Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of rigging processing, and in particular provides a rigging upper rope rotary buckle device based on a press. Background Art

[0002] Wire rope slings are made by bending the end of a wire rope back, putting a noose on it, and then pressing it with a press. Wire rope slings have many application scenarios and flexible and varied usage methods. They are widely used in industrial fields such as ships, lifting equipment, and traction equipment.

[0003] In the existing wire rope rigging buckling process, the rope winding, transportation and bending of the wire rope are all done manually. For small-diameter wire ropes, completing these two tasks is not difficult. However, if the wire rope has a thicker diameter, at least six experienced and skilled workers are required to manually complete the transportation and bending work. Even if multiple people work together, it is still very laborious to bend the thicker wire rope. If the wire rope slips out of the hands during the work, the high-speed rebound of the wire rope may cause injury. Summary of the Invention

[0039] As mentioned above, the die base 1 and gripper assembly of this equipment need to be used in conjunction with an external press.

[0040] When staff use this equipment, the operation process is as follows:

[0041] 1. After confirming that the horizontal displacement mechanisms 2, lifting mechanisms 3, and slewing mechanisms 4 on both sides have been reset (the horizontal movable base 203 of the horizontal displacement mechanism 2 on the fixed gripper side is located at the end away from the press, the horizontal movable base 203 of the horizontal displacement mechanism 2 on the movable gripper side is located at the end close to the press, the rotating gripper support plate 402 of the slewing mechanism 4 is vertically downward, and the height of the lifting mechanism 3 ensures that the movable gripper 5 and the mold core of the lower mold base 101 are aligned), place the noose for pressing the wire rope into the mold core 103 of the mold base 1;

[0042] 2. The staff places the wire rope on the fixed gripper, controls the fixed gripper to clamp the wire rope, starts the horizontal displacement mechanism 2 on the fixed gripper side, drives the wire rope to pass through the press and the rope loop on the lower die base 101, and then extends to the movable gripper. Control the movable gripper to clamp the end of the wire rope. After controlling the fixed gripper to release the wire rope, control the fixed gripper and the horizontal displacement mechanism 2 on the movable gripper side to move toward the outer end at the same time, and drag the wire rope further into the equipment. After the horizontal displacement mechanism 2 on the movable gripper side moves to the farthest end, the fixed gripper is clamped and the movable gripper is released. Control the fixed gripper and the horizontal displacement mechanism 2 on the movable gripper side to move toward the inner end at the same time, and repeat this process until enough length is reserved on the movable gripper side (enough wire rope to bend back and insert into the rope loop).

[0043] 3. Control the motor 401 to rotate, driving the rotary gripper support plate 402, the gripper 5, and one end of the wire rope clamped therein to rotate 180°. Then, control the horizontal displacement mechanism 2 to adjust the position of the overlapping portion of the wire rope so that it is located between the lower die base 101 and the upper die base 102.

[0044] 4. Start the press to drive the upper die base 102 and the lower die base 101 to press together, squeeze the molded cable sleeve to complete the rigging buckle work, and after pressing, the wire rope and the cable sleeve form a rigging structure.

[0045] 5. After the press is controlled to drive the upper die base 102 to reset, the movable gripper is controlled to release the wire rope. Since the gripper 5 is at the highest point at this time, the wire rope will naturally fall off after the gripper 5 is released. The horizontal displacement mechanism 2 on the fixed gripper side is controlled to move and pull out the rigging end of the wire rope. After the fixed gripper is controlled to release, the staff removes the processed wire rope with rigging. Finally, all mechanisms are reset to start the next round of rigging buckle processing.

[0046] The above content is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, according to the concept of the present invention, many changes can be made in the specific implementation method and application scope. As long as these changes do not deviate from the concept of the present invention, they all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
