Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to data cable manufacturing technology, and more specifically to a feeding mechanism for data cable manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] As is well known, the final step in data cable production is to bundle and encapsulate the data cable. This requires a wire bundling machine to wind, feed, unwind, bundle, and re-feed the data cable. This involves two feeding processes: the first feeding process transports the wound data cable roll to the bundling station, and the second feeding process transports the bundled data cable roll to the collection location. These two feeding processes generally require two mechanical grippers to work together to grasp and release the data cable roll.

[0003] For example, patent CN213265068U, with an authorization announcement date of May 25, 2021, entitled "An Automatic Meter-Counting, Winding, Cutting, and Bundling Integrated Machine," includes: a frame, a worktable on the frame, a wire feeding mechanism, a winding mechanism, and a bundling mechanism on the worktable, and a wire transfer mechanism on the upper part of the frame; the wire feeding mechanism includes a floating platform assembly and a wire delivery mechanism, the floating platform assembly having a wire-forming assembly, a meter-counting wheel assembly, a wire-cutting assembly, a wire-laying clamp assembly, and a wire-holding clamp; the bundling mechanism includes a clamping lower claw assembly, an upper cable tie assembly, and a knotting assembly. This patent automatically measures the length of the bundled wire through the meter-counting wheel assembly, facilitating use. Simultaneously, the knotting assembly extending beyond the worktable directly loosens the bundled wire, allowing it to fall automatically for collection, replacing the wire-taking mechanism of existing bundling machines, simplifying the bundling machine structure, and reducing the production and use costs of this patent.

[0004] For example, patent CN113120345B, authorized on March 31, 2023, entitled "A Wire Winding and Binding Machine," includes a control cabinet, a winding device mounted on the control cabinet, a binding device mounted on the control cabinet, and a main frame positioned between the winding device and the binding device. The winding device includes a winding wheel driven by a winding motor, a wire collecting frame longitudinally positioned outside the winding wheel, an inlet platform positioned between the winding wheel and the wire collecting frame, and an inlet frame positioned above the inlet platform and the wire collecting frame. A core chip on the inlet platform determines whether the end of the wire to be wound can be wound normally based on the actual rotation angle of the winding wheel and the rotation angle range built into the core chip. This patent has the advantages of simple overall processing, high winding and binding speed, and high efficiency.

[0005] The shortcoming of the existing technology is that in the second feeding stroke of the wire tying machine, the mechanical gripper needs to clamp and lift the data cable roll. After the mechanism below the mechanical gripper that is used to place the data cable roll returns to its original position, the gripper on the data cable roll is released, allowing the data cable roll to fall onto the worktable and be output. This feeding process requires the cooperation of the mechanical gripper and other mechanical structures, making it difficult to achieve fast and convenient feeding of data cables. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a feeding mechanism for data cable production to overcome the aforementioned shortcomings of the prior art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A feeding mechanism for data cable production includes a worktable and a clamping assembly slidably mounted on the worktable. The clamping assembly includes two clamping claws for clamping a data cable roll and a spring rod that movably passes through the clamping claws. A cable placement part is rotatably mounted on the top of the spring rod by a torsion spring.

[0009] In the initial state, under the elastic action of the torsion spring, the wire placement part is inclined relative to the horizontal plane.

[0010] The aforementioned feeding mechanism for data cable production includes a clamping assembly comprising a movable platform slidably mounted on a worktable, and a driving assembly mounted on the worktable for driving the movable platform to slide on the worktable.

[0011] In the above-mentioned feeding mechanism for data cable production, a limiting groove is provided at the upper end of the cable placement part, and one end of the limiting groove is horn-shaped.

[0012] In the aforementioned feeding mechanism for data cable production, a transparent film is movable on the mobile platform, with one end of the transparent film overlapping the edge of the workbench so that the transparent film is arranged at an angle.

