Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of drag chain cable detection, and in particular relates to a tensile property detection device for high-flexibility drag chain cables. Background Art

[0002] High-flexibility drag chain cables are high-flexibility special cables that can move back and forth following a drag chain without being easily worn. They are usually applied in fields such as industrial electronic systems, automatic production lines, warehousing equipment, robots, fire protection systems, cranes, numerical control machine tools, and metallurgical industries. The tensile property detection of drag chain cables is an important link to ensure their quality and reliability.

[0003] Currently, when detecting the tensile properties of drag chain cables, there are generally two methods. One is to apply a tensile force to the drag chain cable and record the tensile force in real time until the drag chain cable is broken. The other is to apply a preset maximum tensile force to the drag chain cable and then detect whether the cable can be used normally to determine whether the tensile properties of the drag chain cable meet the usage requirements, such as a tensile property detection device for high-flexibility drag chain cables disclosed in Patent Publication No. CN215640565U.

[0004] Since in actual use, multiple cables are installed inside a drag chain and an appropriate amount of filler is also filled to ensure the stability of each cable and prevent it from being scattered. However, this will cause the heat generated by the cables to be not easily dissipated in time, that is, the drag chain cables are at a relatively high temperature during operation. After the temperature rises, the cable material will soften and the tensile property will weaken. If the tensile properties of the drag chain cables are only detected at room temperature, the detection results will not be close enough to the actual situation. Secondly, if the conductor of the cable is stretched and cannot be used normally, it can be quickly measured using a special testing device (such as an ammeter). However, for the insulating outer skin of the drag chain cable, if the insulating outer skin is stretched and broken or damaged, there is no special testing device to quickly measure it, which increases the difficulty of detecting the tensile properties of the outer skin of the drag chain cable to a certain extent.

In this temperature range, after the temperature received by the thermistor strip 73 rises, its own resistance decreases.

[0033] At the lower end of the side wall of the support plate 1, there is fixedly installed a fixing plate 8. And the fixing plate 8 is provided with a gas supply mechanism 9 and a triggering mechanism 10. The triggering mechanism 10 is communicated with the gas supply mechanism 9.

The output end of the air pump 91 is fixedly connected with a delivery pipe 93. A branch delivery pipe 94 is fixedly communicated with the pipe wall of the delivery pipe 93.

[0034] The triggering mechanism 10 includes a fixed block 101 fixedly installed on one side of the end face of the fixed plate 8. Two circular grooves 102 are provided on the end face of the fixed block 101. One end of the distribution pipe 94 far from the gas transmission pipe 93 is sealed.

The two first normally closed solenoid valves 105 and the two second normally closed solenoid valves 18 are both electrically connected to the controller 14. After the electromagnetic switch 16 is powered on, the electromagnetic block inside it will generate magnetic suction force, thereby attracting the moving contact of itself. After power-off, under the action of the elastic piece inside it, the moving contact will disconnect.

[0035] A temperature control mechanism 11 communicated with the air supply mechanism 9 is installed on the side wall of the support plate 1. The temperature control mechanism 11 includes a cross plate 111 fixedly installed at the lower end of the side wall of the support plate 1.

After the electromagnetic part is powered on, under the action of the same-sex repulsion, it will push the permanent magnet to drive the telescopic rod part to eject. This is a mature existing technology, so it will not be elaborated here.

[0037] The side wall of the mounting plate 2 is provided with a pressurizing and stretching mechanism 12, which includes a vertical hole 121 opened on the side wall of the mounting plate 2, and a vertical block 122 is slidably provided inside the vertical hole 121, and a pressurizing roller 123 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the vertical block 122, and a main electric hydraulic cylinder 124 electrically connected to the controller 14 is fixedly plugged into the upper hole wall of the vertical hole 121, and the output end of the main electric hydraulic cylinder 124 is fixedly connected to the vertical block 122, and the side wall of the mounting plate 2 is provided with horizontal holes at positions on both sides of the vertical hole 121. 125, and the interiors of the two transverse holes 125 are slidably connected with transverse blocks 126, the side walls of the two transverse blocks 126 are rotatably connected with directional rollers 128, and the interiors of the two transverse holes 125 are rotatably provided with adjusting screws 127, and the rod walls of the two adjusting screws 127 are threadedly connected with the side walls of the transverse blocks 126 on the same side. By twisting the adjusting screws 127, the transverse blocks 126 can be driven to move horizontally, so that the distance between the directional rollers 128 and the pressure roller 123 can be adjusted, which is suitable for drag chain cables with different diameters.

