension direction of the first support shaft. It is used to determine whether the conductor under test is located in the detection area of ​​the specified position.

When the conductor under test is located in the specified position, multiple conductive probes contact the conductor under test, and the multiple conductive probes can be electrically connected through the conductor under test, and the detection circuit is turned on. If the conductor under test is not in the specified position, the conductive probes cannot all contact the conductor under test, and the detection circuit is turned off. Therefore, by determining whether the detection circuit is connected, it can be determined whether the conductor under test is in the designated position. When the cross-sectional areas of the exposed conductors at both ends of the wires to be spliced ​​in production are different, the position of the detection mechanism is adjusted in advance to compensate for the offset of the heat shrink tubing, thereby ensuring that the heat shrink tubing is accurately wrapped on the surface of the exposed conductor at the designated position of the wire in subsequent processes, thus increasing the applicability.

The biasable conductor position detection device is provided on a support with a first driving mechanism. The first driving mechanism includes a first support shaft rotatably disposed on the support and a mounting slider disposed on the first support shaft. The mounting slider can move relative to the support along the extension direction of the first support shaft when the first support shaft rotates.

[0037] To make the technical problems to be solved, the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention.

[0040] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0041] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 3 This embodiment provides a biasable conductor position detection device, including a bracket 1, a first driving mechanism 2, and a detection mechanism 3. The specific structure and connection method of the bracket 1, the first driving mechanism 2, and the detection mechanism 3 are not limited here. The first driving mechanism 2 includes a first support shaft 21 rotatably mounted on the bracket 1 and a mounting slider 22 mounted on the first support shaft 21 for fixedly connecting the detection mechanism 3. The mounting slider 22 can move relative to the bracket 1 along the extension direction of the first support shaft 21 when the first support shaft 21 rotates. The detection mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the mounting slider 22 and can be movably mounted relative to the bracket 1 along the extension direction of the first support shaft 21, used to determine whether the conductor being tested is located in a specified detection area. Optionally, a first knob 24 is fixedly mounted on the first support shaft 21 for driving the first support shaft 21 to rotate relative to the bracket 1. The operator drives the first support shaft 21 to rotate by turning the first knob 24, causing the mounting slider 22 to move relative to the bracket 1 along the extension direction of the first support shaft 21, thereby adjusting the detection mechanism 3 to the designated detection area. Optionally, the detection device also includes a detection circuit, which is electrically connected to the conductive probes 34. When the conductor to be tested is in the designated position, multiple conductive probes 34 contact the conductor to be tested, and the multiple conductive probes 34 can be electrically connected through the conductor to be tested, thus the detection circuit is turned on. If the conductor to be tested is not in the designated position, the conductive probes 34 cannot all contact the conductor to be tested, and the detection circuit is turned off. Therefore, based on whether the detection circuit is turned on, it can be determined whether the conductor to be tested is in the designated position. When the cross-sectional areas of the exposed conductors at both ends of the conductors to be spliced ​​in production are different, the position of the detection mechanism 3 can be adjusted in advance in reverse to compensate for the offset of the heat shrink tubing, thereby ensuring that the heat shrink tubing is accurately wrapped around the surface of the exposed conductor at the designated position of the conductor in subsequent processes, thus increasing the applicability.

[0042] Please refer to further information. Figure 4 In this embodiment, the detection mechanism 3 further includes a swing frame 31 and a first measuring component 25. The first measuring component 25 includes a first fixed frame 251 fixedly connected to the swing frame 31 and an offset measuring mark 252 set on the first fixed frame 251. The offset measuring mark 252 can cooperate with the reference mark fixed on the bracket 1 to measure the offset of the detection mechanism 3. The offset measuring mark 252 is stably installed on the swing frame 31 at a preset position through the first fixed frame 251. When the detection mechanism 3 deviates, the offset measuring mark 252 on the swing frame 31 deviates by the same amount relative to the reference mark on the bracket 1, so as to accurately measure the offset of the detection mechanism 3 and further ensure that the heat shrink tubing can be accurately wrapped on the exposed conductor surface of the wire.

[0043] Please refer to the following: Figures 2 to 4In this embodiment, the detection mechanism 3 includes a swing frame 31 and a second drive mechanism 32. The swing frame 31 is fixedly connected to the mounting slider 22. The detection device includes a drive assembly 4 for driving the swing frame 31 to rotate relative to the support 1. The drive assembly 4 drives the detection mechanism 3 to rotate relative to the support 1, swinging the conductive probe 34 to the detection area and removing it from the detection area after detection, thus preventing the conductive probe 34 from affecting the next processing operation. The drive assembly 4 includes a connecting shaft 41, a drive cylinder 42 mounted on the support 1, and a transmission block 43 rotatably mounted on the first support shaft 21. The connecting shaft 41 passes between the transmission block 43 and the mounting slider 22, linking the transmission block 43 and the mounting slider 22 circumferentially. The drive cylinder 42 drives the transmission block 43 on the first support shaft 21 to rotate relative to the first support shaft 21. The connecting shaft 41 passes between the transmission block 43 and the mounting slider 22, causing the transmission block 43 and the mounting slider 22 to be linked circumferentially. The drive cylinder 42 has a retractable piston rod, which is rotatably connected to the transmission block 43. When the piston rod extends or retracts, it pulls the transmission block 43 to rotate around the first support shaft 21. When the transmission block 43 rotates, it drives the mounting slider 22 to rotate around the first support shaft 21 via the connecting shaft 41, and drives the detection mechanism 3 to swing to the detection area. Optionally, the first support shaft 21 is provided with multiple mounting sliders 22 for mounting the detection mechanism 3. The multiple mounting sliders 22 are respectively arranged on both sides of the transmission block 43, making the connection of the detection mechanism 3 more stable, and at the same time making the force on the swing frame 31 more even during the swing, which helps to improve the reliability of the detection device.

