[0020] A monitoring method for a convenient automatic wire feeding EDM wire take-up and unload device includes the following steps:

[0021] Step 1: The rotation trajectory of the take-up and unwind assembly driving the elastic crimping assembly is aligned with the wire feeding assembly. The adjustable linkage assembly and translation assembly are adjusted to the disconnected state. The take-up and unwind assembly rotates until there is no cutting wire on the outside of the elastic crimping assembly, and the outside of the elastic crimping assembly is exposed.

[0022] Step 2: The wire feeding assembly contacts the elastic crimping assembly. Unlock the elastic crimping assembly and pull the cutting wire out of the elastic crimping assembly until it is separated from the processed workpiece. Then, place the workpiece to be processed into the processing position. The cutting machine tool pushes the end of the cutting wire into the elastic crimping assembly through the wire feeding assembly.

[0023] Step 3: Determine if there is current in the external power source. If yes, the cutting wire, elastic crimping assembly, wire feeding assembly, and external power source form a closed loop, and proceed to Step 5. If no, the elastic crimping assembly, wire feeding assembly, and external power source do not form a closed loop, and proceed to Step 4.

[0024] Step 4: The cutting machine continues to push the cutting wire, repeating step 3;

[0025] Step 5: The winding end of the unwinding assembly continues to rotate three times, and the cutting wire rotates three times around the outer end of the elastic pressing assembly. Then, the adjustable linkage assembly and the translation assembly are adjusted to the linkage state to perform cutting.

[0026] This invention has the following technical effects: During normal cutting, the adjustable linkage component and translation component of the adjustable take-up and unwind assembly are adjusted to the linkage state. The take-up and unwind assembly rotates to rewind. Simultaneously, the take-up and unwind assembly drives the translation component to rotate through the adjustable linkage component, and the translation component drives the take-up and unwind assembly to move through the adjustable linkage component, realizing automatic cutting by moving and rewinding simultaneously. When changing workpieces, the rotation trajectory of the elastic pressing component driven by the take-up and unwind assembly is aligned with the wire feeding component. The adjustable linkage component and translation component are adjusted to the disconnected state. The take-up and unwind assembly rotates until there is no cutting wire outside the elastic pressing component, and the outer side of the elastic pressing component is exposed. The wire feeding component contacts the elastic pressing component to unlock the elastic pressing component, and the cutting wire is pulled out from the elastic pressing component until it separates from the processed workpiece. Then, the workpiece to be processed is placed... Once positioned in the processing position, the cutting machine pushes the cutting wire end into the elastic pressing assembly via the wire feeding assembly. The cutting wire, elastic pressing assembly, wire feeding assembly, and external power supply form a closed loop, allowing detection of the cutting wire's position within the elastic pressing assembly. This facilitates monitoring whether the cutting wire end is properly positioned. Next, the wire feeding assembly and elastic pressing assembly separate, with the elastic pressing assembly securing the cutting wire end to the take-up end of the take-up / untake-down assembly. The take-up end of the take-up / untake-down assembly then rotates three more times, causing the cutting wire to rotate three times around the outer end of the elastic pressing assembly. These three rotations of the cutting wire press the elastic pressing assembly firmly, preventing it from opening during rotation and avoiding separation of the cutting wire end from the elastic pressing assembly. The cutting wire end is then securely fixed. Finally, the adjustable linkage assembly and translation assembly are adjusted to the linkage state for continued cutting, achieving automatic wire feeding for practical use.

[0043] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments.

[0045] The terms "left," "right," "front," "back," "up," and "down" used in the following description refer to the orientation from the perspective of the front view.

[0046] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-13 An electric spark wire feeding and take-up device for convenient automatic wire feeding, including a frame 1;

[0047] An adjustable take-up and unwind assembly 3 for take-up and unwinding is connected to the top of the frame 1;

[0048] The adjustable take-up and unwind assembly 3 includes a take-up and unwind assembly, an adjustable linkage assembly, and a translation assembly. The translation assembly is fixedly connected to the frame 1, the adjustable linkage assembly is connected to the take-up and unwind assembly, and the adjustable linkage assembly is fixedly connected to the translation assembly. When changing workpieces, the adjustable linkage assembly and the translation assembly are adjusted to a disconnected state, and the take-up and unwind assembly only rotates. When cutting, the adjustable linkage assembly and the translation assembly are adjusted to a linkage state, and the take-up and unwind assembly rotates and moves at the same time.

