[0055] The following are specific embodiments of the present utility model, and the technical solutions of the present utility model will be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present utility model is not limited to these embodiments.
[0056] As Figures 1 - 3 shown, an automatic cable nut screwing device includes:
[0057] Mounting bracket 200;
[0058] Sliding table 201, movably arranged on the mounting bracket 200;
[0059] Horizontal displacement assembly 230, arranged on the mounting bracket 200; the horizontal displacement assembly 230 is used to drive the sliding table 201 to make reciprocating linear movement along a set direction;
[0060] Screwing device, arranged on the sliding table 201, and the screwing device is used to perform the screwing action on the cable nut.
[0061] The screwing device includes:
[0062] Screwing head 210, on which a wrench opening 211 is formed, and the wrench opening 211 is sleeved on the outside of the nut to be assembled to perform the screwing work;
[0063] Drive source 220, which is used to drive the screwing head 210 to rotate, so as to achieve the purpose of tightening the cable nut.
[0064] The opening direction of the wrench opening 211 is the same as the moving direction of the sliding table 201, so that the wrench opening 211 can be sleeved on the outside of the nut to be assembled.
[0065] As Figures 1 - 3 shown, the drive source 220 is a motor, and a drive gear 221 is sleeved on the drive shaft of the drive source 220.
[0066] A gear disk 212 is connected above the screwing head 210, and an avoidance groove 213 is formed on the gear disk 212, and the opening direction of the avoidance groove 213 is the same as the opening direction of the wrench opening 211.
[0067] The drive gear 221 can drive the gear disk 212 to rotate, so as to drive the screwing head 210 to rotate.
[0068] In this embodiment, the drive gear 221 and the gear disk 212 are connected by a transmission gear 222. Since the size and mass of the gear disk 212 are both larger than those of the drive gear 221, when the drive gear 221 drives the gear disk 212 to rotate, the teeth in contact between the drive gear 221 and the gear disk 212 need to bear a large pressure, so that the teeth are easily worn. In this embodiment, by arranging two transmission gears 222, the drive gear 221 first drives the transmission gear 222 to rotate, and then drives the gear disk 212 to rotate, which is equivalent to increasing the contact area of the teeth of the drive gear 221 that occur simultaneously. And since the force required to drive the gear disk 212 remains unchanged, the pressure per unit area applied to the teeth of the drive gear 221 will also be reduced accordingly, so as to achieve the purpose of protecting the teeth of the drive gear 221.
[0069] Since the cable nut is usually tightened after the cable is threaded during assembly, how to avoid being affected by the protruding cable when tightening the cable nut is a problem that needs to be solved.
[0070] In this embodiment, the gear disk 212 and the screwing head 210 are coaxial, and the projection of the avoidance groove 213 on the horizontal plane should completely cover the wrench opening 211. In the process of the screwing head 210 tightening the cable nut, the cable protruding upward from the cable nut can protrude from the avoidance groove 213, and since the gear disk 212 and the screwing head 210 are coaxial, when the cable is at the bottom of the avoidance groove 213, it will not affect the rotation of the gear disk 212.
[0071] As Figures 1 - 4 shown, one end of the sliding table 201 is provided with a bearing part 202, and a plurality of support seats 240 are arranged on the bearing part 202. The gear disk 212 is rotatably arranged on the support seats 240. The bearing part 202 is used to make the gear disk 212 protrude from the sliding table 201, so as to ensure that there is enough space for the screwing head 210 to be connected to the gear disk 212 and perform the screwing action.
[0072] The bearing part 202 is provided with an avoidance notch one 204, and the opening direction of the avoidance notch one 204 is the same as the opening directions of the avoidance groove 213 and the wrench opening 211. The avoidance notch one 204 is used for the cable to pass through.
[0073] Furthermore, since a part of the gear disk 212 protrudes from the sliding table 201, the gear disk 212 will be exposed during operation. In order to prevent the teeth of the gear disk 212 from being damaged, a protective shell 203 is sleeved outside the screwing device. The protective shell 203 is provided with an avoidance notch two 205, and the projection of the avoidance notch two 205 on the horizontal plane should cover the projection of the wrench opening 211 on the horizontal plane.
[0074] Specifically as Figures 4 - 7 shown, a convex ring part 214 protrudes downward from the periphery of the gear disk 212, and a rack 215 is formed on the outer side wall of the convex ring part 214.
