Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of material conveying technology, and in particular to an automatic inspection device for cable assemblies used in a multifunctional ultraviolet aging simulator. Background Technology

[0002] Ultraviolet (UV) aging test is a testing method that uses a UV light source to simulate the UV component of sunlight, irradiating samples to assess the aging rate of materials under UV light. This test method is mainly used to simulate the long-term exposure of materials to UV radiation in actual use, thereby evaluating the material's weather resistance and lifespan.

[0003] Current ultraviolet aging simulators use strong ultraviolet irradiation to test the aging degree of samples. However, traditional testing methods require manual placement of samples inside the simulator, which is inefficient. Furthermore, the internal irradiation position and range are limited, making adjustment operations during the aging test inconvenient. Additionally, the types of aging simulations are very fixed, and the internal safety and durability are not high. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is that the traditional detection method has low delivery efficiency, limited internal irradiation position and range, inconvenient adjustment operation, fixed types of simulated aging, and low internal safety and durability.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problem is: an automatic cable assembly inspection device for a multifunctional ultraviolet aging simulator, including a main frame, an upper reaction chamber fixedly installed on the upper surface of the main frame, electrically controlled translational conveyor belts movably mounted on both sides of the upper reaction chamber on the upper surface of the main frame, electrically controlled flipping material guiding components movably mounted on both sides of the lower end of the upper reaction chamber, ultraviolet aging lamps and infrared heating lamps staggeredly installed on the upper surface of the upper reaction chamber, upper and lower material inlets symmetrically opened on the lower ends of the two side walls of the upper reaction chamber, and electrically controlled reflective covers movably mounted on the inner walls of both sides of the upper reaction chamber.

[0006] The electrically controlled translational conveyor belt includes lateral assembly frames installed on both sides of the upper surface of the main frame and an electrically controlled conveyor belt movably installed within the lateral assembly frames.

[0007] The electrically controlled tilting material guiding assembly includes an internal material guiding frame movably mounted on the lower end of the upper reaction chamber, a lateral electrically controlled conveyor belt movably mounted on the bottom surface of the internal material guiding frame, a lateral extrusion frame slidably mounted on the inner side of the internal material guiding frame, and an electromagnet and an iron spring fixed inside the internal material guiding frame.

[0008] An external flow guide is fixedly installed on the inner top surface of the upper reaction chamber, around the infrared heating lamp.

[0009] The upper reaction chamber has symmetrically arranged bottom straight guide openings and side arc-shaped guide openings on the inner walls of both sides.

[0010] The internal guide frame is inserted into the bottom straight guide port and the side arc-shaped guide port through the guide shafts on both sides and is movably assembled with the upper reaction chamber.

[0011] The outer walls on both sides of the upper reaction chamber are fixedly equipped with external translation guide rails located outside the bottom straight guide opening, and the outer walls on both sides of the upper reaction chamber are fixedly equipped with external closed covers located outside the lateral arc-shaped guide opening.

[0012] The external translation guide rail is internally equipped with a bottom-mounted electric control screw for controlling the translation of one end of the internal guide frame, and the external closed cover is internally equipped with a top-mounted adjusting support rod for controlling the flipping and lifting of the other end of the internal guide frame.

[0013] The electrically controlled reflective cover includes a flip-close cover hinged to the upper and lower feed inlet openings and a built-in adjusting support rod for controlling the flip-close cover.

[0014] The main frame has a bottom reflux chamber fixedly installed at the lower opening of the upper reaction chamber. The top of the upper reaction chamber is fixedly equipped with a top guide fan that is connected to the external guide shroud. The bottom reflux chamber has a plurality of modular reaction chambers on its bottom surface. The side wall of the bottom reflux chamber is fixedly connected to the top guide fan through an external guide pipe.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0016] (1) The automatic cable assembly feeding device for a multifunctional ultraviolet aging simulator of the present invention controls the sample loading and unloading operation by adopting an automatic conveying method, which greatly improves the conveying efficiency.

[0017] (2) By movably assembling electrically controlled reflective covers at the upper and lower material inlets on both sides of the upper reaction chamber, the upper and lower material inlets can not only be closed and adjusted, but also the safety of the aging process can be improved.

[0018] (3) By adjusting the angle of the electronically controlled reflective cover, the illumination angle of the ultraviolet aging lamp and the infrared heating lamp can be adjusted, resulting in a more diverse irradiation range and greater operability.

[0019] (4) By movably assembling the electrically controlled flipping material guiding components on both sides of the lower end of the upper reaction chamber, and in conjunction with the electrically controlled translational conveyor belt, the sample can be guided and flipped, greatly improving the material conveying and adjustment efficiency.

