The winding component includes a sliding seat slidably connected to the surface of the guiding base. A first driving member for controlling its sliding on the guiding base is arranged in the sliding seat. At both ends of the surface of the sliding seat, support plates are respectively arranged. A winding roll is detachably connected between the two support plates. A second driving member for driving the winding roll is also included. Baffles are arranged at both ends of the guiding base. Output contacts are arranged on the opposite surfaces of the two baffles. Input contacts cooperating with the output contacts are arranged on the surfaces of the two sliding seats facing the corresponding output contacts. A power supply module electrically connected to the input contacts is arranged in the sliding seat, and the power supply module supplies power to the first driving member and the second driving member.

[0007] The present invention is further arranged as follows: guiding rails are arranged along the length direction on both sides of the surface of the sliding seat, and guiding grooves cooperating with the guiding rails are arranged at the bottom of the sliding seat. The first driving member includes rolling wheels arranged in the guiding grooves, and the rolling wheels roll on the surface of the guiding rails. A first motor for driving the rolling wheels is also included.

[0008] The present invention is further arranged as follows: a rotating shaft is inserted and rotatably connected through the support plate. Key grooves are formed on the opposite surfaces of the two rotating shafts. Splines inserted into the key grooves are arranged at both ends of the winding roll. The second driving member includes a second motor arranged on one side of one of the support plates. A driving gear is arranged on the second motor, and a driven gear meshing with the driving gear is arranged on the rotating shaft.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: the two support plates are slidably connected to the surface of the sliding seat along the length direction of the winding roller, and further includes a third driving member for driving the two sliding seats to move relatively or away from each other.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that: the third driving member includes four electric push cylinders symmetrically arranged on both sides of the surface of the sliding seat, and the telescopic rod ends of the electric push cylinders are respectively fixedly connected to the two support plates.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: a T-shaped groove is formed in the surface of the sliding seat along its length direction, and a T-shaped block slidable in the T-shaped groove is provided at the bottom of the support plate.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that: a guide sleeve is provided on the surface of the sliding seat below the winding roller, a guide groove penetrating through its top is formed in the guide sleeve, a sliding block is slidably connected to the guide groove in the vertical direction, a positioning cover in the shape of a semi-circular ring is provided at the top of the sliding block, and a control member for controlling the lifting of the sliding block is further included.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that: the control member is specifically a butting rod provided on the opposite surfaces of the two baffles, a first through groove for the butting rod to pass through is formed in the support plate, a second through groove for the butting rod to pass through is formed in the guide sleeve, a first inclined surface is provided on the upper surface of the end of the butting rod, and a second inclined surface parallel to the first inclined surface is provided at the bottom of the sliding block.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0018] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Among them, the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals. It should be noted that the terms "front", "rear", "left", "right", "upper" and "lower" used in the following description refer to the directions in the drawings, and the terms "bottom surface" and "top surface", "inner" and "outer" respectively refer to the directions towards or away from the geometric center of a specific component. Specific Embodiment 1:

[0021] As shown in the figure, a fully automatic up-drawing unit includes a guiding base 1. Two winding assemblies 2 are arranged on the surface of the guiding base 1. The winding assembly 2 includes a sliding seat 3 slidably connected to the surface of the guiding base 1. A first driving member for controlling its sliding on the guiding base 1 is arranged in the sliding seat 3. Support plates 4 are respectively arranged at both ends of the surface of the sliding seat 3. A winding roller 5 is detachably connected between the two support plates 4. A second driving member for driving the winding roller 5 is also included. Baffles 6 are arranged at both ends of the guiding base 1. Output contacts 7 are arranged on the opposite surfaces of the two baffles 6. Input contacts 8 cooperating with the output contacts 7 are arranged on the surfaces of the two sliding seats 3 facing the corresponding output contacts 7. A power module (not shown in the figure) electrically connected to the input contacts 8 is arranged in the sliding seat 3. The power module supplies power to the first driving member and the second driving member.

[0022] During production and processing, when a winding assembly 2 moves to the winding station through the first driving member for winding work, the other winding assembly 2 is located at one end of the guiding base 1. After the output contact 7 contacts the input contact 8, the power module is charged, and the winding roller 5 between the two support plates 4 is replaced. When the winding is complete, the wound winding assembly 2 moves to the other end of the guiding base 1 and performs the replacement and charging work of the winding roller 5. The other winding assembly 2 then moves to the winding station for winding work. Repeating this working process can effectively improve production efficiency.

