Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cable recycling technology, and more specifically to a method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium for processing waste cables. Background Technology

[0002] The disposal of waste electrical wires and cables often causes environmental problems. Waste cables contain large amounts of harmful substances and heavy metals, such as lead, cadmium, mercury, and chromium. Direct release into the environment can cause significant damage. In particular, the sparks generated can easily lead to fires.

[0003] Current cable processing typically requires manual feeding of the cable and a series of tedious processing steps. These steps are largely manual, resulting in low efficiency and inconsistent processing quality. Furthermore, for cables of different diameters, frequent adjustments to equipment parameters are necessary, increasing operational complexity and time costs. Therefore, existing cable processing technologies suffer from low efficiency, inconsistent processing quality, and complex operation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium for processing waste cables, for all or at least part of the problems of low processing efficiency, unstable processing quality, and complex operation in the existing cable processing technology.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, embodiments of the present invention provide a method for processing waste cables, comprising: The control traction machine transports the waste cable to be processed to the hydraulic cable cutting machine for cutting, obtaining multiple sections of waste cable. During the transport process, the moving direction of the waste cable to be processed is adjusted by the guide column so that the waste cable to be processed can be smoothly input into the hydraulic cable cutting machine. The control traction machine transports multiple sections of waste cable to the sheathing machine for sheathing to obtain the cable core, and then performs a second sheathing process on the cable core to obtain the wire core.

[0006] Optionally, the cutting time of the hydraulic cable cutter can be adjusted according to the diameter of the waste cable to be processed, wherein the cutting time is determined based on the historical cutting time of cables with different diameters.

[0007] Optionally, the traction machine is controlled to transport multiple sections of waste cable to a stripping machine for stripping processing to obtain the waste cable cores, including: The control traction machine transports multiple sections of waste cable to rollers for cable straightening, and then feeds the straightened cable into the stripping machine; The cutting depth and force are adjusted according to the spacing between the drive rollers of the cable bracket and the distance between the blades to achieve complete cutting of the cable sheath and obtain the cable sheath and cable core. The control cable sheath and cable core enter the adjustable guide mechanism. The guide head in the adjustable guide mechanism will adjust the width according to the cable core support. The guide head extends into the cutter head end so that the broken cable enters the guide mechanism. A variable diameter round bar is added to the outside of the guide mechanism to fill the cable sheath of different diameters to support and guide the cable sheath into the rolling mechanism so that the cable sheath is detached and the cable core is obtained.

[0008] Optionally, the cable sheath can be further separated by an armor separation mechanism located at the outer end of the conveying roller, so that the detached armor and cable sheath fall into the corresponding storage boxes respectively.

[0009] Optionally, the cable core may undergo a secondary sheathing process to obtain the core, including: The cable cores are sorted and categorized before being placed into the slot and then into the secondary sheathing mechanism. After the cable core is damaged, the outer sheath and the core are separated by a separation mechanism to obtain the core.

[0010] On the other hand, the present invention also provides a device for processing waste cables, comprising: A traction machine, used to drag cables to input cables; Guide posts are used to change the direction of cable movement; The hydraulic cable cutter automatically cuts the cable according to the length input on the interface and sets a dwell time to ensure smooth cable cutting. The dwell time is determined based on the cable diameter adjustment results. The cable sheath cutting machine uses hydraulic control to cut the cable sheath. It includes upper and lower blades that cut through the cable sheath and the armor wrapped inside the cable. Rollers are set in front of the blades to assist the cable in entering the cable sheath cutting machine and to provide power for the sheath cutting and conveying. An adjustable guide mechanism is installed after the cable sheathing machine. The guide head adjusts its width according to the cable core support to guide the broken cable smoothly into the guide mechanism. A variable diameter round bar is provided on the outside of the guide mechanism to support and guide the cable sheath into the rolling mechanism. The armor separation mechanism is located at the outer end of the conveyor roller and is used to further separate the outer skin, so that the detached armor falls into the storage box and the outer skin is sent to the outer storage box. The rolling mechanism is used to roll the cables into a row, so that the filler falls from the middle of the roller spacing into the storage box; The wire core sorting mechanism, located after the rolling mechanism, sorts and classifies the wire cores into slots, preparing them for the secondary sheath breaking mechanism. The secondary sheath breaking mechanism has multiple stations, each of which includes a spring mechanism for breaking the outer sheath of wire cores of different diameters.