[0075] In this embodiment, a total of five support seats 240 are provided, and limiting rollers 242 are arranged on the support seats 240.
[0076] And the support seats 240 are arranged in a ring shape. When the gear disk 212 is arranged on the support seats 240, the limiting rollers 242 will abut against the inner side walls of different positions of the convex ring part 214. While ensuring that the gear disk 212 can rotate on the support seats 240, the limiting rollers 242 at different positions will jointly limit the horizontal displacement of the gear disk 212, so as to ensure that the gear disk 212 can rotate stably at the designed position and drive the screwing head 210 to perform the screwing action.
[0077] Further, a support roller 241 is provided on the support base 240, and the support roller 241 abuts against the lower end surface of the gear disk 212, enabling the gear disk 212 to rotate on the support base 240.
[0078] As Figures 1 - 5 shown, the screwing head 210 and the gear disk 212 are connected by a connecting member 216.
[0079] A through groove 217 is formed on the connecting member 216. The upper end of the through groove 217 is connected to the avoidance groove 213, and the lower end of the through groove 217 communicates with the wrench opening 211.
[0080] Due to the provision of the connecting member 216, the distance between the screwing head 210 and the gear disk 212 is increased. The through groove 217 is used to provide sufficient space for the cable to pass through. By increasing the distance between the wrench opening 211 and the avoidance groove 213, the position of the cable can be better restricted, and the inclination angle of the cable can be reduced.
[0081] Specifically as Figure 7 shown, a groove 218 is formed at the lower end of the gear disk 212. The upper end of the connecting member 216 can be placed into the groove 218, and the upper end of the connecting member 216 is connected to the gear disk 212 by a bolt. The groove 218 can facilitate the determination of the position of the groove 218, thereby facilitating the connection of the connecting member 216 and the gear disk 212 by a bolt.
[0082] The lower end of the connecting member 216 is connected to the screwing head 210 by a bolt.
[0083] As Figures 1 - 8 shown, the horizontal displacement assembly 230 includes:
[0084] A first driving cylinder 231, and a push rod 232 of the first driving cylinder 231 is connected to the sliding table 201;
[0085] A slide rail 233, the length direction of which is the same as the opening direction of the wrench opening 211;
[0086] A sliding seat 234, which is slidably arranged on the slide rail 233;
[0087] When the first driving cylinder 231 works, through the cooperation of the slide rail 233 and the sliding seat 234, the sliding table 201 can only make a reciprocating linear movement along the opening direction of the wrench opening 211, so as to facilitate the wrench opening 211 to be sleeved outside the cable nut.
[0088] As Figures 1 - 8As shown, the horizontal displacement assembly 230 and the sliding table 201 are arranged on the lifting plate 251. A plurality of positioning rods 252 are arranged on the mounting frame 200. The lifting plate 251 is threaded through the positioning rods 252, and the lifting plate 251 can move up and down along the positioning rods 252.
[0089] A height adjustment assembly 250 is arranged below the lifting plate 251. The height adjustment assembly 250 can change the height of the lifting plate 251, and thus can adjust the height of the screwing head 210, facilitating the screwing head 210 to match the positions of the cable bolts on workpieces of different sizes.
[0090] In this embodiment, the height adjustment assembly 250 includes a second driving cylinder 253 and a lead screw 254. The lower end of the lead screw 254 is rotatably connected to the second driving cylinder 253, and the upper end of the lead screw 254 is rotatably fixed on the mounting frame 200.
[0091] A connecting rod 256 is connected to the lower end of the lifting plate 251. A connecting plate 257 is connected to the bottom end of the connecting rod 256. A return device 258 is arranged on the connecting plate 257. The lead screw 254 is threaded through the return device 258.
[0092] When the second driving cylinder 253 drives the lead screw 254 to rotate, the connecting plate 257 can be driven to move up and down along the lead screw 254 through the return device 258, thereby driving the lifting plate 251 to move up and down.
[0093] As Figures 1 - 8 shown, a positioning convex portion 255 is formed on the lifting plate 251;
[0094] When the sliding seat 234 is installed on the sliding table 201, one side of the sliding seat 234 can abut against the positioning convex portion 255, facilitating the installation of the sliding seat 234.