[0038] A driving assembly 13 is installed on the side wall of the support plate 1, and the driving assembly 13 is used to drive the mounting plate 2 to move. A controller 14 is fixedly installed on the lower end of the side wall of the support plate 1. The driving assembly 13 includes two through holes 131 opened on the side wall of the support plate 1, and reciprocating screw rod assemblies 132 are installed inside the two through holes 131. The two reciprocating screw rod assemblies 132 are connected together through a belt assembly 133. A driving motor 134 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the support plate 1, and the driving motor 134 is connected to the reciprocating screw rod assembly 132 on the same side. Next, two sets of drive blocks 135 are fixedly installed on the side wall of the mounting plate 2, and the two sets of drive blocks 135 are both connected to the reciprocating screw assembly 132 on the same side. The reciprocating screw assembly 132 includes a reciprocating screw, a screw nut, a bearing and other components. The drive block 135 is installed on the screw nut. Under the rotation of the reciprocating screw, the screw nut can move back and forth laterally along the reciprocating screw. The belt assembly 133 includes belts, pulleys and other components, which can effectively make the two reciprocating screws rotate synchronously in the same direction. This is an existing mature technology, so it will not be elaborated here.

[0039] The operating principle of the present invention is described as follows: insert the two ends of the towline cable sample (length of 1 meter) to be tested into the two clamping holes 42 respectively, and control the two auxiliary electric hydraulic cylinders 43 to work through the controller 14, the auxiliary electric hydraulic cylinder 43 can drive the wire pressing plate 44 to move downward, so that the towline cable can be clamped and fixed. When installing the towline cable, the towline cable needs to be placed above the two directional rollers 128 and below the pressure roller 123, and one end of the towline cable needs to be in contact with the heat-conducting contact plate 62 and the other end with the insulating heat-conducting plate 72. Then, press the start button on the controller 14 to perform a tensile test on the towline cable.

[0040] After the start button of the controller 14 is pressed, the controller 14 will control the electric heating block 63 to work regularly for 2 minutes to heat one end of the drag chain cable, and the heating temperature is 60°C ± 1°C. The heat generated by the electric heating block 63 will be conducted to one end of the insulating heat-conducting plate 72 through the drag chain cable. After the electric heating block 63 has worked for 1 minute and 40 seconds, the controller 14 will connect the loop of the thermistor strip 73 and the air pump 91, and at the same time control the normally open solenoid valve 95 and the first normally closed solenoid valve 105 inside the left pipe 103 to work. At this time, the air pump 91 will send air into the circular groove 102 communicated with the left pipe 103 through the air delivery pipe 93, the sub-air delivery pipe 94 and the left pipe 103. Since the heat is conducted to the thermistor strip 73, the temperature at the thermistor strip 73 will rise, thereby reducing the resistance of the thermistor strip 73. At this time, the resistance of the connection loop between the air pump 91 and the thermistor strip 73 decreases. Therefore, the output power of the air pump 91 becomes higher, and the air sent by the air pump 91 into the circular groove 102 communicated with the left pipe 103 will push the piston 106 and the insulating rod 108 on the same side to drive the conductive block 109 on the same side to move upward. After the electric heating block 63 finishes working regularly, the controller 14 controls the air pump 91 to stop working, and controls the normally open solenoid valve 95 and the first normally closed solenoid valve 105 inside the left pipe 103 to cut off the power supply;

