Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wire processing equipment, and more specifically, to an electric wire stripping device for insulated wires. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, all wire stripping methods involve peeling the insulation off the wire. These methods primarily include stripping the insulation from the ends of rigid plastic wires, polyethylene wires, and sheathed wires. Taking the stripping method for rigid plastic wires as an example, depending on the length of insulation to be stripped, lightly cut the insulation layer with pliers (without damaging the core wire). Then, hold the pliers with your right hand and pull outwards to remove the insulation layer, while simultaneously gripping the wire with your left hand and applying counter-force. This will remove part of the insulation layer, exposing the core wire. Then, peel off the remaining insulation layer from the core wire and use the pliers to cut off the remaining insulation.

[0003] The inventors discovered through research that existing wire stripping equipment for insulated wires has the following drawbacks:

[0004] Manually controlling the thickness and force of wire stripping is inefficient and can easily damage the core wire. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an electric wire stripping device for insulated wires, which can improve the degree of automation, increase work efficiency, and is less likely to damage the core wire.

[0006] The embodiments of the present invention are implemented as follows:

[0007] This invention provides an electric wire stripping device for insulated wires, comprising:

[0008] The device comprises a substrate, a driver, a stripping head, a limiting mechanism, and a positioning mechanism. The driver, the limiting mechanism, and the positioning mechanism are all mounted on the substrate. The stripping head is connected to the driver, which drives the stripping head to rotate. The limiting mechanism is movably connected to the substrate and is used to adjust the length of the stripping head exposed outside the limiting mechanism. The positioning mechanism is used to clamp the insulated wire to be processed.

[0009] In an optional embodiment, the limiting mechanism includes a limiting member and a locking member. The limiting member is slidably connected to the base, and the locking member is connected to both the limiting member and the base for switching between a locked state and an unlocked state. In the locked state, the limiting member is relatively fixed to the base, and in the unlocked state, the limiting member can slide relative to the base.

[0010] In an optional embodiment, the limiting member has two limiting portions, and the stripping head is located between the two limiting portions and can protrude from the two limiting portions; both limiting portions are used to contact the insulated wire to be treated, so as to control the depth of the stripping head inserted into the insulated wire to be treated.

[0011] In an optional embodiment, the limiting member is configured as an arc-shaped plate with a superior arc cross-sectional profile. The inner arc surface of the arc-shaped plate is attached to the outside of the base. The locking member is sleeved on the outside of the base, and the arc-shaped plate is clamped between the base and the locking member. Both limiting parts are located on the end face of the limiting member away from the base. The diameter of the locking member is adjustable to switch between the locked state and the unlocked state.

[0012] In an optional embodiment, the limiting member is provided with a scratch-resistant layer for contacting the insulated wire to be treated.

[0013] In an optional embodiment, the substrate is provided with scale lines for obtaining the relative position of the limiting member.

[0014] In an optional embodiment, the positioning mechanism includes a movable latch connected to the substrate, the movable latch being used to abut against the insulated wire to be treated, thereby restricting the insulated wire from moving away from the stripping head.

[0015] In an optional embodiment, the movable latch is slidably connected to the substrate to adjust the distance between the movable latch and the stripping head.

[0016] In an optional embodiment, the movable buckle is provided with a guide groove, and a locking screw is screwed onto the base. The locking screw passes through the guide groove and is used to press the movable buckle onto the base.

