Description
Technical Field

[0002] In cable stripping operations for power distribution networks, the most common techniques used are handheld cable strippers and manual insulated rod cable strippers. These methods are complex to install, time-consuming, and require close manual operation during live-line work, posing significant safety hazards. Furthermore, the use of insulated bucket trucks is limited by site constraints, resulting in poor versatility. In addition, the cable stripping effect of this method is unsatisfactory. The operation requires manual measurement of the cable diameter to estimate the insulation thickness and adjust the stripping depth accordingly. During the stripping process, visual observation is necessary to adjust the cutting depth of the stripping blade to avoid incomplete insulation removal or damage to the conductor due to excessive cutting depth.

[0054] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0055] See Figures 1 to 7 As shown, an embodiment of the first aspect of this application discloses a cable stripping device, including a locking mechanism 100 and a stripping mechanism 200;
[0056] The locking mechanism 100 is used to lock or release the cable; the stripping mechanism 200 includes a drive assembly 210 and a stripping assembly 220. The drive assembly 210 is used to cause the stripping assembly 220 to move relative to the locking mechanism 100, and the stripping assembly 220 is used to cut the insulation layer to complete the stripping action.
[0057] In the embodiments of this application, the cable is locked by the locking mechanism 100 as a fixed base, driven by the driving component 210, and the stripping component 220 cuts the insulation layer, thereby efficiently and automatically removing the cable insulation layer to strip it. This device can be used with drones and attached to the cable, and no power outage is required for operation. Safety is ensured through remote control.
[0058] Understandably, in some embodiments, when the cable stripping device is positioned at the location to be stripped in the cable, the cable is first locked by the locking mechanism 100 as a fixed base. Then, the stripping component 220 cuts the insulation layer on the cable. Simultaneously, driven by the drive component 210, the stripping component 220 completes the preset stroke of cutting the insulation layer, thus completing the stripping action. Furthermore, this device can be used in conjunction with a control device. After the cable stripping device is in place, automatic stripping can be achieved by controlling the drive component 210 and the stripping component 220 using the control device, eliminating the need for power outages and ensuring safety.
[0059] The following will combine Figures 1 to 7 The cable stripping device disclosed in the embodiments of this application will be explained and described in detail.
[0060] It should be understood that in order to make the overall structure of this cable stripping device more compact and the transmission method more reasonable, so as to make the stripping operation more accurate and efficient, the structural design of the drive component 210 is the key to achieving the above functions.
[0061] In this regard, in some embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figures 2 to 4The drive assembly 210 includes a first drive member 211, a gear ring component 212, and a planetary gear component 213; the gear ring component 212 is connected to the locking mechanism 100, and the planetary gear component 213 is connected to the stripping assembly 220, with the gear ring component 212 and the planetary gear component 213 meshing together; when the locking mechanism 100 locks the cable, the first drive member 211 drives the planetary gear component 213 to rotate, thereby driving the stripping assembly 220 to rotate; the stripping assembly 220 includes a blade component 221 and a stripping jaw component 222, the blade component 221 cutting the insulation layer by rotating circumferentially around the cable; the stripping jaw component 222 includes a first stripping jaw 221. The first stripping jaw 2221 and the second stripping jaw 2222 can open and close relative to each other to clamp or release the cable. The first stripping jaw 2221 and the second stripping jaw 2222 are respectively provided with stripping oblique teeth 2223 so that when clamping the cable, the stripping oblique teeth 2223 contact the cable. The stripping oblique teeth 2223 are used to convert part of the power generated when the stripping assembly 220 rotates into the power to drive the stripping assembly 220 to move when in contact with the cable, so that the blade component 221 moves synchronously along the axial direction of the cable and approaches the locking mechanism 100 when rotating, so as to complete the stripping action of the preset cutting stroke.
[0062] It is understandable that power is transmitted through the arrangement of the first driving component 211, the gear ring component 212, and the planetary gear meshing component. After the locking mechanism 100 fixes the cable, the planetary gear component 213 drives the stripping component 220 to rotate; the blade component 221 rotates circumferentially to cut the insulation layer, while the stripping helical teeth 2223 of the stripping gripper component 222 converts the rotational power into axial movement force, realizing the synchronous action of "rotational cutting + axial feed". It should be noted that through the linkage of the mechanical structure, combined with the design of the helical teeth, precise stripping is ensured within the preset cutting stroke, improving the efficiency and automation of cable stripping.
