Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of braiding machines, and in particular to a full-automatic braiding machine for braiding wire tapes. Background Art

[0002] Taping machines are mainly used to tape scattered lead-type electronic components such as (capacitors, diodes, transistors and inductors, etc.). During the taping process of electronic components, the pins of the electronic components must be in the same direction and taped in series to facilitate the transportation, production, processing and use of electronic components. At present, the taping machine of the prior art is composed of a feeding mechanism, an adjustment mechanism and a taping mechanism. The taping machines on the market currently transmit the basic raw materials for preparing sensor elements - the taping of double parallel lines, which is still in the state of manual alignment, arrangement, bonding and stacking. Manual taping is inefficient. Secondly, for products such as wires, the components are small in size and it is difficult to stack them accurately by the naked eye. The stacking accuracy directly affects the component processing in subsequent processes. For example, in the manufacture of sensors with connecting wires, one of the preparation processes is the taping of double parallel line products. After the stripping and tinning actions of the feeder, a fixed length of double parallel lines is formed. Then the double parallel line products are taped. In the prior art, manual taping is performed by hand. The problems of inaccurate positioning and efficiency will always affect the subsequent processes.

[0030] In order to more clearly illustrate the present invention, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0031] In the following description, general election example details are given to provide a deeper understanding of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0032] It should be understood that when the terms "comprise" and or "include" are used in this specification, they indicate the existence of the stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements or components, but do not exclude the existence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components or combinations thereof.

[0033] In the prior art, fully automatic braiding machines mostly use a vibrating plate to load materials. This is because the products that can be automatically braided by the current braiding machines are mainly regular products such as balls and cubes. The braiding structure is loaded through grooved plates of corresponding shapes, which can be grabbed and stacked by a negative pressure mechanical arm. However, due to the softness of wire products and the characteristics of long wires and small diameters, wire products cannot be braided on traditional braiding machines, because vacuum adsorption cannot completely and accurately grasp them, and the corresponding placement position cannot be accurately positioned and stacked, so the braiding of wires is mostly stacked manually. In addition, the current semi-automatic wire braiding machines all use cardboard sleeves to wrap the wires for braiding, which causes a lot of cardboard waste. In view of this situation, there is an urgent need for a fully automatic wire braiding machine.

[0034] The present invention provides a fully automatic tape braiding machine for wire tape braiding, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 4, including a mounting frame 1, and a braiding plate moving assembly 2 and a wire clamp moving assembly 3 installed on the mounting frame, the braiding plate moving assembly 2 is used to carry and move the braiding plate 4, a wire clamp assembly 5 is also arranged above the braiding plate 4, the wire clamp assembly 5 is movably mounted on the wire clamp moving assembly 2, and the moving direction of the wire clamp moving assembly 2 is arranged parallel to the moving direction of the braiding plate moving assembly 2; so that both the two braiding plates and the wire clamp assembly can be moved, and the wire can be quickly placed on the braiding plate; the wire clamp assembly is used to clamp and move the wire to the braiding plate; wherein, a rubber hammer 6 is also arranged on the mounting frame 1, and an adhesive tape 61 is also arranged between the rubber hammer 6 and the braiding plate 4, and the rubber hammer 6 is used to press the adhesive tape 61 onto the braiding plate 4 after bonding the wire 7. The wire clamp assembly fixes the wire in the length direction by clamping both ends of the wire, so that the product forms a regular product state, and then stacks the wire on the braiding board, and moves both the wire clamp assembly and the braiding board to achieve fast and accurate regular stacking, and then uses a rubber hammer to compact the tape, wire and braiding board to make the overall structure stable and the position accurate.

[0035] In this example, see Figure 2 The tape plate moving assembly 2 includes a tape plate slide rail 21 and a push plate assembly 22. The push plate assembly 22 is arranged on one side of the tape plate slide rail 21. A bearing platform is slidably arranged on the tape plate slide rail 21. The push plate assembly 22 is used to push the stacked tape plates 4 onto the bearing platform. The tape plate slide rail 21 is arranged in parallel with the wire clamp moving assembly. The tape plate is a reusable plate material, which is more commonly used in tape equipment with a high degree of automation. Its stacking rules and sequence are relatively neat, the structure is stable, and the degree of adhesion is high, which is conducive to subsequent processing.

[0036] In this example, see Figure 3 The wire clamp moving assembly 3 includes a first slide rail 31 and a second slide rail 32; the wire clamp assembly 5 includes a wire clamping mechanism 51 and a fixing mechanism 52. The first slide rail 31 is located above the braiding plate slide rail 21. The wire clamping mechanism 51 is slidably connected to the first slide rail 31. The second slide rail 32 is located on the side of the braiding plate slide rail 21 away from the push plate assembly 22. The fixing mechanism 52 is slidably connected to the second slide rail 32. The wire clamping mechanism 51 and the fixing mechanism 52 clamp the tail end and the head end of the wire respectively. It is worth noting that the wire is stripped by a tinning machine during the sign-in process. The wires are tinned and cut into equal lengths by a feeder and transported to a wire clamping mechanism for braiding; after the wires pass through the wire clamping mechanism, the head end of the wires is clamped by a fixing mechanism, and then the tail end of the wires is fixed by the wire clamping mechanism, forming a state where the wires span the braiding board, and then the wire clamping mechanism and fixing mechanism move synchronously to stably place the wires on the braiding board under the rubber hammer, and then the rubber hammer presses down to bond the wires with the tape, and then fixes them on the braiding board; then the wire clamping mechanism and the fixing mechanism repeatedly move to take the wires, and then the braiding of multiple groups of wires can be completed.

