Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of flat copper wire forming equipment, and in particular relates to a wire grabbing mechanism for flat copper wire. Background Art

[0002] When forming flat copper wire, the wire grabbing assembly and forming assembly in the flat copper wire forming equipment ensure the effective grabbing and forming of the flat copper wire through precise coordination and cooperation.

[0003] Under the control of the system, the wire grabbing assembly first positions the flat copper wire, usually using sensors to detect the position of the copper wire, and then clamps the flat copper wire through a clamping structure. After successful grasping, the wire grabbing assembly will move the copper wire to the position of the forming assembly. The forming assembly then uses a robotic arm, slider or other forming tools to apply force to the copper wire to perform bending, flattening or other forming operations.

[0004] However, for existing wire-grabbing components, when meeting different subsequent forming requirements (such as bending forming, height difference forming), it is impossible to make the clamped flat copper wire form different horizontal positions. The subsequent forming equipment still needs to adjust its height value again to achieve the forming effect. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above defects, the utility model provides a wire grabbing mechanism for flat copper wires, which is installed at the cutting and wiring mechanism of the flat copper wire forming device and is used to grab and release the bottom flat copper wire;

[0006] It includes a wire grabbing mounting plate, with mounting bars installed at both ends of the bottom of the wire grabbing mounting plate. A thin cylinder for adjusting the position of the mounting bar is installed on the top of the wire grabbing mounting plate. The output end of the thin cylinder passes through the wire grabbing mounting plate and is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting bar. Guide pillars for limiting the position are installed at both ends of the wire grabbing mounting plate on the same side of the thin cylinder. A group of flexible clamps for clamping flat copper wires are installed at the bottom of each mounting bar.

[0007] A control component for cooperating with the flexible clamping claws is installed on the top of each mounting plate.

[0008] Furthermore, a limiting groove for movable connection is provided in the middle of the mounting bar, and the number of the limiting grooves is the same as the number of the flexible clamping claw groups on the same side.

[0009] Furthermore, the control assembly includes a vacuum generator, a solenoid valve and an air distribution block installed on the top of the mounting bar, and the solenoid valve is connected to the air distribution block through the vacuum generator.

[0010] Furthermore, the number of the flexible clamping jaws in each group is no less than two pairs.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] The level difference of the flat copper wires clamped at the bottom of the two wire-grabbing mounting plates can be adjusted according to different forming requirements, thereby achieving different flat copper wire forming operations. At the same time, the clamping movement is relatively stable, and the movable connection method is more convenient for subsequent disassembly and maintenance work. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0018] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, the following description of the present invention is more comprehensive, with reference to the accompanying drawings. The drawings illustrate embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the present invention.

[0019] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," and "disposed" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they may refer to fixed connection or disposition, detachable connection or disposition, or integral connection or disposition. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0020] Example

[0021] like Figure 1-3As shown, this embodiment provides a wire grabbing mechanism for flat copper wire, including a wire grabbing mounting plate 2, with mounting bars 1 installed at both ends of the bottom of the wire grabbing mounting plate 2 (i.e., the E-shaped end and the U-shaped end). In detail, a limiting groove for movable connection is opened in the middle of the mounting bar 1, and the number of limiting grooves is the same as the number of flexible clamping jaws 5 on the same side. Its function is to fix the flexible clamping jaw 5 by adding bolts to the top of the flexible clamping jaw 5, and the bolt fixing method facilitates subsequent disassembly and position adjustment.

[0022] The E-shaped end at the top of the wire grabbing mounting plate 2 is equipped with a thin cylinder 3 for adjusting the position of the mounting bar 1. The output end of the thin cylinder 3 passes through the wire grabbing mounting plate 2 and is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting bar 1. Guide pillars 4 for limiting are installed at both ends of the wire grabbing mounting plate 2 on the same side of the thin cylinder 3. A group of flexible clamping claws 5 for clamping flat copper wires are installed at the bottom of each mounting bar 1. The number of each group of flexible clamping claws 5 is not less than two pairs, and they are symmetrically arranged with the center of the mounting bar 1 as the axis to ensure the stability of the grasping. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a wire pressing block is provided between each pair of flexible clamping jaws 5. The wire pressing block can limit and fix the flat copper wire before the flexible clamping jaws grasp the wire, so as to facilitate the flexible clamping jaws to clamp the flat copper wire;

[0023] Two sets of control components for cooperating with the flexible clamping jaws 5 are installed on the top of the wire grabbing mounting plate 2, including a vacuum generator 6, a solenoid valve 7 and an air distributor block 8 installed on the top of the mounting bar 1. The solenoid valve 7 is connected to the air distributor block 8 through the vacuum generator 6 to achieve the purpose of controlling the opening and closing of the flexible clamping jaws 5. The wire grabbing assembly controls the solenoid valve 7 to send a signal through the flat copper wire forming system. The solenoid valve 7 switches to the open state, allowing airflow to enter and starting the vacuum generator 6 to generate negative pressure. The negative pressure is transmitted to the corresponding flexible clamping jaw 5 through the air distributor block 8, reducing the internal pressure. The external atmospheric pressure causes the flexible clamping jaw 5 to shrink inward and clamp the flat copper wire. Conversely, the wire grabbing assembly sends a signal again through the flat copper wire forming system to switch the solenoid valve 7 to the closed state, stop the airflow, and allow external air to enter the flexible clamping jaw 5. After the pressure is restored, the flexible clamping jaw 5 opens, thereby realizing the taking and placing of the flat copper wire.

[0024] like Figure 4 As shown ( Figure 4 This is the overall schematic diagram of the flat copper wire forming equipment, which mainly includes the following structures:

[0025] The loading table 11 and the forming table 20 are fixedly installed on the base 10, and the cleaning and detection component 12, the wire pulling component 13 and the cutting and wiring mechanism 14 are fixedly installed on the loading table 11 from left to right in sequence. The transfer mechanism and two 2D forming stations 19 are fixedly installed on the forming table 20, wherein the wire grabbing mechanism 15 (i.e., the mounting bar 1) is installed at the cutting and wiring mechanism 14. The working process is as follows: first, the flat copper wire passes through the cleaning and detection component 12, and the peeling state of the surface of the flat copper wire is detected. The flat copper wire that passes the inspection is transported to the cutting and wiring mechanism 14 through the wire pulling component 13. The cutting and wiring mechanism 14 cuts off the paint-coated position on the flat copper wire and accepts the cut flat copper wire. Then, the wire grabbing mechanism 15 grabs the cut flat copper wire and adjusts the horizontal position of the mounting bar 1 by extending and retracting the thin cylinder 3, that is, the horizontal position of the flat copper wire is adjusted (it can be adjusted to a non-horizontal position as needed), and then it is transferred to the 2D forming station 19 by the robotic arm 16 for forming.

[0026] It should be noted that the structure described in the present invention can be implemented in a variety of different forms and is not limited to the described embodiments. Any equivalent transformations made by ordinary technicians in this field using the contents of the description and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied to other related technical fields, such as the loading and unloading of other items, are included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