[0041] Subsequently, the controller 14 controls the main electric hydraulic cylinder 124 to work regularly (this regular time can be set according to the maximum tensile force designed for different drag chain cables. For example, if the set limit tensile force value of this drag chain cable is 100N, the regular working time of the main electric hydraulic cylinder 124 is 5 seconds). The main electric hydraulic cylinder 124 can drive the pressure roller 123 to move downward through the vertical moving block 122, so as to press down the drag chain cable. Under the action of the pressure, the drag chain cable is stretched and straightened, so that the limit tensile force can be applied to the drag chain cable. Subsequently, the controller 14 controls the drive motor 134 to work. Under the combined driving action of the reciprocating screw rod assembly 132 and the belt assembly 133, the drive motor 134 can drive the mounting plate 2 to move towards one end of the insulating heat-conducting plate 72 through the drive block 135 (when detecting initially, the mounting plate 2 is located at one end of the heat-conducting contact plate 62). Since the mounting plate 2 moves horizontally, and the main electric hydraulic cylinder 124 applies the limit tensile force to the drag chain cable with the pressure roller 123, the tensile properties of each position of the drag chain cable under the bending condition can be detected. And because the drag chain cable has been heated by the electric heating block 63, the tensile properties of the drag chain cable under the working heating condition can be simulated, and the detection result is more in line with the actual situation;

[0042] When the controller 14 starts the main electric hydraulic cylinder 124, the controller 14 will control the air pump 91 to start working again, and at the same time control the electric heater 113 to start working again. The electric heater 113 can heat the air inside the cross plate 111, and the heating temperature is 70°C ± 5°C. The air pump 91 can spray the air heated by the electric heater 113 through the air injection holes 112 to the drag chain cable through the air delivery pipe 93. In this way, it can ensure that the drag chain cable remains at a high temperature during the tensile test, avoiding the influence of heat loss of the drag chain cable on the accuracy of the tensile performance test. Secondly, after the controller 14 starts the electric heater 113, it will synchronously control the two electromagnetic push rods 20 to work intermittently. The two electromagnetic push rods 20 are powered on once every 2 seconds, and the single power-on time is 2 seconds. When the electromagnetic push rod 20 is powered on, it will move the push plate 22 through the push block 21. At this time, the push plate 22 will move away from directly below the air injection hole 112. Therefore, the air conveyed by the air pump 91 will quickly spray out from the air injection hole 112. When the sprayed air flow impacts the drag chain cable, it can not only heat and keep warm the drag chain cable, but also make the drag chain cable vibrate by using the impact force of the air flow. When the electromagnetic push rod 20 is powered off, the push plate 22 moves back to below the air injection hole 112. At this time, due to the blocking of the air injection hole 112 by the push plate 22, the air conveyed by the air pump 91 cannot be sprayed out through the air injection hole 112 in time. Therefore, the air pressure inside the cross plate 111 rises rapidly, and the air will be fully heated by the electric heater 113 until the next time the push plate 22 moves away from directly below the air injection hole 112, and these high-temperature and high-pressure air will spray out through the air injection hole 112 again;

