Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wire processing, and in particular to an automatic operation device for coating a heat shrinkable insulation layer of a wire. Background Art

[0002] In the power industry, heat shrink tape wrapping of conductors is an important process to ensure electrical safety and performance. The traditional wrapping method mainly relies on manual operation. Although this method has been widely used in the past many years, it has exposed a series of significant shortcomings in actual operation. First of all, inefficiency is one of the main shortcomings of this method.

[0003] When performing sealing operations, operators usually need to use aerial work vehicles to perform operations. However, in some narrow workplaces, aerial work vehicles cannot enter smoothly, which forces operators to frequently use aerial lifting platforms to move the work location, making the entire operation process cumbersome and time-consuming, seriously affecting work efficiency. Secondly, since this operation process is highly dependent on manual labor, the quality of tape winding is unstable. Operators often find it difficult to maintain the uniformity and tightness of the tape during winding, and are prone to problems such as missing winding, uneven winding, or insufficient tape shrinkage, which affects the insulation effect and increases the risk of subsequent failures. In addition, traditional aerial work methods also have high safety hazards. Summary of the invention

[0029] Example 1

[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 4 , provides an automatic operation device for heat shrinking insulation layer covering of a wire, comprising a frame 100 having a first end 101 and a second end 102;

[0031] The automatic operation device for heat shrinking insulation layer covering of wires includes a limit drive mechanism 200, including a first drive belt 201 and a second drive belt 202 installed on the frame 100, and there is an accommodation gap K between the first drive belt 201 and the second drive belt 202; through the limitation of the first drive point and the second drive belt 202, the wire X can move from the first end 101 to the second end 102 inside the accommodation gap K, so that a long wire X can pass through the frame 100.

[0032] The automatic operation device for wrapping the heat shrinkable insulation layer of the wire includes a wrapping mechanism 300, which is arranged on the frame 100 and is used to wrap the heat shrinkable insulation tape around the outside of the wire X. The wrapping mechanism 300 can drive the heat shrinkable insulation tape to rotate around the wire X. In addition, the movement of the wire X allows the wrapping mechanism 300 to wrap the heat shrinkable insulation tape around the outside of the wire X.

[0033] The automatic operation device for coating the wire heat shrink insulation layer includes a heating mechanism 400, which is installed on the frame 100 and is used to heat the heat shrink insulation tape wrapped around the outside of the wire X; when the wire X wrapped with the heat shrink insulation tape passes through the heating mechanism 400, the heating mechanism 400 heats the heat shrink insulation tape so that the heat shrink insulation tape is tightly coated on the outside of the wire X.

[0034] The wire X can move from the first end 101 to the second end 102 on the frame 100 under the drive of the limit drive mechanism 200. The coating mechanism 300 is closer to the first end 101 than the heating mechanism 400. Therefore, the coating mechanism 300 can first wrap the heat shrinkable insulation tape around the outside of the wire X, and the heating mechanism 400 then heats the heat shrinkable insulation tape.

[0035] The covering mechanism 300 is installed at the first end 101 of the frame 100 , and the heating mechanism 400 is installed at the second end 102 of the frame 100 ;

[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 , discloses another embodiment, in which the covering mechanism 300 is installed at the second end 102 of the frame 100, and the position of the heating mechanism 400 is greater than the distance from the second end 102 of the frame 100 relative to the covering mechanism 300.

[0037] Specifically, the wrapping mechanism 300 includes an outer frame 301 installed on the frame 100, a rotating component 302 installed on the outer frame 301, and a driving ring 303 connected to the rotating component 302; when the rotating component 302 rotates, it can drive the driving ring 303 to rotate, and the driving ring 303 drives the heat shrinkable insulation tape to rotate around the wire X, thereby wrapping the heat shrinkable insulation tape around the outside of the wire X.

[0038] Furthermore, the heating mechanism 400 includes a support frame 401 installed on the frame 100, and a spray pipe 402 installed on the support frame 401, wherein the spray pipe 402 is connected to an external heat supply pipeline, and high-temperature air can be transported to the inside of the spray pipe 402 through the heat supply pipeline. The high-temperature air can heat the heat shrinkable insulation tape, so that the heat shrinkable insulation tape is heat-shrunk.

