Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of laser wire stripping technology, and more particularly to a laser wire stripping device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, laser stripping of cables of various varieties and in small batches uses single-wire laser stripping, while large-scale production uses continuous automatic cutting and stripping. The advantage of continuous laser cutting and stripping is its suitability for large-scale wire stripping production and high processing efficiency for short wires. However, for applications requiring frequent switching between different diameters, short wires requiring double-ended stripping, stripping the stranded ends of wire-stripping connectors, and laser stripping of multi-ended cables, this type of equipment is inefficient, lacks flexibility, and the core wires are prone to deformation during handling, affecting subsequent production.

[0003] For the purpose of stripping 1-10 such cables each time, using an automatic continuous method is wasteful of wires and not flexible. In practice, laser stripping is performed by hand when stripping such cables. This operation method has certain safety hazards. At the same time, because the stripping is done by hand, the stripping accuracy is low and the labor intensity of the operator is high.

[0004] Therefore, existing laser wire stripping devices suffer from technical problems such as low wire stripping accuracy and high labor intensity for operators. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention provides a laser wire stripping device that solves the technical problems of low wire stripping accuracy and high labor intensity of operators in the prior art.

[0009] A wire stripper is provided on the machine body, and the worktable is provided with a sensor to detect whether there is a cable to be stripped on the worktable;

[0010] The workbench is equipped with a clamping assembly for holding the cable to be stripped. The clamping assembly includes a base assembly mounted on the workbench and a clamping assembly mounted on the base assembly. The base assembly includes a base plate fixed to the workbench. The base plate is provided with positioning blocks. There are two positioning blocks, and a clamping cavity for positioning the clamping assembly is formed between the two positioning blocks. The clamping assembly is disposed in the clamping cavity.

[0011] The clamping assembly includes a base, the base being provided with a positioning plate for positioning the head of the cable to be stripped, and the base also being provided with a clamping seat for clamping the cable to be stripped, and an elastic clamping block being provided on the side of the clamping seat that contacts the cable to be stripped.

[0012] The clamp is rotatably connected to the base, and the base is also provided with a locking mechanism for locking the clamp.

[0013] Preferably, the base is provided with a rotating shaft, one end of the clamp is rotatably connected to the base through the rotating shaft, the locking mechanism is provided at the end of the clamp away from the rotating shaft, and all cables to be stripped are located between the rotating shaft and the locking mechanism.

[0014] Preferably, the end of the clamp away from the base is provided with a handle for facilitating rotation of the clamp, and the handle protrudes from the clamp away from the pivot.

[0015] Preferably, the locking mechanism includes a positioning pin disposed on the base, and the clamp is provided with a pin hole that cooperates with the positioning pin.

[0016] Preferably, an elastic element is provided between the positioning pin and the base to push the positioning pin so that the positioning pin engages with the pin hole.

[0017] Preferably, the elastic element is a spring, one end of which is fixed to the positioning pin, and the other end of which is fixed to the base.

[0018] Preferably, the clamp includes a crossbeam spanning all the cables to be stripped, the elastic clamp is disposed on the crossbeam, the base is provided with a pivot, the crossbeam is rotatably connected to the pivot via a connecting rod, the connecting rod is provided with a strip groove, the pivot is located in the strip groove, and the crossbeam slides relative to the base along the length direction of the strip groove so that at least a portion of the head of the cable to be stripped abuts against the positioning plate.

[0019] Preferably, the locking mechanism includes a slider slidably connected to the base, and a second elastic element is provided between the slider and the base to push the slider to displace the clamp along the length direction of the strip groove. The slider is provided with a guide block, and the base is provided with a guide groove that cooperates with the guide block.

[0020] Preferably, the slider is provided with an arc-shaped locking groove, a portion of the crossbeam extends into the arc-shaped locking groove to lock the clamp, and a protrusion is also provided between the base and the connecting rod to prevent the clamp from rotating when the clamp locks the cable to be stripped, the protrusion and the base are an integral structure.

[0021] Preferably, the positioning block is fixed to the base plate by bolts, and the positioning block is provided with a groove through which the bolts pass, and the groove is elongated.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0023] Through components such as the positioning plate and elastic clamping blocks in the clamping assembly, the clamping assembly can accurately position and clamp the cable, reducing stripping errors caused by cable misalignment and improper clamping force, thereby improving stripping accuracy. The design of the clamping assembly makes cable placement and clamping more convenient and faster, eliminating the need for operators to spend a lot of time and effort adjusting the cable position and clamping force, thus reducing labor intensity.

