Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of terminal block machines, and more particularly to an infeed device and a terminal block machine thereof. Background Technology

[0002] A terminal crimping machine is a type of machine used in wire processing. It typically has crimping and electroplating stations spaced apart. The crimping station breaks horizontally entering wires, which are then conveyed to the next station for further processing via a conveyor belt. The electroplating station plates a layer of metal onto the ends of vertically entering wires, which are then conveyed to the next station via another conveyor belt. Wires at both stations are fed into the terminal crimping machine.

[0003] Currently, existing wire feeding devices include a mounting frame and a wire feeding assembly. The wire feeding assembly includes a cylinder and a wire feeding seat. The cylinder is fixedly connected to the mounting frame and drives the wire feeding seat to move. In actual operation, bundled wires are wound onto a tension unwinding frame, and one end of the wire is threaded through the wire feeding seat. The wire feeding seat, driven by the cylinder, works in conjunction with the crimping or electroplating station to achieve wire feeding.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the wire feeding device can only feed wires in one direction. The crimping station and the electroplating station need to use two wire feeding devices with different feeding directions, resulting in higher production costs for the terminal block machine. Therefore, improvements are needed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to reduce the production cost of terminal block machines, this application provides an infeed device.

[0006] The incoming line device provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: A cable inlet device includes a mounting frame, a cable inlet assembly, a rotating component, and a drive assembly; the cable inlet assembly is fixedly connected to the rotating component; both ends of the rotating component are rotatably connected to both sides of the mounting frame; the drive assembly is used to drive the rotating component to rotate, thereby causing the cable inlet assembly to rotate and changing the cable outlet direction of the cable inlet assembly; the drive assembly is also used to drive the cable inlet assembly to slide along a first direction.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, in actual operation, the infeed device is in its initial state, with the mounting bracket and infeed assembly arranged horizontally, and the infeed assembly corresponding to the crimping station. When it is necessary to feed the wire to the crimping station, the wire is movably passed through the infeed assembly, and the infeed assembly feeds the wire horizontally to the crimping station.

[0008] When it is necessary to feed the wire to the electroplating station, the drive component drives the wire feeding component to slide along the first direction, so that the wire feeding component corresponds to the electroplating station. The drive component also drives the rotating part to rotate, thereby causing the wire feeding component to rotate and changing the wire output direction of the wire feeding component. The wire feeding component feeds the wire vertically to the electroplating station.

[0009] In summary, this wire feeding device can simultaneously achieve horizontal and vertical wire feeding, and is applicable to both crimping and electroplating stations. Therefore, only one wire feeding device is needed, thereby reducing the production cost of the terminal crimping machine. Furthermore, the electroplated wire can be slid and reset to the crimping station via the drive assembly, and then crimped and broken at the crimping station. It is then transported to the next station via a conveyor belt, requiring only one conveyor belt, further reducing the production cost of the terminal crimping machine.

[0010] Preferably, the cable inlet assembly includes a first driving member and a cable inlet seat. The first driving member is fixedly connected to the rotating member, and the power output shaft of the first driving member is fixedly connected to the cable inlet seat to drive the cable inlet seat to move in a second direction.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, by setting a first driving member and a wire inlet, the wire is movably passed through the wire inlet, and the first driving member drives the wire inlet to move in the second direction so that the wire can be fed into the crimping station or electroplating station.

[0012] Preferably, there are multiple infeed assemblies, and the multiple infeed assemblies are spaced apart along the axial direction of the rotating member.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, and by setting up multiple wire inlet components, different wire inlet components can be adapted to wires of different diameters. Under the drive of the drive component, each wire inlet component moves along the second direction. Different wire inlet components cooperate with the crimping station or electroplating station, thereby facilitating the processing of wires of different diameters.

[0014] Preferably, the inlet assembly further includes an elastic tube, the inlet seat has a wire-passing hole, and the elastic tube is located at the inlet end of the inlet seat and communicates with the wire-passing hole.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic tube guides the wire, making it easier for the wire to pass through the wire hole; and when the wire inlet seat rotates, the elastic tube limits the wire, minimizing the risk of the wire rubbing against the wire inlet end of the wire inlet seat.

[0016] Preferably, the end of the elastic tube furthest from the inlet socket is higher than the end closest to the inlet socket.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, by setting the end of the elastic tube furthest from the inlet seat to be higher than the end closest to the inlet seat, the wire passes through the elastic tube, causing the elastic tube to deform, thereby increasing the friction between the wire and the elastic tube, and thus improving the stability of the wire feeding device.

