Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of cable straightening technology, and in particular to a method and apparatus for straightening cables that are easy to cut. Background Technology
[0002] To save space when laying cables, they are often wound around rollers. However, prolonged winding can cause the cables to bend and deform. The condition of the cables varies depending on the application. Generally, to save materials, construction workers will straighten the cables before use. However, for cables with larger diameters, it is difficult to straighten them manually and they are not easy to cut when the required length is needed.
[0003] Currently, during the cabling process, cables must be straightened to facilitate cable routing through conduits or other construction work. In traditional techniques, cable straightening is usually done manually, which is inefficient, time-consuming, labor-intensive, and yields unsatisfactory results. During the straightening process, the cable surface lacks protection and is easily damaged. The cable is also prone to contamination, affecting its subsequent use. Therefore, cleaning and straightening treatment of the cable is necessary. Summary of the Invention

[0038] Furthermore, activating the straightening component 104 to move the cable includes the straightening component 104 pulling the rotating component 101 to rotate, and the squeezing and limiting component 102 limiting the rotating component 101.
[0039] Furthermore, the cable cleaning component 203 cleans the cable by squeezing the cable through the squeezing guide component 202, and the cable passes through the squeezing guide component 202 and enters the interior of the cleaning component 203.
[0040] In summary, this invention provides a cable straightening method that facilitates cutting, making it easier for staff to master the operation process, improving work efficiency, and preventing operational errors that could lead to incomplete cleaning during the cable straightening process and affect subsequent use.
[0041] Example 2
[0042] Reference Figures 2-8 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a cable straightening device that is easy to cut, which includes a straightening unit 100, a cleaning unit 200, and an adjustment unit 300. By activating the straightening component 104, the rotating component 101 is pulled to rotate, releasing the cable. The straightening component 104 straightens the cable and pushes the cable forward by increasing friction. The squeezing and limiting component 102 increases friction to prevent the rotating component 101 from reversing and from accelerating rotation under inertia, so that the cable can be kept in a straight state. The guide component 103 allows the cable to be soaked in warm water and coated with a layer of lubricating oil to protect the cable sheath and pushes the limiting and moving component 201 to move. The squeezing and guiding component 202 is pulled to squeeze and adjust the cleaning component 203 to open a suitable diameter. After the squeezing and guiding component 202 moves out of the squeezing and adjusting cleaning component 203, it makes close contact with the cable and cleans the cable. The adjustment component 302 adjusts the height of the operating platform. After the cable is pulled to the required length, the cutting component 304 is rotated to cut the cable.
[0043] Specifically, the straightening unit 100 includes a rotating assembly 101, a compression limiting assembly 102 disposed on one side of the rotating assembly 101, a guide assembly 103 disposed on one side of the rotating assembly 101, and a straightening assembly 104 disposed on one side of the guide assembly 103.
[0044] The cleaning unit 200 includes a limiting movement component 201, a squeezing guide component 202 fixedly connected to one side of the limiting movement component 201, and an adjustment cleaning component 203 disposed on one side of the squeezing guide component 202.
[0045] The adjustment unit 300 includes a support component 301, an adjustment component 302 disposed on one side of the support component 301, and a shearing component 303 disposed on one side of the adjustment component 302.
[0046] Furthermore, the support component 301 supports a base plate 301a, four sets of L-shaped fixing columns 301b fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 301a, and a vertical connecting plate 301c fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 301a.
[0047] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly 302 is fixedly connected to one side of the vertical connecting plate 301c, including a drive motor 302a, a turntable 302b, a rotating handle 302c, a lifting column 302d, a lifting base 302e, a lifting groove 302f, a fixed support block 302g, a fixed support block 302g, and a support spring 302h.
