[0030] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein the accompanying drawings constitute a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0031] A cable sleeve hot stamping ring marking device in this embodiment relates to the field of automotive wiring harness technology. A mold is used to form an embossing hole body, which can act on a ribbon 210 to print a ring mark on the cable sleeve 300.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 7In this embodiment, a cable sleeve hot stamping ring marking device includes a die assembly 100 and a conveyor assembly 200. The die assembly 100 can press the cable sleeve 300 from both sides. The conveyor assembly 200 can move a ribbon 210 between the cable sleeve and the die assembly 100, printing the color of the ribbon 210 onto the cable sleeve 300.

[0033] The die assembly 100 includes an upper die 110 and a lower die 120 that can move relative to each other. A groove body 130 is respectively provided on the upper die 110 and the lower die 120 and is arranged relative to the cable sleeve 300. The groove body 130 passes through the upper die 110 and the lower die 120, and the cross-section of the groove body 130 is a semicircular shape that is adapted to the cable sleeve 300.

[0034] The conveyor assembly 200 includes a movable ribbon 210 that is fed forward. After the ribbon 210 is used for a period of time, it is automatically fed forward to restore the dyeing effect of the ribbon 210. The two ribbons 210 are respectively placed in the two compartments formed between the upper and lower molds 110, 120 and the cable sleeve 300.

[0035] The die assembly 100 has an open die state and a pressed die state. In the open die state, there is a gap between the upper die 110 and the lower die 120, and a certain distance is maintained between the sleeve and the die. The ribbon 210 can be freely conveyed and the position adjusted, avoiding friction between the ribbon 210 and the sleeve and ensuring the integrity of the ribbon 210.

[0036] In the die pressing state, the upper die 110 and the lower die 120 move toward each other, pulling the two ribbons 210 toward each other until they engage, forming an embossed hole that fits the cable sleeve 300. The ribbon 210 is constrained within the embossed hole, and the sleeve is squeezed between the two ribbons 210. The dye from the ribbon 210 is transferred to the surface of the cable sleeve 300, ensuring that the ring mark is printed evenly on the sleeve surface, with accurate coverage.

[0037] In some embodiments, see Figures 3 to 6 The groove 130 is provided with a stamping block 131, which is embedded in the groove 130. The stamping block 131 is a semi-ring shaped block that matches the semi-circular groove 130. The stamping block 131 protrudes relative to the cable sleeve 300. The stamping blocks 131 of the two grooves 130 form a stamping ring for stamping the cable sleeve 300. The relatively protruding arrangement of the stamping blocks 131 allows sufficient pressure to be applied to the cable sleeve 300 during the molding process, ensuring that the dye in the ribbon 210 is firmly transferred to the sleeve surface and that the marking is not easily faded or blurred. The stamping ring ensures that the marking is evenly and accurately distributed across the entire circumference of the cable sleeve 300, so that the entire sleeve surface is covered with a consistent ring-shaped marking.

[0038] As a further embodiment, the inner diameter of the stamped hole body is larger than the outer diameter of the cable sleeve 300, which means that when the die is working, the sleeve will not directly contact the stamped hole body, but will contact the sleeve surface through the stamped ring. This can effectively prevent the main body of the stamped hole body from exerting excessive pressure or indentation on the sleeve surface, ensuring that the sleeve surface is not damaged or deformed.

[0039] The inner diameter of the embossing ring is consistent with the outer diameter of the cable sleeve 300. When the cable sleeve 300 enters the embossing ring, the ribbon 210 between the cable sleeve 300 and the embossing ring can be evenly and effectively squeezed to color the cable sleeve 300.

[0040] In some embodiments, the width of the stamping block 131 is smaller than the width of the ribbon 210, and the width of the ribbon 210 is larger: the width of the ribbon 210 is greater than the width of the stamping block 131. During the stamping process, the ribbon 210 will completely cover the surface of the cable sleeve 300 under the action of the stamping block 131, ensuring that the coverage area of ​​the mark will not be restricted.

[0041] The width of the stamping block 131 is smaller than the ribbon 210, and the length of the ribbon 210 is much larger than the stamping block 131. The ribbon 210 can completely cover the stamping block 131. Even if the ribbon 210 has some deviation during the feeding process, there is enough redundancy to ensure that the ribbon 210 fully covers the stamping block 131, ensuring the integrity of the mark and avoiding blurring or insufficiency of the local stamping area.

[0042] In a specific implementation, the stamping block 131 is a heat block that can heat itself to an appropriate temperature, allowing the dye in the ribbon 210 to be more effectively transferred to the surface of the cable sleeve 300 during the stamping process. The heat allows the dye in the ribbon 210 to more easily penetrate the sleeve surface, forming a clearer, more uniform, and more durable mark.

