Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of anchor cable processing, in particular to an automatic hook installation device for an anchor cable end. Background Art

[0002] The anchor hook consists of a wire rope and a hook. One end of the wire rope is passed through the hook, and one end of the wire rope is bent and rolled into a ring. The two strands of wire rope are then pressed and fixed together through a locking sleeve for lifting, pulling, tightening and carrying purposes.

[0003] The anchor hook uses a locking sleeve to fix the wire rope head and the wire rope together. A hydraulic press is needed to press the locking sleeve together. When pressing together, the wire rope head and the wire rope need to be fitted together to make the end of the wire rope form a loop.

[0004] In the prior art, the end looping of a wire rope is performed by passing the end of the wire rope through a winding tube to form a loop and then locking it. For example, publication number CN117604794A discloses an end looping device for wire rope production, and publication number CN115383015A discloses an end looping device for wire rope.

[0005] However, it is difficult to pass the wire rope directly through the coil tube, especially the wire rope used for anchor cables, which is strong and not easy to bend. When the wire rope moves along the coil tube to form a loop, the coil tube is in the shape of a heart, which causes great friction between the wire rope and the inner wall of the coil tube, which can easily cause the end of the wire rope to not pass through the coil tube smoothly, thereby affecting the loop formation of the wire rope end, and the wire rope with excessive strength needs to be passed through the locking sleeve twice, which is difficult to operate. For this reason, we propose an automatic installation hook device for the end of the anchor cable. Summary of the Invention

[0021] 4. Ensure operational safety: The baffle set on the second horizontal guide block can prevent the free end of the wire rope from rushing forward from the front end of the second horizontal guide block due to the rebound of the elastic telescopic rod after it leaves the limit block, eliminating safety hazards and ensuring the safety of operators.

[0022] 5. Easy to place and pass through the hook: The placement slot on the support plate is connected to the avoidance slot on the arc-shaped guide block, which facilitates the placement and sliding of the hook, allowing the wire rope to pass through the hook smoothly, optimizing the overall operation process.

[0039] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments; based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0041] like Figure 1-Figure 7As shown, the present invention provides an automatic installation hook device for the end of an anchor cable, comprising a workbench 1, a left guide assembly 2, a right guide assembly 3 and a curved guide assembly 4, wherein the left guide assembly 2 includes a horizontal guide block 21 slidably arranged on the workbench 1, the right guide assembly 3 includes a horizontal guide block 2 31 slidably arranged on the workbench 1, the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the horizontal guide block 2 31 are arranged opposite to each other, and the curved guide assembly 4 includes an arc-shaped guide block 41 slidably arranged on the workbench 1, the two ends of the arc-shaped guide block 41 are respectively in contact and aligned with one end of the horizontal guide block 1 21 and one end of the horizontal guide block 2 31, the bottom of the opposite surfaces of the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the horizontal guide block 2 31 are both integrally formed with a support platform 22, and the bottom of the arc-shaped guide block 41 is integrally formed with a support plate 42, the connection between the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the horizontal guide block 2 31 and the support platform 22 are all rounded, and the connection between the arc-shaped guide block 41 and the support plate 42 is rounded.

[0042] Working principle: The wire rope is conveyed in sequence along the horizontal guide block 1 21, the arc guide block 41 and the horizontal guide block 2 31, and is bent under the guidance of the arc guide block 41. The bending shape of the arc guide block 41 is smoother than the bending shape of the traditional irregular heart-shaped coil tube, and it is easy to guide the wire rope to bend; at the same time, when conveying the wire rope, the wire rope can pass through the locking sleeve 5 placed on the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the hook placed on the arc guide block 41. The locking sleeve 5 and the hook are placed in advance, and then the free end of the wire rope moves to the horizontal guide block 2 31 and stops. The diameter range of the wire rope must exceed the edge of the support 22. This is to avoid collision between the supports 22 on both sides when tightening the locking sleeve 5 and the wire rope; the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the horizontal guide block 2 31 are both provided with a card slot at the bottom, and the workbench 1 is fixed with a guide rail that slides with the card slot, so that the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the horizontal guide block 2 31 can move in a straight line.