[0013] In the aforementioned feeding mechanism for data cable production, the top of the clamping claws is provided with a squeezing groove at one end that is close to each other. The squeezing groove is used to contact and squeeze the cable tie heads close to each other.

[0014] In the aforementioned feeding mechanism for data cable production, the clamping claw has a through-hole in the middle, and the spring rod moves through the through-hole. The width of the through-hole is greater than the diameter of the fixed section of the spring rod.

[0015] The above-mentioned feeding mechanism for data cable production includes a clamping claw rotatably mounted on a mobile platform, with the two clamping claws arranged opposite to each other, and also includes a power component for driving the two clamping claws to move synchronously.

[0016] In the above-mentioned feeding mechanism for data cable production, a guide plate is fixedly connected to the middle of the cable placement section, and the guide plate and the cable placement section together form a cross shape.

[0017] In the aforementioned feeding mechanism for data cable production, a mounting groove is provided at the downwardly inclined end of the guide plate, a sliding plate is slidably installed in the mounting groove, a connecting block is formed at the lower end of the sliding plate, an electric push rod is installed at the lower end of the guide plate, and the movable section of the electric push rod is connected to the connecting block.

[0018] In the above-mentioned feeding mechanism for data cable production, the angle between the cable placement part and the horizontal plane ranges from 10° to 30°.

[0019] In the above technical solution, the present invention provides a feeding mechanism for data cable production, including a clamping claw and a cable placement part. The clamping claw is used to clamp the data cable roll, and the cable placement part is used to place cable ties. When the data cable roll is placed on the cable placement part and moves downwards synchronously for a certain distance, the clamping claw is driven to squeeze the two ends of the cable tie closer to each other. At this time, the cable placement part is squeezed and rotates at a certain angle in the horizontal direction, but the clamping claw and the cable placement part can still restrict the data cable roll through compression. After the data cable roll is finished with the cable tie, the clamping claw is released. At this time, under the elastic action of the torsion spring, the cable placement part returns to its initial state, and the finished data cable roll slides down the inclined surface of the cable placement part to complete the feeding. The feeding process does not require the mechanical clamping claw to lift the finished data cable roll, nor does it require removing the clamping components, thereby realizing fast and convenient feeding of data cables.

[0031] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] like Figure 1-8 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides a feeding mechanism for data cable production, including a workbench 1 and a clamping assembly 2 slidably mounted on the workbench 1. The clamping assembly 2 includes two clamping claws 21 for clamping data cable rolls, and a spring rod 22 that movably passes through the clamping claws 21. The top of the spring rod 22 is rotatably mounted with a cable placement part 24 via a torsion spring 23. In the initial state, under the elastic action of the torsion spring 23, the cable placement part 24 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane.