[0043] The heating effect of the hot pressing block can help soften the ribbon 210 material, making it easier for it to contact the surface of the cable sleeve 300 and transfer the dye, ensuring the clarity and stability of the mark, especially in complex marking processes, to avoid unclear marks or uneven dyes.

[0044] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6The upper mold 110 is tilted relative to one end of the ribbon 210 from both sides relative to the groove 130, forming a V-shaped inclined surface 111. The V-shaped inclined surface 111 can be separated from the ribbon 210. When the upper mold 110 and the lower mold 120 are closed, the groove 130 is relatively connected to form an embossed hole. The V-shaped inclined surfaces 111 are arranged relative to each other to form a wedge-shaped cavity. The wedge-shaped cavity is completely separated from the ribbon 210, preventing the upper mold 110 and the lower mold 120 from squeezing and damaging an excessively long section of the ribbon 210, thereby improving the utilization rate of the ribbon 210.

[0045] As a further embodiment, a relatively horizontal abutment surface 112 is provided between the V-shaped inclined surface 111 and the groove body 130. The abutment surface 112 provides a stable contact point so that the upper mold 110 and the lower mold 120 can be relatively firmly abutted, thereby avoiding the upper mold 110 and the lower mold 120 from being relatively misaligned under the action of pressure, causing the ribbon 210 to break.

[0046] The width of the abutment surface 112 is smaller than the inner diameter of the stamping hole. After the upper mold 110 and the lower mold 120 are closed, the ribbon 210 under pressure is located in the stamping hole and on the abutment surface 112, which is less than three times the inner diameter of the stamping hole. This can strictly limit the length of the ribbon 210 required for one printing mark, thereby determining the feeding length of the ribbon 210 at one time and effectively improving the utilization rate of the ribbon 210.

[0047] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 3 The die assembly 100 further includes a base 140 and a driver 150. The base 140 is a flat base structure. The lower die 120 is fixedly connected to the base 140. The driver 150 is fixedly connected to the base 140 via a bracket, so that the driver 150 is spaced apart from the lower die 120. The output end of the driver 150 is connected to the upper die 110. The driver 150 can drive the upper die 110 to move relative to the lower die 120 and dock with it. Under the action of the driver 150, the upper die 110 can move accurately and dock with the lower die 120. The movement trajectory of the lower die 120 is controlled by the driver 150. The upper die 110 and the lower die 120 can be precisely docked at a predetermined position and precision, ensuring accuracy during the stamping process.

[0048] The driving member 150 can automatically drive the upper mold 110 to move and dock with the lower mold 120, reducing the need for manual intervention and adjustment, making the entire stamping process automated, significantly improving production efficiency, and reducing the complexity and error rate of manual operations.

[0049] In a specific implementation process, the driving member 150 is a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder or an electric push rod, and the driving member 150 can drive the upper mold 110 to move in one direction.

[0050] In some embodiments, see Figure 7The conveyor assembly 200 further includes a conveyor unit 220, which includes a rotatable roller assembly 221. Two roller assemblies 221 are disposed on either side of the cable sleeve 300. The ribbon 210 is wound around the two roller assemblies 221. The rotatable roller assemblies 221 ensure that the ribbon 210 is smoothly conveyed through the conveyor unit 220. The roller assemblies 221 provide a uniform and stable propulsion force for the ribbon 210, preventing the ribbon 210 from slipping, stagnating, or moving irregularly during feeding.

[0051] The roller assembly 221 can evenly adjust the tension of the ribbon 210, preventing the ribbon 210 from becoming loose or over-tightened due to uneven tension. Stable tension helps ensure that the ribbon 210 remains consistent during the imprinting process, avoiding unclear or uneven marking caused by uneven tension.

[0052] The rotation of the roller assembly 221 can be adjusted as needed to control the feed rate of the ribbon 210. By precisely controlling the feed rate, the ribbon 210 can be ensured to run smoothly during the imprinting process, avoiding uneven marking caused by the ribbon 210 running too fast or too slow.

[0053] In some embodiments, a cable sleeve hot stamping ring marking device also includes a conveying pipe assembly, which is specifically a cable conveyor. The cable sleeve 300 is clamped in the cable conveyor. The cable conveyor can push the cable sleeve 300 to feed and move as needed. The cable conveyor can be used in conjunction with the die assembly 100 to complete the marking of the cable sleeve 300.

[0054] Workflow: First, the cable conveyor is activated, driving the cable sleeve 300 forward a certain distance. The driver 150 moves the upper die 110 relative to the lower die 120. The upper die 110 pulls the ribbon 210 relative to the cable sleeve 300, creating a circular mark on the embossed hole. The upper die 110 opens relative to the lower die 120, and the cable sleeve 300 is fed a certain distance. The ribbon 210 is then fed a certain distance. The upper and lower dies 110 and 120 are then reclosed, completing the circular marking of the cable sleeve 300.

[0055] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or replacements that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with this technical field within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be covered by the present invention.