[0063] In some embodiments, the peeling oblique tooth portion 2223 is configured as a protruding structure with a certain tilt angle. On the one hand, the force is decomposed based on the tilted structural design, which can convert part of the rotational power into the power of linear movement along the cable when contacting the cable. On the other hand, it can reduce the frictional force generated during rotational contact, thereby ensuring power efficiency.
[0064] Exemplary, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 and Figure 4The gear ring component 212 includes a gear ring body 2121, and the planetary gear component 213 includes a planetary gear carrier 2131, a driving gear 2132, a transmission gear 2133, and a driven gear 2134. The gear ring body 2121 has a through hole for a cable to pass through and an opening 2122 for a cable to be inserted. The opening 2122 is formed on the edge of the gear ring body 2121 and communicates with the through hole. The driving gear 2132, the transmission gear 2133, and the driven gear 2134 are respectively disposed on the planetary gear carrier 2131. The first driving member 211 is used to drive the driving gear 2132, and the driving gear 2132 is meshed with the gear ring body 2121 through the transmission gear 2133. The driven gear 2134 is meshed with the gear ring body 2121 and is spaced apart from the transmission gear 2133. The driven gear 2134 is used to connect with the stripping assembly 220.
[0065] Understandably, the through hole in the gear ring body 2121 allows the cable to pass through, and the opening 2122 facilitates quick cable insertion. The planetary gear bracket 2131 integrates multiple gears. The first driving component 211 drives the driving gear 2132, which meshes with the gear ring body 2121 via the transmission gear 2133. Power is then transmitted to the stripping assembly 220 through the spaced driven gears 2134, forming a stable meshing transmission chain. The opening 2122 design improves positioning efficiency, and the coordinated meshing of multiple gears ensures smooth and error-free power transmission, guaranteeing the precise rotation trajectory of the stripping assembly 220. This avoids transmission jamming that could affect the stripping effect and allows for rapid operation of cables of different specifications, ensuring the stability and convenience of the stripping process.
[0066] In some embodiments, the through hole is formed at the center of the toothed ring body 2121, thereby making the layout of the various structures of the device more reasonable. After the cable enters through the opening 2122 and reaches the through hole, the locking mechanism 100 can lock the cable, and the stripping assembly 220 can also cut the insulation layer of the cable.
[0067] In some embodiments, the gear ring component 212 includes a guide portion 2123, which is disposed at the opening 2122 and used to guide the cable into and to the location of the through hole; the arrangement of the guide portion 2123 can improve the efficiency of the cable entering the opening 2122, so that the drone or the first drive member 211 drives the gear ring body 2121 to rotate so that the opening 2122 can be inserted into the cable more efficiently.
[0068] In some embodiments, the guide portion 2123 includes two guide plates that are arranged opposite each other and tend to open away from each other, thereby facilitating the cable to reach the through hole.
[0069] In some embodiments, the gear ring component 212 includes limiting portions 2124, which are respectively disposed on the axial end faces of the gear ring body 2121. The limiting portions 2124 are used to limit the positions of the gear ring body 2121 and the planetary gear component 213 in the axial direction. It can be understood that by providing limiting portions 2124 at both axial ends of the gear ring body 2121, the relative displacement of the gear ring body 2121 and the planetary gear component 213 in the axial direction is limited by physical blocking, so as to avoid disengagement or positional deviation between the two. It can also prevent power transmission interruption or deviation caused by axial movement during transmission, ensure the stability of the rotation and feeding action of the stripping assembly 220, and improve the accuracy of cable stripping and the reliability of equipment operation.
[0070] In some embodiments, the limiting part 2124 includes two limiting plates, which are respectively disposed on the axial end faces of the gear ring body 2121, thereby limiting the position of the gear ring body 2121 and the planetary gear component 213 to ensure reliable installation.