[0043] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the left guide assembly 2 also includes a drive unit 23, which includes a cylinder 231 and a U-shaped frame 232. The U-shaped frame 232 is horizontally and fixedly arranged on the side wall of the horizontal guide block 21. The cylinder 231 is fixedly arranged on the workbench 1, and its horizontal output end is fixedly connected to the middle part of the U-shaped frame 232.

[0044] By setting up a driving unit 23, the expansion and contraction of the starting cylinder 231 is utilized to drive the movement of the U-shaped frame 232 and the horizontal guide block 21, thereby realizing the movement of the wire rope and the locking sleeve 5, and realizing the subsequent fitting of the wire rope and the tightening of the locking sleeve 5.

[0045] like Figure 6-Figure 8As shown, the left guide assembly 2 also includes a force storage unit 24, which includes a slide bar 241, a spring 242, a slider 243 and a clamping rod 244. The slide bar 241 is fixed between the front and rear inner walls of the U-shaped frame 232, the slider 243 is slidably sleeved on the slide bar 241, the spring 242 is slidably sleeved on the slide bar 241, and abuts between the slider 243 and the front side of the U-shaped frame 232. The clamping rod 244 is symmetrical and fixed on the slide bar 243. On the side wall facing the horizontal guide block 21, a receiving groove 27 is provided on the right side wall of the horizontal guide block 21, and a lock sleeve 5 is placed in the receiving groove 27. A long strip opening 28 connected to the U-shaped frame 232 is provided on the left inner wall of the receiving groove 27. The clamping rod 244 slides through the long strip opening 28. One end of the lock sleeve 5 is in contact with the left and rear inner walls of the receiving groove 27 and is stuck between the two groups of clamping rods 244. The distance between the two groups of clamping rods 244 is equal to the width of the lock sleeve 5.

[0046] like Figure 3 、 Figure 14 As shown, the left guide assembly 2 also includes a pulling unit 25, which includes a pull rope 251, a fixed pulley 252, a fixed plate 253 and a pull rod 254. The fixed plate 253 is fixed on the workbench 1, and the pull rod 254 slides through the fixed plate 253. One end of the pull rod 254 is fixed with a limit plate 1 255, and the other end of the pull rod 254 is fixed with a limit plate 256. The fixed pulley 252 is fixedly installed in front of the U-shaped frame 1 232. One end of the pull rope 251 is fixedly connected to the slider 243, and the other end of the pull rope 251 passes through the front side of the U-shaped frame 232, and is fixedly connected to the limit plate 255 after passing the fixed pulley 252. The pulling unit 25 also includes a spring 257, and the spring 257 is slidably sleeved on the pull rod 254 and abuts between the limit plate 256 and the fixed plate 253. The pull rope 251 on the pulling unit 25 is connected to the slider 243 on the power storage unit 24.

[0047] The working principle of the driving unit 23, the pulling unit 25 and the force storage unit 24: when the driving unit 23 drives the horizontal guide block 21 to move toward the horizontal guide block 2 31, the pull rope 251 on the pulling unit 25 pulls the slider 243, so that the slider 243 moves along the slide rod 241 and squeezes the spring 1 242. The movement of the slider 243 drives the clamping rod 244 to move, and then drives the locking sleeve 5 between the clamping rods 244 to move, so that the locking sleeve 5 moves to the front side, which is convenient for the subsequent alignment and connection of the free end of the wire rope.

[0048] like Figures 1-8As shown, the right guide assembly 3 also includes a second drive unit 32, which includes a second cylinder 321 and a second U-shaped frame 322. The second U-shaped frame 322 is fixed to the side wall of the second horizontal guide block 31, and the second cylinder 321 is fixed on the workbench 1, and its output end is fixedly connected to the middle part of the second U-shaped frame 322.