[0033] Specifically, in this embodiment, there are two feeding strokes. The first feeding stroke transports the wound data cable roll to the clamping component 2, and the second feeding stroke transports the wire-tied data cable roll to the collection position. Both feeding strokes are completed by the wire tying machine, which is the final stage of the entire data cable production process. The wire tying machine is existing technology, and is only briefly described here for the sake of understanding this embodiment. The workbench 1 is horizontally arranged with a winding component, a wire feeding component, a wire cutting component, and a movable clamping component 2. In addition, this embodiment also includes two automatic mechanical claws (not shown in the figure): one is the first mechanical claw that transports the wound data cable roll to the clamping component 2, and the other is the mechanical claw that transports the wire-tied data cable roll to the collection position. The first and second mechanical claws are automatically controlled and their working strokes will be briefly described at the corresponding positions. This embodiment mainly focuses on the improvement of the clamping component 2. Therefore, the winding component, cable feeding component, cable cutting component, first mechanical claw, and second mechanical claw will not be described in detail. The winding component is used to wind the data cable. The cable feeding component is used to drive the cable tie to move to the upper end of the cable placement part 24. When the cable tie moves to the cable placement part 24 to a predetermined length, the cable cutting component cuts the cable tie, leaving a cable tie section on the clamping component 2. The clamping claw 21 has an L-shaped structure, and the two clamping claws 21 are symmetrically arranged. The two clamping claws 21 can only... The two clamping claws 21 rotate in a near or far manner. When they move close together, they limit the data cable roll and simultaneously squeeze the two cable tie ends closer together. There are also two spring rods 22, which movably pass through the corresponding clamping claws 21. During normal operation, the rotation of the clamping claws 21 will not contact the spring rods 22, nor will it affect their operation. The top heights of the two spring rods 22 are the same, allowing the cable placement part 24 to be rotatably connected between the two spring rods 22. Furthermore, the inclination direction of the cable placement part 24 is always perpendicular to the line connecting the tops of the spring rods 22. The cable placement part 24 is a square plate-like structure. In the initial state, the cable placement... The top of section 24 is not higher than the top of the gripper 21. This is to prevent the cable tie from being blocked by the gripper 21. Therefore, in this embodiment, the cable placement section 24 actually has two functions: first, to place the cable tie, and second, to quickly feed the cable. The torsion spring 23 is mainly used to maintain the tilted state of the cable placement section 24 and drive the cable placement section 24 to return to its original position in time. In the initial state, that is, when the spring rod 22 is not compressed, the cable placement section 24 is tilted under the elastic action of the torsion spring 23. Thus, after the cable is tied, the gripper 21 moves away from each other. Since the cable placement section 24 is tilted, the data cable roll slides smoothly down the inclined surface of the cable placement section 24.

[0034] In actual operation, the cable placement section 24 has three working strokes, mainly vertical movements, which are sequentially divided into a descent stroke, a rebound stroke, and a reset stroke. During the descent stroke, the first mechanical claw moves the clamped data cable roll above the cable placement section 24, and then moves vertically downward to compress the cable placement section 24 simultaneously (the spring rod 22 is also compressed simultaneously). When the cable placement section 24 has moved a suitable distance, the movement of the first mechanical claw stops. During this stroke, the clamping claw 21 does not perform any other actions. During the rebound stroke, the clamping claw 21 performs a similar movement to initially limit the data cable roll (this initial limit is the initial compression limit performed by the two clamping claws 21 sidewalls approaching each other). Subsequently, the first mechanical claw quickly releases its grip on the data cable roll and rises away. At this time, under the elastic action of the spring rod 22, the cable placement section 24 quickly springs upward and moves the data cable roll back up. As the cable reel moves upward, it is pressed between the end of the clamping claw 21 and the upper end of the cable placement part 24, thus limiting its position. Since the clamping claw 21 provides initial limitation and the cable placement part 24 springs up quickly, the cable reel will not slide out along the inclined surface of the cable placement part 24. Obviously, the inclined surface of the cable placement part 24 does not affect the feeding of the cable reel during the descent and rebound strokes. During the reset stroke, after the cable reel is secured, the clamping claw 21 moves away from the data reel. At this time, the end of the clamping claw 21 no longer limits the cable reel, and the cable placement part 24 resets. Since the upper end of the cable placement part 24 is inclined, the cable reel will slide out along the upper surface of the cable placement part 24. This feeding process does not require the second mechanical claw to lift the secured cable reel, nor does it require removing the clamping component 2, thus achieving fast and convenient feeding of the data cable.