[0071] In some embodiments, at least two drive gears 2133 are provided and are respectively meshed with the drive gear 2132, and the arc length between adjacent drive gears 2133 is greater than the arc length of the opening 2122. At least three driven gears 2134 are provided, each driven gear 2134 is spaced apart from each other and meshes with the gear ring body 2121, and the arc length between adjacent driven gears 2134 is greater than the arc length of the opening 2122. Understandably, by setting at least two transmission gears 2133 to mesh with the driving gear 2132, and the arc length of adjacent transmission gears 2133 being greater than the arc length of the gear ring opening 2122, it is ensured that there are still gears meshing at the opening 2122, avoiding meshing gaps at the gear ring opening 2122, and ensuring continuous and stable power transmission; at least three driven gears 2134 are distributed at intervals, and the adjacent arc lengths are also greater than the arc length of the opening 2122, ensuring uninterrupted meshing throughout the process, and preventing the stripping assembly 220 from jamming or cutting deviation due to transmission interruption, thereby improving the continuity and accuracy of the cable stripping process.
[0072] In some embodiments, two drive gears 2133 are provided and located on both sides of the drive gear 2132, and three driven gears 2134 are provided and spaced apart. The driven gears 2134 are also spaced apart from the drive gears 2133, and the arc length between the intervals is greater than the arc length of the opening 2122.
[0073] In some embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 2 and Figure 5The blade component 221 includes a second drive member 2211 and a blade body 2212. The second drive member 2211 is used to drive the blade body 2212 to move, so as to adjust at least one of the extension amount or the feed speed of the blade body 2212. It is understood that the extension amount of the blade body 2212 is adjusted by the second drive member 2211 to adapt to cables of different specifications. At the same time, the feed speed of the blade body 2212 is adjusted according to the different specifications of the cables to ensure the stability and safety of cutting the insulation layer.
[0074] In some embodiments, the second drive member 2211 is connected to the blade body 2212 via a conventional mechanical transmission mechanism, thereby enabling adjustment of the extension amount of the blade body 2212 by drive. In some embodiments, the feed speed of the blade body 2212 can be adjusted by adjusting the power of the second drive member 2211.
[0075] In some embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 2 and Figure 5 The peeling gripper component 222 includes a third drive member 2224, a peeling double-ended screw 2225, and a peeling guide rail 2226. The third drive member 2224 is connected to the first peeling gripper 2221 and the second peeling gripper 2222 via the peeling double-ended screw 2225, so as to drive the first peeling gripper 2221 and the second peeling gripper 2222 to open and close relative to each other by forward and reverse rotation. The peeling guide rail 2226 is disposed through the first peeling gripper 2221 and the second peeling gripper 2222 and is used to guide the opening and closing of the first peeling gripper 2221 and the second peeling gripper 2222. Understandably, the third driving component 2224 drives the peeling double-ended screw 2225 to rotate in both directions. Utilizing the thread transmission characteristics of the double-ended screw, the first peeling jaw 2221 and the second peeling jaw 2222 move closer or further away from each other along the peeling guide rail 2226 to achieve opening and closing. The peeling guide rail 2226 then constrains the movement trajectory of the jaws, ensuring that the opening and closing action is smooth and precise.
[0076] It should be understood that after the locking mechanism 100 is locked, the stripping stroke of the stripping assembly 220 is actually fixed. Therefore, in order to achieve stroke adjustment after the cable is mounted, the connection relationship between the locking mechanism 100 and the stripping mechanism 200 and the corresponding structural design are the key to achieving the above functions.