[0024] The rotatable design and locking mechanism of the clamp allow the device to adapt to cables of different diameters and stripping requirements, such as double-ended stripping and multi-ended cable fabrication. This flexibility gives the device a greater advantage in multi-variety, small-batch production, enabling it to meet the personalized needs of different customers.

[0025] This solution is particularly suitable for various working conditions such as wire stripping connectors, multi-head cables, and loose wires; moreover, switching between wires of different diameters is relatively simple, and the skill requirements for operators using the equipment are not high. It is often used in wire stripping scenarios with small batches and frequent switching of multiple specifications. Attached Figure Description

The specific embodiments include particular details intended to provide a thorough understanding of the subject matter of the invention. However, it will be clear and apparent to those skilled in the art that the subject matter of the invention is not limited to the specific details shown herein and can be practiced without these specific details.

[0041] Understandably, in this document, relational terms such as “first” and “second” are intended to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and are not intended to expressly or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations.

[0042] The terms “comprising,” “including,” or any other variations thereof are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase “comprising one…” does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.

[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a laser wire stripping device includes a body 1;

[0044] Workbench 2, which is disposed on the machine body 1;

[0045] The wire stripper 3 is disposed on the machine body 1, and the workbench 2 is provided with a sensor to detect whether there is a cable to be stripped on the workbench 2;

[0046] The workbench 2 is provided with a clamping assembly 4 for clamping the cable to be stripped. The clamping assembly 4 includes a base assembly 5 installed on the workbench 2 and a clamping assembly 6 installed on the base assembly 5. The base assembly 5 includes a base plate 51 fixed to the workbench 2. The base plate 51 is provided with positioning blocks 52. There are two positioning blocks 52, and a clamping cavity for positioning the clamping assembly 6 is formed between the two positioning blocks 52. The clamping assembly 6 is disposed in the clamping cavity.

[0047] The clamping assembly 6 includes a base 61, the base 61 is provided with a positioning plate 62 for positioning the head of the cable to be stripped, the base 61 is also provided with a clamping seat 63 for clamping the cable to be stripped, and an elastic clamping block 631 is provided on the side of the clamping seat 63 that contacts the cable to be stripped.

[0048] The clamp 63 is rotatably connected to the base 61, and the base 61 is also provided with a locking mechanism for locking the clamp 63.

[0049] Understandably, the machine body 1 is also equipped with a control system for controlling the wire stripper 3, and the sensor communicates with the control system. When the sensor detects that there is a cable to be stripped on the workbench 2, the controller delays for a certain period of time before controlling the wire stripper 3 to perform the stripping operation, thereby improving the safety performance of the wire stripper 3.

[0050] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first structure of the clamping assembly is as follows: In some embodiments, the base 61 is provided with a rotating shaft 611, one end of the clamp 63 is rotatably connected to the base 61 via the rotating shaft 611, the locking mechanism is provided at the end of the clamp 63 away from the rotating shaft 611, and all cables to be stripped are located between the rotating shaft 611 and the locking mechanism.

[0051] A rolling bearing can be installed between the rotating vehicle and the clamp 63 to reduce the wear of the rotating shaft 611 and the clamp 63.

[0052] In some embodiments, the end of the clamp 63 away from the base 61 is provided with a handle 632 for facilitating rotation of the clamp 63, and the handle 632 protrudes from the clamp 63 in a direction away from the pivot 611.

[0053] The handle 632 may be fitted with a rubber sleeve to optimize its operation. The handle 632 and the clamp 63 may be a single integrated structure.

[0054] In some embodiments, the locking mechanism includes a positioning pin 612 disposed on the base 61, and the clamp 63 is provided with a pin hole that cooperates with the positioning pin 612.

[0055] In some embodiments, an elastic element is provided between the positioning pin 612 and the base 61 to push the positioning pin 612 so that the positioning pin 612 engages with the pin hole.

[0056] In some embodiments, the elastic element is a spring, one end of which is fixed to the locating pin 612, and the other end of which is fixed to the base 61. Overcoming the elastic force of the elastic element allows the locating pin 612 to easily disengage from the pin hole.

[0057] Specifically, when the cables do not need to be clamped, place one to ten cables on the base 61, ensuring that the ends of the cables contact the positioning plate 62, so that the ends of all cables are on the same plane. Then, rotate the clamp 63 to clamp the cables on the base 61. The elastic clamp 631 contacts the cables, which can accommodate cables of different diameters and also prevents the clamp 63 from damaging the cables.