[0017] In an optional embodiment, the movable latch is configured as a metal spring clip, the movable latch having a tendency to move the insulated wire to be treated closer to the stripping head.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present invention are:

[0019] In summary, this embodiment provides an electric wire stripping device for insulated wires. The wire is aligned with the stripping head according to the length of the insulation layer to be stripped. A limiting mechanism is adjusted to control the extension length of the stripping head; that is, the extension length of the stripping head beyond the limiting mechanism is consistent with the thickness of the insulation layer. Then, a positioning mechanism positions the wire at the stripping head. The operator holds the base and starts the driver, which rotates the stripping head, simultaneously bringing the stripping head and guide closer together. The stripping head then penetrates the insulation layer. Next, the base and wire rotate one revolution around the wire's axis, cutting the insulation layer. The driver is then turned off. The base then slides the cut insulation layer towards the end of the guide wire, and the stripping head pushes the insulation layer out of the core wire, completing the stripping of the insulation layer. The limiting mechanism allows for precise control of the depth of the stripping head's penetration into the insulation layer, reducing the probability of damage to the core wire. Furthermore, the stripping head is driven by a driver, which is highly automated. The operator only needs to control the relative position of the wire and the stripping device, and then use the stripping head to cut into the insulation layer. The operation is time-saving and labor-saving, with low labor intensity and improved work efficiency. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0027] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the invention.

[0028] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0029] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product of this invention is in use. They are only for the convenience of describing this 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, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this invention. In addition, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0030] Furthermore, terms such as "horizontal" and "vertical" do not imply that components must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that they can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0032] Currently, in some situations, it is necessary to strip the insulation layer of wires to expose the core wire covered by the insulation layer, making it easier to connect. In existing technology, pliers or electrician's knives are generally used to strip the insulation layer. This requires the worker to hold the wire in one hand and the pliers in the other, working like sharpening a pencil, first stripping part of the insulation layer, then cutting off the remaining portion. Multiple cuts are usually required to complete the stripping operation, resulting in high labor intensity, low efficiency, and difficulty in manually controlling the force and stripping depth. Furthermore, the pliers can easily come into direct contact with the core wire, causing damage.

[0033] In view of this, the designers have provided an electric wire stripping device for insulated wires, which is highly automated, can reduce labor intensity, improve work efficiency, and is less likely to damage the core wire.

[0034] Please combine Figures 1-3 In this embodiment, the electric wire stripping device includes a base 100, a driver 200, a stripping head 300, a limiting mechanism 400, and a positioning mechanism 500. The driver 200, limiting mechanism 400, and positioning mechanism 500 are all mounted on the base 100. The stripping head 300 is connected to the driver 200, which drives the stripping head 300 to rotate. The limiting mechanism 400 is movably connected to the base 100 and is used to adjust the length of the stripping head 300 exposed outside the limiting mechanism 400. The positioning mechanism 500 is used to clamp the insulated wire 001 to be processed.

[0035] The working principle of the electric wire stripping device for insulated wires provided in this embodiment is as follows:

[0036] Before stripping the insulation layer, adjust the position of the limiting mechanism 400 relative to the stripping head 300 according to the thickness of the insulation layer of the wire. Ensure that the length of the stripping head 300 protruding from the limiting mechanism 400 is no greater than the thickness of the insulation layer; generally, adjust it so that the protruding length of the stripping head 300 is consistent with the thickness of the insulation layer. Then, hold the substrate 100 with one hand and the insulated wire with the other, positioning the insulated wire 001 to be processed between the stripping head 300 and the positioning mechanism 500. The positioning mechanism 500 restricts the insulated wire from moving away from the stripping head 300, ensuring that the relative position of the insulated wire and the stripping head 300 remains stable during the insulation stripping process. Then, start the driver 200, causing it to move the stripping head 300. Apply force with both hands to bring the stripping head 300 closer to the insulated wire, using the stripping head 300 to insert into the insulated wire and cut it. When the insulated wire approaches the stripping head 300 and abuts against the limiting mechanism 400, the stripping head 300 essentially penetrates the insulation layer. At this point, the insulated wire and the stripping device are rotated relative to each other, for example, the stripping device rotates around the insulated wire one revolution, cutting off one revolution of the insulation layer. The stripped insulation layer is separated from the remaining insulation layer on the wire and thus separated. Then, the driver 200 can be turned off, and force is applied to the base 100 and the insulated wire to move them away from each other. The stripping head 300 moves the cut insulation layer toward the end of the wire, eventually separating it from the core wire, completing the wire stripping operation.