[0049] The winding end of the unwinding assembly is fixedly connected to an elastic crimping assembly 4 for fixing the end of the cutting wire;

[0050] The side of the frame 1 near the cutting machine tool is connected to a wire feeding assembly 2 for feeding the cutting wire to the elastic pressing assembly 4. The wire feeding assembly 2 is movably connected to the elastic pressing assembly 4. When the cutting wire contacts the elastic pressing assembly 4, the cutting wire, the elastic pressing assembly 4, and the wire feeding assembly 2 form a closed loop. The system detects whether the cutting wire is located inside the elastic pressing assembly 4. The cutting wire is connected to the negative terminal of the external power supply, and the wire feeding assembly 2 is connected to the positive terminal of the external power supply.

[0051] During normal cutting, the adjustable linkage component and translation component of the adjustable take-up and unwind assembly 3 are adjusted to the linkage state. The take-up and unwind assembly rotates to wind up. At the same time, the take-up and unwind assembly drives the translation component to rotate through the adjustable linkage component. The translation component drives the take-up and unwind assembly to move through the adjustable linkage component, so that the take-up and unwind assembly can move and wind up and unwind at the same time, thus achieving automatic cutting.

[0052] When changing workpieces, the rotation trajectory of the take-up and unwind assembly driving the elastic pressing assembly 4 is aligned with the wire feeding assembly 2. The adjustable linkage assembly and translation assembly are adjusted to the disconnected state. The take-up and unwind assembly rotates until there is no cutting wire outside the elastic pressing assembly 4, and the outer side of the elastic pressing assembly 4 is exposed. The wire feeding assembly 2 contacts the elastic pressing assembly 4, unlocking the elastic pressing assembly 4 and pulling the cutting wire out of the elastic pressing assembly 4 until it separates from the processed workpiece. Then, the workpiece to be processed is placed in the processing position, and the cutting machine pushes the end of the cutting wire into the elastic pressing assembly 4 through the wire feeding assembly 2. The cutting wire, the elastic pressing assembly 4, the wire feeding assembly 2, and the external power supply form a closed loop, which can detect the cutting. The wire is located inside the elastic crimping assembly 4, making it easy to determine whether the end of the cutting wire is within the elastic crimping assembly 4. Then, the wire feeding assembly 2 and the elastic crimping assembly 4 separate, and the elastic crimping assembly 4 fixes the end of the cutting wire to the take-up end of the take-up and unwinding assembly. Then, the take-up end of the take-up and unwinding assembly continues to rotate three times, and the cutting wire rotates three times around the outer end of the elastic crimping assembly 4. The three rotations of the cutting wire press the elastic crimping assembly 4 tightly, preventing the elastic crimping assembly 4 from opening during rotation and avoiding the separation of the end of the cutting wire from the elastic crimping assembly 4. The end of the cutting wire is fixed. Then, the adjustable linkage assembly and the translation assembly are adjusted to the linkage state to continue cutting, realizing automatic wire feeding, which is beneficial for practical use.

The lug 312 is slidably connected to the positioning rod 315 through a sliding hole. The end of positioning rod 315 away from the first support block 33 is fixedly connected to the third support block 313. When the lug 312 is separated from the positioning rod 315, gear cylinder 311 is in a meshed connection with the first gear 39 and the first gear ring 319. When the end of the support block 33 meshes with the middle of the first gear 39, the lug 312 and the positioning rod 315 begin to connect. The third support block 313, the guide rail of the second guide rail assembly 314 and the third cylinder 321 are all fixedly connected to the bottom of the U-shaped support frame 34. The drive end of the third cylinder 321 is fixedly connected to the slide plate 320. The slide plate 320 is rotatably connected to the gear cylinder 311 through the bearing. The slide plate 320 is fixedly connected to the slider of the second guide rail assembly 314. The first gear ring 319 is connected to the translation component.

