Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wire take-up devices, in particular to a wire take-up device applied to a wire cutting machine. Background Art

[0002] In traditional wire harness processing, after the wire cutter completes cutting, the wire harness typically falls freely from the outlet to the ground or collection area. Due to the lack of effective guiding and take-up mechanisms, the wire harnesses are prone to friction and collision with the workbench or equipment components during the falling process, resulting in loose distribution of the wire harnesses on the workbench and some wire harnesses being bent. These bent wires need to be manually straightened one by one and the ends of the wire harnesses must be aligned before they can be bundled, which affects wire harness production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the background technology, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a wire taking-up device applied to a wire cutting machine, comprising a wire cutting machine and a wire taking-up mechanism, the wire taking-up mechanism being arranged at the wire outlet end of the wire cutting machine, the wire taking-up mechanism comprising a fixed frame, and a conveyor belt, a movable seat, a transmission mechanism and a clamping cylinder arranged on the fixed frame, the fixed frame being located at the upper and lower sides of the wire outlet end and respectively provided with a conveyor belt and a movable seat, a wire taking-up groove for placing the wire harness being provided on the outside of the fixed frame, the fixed frame being slidably connected to the movable seat through a transmission mechanism, and the movable seat moving back and forth between the conveyor belt and the wire taking-up groove, and a clamping cylinder for clamping the wire harness being connected to the bottom of the movable seat.

[0004] By adopting the above technical solution, when the wire cutting machine sends the cut wire harness out from the outlet end, the head end of the wire harness falls to the conveyor belt due to the action of gravity. The linear speed of the conveyor belt and the wire cutting machine is the same, so that the wire harness remains in a vertical state when moving outward as a whole; when the tail end of the wire harness is about to come out from the outlet end, the tail end of the wire harness is clamped by the clamping cylinder, and the moving seat moves quickly toward the direction of the wire take-up trough, and the wire harness is released after an emergency stop. Since the moving seat gives the tail end of the wire harness a force toward the wire take-up trough, when the tail end of the wire harness falls into the wire take-up trough, the principle of inertia is used to make the wire harness gradually move from tail to head into the wire take-up trough, thereby realizing the function of automatic wire take-up and ensuring that all wire harnesses entering the wire take-up trough are roughly in a vertical state. There is no need to manually straighten the wire harness, which facilitates the packaging of the wire harness into bundles, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0005] The utility model is further configured as follows: the transmission mechanism includes a transmission cylinder, an optical axis and a bearing seat; the fixed frame is threadedly connected to the transmission cylinder and the bearing seat; the output end of the transmission cylinder is fixedly connected to the movable seat; and the movable seat is slidably connected to the bearing seat through the optical axis.

[0006] Furthermore, the fixed frame is provided with an inner plate, a bottom plate, an outer plate and an extension plate, the inner plate and the outer plate are distributed parallel to both sides of the bottom plate, the conveyor belt is arranged between the inner plate and the outer plate, the extension plate is fixedly connected to the outer plate, and the extension plate and the outer plate are combined to form the wire collection groove.

[0007] Furthermore, the transmission cylinder and the bearing seat are connected above the inner plate, and the bearing seats are distributed in parallel on both sides of the transmission cylinder.

[0008] With the above technical solution, the transmission cylinder cooperates with the guide structure of the optical axis to ensure that the moving seat moves smoothly in a straight line, the upper surface of the conveyor belt is not lower than the upper surface of the outer plate, and the extension plate is a plate with an L-shaped cross-section, so that the horizontal height of the wire trough is lower than the upper surface of the conveyor belt, ensuring that the wire harness falls naturally into the wire trough without jamming or accumulation.

[0009] The utility model is further configured such that a partition is provided between the inner side plate and the conveyor belt.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, a partition covers one end of the conveyor belt to form a physical isolation barrier. When workers grab the stacked wire harnesses, their limbs or clothes are prevented from being caught in the gaps of the conveyor belt, thereby protecting the personal safety of the workers.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that a scale is provided on one side of the extension plate.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the approximate length of the wire harness in the wire trough can be checked by a ruler. If the staff finds that the wire length is incorrect, the cutting machine will be stopped in time to reduce material loss.

[0013] The utility model is further configured such that an adapter plate is provided on the side of the movable seat facing the wire outlet end, the clamping cylinder is connected to the movable seat via the adapter plate, and the clamping cylinder transfers the wire harness at the wire outlet end to the wire receiving groove.