[0037] During the wire stripping process, the driver 200 drives the stripping head 300 to move, which is highly automated, reduces labor intensity, saves time and effort, and is highly efficient. In addition, the limiting mechanism 400 limits the depth of the stripping head 300 into the insulation layer, avoids damage to the core wire, and improves the safety and reliability of wire stripping.

[0038] In this embodiment, optionally, the base 100 can be a cylindrical structure for easy gripping, and anti-slip structures such as anti-slip sleeves or anti-slip textures can be provided on the base 100. When the operator grips the anti-slip structure, it is less likely to slip, ensuring high safety during operation. A chamber extending axially can be provided inside the base 100, with the driver 200 embedded within the chamber. The stripping blade 300 is connected to the driver 200 and exposed at one end of the chamber. Furthermore, a battery pack is also provided within the chamber. The battery pack can be installed into the chamber from the other end and is electrically connected to the driver 200 via a power cable, providing power to the driver 200. The battery pack can be a rechargeable battery or a dry cell battery, etc.

[0039] In this embodiment, optionally, the driver 200 can be a motor, and the output shaft of the motor is connected to the peeling head 300, which can drive the peeling head 300 to rotate. The peeling head 300 can be welded to the outside of the output shaft, or connected to the outside of the output shaft through a coupling or the like.

[0040] In this embodiment, optionally, the limiting mechanism 400 includes a limiting member 410 and a locking member 420. The limiting member 410 is slidably connected to the base 100 in the axial direction of the base 100, thereby adjusting the position of the limiting member 410 relative to the peeling head 300, and thus changing the length of the protrusion of the peeling head 300. The locking member 420 is connected to both the limiting member 410 and the base 100, and is used to switch between a locked state and an unlocked state. When in the locked state, the limiting member 410 is relatively fixed to the base 100; when in the unlocked state, the limiting member 410 can slide relative to the base 100. In other words, before performing the wire stripping operation, the length of the stripping head 300 exposed outside the limiting member 410 is first determined. If the length of the stripping head 300 does not meet the requirements, the locking member 420 is adjusted to be in the unlocked state, and then the limiting member 410 is slid relative to the substrate 100 to adjust the position of the limiting member 410 covering the stripping head 300 so that the exposed length of the stripping head 300 meets the requirements. Then, after the position of the limiting member 410 is adjusted, the locking member 420 is operated to switch it to the locked state, and the position of the limiting member 410 remains unchanged, so that the limiting member 410 will not change its position during subsequent wire stripping operations, allowing the stripping head 300 to cut the insulation layer better.

[0041] Optionally, the limiting member 410 is configured as an arc-shaped plate. The limiting member 410 can be made of plastic and is fitted onto the outer circumferential surface of the base 100. After installation, the cross-sectional profile of the limiting member 410 is approximately an arc, resulting in a large contact area between the limiting member 410 and the base 100, ensuring a firm bond and stable position. The limiting member 410 can reciprocate relative to the base 100 along its axial direction. The limiting member 410 has a limiting end 411 protruding from the base 100. The end face of the limiting end 411 abuts against the insulated wire, thereby controlling the position of the insulated wire relative to the stripping head 300. Because the limiting member 410 is an arc-shaped plate, when the insulated wire abuts against the limiting member 410, the insulated wire spans across the limiting member 410. There are two contact points between the insulated wire and the limiting member 410, and the stripping head 300 is located between the two contact points. In this way, the force on the insulated wire is more balanced. When the stripping head 300 cuts the insulation layer, the insulated wire is less likely to deform, the cutting position is more accurate, and the cutting effect is better. That is, the limiting end 411 of the limiting member 410 has two limiting parts on its end face. When the insulated wire is positioned, it abuts against both limiting parts simultaneously.

