[0008] The supporting member extends in a direction parallel to the second direction. The number of the swinging members is set to two. Along the second direction, the two swinging members are arranged at intervals. The supporting member is arranged between the two swinging members, and the two ends of the supporting member are respectively connected to the two swinging members.

[0009] In a possible implementation, when the alignment assembly and the wire drum are in a separated state, the distance between the two abutting members is smaller than the length of the wire drum in the third direction.

[0010] In a possible implementation, the base includes:

[0011] a first substrate, the first clamping assembly being movably connected to the first substrate;

[0012] The second substrate is spaced apart from the first substrate on a side of the first substrate away from the stranding device along the first direction.

[0089] The specific implementation methods of the present application are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0090] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a wire stranding device 200, including a device body 3, a cradle 4, a lifting assembly 2, and an automatic loading and unloading device 100. The wire stranding device 200 is a tube stranding device or a cage stranding device.

[0091] For the convenience of subsequent reading, the present application introduces a first direction Z, a second direction Y, and a third direction X to describe the embodiments of the present application. The first direction Z, the second direction Y, and the third direction X may be three non-parallel linear directions in space; further, the first direction Z, the second direction Y, and the third direction X may be three mutually perpendicular directions in a three-dimensional coordinate system (three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system). In the subsequent embodiments, the first direction Z is the Z-axis direction of the coordinate axis of the three-dimensional coordinate system, the second direction Y is the Y-axis direction of the coordinate axis of the three-dimensional coordinate system, and the third direction X is the X-axis direction of the coordinate axis of the three-dimensional coordinate system.

[0092] The device body 3 is arranged along the third direction X, and a plurality of cavities 301 are provided in the device body 3. Along the third direction X, the plurality of cavities 301 are arranged at intervals, and a cradle 4 is provided in each cavity 301. The shape of the cradle 4 is roughly annular, and the wire drum 5 is placed in the cradle 4.

[0093] The shape of the wire drum 5 is roughly cylindrical, and the wire drum 5 includes a main body 501 and two side parts 502. The main body 501 is cylindrical in shape, and along the direction of the axis of the main body 501, the two side parts 502 are respectively connected to the two ends of the main body 501. The side part 502 is disc-shaped, and the outer contour of the side part 502 exceeds the outer contour of the main body 501. The main body 501 is used for winding wire, and the wire wound on the main body 501 is limited between the two side parts 502. When the wire drum 5 is placed in the cradle 4, the direction of the axis of the wire drum 5 is parallel to the second direction Y.

[0094] In particular, a central hole 504 is provided at the center of the two side portions 502, and the central hole 504 is coaxially arranged with the main body 501. A hook groove 503 is provided around the side of the two side portions 502 away from the main body 501, and the hook groove 503 is in a circular shape and is arranged at intervals around the edge of the side portion 502.

[0095] Along the first direction Z, the lifting component 2 is arranged on the side of the cradle 4 away from the equipment body 3. The lifting component 2 is connected to the automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 for driving the automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 to lift and lower along the first direction Z to place the wire drum 5 into the cradle 4 or take out the wire drum 5 in the cradle 4.

[0096] In this embodiment, along the first direction Z, a gantry structure 1 is provided at intervals above the main body 3 of the equipment, the gantry structure 1 is provided along the third direction X, and a sliding assembly 6 is provided on the gantry structure 1, and the sliding assembly 6 can slide relative to the gantry structure 1 along the third direction X. The lifting assembly 2 is installed at the sliding end of the sliding assembly 6 to slide along the third direction X with the sliding assembly 6, so that the lifting assembly 2 can move to different cradles 4, and then the lifting assembly 2 drives the automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 to move to different cradles 4 for loading and unloading. In addition, the sliding assembly 6 can also drive the automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 to move to the place where the wire drum 5 is stored outside the stranding equipment 200, so as to transport the wire drum 5 taken out of the cradle 4 to the same place for storage, or grab the wire drum 5 from the place where the wire drum 5 is stored and transport it to the cradle 4.

[0097] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment also provides an automated loading and unloading device 100 for loading or unloading the wire reel 5 in the wire stranding device 200 .

