Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of cables, and more specifically, particularly relates to a multi-functional special cable for robots. Background Art

[0002] In the current era of rapid technological development, robots have shined in numerous fields. Whether it is the automated robotic arms in industrial production, which are used to efficiently and precisely complete various processing and assembly tasks, or the food delivery robots and tour guide robots in the service field, which provide convenient and considerate services for people, or the special robots that perform dangerous and arduous missions in some special environments such as space exploration and deep-sea exploration scenarios, etc., their normal operation is inseparable from cables with excellent performance.

[0003] The existing technology still has the following problems:

[0004] First, when the cable is collided and squeezed by external substances during the operation of the robot, the strong extrusion of the external substances may cause the multi-strand stranded conductors inside the cable to deform, and the original uniform stranded structure is damaged. In severe cases, individual strands may even break directly. The deformation of the conductor will increase its resistance, resulting in more heat generation during the power transmission process, not only wasting energy but also possibly further accelerating the aging of other components of the cable. Once the conductor breaks, it will inevitably cause the power transmission to be interrupted, and the robot will instantly lose power and be unable to work. For robots in some key production links, it will cause the entire production line to stagnate, bringing relatively large economic losses.

[0005] Second, a large amount of heat is generated when the cable for the robot is in use. If this heat is not dissipated in time, most of the insulation layer of the cable is made of polymer materials such as plastics and rubbers. When it is in a high-temperature environment for a long time, due to the high temperature, the insulation layer ages and is damaged, and the insulation distance between different conductors may not meet the requirements, extremely likely to cause a short-circuit fault, which may cause the local temperature of the cable to rise sharply, trigger a fire, and cause serious damage to the robot and surrounding equipment and the environment. The excessive current impact may also damage key electrical components such as the power supply and control circuit of the robot, resulting in the complete paralysis of the robot and high maintenance costs.

[0006] Third, when the robot needs to be bent in most places, and the cable is difficult to bend due to size problems, the cable will hinder the range of motion of the joints, making the robotic arm unable to reach the preset maximum angle of motion, restricting its movement flexibility, and thus affecting the work efficiency. For example, in some assembly tasks that require precise positioning and multi-angle operation, the work may not be accurately completed.

[0007] Therefore, in view of this, research and improvement are carried out on the existing structure and deficiencies, and a multi-functional special cable for robots is provided, in order to achieve a more practical and valuable purpose. Summary of the invention

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] When the robot is working, when external objects collide and squeeze the cable, they will first contact the first curved plate, and the first curved plate will shrink inward. While the first curved plate shrinks inward, it will push the push rod to slide into the second air cavity, pushing the gas in the second air cavity into the first air cavity. The gas in the first air cavity increases, and the gas pushes the second curved plate to slide outward. While sliding, the second curved plate will conflict with the first curved plate to prevent the force of external impact and squeezing from being transmitted to the conductor and damaging the cable. This ensures the relative safety of the cable inside when the robot is working, and avoids the cable rupture caused by the robot being hit in the key production link, so that the production process can continue, ensuring work efficiency.

[0022] When the temperature inside the cable rises, the gas collecting box replenishes gas into the fourth air cavity. When the gas passes through the fourth air cavity, the temperature inside the conductor is transferred to the support body, and the temperature on the support body is transferred to the fourth air cavity, thereby dissipating the heat of the cable. When the gas passes through the air duct, the gas in the fourth air cavity is guided to the fifth air cavity. Since the fifth air cavity and the sixth air cavity are connected, the gas will take away the heat generated by the conductor. At the same time, the gas used is an inert gas. When a fire occurs externally, the outer protective cover will be burned, and the internal gas will spray out to extinguish the external flame, thereby avoiding the influence of high temperature and fire on the cable. At the same time, the safety of the robot is ensured, economic losses are reduced, the working efficiency of the robot is improved, and the efficiency of production using the robot is ensured.

[0023] The cable is arranged in multiple sections, and a threaded protective tube is provided between the outer protective sheaths. Due to the setting of the threaded protective tube, bending here can be suitable for multiple bending, recovery, and multi-angle bending. The use of multiple sections in the outer protective sheath improves the bending property of the cable while resisting pressure and high temperature, so that the cable can be used normally by the robot in a complex working environment or when the robot needs to bend multiple times. The cable can be used in different environments and the working efficiency of the robot is ensured, thereby improving the overall working performance and reliability of the robot, and ensuring the smoothness, accuracy and continuity of the robot's movements, so that it can better complete various tasks, whether it is industrial production tasks or various service work in the service field.

[0057] Specific use of the present invention:

[0058] When the robot is moving, when external objects collide and squeeze the cable, they will first contact the first curved plate 14, and the first curved plate 14 will shrink inward. While the first curved plate 14 shrinks inward, it will push the push rod 18 to slide into the second air cavity 23, and push the gas in the second air cavity 23 into the first air cavity 22.

[0059] At the same time, when the temperature inside the cable rises, the gas collecting box 39 transports gas to the fourth air cavity 33. When the gas passes through the fourth air cavity 33, the temperature in the conductor 11 is transferred to the support body 13, and the temperature on the support body 13 is transferred to the fourth air cavity 33, so as to dissipate the heat of the cable. When the gas passes through, the air duct 34 guides the gas in the fourth air cavity 33 to the fifth air cavity 36. Since the fifth air cavity 36 and the sixth air cavity 38 are connected, the gas will take away the heat generated by the conductor 11. At the same time, the gas used is an inert gas. When a fire occurs externally, the outer protective sheath 12 is burned, and the internal gas will be ejected to extinguish the external flame, thereby playing a role in cooling and fire prevention, and ensuring that the cable will not be damaged by high temperature and fire. The gas flow rate can be adjusted by rotating the rotating disk 30.

[0060] A threaded protective tube 25 is arranged between the outer protective sleeves 12. Since the patterns on the threaded protective tube 25 are provided with threads, bending here can be suitable for multiple bending, restoration, and multi-angle bending, so that the required bending work of the robot is guaranteed when it is working. No matter what kind of bending work requirements are faced, the cable can be better adapted.