[0048] Preferably, the drive motor 302a is started to drive the turntable 302b to rotate, causing the rotating handle 302c to drive the lifting column 302d to move to the left within the matching lifting groove 302f, and push the lifting base 302e to move upward, raising the height of the operating platform. Continuing to rotate, the lifting column 302d is pushed to the right within the matching lifting groove 302f, and the lifting base 302e is pulled downward, lowering the height of the operating platform. This causes the support spring 302h to deform, sharing some of the support force on the platform and keeping the operating platform stable.
[0049] Furthermore, the shearing assembly 303 includes a movable frame 303a, a bidirectional lead screw 303b rotatably connected to one side of the movable frame 303a, a rotating handle 303c fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw 303b, two sets of movable plates 303d symmetrically arranged on both sides of the bidirectional lead screw 303b, a tool base 303e fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate 303d, a tool 303f fixedly connected to one side of the tool base 303e, two sets of tool springs 303g fixedly connected to one side of the tool base 303e, and a tool protection block 303h fixedly connected to one end of the tool spring 303g.
[0050] Preferably, after the cable is compressed to the required length, the rotating handle 303c is grasped and rotated, causing the two sets of moving plates 303d to move towards the center within the threaded bidirectional lead screw 303b. The cutter guard block 303h first contacts the cable, and the rotation continues to push the cutter guard block 303h to move to both sides, compressing the cutter spring 303g to retract. The cutter 303f then contacts the cable and cuts it. After the cutting is completed, the rotating handle 303c is rotated in the opposite direction until the two sets of moving plates 303d return to their initial positions.
[0051] Furthermore, the bottom of the support spring 302h is fixedly connected to the top of the support base plate 301a, and the two sets of movable plates 303d are threadedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw 303b.
[0052] Furthermore, the rotating assembly 101 includes a base plate 101a, a moving groove 101b disposed on the top of the base plate 101a, a spring 101c fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the moving groove 101b, two sets of fixing plates 101d disposed on the top of the base plate 101a, a fixing shaft 101e fixedly connected to one side of the fixing plate 101d, and a cable roller 101f disposed in the middle of the fixing shaft 101e;
[0053] The compression limiting assembly 102 includes a fixed block 102a, a connecting column 102b fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed block 102a, a compression spring 102c fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed block 102a, a rotating plate 102d fixedly connected to the bottom of the compression spring 102c, a compression block 102e fixedly connected to one side of the rotating plate 102d, a compression column 102f fixedly connected to the top of the rotating plate 102d, a rotating shaft 102g rotatably connected to one side of the rotating plate 102d, and a rotating compression block 102h fixedly connected to one side of the cable roller 101f.
[0054] The guide assembly 103 includes a support column 103a, a water tank 103b fixedly connected to the top of the support column 103a, two sets of wire holes 103c symmetrically arranged on both sides of the water tank 103b, a rotating shaft 103d disposed inside the water tank 103b, and a driven wheel 103e disposed in the middle of the rotating shaft 103d.
[0055] The straightening assembly 104 includes an L-shaped fixing plate 104a, a cylinder 104b disposed on the top of the L-shaped fixing plate 104a, a connecting frame 104c fixedly connected to the bottom of the cylinder 104b, a first motor 104d disposed on one side of the connecting frame 104c, a straightening roller 104e disposed on one side of the first motor 104d, a support base 104f disposed at the bottom of the straightening roller 104e, a drive shaft 104g rotatably connected to one side of the support base 104f, a rotating wheel 104h disposed on one side of the drive shaft 104g, and a second motor 104i fixedly connected to one end of the drive shaft 104g.