[0035] It should also be noted that a complete working process includes, in sequence, the winding stroke, the unwinding stroke, the wire cutting stroke, the station switching stroke, the descent stroke, the springback stroke, the cable tie stroke, and the reset stroke. During the winding stroke, the winding assembly winds the data cable. During the unwinding stroke, the cable tie is driven to move to the upper end of the cable placement section 24. During the wire cutting stroke, the wire cutting assembly cuts the cable tie so that the cut cable tie segment stays on the cable placement section 24. During the station switching stroke, the first robotic gripper picks up the data cable roll and places it on the cable placement section 24 and the cable tie segment. During the descent stroke, the first robotic gripper squeezes the cable placement section 24 and moves downward synchronously. When the cable placement section 24 moves a suitable distance, it stops. The movement of the mechanical claw; during the return stroke, the first mechanical claw quickly releases its grip on the data cable roll and rises away. At this time, under the elastic action of the spring rod 22, the cable placement part 24 quickly springs up and squeezes the data cable roll between the end of the clamping claw 21 and the upper end of the cable placement part 24. At this time, the clamping claw 21 performs a close movement, squeezing the cable tie head closer. During the cable tie stroke, the second mechanical claw ties the cable tie. During the reset stroke, the clamping claw 21 performs a disengaging movement. At this time, the end of the clamping claw 21 no longer limits the data cable roll, and the cable placement part 24 resets. At this time, since the upper end of the cable placement part 24 is a slope, the data cable roll will slide smoothly out along the upper surface of the cable placement part 24.

[0036] In another embodiment of the present invention, the clamping assembly 2 includes a movable platform 25 slidably mounted on a worktable 1. A driving assembly (not shown in the figure) is also mounted on the worktable 1. The driving assembly is used to drive the movable platform 25 to slide on the worktable 1. The movable platform 25 has two working positions: a wire feeding position and a wire tying position. In the wire feeding position, the movable platform 25 is close to the wire feeding assembly to facilitate wire feeding of the cable tie. In the wire tying position, the movable platform 25 moves under the drive of the driving assembly to a position below the second mechanical claw to tie the wire.

[0037] In another embodiment of the present invention, a limiting groove 241 is provided at the upper end of the wire placement part 24. The limiting groove 241 is correspondingly matched with the outlet of the wire feeding component. The limiting groove 241 is used to limit the cable tie to prevent it from sliding down the upper inclined surface of the wire placement part 24 after being cut. The width of the limiting groove 241 is slightly larger than the width (or diameter) of the cable tie. The end of the limiting groove 241 near the wire feeding component is trumpet-shaped to facilitate the cable tie entering the limiting groove 241.

[0038] In another embodiment of the present invention, a transparent film 251 is movable on the mobile platform 25. The horizontal height of the connection position between the transparent film 251 and the mobile platform 25 is higher than the horizontal height of the working end face of the workbench 1 (that is, the end face where the clamping component 2 is installed). One end of the transparent film 251 overlaps the edge of the workbench 1 so that the transparent film 251 is arranged at an angle. In this way, when the data cable roll that has been tied falls onto the transparent film 251, it will slide directly down the transparent film 251. A collection frame can be set below the workbench 1 to collect the data cable roll.

[0039] In another embodiment of the present invention, a squeezing groove 211 is provided at one end of the top of the clamping claws 21 that is close to each other. The squeezing groove 211 is used to contact and squeeze the cable tie head close to each other. Moreover, when the tops of the clamping claws 21 are in contact with each other, the cable tie head can still extend out of the squeezing groove 211. When the cable placement part 24 is reset, the squeezing groove 211 can also restrict the movement of the cable tie head to ensure that the cable tie head can always extend out.

[0040] In another embodiment of the present invention, the clamping claw 21 has a through-hole 212 in the middle, and the spring rod 22 moves through the through-hole 212. The width of the through-hole 212 is greater than the diameter of the fixed section of the spring rod 22, and the width of the through-hole 212 is also greater than the width of the wire placement part 24. When the clamping claws 21 approach each other, the two ends of the wire placement part 24 pass through the corresponding through-hole 212. The function of the through-hole 212 is to avoid the clamping claws 21 interfering with the operation of the spring rod 22 and the wire placement part 24.

[0041] In another embodiment of the present invention, the clamping claw 21 is rotatably mounted on the mobile platform 25, and the two clamping claws 21 are arranged opposite to each other. It also includes a power component, which is used to drive the two clamping claws 21 to move synchronously. In the prior art, there are many ways to drive the two clamping claws 21 to move relative to each other, such as using the cooperation of a motor and gears to make the two clamping claws 21 move synchronously. Therefore, the power component will not be described in detail.