[0055] The translation component includes a threaded rod 31, two sets of first guide rail assemblies 37, a second support block 310, and a fourth support block 322. The end of the threaded rod 31 near the first support block 33 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the first gear ring 319. The fourth support block 322 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 31 through a threaded sleeve. The end of the threaded rod 31 away from the first support block 33 is rotatably connected to the second support block 310. The second support block 310 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the U-shaped support frame 34. The guide rails of the two sets of first guide rail assemblies 37 are fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the top of the frame 1, respectively. The slider of the first guide rail assembly 37 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the U-shaped support frame 34.

[0056] During normal cutting, the third cylinder 321 of the adjustable linkage component of the adjustable take-up and unwind assembly 3 drives the slide plate 320 to move along the second guide rail assembly 314. The slide plate 320 drives the gear cylinder 311 to move towards the first gear 39. The gear cylinder 311 moves to mesh with the first gear 39. When the gear cylinder 311 moves to the end of the first gear 39 near the first support block 33, the lug 312 and the positioning rod 315 are in a disengaged state. The threaded rod 31 of the gear cylinder 311 and the translation component is adjusted to a linkage state. The second motor 36 of the take-up and unwind assembly drives the winding drum 35 to rotate. The winding drum 35 rotates to wind up the wire. At the same time, the winding drum 35 of the take-up and unwind assembly drives the first horizontal shaft 317 of the adjustable linkage component to rotate. 7 drives the second synchronous pulley 316 to rotate, the second synchronous pulley 316 drives the first synchronous pulley 38 to rotate via the synchronous belt 32, the first synchronous pulley 38 drives the second horizontal shaft 318 to rotate, the second horizontal shaft 318 drives the first gear 39 to rotate, the first gear 39 drives the gear cylinder 311 to rotate, the gear cylinder 311 drives the first gear ring 319 to rotate, the first gear ring 319 drives the threaded rod 31 of the translation component to rotate, and with the fourth support block 322 stationary, the third cylinder 321 drives the second support block 310 to move, the second support block 310 drives the U-shaped support frame 34 to move via the first guide rail assembly 37, the U-shaped support frame 34 drives the wire winding drum 35 to move, so that the wire winding drum 35 moves while winding and unwinding, realizing automatic cutting.

[0057] When changing workpieces, the rotation trajectory of the winding and unwinding assembly driving the elastic pressing assembly 4 is aligned with the wire feeding assembly 2. The third cylinder 321 of the adjustable linkage assembly drives the slide plate 320 to move away from the first support block 33 along the second guide rail assembly 314. The slide plate 320 drives the gear cylinder 311 to move towards the first gear ring 319. The end of the gear cylinder 311 near the first support block 33 moves to the middle of the first gear 39. The gear cylinder 311 drives the lug 312 to connect with the positioning rod 315. The gear cylinder 311 continues to move until it separates from the first gear 39. At this time, the third support block 313 and the positioning rod 315 cooperate to lock the gear cylinder 311, ensuring that the gear cylinder 311 does not rotate when the winding drum 35 rotates. At the same time, when the first gear 39 rotates to the disengaged state, it ensures that the first gear 39 and the first gear ring 319 are in the disengaged state, realizing that the first gear 39 and the first gear ring 319 are always in the set state of transmission. The threaded rod 31 of the first gear 39 and the translation component is adjusted to the disengaged state. At this time, the winding and unwinding components only rotate, and the second motor 36 drives the winding drum 35 to rotate. The wire winding spool 35 rotates the elastic pressing assembly 4 until there is no cutting wire on the outside of the elastic pressing assembly 4, and the outside of the elastic pressing assembly 4 is exposed. The wire feeding assembly 2 contacts the elastic pressing assembly 4, unlocking the elastic pressing assembly 4. The cutting machine tool pulls the cutting wire out of the elastic pressing assembly 4 until it separates from the processed workpiece. Then, the workpiece to be processed is placed in the processing position, and the cutting machine tool pushes the end of the cutting wire into the elastic pressing assembly 4 through the wire feeding assembly 2. The wire feeding assembly 2 and the elastic pressing assembly 4 separate, and the elastic pressing assembly 4 pulls the cutting wire out of the elastic pressing assembly 4. The end is fixed to the winding drum 35 of the take-up and unwinding assembly. Then, the second motor 36 of the take-up and unwinding assembly drives the winding end of the winding drum 35 to continue rotating three times. The cutting wire rotates three times around the outer end of the elastic pressing assembly 4. The elastic pressing assembly 4 is pressed tightly by the three turns of the cutting wire to prevent the elastic pressing assembly 4 from opening when rotating, and to avoid the phenomenon of the cutting wire end separating from the elastic pressing assembly 4. The cutting wire end is fixed. Then, the adjustable linkage assembly and the translation assembly are adjusted to the linkage state to continue cutting, realizing automatic wire feeding, which is beneficial to practical use.