[0014] Furthermore, a rubber plate is provided at the output end of the clamping cylinder.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, an adapter plate is added to the side of the movable seat close to the outlet end, so that the installation position of the clamping cylinder is closer to the outlet end, shortening the clamping stroke, and the two sets of output ends of the clamping cylinder both have a 90° rotating opening and closing action, and the wire harness is clamped by the rubber plate to protect the surface of the wire harness.

[0024] like Figure 1 、 2 As shown, the utility model discloses a wire taking-up device for a wire cutting machine, comprising a wire cutting machine 1 and a wire taking-up mechanism 2, the wire taking-up mechanism 2 being arranged at the wire outlet 11 of the wire cutting machine 1, the wire taking-up mechanism 2 comprising a fixed frame 3, and a conveyor belt 4, a movable seat 5, a transmission mechanism 6 and a clamping cylinder 7 arranged on the fixed frame 3, the fixed frame 3 is located on the upper and lower sides of the wire outlet 11 and is respectively provided with a conveyor belt 4 and a movable seat 5, a wire taking-up groove 12 for placing the wire harness is provided on the outside of the fixed frame 3, the fixed frame 3 is slidably connected to the movable seat 5 through the transmission mechanism 6, and the movable seat 5 moves back and forth between the conveyor belt 4 and the wire taking-up groove 12, and the bottom of the movable seat 5 is connected to a clamping cylinder 7 for clamping the wire harness.

[0025] Combine Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the transmission mechanism 6 includes a transmission cylinder 61, an optical axis 62 and a bearing seat 63. The fixed frame 3 is threadedly connected to the transmission cylinder 61 and the bearing seat 63. The output end of the transmission cylinder 61 is fixedly connected to the movable seat 5, and the movable seat 5 is slidably connected to the bearing seat 63 through the optical axis 62. The fixed frame 3 is provided with an inner plate 31, a bottom plate 32, an outer plate 33 and an extension plate 34. The inner plate 31 and the outer plate 33 are distributed in parallel on both sides of the bottom plate 32. The conveyor belt 4 is provided between the inner plate 31 and the outer plate 33. The extension plate 34 is fixedly connected to the outer plate 33, and the extension plate 34 and the outer plate 33 are combined to form a wire take-up groove 12. The transmission cylinder 61 and the bearing seat 63 are connected above the inner plate 31, and the bearing seats 63 are distributed parallel to both sides of the transmission cylinder 61. The inner plate 31 is provided with a partition 35 between the outlet end 11 and the conveyor belt 4, and a scale 36 is provided on one side of the extension plate 34.

[0026] Combine Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, an adapter plate 8 is provided on the side of the movable base 5 facing the outlet terminal 11, and the clamping cylinder 7 is connected to the movable base 5 through the adapter plate 8. The clamping cylinder 7 transfers the wire harness at the outlet terminal 11 to the wire receiving groove 12. A rubber plate 9 is provided at the output end of the clamping cylinder 7.

[0027] The working principle of the present invention is that when the wire cutting machine 1 sends the cut wire harness 100 out from the outlet 11, the head end of the wire harness 100 naturally falls to the conveyor belt 4 across the partition 35 due to the action of gravity. Since the linear speed of the conveyor belt 4 and the transmission wheel of the wire cutting machine 1 are the same, the wire harness 100 as a whole remains in a vertical state when moving outward; when the tail end of the wire harness 100 is about to come out from the outlet 11, the tail end of the wire harness 100 is clamped by the clamping cylinder 7, and the moving seat 5 moves quickly toward the direction of the wire receiving groove 12. Move, after the moving seat 5 stops suddenly, the clamping cylinder 7 releases the wire harness 100. Since the moving seat 5 gives the tail end of the wire harness 100 a force toward the wire take-up groove 12, when the tail end of the wire harness 100 falls into the wire take-up groove 12, the principle of inertia is used to make the wire harness 100 gradually move from the tail to the head into the wire take-up groove 12, thereby realizing the function of automatic wire take-up and ensuring that all wire harnesses 100 entering the wire take-up groove 12 are roughly in a vertical state. There is no need to manually straighten the wire harness 100, which makes it convenient for the staff to pack the wire harness 100 into bundles.

Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
