[0034] This invention relates to a detection device for detecting the position of a conductor, a wire processing equipment, and a method for detecting the position of a conductor during wire processing. Multiple conductive probes are placed in a detection circuit. When the conductor is in a designated position, the multiple conductive probes can contact the conductor, and the probes are electrically connected through the conductor, thus activating the detection circuit. If the conductor is not in the designated position, not all the conductive probes can contact the conductor, and the detection circuit is disconnected. Therefore, the conductor's position can be determined based on whether the detection circuit is activated. The activation of the detection circuit can be indicated by light or sound devices, such as a light or sound alarm. If the detection circuit is activated, the light illuminates or the sound alarm sounds to alert the operator. Furthermore, the electrical signal after the detection circuit is activated can be used as a condition for the next processing step. When the detection circuit is activated, it outputs an electrical signal, and the host computer controls the next processing equipment to continue operating based on the signal. If the detection circuit is not activated, it does not output an electrical signal, and the host computer controls the next processing equipment to stop operating.

[0035] The detection device, wire processing equipment, and method for detecting conductor position in wire processing of this invention can automatically detect whether the conductor is in a designated position, providing a foundation for further automated wire processing. By swinging the conductive probe through a swing mechanism, the conductive probe can be swung to the detection position and then removed from the detection position after detection, preventing the conductive probe from affecting subsequent processing operations. The conductive probe and the swing arm can be movably arranged relative to each other. During detection, if the pressure of the conductive probe on the conductor is too high, the conductive probe moves relative to the swing arm, ensuring close contact between the conductive probe and the conductor while preventing damage to the conductor or the conductive probe due to excessive force. An elastic reset device helps the conductive probe reset, preventing detection from being interrupted due to the conductive probe's movement relative to the swing arm. The elastic reset device uses a tension spring, making the structure of this invention simple and easy to implement. The main shaft serves as the support structure for the swing arm, allowing the swing arm to swing and be installed, resulting in a simple and easy-to-implement structure. The addition of a secondary shaft enables axial linkage between the mounting base and the transmission block, allowing the technical solution of this invention to be implemented. Mounting seats are positioned on both sides of the transmission block and connected to the main shaft via reverse threads, allowing adjustment of the mounting seat spacing as the main shaft rotates. A compression spring is fitted onto the main shaft to eliminate thread backlash, ensuring stable positioning and preventing wobbling during testing that could affect results. The use of a cylinder as the drive mechanism is easy to implement and structurally simple. Attached Figure Description

[0041] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of a detection circuit according to the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0042] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a detection device 100 for detecting the position of a conductor includes a bracket 110, a conductive probe 140, and a detection circuit 150. The bracket 110 supports other structures, and its specific structure can be determined based on other components. In the example shown, the bracket 110 is approximately U-shaped. A spindle 111 is mounted on the bracket 110. The spindle 111 is rotatably mounted on the bracket 110. Handles 112 are connected to both ends of the spindle 111. The handles 112 are located on the outside of the bracket 110. A locking block 113 is also mounted on the spindle 111. The locking block 113 is fitted onto the spindle 111. The locking block 113 is used to abut against one end of a compression spring 123 (described later). Its structure can be adapted to be fixed on the spindle 111 and abut against the compression spring 123. Preferably, the locking block 113 is positioned adjustablely on the spindle 111. The locking block 113 can be adjusted in position on the main shaft 111 to accommodate different compression springs, and the spring force of the compression spring 123 can also be adjusted to achieve the best compression effect. Figure 4In the example shown, the locking block 113 is cylindrical. The locking block 113 is fitted onto the spindle 111. The locking block 113 has an axial through hole 114. The locking block 113 has a first notch 115. The first notch 115 extends radially to the axial through hole 114, forming a first protrusion 116 and a second protrusion 117 that are interconnected. A second notch 118 is provided on the first protrusion 116. The second notch 118 extends radially to the axial through hole 114, dividing the first protrusion 116 into two interconnected sub-protrusions 119. A screw 121 is threaded into the sub-protrusions 119, connecting the two sub-protrusions 119. Tightening the screw 121, moving the two sub-protrusions 119 closer together or further apart, opens or closes the second notch 118. When the locking block 113 is in the appropriate position, turning the screw 121 will cause the two sub-protrusions 119 to clamp the spindle 111, thus fixing the locking block 113 in that position. If it is necessary to adjust the position of the locking block 113, turning the screw 121 will reduce the clamping force of the two sub-protrusions 119 on the spindle 111, and the locking block 113 can then be adjusted to change its position on the spindle 111.

[0043] The spindle 111 has two reverse threads (not shown in the figure), with opposite directions of rotation. Two mounting seats 122 are fitted onto the spindle 111. Each mounting seat 122 has two reverse threads that thread into the spindle 111. Due to the reverse threads, when the spindle 111 is rotated while the mounting seats 122 are not rotating, the two mounting seats 122 will move closer together and further apart. This arrangement allows adjustment of the distance between the two mounting seats 122. Two compression springs 123 are fitted onto the spindle 111. Each compression spring 123 is located between one of the mounting seats 122 and the locking block 113. One end of the compression spring 123 abuts against the locking block 113, and the other end abuts against the mounting seat 122. When compressed, the compression spring 123 has elastic force, which acts on the mounting seat 122, helping to keep the mounting seat 122 stable.