[0011] On the other hand, the present invention also provides an electronic device, including a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein the processor executes the program to implement the steps of the above-described waste cable processing method.

[0012] On the other hand, the present invention also provides a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon, wherein the computer program, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of the above-described waste cable processing method.

[0013] The above technical solution enables fully automated processing of cables from input to processing to output, greatly improving processing efficiency and the stability of processing quality, while reducing operational complexity and time costs.

[0014] Other features and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail in the following detailed description section. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0016] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0017] See Figure 1The diagram shown is a flowchart illustrating an embodiment of a method for processing waste cables according to the present invention, comprising the following steps: Step 100: Control the traction machine to transport the waste cable to be processed to the hydraulic cable cutting machine for cutting, and obtain multiple sections of waste cable. During the transport process, the moving direction of the waste cable to be processed is adjusted by the guide column so that the waste cable to be processed can be smoothly input into the hydraulic cable cutting machine.

[0018] It should be noted that the cutting time of the hydraulic cable cutter is adjusted according to the diameter of the waste cable to be processed. The cutting time is determined based on the historical cutting time of cables with different diameters.

[0019] It should be understood that the cut length of the cable can be set according to the actual application scenario, for example, 15cm, and there is no limit here.

[0020] In some implementations, the length to be cut is input via an interface, and the device automatically cuts the cable. An intermediate dwell time is required to ensure that the cable is cut smoothly. The cutting time for cables of different diameters is determined based on the debugging results, and thus the device's operating dwell time is determined.

[0021] Step 101: Control the traction machine to transport multiple sections of waste cable to the sheathing machine for sheathing treatment to obtain the cable core, and perform a second sheathing treatment on the cable core to obtain the core.

[0022] Specifically, when controlling the traction machine in step 101 to transport multiple sections of waste cable to the sheath-breaking machine for sheath-breaking processing to obtain the cable core, the following steps can be performed: S1010: Controls the traction machine to transport multiple sections of waste cable to the roller for cable straightening, and then inputs the straightened cable into the exfoliating machine.

[0023] In some implementations, see Figure 2 As shown, after cutting, the cut section needs to continue operating, so a traction machine is added to transport the cable to the input port of the breaker. Since the distance between the cut port and the breaker port is large, a roller is added to straighten the cable.

[0024] S1011: The cutting depth and force are adjusted according to the spacing between the drive rollers of the cable bracket and the distance between the blades to achieve complete cutting of the cable sheath and obtain the cable sheath and cable core.

[0025] In some implementations, after the cable enters the sheath-cutting mechanism, upper and lower blades cut open the cable sheath, separating it into two parts. If the cable has armor, it is also cut through. A roller is added in front of the blades to facilitate the cable's smooth entry into the sheath-cutting machine and to provide power for the sheath-cutting conveyor. The sheath-cutting machine is hydraulically controlled, allowing for easy adjustment of the cutting depth and force. The system can also completely cut the cable sheath by adjusting the spacing between the rollers driven by the cable support and the distance between the blades. The equipment requires a motor and a reducer for drive, and the movement speed cannot be too high.

[0026] S1012: Controls the cable sheath and cable core to enter the adjustable guide mechanism. The guide head in the adjustable guide mechanism will adjust the width according to the cable core support. The guide head extends into the cutter head end so that the broken cable enters the guide mechanism. A variable diameter round bar is added to the outside of the guide mechanism to fill the cable sheath of different diameters to support and guide the cable sheath into the rolling mechanism to make the cable sheath fall off and obtain the cable core.

