[0038] In the following description, "left", "right", "front", "back", "up" and "down" are oriented in the perspective of the front view.
[0039] In some embodiments, please refer to the drawings of the specification Figures 1-11The utility model provides an electrode wire conveying device with tension adjusting function, which comprises a frame 1;
[0040] A wire tension control mechanism 4 is mounted on the left side of the upper end of the frame 1, and a three-axis combined module 2 is fixedly mounted on the right side of the upper end of the frame 1; a plurality of guide wheels 3 are vertically mounted on the moving end of the three-axis combined module 2; two self-control conductive mechanisms 5 are provided, one of which is mounted on the upper end of the frame 1 and located between the guide wheels 3, and the other is mounted on the lower end of the frame 1; the two self-control conductive mechanisms 5 are matched to transmit and process current for the electrode wire;
[0041] The self-control conductive mechanism 5 comprises a conductive assembly, a rotating propulsion assembly, a conductive block 58 and a connecting block 59; the conductive assembly is fixedly connected with the moving end of the three-axis combined module 2 or the frame 1; the rotating propulsion assembly is mounted on the conductive assembly; the connecting block 59 is fixedly mounted on the moving end of the rotating propulsion assembly; and the connecting block 59 is detachably connected with the conductive block 58 through a connecting piece.
[0042] In the utility model, when the contact part of the conductive block 58 and the electrode wire is worn, the conductive block 58 is rotated and propelled to automatically change the surface of the conductive block 58 without stopping the machine; and the conductive block 58 is axially displaced by a certain distance during each surface changing operation, so that when the contact surface of the conductive block 58 and the electrode wire returns to the initial contact surface, the contact part of the electrode wire and the conductive block 58 has a certain interval from the last contact part, which satisfies the maximum utilization of the conductive block 58, solves the problems of complicated surface changing of the conductive block 58 and low utilization efficiency of the conductive block 58, and further improves the processing efficiency of wire cutting and the service life of the conductive block 58.
[0043] Please refer to Figures 4-6 The conductive assembly comprises a mounting seat 51, an electrode rod 52 and mounting nuts 53; the mounting seat 51 is fixedly connected with the moving end of the three-axis combined module 2 or the frame 1; a hole through which the electrode rod 52 passes is formed in the mounting seat 51; the two mounting nuts 53 are threadedly connected with the electrode rod 52 and are distributed on the two sides of the mounting seat 51; the two mounting nuts 53 cooperate to tightly fix the electrode rod 52; and an insulating column is arranged between the electrode rod 52 and the mounting seat 51.
[0044] The rotating propulsion assembly comprises a lead screw 54, an adjusting block 55, a connecting plate 56 and a mini push cylinder 57; the end of the lead screw 54 is fixedly connected with the electrode rod 52; the adjusting block 55 is threadedly connected with the lead screw 54; a through hole for avoiding the lead screw 54 is formed in the connecting plate 56; the connecting plate 56 is rotationally connected with the adjusting block 55 through a bearing; the mini push cylinder 57 is fixedly connected with the mounting seat 51; the output end of the mini push cylinder 57 is fixedly connected with the connecting plate 56; and the adjusting block 55 is fixedly connected with the connecting block 59.
[0045] In the present application, when the contact position of the conductive block 58 with the electrode wire is worn, the extension and retraction of the piston of the mini push cylinder 57 is controlled, so that the mini push cylinder 57 can drive the axial displacement along the screw rod 54 through the connecting plate 56, and at the same time, the adjusting block 55 rotates around the screw rod 54, so that the automatic surface replacement of the conductive block 58 can be completed without stopping. Each time the surface replacement operation is performed, the connecting plate 56 drives the axial displacement along the screw rod 54 by a certain distance, so that when the contact surface of the conductive block 58 turns back to the initial contact surface, the contact position of the electrode wire with the conductive block 58 has a certain distance from the last contact position of the electrode wire with the conductive block 58, which meets the maximum utilization of the conductive block 58, solves the problems of complicated surface replacement of the conductive block 58 and low utilization efficiency of the conductive block 58, and further improves the processing efficiency of the wire cutting and the service life of the conductive block 58.