[0042] Furthermore, a scale line 110 can be provided on the substrate 100. When the limiting member 410 slides relative to the substrate 100, the scale line 110 reflects the actual position of the limiting member 410 relative to the substrate 100, thereby facilitating the control of the position of the limiting member 410 relative to the peeling head 300, and consequently facilitating the control of the protruding length of the peeling head 300. In other words, after the peeling head 300 is installed with the driver 200, the distance L1 between the tip of the peeling head 300 and the zero mark position of the scale line 110 is constant, that is, the position of the peeling head 300 relative to the substrate 100 will not change. The length L2 of the limiting member 410 itself is also constant, and the length of the peeling head 300 exposed on the limiting member 410 is L3. When adjusting the length of the peeling head 300, the distance between the end of the limiting member 410 away from the tip of the peeling head 300 and the zero mark position of the scale line 110 (that is, the actual reading reflected by the scale line 110) is L4, L3 = L1 - L2 - L4. In this way, it is easy to intuitively obtain the reading of the peeling head 300, and the accuracy is high, and the operation is convenient and reliable.

[0043] Optionally, the inner and outer edges of the end face of the limiting end 411 of the limiting member 410 are rounded to prevent scratching of the uncut insulation layer. Alternatively, a scratch-resistant layer can be provided on the limiting end 411 of the limiting member 410, which can be a hard plastic layer.

[0044] Optionally, the locking element 420 is configured as a clamp, which is fitted over the limiting element 410. When the position of the limiting element 410 needs to be adjusted, the clamp is in a relaxed state, and the limiting element 410 is not pressed against the base 100, allowing the position of the limiting element 410 to be adjustable. After the position of the limiting element 410 is adjusted, the clamp is locked, pressing the limiting element 410 against the base 100, and the position of the limiting element 410 remains unchanged. In other words, the clamp has an adjustable diameter; when the diameter increases, the clamp can be in a relaxed state, and when the diameter decreases, the clamp can be in a locked state.

[0045] In this embodiment, optionally, the positioning mechanism 500 includes a movable latch, which is connected to the base 100 or the limiting mechanism 400. The movable latch is used to abut against the insulated wire 001 to limit the insulated wire 001 from moving away from the stripping head 300. For example, in this embodiment, the movable latch is connected to the limiting member 410 and can adjust the distance between it and the limiting member 410, thereby controlling the position of the limiting member 410 relative to the stripping head 300, and thus better controlling the position of the insulated wire.

[0046] Optionally, the movable latch includes a locking screw 510 and an integrated sliding body 520 and a blocking body 530. Both the sliding body 520 and the blocking body 530 are metal parts, and the sliding body 520 is provided with a strip-shaped guide groove 521. The sliding body 520 fits against the limiting member 410, and the guide groove 521 extends along the axial direction of the base 100. The locking screw 510 passes through the guide groove 521 and is screwed to the base 100. The locking screw 510 can lock the sliding body 520 onto the limiting member 410. That is, after the locking screw 510 is locked, the sliding body 520 is pressed against the limiting member 410, and the limiting member 410 is locked to the base 100, thereby achieving the locking of the sliding body 520 and the base 100. After loosening the locking screw 510, the position of the sliding body 520 relative to the base 100 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the position of the blocking body 530 relative to the stripping head 300. Optionally, the blocking body 530 is a metal spring sheet that can press the insulated wire against the stripping head 300, thereby ensuring that the stripping head 300 can make better contact with the insulation layer and prevent slippage during the stripping process, thus improving safety.

[0047] The electric wire stripping device for insulated wires provided in this embodiment has a high degree of automation during the stripping operation, saving time and effort and achieving high efficiency. Furthermore, it can reasonably control the depth of the stripping head 300 into the insulation layer according to the object being processed, avoiding damage to the core wire by the stripping head 300, thus ensuring high safety.

[0048] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention. Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