[0027] Because the outer sheath is easily twisted and deformed, making it difficult to enter the rolling section, a variable diameter round bar is added to the outside of the guide mechanism. This bar can be filled with cable sheaths of different diameters, providing support for the cable sheath and guiding it into the rolling mechanism.

[0028] Furthermore, because the cable sheath is a steel coil of a certain width wrapped around the inside of the cable, and is semi-circular after being cut simultaneously from both sides, it is easy to detach. Adding a conveyor roller serves two purposes: firstly, to further feed the outer sheath to the outside, and secondly, to further peel off the armor from the inside of the outer sheath. To prevent the armor from remaining, an armor separation mechanism located at the outer end of the conveyor roller further separates the cable sheath, allowing the detached armor and cable sheath to fall into their respective collection boxes.

[0029] In some implementations, the cables are rolled into a row during transport, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the conveying process continues, with filler material continuously falling from the gaps between the rollers and being collected into the storage box. During operation, a ventilation system is added below to facilitate better collection of the filler material.

[0030] Specifically, the process of performing a secondary sheathing treatment on the cable core to obtain the core includes: sorting and classifying the cable cores into slots and then entering the secondary sheathing mechanism; after the cable core is sheathed, the outer sheath and the core are separated by a separation mechanism to obtain the core.

[0031] In some implementations, a mechanism is added to comb and categorize the wire cores, placing them into slots in preparation for the secondary sheath-breaking mechanism. This secondary sheath-breaking mechanism has eight stations. After combing, the wire cores on the platform are conveyed to the sheath-breaking mechanism. This mechanism and its control method are the same as the previous sheath-breaking mechanism, and can be set and controlled. A spring mechanism is added to this station to smoothly break the outer sheath of wire cores of different diameters within a certain range. After sheathing, the outer sheath is cleanly separated by a separation mechanism. The wire cores continue to be conveyed forward, collected together, and the outer sheath falls into a collection box.

[0032] In some implementations, see Figure 4 The diagram shown is a detailed process flow chart of a waste cable provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The process includes: first, manually controlling a traction machine to feed the waste cable in; then, a hydraulic cable cutter to cut the waste cable to a preset length; breaking open the outer sheath and armor of the cut cable; separating the cable using a guide head; collecting the outer sheath and armor; collecting the filler around the core and the separated core; after processing, the core undergoes a second process of breaking open the outer sheath and collecting the core; and finally, the core is packaged.

[0033] See Figure 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a waste cable processing device, comprising: A traction machine, used to drag cables to input cables; Guide posts are used to change the direction of cable movement; The hydraulic cable cutter automatically cuts the cable according to the length input on the interface and sets a dwell time to ensure smooth cable cutting. The dwell time is determined based on the cable diameter adjustment results. The cable sheath cutting machine uses hydraulic control to cut the cable sheath. It includes upper and lower blades that cut through the cable sheath and the armor wrapped inside the cable. Rollers are set in front of the blades to assist the cable in entering the cable sheath cutting machine and to provide power for the sheath cutting and conveying. An adjustable guide mechanism is installed after the cable sheathing machine. The guide head adjusts its width according to the cable core support to guide the broken cable smoothly into the guide mechanism. A variable diameter round bar is provided on the outside of the guide mechanism to support and guide the cable sheath into the rolling mechanism. The armor separation mechanism is located at the outer end of the conveyor roller and is used to further separate the outer skin, so that the detached armor falls into the storage box and the outer skin is sent to the outer storage box. The rolling mechanism is used to roll the cables into a row, so that the filler falls from the middle of the roller spacing into the storage box; The wire core sorting mechanism, located after the rolling mechanism, sorts and classifies the wire cores into slots, preparing them for the secondary sheath breaking mechanism. The secondary sheath breaking mechanism has multiple stations, each of which includes a spring mechanism for breaking the outer sheath of wire cores of different diameters.

[0034] By integrating automated equipment, the entire process of cable processing, from input to output, is automated, greatly improving processing efficiency. At the same time, the precise control system and debugging module ensure the stability and consistency of processing quality. In addition, the equipment has a compact structure and is easy to operate, reducing operational complexity and time costs.