[0018] Preferably, the infeed device further includes a fixed frame and a connecting assembly; a movable slot is provided on one side of the fixed frame, the movable slot includes a translational section and a rotating section that are interconnected, the translational section is arranged along the length direction of the mounting frame, and the rotating section is located at one end of the translational section and is arranged towards the side away from the mounting frame; the driving assembly includes a second driving member, the second driving member is located on the fixed frame, and the second driving member drives the mounting frame to slide and connect to the fixed frame along its own length direction; one end of the connecting assembly is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating member, and the other end is movably limited to the translational section or the rotating section.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the second driving component drives the mounting bracket to slide along its own length and connect to the fixed bracket, thereby driving the rotating component to slide, so that one end of the connecting component slides along the translation section. When one end of the connecting component slides to the end of the translation section near the rotating section, the second driving component continues to drive the mounting bracket to slide, forcing one end of the connecting component to slide along the rotating section, causing the connecting component to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating component to rotate, thereby changing the direction of the wire inlet and allowing the wire inlet socket to work in conjunction with the electroplating station. Furthermore, when one end of the connecting component is located at the end of the translation section away from the rotating section, the wire inlet socket works in conjunction with the crimping station, resulting in a larger distance between the crimping station and the electroplating station along the length of the mounting bracket, minimizing interference when switching between the two stations.

[0020] Preferably, the second driving component includes a servo motor and a lead screw. The servo motor is mounted on the fixed frame, the output shaft of the servo motor is fixedly connected to the lead screw, and the lead screw is threadedly connected to the mounting frame.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, and by setting a servo motor and a lead screw, the servo motor drives the lead screw to rotate in both directions, and the lead screw is threadedly connected to the mounting bracket, thereby driving the mounting bracket to move back and forth along its own length. Due to the high precision of the lead screw, the movement of the mounting bracket is guaranteed to be stable and accurate.

[0022] Preferably, the wire feeding device further includes a wire pressing assembly, which includes a wire pressing seat, a wire pressing block, and a spring; the wire feeding seat has a wire through hole along its own length direction, the wire pressing seat is slidably connected and partially embedded in the wire feeding seat, and the wire pressing seat has a wire pressing groove communicating with the wire through hole along its own sliding direction; the wire pressing block is disposed in the wire feeding seat and embedded in the wire pressing groove, and is located inside the wire feeding seat; the spring is sleeved on the wire pressing seat to drive the wire pressing seat to separate from the wire feeding seat.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up a wire pressing assembly, when the wire is moved through the wire hole, the wire is also passed through the wire pressing groove. The spring drives the wire pressing seat to separate from the wire inlet seat, and the wire is pressed between the wire pressing seat, the end wall of the wire pressing groove away from the spring, and the wire pressing block, thereby improving the stability of the wire and cooperating with the crimping station or electroplating station.

[0024] Preferably, the cable infeed device further includes a tensioning assembly, which is disposed on one side of the cable infeed end of the cable infeed assembly. The tensioning assembly includes a mounting base and a plurality of tensioning wheels, which are rotatably connected to the mounting base.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up a tensioning assembly, the tension of the wire is adjusted by multiple tensioning wheels, thereby improving the stability of the wire entry.

[0026] Secondly, this application provides a terminal block machine.

[0027] The terminal block machine provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: A terminal block machine includes a frame and a wire feeding device as described above, the wire feeding device being disposed on the frame.

[0028] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. This wire feeding device can simultaneously handle both horizontal and vertical wire feeding, making it suitable for both crimping and electroplating stations. Therefore, only one wire feeding device is needed, reducing the production cost of the terminal crimping machine. Furthermore, the electroplated wire can be slid and reset to the crimping station via the drive assembly, where it is crimped and then transported to the next station via a conveyor belt. In this case, only one conveyor belt is required, further reducing the production cost of the terminal crimping machine. 2. By setting up a flexible tube, the flexible tube guides the wire, making it easier for the wire to pass through the wire hole; and when the wire inlet seat rotates, the flexible tube limits the wire, minimizing the risk of the wire rubbing against the wire inlet end of the wire inlet seat. 3. The second driving component drives the mounting bracket to slide along its own length and connect to the fixed bracket, thereby causing the rotating component to slide. This allows one end of the connecting component to slide along the translational section. When one end of the connecting component slides to the end of the translational section near the rotating section, the second driving component continues to drive the mounting bracket to slide, forcing one end of the connecting component to slide along the rotating section, causing the connecting component to rotate. This rotates the rotating component, thereby changing the direction of the wire inlet and allowing the wire inlet socket to work in conjunction with the electroplating station. Furthermore, when one end of the connecting component is located at the end of the translational section away from the rotating section, the wire inlet socket works in conjunction with the crimping station, resulting in a larger distance between the crimping station and the electroplating station along the length of the mounting bracket, minimizing interference when switching between the two stations.