[0042] In another embodiment of the present invention, a guide plate 26 is fixedly connected to the middle of the wire placement part 24, and the guide plate 26 and the wire placement part 24 together form a cross shape (for ease of understanding). Figure 7 (Both the cable placement section 24 and the guide plate 26 are shown in a horizontal state). The guide plate 26 is used to guide the movement of the data cable roll, so that the data cable roll can move stably down the slope, and at the same time avoid the risk of the data cable roll falling directly during the rebound stroke.

[0043] Since the elastic coefficient of the torsion spring 23 is stable, the angle between the cable placement part 24 and the horizontal plane is also fixed. This means that data cable rolls sliding down the guide plate 26 will most likely fall to the same position, causing them to accumulate in the same location within the collection box. Excessive accumulation may cause the data cable rolls to fall out of the collection box, making collection inconvenient. To solve this technical problem, the present invention provides another embodiment: the guide plate 26 has a mounting groove 261 at its downwardly inclined end, and a sliding mechanism is slidably installed within the mounting groove 261. The sliding plate 262 has a connecting block 263 at its lower end, and an electric push rod is installed at the lower end of the guide plate 26. The movable section of the electric push rod is connected to the connecting block 263. The electric push rod drives the connecting block 263 to move, thereby causing the sliding plate 262 to slide in the mounting groove 261. In this way, by controlling the length of the guide plate 26, the downward stroke of the data cable roll is changed, so that the data cable roll falls at different positions on the transparent film 251, making the data cable roll as evenly distributed as possible in the collection frame, which facilitates the collection of the data cable roll.

[0044] In another embodiment provided by the present invention, see [reference needed]. Figure 6 and Figure 7 The angle between the wire placement part 24 and the horizontal plane is in the range of 10° to 30°. If the angle between the wire placement part 24 and the horizontal plane is too small, it will be difficult for the data cable roll to slide out of the wire placement part 24. If the angle between the wire placement part 24 and the horizontal plane is too large, even if the sliding plate 262 slides, it will be difficult to make the data cable roll fall into the data frame as evenly as possible.

[0045] For further details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 6 and Figure 7In the first feeding stroke, the first robotic claw needs to transfer the data cable roll. During the transfer of the data cable roll and during the return stroke of the cable placement part 24, since the data cable roll is not tied, the data cable roll is prone to becoming messy. Therefore, this embodiment provides a further solution. In this embodiment, for ease of description, the data cable roll is regarded as a whole (which can be approximated as an irregular ring structure) with an inner ring and an outer ring. The end of the inner ring of the data cable roll near the sliding plate 262 is defined as the first inner end 31, and the end of the inner ring of the data cable roll away from the sliding plate 262 is defined as the second inner end 32. A first flat block 264 is formed on the upper end of the sliding plate 262, and a second flat block 265 is formed on the side of the upper end of the guide plate 26 away from the sliding plate 262. The connection between the first flat block 264 and the second flat block 265 is... Parallel to the length of the guide plate 26, the distance between the first flat block 264 and the second flat block 265 is defined as the initial distance. The longest distance between the inner ring of the data cable roll parallel to the length of the guide plate 26 is defined as the accommodating distance. The initial distance is less than the accommodating distance. That is to say, when the data cable roll is placed on the guide plate 26, the first flat block 264 and the second flat block 265 are located within the inner ring of the entire data cable roll. In the initial state, neither the first flat block 264 nor the second flat block 265 is in contact with the data cable roll. In other words, in the initial state, the first flat block 264 has a certain distance from the inner ring of the data cable roll, and the second flat block 265 also has a certain distance from the inner ring of the data cable roll. This is to avoid the first flat block 264 and the second flat block 265 being directly inserted into the part of the data cable roll that is wound and piled up.