[0043] After the drive motor 134 works for 3 minutes, the mounting plate 2 moves from one end of the heat-conducting contact plate 62 to one end of the insulating heat-conducting plate 72. At this time, the controller 14 controls the drive motor 134 to stop working. Subsequently, the controller 14 controls the electric heater 113 to stop working and controls the two electromagnetic push rods 20 to be continuously powered on. At this time, the air delivered by the air pump 91 will continuously and stably spray out through the air holes 112. Since the electric heater 113 has stopped working, under the action of the unheated air flow delivered by the air pump 91, the drag chain cable will be quickly cooled to room temperature. After the controller 14 controls the electric heater 113 to stop working for 2 minutes, the controller 14 controls the air pump 91 and the electromagnetic push rods 20 to stop working. Subsequently, the air pump 91 controls the electric heating block 63 to work regularly for 2 minutes again, and the heating temperature is the same as the initial heating temperature. And after the controller 14 starts the electric heating block 63 to work for 1 minute and 40 seconds, the controller 14 will reconnect the connection circuit between the thermistor strip 73 and the air pump 91. At the same time, the controller 14 controls the normally open solenoid valve 95 and the first normally closed solenoid valve 105 inside the right pipe 104 to work. At this time, the air pump 91 will deliver air into the circular groove 102 communicated with the right pipe 104 through the air delivery pipe 93, the sub-air delivery pipe 94 and the right pipe 104. At this time, the air inside the circular groove 102 communicated with the right pipe 104 will push the piston 106 and the insulating rod 108 on the same side to drive the conductive block 109 on the same side to move upward. After the electric heating block 63 works regularly and ends, the controller 14 controls the air pump 91 to stop working and controls the normally open solenoid valve 95 and the first normally closed solenoid valve 105 inside the right pipe 104 to be powered off. If the tensile property of the drag chain cable is good, under the ultimate tensile force, the conductor and the insulating outer skin of the drag chain cable do not show the phenomena of fracture and excessive stretching, then before and after applying the tensile force to the drag chain cable, the thermal conductivity of the drag chain cable will not change excessively. At this time, the difference in the air volume delivered into the two circular grooves 102 is small, resulting in a small difference in the height of the two insulating rods 108 driving the conductive blocks 109 to move upward, so that the two conductive blocks 109 will not be separated. On the contrary, if the conductor and the insulating outer skin of the drag chain cable show the phenomena of fracture and excessive stretching, when the heat is transferred to the fracture of the conductor or the insulating outer skin, the heat will be blocked, resulting in less heat being conducted to the thermistor strip 73 in the same time. And excessive stretching will cause the heat conduction distance to become longer and the effective area of heat conduction to shrink, which will also cause less heat to be conducted to the thermistor strip 73 in the same time. Therefore, due to the temperature difference of the thermistor strip 73 before and after, the output power of the air pump 91 differs greatly, resulting in a large difference in the air volume delivered into the two circular grooves 102, and further resulting in a large difference in the height of the two insulating rods 108 moving upward, so that the two conductive blocks 109 are separated. After the controller 14 controls the first normally closed solenoid valve 105 inside the right pipe 104 to be powered off, the controller 14 will connect the connection circuit between the two conductive blocks 109 and the electromagnetic switch 16. If the two conductive blocks 109 are not separated,Then the connection circuit between the electromagnetic switch 16 and the conductive block 109 is turned on. At this time, the moving contact of the electromagnetic switch 16 will be magnetically attracted and closed. After the controller 14 receives the closing electrical signal of the electromagnetic switch 16, it will not control its own alarm module (the alarm module can adopt a buzzer, an audible and visual alarm, etc.) to work. On the contrary, if the two conductive blocks 109 are separated, the connection circuit between the electromagnetic switch 16 and the conductive block 109 is disconnected. At this time, the moving contact of the electromagnetic switch 16 will not be magnetically attracted and closed, resulting in the controller 14 being unable to receive the electrical signal of the electromagnetic switch 16. After 5 seconds, the controller 14 will control its own alarm module to start alarm work. After the staff receives the alarm signal of the controller 14, they can know that the tensile performance of the drag chain cable is unqualified. 6 seconds after the controller 14 connects the connection circuit between the conductive block 109 and the electromagnetic switch 16, the controller 14 will control the second normally closed solenoid valves 18 inside the two exhaust holes 17 to work regularly for 20 seconds to discharge the excess air inside the two circular grooves 102, avoiding affecting the next detection. At the same time, the controller 14 will control the main electric push rod to perform a timed return stroke work to move the pressure roller 123 back to its reset position, and control the drive motor 134 to continue working for 3 minutes to move the mounting plate 2 back to one side of the heat conduction contact plate 62 for the next detection. Subsequently, the staff can control the two auxiliary electric hydraulic cylinders 43 to perform a return stroke work through the controller 14, and then remove the drag chain cable.