[0023] Guide rails 9 are arranged on both sides of the surface of the sliding seat 3 along its length direction. A guide groove cooperating with the guide rails 9 is arranged at the bottom of the sliding seat 3. The first driving member includes a rolling wheel 10 arranged in the guide groove. The rolling wheel 10 rolls on the surface of the guide rail 9. A first motor (not shown in the figure) for driving the rolling wheel 10 is also included. The power module supplies power to the first motor. It drives the sliding seat 3 to move on the guiding base 1 by driving the rolling wheel 10. To ensure the stable movement of the sliding seat 3, the rolling wheel 10 is specifically set as a gear, and the guide rail 9 is a rack (not shown in the figure).

[0024] A rotating shaft 11 is inserted through and rotatably connected to the support plate 4. Key grooves 12 are formed on the opposite surfaces of the two rotating shafts 11. Splines 13 inserted into the key grooves 12 are arranged at both ends of the winding roller 5. The second driving member includes a second motor 14 arranged on one side of one of the support plates 4. A driving gear 15 is arranged on the second motor 14. A driven gear 16 meshing with the driving gear 15 is arranged on the rotating shaft 11. The two support plates 4 are slidably connected to the surface of the sliding seat 3 along the length direction of the winding roller 5. A third driving member for driving the two sliding seats 3 to move relatively or away from each other is also included.

[0025] Before the winding operation, the third driving member drives the two support plates 4 to move away from each other, and places the winding roller 5 between the two rotating shafts 11. The third driving member drives the two support plates 4 to move relative to each other, so that the spline 13 is inserted into the corresponding key slot 12. After the winding is completed, the third driving member drives the two support plates 4 to move away from each other, so as to load and unload the winding roller 5.

[0026] The third driving member includes four electric push cylinders 17 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the surface of the sliding seat 3. The telescopic rod ends of the electric push cylinders 17 are respectively fixedly connected to the two support plates 4. A T-shaped groove 18 is formed in the surface of the sliding seat 3 along its length direction. A T-shaped block 19 that slides in the T-shaped groove 18 is provided at the bottom of the support plate 4, ensuring that the support plate 4 can be stably driven to move relative to or away from each other.

[0027] A guide sleeve 20 is provided on the surface of the sliding seat 3 below the winding roller 5. The guide sleeve 20 is provided with a guide groove penetrating its top. A sliding block 21 is slidably connected to the guide groove in the vertical direction. A positioning cover 22 in the shape of a semi-circular ring is provided at the top of the sliding block 21. A control member is further included for controlling the lifting of the sliding block 21. When the winding assembly 2 is positioned at the end of the guiding base 1 and it is necessary to load or unload the winding roller 5, the control member is used to raise the sliding block 21 and the positioning cover 22 to support the bottom of the winding roller 5, thereby further facilitating the loading and unloading of the winding roller 5.

[0028] The control member is specifically a contact rod 23 provided on the opposite surfaces of the two baffles 6. The support plate 4 is provided with a first through groove 24 for the contact rod 23 to pass through. The guide sleeve 20 is provided with a second through groove 25 for the contact rod 23 to pass through. A first inclined surface 26 is provided on the upper surface of the end of the contact rod 23. A second inclined surface 27 parallel to the first inclined surface 26 is provided at the bottom of the sliding block 21.

[0029] After the winding assembly 2 moves to the end of the guiding base 1, the contact rod 23 passes through the first through groove 24 and the second through groove 25, so that the first inclined surface 26 abuts against the second inclined surface 27, thereby driving the sliding block 21 to rise, and finally the positioning cover 22 abuts against the bottom of the winding roller 5 to support the winding roller 5, so as to facilitate its loading and unloading.

[0030] Limiting edges 28 are provided along the inner wall at both ends of the positioning cover 22. After the positioning cover 22 rises under the action of the control member, the limiting edges 28 abut against the circumferential side of the end of the winding roller 5, thereby playing a limiting role in the horizontal direction of the winding roller 5, and further ensuring the stability of the winding roller 5 during loading and unloading. Specific Embodiment 2:

[0032] A working method for an up-drawing unit includes the following steps: Step S1: Install the take-up roller 5 between the two support plates 4 of a set of take-up assemblies 2. Drive it to slide along the guiding base 1 to the take-up station by the first driving member for take-up work. At the same time, place another take-up assembly 2 at the end of the sliding seat 3, so that the input contact 8 is inserted into the output contact 7 to charge the power supply module. At the same time, install the take-up roller 5 between the two support plates 4 of this take-up assembly 2. Step S2: When the take-up assembly 2 in Step S1 finishes taking up, cut the wire. The first driving member drives it to slide towards the end far from the other take-up assembly 2 and perform the charging work. At the same time, remove the take-up roller 5 wound up from the two support plates 4. At the same time, the other take-up assembly 2 moves to the take-up station for take-up work.