[0049] By setting up the driving unit 2 32, the extension and contraction of the starting cylinder 2 321 are utilized to drive the extension and contraction of the U-shaped frame 2 322 and the horizontal guide block 2 31, thereby realizing the movement of the wire rope and the locking sleeve 5, and realizing the relative movement of the horizontal guide block 2 31 and the horizontal guide block 1 21, thereby realizing the fitting of the wire rope and the tightening of the locking sleeve 5.

[0050] like Figure 6-Figure 8 As shown, the right guide assembly 3 also includes a limit unit 33, a limit slot 34 is defined on the left side wall of the horizontal guide block 2 31, the limit slot 34 is the same as the accommodating slot 27, and a receiving slot 35 is defined on the right inner wall of the limit slot 34. The limit unit 33 includes a limit block 331, a connecting rod 332 and a spring three 333. The connecting rod 332 slides along the left and right directions and passes through the inner wall of one side of the receiving slot 35. The limit block 331 is fixedly provided at one end of the connecting rod 332, and the other end of the connecting rod 332 is fixedly provided with a stop block 1 334. The spring three 333 is slidably sleeved on the connecting rod 332 and abuts between the limit block 331 and the inner wall of the receiving slot 35. The limit block 331 extends into the limit slot 34. When the other end of the locking sleeve 5 moves into the limit slot 34, the limit block 331 is squeezed into the receiving slot 35.

[0051] like Figure 10-11 As shown, the bending guide assembly 4 also includes an elastic support unit 43, and the elastic support unit 43 includes a support plate 431 and an elastic telescopic rod 432. The support plate 431 is fixed on the workbench 1 and is located in front of the arc-shaped guide block 41. The elastic telescopic rod 432 is symmetrical and fixed on the support plate 431, and one end thereof is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped guide block 41. A cylinder three 433 is also fixed on the support plate 431, and the cylinder three 433 is located between the two groups of elastic telescopic rods 432. An arc plate 434 is fixed on the output end of the cylinder three 433, and the arc plate 434 fits with the front end of the arc guide block 41 when it moves forward.

[0052] The working principle of the limiting unit 33 and the elastic support unit 43: they can limit the free end of the wire rope and resist. When the locking sleeve 5 moves into the limiting groove 34 and squeezes the limiting block 331 into the receiving groove 35, the limit on the free end of the wire rope is released. At this time, the free end of the wire rope can enter the locking sleeve 5 under the rebound of the elastic support unit 43, completing the operation of the two strands of wire rope entering the locking sleeve 5. When used specifically, the cylinder 1 231 and the cylinder 2 321 are extended, and the cylinder 3 433 is contracted. The arc guide block 41 is no longer rigidly supported by the cylinder 3 433. At this time, under the action of the bending force of the wire rope, the arc guide block 41 is driven to squeeze the elastic telescopic rod 432. When the horizontal guide block 1 21 drives the locking sleeve 5 into the limiting groove When the locking sled 32 is unlocked, the locking sled 32 is unlocked and the locking sled 32 is unlocked, and the locking sled 32 is unlocked.

