Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cable processing, in particular to drying equipment for producing and processing drag chain cables. Background Art

[0002] Drag chain cables are specialized cables designed for dynamic bending and reciprocating motion. They are widely used in industrial automation, robotics, CNC machine tools, and other applications where the cable moves frequently along the drag chain (cable protection chain). Their core features include high flexibility, resistance to bending, torsion, and abrasion, ensuring stable power or signal transmission under long-term mechanical stress.

[0003] For example, the Chinese patent publication number is CN220856221U, which is a drying equipment for the production and processing of drag chain cables. When drying the cables in this way, the contact position between the cables and the limit blocks cannot be well contacted with the hot air, which will cause uneven drying. In response to this situation, a drying equipment for the production and processing of drag chain cables is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, an embodiment of the present invention provides a drying device for the production and processing of drag chain cables, which solves the problem of uneven cable drying mentioned in the background technology.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Example:

[0021] See also Figure 1-4 A drying device for producing and processing drag chain cables includes a base plate 1 and a drying shell 2. The drying shell 2 is arranged above the base plate 1 and is fixedly mounted above the base plate 1. The base plate 1 is also provided with two symmetrically arranged conveyor belts 3, which are driven by the same transmission roller 4. The conveyor belts 3 are provided with a transmission mechanism, which is used to place the drag chain cables to be dried.

[0022] Refer to the attached Figure 1 , wherein a part of the upper end of the conveyor belt 3 is located inside the drying shell 2, and the conveyor belt 3 drives the conveyor frame 7 to move through the drying shell 2. A toggle shaft 14 is provided between the two conveyor belts 3 in the drying shell 2. The position of the toggle shaft 14 corresponds to the position of the toggle arc groove 15. When the support plate 10 moves, the toggle shaft 14 will drive the support plate 10 to rotate slightly through the toggle arc groove 15. The conveyor frame 7 drives the drag chain cable to move through the transmission action of the conveyor belt 3, and during the movement, it will pass through the inside of the drying shell 2.

[0023] Refer to the attached Figure 3 -Attached Figure 4 When the support plate 10 moves, the toggle arc groove 15 on the support plate 10 allows the toggle shaft 14 to enter. Since the toggle shaft 14 is fixed and the support plate 10 can rotate relative to the transmission frame 7, the support plate 10 can rotate under the action of the toggle shaft 14. When the support plate 10 continues to move, the toggle shaft 14 will disengage from the toggle arc groove 15 on the support plate 10.

[0024] Refer to the attached Figure 2 The transmission mechanism includes a transmission frame 7, which is equipped with multiple shaking groups. The shaking groups are composed of multiple arc-shaped support plates 10. The multiple support plates 10 in the same group are connected to each other by connecting rods 16. The bottom surface of the support plates 10 is provided with a toggle arc groove 15. The function of the connecting rod 16 is to rotate any support plate 10 when the toggle shaft 14 drives the toggle arc groove 15 to rotate. It will also drive the entire shaking group where the support plate 10 is located to rotate, thereby performing multiple-stage frequent rotation of the cable, so that it can be dried evenly.

[0025] Both ends of the shaking group are provided with anti-slip plates 12, and the end of the shaking group is provided with a rotating shaft 8, and the outer wall of the rotating shaft 8 is provided with a torsion spring 9. Due to the provision of the torsion spring 9, when the support plate 10 rotates, it relies on its own gravity and the support plate 10 will not reset at this time, which will affect the subsequent drying process. However, the provision of the torsion spring 9 can reset the support plate 10 after the support plate 10 rotates, facilitating the subsequent rotation of the support plate 10.

[0026] A limiting arc rod 11 is provided above the support plate 10. The limiting arc rods 11 above the multiple support plates 10 are fixedly connected by a fixing rod 13. The limiting arc rod 11 and the support plate 10 are connected by a hinge. A buckle is provided between the end of the limiting arc rod 11 away from the hinge and the support plate 10. The drag chain cable is placed between the limiting arc rod 11 and the support plate 10 during drying. The setting of the limiting arc rod 11 can prevent the drag chain cable from sliding out of the support plate 10 when rotating. Moreover, the setting of the hinge and the fixing rod 13 allows the cable to be prevented from being prevented from being on the support plate 10 by rotating the limiting arc rod 11, and then the cable is prevented from being on the support plate 10, and then connected to the support plate 10 by the buckle on the limiting arc rod 11.

[0027] A hot air blower 5 is provided above the drying housing 2. The hot air generated by the hot air blower 5 is passed into the drying housing 2 through the transmission pipe 6. The hot air is used to dry the drag chain cable in the transmission mechanism. The hot air blower 5 is a preferred drying method and can be replaced by other existing drying methods.

[0028] The hot air generated by the hot air blower 5 is introduced into the drying housing 2 through the transmission pipe 6, and then the cable is dried by the hot air.