[0058] Please see Figure 10 , Figure 12The elastic pressing assembly 4 includes a fixed base 41, a connecting shaft 42, a pressure plate 43, a wear-resistant conductive sheet 44, a torsion spring 45, a connecting base 46, and an insulating isolation sheet 47. The insulating isolation sheet 47 is fixedly installed at one end of the wire winding drum 35. The outer wall of the insulating isolation sheet 47 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the wear-resistant conductive sheet 44. The end of the wear-resistant conductive sheet 44 away from the wire feeding assembly 2 is fixedly connected to the fixed base 41. The outer end of the fixed base 41 is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 42. The end of the connecting shaft 42 away from the fixed base 41 is rotatably connected to the connecting base 46. The torsion spring 45 is sleeved on the part of the connecting shaft 42 located between the connecting base 46 and the fixed base 41. The two ends of the torsion spring 45 are respectively in contact with the protruding parts of the fixed base 41 and the connecting base 46. The end of the connecting base 46 near the wire feeding assembly 2 is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 43.

[0059] When a workpiece needs to be changed, the second motor 36 drives the wire winding drum 35 to rotate. The wire winding drum 35 drives the elastic pressing assembly 4 to rotate until there is no cutting wire on the outside of the pressure plate 43, the outside of the pressure plate 43 is exposed, and the pressure plate 43 is vertically downward. The wire feeding assembly 2 moves to the inner wall of the pressure plate 43 and drives the pressure plate 43 to rotate. The pressure plate 43 drives the connecting seat 46 to rotate along the connecting shaft 42. The torsion spring 45 is in a compressed state, unlocking the pressure plate 43. The cutting machine tool pulls the cutting wire out of the pressure plate 43 until it is separated from the processed workpiece. Then, the workpiece to be processed is placed in the processing position. The cutting machine tool pushes the end of the cutting wire into the pressure plate 43 through the wire feeding assembly 2. The cutting wire, the wear-resistant conductive sheet 44, the wire feeding assembly 2, and the external power supply form a closed circuit to generate current, indicating that the cutting wire is located inside the pressure plate 43. If no current is generated when component 2 and the external power supply do not form a closed circuit, it indicates that the cutting wire is not inside the pressure plate 43. This makes it easy to determine whether the end of the cutting wire is inside the pressure plate 43. The wire feeding assembly 2 and the pressure plate 43 separate. The restoring force of the torsion spring 45 drives the connecting seat 46 to rotate along the connecting shaft 42. The connecting seat 46 drives the pressure plate 43 to rotate. The pressure plate 43 presses the end of the cutting wire onto the outer wall of the wear-resistant conductive sheet 44, fixing the end of the cutting wire onto the winding drum 35 of the winding assembly. Then the winding drum 35 continues to rotate three times, and the cutting wire rotates three times around the outer end of the pressure plate 43. The three rotations of the cutting wire press the pressure plate 43 tightly, preventing the pressure plate 43 from opening during rotation and avoiding the separation of the end of the cutting wire from the pressure plate 43. The cutting wire end is effectively fixed, which facilitates the automatic loading and unloading of the cutting wire end and allows for the detection of whether the end of the cutting wire is inside the pressure plate 43.