[0056] Preferably, by starting the second motor 104i to rotate forward and starting the first motor 104d to rotate in reverse, friction is increased in the cable, pushing it to move. The distance between the straightening roller 104e and the rotating roller 104h is adjusted by the cylinder 104b to maintain a tight fit with the cable. The straightening roller 104e rotates in reverse under the drive of the first motor 104d to straighten the cable. As the cable moves, it pulls the cable roller 101f to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating pressing block 102h to rotate, thus engaging with the pressing block 102e. The contact pushes the compression block 102e upward to rotate around the rotating shaft 102g, compressing the compression spring 102c and increasing the friction on the cable roller 101f. This prevents excessive rotation due to reverse rotation and inertia, keeping the cable taut. As the compression block 102h rotates, the pushing force on the compression block 102e gradually decreases. Under the deformation of the compression spring 102c, the pushing force is converted into downward pressure, causing the compression block 102e to rotate around the rotating shaft 102g back to its initial position. This cycle repeats, keeping the cable taut.
[0057] Furthermore, the limiting movement assembly 201 includes a gear 201a disposed on one side of the drive shaft 104g, a moving limiting plate 201b disposed at the bottom of the gear 201a, a rack plate 201c disposed at the top of the moving limiting plate 201b, two sets of limiting rods 201d fixedly connected to one side of the moving limiting plate 201b, a limiting plate 201e disposed on one side of the limiting rods 201d, and a limiting groove 201f disposed on one side of the limiting plate 201e;
[0058] The extrusion guide assembly 202 includes an L-shaped pull rod 202a fixedly connected to one side of the movable limiting plate 201b, a sliding rod 202b fixedly connected to one end of the L-shaped pull rod 202a, a sliding groove 202c disposed at the bottom of the sliding rod 202b, a T-shaped insertion groove 202d disposed at the top of the sliding rod 202b, a T-shaped insertion block 202e inserted into the T-shaped insertion groove 202d, and an extrusion cylinder 202f fixedly connected to the top of the T-shaped insertion block 202e.
[0059] The adjustment and cleaning assembly 203 includes two sets of fixed columns 203a, a fixed sleeve 203b fixedly connected to one side of the fixed column 203a, a telescopic spring 203c fixedly connected to one side of the fixed column 203a, a pressing moving rod 203d fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic spring 203c, a moving limiting hole 203e provided on one side of the pressing moving rod 203d, a first arc-shaped friction plate 203f fixedly connected to one end of the pressing moving rod 203d, an arc-shaped pressing groove 203g provided on one side of the first arc-shaped friction plate 203f, a second arc-shaped friction plate 203h connected to a spring inside the arc-shaped pressing groove 203g, a third arc-shaped friction plate 203i provided on one side of the second arc-shaped friction plate 203h, a telescopic rod 203j fixedly connected to one side of the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i, and a pressing limiting rod 203k spring-connected to the fixed sleeve 203b.
[0060] Preferably, the second motor 104i rotates forward, driving the gear 201a, which is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 104g, to rotate. This drives the rack plate 201c, which meshes with the gear 201a, to move. The moving limit plate 201b follows the rack plate 201c and slides forward in the limit groove 201f through two sets of limit rods 201d. This pulls the L-shaped pull rod 202a, which is fixedly connected to one side of the moving limit plate 201b, to move forward. This causes the sliding rod 202b to move forward in the sliding groove 202c. The insertion of the T-shaped insertion groove 202d and the T-shaped insertion block 202e makes it easy to replace the extrusion cylinder 202f with cables of different sizes and diameters.
[0061] Preferably, the extrusion block 102e rotates upward around the rotating shaft 102g, extruding the extrusion spring 102c and increasing the friction on the cable roller 101f, keeping the cable in a straight state. When the cable enters the straightening roller 104e, the straightened cable ensures that the cable is straightened more thoroughly and accurately, avoiding bending damage to the cable during the straightening process due to a non-straight state, and facilitating subsequent use.
