[0061] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0062] like Figures 1 to 10An automated wire termination device includes a base plate 1, which is unique in that: several composite motion module supports 2 are mounted on the base plate 1, and a mounting plate 3 is mounted on the top of each composite motion module support 2. Below the mounting plate 3, a Y-axis linear motion module 4 is mounted, and a module mounting plate 5 is movably connected to the Y-axis linear motion module 4. An X-axis linear motion module 6 is mounted on the module mounting plate 5. Simultaneously, below the mounting plate 3, a linear guide slider 54 mounting plate 7 is also provided, which is connected to the X-axis linear motion module 6 via a heavy-duty linear guide slider 548. Considering the need for winding collection or unloading, a winding module 9 is provided on the base plate 1. Furthermore, to facilitate wire threading guidance, a threading module 10 is provided on the X-axis linear motion module 6. Specifically, the threading module 10 includes a hollow rotating platform 25, a platform mounting plate 26 connected to the hollow rotating platform 25, a main mounting plate 27 disposed below the platform mounting plate 26, and a wire cutting module 28, a wire feeding module 29, and a wire tensioning module 30 disposed on the lower side of the main mounting plate 27. To ensure continuous and stable wire tension and prevent unnecessary curling, the wire tensioning module 30 includes a first wire clamping module 43 and a second wire clamping module 44.

[0063] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the winding module 9 includes a winding base plate 12 connected to the equipment base plate 1. A winding shaft mounting plate 13 is provided on the winding base plate 12, and a drive shaft is provided on the winding shaft mounting plate 13. One end of the drive shaft is connected to a wire spool 11, and the other end of the drive shaft is provided with a servo motor 15. A wire guide mechanism 14 is provided at the upper end of the winding shaft mounting plate 13. In this way, the winding speed can be controlled and used in conjunction with the wire feeding speed. Specifically, the wire spool 11 includes a clamping tray 17, and a winding spindle 18 is provided at the center of the clamping tray 17. At the same time, the wire guide mechanism 14 includes a wire guide groove assembly 19, a cover plate assembly 20 is provided at the upper end of the wire guide groove assembly 19, and a cover plate connecting block 21 is provided at the upper end of the cover plate assembly 20. To achieve effective winding fine-tuning, the present invention provides a cover plate lifting cylinder 22 on the cover plate connecting block 21, and the cover plate lifting cylinder 22 is connected to a wire groove shifting cylinder 24 through a cylinder connecting plate 23. Furthermore, for better speed control, the present invention provides a reducer 16 on the servo motor 15.

[0064] Furthermore, to achieve automated wire cutting, especially to meet the needs of end-of-line wires, the wire cutting module 28 includes a wire cutting mounting plate 31 connected to the main mounting plate 27. A pneumatic shear lifting cylinder 33 is installed on one side of the mounting plate 31, and a pneumatic shear 34 is mounted on the cylinder. This allows adjustment of the current blade position of the pneumatic shear 34 according to the position of the wire, ensuring smooth cutting. Moreover, considering installation stability, a main reinforcing block 32 is provided on the other side of the mounting plate 31.

[0065] In practical implementation, to achieve continuous and stable wire feeding and meet the tension adjustment requirements between wires, the wire feeding module 29 includes a main connecting plate 35 connected to the main mounting plate 27, on which several auxiliary reinforcing blocks 36 are provided. Simultaneously, a wire clamping mounting plate 37 is provided at the upper end of the main connecting plate 35, and a second wire clamping module 44 and a wire clamping module lifting connecting plate 38 are connected to the wire clamping mounting plate 37. Furthermore, to better guide the wire routing and achieve horizontal wire feeding as much as possible, a wire clamping lifting cylinder 41 is provided on one side of the main connecting plate 35, and the wire clamping lifting cylinder 41 is connected to the main connecting plate 35 through a connector 42. Moreover, a buffer 40 is provided on the main connecting plate 35 through the auxiliary mounting blocks 39. This buffers the movement of the cylinder and prevents unnecessary vibration of the wire.

