[0024] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 A cable automatic spiral storage and pay-out device includes a cable storage device, a movable pay-out device and a conveying device. The main body of the entire device is a frame. The front side of the frame is provided with an introduction guide wheel, and the rear side of the frame is provided with a lead-out guide wheel group. The introduction guide wheel and the lead-out guide wheel are used to facilitate the cable to enter the device when storing the cable and to flexibly pay out the cable when paying out the cable.

[0025] The wire storage device includes a traction meter device arranged on the top of the front side of the frame. The traction meter device can record the specific number of meters of the cable stored in the device, which is convenient for labeling during storage. When in use, the corresponding cable can be selected according to actual needs, which is convenient for use; a cylinder is arranged on the upper part of the front side of the frame and a rotating mechanism is arranged on one side of the traction meter device. The cylinder is positioned below the traction meter device. After passing through the traction meter device, the cable enters the cylinder below. The rotating mechanism can drive the cylinder to rotate, and the entering cable rotates with the cylinder.

[0026] The conveying device includes a conveying belt arranged at the bottom of the frame, the conveying belt is used to store the cables falling from the cylinder; and a power transmission device arranged at the bottom of the conveying belt, the power device is used to drive the rotation of the conveying belt.

[0027] A movable pay-off device is mounted on an independent frame comprising a top frame, a plurality of support frames disposed at the bottom of the top frame, and a horizontal extension disposed at the bottom of the support frames. A tension traction meter is housed within the top frame, which can also record the number of meters of cable paid out and control the cable's output tension. A limit device is disposed at the bottom of the top frame, and a back-twist rotary mechanism is disposed at the bottom of the top frame. This mechanism eliminates the back-twist force applied to the cable during pay-off, allowing for flexible cable release. The horizontal extension at the bottom of the frame is connected to a sloped conveyor device near the front of the frame, with the surface of the sloped conveyor device having an inclined surface. When the frame is in its initial moving position, the sloped conveyor device is located below the roller. The bottom of the frame is connected to linear guide rails disposed on both sides of the conveyor belt.

[0028] It also includes a moving motor, which drives the frame and the limiting device, the back-twist rotating mechanism, the tension traction meter device and the inclined conveying device on the frame to move along the linear guide rail.

[0029] The entire device is synchronously controlled by a PLC electronic control system, which controls the wire feeding speed of the wire storage device and the wire discharging speed and movement of the movable wire pay-off device. The PLC electronic control system also controls the rotation of the conveying device.

[0030] Before the device starts working, the mobile motor drives the inclined conveying device, the limit device, the reverse twisting rotation mechanism and the tension traction meter device to move to the initial position along the linear guide rail. At this time, the inclined conveying device is located under the drum, and the cable enters the cable storage device through the introduction guide wheel, passes through the traction meter device, and falls on the surface of the conveyor belt along the cylindrical spiral; when storing the cable, the power device drives the conveyor belt to rotate and move according to the set pitch. At the same time, the mobile motor drives the entire moving part to retreat according to the set pitch until the maximum cable storage position, and the cable is led out through the lead-out guide wheel group; the entire device is controlled by the PLC electronic control system, so that the entire device works in coordination. The cable is spirally coiled on the surface of the conveyor belt and stacked at an angle, storing, moving and releasing the cable at the same time.

[0031] The above description is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent replacement or change made by any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention based on the technical solution and novel concept of the present invention should be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