[0098] The automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 includes a base 10 , a first clamping assembly 20 , a second clamping assembly 40 , and an alignment assembly 60 .

[0099] The base 10 is connected to the lifting end of the lifting assembly 2 so as to drive the base 10 to lift and lower along the first direction Z through the lifting assembly 2. The first clamping assembly 20 is movably connected to the base 10, and the first clamping assembly 20 can at least move relative to the base 10 along the second direction Y. The first clamping assembly 20 is configured to clamp or release the wire drum 5. The second clamping assembly 40 is movably connected to the base 10, and the second clamping assembly 40 can at least move relative to the base 10 along the first direction Z and the second direction Y, and the second clamping assembly 40 is configured to clamp or release the wire drum 5. Along the first direction Z, the second clamping assembly 40 can move to the side of the first clamping assembly 20 close to the wire drum 5, and is used to clamp the wire drum 5 lifted by the first clamping assembly 20. The alignment assembly 60 includes two swing mechanisms 61, and the two swing mechanisms 61 are arranged at intervals along the third direction X. The swing mechanism 61 is rotatably connected to the base 10 , and the two swing mechanisms 61 are configured to elastically support opposite sides of the wire drum 5 along the third direction X, so as to adjust the position of the wire drum 5 .

[0100] Thus, in the automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 of the present application, the first clamping assembly 20, the second clamping assembly 40, and the alignment assembly 60 are installed on the base 10. When the base 10 moves toward the stranding equipment 200, the alignment assembly 60 contacts the wire drum 5 stored at the stranding equipment 200 and adjusts the position of the wire drum 5 so as to facilitate the clamping of the first clamping assembly 20 and the second clamping assembly 40. Subsequently, the first clamping assembly 20 clamps the wire drum 5, and the first clamping assembly 20 moves with the base 10 toward the side away from the stranding equipment 200 to lift the wire drum 5 to a certain height, ensuring that the subsequent second clamping assembly 40 can smoothly clamp the wire drum 5. Subsequently, the second clamping assembly 40 aligns with the wire drum 5 and clamps the wire drum 5 to prevent the wire drum 5 from shaking during the movement. The base 10 continues to move until the wire drum 5 is completely removed from the stranding equipment 200, thereby realizing the automatic unloading of the wire drum 5. In addition, when loading the wire drum 5, the first clamping assembly 20 and the second clamping assembly 40 directly clamp the wire drum 5 at the same time, and then drive the base 10 to move toward the stranding device 200, so as to automatically put the wire drum 5 into the cradle 4 of the stranding device 200. The loading and unloading of the entire wire drum 5 can be automated without manual intervention, and when unloading the wire drum 5, the first clamping assembly 20 first clamps the wire drum 5 and then lifts it for a distance before the second clamping assembly 40 clamps the wire drum 5, which can avoid the narrow space at the cradle 4 affecting the work of the second clamping assembly 40, so that the automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 of the present application can well take out the heavy wire drum 5 from the relatively narrow cradle 4 safely.

[0101] Please combine again Figures 3 to 6 In one embodiment, the base 10 includes a first substrate 11 and a second substrate 12 .

[0102] The first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12 are both in the shape of a flat plate. The first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12 are arranged in parallel and are both placed along the second direction Y. Along the first direction Z, the second substrate 12 is arranged at intervals on a side of the first substrate 11 away from the stranding device 200. The first clamping assembly 20 is located between the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12, and the first clamping assembly 20 is movably connected to the first substrate 11. The second clamping assembly 40 is movably connected to the second substrate 12.

[0103] In particular, a connection seat 13 is protrudingly provided at the center of the second substrate 12 away from the first substrate 11 , and the connection seat 13 is connected to the lifting end of the lifting assembly 2 .

[0104] In this embodiment, the automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 further includes a first detection component 70. The first detection component 70 is configured to detect whether the first substrate 11 slides relative to the second substrate 12.

[0105] The base 10 further includes a linear bearing 14 and a sliding member 15. There are four linear bearings 14, which are disposed at the corners of the second substrate 12. Along the first direction Z, the four linear bearings 14 are all disposed through the second substrate 12, and the four linear bearings 14 are fixed to the second substrate 12.