[0053] like Figures 1-9 、 Figure 12 、 Figure 13As shown, the left guide assembly 2 also includes a clamping unit 26, which is located at the front end of the horizontal guide block 21. The clamping unit 26 includes a clamping block 261, a connecting plate 1 262, a connecting plate 2 263, a push rod 264 and a spring 4 265. One end of the connecting plate 1 262 is vertically fixed to the front end of the horizontal guide block 21, and the connecting plate 2 263 is vertically fixed to the other end of the connecting plate 1 262. The connecting plate 2 263 is located in front of the horizontal guide block 2 31. The push rod 264 slides through the connecting plate 2 263. The clamping block 261 is fixed to one end of the push rod 264 facing the horizontal guide block 21 and slides in contact with the connecting plate 1 262. The other end of the push rod 264 is fixed with a stopper 266, the spring 4 265 is slidably sleeved on the push rod 264, and is in contact between the clamping block 261 and the connecting plate 263, the clamping block 261 is provided with a threading hole 267 with a semicircular cross-section, and a combination block 268 is fixed on the side wall of the horizontal guide block 21 facing the clamping block 261, and the bottom of the combination block 268 is arc-shaped, the threading hole 267, the bottom of the combination block 268 and the connection between the horizontal guide block 21 and the support 22 together form a circular channel 269, and a notch 2610 is provided at the connection between the connecting plate 1 262 and the horizontal guide block 21, and the notch 2610 and the connection between the horizontal guide block 21 and the support 22 together form a feeding port 2611 with an open top.

[0054] The working principle of the clamping unit 26: Using the clamping unit 26, when the steel wire rope passes through the feed port 2611 and moves along the circular channel 269, the steel wire rope can be clamped to keep the conveying direction of the steel wire rope from shifting. The movement of the horizontal guide block 21 will drive the movement of the entire clamping unit 26, so that the clamping unit 26 is always pressed on the steel wire rope. When the stop block 266 is pulled to one side, the push rod 264 and the clamping block 261 are driven away from the horizontal guide block 21. At this time, the clamped steel wire rope can be taken out.

[0055] like Figure 5-Figure 7 As shown, a baffle 36 is further provided on the horizontal guide block 2 31 , and the baffle 36 is slidably arranged in the opening surrounded by the horizontal guide block 2 31 and the support platform 22 , and a positioning plate 37 is fixedly provided on the top of the baffle 36 , and a locking bolt 38 is threadedly connected to the positioning plate 37 , and a threaded hole corresponding to the locking bolt 38 is provided on the horizontal guide block 2 31 , The baffle 36 is provided to prevent the free end of the wire rope from rushing forward out of the front end of the horizontal guide block 2 31 under the rebound action of the elastic telescopic rod 432 when it detaches from the limit block 331 , causing a safety hazard. With the baffle 36 , the free end of the wire rope can move to the baffle 36 at most, thereby ensuring the safety of operation.

[0056] like Figure 10-11As shown, a placement groove 44 is provided on the support plate 42, and an avoidance groove 45 is provided in the middle of the arc-shaped guide block 41. The placement groove 44 is connected to the avoidance groove 45. Through the provided placement groove 44, the hook can slide in the placement groove 44 and enter the avoidance groove 45. The avoidance groove 45 can accommodate one end of the hook, so that the wire rope can pass through the hook.

[0057] When in use, the hook is placed in the placement groove 44, and one end of it extends into the avoidance groove 45, and then one end of the lock sleeve 5 is against the left and rear inner walls of the accommodating groove 27, and is stuck between the two sets of clamping rods 244. The distance between the two sets of clamping rods 244 is equal to the width of the lock sleeve 5, and then the wire rope is fed into the feeding port 2611 through the conveying mechanism (the conveying mechanism is a common device for driving the wire rope to move. It is driven by the motor to drive the two sets of driving wheels that clamp the wire rope to rotate, which can drive the wire rope to move forward. It is a prior art and will not be described in detail). The wire rope moves along the inner wall of the horizontal guide block 1 21, the arc guide block 41 and the horizontal guide block 2 31, and automatically passes through the hook and the lock sleeve 5; when the wire rope is input, the elastic force of the spring 4 265 is used to press the pressing block 261 against the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the combination block 268, and enter. The wire rope is compressed while being passed through, and does not affect the transportation of the wire rope. After the wire rope passes through the threading hole 267, it moves along the connection between the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the support platform 22, passes through the locking sleeve 5, continues to move along the arc guide block 41, and bends under the guidance of the arc guide block 41. The bending shape of the arc guide block 41 is smoother than the bending shape of the traditional irregular heart-shaped coil tube, which is easy to guide the wire rope to bend and pass through the hook. When the free end of the wire rope moves to the horizontal guide block 2 31 and conflicts with the limit block 331, the wire rope is transported and separated from the conveying mechanism. During the wire rope transportation process, the cylinder 3 433 drives the arc plate 434 to conflict with the arc guide block 41, so that the arc guide block 41 is in contact with the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the horizontal guide block 2 31.

