[0023] As Figures 1 - 4 shown, an automatic stop device for wire breakage in a stranding machine includes a travel switch 3 provided on one side of the stranding machine 1. The travel switch 3 is electrically connected to the power switch of the stranding machine 1. After the travel switch 3 is triggered, the travel switch 3 will turn off the power switch of the stranding machine 1. A lever 8 is fixedly provided on the output end of the travel switch 3. A transmission component 7 for transmitting a transmission signal to the travel switch 3 is provided on the lever 8.

The fastening mechanism 6 is arranged around the metal stranded wire 2; when a single wire on the metal stranded wire 2 breaks, the broken single wire will be dragged outward by the centrifugal force under the action of the rotating metal stranded wire 2, so as to facilitate the broken single wire to squeeze and push the fastening mechanism 6. The fastening mechanism 6 displaces under the action of the broken single wire, thereby dragging the transmission component 7. The transmission component 7 drives the lever 8 on the travel switch 3 to displace. The lever 8 triggers the travel switch 3, and the power switch of the stranding machine 1 is turned off through the travel switch 3, so as to achieve the effect of automatic stop for wire breakage. The overall composition cost of the device is relatively low. Through the fastening mechanism 6 arranged around the metal stranded wire 2, the device has high sensitivity and is convenient to use.

[0024] In some specific embodiments, in order to monitor the state of the metal stranded wire 2, the fastening mechanism 6 includes a fastening ring 601, and the fastening ring 601 is fastened around the metal stranded wire 2; during use, the fastening ring 601 is fastened on the metal stranded wire 2, which is convenient for installation. The moving metal stranded wire 2 rotates under the action of the stranding machine 1 to realize the stranding and movement of multiple single wires. When a single wire in the metal stranded wire 2 breaks, the broken single wire will drive the fastening ring 601 to move, so as to trigger the travel switch 3 and realize the monitoring of the state of the metal stranded wire 2.

[0025] In some specific embodiments, in order to trigger the travel switch 3, the transmission assembly 7 includes a metal wire, which can be a copper wire. One end of the metal wire is connected to the guide plate 9 in a matching manner, and the other end is connected to the fastening ring 601 in a matching manner; when the broken single wire drives the fastening ring 601 to move, the fastening ring 601 will drive the transmission assembly 7 to displace, thereby driving the guide plate 9 to displace, and further triggering the travel switch 3 to complete the shutdown effect.

[0026] In some specific embodiments, in order to ensure the stability of the fastening ring 601 during implementation and ensure that the metal stranded wire 2 does not contact the inner wall of the fastening ring 601 during processing, a bracket 5 is provided below the fastening ring 601. The upper end of the bracket 5 is fixedly connected to the guide plate 9, and a guide groove 10 is provided on the guide plate 9. The bottom of the fastening ring 601 is fixedly connected with a slider 602 that is slidably matched with the guide groove 10, and a roller 603 that is matched with the guide groove 10 is provided at the bottom of the slider 602. The slider 602 can slide along the guide groove 10, so as to facilitate the movement of the fastening ring 601; after the fastening ring 601 is installed, the processed metal stranded wire 2 will pass through the inside of the fastening ring 601, and the bracket 5 will support the fastening ring 601 to ensure the stability of the fastening ring 601 and prevent the fastening ring 601 from shifting and contacting the metal stranded wire 2, affecting the use effect.

[0027] In some specific embodiments, in order to reduce the influence of the travel switch 3 on the installation process of the metal stranded wire 2, a fixing mechanism 4 is provided at the bottom of the travel switch 3. The fixing mechanism 4 includes a hinged base 401 fixedly connected to the base of the stranding machine 1, and the travel switch 3 is movably hinged to the hinged base 401. A locking assembly for fixing the travel switch 3 is provided on the hinged base 401; when installing the metal stranded wire 2, the travel switch 3 can be laid down along the hinged base 401, so as to leave enough operating space for the operator installing the metal stranded wire 2, which is more convenient to use. When the travel switch 3 needs to be used, the travel switch 3 can be erected and fixed by the locking assembly to maintain the working state of the travel switch 3.

[0028] In some specific embodiments, in order to fix the travel switch 3, the locking assembly includes a support frame 402 fixedly connected to the hinge base 401. A threaded rod 403 is rotatably connected to the support frame 402. The threaded rod 403 is horizontally arranged on the support frame 402, and the thread directions on both sides of the threaded rod 403 are opposite. Fixed grippers 404 that cooperate with the travel switch 3 are threadedly connected to both sides of the threaded rod 403. The fixed grippers 404 are slidably engaged with the support frame 402. One end of the threaded rod 403 is fixedly connected to a knob 405. When it is necessary to connect the travel switch 3 to the transmission assembly 7, the laid-down travel switch 3 can be rotated along the hinge point of the hinge base 401 so that one side of the travel switch 3 abuts against the support frame 402. Rotate the knob 405, and the knob 405 drives the threaded rod 403 to rotate. The threaded rod 403 drives the fixed grippers 404 on both sides to approach each other, and fixes the travel switch 3 between the two sets of fixed grippers 404, thereby facilitating the connection and cooperation with the transmission assembly 7.

[0029] To facilitate the understanding of the embodiments of this solution by those skilled in the art, the working principle of the embodiments of this solution will be described below in combination with specific application scenarios:

After the fastening ring 601 is installed, the processed metal stranded wire 2 passes through the inside of the fastening ring 601. The bracket 5 supports the fastening ring 601 to ensure the stability of the fastening ring 601 and prevent the fastening ring 601 from shifting and contacting the metal stranded wire 2, which may affect the use effect. The moving metal stranded wire 2 rotates under the action of the stranding machine 1 to realize the stranding and movement of multiple single wires. When a single wire of the metal stranded wire 2 breaks, the broken single wire will drive the fastening ring 601 to move along the guide groove 10. The fastening ring 601 will drive the displacement of the transmission assembly 7, thereby driving the displacement of the guide plate 9, and then triggering the travel switch 3 to complete the shutdown effect. The overall composition cost of the device is relatively low. Through the fastening ring 601 arranged around the metal stranded wire 2, the device has high sensitivity and is convenient to use;

[0031] When installing the metal stranded wire 2, the travel switch 3 can be laid down along the hinge base 401, thereby leaving enough operating space for the operator installing the metal stranded wire 2 and making it more convenient to use. When it is necessary to connect the travel switch 3 to the transmission assembly 7, the laid-down travel switch 3 can be rotated along the hinge point of the hinge base 401 so that one side of the travel switch 3 abuts against the support frame 402. Rotate the knob 405, and the knob 405 drives the threaded rod 403 to rotate. The threaded rod 403 drives the fixed grippers 404 on both sides to approach each other, and fixes the travel switch 3 between the two sets of fixed grippers 404, thereby facilitating the connection and cooperation with the transmission assembly 7.