[0077] In this regard, in some embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figures 1 to 7The cable stripping device includes a linear guide rail 300, which is mounted on a gear ring component 212. A locking mechanism 100 is slidably mounted on the linear guide rail 300, and the locking mechanism 100 and the gear ring component 212 can rotate synchronously. The locking mechanism 100 includes a first locking jaw 110 and a second locking jaw 120, which can open and close relative to each other to lock, clamp, or release the cable. The stripping jaw component 222 is used to lock, clamp, or release the cable. When the locking mechanism 100 locks the cable, the stripping jaw component 222 clamps or releases the cable, and the first driving member 21... 1. The first drive member 211 is used to drive the planetary gear component 213 to rotate. When the stripping jaw component 222 locks the cable, the locking mechanism 100 clamps or releases the cable. The first drive member 211 is used to drive the gear ring component 212 to rotate. The first locking jaw 110 and the second locking jaw 120 are respectively provided with locking helical teeth 130 so that when the cable is clamped, the locking helical teeth 130 contact the cable. The locking helical teeth 130 are used to convert part of the power generated when the gear ring component 212 rotates into the power to drive the locking mechanism 100 to move when it contacts the cable, so that the locking mechanism 100 moves synchronously along the axial direction of the cable when it rotates, so as to adjust the length of the cutting stroke.
[0078] Understandably, the linear guide rail 300 enables the synchronous rotation and axial sliding of the locking mechanism 100 and the gear ring component 212. The alternating locking engagement of the locking jaws and the peeling jaws, combined with the power conversion function of their helical teeth, achieves the alternation of cutting stroke adjustment and peeling action. Specifically, when the locking mechanism 100 is locked, the peeling jaws grip, and the planetary gear component 213 drives the peeling assembly 220 to rotate. Its helical teeth convert the rotational force into axial movement force to complete the peeling. When the peeling jaws are locked, the locking mechanism 100 grips, driving the gear ring component 212 to rotate. Its helical teeth convert the rotational force into axial movement force of the locking mechanism 100, adjusting the cutting stroke length.
[0079] It should be noted that, through the alternating locking of the dual grippers and the power conversion design, it can accurately complete the rotational cutting and stripping of the cable insulation layer, and flexibly adjust the cutting stroke to adapt to different length requirements. The linear guide 300 ensures smooth movement, and the helical tooth section ensures efficient power conversion. The overall lifting device is adaptable to different specifications of cables and has high stripping accuracy.
[0080] Exemplary, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 6The locking mechanism 100 includes a fourth driving member 140, a locking double-ended screw 150, and a locking guide rail 160. The fourth driving member 140 is connected to the first locking jaw 110 and the second locking jaw 120 via the locking double-ended screw 150, so as to drive the first locking jaw 110 and the second locking jaw 120 to open and close relative to each other by forward and reverse rotation. The locking guide rail 160 passes through the first locking jaw 110 and the second locking jaw 120 and is used to guide the opening and closing of the first locking jaw 110 and the second locking jaw 120. It can be understood that by driving the locking double-ended screw 150 to rotate forward and reverse by the fourth driving member 140, the thread transmission characteristics of the double-ended screw are used to drive the first locking jaw 110 and the second locking jaw 120 to move closer or further away relative to each other along the locking guide rail 160 (achieving opening and closing). The locking guide rail 160 constrains the movement trajectory of the jaws to ensure smooth and precise opening and closing action.
[0081] In some embodiments, the transmission of the double-ended screw ensures that the two locking jaws open and close synchronously and symmetrically, avoiding deviation when clamping the cable; the locking guide rail 160 guides and ensures stable jaw movement, so that the locking helical tooth 130 accurately contacts the cable, providing a reliable basis for converting the rotational power of the gear ring into the axial moving force of the locking mechanism 100, ensuring the firmness of cable locking and the accuracy of stroke adjustment.
[0082] Exemplary, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 6 The cable stripping device also includes a control device and a first sensor 400. The first sensor 400 is configured to be triggered when the locking mechanism 100 locks the cable. The control device detects the diameter of the cable through the first sensor 400. Based on the cable diameter parameter information, the control device adjusts the extension amount and feed speed of the blade component 221. It can be understood that the first sensor 400 is triggered when the locking mechanism 100 locks the cable, transmitting a signal to the control device. The control device uses this signal to detect the cable diameter, achieving automatic identification and parameter adaptation of the cable diameter. This avoids damage to the conductor due to excessive blade depth or failure to cut the insulation layer due to manual adjustment errors. Simultaneously, the dynamic adjustment of the feed speed ensures stripping efficiency and accuracy for cables of different diameters, improving the automation level and adaptability of the device.
