Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of flat wire processing technology, specifically relating to a mechanism for simultaneous winding and bundling of flat wire. Background Technology

[0002] Flat wire, a key basic material in the metal processing field, is widely used in various industries such as construction, hardware, and textiles. Its production efficiency and processing precision directly affect the production rhythm of downstream industries. The metal flat wire machine, as the core equipment for flat wire forming, mainly processes round metal wires into flat wires with regular cross-sections through plastic deformation processes such as drawing and flattening. Coiling and bundling are the key processes at the beginning and end of flat wire production. The coiling process requires winding the formed flat wire into a coil shape according to a preset length or weight, ensuring the flatness and tension uniformity of the coil. The bundling process requires fixing the coil in sections using round metal wires to prevent unwinding during transportation and storage. The synergistic efficiency of these two processes is a crucial factor determining the overall capacity of the flat wire machine.

[0003] Most mainstream flat wire machines on the market currently adopt a single-station serial operation mode, meaning that the winding and binding processes are performed sequentially at the same station. The specific process is as follows: the feeding mechanism fixes the front end of the flat wire to the core, and the core rotates to complete the winding operation; once the winding reaches the set specifications, the flat wire is automatically cut, and the machine switches to binding mode, where metal round wire binds the winding in three sections; after binding, the winding is unloaded, and the station can restart the next round of winding operations. This mode has a simple structure and intuitive control logic, and is widely used in small-to-medium batch production scenarios.

[0004] However, the aforementioned sequential operation mode suffers from significant efficiency bottlenecks. During the bundling process, the winding mechanism is completely idle and cannot perform new winding operations, resulting in substantial downtime and prolonged production cycles. With the continuous growth in demand for flat yarn from downstream industries and the increasing demands for production efficiency, the shortcomings of the traditional single-station mode are becoming increasingly prominent, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale, high-efficiency production. Therefore, this invention proposes a mechanism for simultaneous winding and bundling of flat yarn in a flat yarn machine to at least partially solve the aforementioned problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology, this invention provides a mechanism for simultaneous winding and bundling of flat wire machines, which solves the problems of long downtime, limited production cycle, and low overall efficiency caused by the sequential operation of winding and bundling processes in traditional flat wire machines.

[0006] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solution: a mechanism for simultaneous winding and bundling of flat yarn, comprising a rotating disc body, a drive mechanism, and at least two workstations; the drive mechanism is used to drive the rotating disc body to rotate in an indexing manner; the workstations are arranged on the rotating disc body and rotate synchronously; the workstations include a winding workstation for winding flat yarn and a bundling workstation for bundling flat yarn rolls; wherein the winding workstation and the bundling workstation are symmetrically arranged, and when the drive mechanism drives the rotating disc body to rotate to a predetermined position, the winding workstation performs the winding operation, and at the same time, the bundling workstation performs the bundling operation.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the driving mechanism includes a rotary motor and a pinion gear that meshes with and drives the rotating disk body. The rotary motor drives the pinion gear to rotate the rotating disk body.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the wire winding station and the binding station are symmetrically distributed 180 degrees along the radial direction of the rotating disk body, and the driving mechanism drives the rotating disk body to rotate 180 degrees in increments to realize the function switching of the two stations.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it further includes a positioning and locking device for locking the rotating disk body after the rotating disk body has rotated into position; the positioning and locking device includes a limiting structure disposed on the rotating disk body and a sensor that cooperates with the limiting structure.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the wire winding station includes a core for winding flat wire and a wire winding self-rotating motor for driving the core to rotate.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the binding station includes a binding device, which includes a round wire feeding motor for feeding binding wire and a round wire push rod for performing binding actions.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By integrating the winding station and the binding station into a rotatable disc body and symmetrically distributing them, and coordinating with the 180-degree indexing rotation control of the drive mechanism, the two key processes of winding and binding are spatially separated and temporally synchronized. This design transforms the idle time occupied by the binding process in traditional serial operations into effective production time for the other station, significantly shortening the production cycle of a single roll of product and greatly improving equipment utilization and overall production efficiency. Simultaneously, the compact structure facilitates equipment layout. Attached Figure Description

[0019] To further illustrate the technical means and effects of the present invention in achieving its intended purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structures, features, and effects of the present invention, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments, is provided.

[0020] In the metal products processing industry, flat wire, as a basic material, directly affects the cost and supply of downstream industries through its production efficiency. Current flat wire machines typically employ a single-station serial operation mode for the two key processes at the end of the production process: winding and bundling. This results in the winding mechanism being idle during the bundling operation, leading to low equipment utilization and long production cycles.

[0021] For the above issues, please refer to Figures 1-4 This invention provides a mechanism for the simultaneous winding and bundling of flat wire. Its core includes a large gear 7 serving as a rotating disk, a drive mechanism, and at least two workstations disposed thereon. The two workstations are symmetrically distributed 180 degrees radially along the large gear 7, and are respectively the winding workstation 1 and the bundling workstation 2.

[0022] The drive mechanism is used to drive the rotating disk body to perform indexing rotation. In this embodiment, it includes a rotary motor 5, a large gear 7 that meshes with a small gear 6, a bearing 4, and a bearing mounting base 8. The rotary motor 5 drives the small gear 6, which in turn drives the large gear 7 to perform 180-degree indexing rotation, thereby achieving precise position interchange between the wire winding station 1 and the binding station 2. The large gear 7 is supported on the bearing mounting base 8 by the bearing 4, ensuring the smoothness of rotation. The system can also be equipped with a positioning and locking device, such as a limit structure and a sensor, to ensure that the rotating disk body is firmly locked after the station is switched into position.

[0023] The core function of the winding station 1 is to wind flat wire. It includes at least a winding core for winding the flat wire and a winding self-rotating motor 9 that drives the winding core to rotate. During operation, the front end of the flat wire is fixed to the winding core (for example, with the assistance of structures such as end caps 3), and the winding self-rotating motor 9 is started, driving the winding core to regularly wind the flat wire into a coil. For ease of understanding, optional components such as 3 for auxiliary fixing are also shown in the figure.

[0024] The core function of the bundling station 2 is to bundle and fix the formed flat wire rolls. It includes at least a bundling device, which comprises a wire feeding motor 16 for conveying the metal round wires used for bundling, and a wire pusher 18 for performing the winding and fixing actions. The wire pusher 18 can be driven by a wire pusher movement motor 15 to adjust to different positions on the roll for bundling. During the bundling process, conventional clamping or limiting methods can be used to maintain the stability of the roll. The auxiliary locking device 21 and its drive cylinder shown in the attached figures are merely an exemplary optional structure for achieving the clamping function.

[0025] The working principle and core advantage of this invention lie in its innovative synchronous operation process. Within a work cycle, while the filament winding station 1 is winding flat filaments, the binding station 2 on the other side can simultaneously perform binding operations on the coils that have been wound in the previous cycle. Once both sides have completed their operations, the drive mechanism rotates the rotating disc 180 degrees, the two stations switch roles, and the next round of parallel operations immediately begins. In this way, the time occupied by the binding operation in traditional processes is converted into time for effective filament winding production at the other station, thereby achieving parallel processing, significantly reducing equipment idle time, and greatly improving overall production efficiency.

[0026] In summary, this invention, through its rotating disc body and symmetrical dual-station design, achieves spatial separation and temporal synchronization of the winding and bundling processes, fundamentally breaking through the efficiency bottleneck of traditional serial operation modes. This compact mechanism effectively improves equipment utilization and production efficiency, demonstrating significant practical value and promising prospects for wider application.

[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention in any way. Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present invention. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention are within the scope of the present invention.