[0046] In this embodiment, the movement of the sliding plate 262 specifically includes three working strokes: a sliding stroke, a pulling stroke, and a flattening stroke. During the sliding stroke, after the data cable is wound, the sliding plate 262 is driven to slide outward in the mounting slot 261, thereby causing the first flattening block 264 to slide accordingly. Since the data cable roll is initially limited at this time, the sliding plate 262 and the data cable roll move relative to each other, and the first flattening block 264 slides towards the first inner end 31. When the first flattening block 264 contacts the first inner end 31, the pulling stroke begins. At this time, the second flattening block 265 has not yet contacted the second inner end 32. Therefore, when the first flattening block 264 continues to move, the data cable roll is also pulled and slid a certain distance. At this time, the data cable roll and the first flattening block 264 slide towards the first inner end 31. The entire block 264 moves synchronously, and the second inner end 32 also moves towards the second flattening block 265, while the data cable roll slides relative to the cable placement part 24. When the second flattening block 265 contacts the second inner end 32, it enters the flattening stroke. At this time, since the first flattening block 264 contacts the first inner end 31 and the second flattening block 265 contacts the second inner end 32, the movement of the first flattening block 264 will drive the two ends of the inner coil to spread outward. In this way, the inner coil of the data cable roll is spread outward, thereby restoring the data cable roll to a flat state. Moreover, the spreading outward of the inner coil of the data cable roll is carried out after the cable is tied, so the data cable roll is less likely to become messy. Of course, the degree of spreading outward of the inner coil of the data cable roll is small, mainly to make the data cable roll flat as a whole and to prevent the data cable roll from being excessively stretched.

[0047] In the above embodiment, the sliding plate 262 has three strokes: a sliding stroke, a pulling stroke, and a leveling stroke. The purpose of the sliding stroke is to make the initial gap between the first leveling block 264 and the second leveling block 265 smaller, preventing the first leveling block 264 and the second leveling block 265 from being directly inserted into the part of the data cable roll that is wound and piled up, and also to accommodate different sizes of accommodating gaps. The purpose of the leveling stroke is to make the two ends of the inner ring flare outward, ensuring that the data cable roll is restored to a flat position. The pulling stroke is a transition stroke between the sliding stroke and the leveling stroke. It is not intentionally designed, but the pulling stroke brings two unexpected technical effects. First, since the data cable roll has been bundled, the cable ties move synchronously during the sliding process of the data cable roll, thereby causing some of the cable ties that may be in the limiting groove 241 to pop out of the limiting groove 241. In this way, it can prevent the limiting groove 241 from remaining after the bundled wires are bundled. The cable reel is restricted to allow it to smoothly exit along the inclined surface of the cable placement section 24. Secondly, after the cable is tied, the cable tie heads are wrapped together and arranged vertically, which is not conducive to the collection of the data cable reel. During the sliding of the data cable reel, the portion of the cable tie wrapped around the data cable reel also moves synchronously. However, at this time, the cable tie head is still in the second mechanical claw (the second mechanical claw is stationary during tying and applies appropriate pressure to the cable tie head but does not excessively clamp the cable tie head). Thus, the sliding of the data cable reel causes the cable tie head to be pushed and pressed against the data cable reel, and the cable tie head is arranged horizontally. This also has the function of making the cable tie head lie flat on the data cable reel. In summary, the entire working stroke described above, in addition to preventing the first flat block 264 and the second flat block 265 from being directly inserted into the data cable reel and making the data cable reel flat, also has the functions of making the cable tie pop out of the restriction groove 241 and making the cable tie head lie flat on the data cable reel, which has unexpected technical effects.