[0083] Furthermore, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figure 4The cable stripping device also includes a second sensor 500. The control device determines the preset number of rotations of the blade component 221 based on the cable diameter parameters. The second sensor 500 is configured to detect the actual number of rotations of the blade component 221. Essentially, the control device first calculates the preset number of rotations required for the blade component 221 to complete the preset cutting stroke based on the cable diameter parameters; the second sensor 500 detects the actual number of rotations of the blade component 221 in real time and feeds the data back to the control device. By precisely controlling the cutting depth and range through the preset number of rotations, and by detecting the actual number of rotations, closed-loop control is achieved, avoiding incomplete stripping or over-cutting due to deviations in the number of rotations. This further improves the consistency and accuracy of cable stripping and adapts to automated and standardized operations.
[0084] The cable stripping device of this application is described in detail below with reference to a specific embodiment. It should be noted that the following embodiment is merely an exemplary description and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of this application.
[0085] See Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the cable stripping device in this embodiment specifically relates to a drone-mounted intelligent cable stripping device that can be mounted on a drone to remotely, quickly, and efficiently strip cables without power outages, and can be remotely unlocked after stripping. The device includes a remote controller and a mounted intelligent stripping device. The mounted intelligent stripping device operates according to the instructions of the remote controller.
[0086] The remote control includes a transmission module and buttons. The mounted intelligent peeling device mainly consists of a control and communication module, a battery, and a mounted peeling device. The battery provides power to the control and communication module; the mounted peeling device is used to perform various actions of the peeling operation; the control and communication module has a built-in gyroscope that can autonomously sense the status of the electric peeling device, that is, whether the opening 2122 of the gear ring is in the downward position.
[0087] The mounted cable stripping device consists of a drone connection component 600 and an intelligent cable stripping device. The drone connection component 600 and the intelligent cable stripping device are rigidly connected. A connector equipped on the drone engages with the drone connection component 600 to carry the mounted intelligent cable stripping device and attach it to the cable requiring stripping. The intelligent cable stripping device comprises a cable locking device and an electric cable stripping device. The electric cable stripping device is equipped with a linear guide rail 300. A pin hole in the cable locking guide rail 160 passes through the linear guide rail and connects to the cable locking device, which can slide on the linear guide rail.
[0088] The cable locking device consists of a locking bracket, a locking double-ended screw 150, a worm gear reducer motor, an upper locking clamp, a lower locking clamp, a locking guide rail 160, and a limit switch. The locking bracket provides support for the entire device. The locking guide rail 160 is installed parallel to the locking double-ended screw 150 inside the locking bracket and passes through the mounting holes of the upper and lower locking clamps. The locking guide rail 160 constrains the upper and lower locking clamps, allowing them to move only in the longitudinal direction, driven by the locking double-ended screw 150. When the locking double-ended screw 150 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, the upper and lower locking clamps move simultaneously towards or away from each other. One end of the locking double-ended screw 150 is connected to the worm gear reducer motor. When the worm gear reducer motor rotates, it transmits power through the locking double-ended screw 150, thereby controlling the movement of the upper and lower locking clamps. When the upper and lower locking devices move towards each other to clamp the cable, the limit switch is triggered, and the control system collects this signal as a basis for logical judgment.
[0089] The electric cable stripping device consists of an outer ring and a stripping actuator. The stripping actuator is installed inside the outer ring and cannot be disengaged; both can rotate independently around an axis. The outer ring consists of a gear ring, two limiting plates, two guide plates, and a linear track. The gear ring, as the main supporting structure of the outer ring, has an involute gear structure inside and meshes with the planetary gear component 213 of the stripping actuator. It has an opening 2122 at the bottom for hanging cables. The two limiting plates are installed on both sides of the gear ring to prevent the stripping actuator from disengaging. The two guide plates assist the gear ring in hanging cables, forming a larger V-shaped structure in the opening 2122, which is beneficial for cable hanging. The linear track is rigidly connected to the gear ring and is used to install a cable locking device.
[0090] The peeling actuator consists of a planetary gear component 213 and a peeling assembly 220. The planetary gear component 213 meshes with the gear ring, and its axis coincides with the axis of the gear ring, carrying the peeling assembly 220 to rotate around the axis.
