However, as the height of the lifting mechanism changes, the length requirement of the wiring system (mainly cables or wires) also changes, so some cable management tools are needed. The retractable cable device is an efficient cable management tool, but the current retractable cable device is randomly wound when retracting the cable, which makes it easy to get stuck, and the multiple windings result in a larger external size. In view of this, there is an urgent need to improve the existing retractable cable device. Utility Model Content

[0033] Reference Figure 1-3 , this embodiment relates to a single-layer winding and retracting device, which is used for releasing and retracting the wiring required by some lifting mechanisms; specifically, the single-layer winding and retracting device of the present application includes: a housing component 1, a winding component 2 and a drive component 3; the winding component 2 and the drive component 3 are both arranged inside the housing component 1; the winding component 2 includes a winding wheel 21, a cable drum base wheel 22, a lead screw 23, and a slip ring 24; the winding wheel 21 includes a connecting groove 212 and a fixing portion 213, the fixing portion 213 is arranged on the inner side of the winding wheel 21, the cable drum base wheel 22 is arranged at one end of the winding wheel 21 and there is freedom of axial linear motion between the winding wheel 21 and the cable drum base wheel 22, the screw 23 is installed on the inner side of the other end of the winding wheel 21 and is threadedly connected to the winding wheel 21, and the slip ring 24 is transmission-connected to the cable drum base wheel 22; the driving assembly 3 includes a motor 31 and a harmonic gear reducer 32, the motor 31 is fixed on the inner side of the housing assembly 1, the harmonic gear reducer 32 is installed on the output shaft of the motor 31, and the harmonic gear reducer 32 is connected to the cable drum base wheel 22.

[0034] In some embodiments, as Figure 4-5 As shown, protrusions 211 are provided on both sides of the winding wheel 21, and the protrusions 211 ensure that the cable is wound on the winding wheel 21 to prevent the cable from falling out; a channel is formed between the connecting groove 212 and the protrusion 211 on one side, and the channel is used for the cable to pass through.

[0035] It should be noted that when the device is in use, one end of the cable is fixed to the fixed part 213, the cable passes through the channel and the shell assembly 1, and the other end is connected to the lifting mechanism; when the device is working, the driving assembly 3 drives the cable drum base wheel 22 to rotate, and the rotation of the cable drum base wheel 22 drives the winding wheel 21 to perform spiral motion on the screw 23; the cable is attached to the surface of the winding wheel 21 as the winding wheel 21 rotates, and the cable performs spiral motion as the winding wheel 21, and the pitch of the screw 23 is equal to the diameter of the cable, and the axial displacement of the winding wheel 21 per rotation is the diameter of the wound cable, ensuring orderly single-layer spiral winding during the cable winding process, avoiding random winding of the cable and causing cable jamming; at the same time, it also avoids the problem of large external dimensions caused by multi-layer winding.

[0036] In some embodiments, as Figure 1-2 As shown, the housing assembly 1 includes a base 11, a fixed frame 12, a rain cover 13, a protective cover 14 and a mounting plate 15. The base 11 is provided with a fixed frame 12, and rain covers 13 are installed at both ends of the fixed frame 12. A cable opening 131 is opened at one end of the rain cover 13, and the cable enters the winding assembly 2 through the cable opening 131; the protective cover 14 is arranged on one side of the fixed frame 12, and the mounting plate 15 is arranged on the other side of the fixed frame 12. The device can be fixed by a fixing member (not shown) passing through the mounting plate 15 and the lifting mechanism.

[0037] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the winding assembly 2 also includes a guide wheel 25, and support seats 251 are provided at both ends of the guide wheel 25. The guide wheel 25 can rotate relative to the support seat 251, and the support seat 251 is installed on the base 11; specifically, the guide wheel 25 is installed on the outside of the cable opening 131, and the cable can enter the winding assembly 2 through the guide wheel 25. The purpose is to assist the device to complete the action of retracting the cable and ensure that the cable stably enters the winding assembly 2 from the cable opening 131.

[0038] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, the harmonic gear reducer 32 includes a fixed rigid wheel 321, a flexible wheel 322, a wave generator 323, an output rigid wheel 324, an output portion 325 and a shell cover 326; the wave generator 323 is mounted on the output shaft of the motor 31, the wave generator 323 is arranged inside the flexible wheel 322, the flexible wheel 322 is meshed and connected with the fixed rigid wheel 321, the output rigid wheel 324 is meshed and connected with the flexible wheel 322, the output portion 325 is fixedly connected with the output rigid wheel 324, and the shell cover 326 is fixed to the side of the fixed rigid wheel 321 close to the output portion 325, and the shell cover 326 is used to provide support for the output portion 325.