[0046] In the present embodiment, the screw rod 54 adopts a ball screw, so that the adjusting block 55 can smoothly rotate on the screw rod 54.
[0047] In the present embodiment, the fastener adopts a fastening bolt or a clamping block structure, etc. After the conductive block 58 is completely worn, the fastening bolt is screwed into the connecting block 59 through the conductive block 58, or the clamping block structure is clamped into the hole of the conductive block 58, so that the conductive block 58 can be replaced conveniently and quickly.
[0048] In the present embodiment, the conductive block 58 is a regular polygonal prism, and each side surface of the conductive block 58 is arranged in an arc shape, which can reduce the friction between the side surface of the conductive block 58 and the electrode wire when the conductive block 58 rotates, and when the conductive block 58 works, the electrode wire can stably contact the side surface of the conductive block 58.

[0050] In the present embodiment, the length and the pitch of the screw rod 54 depend on the shape and the length of the conductive block 58. The axial movement distance of the conductive block 58 also depends on the utilization efficiency requirement of the conductive block 58; for example, the pitch of the thread on the screw rod 54 is one millimeter, the conductive block 58 is a quadrangular prism, the prism height is ten millimeters, the adjusting block 55 rotates by ninety degrees each time, the conductive block 58 performs surface replacement once, and the conductive block 58 moves axially by zero point two five millimeters, when the conductive block 58 rotates one round, the conductive block 58 moves axially by one millimeter relative to the sleeve rack 1, the contact surface of the conductive block 58 turns back to the initial contact surface, and at this time, the axial length between the second scratch and the first scratch on the initial contact surface is one millimeter, and so on. One contact surface of the conductive block 58 can be operated ten times, which realizes the maximum utilization of the conductive block 58.
[0051] Please refer to Figure 3 The wire tension control mechanism 4 comprises fixed wheels 41, a movable wheel 42, a slide rod 43, a vertical moving push cylinder 44, a stop block 45, a vertical moving block 46 and a pressure sensor 47, a plurality of fixed wheels 41 are rotatably installed on the rack 1, the slide rod 43 is fixedly connected with the rack 1, the stop block 45 and the vertical moving block 46 are both limitingly and slidably connected with the slide rod 43, and the stop block 45 is located on the upper side of the vertical moving block 46, and the pressure sensor 47 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the vertical moving block 46; the vertical moving push cylinder 44 is fixedly connected with the rack 1, and the output end of the vertical moving push cylinder 44 is fixedly connected with the stop block 45; the movable wheel 42 is rotatably installed on the vertical moving block 46;

[0053] In the traditional way, the start and stop points of the electrode wire passing and dismounting position are usually determined according to the set distance and fixed position, but the electrode wire itself has stress, and the electrode wire will also cause errors in length due to wear with use time, so that it needs to be continuously adjusted, and in the present application, the position of the stop block 45 can be controlled by monitoring the size of the tensioning force by the pressure sensor 47, the control of the upward stroke of the vertical moving block 46 is realized, and the downward movement of the vertical moving block 46 is given, so as to realize the real-time control of the tensioning force of the electrode wire, and the continuous adjustment of the electrode wire tension in use can be effectively solved by adjusting the software algorithm.
[0054] In the online cutting operation, if the conductive block 58 is worn, the tension of the electrode wire is easy to be unstable, causing the vertical moving block 46 to have the tendency of up and down swing, so if the pressure sensor 47 has unstable reading in a certain time, the mini push cylinder 57 is controlled to push the adjusting block 55 to move, so that the conductive block 58 automatically changes the surface, and then if the pressure sensor 47 still has unstable reading, an alarm signal is sent to the central control of the equipment.