[0039] Furthermore, a material rack 500 is installed on the frame 100 at a corresponding position of the wrapping mechanism 300, and a heat shrinkable insulating tape reel can be placed on the material rack 500. One end of the heat shrinkable insulating tape is connected to the driving ring 303, so when the driving ring 303 rotates, the heat shrinkable insulating tape can be wrapped around the outside of the wire X.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that: the rotating component 302 includes a rotating gear 302a connected to the driving ring 303, the rotating gear 302a is provided with a through groove 302b, and the through groove 302b penetrates to the radial side wall of the rotating gear 302a; the driving ring 303 is provided with an opening 303a, and the opening 303a extends to the radial side wall of the driving ring 303; the position of the opening 303a corresponds to the position of the through groove 302b.

[0042] By rotating the through slot 302b on the gear 302a, the wire X can be placed at the center of the rotating process. At the same time, the wire X can also enter the center of the driving ring 303 through the opening 303a, so that the driving ring 303 can better rotate around the wire X when rotating.

[0043] Specifically, the outer frame 301 has a circular groove 301a; the driving ring 303 includes a snap-in portion 303b rotatably installed inside the circular groove 301a, and a limiting portion 303c connected to the snap-in portion 303b, and the snap-in portion 303b is connected to the rotating gear 302a.

[0044] The snap-in portion 303b and the limiting portion 303c are both circular. The diameter of the snap-in portion 303b is smaller than the inner diameter of the circular groove 301a, and the diameter of the limiting portion 303c is larger than the inner diameter of the circular groove 301a. The diameter of the rotating gear plate is also larger than the inner diameter of the circular groove 301a. Therefore, the driving ring 303 also plays a role in installing the rotating gear plate on the outer frame 301.

[0045] Furthermore, the rotating component 302 is installed on the outer frame 301, including a driving member 302c, a driving gear 302d connected to the driving member 302c, a first transmission gear 302e and a second transmission gear 302f meshing with the driving gear 302d; the first transmission gear 302e and the second transmission gear 302f are both meshed with the rotating gear 302a.

[0046] Due to the existence of the through groove 302b of the rotating gear 302a, it is difficult to drive the rotating gear 302a by one gear, because when the through groove 302b corresponds to the position of this gear, the transmission connection relationship will be disconnected. Therefore, the first transmission gear 302e and the second transmission gear 302f are used to drive the rotating gear 302a at different positions, so that the rotating gear 302a can be driven continuously.

[0047] The rest of the structure is the same as that of Example 1.

[0048] Example 3

[0049] Reference Figure 6 to Figure 7, this embodiment is different from the above embodiment in that: the first drive belt 201 and the second drive belt 202 have the same structure; the first drive belt 201 and the second drive belt 202 both include: a belt frame 201a, which is installed on the frame 100; a support roller 201b, which is installed on the belt frame 201a and can rotate; a driving roller 201c, which is installed at the end of the belt frame 201a; a friction track 201d, which is covered on the outside of the support roller 201b and the driving roller 201c; a driving belt motor 201e, which is installed on The belt frame 201a is connected to the driving roller 201c and is used to drive the friction track 201d to rotate. When the first driving belt 201 and the second driving belt 202 rotate, the wire X can be pushed by the friction force, so that the wire X moves from the first end 101 to the second end 102. During operation, the driving belt motor 201e drives the driving roller 201c to rotate, and the rotation of the driving roller 201c can drive the friction track 201d to rotate, and the friction track 201d further pushes the wire X to move by the friction force.

[0050] Specifically, the first driving belt 201 is fixedly installed on the frame 100 , and the second driving belt 202 is slidably installed on the frame 100 ; when the second driving belt 202 moves, the size of the accommodating gap K can be adjusted.

[0051] Through this technical solution, the wire X can be placed between the first driving belt 201 and the second driving belt 202 more conveniently. When the placement is completed, the second driving belt 202 is moved toward the first driving belt 201, and the second driving belt 202 can push the wire X toward the first driving belt 201. The first driving belt 201 and the second driving belt 202 clamp the wire X, so when the friction track 201d rotates, the wire X can be pushed to move by friction.

[0052] Furthermore, a track 103 is installed on the frame 100, an adjustment motor 104 is provided on the track 103, a screw rod 105 that can rotate and is connected to the adjustment motor 104 is installed on the track 103, and the outer side of the screw rod 105 is threadedly connected to the moving body 106; the moving body 106 is slidably installed on the track 103, and the belt frame 201a of the second driving belt 202 is installed on the moving body 106.

[0053] By adjusting the rotation of the motor 104, the screw rod 105 can be driven to rotate. Through the rotation of the screw rod 105, the movable body 106 limited by the track 103 can be pushed to move. When the movable body 106 moves, it can drive the second drive belt 202 to move, so that the second drive belt 202 can approach or move away from the first drive belt 201.

[0054] The rest of the structure is the same as that of Example 2.
