Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a cable and wire reel reinforcement device and method. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, large-section or long-length cables are all stored on the reel. However, the take-up rack of cable production equipment only has a power lever on one side, which is used to rotate the reel to achieve the purpose of winding the cable into the reel. However, the power levers of different models of cable equipment are not located on the same side, which causes the winding of the equipment to be subjected to forces in two directions during actual production.

[0003] The finished cable delivery reels use iron and wood reels, with angle iron as the supporting strips on both sides. However, the angle irons on both sides of the standard iron and wood reel are installed in the same direction (the flat surface of the angle iron is installed in a clockwise direction). Therefore, for cable take-up devices with only one side and different orientations, the lever will act on the vertical surface of the angle iron supporting strip of the iron and wood reel, causing deformation of the iron and wood reel supporting angle iron, a decrease in strength, and the reel to fall apart. Therefore, a cable iron and wood reel reinforcement device is needed to improve the strength of the iron and wood reel supporting angle iron. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this invention is to provide a cable reel reinforcement device and method that can avoid excessively large angles of folding and retraction, thereby improving the integrity of the protective wire layer and the yield of the conductor terminals. At the same time, it can achieve automated operation, reduce labor costs, and is suitable for integrated automated assembly operations of machinery, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] A cable reel reinforcement device for installation on a cable reel spoke angle iron includes a fixed bracket, a locking hole on the fixed bracket, a fixing nut fixed to the locking hole and located on the outside of the fixed bracket, and a reinforcing tube fixed to the inside of the fixed bracket. There is an installation gap between the reinforcing tube and the fixed bracket. The length of the installation gap is greater than the thickness of the cable reel spoke angle iron. An adjusting stud is screwed into the fixing nut. The screw-in length of the adjusting stud is greater than the length of the installation gap.

[0007] Preferably, the fixing bracket is a thickened angle iron, and the reinforcing tube is welded to the side of the fixing bracket without holes.

[0008] Preferably, there is one or more locking holes, and each locking hole is provided with a corresponding fixing nut.

[0009] Preferably, the locking holes are evenly distributed on the fixed bracket and located at the middle height of the fixed bracket.

[0010] Preferably, the fixing nut is aligned with the locking hole, and the fixing nut and the fixing bracket are connected by welding.

[0011] Preferably, the reinforcing tube is a square tube, and the length of the reinforcing tube is the same as the length of the fixed bracket.

[0012] Preferably, the height of the reinforcing tube after installation on the fixed bracket is greater than the height of the locking hole.

[0013] Another technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for reinforcing cable reels made of iron and wood, comprising the following steps:

[0014] Loosen the adjusting stud so that the bottom of the adjusting stud retracts into the locking hole of the fixed bracket;

[0015] Install the cable reel reinforcement device onto the reel spoke angle iron, ensuring that the installation gap of the cable reel reinforcement device is fully embedded into the vertical surface of the reel spoke angle iron until the inner surface of the reinforcement tube is completely flush with the inner plane of the reel spoke angle iron.

[0016] Tighten the adjusting stud until the bottom of the stud is completely locked onto the spoke angle iron of the cable reel. Move the carrying rod on the take-up frame so that the carrying rod presses against the outside of the device's fixed bracket, so that the cable reel reinforcement device transfers the pressure of the carrying rod from the vertical surface of the spoke angle iron to the flat surface.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0018] With its simple structure and low cost, the steel reel strengthens the spokes on one side through a simple structure, preventing the cable take-up frame from deforming the spokes during loading and ensuring that the steel reel loaded with cables is delivered to the customer intact.

[0023] Example

[0024] See Figure 1 As shown, a cable reel reinforcement device is used to install onto the angle iron of the cable reel spokes. It includes a fixed bracket 1, a locking hole 2 opened on the fixed bracket 1, a fixing nut 3 fixed on the locking hole 2 and located on the outside of the fixed bracket 1, and a reinforcing tube 4 fixed on the inside of the fixed bracket 1. There is an installation gap 5 between the reinforcing tube 4 and the fixed bracket 1. The gap length of the installation gap 5 is greater than the thickness of the angle iron of the cable reel spokes. An adjusting stud 6 is screwed into the fixing nut 3. The screw-in length of the adjusting stud 6 is greater than the gap length of the installation gap 5.

[0025] The cable reel reinforcement device uses components such as a fixed bracket 1, locking holes 2, fixing nuts 3, and reinforcing tube 4 to effectively fix the cable reel and enhance its structural strength. By opening locking holes 2 on the fixed bracket 1 and using fixing nuts 3 for locking, the connection between the reinforcement device and the angle iron of the cable reel can be ensured to be firm and reliable.

[0026] There is an installation gap 5 between the reinforcing tube 4 and the fixed bracket 1, and the length of this gap is greater than the thickness of the ironwood disc spoke angle iron. This design facilitates the installation of the ironwood disc spoke angle iron. The screw length of the adjusting stud 6 is greater than the gap length of the installation gap 5. This allows for adjustment according to actual needs to ensure that it is suitable for each ironwood disc spoke angle iron and to ensure the tightness of the connection between the reinforcing device and the ironwood disc, providing better support and reinforcement.