[0044] In one embodiment, whether the detection circuit is connected can be indicated by light or sound devices, such as a light or sound alarm in the detection circuit. If the detection circuit is connected, the light will illuminate or the sound alarm will sound to notify the operator that the circuit is connected. Alternatively, the electrical signal indicating that the detection circuit is connected can be used as a condition for the next processing step. If the detection circuit is connected, it outputs an electrical signal, and the host computer controls the next processing equipment to continue working based on the electrical signal; if the detection circuit is not connected, it does not output an electrical signal, and the host computer controls the next processing equipment to stop working.

[0045] Please refer to the following: Figures 3 to 5As a specific embodiment of the biasable conductor position detection device provided in this embodiment, the detection mechanism 3 includes a swing frame 31 and a second drive mechanism 32. The first drive mechanism 2 and the second drive mechanism 32 are independent of each other. The second drive mechanism 32 includes a hollow drive rod 321 sleeved on one end of the first support shaft 21 and rotatably mounted on the bracket 1, a second support shaft 322 rotatably mounted on the swing frame 31, and a transmission assembly 323 connected between the drive rod 321 and the second support shaft 322. The operator drives the drive rod 321 to rotate, thereby driving the transmission assembly 323 to rotate, and then driving the second support shaft 322 to rotate. Optionally, a second knob 324 is fixedly installed on the drive rod 321 for driving the drive rod 321 to rotate relative to the bracket 1. One end of the drive rod 321 is connected to the first support shaft 21, and the other end is fixedly connected to the second knob 324. Optionally, the first support shaft 21 includes a threaded section 211 and a smooth section 212 fixedly connected to the threaded section 211. The end of the smooth section 212 away from the threaded section 211 is inserted into the drive rod 321. An installation slider 22 for fixedly connecting the detection mechanism 3 is installed on the threaded section 211. The installation slider 22 is threadedly connected to the threaded section 211, so that when the first support shaft 21 rotates, it can drive the installation slider 22 to move relative to the bracket 1 along the extension direction of the first support shaft 21, thereby driving the detection mechanism 3 to move to the designated detection area. Inserting the smooth section 212 into the hollow drive rod 321 prevents the drive rod 321 from rotating when the first support shaft 21 rotates, which would affect the detection accuracy. It also reduces the external resistance encountered when the first support shaft 21 rotates, making it easier for operators to operate. Optionally, the first drive mechanism 2 further includes a support slider 23 for fixing the swing frame 31. The support slider 23 is slidably disposed on the smooth section 212, making the connection of the detection mechanism 3 more stable and the force on the swing frame 31 more even during swinging, which is beneficial to improving the reliability of the detection device. Optionally, the transmission assembly 323 includes a first gear 3231 fixedly connected to the circumferential outer wall of the drive rod 321 and a second gear 3232 meshing with the first gear 3231 and fixedly connected to the second support shaft 322. When the operator drives the second knob 324 to rotate, the drive rod 321 rotates and drives the first gear 3231. The first gear 3231 rotates and drives the meshing second gear 3232 to rotate, thereby driving the second support shaft 322 fixedly connected to the second gear 3232 to rotate, thereby adjusting the gap between the conductive probes 34 and thus adjusting the length of the detection area.

[0046] Please refer to further information. Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4In this embodiment, the detection mechanism 3 further includes a support arm 33 disposed on the second support shaft 322 and a conductive probe 34 rotatably disposed on the support arm 33, such that the conductive probe 34 is stably connected to the second support shaft 322, and a detection area for determining whether the conductor under test is located at a specified position is formed between the conductive probes 34; the support arm 33 has a rod-shaped structure, one end of the support arm 33 is threadedly connected to the second support shaft 322, and the other end is rotatably provided with the conductive probe 34; optionally, a U-shaped frame is provided at the end of the support arm 33 connected to the conductive probe 34, and a conductive probe 34 is provided on the U-shaped frame. The pin of probe 34 allows the conductive probe 34 to rotate around the pin. Optionally, the detection mechanism 3 also includes an elastic reset member, one end of which is connected to the support arm 33 and the other end to the conductive probe 34. The elastic reset member is used to hold the conductive probe 34 in its initial position. When the conductive probe 34 rotates relative to the support arm 33 and leaves its initial position, the elastic reset member is used to reset the conductive probe 34. Optionally, the elastic reset member is a tension spring. When the conductive probe 34 rotates relative to the support arm 33, the elastic reset member is stretched to generate elastic force, which helps the conductive probe 34 reset. During the detection process, if the pressure of the conductive probe 34 on the conductor is too large, the conductive probe 34 can move relative to the support arm 33. This allows the conductive probe 34 to make close contact with the conductor while avoiding damage to the conductor or the conductive probe 34 due to excessive force applied by the conductive probe 34. The elastic reset member resets the conductive probe 34, preventing the detection from being interrupted due to the movement of the conductive probe 34 relative to the support arm 33. Optionally, a first fixing frame 251 is fixedly installed on the swing frame 31. The first fixing frame 251 is provided with a centering reference line for centering the conductive probe 34, thereby realizing the centering adjustment of the position of the conductive probe 34, improving the accuracy of the position of the conductive probe 34, and helping to ensure that the heat shrink tubing can be accurately wrapped on the exposed conductor surface of the wire.