[0031] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 This application will be described in further detail.

[0032] This application discloses an inlet device.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The wire feeding device includes a mounting frame 1, a wire feeding assembly 2, a rotating component 3, and a drive assembly 4. The mounting frame 1 is horizontally arranged, and the wire feeding assembly 2 is used to feed the wire 10 to the crimping station or electroplating station. The rotating component 3 is a rotating shaft, and its length direction is arranged along a first direction, which is the width direction of the mounting frame 1. The two ends of the rotating component 3 are rotatably connected to the two sides of the mounting frame 1, respectively.

[0034] The drive assembly 4 is used to drive the rotating part 3 to rotate, thereby driving the wire feeding assembly 2 to rotate, which changes the wire output direction of the wire feeding assembly 2. The drive assembly 4 also drives the wire feeding assembly 2 to slide along the first direction, so as to realize the switching of the wire feeding assembly 2 between the crimping station and the electroplating station.

[0035] In actual operation, the infeed device is in its initial state, with the mounting bracket 1 and the infeed assembly 2 horizontally positioned, and the infeed assembly 2 corresponding to the crimping station. When the wire 10 needs to be fed into the crimping station, the wire 10 is movably passed through the infeed assembly 2, and the infeed assembly 2 feeds the wire 10 horizontally into the crimping station. When the wire 10 needs to be fed into the electroplating station, the drive assembly 4 drives the infeed assembly 2 to slide along the first direction, so that the infeed assembly 2 corresponds to the electroplating station, and the drive assembly 4 drives the rotating part 3 to rotate, thereby rotating the infeed assembly 2, changing the outfeed direction of the infeed assembly 2, and the infeed assembly 2 feeds the wire 10 vertically into the electroplating station.

[0036] In summary, this wire feeding device can simultaneously achieve horizontal and vertical wire feeding, and is applicable to both crimping and electroplating stations. Therefore, only one wire feeding device is needed, thereby reducing the production cost of the terminal crimping machine. Furthermore, the electroplated wire 10 can be slid and reset to the crimping station via the drive assembly 4, and then crimped and broken at the crimping station. It is then transported to the next station via a conveyor belt, requiring only one conveyor belt, further reducing the production cost of the terminal crimping machine.

[0037] In some embodiments, the wire feeding assembly 2 includes a first driving member 21 and a wire feeding seat 22. The first driving member 21 is a cylinder and is arranged along the length direction of the mounting bracket 1. The first driving member 21 is fixedly connected to the rotating member 3 via the mounting member 5, and the power output shaft of the first driving member 21 is fixedly connected to the wire feeding seat 22 to drive the wire feeding seat 22 to move along a second direction, which is the length direction of the first driving member 21. The wire feeding seat 22 has a wire through hole 221 along the second direction for the power supply wire 10 to pass through. The wire feeding seat 22 moves under the drive of the first driving member 21 to facilitate the wire 10 to enter the crimping station or electroplating station.

[0038] In some embodiments, there are multiple wire feeding assemblies 2, which are spaced apart along the axial direction of the rotating member 3. The diameter of the wire 10 passing through the wire seat 22 of each wire feeding assembly 2 is different, and under the drive of the drive assembly 4, each wire feeding assembly 2 moves along the second direction, so that each wire feeding assembly 2 cooperates with the crimping station or electroplating station, thereby facilitating the processing of wires 10 with different diameters.

[0039] In some embodiments, the inlet assembly 2 further includes an elastic tube 23, which is a spring tube 83. The elastic tube 23 is fixedly connected to the inlet end of the inlet socket 22 and communicates with the through hole 221. The elastic tube 23 guides the wire 10 so that the wire 10 can pass through the through hole 221 of the inlet socket 22. Furthermore, when the outlet direction of the inlet socket 22 changes (i.e., when the inlet socket 22 is in a vertical direction), the elastic tube 23 limits the wire 10 to avoid the wire 10 from rubbing against the inlet end of the inlet socket 22, thereby reducing the occurrence of wear and breakage of the wire 10.