[0066] Furthermore, the first wire clamping module 43 of this invention includes a first mounting block 45 connected to the wire clamping mounting plate 37. A first wire clamping cylinder 46 is mounted on the first mounting block 45, and a first clamping main claw 47 is mounted at the lower end of the first wire clamping cylinder 46. Simultaneously, a first limiting mounting block 49 is mounted on the first wire clamping cylinder 46, and a first clamping secondary claw 48 cooperating with the first clamping main claw 47 is located at the bottom of the first limiting mounting block 49. Furthermore, a first limiting cylinder 52 is mounted on the first limiting mounting block, and a limiting connecting block 50 is mounted after the limiting rod 51 of the first limiting cylinder 52 passes through the first limiting mounting block 49. This allows for appropriate limiting, enabling the first clamping main claw 47 to better clamp the wire.

[0067] Meanwhile, the second wire clamping module 44 used in this invention includes a slide rail connected to the wire clamping mounting plate 37, and the slide rail is connected to the second wire clamping mounting block 53 via a slider 54. A second wire clamping displacement cylinder 55 is provided on the second wire clamping mounting block 53. This provides a certain horizontal adjustment space, thereby allowing for the adjustment of the distance between the module and the wire tensioning module 30, and the force application distance for different wire end points. Specifically, a second wire clamping displacement cylinder is connected to the second wire clamping mounting block 53, a second wire clamping mounting plate 56 is located below the second wire clamping mounting block 53, and a second wire clamping cylinder 57 is provided on the second wire clamping mounting plate 56. Furthermore, a main clamping jaw 58 and a secondary clamping jaw 59 are provided on the second wire clamping cylinder.

[0068] The working principle of this invention is as follows:

[0069] like Figure 10As shown in Figure 18, after the wire spool is wound and rewound, the X-axis linear motion module 6 and the Y-axis linear motion module 4 move together to move the threading module 10 above the wire clamping and cutting position. The hollow rotating platform 25 adjusts the angle of the threading module 10. The clamping module lifting cylinder 41 drives the first clamping module 43 and the second clamping module 44 to descend to the clamping position, and the clamping cylinder drives the jaws to clamp the wire. After the wire is clamped and fixed, the air shear lifting cylinder 33 drives the air shear 34 to descend to the cutting position, and the air shear cuts the wire.

[0070] The combined motion of the X-axis linear motion module 6 and the Y-axis linear motion module 4 moves the wire-clamping module 10 to the wire-threading position on the wire reel, while the hollow rotating platform 25 adjusts the angle of the wire-threading module 10. The first wire-clamping module 43 passes the wire through the first wire-threading hole on the wire reel and feeds it into the wire groove 19 of the wire guide mechanism 14.

[0071] The second wire clamping module shifting cylinder 55 drives the second wire clamping module 44 to reciprocate multiple times, guiding the wire through the conductor groove 19 and out of the second threading hole of the wire reel. The conductor groove cover plate 20 can form a closed cavity in the conductor groove, preventing the wire from escaping from the conductor groove.

[0072] While the wire is being threaded, the wire tensioning module 30 waits at the second threading hole of the wire reel. Once the wire passes through the second threading hole of the wire reel, the wire pull-in module clamps the wire.

[0073] After the wire pulling module 30 clamps the wire, the wire channel cover lifting cylinder 22 drives the wire channel cover 20 to rise, and the wire channel shifting cylinder 24 drives the wire channel 19 to retract. The wire tensioning module 30 tightens the wire under the combined motion of the X-axis linear motion module 6 and the Y-axis linear motion module 4.

[0074] Once the final line is completed, all modules return to their original positions, and the final line is finished.

[0075] As can be seen from the above description and the accompanying drawings, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0076] 1. It can realize unmanned wire winding and automatic wire termination, which greatly improves efficiency, reduces manpower, and avoids quality risks caused by human error.

[0077] 2. After configuring the wire reel, the wire can be threaded and wound.

[0078] 3. The overall structure is simple and can be matched with wires of various materials and spools of various specifications.

They are only for the purpose of facilitating the description of this invention and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or structure referred to must have a specific orientation, or to operate in a specific orientation.

[0080] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