[0020] (5) By assembling an external flow guide around the infrared heating lamp and using an electronically controlled flow guide design, not only can the durability of the aging test equipment be improved, but the influence of the external environment on the sample can also be simulated, making the detection methods more diverse.

[0021] (6) The opening and closing of the upper and lower feed ports can be controlled by the electronically controlled reflective cover, which improves the airtightness of the upper reaction chamber in the idle state and enhances the safety and durability of the equipment.

[0026] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the invention.

[0027] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0028] Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The illustrated automatic cable assembly inspection device for a multifunctional ultraviolet aging simulator includes a main frame 1. An upper reaction chamber 2 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the main frame 1. Electrically controlled translational conveyor belts 3 are movably mounted on both sides of the upper surface of the main frame 1 located on both sides of the upper reaction chamber 2. Electrically controlled tilting guide components 4 are movably mounted on both sides of the lower end inside the upper reaction chamber 2. Ultraviolet aging lamps 5 and infrared heating lamps 6 are installed at different positions on the top surface inside the upper reaction chamber 2. Upper and lower material inlets are symmetrically opened at the lower ends of the two side walls of the upper reaction chamber 2. Electrically controlled reflective covers 7 are movably mounted on the inner walls of both sides of the upper reaction chamber 2.

[0029] Working principle: The sample is placed on the electrically controlled translational conveyor belt 3. The electrically controlled translational conveyor belt 3 controls the sample to be transported to the upper reaction chamber 2. When the sample is moved to the position of the upper reaction chamber 2, the infrared monitoring module at the upper reaction chamber 2 detects the sample and controls the electrically controlled reflective cover 7 of the upper and lower reaction chambers to flip upward and adhere to the inner wall of the upper reaction chamber 2. Then the sample is introduced into the electrically controlled flipping guide assembly 4. The electrically controlled flipping guide assembly 4 flips to form a vertical state. Then the ultraviolet aging lamp 5 or infrared heating lamp 6 is activated. Then the electrically controlled reflective cover 7 flips downward to form reflective slopes at the lower ends of both sides of the sample, which reflect the light generated by the ultraviolet aging lamp 5 or infrared heating lamp 6, improving the reflection effect. Then the electrically controlled reflective cover 7 flips upward. After the electrically controlled flipping guide assembly 4 flips and resets, it is kept horizontal with the electrically controlled translational conveyor belt 3. Then the sample is transported outward through the electrically controlled translational conveyor belt 3.

[0030] To facilitate electrically controlled translational conveying, the electrically controlled translational conveyor belt 3 includes lateral assembly frames 31 mounted on both sides of the upper surface of the main frame 1 and an electrically controlled conveying belt 32 movably mounted within the lateral assembly frames 31.

[0031] The electrically controlled conveyor belt 32 is used to control the sample to enter the upper reaction chamber 2 and to drive the sample out of the upper reaction chamber 2.

[0032] To facilitate magnetic control adjustment, the electrically controlled tilting feed assembly 4 includes an internal feed frame 41 movably mounted on the lower end of the upper reaction chamber 2, a lateral electrically controlled conveyor belt 42 movably mounted on the bottom surface of the internal feed frame 41, a lateral extrusion frame 43 slidably mounted on the inner side of the internal feed frame 41, an electromagnet 44 fixed to the inner side of the internal feed frame 41, and an iron spring 45.

[0033] The electromagnet 44 controls the extension and retraction of the iron spring 45 by activation, and the iron spring 45 controls the sliding adjustment of the lateral extrusion frame 43, which clamps the sample from the top.

[0034] The electrically controlled translational conveyor belt 3 drives the sample to translate and adjust, and inserts the sample into the inner guide frame 41. The lateral electrically controlled conveyor belt 42 drives the sample to translate within the inner guide frame 41. The lateral extrusion frame 43 clamps and fixes the sample. Then, the inner guide frame 41 is controlled to adjust from a horizontal to a vertical state. Then, the electrically controlled reflective cover 7 flips inward. Then, the ultraviolet aging lamp 5 or infrared heating lamp 6 emits light, which passes through the internal reflective layer and is emitted on both sides of the sample via the electrically controlled reflective cover 7 to perform ultraviolet or high aging tests on the sample.

[0035] To facilitate lateral flow guidance, an external flow guide shroud 8 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the upper reaction chamber 2, around the infrared heating lamp 6.