[0058] After clamp 63 rotates into position, all cables are clamped. At this point, the locking pin aligns with the pin hole, and under the action of the elastic element, the locking pin engages with the pin hole to lock clamp 63. Now, clamping assembly 6 is installed in the clamping cavity. After the sensor detects the cable, the control system delays for a certain period of time before controlling wire stripper 3 to complete wire stripping.

[0059] Understandably, the elastic clamp 631 can be made of a rubber block or similar material.

[0060] Reference Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the second structure of the clamping assembly is as follows: In practice, during the rotation of the clamping seat 63, the cable closer to the direction of the rotating shaft 611 is clamped first by the elastic clamping block 631. The cable away from the direction of the rotating shaft 611 may undergo a certain displacement during the clamping process, that is, the rotating shaft 611 is located on one side of the cable, and the clamping seat 63 clamps the cable from one side of the cable. In order to clamp all cables at the same time, in some embodiments, the clamping seat 63 includes a crossbeam 633 spanning all the cables to be stripped. The elastic clamping block 631 is disposed on the crossbeam 633. The base 61 is provided with the rotating shaft 611. The crossbeam 633 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 611 through a connecting rod 6331. The connecting rod 6331 is provided with a strip groove 6332. The rotating shaft 611 is located in the strip groove 6332. The crossbeam 633 slides relative to the base 61 along the length direction of the strip groove 6332 so that at least a portion of the head of the cable to be stripped abuts against the positioning plate 62.

[0061] In this design, the pivot 611 is located at the front end of all cables, that is, the positioning plate 62 is located between the head of the cable and the pivot 611. When clamping the cable, the elastic clamping block 631 set on the crossbeam 633 clamps the cable at the same time, which effectively avoids some cable misalignment and makes the cable easier to clamp.

[0062] In some embodiments, the locking mechanism includes a slider 613 slidably connected to the base 61, and a second elastic element 614 is provided between the slider 613 and the base 61 to push the slider 613 to push the clamp 63 to move along the length direction of the strip groove 6332. The slider 613 is provided with a guide block 615, and the base 61 is provided with a guide groove that cooperates with the guide block 615.

[0063] In some embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the guide block 615 is polygonal, and the guide block 615 and the slider 613 are an integral structure.

[0064] In some embodiments, the slider 613 is provided with an arc-shaped locking groove, a portion of the crossbeam 633 extends into the arc-shaped locking groove to lock the clamp 63, and a protrusion 616 is also provided between the base 61 and the connecting rod 6331 to prevent the clamp 63 from rotating when the clamp 63 locks the cable to be stripped, and the protrusion 616 and the base 61 are an integral structure.

[0065] Specifically, when clamping the cables, first place all the cables on the base 61 and make the head of the cable contact the positioning plate 62. Pull the clamp 63 so that the rotating shaft 611 is located at the first end of the strip groove 6332. Then rotate the clamp 63 to clamp all the cables. When the clamp 63 is rotated to its horizontal position, the second elastic element 614 needs to overcome the elastic force of the clamp 63 during rotation to make the slider 613 slide a certain distance. When the clamp 63 is in the horizontal position, the second elastic element 614 pushes the slider 613 to move in the opposite direction. The slider 613 pushes the clamp 63 to move, which in turn causes the clamp 63 to move the cables that are not in contact with the positioning plate 62, so that the heads of all cables are in contact with the positioning plate 62. A part of the crossbeam 633 is located in the arc-shaped locking groove to prevent the clamp 63 from malfunctioning. At the same time, the slider 613 pushes the clamp 63 to make the rotating shaft 611 located at the second end of the strip groove 6332. At this time, the protrusion 616 is in contact with the connecting rod 6331. The protrusion 616 can also prevent the clamp 63 from malfunctioning.

[0066] When removing the cable, pull the clamp 63 horizontally against the force of the second elastic element 614, so that the rotating shaft 611 is located at the first end of the strip groove 6332, and at the same time the connecting rod 6331 is displaced from the protrusion 616. Then rotate the clamp 63 in the opposite direction to remove the cable.

[0067] In some embodiments, the positioning block 52 is fixed to the base plate 51 by bolts 53, and the positioning block 52 is provided to allow the bolts 53 to pass through a groove, which is elongated.

Those skilled in the art can freely combine and implement the above embodiments according to their needs to obtain a better application experience.