[0106] There are four sliding members 15, and the four sliding members 15 are arranged corresponding to the four linear bearings 14. The shape of the sliding member 15 is cylindrical, and the sliding member 15 is arranged along the first direction Z. One end of the sliding member 15 is fixed to the first substrate 11, and the other end of the sliding member 15 is penetrated through the linear bearing 14, and one end of the sliding member 15 penetrated through the linear bearing 14 is slidably connected to the linear bearing 14, thereby realizing the sliding connection between the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12 in the first direction Z.

[0107] In this embodiment, the first detection component 70 adopts a contact position sensor, and the induction sheet 71 of the contact position sensor is arranged at intervals at one end of a sliding member 15 passing through the linear bearing 14. When the lifting component 2 drives the base 10 to descend until the first substrate 11 contacts the cradle 4 or the cable drum 5 and other structures, the first substrate 11 slides upward, thereby driving the sliding member 15 to slide downward, and the end of the sliding member 15 contacts the induction sheet 71 of the first detection component 70, triggering an alarm signal, thereby controlling the lifting component 2 to stop working to avoid damage to the equipment.

[0108] It is understandable that in other embodiments, the first detection component 70 may also use other detection elements such as a laser ranging sensor.

[0109] Please combine again Figures 3 to 5 , and combined with Figure 1 In one embodiment, the automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 further includes a first moving assembly 30 . The first moving assembly 30 includes two first sliding mechanisms 31 , and the two first sliding mechanisms 31 are both disposed on the base 10 .

[0110] Specifically, the two first sliding mechanisms 31 are located between the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 12 and are installed on one side of the first substrate 11 close to the second substrate 12. Along the third direction X, the two first sliding mechanisms 31 are spaced apart to save space required for installing the two first sliding mechanisms 31.

[0111] In this embodiment, the first sliding mechanism 31 is a screw slide, and the first sliding mechanism 31 is disposed along the second direction Y.

[0112] It is understandable that, in other embodiments, the first sliding mechanism 31 may also be other linear mechanisms such as a cylinder slide.

[0113] Further, the first clamping assembly 20 includes a first hook 21 and a second hook 22. The first hook 21 and the second hook 22 are spaced apart along the second direction Y, and the first hook 21 and the second hook 22 can be respectively clamped in the hook grooves 503 formed on the two side portions 502 of the wire drum 5.

[0114] One first sliding mechanism 31 is connected to the first hook 21 for driving the first hook 21 to slide along the second direction Y. Another first sliding mechanism 31 is connected to the second hook 22 for driving the second hook 22 to slide along the second direction Y. When the two first sliding mechanisms 31 drive the first hook 21 and the second hook 22 to approach each other, the first hook 21 and the second hook 22 hook the wire drum 5 and lift it. When the two first sliding mechanisms 31 drive the first hook 21 and the second hook 22 to move away from each other, the first hook 21 and the second hook 22 release the wire drum 5.

[0115] Specifically, the first hook 21 and the second hook 22 are both in an "L" shape and include a first section 211 and a second section 212. The first section 211 is arranged along the first direction Z, and the top of the first section 211 is connected to the sliding end of the first sliding mechanism 31. The first substrate 11 is provided with a through hole 110, and the through hole 110 penetrates the first substrate 11 along the first direction Z. The bottom end of the first section 211 passes through the through hole 110 and is exposed to the first substrate 11, so that when the first hook 21 and the second hook 22 grab the wire drum 5, the first substrate 11 will not contact the wire drum 5. The second section 212 is arranged along the second direction Y, one end of the second section 212 is connected to the bottom end of the first section 211, and the other end of the second section 212 is adapted to the shape of the hook groove 503 to be clamped in the hook groove 503.

[0116] In this way, when the wire drum 5 in the cradle 4 needs to be taken out, the lifting component 2 drives the automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 to descend until the first hook claw 21 and the second hook claw 22 are roughly flush with the top of the hook groove 503, and then the two first sliding mechanisms 31 drive the first hook claw 21 and the second hook claw 22 to be clamped in the hook groove 503. After the lifting component 2 drives the automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 to rise a certain distance, the wire drum 5 is partially extended out of the cradle 4, so that the wire drum 5 can be clamped by the second clamping component 40 later.