[0060] Please see Figure 3 , Figures 8-11The wire feeding assembly 2 includes a conductive component, a drive feeding assembly, and an auxiliary conveying assembly. The drive feeding assembly is fixedly connected to the cutting machine tool, the drive feeding assembly is connected to the auxiliary conveying assembly, and the auxiliary conveying assembly is movably connected to the cutting wire. The conductive component is located at the end of the drive feeding assembly near the winding drum 35. When the pressure plate 43 contacts the drive feeding assembly, the conductive component is in close contact with the wear-resistant conductive sheet 44.

[0061] The drive feeding assembly includes a hollow support frame 22, a first connecting frame 24, a second cylinder 25, a sleeve 26, a first connecting seat 29, a wire guide tube 211, an inner tube 215, and a reducing connector 218. The sleeve 26 and the first connecting frame 24 are both fixedly connected to the cutting machine tool. The second cylinder 25 is fixedly connected to the first connecting frame 24. The first connecting seat 29 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the second cylinder 25. The hollow support frame 22 is fixedly connected to the first connecting seat 29 near the side wall of the wire winding drum 35. The end of the hollow support frame 22 near the wire winding drum 35... The variable diameter connector 218 is fixedly connected to the wire winding drum 35. The end of the variable diameter connector 218 near the wire winding drum 35 is fixedly connected to the wire guide tube 211.

The outer wall of the inner tube 215 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 26. The inner tube 215 is movably connected to the auxiliary conveying component. The end of the variable diameter connector 218 near the wire winding drum 35 is fixedly connected to the conductive component. The sleeve 26, the inner tube 215, the variable diameter connector 218 and the wire guide tube 211 are all made of insulating material.

[0062] The conductive component includes a wire 21 and a conductive block 28. The conductive block 28 is fixedly installed on the end of the variable diameter connector 218 near the winding drum 35. The side wall of the conductive block 28 is electrically connected to the wire 21. The top of the end of the conduit 211 and the conductive block 28 near the hollow support frame 22 are both provided with inclined grooves 216. The conduit 211 and the conductive block 28 are in contact with the wear-resistant conductive sheet 44 through the inclined grooves 216.

[0063] Wire 21 is connected to the positive terminal of an external power source;

[0064] The auxiliary conveying assembly includes a first cylinder 23, a first motor 27, a first support frame 212, and a pressure roller 213. The first support frame 212 is fixedly installed on the top of the hollow support frame 22. The first cylinder 23 is fixedly installed on the top of the first support frame 212. The driving end of the first cylinder 23 is rotatably connected to the pressure roller 213 through a fixedly connected connecting frame. The top of the inner tube 215 is provided with an upper straight groove 214, and the pressure roller 213 moves within the upper straight groove 214. The first motor 27 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the hollow support frame 22. The driving end of the first motor 27 is fixedly connected to the driving wheel 217. The bottom of the inner tube 215 is provided with a lower groove 210, and the lower groove 210 is slidably connected to the driving wheel 217.

[0065] During cutting, the first cylinder 23 of the auxiliary conveying component of the wire feeding assembly 2 drives the pressure roller 213 to move upward along the upper straight groove 214, and the pressure roller 213 does not contact the cutting wire.