[0062] When the extrusion cylinder 202f moves towards the straightening roller 104e, it ensures the cable enters the extrusion cylinder 202f in a taut state, preventing the cable from falling out and failing to enter the adjustment and cleaning assembly 203, which would affect subsequent use. The cable and extrusion cylinder 202f are in a compatible state, allowing the cable and the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i to be in close contact. Several sets of flexible friction cleaning blocks are provided on the inner sides of the first arc-shaped friction plate 203f, the second arc-shaped friction plate 203h, and the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i, which can prevent damage to the outer wall of the cable. When using cables with a larger diameter, the extrusion cylinder 202f extrudes and pushes the fixed sleeve 203b, causing the fixed sleeve 203b to move to one side. The arc-shaped surface of the extrusion limiting rod 203k contacts the arc-shaped surface of one side of the moving limiting hole 203e, pushing the extrusion limiting rod 203k out of the moving limiting hole 203e under the deformation of the spring and moving it to a state parallel to the next set of moving limiting holes 203e. Under the push of the spring, the extrusion limiting rod 203k enters the moving limiting hole 203e to form a fixed position, which facilitates the straightening and cleaning of this batch of cables of the same model.
[0063] It should be noted that the rotating shaft 102g is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed plate 101d, the rack plate 201c is adapted to the gear 201a, the rack plate 201c is fixedly connected to the top of the movable limiting plate 201b, the limiting groove 201f is fixedly connected to one side of the two sets of limiting rods 201d, both ends of the extrusion cylinder 202f are set as arcs, one side of the movable limiting hole 203e is set as an arc surface, one side of the movable limiting hole 203e is set as a right angle, one end of the extrusion limiting rod 203k is set as an arc, the water tank 103b contains a mixture of water and lubricating oil, which covers the bottom of the driven wheel 103e, and the cable passes through the two sets of wire holes 103c when pulled. When driven wheel 103e is in motion, the cable is soaked in warm water and lubricated to protect it. By pulling the fixed plate 101d on one side and pressing it with spring 101c, the cable is moved to one side within the moving groove 101b, facilitating the replacement of the cable roller 101f. After replacement, the pulling of the fixed plate 101d is stopped, and the spring 101c, after losing tension, converts the tension into a forward pushing force, causing the fixed plate 101d to return to its initial position. The first arc-shaped friction plate 203f, the second arc-shaped friction plate 203h, and the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i are all arc-shaped on both sides and are adapted to the arc-shaped surfaces at both ends of the extrusion cylinder 202f.
[0064] In use, this invention has four processes. In the first process, the height is adjusted, and the drive motor 302a is started to drive the turntable 302b to rotate. This causes the rotating handle 302c to drive the lifting column 302d to move to the left within the matching lifting groove 302f, and pushes the lifting base 302e to move upward, raising the height of the operating platform. The rotation continues, pushing the lifting column 302d to move to the right within the matching lifting groove 302f, and pulling the lifting base 302e downward, lowering the height of the operating platform. This causes the support spring 302h to deform, sharing some of the support force on the platform and keeping the operating platform stable.
[0065] The second process involves straightening the cable. The second motor 104i is started to rotate forward, while the first motor 104d is started to rotate in reverse. This increases the friction on the cable, pushing it to move. The distance between the straightening roller 104e and the rotating roller 104h is adjusted by the cylinder 104b to keep the cable in close contact. The straightening roller 104e rotates in reverse under the drive of the first motor 104d, straightening the cable.
[0066] The third process involves increasing the friction of the cable roller 101f. When the cable moves, it pulls the cable roller 101f to rotate, causing the rotating pressing block 102h to rotate and come into contact with the pressing block 102e. This pushes the pressing block 102e upward around the rotating shaft 102g, compressing the pressing spring 102c and increasing the friction of the cable roller 101f. This prevents excessive rotation due to reversal and inertia, keeping the cable taut. The rotating pressing block 102h gradually reduces its push on the pressing block 102e. Under the deformation of the pressing spring 102c, the thrust is converted into downward pressure, causing the pressing block 102e to rotate around the rotating shaft 102g back to its initial position. This cycle repeats, keeping the cable taut.