[0117] In particular, the first clamping assembly 20 further includes a second detection assembly 23, which is a photoelectric sensor. The transmitting end and the receiving end of the photoelectric sensor are respectively arranged on the adjacent side of the two first sections 211 to detect whether the wire drum 5 is located between the first hook 21 and the second hook 22.

[0118] Please combine again Figures 3 to 6In one embodiment, the automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 further includes a second moving assembly 50. The second moving assembly 50 includes a second sliding mechanism 51 and a lifting mechanism 52. The second sliding mechanism 51 is arranged on the base 10. The second sliding mechanism 51 is connected to the lifting mechanism 52 in a transmission manner to drive the lifting mechanism 52 to slide along the second direction Y. The lifting mechanism 52 is connected to the second clamping assembly 40 in a transmission manner to drive the second clamping assembly 40 to rise and fall along the first direction Z.

[0119] Specifically, the number of the second moving assemblies 50 is set to two, and the second sliding mechanisms 51 of the two second moving assemblies 50 are installed on the side of the second substrate 12 away from the first substrate 11. Along the second direction Y, the two second sliding mechanisms 51 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the connecting seat 13.

[0120] The second sliding mechanism 51 includes a thrust cylinder 511, a slide rail 512, and a slide plate 513. The slide rail 512 is installed on the side of the second substrate 12 away from the first substrate 11 along the second direction Y. The slide plate 513 is slidably installed on the slide rail 512 so that the slide rail 512 guides the slide plate 513 to slide along the second direction Y. The shape of the slide plate 513 is generally "L"-shaped, and along the third direction X, the two opposite sides of the slide plate 513 are respectively convexly provided with a first convex portion 5131 and a second convex portion 5132.

[0121] Along the second direction Y, the thrust cylinder 511 is installed on a side of the second substrate 12 away from the first substrate 11 , and a driving end of the thrust cylinder 511 is connected to the first protrusion 5131 to push and pull the sliding plate 513 along the second direction Y.

[0122] In this embodiment, along the second direction Y, a lifting mechanism 52 is provided on the opposite sides of the sliding plates 513 of the two second sliding mechanisms 51. The lifting mechanism 52 is a screw lifting slide and is provided along the first direction Z.

[0123] The second clamping assembly 40 includes a first clamping jaw 41 and a second clamping jaw 42. Along the second direction Y, the first clamping jaw 41 and the second clamping jaw 42 are spaced apart, and the lifting mechanisms 52 of the two second moving assemblies 50 are respectively connected to the first clamping jaw 41 and the second clamping jaw 42 to drive the first clamping jaw 41 and the second clamping jaw 42 to move toward or away from each other, thereby enabling the second clamping assembly 40 to clamp or release the wire drum 5.

[0124] The first clamping jaw 41 and the second clamping jaw 42 are both in an "L" shape and include a vertical portion 411 and a horizontal portion 412. The vertical portion 411 is arranged along the first direction Z, and along the second direction Y, the vertical portion 411 is arranged at intervals on the outside of the base 10. The side of the vertical portion 411 close to the base 10 is connected to the lifting end of the lifting mechanism 52, and the horizontal portion 412 is arranged along the second direction Y. One end of the horizontal portion 412 is fixed to the side of the bottom end of the vertical portion 411 close to the base 10, and the other end of the horizontal portion 412 can be clamped in the center hole 504 of the two side portions 502, so that the wire drum 5 is pressed tightly by the two side portions 502 of the first clamping jaw 41 and the second clamping jaw 42.

[0125] It is worth noting that along the second direction Y, the length of the horizontal portion 412 should satisfy the following requirement: when the horizontal portion 412 abuts against the side portion 502 , there is still a gap between the vertical portion 411 and the base 10 to prevent the vertical portion 411 from pressing against the base 10 .