[0037] In this example, see Figure 4 , Figure 7 The wire clamping mechanism 51 includes a fixed straight rod 511 and a rotating straight rod 512, wherein the rotating straight rod 512 is arranged in parallel with the fixed straight rod 511, wherein the tail end of the rotating straight rod 512 is connected to a rotating motor to form a circumferential rotational motion of the rotating straight rod. When the rotating straight rod rotates circumferentially, the distance between the rotating straight rod and the fixed straight rod changes to clamp or release the wire. Since the rotating straight rod does not rotate with the fixed straight rod as the rotation axis, the distance between the fixed straight rod and the rotating straight rod will change when rotating circumferentially. When the distance is close, the wire is clamped, and when the distance is rotated to a greater distance, the gap is opened to release the wire. This structure is particularly suitable for wire drawing and fixing, and is different from the clamping mechanism in the prior art. By designing in this way, there will be no interference in the initial wire-laying direction of the wire, and only the wire will be clamped and released. Preferably, a gear is provided at the tail end of the rotating straight rod to mesh with the output end of the rotating motor, and the gear is a fan-shaped gear to limit the range of its rotation, thereby stabilizing the mechanical structure so that all strokes are effectively formed, thereby forming an axial rotation of the reciprocating stroke.

[0038] In this example, see Figure 4 The fixing mechanism 52 includes a wire dividing plate 521 and a wire presser 522, the wire presser 522 is provided with a slot adapted to the wire dividing plate 521, the wire presser 522 is provided with a motor perpendicular to the second slide rail, and the wire dividing plate is slidably connected to the second slide rail; wherein, the wire dividing plate 521 is also provided with a groove 5211 for placing the wire 7; when the wire first passes through the wire clamping mechanism, it is placed in the groove of the wire dividing plate, and then the wire presser presses down to fix the head end of the wire, and at the same time the wire clamping mechanism clamps the wire; so that both ends of the wire are fixed; the softness of the wire is fully taken into consideration, and this method has a small contact area with the wire, which can well guarantee the performance of the wire; at the same time, it can well ensure that the wire is fixed.

[0039] In this example, see Figure 1-Figure 6 The clamping mechanism 51 reciprocates on the first slide rail 31 and includes an initial position and an end position. The end position is located between the tape and the braiding plate 4; the initial position is located at the end of the first slide rail away from the rubber hammer. The initial position is the end of the clamping mechanism for clamping the wire; and the end position is the end of the movement of the clamping mechanism. Because of the existence of the tape, the stroke cannot be exceeded to avoid touching the tape; preferably, a tape pay-off wheel is also included, and the tape pay-off wheel 62 is used to pay off the tape; at the same time, a cutting knife 8 is provided on the side of the rubber hammer 6 close to the bearing platform, and the cutting knife 8 is used to cut the tape.

[0040] In this embodiment, a clamping robot 9 is arranged between the cutting knife 8 and the rubber hammer 6. The clamping robot 9 is connected to the mounting frame 1 through a translation cylinder. The translation cylinder pushes the clamping robot to move close to the braiding board slide rail. The clamping robot is used to clamp the tape and the braiding board; the clamping robot controls the opening and closing of the robot through a servo motor, and then when the braiding board completes the last braiding, the end of the tape and the braiding board are clamped, and then the cutting knife performs the overall cutting, and finally the material transport robot 10 is used to transport the material.

[0041] Workflow

[0042] It also includes a central control system for controlling the movement gap of each working mechanism. The previous process transports the wires cut into equal lengths to the wire clamping mechanism. At this time, the push plate assembly pushes the unloaded braiding plate onto the braiding plate slide rail, and then moves to the bottom of the rubber hammer. The rubber hammer first hammers the side of the braiding plate away from the wire clamping mechanism to fix the tape on the braiding plate; the head end of the wire is placed in the groove, the wire presser presses down to fix the head end of the wire, and the rotating straight rod rotates to clamp the tail end of the wire, thereby fixing the two ends of the wire, and then the wire is moved along the first slide rail and the second slide rail to the braiding plate The rubber hammer presses down again to cover the tape on the surface of the wire and fix it; the wire clamping mechanism reciprocates in this stroke to complete the arrangement and stacking of multiple groups of wires. When the last group is completed, the clamping robot moves forward, then clamps the tape and the braiding board, and the cutting knife moves downward to cut the tape; after completion, the material transport robot takes away the fully loaded braiding board for the next process; after the next braiding board is delivered to the location, the clamping robot releases the tape to make the tape fall, and then the rubber hammer hits and bonds it to the braiding board, thereby carrying out the wire braiding work of the next braiding board.

[0043] The technical effects of the present invention are:

[0044] 1. It can cooperate with the soft characteristics of the wire to ensure the clamping stability and product performance of the wire, so that it will not fall or break during transportation, and meet the requirements of fully automatic braiding;

[0045] 2. The wires can be stacked regularly on the braiding board, realizing the full automation of the braiding of wire products.

[0046] The above disclosures are only several specific embodiments of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
