[0010] The technical effects of the wire storage cylinder module of the embodiment of the present application are as follows:

[0011] The wire storage cylinder module of the embodiment of the present application is provided with a first driving member and a rotation driving assembly. The outer side walls of the first driving member and the wire storage cylinder can be in contact with or separated from each other.

The objectives and other advantages of the present utility model can be realized and obtained by the structures specifically pointed out in the specification and the drawings. Description of the Drawings

[0013] The drawings are used to provide a further understanding of the technical solutions of the present utility model, and constitute a part of the specification. Together with the embodiments of the present application, they are used to explain the technical solutions of the present utility model, and do not constitute a limitation to the technical solutions of the present utility model.

[0014] Figure 1 It is a schematic structural diagram of the wire storage cylinder module of an embodiment of the present application. Detailed Embodiments

[0015] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer and more understandable, the embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments and the features in the embodiments in the present application can be combined with each other arbitrarily.

[0016] Please refer to the Figure 1 Schematic structural diagram of the wire storage cylinder module of the embodiment of the present application shown. The embodiment of the present application provides a wire storage cylinder module, as Figure 1As shown, it includes a wire storage cylinder 1, a first driving member 2, and a rotation driving assembly 3. Among them, the wire storage cylinder 1 is configured to be rotatable about its own axis to store or release the electrode wire; the first driving member 2 is located on the radially outer side of the wire storage cylinder 1 and is configured to be movable relative to the wire storage cylinder 1 along the radial direction of the wire storage cylinder 1, so that the outer side walls of the first driving member 2 and the wire storage cylinder 1 are in contact with or separated from each other; the rotation driving assembly 3 is configured to drive the first driving member 2 to rotate about its own axis when the outer side wall of the first driving member 2 abuts against the outer side wall of the wire storage cylinder 1, thereby driving the wire storage cylinder 1 to rotate.

[0017] In the prior art, during the automatic wire threading process of a middle wire walking electrical discharge machine tool, due to the fact that the wire storage cylinder itself has a certain torque resistance, and other module structures connected to the wire storage cylinder also have a certain resistance effect on the rotation of the wire storage cylinder, the automatic wire threading speed of the middle wire walking electrical discharge machine tool is slow, the wire threading process takes a long time, and the speed of the wire storage cylinder releasing the electrode wire is not stable.

[0018] The wire storage cylinder module of the embodiment of the present application is provided with a first driving member 2 and a rotation driving assembly 3, and the outer side walls of the first driving member 2 and the wire storage cylinder 1 can be in contact with or separated from each other. When the outer side wall of the first driving member 2 abuts against the outer side wall of the wire storage cylinder 1, the rotation driving assembly 3 can drive the first driving member 2 to rotate about its own axis, thereby driving the wire storage cylinder 1 to rotate. Thus, when the wire storage cylinder module of the present application is applied to the wire threading process of a middle wire walking electrical discharge machine tool, the rotation driving assembly 3 is set to control the rotation speed of the wire storage cylinder 1 through the first driving member 2, so as to realize the active wire releasing operation of the wire storage cylinder module, which is beneficial to improving the automatic wire threading speed of the wire storage cylinder 1 and shortening the automatic wire threading time, and solves the problem that the wire releasing speed of the wire storage cylinder 1 is relatively slow due to the resistance of the wire storage cylinder 1 itself and the resistance of other module structures connected to the wire storage cylinder 1. Moreover, the wire storage cylinder module can actively control the automatic wire threading and wire releasing speeds of the wire storage cylinder 1, so that the wire releasing speed of the wire storage cylinder 1 is also more stable, and there will be no large fluctuations in the wire releasing speed of the wire storage cylinder 1.

[0019] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the first driving member 2 is set as a flexible wheel, and the axes of the flexible wheel and the wire storage cylinder 1 are parallel.

[0020] Specifically, a wheel filled with soft materials such as air inside to achieve softening is called a flexible wheel. The flexible wheel is used for fine operations, can reduce noise and increase the heat dissipation effect. The first driving member 2 is set as a flexible wheel, and the outer side walls of the flexible wheel and the wire storage cylinder 1 are pressed against each other, and there is a frictional force between the flexible wheel and the wire storage cylinder 1, so as to realize the flexible wheel driving the wire storage cylinder 1 to rotate.

[0021] It can be understood that the first driving member 2 can also be set as a gear, and corresponding teeth are provided on the outer sidewall of the wire storage cylinder 1. Through the meshing transmission of the teeth, the purpose of driving the wire storage cylinder 1 to rotate by the rotation of the first driving member 2 can also be achieved.

[0023] Specifically, the radial driving assembly 4 is configured to drive the first driving member 2 to move along the radial direction of the wire storage cylinder 1 so that the outer sidewalls of the first driving member 2 and the wire storage cylinder 1 are abutted or separated from each other.

[0024] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the wire storage cylinder module further includes a cylinder base 5. The cylinder base 5 is located at one end of the wire storage cylinder 1, and the radial driving assembly 4 is connected to the cylinder base 5.

[0025] Specifically, the cylinder base 5 is used to mount and support the radial driving assembly 4, which facilitates the radial driving assembly 4 to drive the first driving member 2 to move along the radial direction of the wire storage cylinder 1 and can also save the space occupied by the device. It can be understood that the radial driving assembly 4 can also be mounted on a bracket structure outside the wire storage cylinder 1.

[0026] In an exemplary embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the radial driving assembly 4 includes a support member 41. The rotation driving assembly 3 is connected to the support member 41, and the rotation output end of the rotation driving assembly 3 is connected to the first driving member 2.

[0027] The radial driving assembly 4 drives the support member 41 to move along the radial direction of the wire storage cylinder 1 to drive the first driving member 2 to move along the radial direction of the wire storage cylinder 1.

The rotation driving assembly 3 is mounted to the support member 41, and the rotation driving assembly 3 can move along the radial direction of the wire storage cylinder 1 together with the support member 41.

[0031] Specifically, the piston 422 moves telescopically, thereby driving the support member 41, the motor 31, and the first driving member 2 to move radially along the wire storage cylinder 1. The output shaft of the motor 31 can drive the first driving member 2 to perform a rotational movement.

[0032] In an exemplary embodiment, when the wire storage cylinder 1 is in the automatic wire threading state, the outer sidewall of the first driving member 2 abuts against the outer sidewall of the wire storage cylinder 1.

[0033] After the automatic wire threading operation of the wire storage cylinder 1 is completed, the outer sidewall of the first driving member 2 separates from the outer sidewall of the wire storage cylinder 1.

[0034] Specifically, the radial driving assembly 4 drives the first driving member 2 to move radially along the wire storage cylinder 1, so that the outer sidewalls of the first driving member 2 and the wire storage cylinder 1 abut against each other, and the rotational driving assembly 3 drives the first driving member 2 to rotate, thereby driving the wire storage cylinder 1 to perform a rotational movement. At this time, the wire storage cylinder 1 is in the automatic wire threading state, thus realizing the active wire feeding operation of the wire storage cylinder 1.
