[0002] Steel wire rope is first twisted into strands by multiple layers of steel wires, and then twisted into a spiral rope with a certain number of strands around the rope core. In material handling machinery, it is used for lifting, traction, tensioning and bearing. According to statistics, 70-80% of scrapped steel wire ropes are caused by corrosion. Under normal circumstances, the life of a well-lubricated steel wire rope and a poorly lubricated steel wire rope differs by 2-3 times. Under special ambient temperatures, the impact of lubrication on the service life of the steel wire rope may even exceed the quality of the steel wire itself. The lubrication of steel wire ropes at construction sites has always been done by traditional manual application. It is difficult for grease (oil) to enter the interior of the steel wire rope, the lubrication is not thorough, and the efficiency is low. The maintenance of the steel wire rope is time-consuming and laborious.

The automatic lubrication mechanism 4 includes a lubrication groove 401, and the wire rope 6 is arranged to pass through both sides of the lubrication groove 401. The lubrication groove 401 contains lubricating oil, and the wire rope 6 is immersed in the lubricating oil.

[0023] The brush roller 10 includes a roller frame 101 arranged in a cleaning groove 201, and brushes 102 arranged in an array on the inner side of the roller frame 101, the brushes 102 are in contact with the side of the wire rope 6, and the automatic cleaning mechanism 2 also includes a spray system arranged above the roller frame 101, the spray system includes a plurality of spray heads 11 arranged toward the roller frame 101, and the cleaning liquid is sprayed to the contact part between the brush 102 and the wire rope 6 through the spray heads 11.

[0024] The straightening wheel set includes two lower straightening wheels 13 rotatably arranged below the inner side of the support groove 301, and an upper straightening wheel 12 rotatably arranged above the inner side of the support groove 301. The lower straightening wheels 13 and the upper straightening wheel 12 are arranged in a "pin" shape. The side parts of the steel wire rope 6 are respectively in contact with the upper straightening wheel 12 and the lower straightening wheels 13. The upper straightening wheel 12 includes a wheel shaft 121 connected to the support groove 301 and a wheel body 122 rotatably arranged on the wheel shaft 121. Both ends of the wheel shaft 121 are arranged on the support groove 301 in a liftable manner.

[0025] An ultrasonic oscillator 14 and a temperature control unit 15 for controlling the temperature of the lubricating oil are arranged on the bottom side of the lubricating groove 401. The temperature control unit can adjust the temperature of the lubricating oil. Under high-temperature conditions, the viscosity of the lubricating oil will decrease and the fluidity will be better.

The structure of the wire rope winding mechanism 5 is the same as that of the wire rope releasing mechanism 1.

[0027] The specific working process of the present utility model:

[0028] During use, the steel wire rope 6 is transmitted through the wire rope releasing mechanism 1 and the wire rope winding mechanism 5. When the steel wire rope 6 passes through the brush roller 10 of the automatic cleaning mechanism 2, it is cleaned by the bristles inside the brush roller 10. At this time, the cleaning liquid sprayed by the spray head 11 further cleans the steel wire rope 6. The dirt and the cleaning liquid together fall into the cleaning tank 201. The steel wire rope 6 continues to move forward to the automatic straightening mechanism 3 and passes between the upper straightening wheel 12 and the lower straightening wheels 13. Under the action of friction, the upper straightening wheel 12 and the lower straightening wheels 13 roll to straighten the steel wire rope 6. By lifting the wheel shaft 121, the pressure on the steel wire rope 6 and the straightening of different steel wire ropes 6 can be adjusted. After the steel wire rope 6 is straightened, it enters the automatic lubrication mechanism 4. The lubricating groove 401 is relatively narrow and long. When the steel wire rope 6 is affected by gravity and sags in the lubricating groove 401 until it is completely immersed in the lubricating oil, under the vibration of the ultrasonic oscillator 14, the lubricating oil infiltrates into the inside of the steel wire rope 6 to complete the lubrication of the steel wire rope 6. The temperature of the lubricating oil is adjusted by the temperature control unit 15 to control the viscosity of the lubricating oil to ensure the lubrication of the steel wire rope 6.

[0029] The external dirt of the steel wire rope 6 is cleaned by the automatic cleaning mechanism 2, the bending of the steel wire rope 6 is straightened by the automatic straightening mechanism 3, the steel wire rope 6 is lubricated by the automatic lubrication mechanism 4, and the steel wire rope 6 is牵引 by the wire rope releasing mechanism 1 and the wire rope winding mechanism 5. The steel wire rope 6 not only has a better maintenance effect but also has a higher maintenance efficiency;

[0030] The cleaning liquid sprayed by the brush 102 and the spray head 11 in the automatic cleaning mechanism 2 can be cleaned more thoroughly on the outside of the wire rope 6. Under the traction of the rope-releasing mechanism 1 and the rope-collecting mechanism 5, the upper straightening wheel 12 and the lower straightening wheel 13 in the automatic correction mechanism can be used to limit and straighten the wire rope 6 more efficiently and conveniently. The operation of the ultrasonic oscillator 14 in the automatic lubrication mechanism 4 allows the lubricating oil to quickly penetrate into the inside of the wire rope 6, so that the maintenance effect of the wire rope 6 is better and the efficiency is higher.

[0031] The ultrasonic oscillator 14 and the temperature control unit 15 are implemented by using the existing technology, which will not be described in detail here. The technical features not described in the present invention can be implemented by or using the existing technology, which will not be repeated here. Of course, the above description is not a limitation of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples. Changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by ordinary technicians in this technical field within the essential scope of the present invention should also fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