[0058] Then, cylinder 1 231 and cylinder 2 321 are started to extend and cylinder 3 433 is contracted at the same time. Cylinder 1 231 and cylinder 2 321 drive U-shaped frame 1 232 and U-shaped frame 2 322 to move relative to each other, thereby driving horizontal guide block 1 21 and horizontal guide block 2 31 to move relative to each other. At the same time, under the pull of pull rope 251, slider 243 is driven to slide and squeeze spring 1 242. Spring 1 242 begins to accumulate force. The clamping rod 244 on slider 243 drives the lock sleeve 5 to move forward, and the horizontal guide block 1 21 drives the lock sleeve 5 to move into the limit slot 34 on the horizontal guide block 2 31. It should be noted that when the lock sleeve 5 moves to the frontmost side of the receiving groove 27, the spring 1 242 can no longer be compressed. At this time, the lock sleeve 5 can be inserted into the limit groove 34 and push the limit block 331, but will not interfere with the movement of the free end of the wire rope (because the lock sleeve 5 is at the front side of the free end of the wire rope, that is, it is in contact with the limit block 331, not in contact with the free end of the wire rope). When the horizontal guide block 1 21 continues to drive the lock sleeve 5 to move, the spring 257 begins to be continuously compressed until the lock sleeve 5 pushes the limit block 331 into the receiving groove 35; due to the contraction of the cylinder 3 433, the arc guide block 41 is no longer rigidly supported. At this time, under the bending force of the wire rope, the arc-shaped guide block 41 is driven to squeeze the elastic telescopic rod 432. When the horizontal guide block 21 drives the lock sleeve 5 into the limit groove 34 and squeezes the limit block 331 into the storage groove 35, the free end of the wire rope is no longer resisted by the limit block 331. At this time, under the rebound effect of the elastic telescopic rod 432 (the elastic telescopic rod 432 is a spring-type telescopic rod, which is composed of two rods, one of which is equipped with a spring, and is extended and retracted by elastic force. It is a prior art and will not be described in detail). 1 moves in the direction of the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the horizontal guide block 2 31, so that the arc guide block 41 is again fitted with the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the horizontal guide block 2 31, and the arc guide block 41 drives the wire rope to move as a whole, so that the free end of the wire rope enters the locking sleeve 5, completing the connection between the locking sleeve 5 and the two wire ropes. At this time, the cylinder 1 231 and the cylinder 2 321 continue to extend. At this time, the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the horizontal guide block 2 31 squeeze and deform the locking sleeve 5, thereby pressing the two wire ropes tightly, realizing the automatic threading of the wire rope, the locking sleeve 5 and the hook, and the automatic pressing of the locking sleeve 5;

[0059] Then, after the locking sleeve 5 is squeezed, the cylinder 1 231 and the cylinder 2 321 contract, driving the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the horizontal guide block 2 31 to move away from each other, thereby separating the clamping rod 244 from the locking sleeve 5. At this time, the stop block 266 is pulled to one side, driving the push rod 264 and the pressing block 261 to move away from the horizontal guide block 1 21. At this time, the wire rope can be taken out together with the hook; at the same time, when the horizontal guide block 1 21 and the horizontal guide block 2 31 move away from each other, the spring 1 242 begins to rebound, causing the slider 243 to begin to reset, preparing for the installation of the next wire rope, the locking sleeve 5 and the hook.
