AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing cable laying devices, the rotational speed of the winding wheel is not matched with the speed of the cable laying guide device, which causes the cable to accumulate or be overstretched on the winding wheel, affecting the quality and efficiency of cable laying.

Method used

The system employs a frame, winding wheel assembly, horizontal movement mechanism, vision inspection device, and cable control unit. The vision inspection device detects the leading edge position of the cable in real time, and the speed sensor and controller adjust the speed of the winding wheel and the speed and direction of the horizontal movement mechanism to ensure matching and avoid cable accumulation or excessive stretching.

Benefits of technology

It achieves uniformity and compactness in cable laying, improves laying quality and efficiency, reduces manual intervention, and is suitable for cables of various specifications.

Abstract

This invention relates to an automatic cable laying device and method, comprising: a frame; a winding wheel assembly disposed on the upper end of the frame; a horizontal moving mechanism disposed on the upper end of the frame, wherein a slide extending along the length of the winding wheel's axis is provided on the frame, and the horizontal moving mechanism reciprocates along the extension direction of the slide; a cable guiding unit fixedly disposed on the upper end of the horizontal moving mechanism; a vision detection device connected to the horizontal moving mechanism and disposed facing the winding wheel assembly; and a cable laying control unit, including a controller and a speed sensor, the speed sensor being disposed on the side end of the winding wheel; the controller is disposed on the frame and electrically connected to the winding wheel assembly, the horizontal moving mechanism, the vision detection device, and the speed sensor, respectively, for controlling the drive motor to adjust the winding wheel speed and the moving direction and speed of the horizontal moving mechanism. By adopting this structure, cable accumulation or excessive stretching is avoided during cable laying on the winding wheel, ensuring uniform and tight laying, and improving laying quality and efficiency.