[0066] When a workpiece needs to be changed, the second motor 36 drives the wire winding drum 35 to rotate. The wire winding drum 35 drives the elastic pressing assembly 4 to rotate until there is no cutting wire on the outside of the pressure plate 43, and the outside of the pressure plate 43 is exposed. The second cylinder 25 of the driving feeding assembly drives the first connecting frame 24 to move. The first connecting frame 24 drives the first connecting seat 29 to move. The first connecting seat 29 drives the hollow support frame 22 to move. The hollow support frame 22 drives the inner tube 215, the wire guide tube 211, and the reducing connector 218. The wire guide tube 211 moves to the inner wall of the pressure plate 43, driving the pressure plate 43 to rotate. 3. The connecting seat 46 rotates along the connecting shaft 42, and the torsion spring 45 is in a compressed state, unlocking the pressure plate 43. The cutting machine tool pulls the cutting wire out of the pressure plate 43. The cutting wire passes through the conduit 211, the reducing connector 218, the inner tube 215, and the sleeve 26 until it separates from the processed workpiece. Then, the workpiece to be processed is placed in the processing position. The cutting machine tool pushes the end of the cutting wire into the pressure plate 43 through the conduit 211, the reducing connector 218, the inner tube 215, and the sleeve 26. The cutting wire, the wear-resistant conductive sheet 44, the inclined groove 216, the wire 21, and the outside are all separated. The power supply forms a closed loop. When the external power source generates current, the cutting wire is located inside the pressure plate 43. When there is no current from the external power source, the cutting wire is not located inside the pressure plate 43, making it easy to determine whether the end of the cutting wire is inside the pressure plate 43. The second cylinder 25 drives the first connecting frame 24 to move, the first connecting frame 24 drives the first connecting seat 29 to move, the first connecting seat 29 drives the hollow support frame 22 to move, and the hollow support frame 22 drives the inner tube 215, the wire guide tube 211, and the reducing connector 218. The wire guide tube 211 separates from the pressure plate 43, and the restoring force of the torsion spring 45 drives the connecting seat 46 along the connecting shaft. 42 rotates, and the connecting shaft 42 drives the pressure plate 43 to rotate. The pressure plate 43 presses the end of the cutting wire onto the outer wall of the wear-resistant conductive sheet 44, fixing the end of the cutting wire onto the winding drum 35 of the winding assembly. Then the winding drum 35 continues to rotate three times, and the cutting wire rotates three times around the outer end of the pressure plate 43. The pressure plate 43 is pressed tightly by the three turns of the cutting wire, preventing the pressure plate 43 from opening when rotating, avoiding the phenomenon of the cutting wire end separating from the pressure plate 43. The cutting wire end is fixed, which facilitates the automatic loading and unloading of the cutting wire end, and can also detect whether the cutting wire end is located inside the pressure plate 43.

[0067] As the winding drum 35 continues to rotate three times, the first cylinder 23 drives the pressure roller 213 to move downward along the upper straight groove 214 until it contacts the cutting wire. The first motor 27 drives the drive wheel 217 to rotate. The drive wheel 217 and the pressure roller 213 work together to drive the cutting wire to move towards the winding drum 35. When the cutting wire is wrapped around the outside of the pressure plate 43, the tension of the pressure plate 43 on the cutting wire is reduced, which can prevent the pressure plate 43 from separating from the cutting wire due to the low pressure of the pressure plate 43 on the cutting wire when the pressure plate 43 rotates.

[0068] Example 2: Please refer to Figures 1-13 As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and to better achieve the objectives of the present invention, the present invention also provides a monitoring method for an automatic electrical discharge machining (EDM) wire feeding and take-up / unloading device, comprising the following steps:

[0069] Step 1: The rotation trajectory of the take-up and unwind assembly driving the elastic crimping assembly 4 is aligned with the wire feeding assembly 2. The adjustable linkage assembly and translation assembly are adjusted to the disconnected state. The take-up and unwind assembly rotates until there is no cutting wire on the outside of the elastic crimping assembly 4, and the outside of the elastic crimping assembly 4 is exposed.

[0070] Step 2: The wire feeding assembly 2 contacts the elastic crimping assembly 4 to unlock the elastic crimping assembly 4, and the cutting wire is pulled out from the elastic crimping assembly 4 until it is separated from the processed workpiece. Then, the workpiece to be processed is placed in the processing position, and the cutting machine tool pushes the end of the cutting wire into the elastic crimping assembly 4 through the wire feeding assembly 2.

[0071] Step 3: Determine if there is current in the external power source. If yes, the cutting wire, elastic crimping assembly 4, wire feeding assembly 2, and external power source form a closed loop, and proceed to step 5. If no, the elastic crimping assembly 4, wire feeding assembly 2, and external power source do not form a closed loop, and proceed to step 4.

[0072] Step 4: The cutting machine continues to push the cutting wire, repeating step 3;

[0073] Step 5: The winding end of the unwinding assembly continues to rotate three times, and the cutting wire rotates three times around the outer end of the elastic pressing assembly 4. Then, the adjustable linkage assembly and the translation assembly are adjusted to the linkage state to perform cutting.