[0040] In some embodiments, the elastic tube 23 is inclined, with the end of the elastic tube 23 away from the inlet seat 22 being higher than the end near the inlet seat 22. When the wire 10 passes through the elastic tube 23, the wire 10 compresses the elastic tube 23 and causes it to deform, thereby increasing the friction between the wire 10 and the elastic tube 23 and improving the stability of the wire feeding device.

[0041] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, the infeed device further includes a fixing frame 6 and a connecting assembly 7. The mounting frame 1 is slidably connected to the upper side of the fixing frame 6 along its own length direction, and the driving assembly 4 further includes a second driving member 41, which is disposed on the fixing frame 6 to drive the mounting frame 1 to slide.

[0042] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 A movable slot 61 is provided on one side of the fixed frame 6. The movable slot 61 includes a translation section 611 and a rotating section 612. The translation section 611 is arranged along the length direction of the mounting frame 1, and the rotating section 612 is arranged perpendicular to the translation section 611. The lower end of the rotating section 612 is connected to the end of the translation section 611 away from the cable inlet 22. One end of the connecting component 7 is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating component 3 near the movable slot 61, and the other end is movably limited to the translation section 611 or the rotating section 612.

[0043] The second driving component 41 drives the mounting bracket 1 to slide towards the end away from the crimping station. One end of the connecting component 7 slides in the translation section 611. When one end of the connecting component 7 slides to the end of the translation section 611 near the rotating section 612, it forces one end of the connecting component 7 to slide along the rotating section 612, causing the connecting component 7 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating component 3 to rotate, driving the wire inlet component 2 to rotate, and thus realizing the change of the wire inlet direction of the wire 10.

[0044] It should be noted that when one end of the connecting component 7 is confined to the translation section 611, the second driving component 41 drives the mounting bracket 1 to move closer to the crimping station, thereby bringing the infeed component 2 closer to the crimping station. This shortens the stroke required by the first driving component 21, thus reducing the size of the infeed component 2. Simultaneously, increasing the distance between the crimping station and the electroplating station along the length of the mounting bracket 1 (which is the length of the translation section 611) allows for a larger gap between the crimping station and the electroplating station, minimizing interference during switching between the two stations and ensuring the stability of the switching station.

[0045] In some embodiments, the connecting assembly 7 includes a connecting plate 71, a fixing member 72, and a connecting member 73. One end of the connecting plate 71 is sleeved on the end of the rotating member 3 and is pressed against by the fixing member 72 to fix one end of the connecting plate 71 to the rotating member 3. The connecting member 73 is a bolt, which is threaded to the end of the connecting plate 71 away from the fixing member 72, and its end movement is limited to the movable groove 61 to facilitate the connection between the two ends of the connecting plate 71, thereby facilitating the installation and disassembly of the connecting assembly 7.

[0046] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, the second driving component 41 includes a servo motor 411 and a lead screw 412. The servo motor 411 is fixedly connected to the end of the mounting frame 6 away from the cable inlet 22. The power output shaft of the servo motor 411 is fixedly connected to the lead screw 412. The lead screw 412 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 6 and threadedly connected to the mounting bracket 1. The servo motor 411 drives the lead screw 412 to rotate in both directions, thereby realizing the back-and-forth movement of the mounting bracket 1. Due to the high precision of the lead screw 412, the movement of the mounting bracket 1 is ensured to be stable and accurate.

[0047] In some embodiments, the mounting bracket 6 is slidably connected to the frame of the terminal crimping machine via a slide rail along a first direction, and the drive assembly 4 includes a third drive member 42, which is a cylinder. The third drive member 42 is fixedly connected to the frame, and the power output shaft of the third drive member 42 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting bracket 6 to drive the mounting bracket 6 to move back and forth along the first direction, so that each wire inlet assembly 2 switches between the crimping station and the electroplating station.

[0048] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5In some embodiments, the wire feeding device further includes a wire pressing assembly 8, which includes a wire pressing base 81, a wire pressing block 82, and a spring 83. The wire pressing base 81 is vertically arranged and has a wire pressing groove 811 along the vertical direction, which communicates with the wire through hole 221. The wire feeding base 22 has a sliding groove 222 along the vertical direction, and the wire pressing base 81 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 222.

[0049] The wire pressing block 82 is fixedly connected to the wire inlet seat 22 at the upper end of the slide groove 222, and the wire pressing block 82 is partially embedded in the wire pressing groove 811. The upper end of the wire pressing seat 81 protrudes to form an abutment part 812. The spring 83 is sleeved on the wire pressing seat 81, with one end abutting against the abutment part 812 and the other end abutting against the upper side of the wire inlet seat 22, so as to drive the wire pressing seat 81 to move upward, thereby separating the wire pressing groove 811 from the wire inlet seat 22. The wire 10 is pressed tightly against the wire pressing seat 81 between the lower end wall of the wire pressing groove 811 and the wire pressing block 82, so as to avoid the wire 10 moving during processing, thereby improving the stability of the wire 10 and cooperating with the crimping station or electroplating station.