[0036] After the infrared heating lamp 6 is turned on, in order to avoid the accumulation of top temperature, the flowing air inside the external guide shroud 8 blows the heat of the infrared heating lamp 6 downward, thereby avoiding the impact of high temperature on the ultraviolet aging lamp 5 and the infrared heating lamp 6, and improving the durability of the equipment.

[0037] To facilitate assembly and guidance adjustment, the inner walls on both sides of the upper reaction chamber 2 are symmetrically provided with bottom straight guide ports 9 and side arc-shaped guide ports 10.

[0038] To facilitate assembly and adjustment, the internal guide frame 41 is inserted into the bottom straight guide port 9 and the side arc-shaped guide port 10 via guide shafts on both sides, and is movably assembled with the upper reaction chamber 2.

[0039] In order to accommodate the externally mounted translational guide rails 11 fixedly installed on the outer walls of the upper reaction chamber 2 at the bottom straight guide opening 9, and the externally mounted closed cover 12 fixedly installed on the outer walls of the upper reaction chamber 2 at the side arc-shaped guide opening 10.

[0040] In order to facilitate the angle adjustment of the internal guide frame 41, the external translation guide rail 11 is internally equipped with a bottom-mounted electric control screw 13 for controlling the translation of one end of the internal guide frame 41, and the external closed cover 12 is internally equipped with a top-mounted adjusting support rod 14 for controlling the flipping and lifting of the other end of the internal guide frame 41.

[0041] The guide shafts on both sides of one end of the internal guide frame 41 are movably fitted with internal thread blocks that are threaded to the bottom electric control screw 13. The guide shafts on both sides of the other end of the internal guide frame 41 are movably fitted with adjustment blocks that are connected to the extended end of the top adjusting support rod 14.

[0042] The bottom-mounted electric control screw 13 controls one side of the internal guide frame 41 to move and adjust by rotation, while the top-mounted adjustment success 14 controls the other end of the internal guide frame 41 to flip by extension and retraction, thereby changing the angle and height of the internal guide frame 41.

[0043] To accommodate angle adjustment, the electrically controlled reflective cover 7 includes a flip-close cover 71 hinged to the openings of the upper and lower feed ports and a built-in adjusting support rod 72 for controlling the flip-close cover 71.

[0044] The built-in adjustable support rod 72 controls the angle adjustment of the flip-closed cover 71 by telescopic extension, thereby closing the upper and lower material inlets on both sides of the upper reaction chamber 2.

[0045] The sample is moved by the electrically controlled translational conveyor belt 3 and introduced into the internal guide frame 41 from the feeding port of the upper reaction chamber 2. After the sample is fixed inside the internal guide frame 41, the bottom-mounted electric control screw 13 rotates to move one end of the feeding port of the internal guide frame 41 to the lower end of the feeding port. At the same time, the top-mounted adjusting support rod 14 extends and retracts to flip one end of the lower end of the internal guide frame 41 upward, finally flipping the internal guide frame 41 to a vertical position. At this time, the ultraviolet aging lamp 5 and the infrared heating lamp 6 emit light from the top. The ultraviolet aging lamp 5 emits an ultraviolet beam, and the infrared heating lamp 6 emits an infrared beam. The light is then reflected to both sides of the sample through the reflective surfaces on the inner wall of the upper reaction chamber 2 and the flip-closed cover 71. The reflection angle and range are adjusted by changing the angle of the flip-closed cover 71.

[0046] To improve the flow guidance method and enhance the simulation types, a bottom return chamber 15 is fixedly installed inside the main frame 1 at the lower opening of the upper reaction chamber 2. A top flow guide fan 16 connected to the external flow guide shroud 8 is fixedly installed on the top of the upper reaction chamber 2. A plurality of modular reaction chambers 17 are set on the bottom surface inside the bottom return chamber 15. The side wall of the bottom return chamber 15 is fixedly connected to the top flow guide fan 16 through an external flow guide pipe 18.

[0047] The modular reaction chamber 17 can be a water vaporizer, which evaporates internal moisture to form water vapor through bottom heating. The water vapor is then injected into the upper reaction chamber 2 through the external guide pipe 18 by the top guide fan 16, so that the sample surface is subjected to high-temperature steam contact, thereby simulating the aging degree of the sample under high temperature and high humidity environment. The modular reaction chamber 17 can also be a sand and gravel box, which generates dust and sand inside through the high-speed agitator at the bottom. The dust and sand are then injected into the upper reaction chamber 2 through the external guide pipe 18 by the top guide fan 16, so that the sample surface is impacted, simulating the aging degree of the sample under wind and sand environment.

[0048] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of the present invention, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the inventive concept. The technical scope of this invention is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