[0126] Thus, in the initial state, the first clamping jaw 41 and the second clamping jaw 42 are located at their maximum upward travel and are in a retracted state, so as to avoid interference between the narrow space at the cradle 4 and the second clamping assembly 40 when the lifting assembly 2 drives the base 10 to descend to the cradle 4. When the first clamping assembly 20 clamps the wire drum 5 and rises to the second clamping assembly 40 so as not to be restricted by the narrow space at the cradle 4, the lifting mechanism 52 drives the first clamping jaw 41 and the second clamping jaw 42 to descend to the horizontal portion 412 below the first hook 21 and the second hook 22. Subsequently, the two second sliding mechanisms 51 drive the first clamping jaw 41 and the second clamping jaw 42 to press against the center of the wire drum 5, thereby ensuring that the wire drum 5 will not shake during the subsequent lifting process, reducing safety hazards.

[0127] In this embodiment, the automatic loading and unloading equipment 100 further includes a limit assembly 80. When the two second sliding mechanisms 51 drive the first clamping jaw 41 and the second clamping jaw 42 to move close to each other, the limit assembly 80 is configured to limit the maximum sliding stroke of the first clamping jaw 41 and the second clamping jaw 42 respectively.

[0128] Specifically, the limiting assembly 80 includes a limiting seat 81 and a limiting member 82. The limiting seat 81 is fixed to the side of the second substrate 12 away from the first substrate 11, and the limiting member 82 is arranged through the limiting seat 81 along the second direction Y. One end of the limiting member 82 is used to abut against the second protrusion 5132 to limit the sliding plate 513 from sliding further. The limiting member 82 is threadedly matched with the limiting seat 81 to achieve position adjustment of the limiting member 82 relative to the limiting seat 81 in the second direction Y.

[0129] The number of the limiting components 80 is set to two to respectively limit the maximum sliding stroke of the two sliding plates 513 when sliding toward one side of the connecting seat 13 , thereby adjusting the clamping position of the first clamping jaw 41 and the second clamping jaw 42 .

[0130] Please combine again Figure 7 and Figure 8 In one embodiment, the swing mechanism 61 includes a swing seat 611 , a swing member 612 , an elastic member 613 , and a supporting member 614 .

[0131] The swing seat 611 is fixed to the side of the first substrate 11 away from the second substrate 12, and the shape of the swing member 612 is roughly a "water drop" shape. Along the first direction Z, the top end of the swing member 612 is rotatably connected to the swing seat 611, and the direction of the rotation axis of the swing member 612 is parallel to the second direction Y.

[0132] The elastic member 613 is a compression spring or the like. One end of the elastic member 613 is elastically connected to the middle portion of the swing member 612 , and the other end of the elastic member 613 is elastically connected to the swing seat 611 .

[0133] The extension direction of the abutment 614 is parallel to the second direction Y, and the number of the swing seat 611 and the swing member 612 is set to two. Along the second direction Y, the two swing members 612 are arranged at intervals, and the abutment 614 is arranged between the two swing members 612, and the two ends of the abutment 614 are respectively connected to the two swing members 612. The shape of the abutment 614 is cylindrical, and the extension length of the abutment 614 is greater than the distance between the two side portions 502, so that the abutment 614 can abut against the side portion 502 of the wire drum 5. In addition, along the first direction Z, the two abutment 614 are both located below the first hook 21 and the second hook 22.

[0134] When the alignment component 60 and the wire drum 5 are in a separated state, the distance between the two abutting members 614 is smaller than the length of the wire drum 5 in the third direction X. In this way, when the lifting component 2 drives the base 10 to descend, the two abutting members 614 first abut against the outer peripheral surface of the side portion 502 of the wire drum 5, and the abutting members 614 slide downward along the outer peripheral surface of the side portion 502, and the elastic member 613 is gradually stretched to apply a resetting elastic force to the abutting members 614, so that the two abutting members 614 have a tendency to move closer to each other, so that the center of the wire drum 5 is adjusted to a suitable position after the wire drum 5 is clamped by the two abutting members 614, thereby facilitating the subsequent operation of the first clamping component 20 and the second clamping component 40. Subsequently, when the lifting component 2 drives the base 10 to rise, the wire drum 5 can be directly separated from the two abutting members 614, and the abutting members 614 are reset under the action of the elastic member 613 to facilitate subsequent alignment again.

[0135] In the above, the specific embodiments of the present application are described with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes and substitutions may be made to the specific embodiments of the present application without departing from the scope of the present application. These changes and substitutions are all within the scope defined by the present application.