[0050] In actual operation, when the wire 10 moves, it needs to be pressed by a terminal crimping machine with the wire crimping seat 81. The lower end of the crimping groove 811 is away from the crimping block 82, and the wire crimping seat 81 and the crimping block 82 release the pressure on the wire 10, so as to facilitate the movement and feeding of the wire 10. The wire feeding assembly 2 also includes a pressure roller 84, which is rotatably connected to the upper end of the wire crimping seat 81 and protrudes from the wire crimping seat 81 to facilitate the crimping of the wire crimping seat 81.

[0051] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the cable inlet device further includes a tensioning assembly 9, the number of which corresponds to the number of cable inlet assemblies 2. The tensioning assembly 9 is located on one side of the cable inlet end of the cable inlet seat 22. Specifically, the tensioning assembly 9 includes a mounting base 91 and a plurality of tensioning rollers 92. The mounting base 91 is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 1 via a mounting plate (not marked in the figure). The plurality of tensioning rollers 92 are rotatably connected to one side of the mounting base 91. The tension of the wire 10 is adjusted by the plurality of tensioning rollers 92, thereby improving the stability of the cable 10 entering the cable.

[0052] The mounting base 91 includes a fixed part 911, a movable part 912, at least one elastic part 913, and an adjusting part 914. The movable part 912 is slidably connected to the fixed part 911 in a vertical direction. Two elastic parts 913, each a spring 83, are positioned between the fixed part 911 and the movable part 912 to drive the movable part 912 upwards. The adjusting part 914 is a bolt threadedly connected to the upper end of the fixed part 911 and abuts against the upper end of the movable part 912 to adjust the position between the fixed part 911 and the movable part 912. It should be noted that both the fixed part 911 and the movable part 912 are equipped with tensioning wheels 92 to adjust the tension of the wire 10.

[0053] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: In actual operation, the wire feeding device is in its initial state, the mounting bracket 1 and the wire feeding assembly 2 are horizontally arranged, and the wire feeding assembly 2 corresponds to the crimping station. When it is necessary to feed the wire 10 to the crimping station, the wire 10 is movably passed through the wire feeding seat 22, and the first driving member 21 drives the wire feeding seat 22 to move and feed the wire 10 horizontally to the crimping station.

[0054] When the wire 10 needs to be fed into the electroplating station, the third drive member 42 drives the fixing frame 6 to slide along the first direction, so that the wire feeding assembly 2 corresponds to the electroplating station. The second drive member 41 drives the mounting frame 1 to slide away from the crimping station. One end of the connecting assembly 7 slides movably in the translation section 611. After the one end of the connecting assembly 7 slides movably to the end of the translation section 611 near the rotating section 612, it forces the one end of the connecting assembly 7 to slide along the rotating section 612, so that the connecting assembly 7 rotates, thereby driving the rotating member 3 to rotate, driving the wire feeding assembly 2 to rotate, thereby changing the wire feeding direction of the wire 10. The wire feeding assembly 2 feeds the wire 10 vertically into the electroplating station.

[0055] In summary, this wire feeding device can simultaneously achieve horizontal and vertical wire feeding, and is applicable to both crimping and electroplating stations. Therefore, only one wire feeding device is needed, thereby reducing the production cost of the terminal crimping machine. Furthermore, the electroplated wire 10 can be slid and reset to the crimping station via the drive assembly 4, and then crimped and broken at the crimping station. It is then transported to the next station via a conveyor belt, requiring only one conveyor belt, further reducing the production cost of the terminal crimping machine.

[0056] This application also discloses a terminal block machine.

[0057] The terminal crimping machine includes a frame, a crimping station, an electroplating station, and a wire feeding device as described in the above embodiment. Both the crimping and electroplating stations are located on the frame and are spaced apart along a first direction. The outlet end of the wire feeder 22 is at the same height as the crimping station, while the electroplating station is lower. A third driving member 42 is fixedly connected to the frame to drive the fixed frame 6 to slide along the first direction and connect to the frame, thereby switching the wire feeder 22 between the crimping and electroplating stations. Then, the rotation of the rotating member 3 changes the wire feeding direction of the wire feeding assembly 2 to suit both the crimping and electroplating stations.

[0058] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