[0047] In one embodiment, the second support shaft 322 includes a first threaded portion and a second threaded portion, the thread direction of the first threaded portion and the thread direction of the second threaded portion are opposite, and there are multiple support arms 33, which are threadedly connected to the second support shaft 322. When the second support shaft 322 rotates, the support arms 33 located in the first threaded portion and the support arms 33 located in the second threaded portion can move closer or further apart, thereby adjusting the distance between two adjacent conductive probes 34 and increasing the applicable range. Optionally, the detection mechanism 3 also includes a second measuring component 35, which allows the operator to more intuitively obtain the distance between two adjacent conductive probes 34. The second measuring component 35 includes a second fixed frame 351 fixedly connected to the swing frame 31 and a scale 352 set on the second fixed frame 351 for measuring the distance between two adjacent conductive probes 34. The scale 352 is stably installed in a preset position by the second fixed frame 351, so as to accurately measure the distance between two adjacent conductive probes 34, and further ensure that the heat shrink tubing can be accurately wrapped around the exposed conductor surface of the wire. Optionally, a compression spring is fitted on the second support shaft 322. One end of the compression spring abuts against the swing frame 31, and the other end abuts against the support arm 33. This can eliminate thread clearance, keep the position of the support arm 33 stable, and prevent it from shaking during the detection process, thus affecting the detection effect.

[0048] The present invention also provides a wire processing apparatus, including a wire processing device and the above-mentioned biasable conductor position detection device, wherein the detection device is used to detect the position of the conductor before wire processing. The biasable conductor position detection device has a first driving mechanism 2 on a bracket 1. The first driving mechanism 2 includes a first support shaft 21 rotatably mounted on the bracket 1 and a mounting slider 22 mounted on the first support shaft 21. The mounting slider 22 can move relative to the bracket 1 along the extension direction of the first support shaft 21 when the first support shaft 21 rotates. The detection mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the mounting slider 22 and can be movably set relative to the bracket 1 along the extension direction of the first support shaft 21. It is used to determine whether the conductor under test is located in the detection area of ​​the specified position. By driving the first support shaft 21 to rotate, the mounting slider 22 moves relative to the bracket 1 along the extension direction of the first support shaft 21, thereby driving the detection mechanism 3 to adjust to the specified detection area. When the conductor under test is located in the specified position, multiple conductive probes 34 contact the conductor under test, and the multiple conductive probes 34 can be electrically connected through the conductor under test, so the detection circuit is turned on. If the conductor under test is not in the specified position, the conductive probes 34 cannot all contact the conductor under test, so the detection circuit is turned off. Therefore, by determining whether the detection circuit is connected, it can be judged whether the conductor under test is in the designated position. When the cross-sectional areas of the exposed conductors at both ends of the wires to be spliced ​​in production are different, the position of the detection mechanism 3 is pre-adjusted in the reverse direction to compensate for the offset of the heat shrink tubing, thereby ensuring that the heat shrink tubing is accurately wrapped around the surface of the exposed conductor at the designated position of the wire in subsequent processes, thus increasing the applicability. The specific structure of the wire processing device is not limited here. Optionally, the wire processing device is a wire heat shrinking machine. After the detection device determines that the conductor under test is in the designated position, the conductive probe 34 moves away from the detection area so that the wire processing device can perform processing operations on the wire, fitting the insulating heat shrink tubing onto the wire and covering the surface of the exposed conductor.

[0049] In one embodiment, the wire processing equipment further includes a housing fixedly connected to the bracket 1. The housing is provided with a reference mark, and a centering reference line is provided on the first fixed frame 251 of the swing frame 31. The reference mark on the housing can cooperate with the centering reference line fixed on the first fixed frame 251 to measure the offset of the detection mechanism 3. When the detection mechanism 3 is offset, the centering reference line on the first fixed frame 251 is offset by an equal amount relative to the reference mark on the housing, so as to accurately measure the offset of the detection mechanism 3 and further ensure that the heat shrink tubing can be accurately wrapped around the exposed conductor surface of the wire.

[0050] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this embodiment and is not intended to limit this embodiment. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this embodiment should be included within the protection scope of this embodiment.