[0027] The fixed bracket 1 is a thickened angle iron. The reinforcing tube 4 is welded to the side of the fixed bracket 1 without holes. There is one or more locking holes 2, and a fixing nut 3 is provided on each locking hole 2. The locking holes 2 are evenly distributed on the fixed bracket 1 and are located at the middle height of the fixed bracket 1. The fixing nut 3 is aligned with the locking hole 2, and the fixing nut 3 is welded to the fixed bracket 1.

[0028] Using thickened angle iron as the fixing bracket 1 improves its load-bearing capacity and stability, thus better supporting and reinforcing the cable reel. Furthermore, the angle iron material is corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant, extending the service life of the fixing bracket 1. Welding the reinforced tube 4 to the un-drilled side of the fixing bracket 1 effectively enhances the connection strength between the reinforced tube 4 and the fixing bracket 1, preventing safety issues caused by loose connections. Simultaneously, the welded connection reduces the possibility of loosening and vibration, thereby improving the stability of the cable reel.

[0029] The locking holes 2 are located at the middle height of the fixed bracket 1 and are evenly distributed, which allows for a uniform force distribution on the fixing nuts 3 corresponding to the spokes of the cable tray, thus achieving better support and reinforcement. Furthermore, providing more than one locking hole 2 can improve the reliability of the connection and increase the stability between the cable tray and the reinforcing device. The alignment of the fixing nuts 3 with the locking holes 2 makes it easier to screw the fixing nuts 3 into the locking holes 2 during installation, resulting in a tighter connection. In addition, the fixing nuts 3 are welded to the fixed bracket 1, which enhances the connection strength and better secures the cable tray.

[0030] The reinforcing tube 4 is a square tube, and its length is the same as that of the fixed bracket 1. The height of the reinforcing tube 4 after installation on the fixed bracket 1 is greater than the height of the locking hole 2.

[0031] The design of the square tube as the reinforcing tube 4 provides a larger reinforcement and support area. Compared to other tube shapes, the square tube offers a better contact area when connecting to the fixed bracket 1, thereby increasing the strength and stability of the connection. The reinforcing tube 4 and the fixed bracket 1 are of the same length, achieving overall balance and consistency. This consistent length design ensures a perfect fit between the reinforcing tube 4 and the fixed bracket 1, avoiding instability or structural loosening caused by length mismatch.

[0032] A method for reinforcing a cable reel made of iron and wood includes the following steps:

[0033] Loosen the adjusting stud 6 so that the bottom of the adjusting stud 6 retracts into the locking hole 2 of the fixed bracket 1;

[0034] Install the cable reel reinforcement device onto the reel spoke angle iron, wherein the installation gap 5 of the cable reel reinforcement device must be completely embedded into the vertical surface of the reel spoke angle iron until the inner surface of the reinforcement tube 4 is completely flush with the inner plane of the reel spoke angle iron.

[0035] Tighten the adjusting stud 6 until the bottom of the stud is completely locked onto the iron and wood reel spoke angle iron. Move the carrying rod on the take-up frame so that the carrying rod presses against the outside of the device fixing bracket 1, so that the cable iron and wood reel reinforcing device transfers the pressure of the carrying rod from the vertical surface of the spoke angle iron to the flat surface.

[0036] By loosening the adjusting stud 6 and installing the cable reel reinforcement device onto the reel spoke angle iron, a tight connection between the reinforcing tube 4 and the fixed bracket 1 can be ensured. The installation gap 5 is fully embedded in the vertical surface of the reel spoke angle iron, which ensures a better contact area between the reinforcing tube 4 and the fixed bracket 1, thereby enhancing the strength of the connection.

[0037] The locking and adjusting stud 6 ensures a tight connection and applies pressure to the spoke angle iron of the steel-wood disc, thereby increasing the stability of the connection. Furthermore, pressing the carrying rod against the outside of the device fixing bracket 1 transfers the pressure between the carrying rod and the cable steel-wood disc reinforcement device from the vertical surface of the spoke angle iron to the flat surface, thus increasing the stability of the structure.

[0038] This reinforcement method can be achieved by simply moving the carrying lever on the cable reel. It is very simple and easy to do. Just move the carrying lever gently to complete the reinforcement of the cable reel without any complicated tools or operating procedures.

[0039] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0040] The wire gripping mechanism uses pneumatic grippers to hold the conductor core, ensuring stable clamping and preventing core detachment or displacement during operation. The deflection mechanism, through a combination of deflection seats and deflection components, deflects the pneumatic grippers at an angle, allowing the protective wire layer to unfold at a smaller angle, reducing the risk of breakage and effectively improving the yield of conductor terminals. The wire-cranking mechanism, driven by a rotating shaft assembly and a wire-cranking motor, rotates the deflection shaft assembly, allowing the gripped conductor core to rotate at an inclined angle, thus simulating manual wire-cranking to unfold the protective wire layer at a small angle. In summary, this wire-cranking device design optimizes key steps in the traditional conductor terminal installation process, improves production efficiency and product quality, and features automation and integration, making it of significant application value to the conductor manufacturing industry.

[0041] The above embodiments of the present invention are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. The implementation of the present invention is not limited thereto. All other modifications, substitutions or alterations made to the above structure of the present invention based on the above content of the present invention, in accordance with ordinary technical knowledge and common practice in the field, without departing from the basic technical idea of ​​the present invention, shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