[0044] A transmission block 124 is also mounted on the main shaft 111. The transmission block 124 is rotatable. The transmission block 124 is located between two mounting seats 122. A secondary shaft 125 passes through the two mounting seats 122 and the transmission block 124, causing the two mounting seats 122 and the transmission block 124 to be circumferentially linked. That is, when one of the three rotates, the other two can be driven to rotate through the secondary shaft 125. In the example shown in the figure, there are two secondary shafts 125, which are spaced apart.

[0045] The detection device 100 for detecting the position of a conductor in this invention also includes a driving device. The driving device drives the transmission block 124 to rotate. In the example shown, the driving device is a cylinder 126. The cylinder 126 has a piston rod 127. The piston rod 127 is telescopically oriented. The cylinder 126 is connected to the bracket 110 via a second pin 128 and can rotate about the second pin 128. The piston rod 127 is connected to the transmission block 124 via a third pin 129. The piston rod 127 and the transmission block 124 can rotate relative to each other. When the piston rod 127 extends or retracts, it pulls the transmission block 124 to rotate about the main shaft 111. When the transmission block 124 rotates, it drives the two mounting seats 122 to rotate about the main shaft 111 via the secondary shaft 125.

[0046] The detection device 100 for detecting the position of a conductor in this invention further includes a swing arm 141. The swing arm 141 is used to mount a conductive probe 140 and is connected to a mounting base 122 to drive the conductive probe 140 to swing. The swing arm 141 has a generally rod-shaped structure. One end 142 of the swing arm 141 is insulated from the mounting base 122, and the other end is connected to the conductive probe 140. The conductive probe 140 is rotatably connected to the swing arm 141 relative to it. In the preferred example shown, a U-shaped bracket 144 is provided at the other end of the swing arm 141. A first pin 145 is mounted on the U-shaped bracket 144.

[0047] The conductive probe 140 is structured to connect with the swing arm 141 and to contact the exposed conductor of the wire. The conductive probe 140 extends from one end 1401 to the other end 1402. The middle portion of the conductive probe 140 is located within the U-shaped frame 144. One end 1401 and the other end 1402 of the conductive probe 140 protrude outwards from the U-shaped frame 144, respectively. A first pin 145 passes through the conductive probe 140. The conductive probe 140 is rotatable about the first pin 145. The conductive probe 140 contacts and is electrically connected to the swing arm 141. A resilient reset device is also provided on the swing arm 141 to hold the conductive probe 140 in its initial state. When the conductive probe 140 rotates relative to the swing arm 141 and leaves its initial state, the resilient reset device resets the conductive probe 140. In the example shown, the resilient reset device is a tension spring 146. One end 1461 of the tension spring 146 is connected to the swing arm 141, and the other end 1462 is connected to the other end 1402 of the conductive probe 140. When the conductive probe 140 rotates relative to the swing arm 141, the tension spring 146 is stretched and generates a spring force, which helps the conductive probe 140 to return to its original position.

[0048] In the example shown, two swing arms 141 and two conductive probes 140 are provided. As the distance between the two mounting bases 122 increases or decreases, the distance between the two conductive probes 140 also increases or decreases.

[0049] In the above embodiments, the cylinder 126, transmission block 124, countershaft 125, mounting base 122, and swing arm 141 form a swing mechanism for driving the conductive probe 140 to swing. When the conductive probe 140 swings, it can swing to the detection position.

[0050] like Figure 5 As shown, when this invention is used to detect the position of a conductor, two bundles of wires 200 each expose a portion of their conductors. The exposed conductors 201 of the two bundles of wires 200 are connected, and then the connected wires 200 are placed in the processing position. The cylinder 126 drives the swing arm 141 to swing around the main shaft 111 via the transmission block 124, the sub-shaft, and the mounting base 122, swinging the conductive probe 140 to the detection position. The detection position is located on the swing path of the conductive probe 140, and can be any position suitable for subsequent processing steps. According to a predetermined condition, at this detection position, the conductive probe 140 can fully contact and electrically connect with the exposed conductors 201, thereby activating the detection circuit 150. After the conductive probe 140 reaches the detection position, the circuit 150 is activated to determine whether the wire 200 is in the designated position. When both conductive probes 140 are in contact with the exposed conductor 201, the detection circuit 150 is activated, indicating that the conductor 201 is located at the designated position. When neither conductive probe 140 is in contact with the exposed conductor 201, the detection circuit 150 is deactivated, indicating that the conductor 201 is not located at the designated position. The activation or deactivation of the detection circuit 150 can be indicated by light or sound devices, such as a light or sound alarm. If the detection circuit 150 is activated, the light will illuminate or the sound alarm will sound to alert the operator. Alternatively, the electrical signal from the activated detection circuit 150 can be used as a condition for the next processing step. When the detection circuit 150 is activated, it outputs an electrical signal, and the host computer controls the next processing equipment to continue operating based on this signal. If the detection circuit 150 is deactivated, it does not output an electrical signal, and the host computer controls the next processing equipment to stop operating.