[0091] The planetary gear assembly 213 consists of the following components, with the planetary gear carrier 2131 as the main structural element. A PG28 motor is fixed to one side of the planetary gear carrier 2131, and its output shaft is equipped with a drive gear 2132, which supplies power to the rotation of the mounted stripping device. All gears are mounted on one side of the planetary gear carrier 2131, and two transmission gears 2133 mesh with the drive gear 2132, rotating synchronously and in the same direction. A cable threading hole, as part of the planetary gear carrier 2131, is used for cable passage, providing power and signals to the target component, and preventing cable tangling or pulling. A retainer is mounted on the same side as the gears to fix the gear shaft, thereby improving structural strength. The planetary gear assembly 213 includes five gears meshing with the outer ring gear: three driven gears 2134 and two transmission gears 2133. The arc length between any two of the five gears is greater than the size of the ring gear opening 2122, ensuring that regardless of which gear is located within the ring gear opening 2122, there are two gears in any semicircle. This design ensures that the center of the planetary gear assembly 213 always coincides with the center of the ring gear. The driving gear 2132 is located between the two transmission gears 2133 and meshes with them, constantly providing power to both. The arc length between the two transmission gears 2133 is greater than the arc length of the ring gear opening 2122, thus ensuring that the planetary gear assembly 213 always receives rotational power. There is a gap between the driving gear 2132 and the ring gear; they do not contact each other. A Hall sensor is used to detect the position of the opening 2122 or for logical counting. A key design feature of this embodiment is that it uses a minimum of four points instead of the three-point principle to determine the center of a circle, effectively offsetting manufacturing errors and resulting in more precise and stable transmission.
[0092] The stripping gripper component 222 has a similar structure to the locking mechanism 100, and they are consistent in their cable clamping action. The stripping upper frame, as the main structural component, is rigidly connected to the planetary gear support 2131, and the two rotate together. The blades of the blade component 221 are mounted on the stripping upper frame through pin holes. The motor drives the slider by rotation, thereby controlling the blade rotation and achieving different blade feed rates. It is suitable for cables of different diameters and insulation thicknesses. In the initial state, the blades are completely retracted into the clamping blocks on the lever and do not contact the cable.
[0093] The intelligence of the cable stripping device in this application is reflected in its ability to sense the status of the equipment. During the operation, the information interaction between various devices such as motors, sensors, and timers (crystal oscillators) is recorded by the controller and logically judged to automatically handle faults.
[0094] Furthermore, refer to Figure 7The cable stripping device of this application embodiment includes four basic actions: reset preparation, insulation layer cutting (clamping the wire (recording motor no-load information) clamping, cutting, etc.), creeping function, and in-flight reset. It should be noted that the creeping program's action logic is as follows: when the stripping component 220 contacts the cable and the cable locking device clamps the cable, it is fixed to the gear ring. The driven gear 2134, under the power of the transmission gear 2133, drives the planetary gear support 2131 and the stripping component 220 to rotate around the outer ring center. Conversely, when the cable locking device contacts the cable, the stripping component 220 clamps the cable, the stripping actuator is fixed, and the outer ring rotates around the gear ring center under the power of the transmission gear 2133. The insulation layer cutting program action: the stripping component 220 contacts the cable until the limit switch is activated, and the motor stops. The motor then continues to run for two revolutions, completing the cutting operation.
[0095] The drone of the second aspect of this application includes: the cable stripping device of the first aspect of this application.
[0096] In some embodiments, the cable stripping device also includes a drone connection component 600. The drone is connected to the cable stripping device through the drone connection component 600. The drone is used to mount the cable stripping device in the cable. Once the cable stripping device is in place, the cable stripping operation can be achieved under the control of the control device.
[0097] For example, the drone connection component 600 is a drone lanyard, which is rigidly connected to the intelligent stripping device. The hook equipped on the drone can be suspended on the drone lanyard to carry the mounted intelligent stripping device and attach it to the cable to which stripping operation is required.
[0098] It is easy to understand that the drone in the second aspect embodiment of this application has the same technical effect as the cable stripping device in the first aspect embodiment, and therefore will not be described again.