[0039] Specifically, a flexible bearing is provided between the wave generator 323 and the flexible spline 322. The output shaft of the motor 31 drives the wave generator 323 to rotate at high speed, and the circumference is engaged with the fixed rigid wheel 321 in turn. The fixed rigid wheel 321 is an internal gear, and the flexible spline 322 is a thin-walled cylindrical external gear. The flexible spline 322 is relatively easy to deform, and the shape of the flexible spline 322 changes as the wave generator 323 rotates. The number of teeth of the fixed rigid wheel 321 is greater than the number of teeth of the flexible spline 322. The low-speed rotation of the flexible spline 322 is achieved by relying on the difference in the number of teeth between the flexible spline 322 and the fixed rigid wheel 321. At the same time, since the number of teeth of the output rigid wheel 324 is equal to the number of teeth of the flexible spline 322, the output rigid wheel 324 and the flexible spline 322 move synchronously. Therefore, the output rigid wheel 324 drives the output part 325 to rotate at a low speed.

[0040] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the motor 31 is provided with a motor frame 311, and the motor 31 is installed on the inner side of the fixed frame 12 through the motor frame 311; at the same time, the fixed wheel 321 is fixed on the outer shell of the motor 31 to further lock the motor 31. The fixed wheel 321 remains stationary when the device is working.

[0041] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the screw 23 is a hollow screw 23, the drive assembly 3 is installed inside the screw 23, and an end cover 231 is provided at one end of the screw 23. The end cover 231 is fixed to the inner side of the fixed frame 12 through the motor frame 311, so that the screw 23 remains stable during operation and prevents shaking.

[0042] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a mounting hole is provided on one side of the fixed frame 12, and the slip ring 24 is inserted into the protective cover 14 through the mounting hole; the slip ring 24 is used to transmit power, signals and data in the present device, and can continuously transmit power and signals during rotation without twisting the wires; specifically, the slip ring 24 is mainly composed of two major parts, a rotating part and a stationary part, the rotating part is transmission-connected to the cable drum base wheel 22, the cable drum base wheel 22 drives the rotating part of the slip ring 24 to rotate, and the stationary part is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed frame 12; at the same time, the slip ring 24 ensures that when the winding wheel 21 makes a spiral motion on the lead screw 23 (that is, the cable is in the winding process), the winding wheel 21 has enough space to complete a single-layer winding; the slip ring 24 is directly obtained from the prior art, and its structure is not specifically described in this application, but it does not mean that it cannot be implemented.

[0043] In some embodiments, as Figure 7 As shown, the device also includes a connector 4, which is installed at the bottom of the protective cover 14. There are two connectors 4, one of which is electrically connected to the slip ring to transmit cable signals, and the other connector is used to provide power and control signals to the motor, while ensuring the stability and safety of power transmission.

[0044] The implementation principle of this utility model is:

[0045] In the present technical solution, one end of the cable is fixed to the fixing portion 213 of the winding wheel 21, the cable passes through the connecting groove 212, and the other end is connected to the lifting mechanism. The cable drum base wheel 22 is driven to rotate by the driving component 3, so that the winding wheel 21 fixed to the cable drum base wheel 22 rotates, and the winding wheel 21 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 23, and the winding wheel 21 performs a spiral motion. In this way, the cable also performs a spiral motion with the winding wheel 21, ensuring a single-layer spiral winding during the cable winding process, avoiding random winding of the cable and causing cable jamming; at the same time, it also avoids the problem of large external dimensions caused by multi-layer winding.

[0046] In this technical solution, a harmonic gear reducer 32 is provided to achieve a deceleration effect through the interaction of components such as the flexible spline 322, the fixed rigid wheel 321 and the wave generator 323; when the motor 31 drives the wave generator 323 to rotate, the flexible spline 322 is squeezed by the wave generator 323 to produce elastic deformation, and then engages with the fixed rigid wheel 321, and deceleration is achieved by relying on the difference in the number of teeth; the harmonic gear reducer 32 converts the high-speed rotation of the motor 31 into the low-speed and high-torque rotation required by the winding assembly 2, ensuring that the cable can be wound on the winding wheel 21 stably and orderly.

[0047] The above is merely an embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications and variations of the present invention are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention are intended to be within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