[0051] Figure 6 A schematic diagram of a detection circuit 150 is shown. The detection circuit 150 includes a power supply 151 and a lamp 152, which are electrically connected. Conductive probes 140 can be electrically connected to the detection circuit 150 either via a swing arm 141 or via a wire. When the exposed conductor 201 electrically connects the two conductive probes 140, the detection circuit 150 is turned on, and the lamp 152 illuminates. When the exposed conductor 201 is not in contact with the two conductive probes 140, and the conductive probes 140 are not electrically connected, the detection circuit 150 is turned off, and the lamp 152 does not illuminate.

[0052] This invention uses the connection and processing of two bundles of wires 200 as an example. Each bundle of wires can be one or more. The detection device for detecting conductor position in this invention can be used to detect both exposed conductors with insulated wires and conductors without insulated wires. When using the detection device for detecting conductor position, the conductive probe 140 can be pre-positioned at the detection position, and after detection, the swing arm 141 can be used to swing the conductive probe 140 away from the detection position. Because of the tension spring 146, the conductive probe 140 can either move towards the wire 200 or strike the conductor 201 and then pass over it. When the conductive probe 140 strikes the conductor 201, the conductive probe 140 rotates around the first pin 145 and passes over the conductor 201.

[0053] The detection device for detecting conductor position in this invention can be applied in wire processing, forming a wire processing equipment together with a heat shrink machine. The detection device for detecting conductor position detects whether the exposed conductor is in a designated position. If the conductor is in the designated position, the heat shrink machine operates, fitting an insulating heat shrink sleeve onto the wire and covering the exposed conductor.

[0054] The present invention also provides a method for detecting the guide position during wire processing, comprising:

[0055] The wire to be processed is fixed, and the wire to be processed includes an exposed conductor;

[0056] Detecting whether the exposed conductor is located at a specified position; and

[0057] If the exposed conductor is not in the designated position, the position of the exposed conductor is adjusted and the test is repeated until the exposed conductor is in the designated position.

[0058] Furthermore, the detection method also includes:

[0059] Set up a detection circuit; and

[0060] When the conductor is in the designated position, the detection circuit is electrically connected through the exposed conductor. The detection circuit determines whether the wire being processed is in the designated position by checking whether it is connected.

[0061] This invention relates to a detection device for detecting the position of a conductor, a wire processing equipment, and a method for detecting the position of a conductor during wire processing. Multiple conductive probes are placed in a detection circuit. When the conductor is in a designated position, the multiple conductive probes can contact the conductor, and the probes are electrically connected through the conductor, thus activating the detection circuit. If the conductor is not in the designated position, not all the conductive probes can contact the conductor, and the detection circuit is disconnected. Therefore, the conductor's position can be determined based on whether the detection circuit is activated. The activation of the detection circuit can be indicated by light or sound devices, such as a light or sound alarm. If the detection circuit is activated, the light illuminates or the sound alarm sounds to alert the operator. Furthermore, the electrical signal after the detection circuit is activated can be used as a condition for the next processing step. When the detection circuit is activated, it outputs an electrical signal, and the host computer controls the next processing equipment to continue operating based on the signal. If the detection circuit is not activated, it does not output an electrical signal, and the host computer controls the next processing equipment to stop operating.

[0062] The detection device, wire processing equipment, and method for detecting conductor position in wire processing of this invention can automatically detect whether the conductor is in a designated position, providing a foundation for further automated wire processing. By swinging the conductive probe through a swing mechanism, the conductive probe can be swung to the detection position and then removed from the detection position after detection, preventing the conductive probe from affecting subsequent processing operations. The conductive probe and the swing arm can be movably arranged relative to each other. During detection, if the pressure of the conductive probe on the conductor is too high, the conductive probe moves relative to the swing arm, ensuring close contact between the conductive probe and the conductor while preventing damage to the conductor or the conductive probe due to excessive force. An elastic reset device helps the conductive probe reset, preventing detection from being interrupted due to the conductive probe's movement relative to the swing arm. The elastic reset device uses a tension spring, making the structure of this invention simple and easy to implement. The main shaft serves as the support structure for the swing arm, allowing the swing arm to swing and be installed, resulting in a simple and easy-to-implement structure. The addition of a secondary shaft enables axial linkage between the mounting base and the transmission block, allowing the technical solution of this invention to be implemented. Mounting seats are positioned on both sides of the transmission block and connected to the main shaft via reverse threads, allowing adjustment of the mounting seat spacing as the main shaft rotates. A compression spring is fitted onto the main shaft to eliminate thread backlash, ensuring stable positioning and preventing wobbling during testing that could affect results. The use of a cylinder as the drive mechanism is easy to implement and structurally simple.

[0063] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions or improvements within the spirit of the present invention are covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