[0048] For further details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 6-8Although the first flattening block 264 and the second flattening block 265 can cause the inner coil of the data cable to expand outward, they can also prevent the data cable from sliding out of the cable placement section 24. Therefore, this embodiment provides a further solution, aiming to ensure that after the flattening stroke, the first flattening block 264 and the second flattening block 265 no longer obstruct the data cable placement section 24. Unlike the above embodiment, the first flattening block 264 and the second flattening block 265 are no longer formed on the sliding plate 262 and the guide plate 26, but exist independently. A first movable groove 266 is formed on the side of the sliding plate 262 away from the guide plate 26, and a second movable groove 267 is correspondingly formed on the end of the guide plate 26 away from the sliding plate 262. The first flat block 264 is slidably installed in the first movable groove 266 with its sliding direction perpendicular to the plane of the guide plate 26. The second flat block 265 is slidably installed in the second movable groove 267 with its sliding direction perpendicular to the plane of the guide plate 26. A first ejector block 268 is slidably installed in the first movable groove 266. The end of the first ejector block 268 away from the guide plate 26 is a slope, and this slope is biased towards the guide plate 26 from bottom to top. The sliding direction of the first ejector block 268 is parallel to the length extension direction of the guide plate 26. A first spring 269 is connected between the first ejector block 268 and the inner wall of the first movable groove 266. In the initial state... Under the elastic action of the first spring 269, the first ejector block 268 is located below the first flat block 264 and ejects the first flat block 264 out of the first movable groove 266. A second ejector block 270 is slidably installed in the second movable groove 267. The end of the second ejector block 270 away from the guide plate 26 is an inclined surface, and this inclined surface is biased towards the sliding plate 262 from bottom to top. The sliding direction of the second ejector block 270 is parallel to the length extension direction of the guide plate 26. A second spring 271 connects the second ejector block 270 and the inner wall of the second movable groove 267. In the initial state, under the elastic action of the second spring 271, the second ejector block 270 is located below the first flat block 264 and ejects the first flat block 264 out of the first movable groove 266. Below the flattening block 264, the second flattening block 265 is pushed out of the second movable groove 267. In addition, a spring rope 272 is movably threaded through the sliding plate 262. The elastic coefficient of the spring rope 272 is much greater than that of the first spring 269 or the second spring 271. The spring rope 272 also movably passes through the guide plate 26. One end of the spring rope 272 is connected to the first ejector block 268, and the other end of the spring rope 272 is connected to the second ejector block 270. In the initial state, the spring rope 272 has an untensioned part. That is to say, the first ejector block 268 and the second ejector block 270 will only be driven by the spring rope 272 when the spring rope 272 is fully tensioned.

[0049] After the binding is completed, the drive sliding plate 262 slides outward within the mounting groove 261, causing the first flattening block 264 to slide accordingly. At this time, the spring rope 272 slides relative to the sliding plate 262, and the spring rope 272 is not fully tensioned. Throughout the sliding, pulling, and flattening strokes of the sliding plate 262, the spring rope 272 remains untensioned. When the flattening stroke ends, the sliding plate 262 continues to slide, and the spring rope 272 becomes tensioned. At this point, because the elastic coefficient of the spring rope 272 is much greater than that of the first spring 269 or the second spring 271, therefore… The tensioned spring rope 272 drives the first ejector block 268 and the second ejector block 270 to slide inward, so that the first ejector block 268 does not contact the first flat block 264 and the second ejector block 270 does not contact the second flat block 265. Under the action of their own weight, the first flat block 264 slides down into the first movable groove 266 and the second flat block 265 slides down into the second movable groove 267. In this way, the upper ends of the guide plate 26 and the sliding plate 262 remain flat, which facilitates the data cable roll to slide down.

[0050] Obviously, after the first flat block 264 slides down into the first movable groove 266 and the second flat block 265 slides down into the second movable groove 267, the sliding plate 262 continues to move, stretching the spring rope 272. At this time, the extension length of the sliding plate 262 is changed, so that the data cable roll falls to different positions on the transparent film 251, corresponding to the previously described embodiment.

[0051] The foregoing has only described certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention by way of illustration. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the foregoing drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