[0067] In the fourth usage process, the extrusion cylinder 202f is pulled to move, the second motor 104i rotates forward, driving the gear 201a, which is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 104g, to rotate. This drives the rack plate 201c, which meshes with the gear 201a, to move. The moving limit plate 201b follows the rack plate 201c and slides forward in the limit groove 201f through two sets of limit rods 201d. The L-shaped pulling rod 202a, which is fixedly connected to one side of the moving limit plate 201b, is pulled forward, causing the sliding rod 202b to move forward in the sliding groove 202c. The insertion of the T-shaped insertion slot 202d and the T-shaped insertion block 202e makes it easy to replace the extrusion cylinder 202f with cables of different sizes and diameters.
[0068] The fifth process involves cleaning the cable. When using the smallest diameter cable, the squeezing cylinder 202f contacts the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i at one end, squeezing the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i and pushing the telescopic rod 203j to move to both sides. When the squeezing cylinder 202f moves out of the adjustment and cleaning assembly 203, the telescopic rod 203j pushes the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i to reset and move until it makes close contact with the cable, thus cleaning the cable.
[0069] When using a cable with a larger diameter, one end of the extrusion cylinder 202f first contacts the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i, squeezing the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i and pushing the telescopic rod 203j to move to both sides. Then, it continues to squeeze the second arc-shaped friction plate 203h, pushing the spring to retract the second arc-shaped friction plate 203h and the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i into the arc-shaped extrusion groove 203g. When the extrusion cylinder 202f moves out of the adjustment and cleaning assembly 203, the telescopic rod 203j pushes the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i and the spring pushes the second arc-shaped friction plate 203h to reset and move until it makes close contact with the cable, thus cleaning the cable.
[0070] When using a cable with a larger diameter, one end of the extrusion cylinder 202f first contacts the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i, squeezing the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i and pushing the telescopic rod 203j to move to both sides. Then, it continues to squeeze the second arc-shaped friction plate 203h, pushing the spring to retract the second arc-shaped friction plate 203h and the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i into the arc-shaped extrusion groove 203g. The first arc-shaped friction plate 203f pushes the extrusion moving rod 203d, causing the extrusion limiting rod 203k to be squeezed outward until it is parallel to another set of moving limiting holes 203e. Then, it springs into the moving limiting hole 203e to fix the extrusion limiting rod 203k. When the extrusion cylinder 202f moves out of the adjustment and cleaning assembly 203, the telescopic rod 203j pushes the third arc-shaped friction plate 203i and the spring pushes the second arc-shaped friction plate 203h to reset and move until it makes close contact with the cable to clean the cable.
[0071] When it is necessary to straighten and clean small diameter cables, pull out the squeezing limit rod 203k, so that the squeezing moving rod 203d is reset under the push of the deformation of the telescopic spring 203c, forming a tight contact cleaning of the small diameter cable.
[0072] In the sixth usage process, the cable is cut. After the cable is pressed to the required length, the rotating handle 303c is grasped and rotated, causing the two sets of moving plates 303d to move towards the center within the threaded bidirectional lead screw 303b. The cutter guard block 303h first contacts the cable. Continuing to rotate pushes the cutter guard block 303h to move to both sides, compressing the cutter spring 303g to retract. The cutter 303f contacts the cable and cuts it. After cutting, the rotating handle 303c is rotated in the opposite direction until the two sets of moving plates 303d return to their initial positions.
[0073] In summary, this invention, by setting up a straightening unit and activating the straightening component to straighten the cable, increases friction to propel the cable forward. The squeezing and limiting component increases friction on the rotating component, preventing it from reversing and accelerating due to inertia, thus ensuring the cable remains straight. The straightening component moves the limiting component and pulls the squeezing guide component, guiding the cable's movement and opening the adjustment and cleaning component to ensure close contact with the cable and clean any adhering substances, facilitating subsequent use. The height of the operating platform can be adjusted by rotating the adjustment component for easier operation. When the cable is pulled to the required length, it is cut by the cutting component for convenient use.
