[0002] With the improvement of the mechanization degree of coal mine operations, the number of various types of mechanical equipment in underground coal mines has gradually increased. For the purpose of explosion protection, underground equipment cannot use power sources such as internal combustion engines that will directly produce open flames. Therefore, most equipment such as excavator loaders, drilling vehicles, rock loaders, repair machines, etc. use electric motors as power sources.
[0003] Because power is transmitted via wires, the cables must move with the equipment as it moves. Mine electricity has high voltage (over 380V), thick protective layers, and heavy cables, making manual cable handling time-consuming and labor-intensive. Consequently, various cable reels have become commercially available. These reels are mounted on electrical equipment and can be used to retract and release cables when underground equipment is moved.
[0004] Currently, most cable reels on the market are motor-driven and require their own power supply, leaving them vulnerable to further improvement. Furthermore, due to space constraints underground, the reeling and unreeling of cables hundreds of meters long requires the cables to be arranged in multiple layers to save space. Furthermore, when operating underground, falling coal and rocks can get caught between the two layers of cable during reeling and unreeling, exacerbating cable wear.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new cable retracting and unreeling device to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0030] The following describes the embodiments of the present invention in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different ways as defined and covered by the claims.
[0031] The utility model provides a cable retracting and releasing device, which aims to solve the problem that the existing cable device is easily affected by falling rocks and thus damages the cable.
[0032] Example 1
[0033] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the cable reeling and releasing device includes a mounting bracket 1, a cable assembly 2 and a protective cover 3, and the mounting bracket 1 is arranged on the electrical equipment; the cable assembly 2 includes a cable reel 2.1 and a driving mechanism 2.2, and the cable reel 2.1 is rotatably arranged on the mounting bracket 1; the driving mechanism 2.2 is arranged on the mounting bracket 1, and the output shaft of the driving mechanism 2.2 is connected to the cable reel 2.1, and the driving mechanism 2.2 can drive the cable reel 2.1 to retract or release the cable line 2.1.2; the protective cover 3 is connected to the mounting bracket 1 or the electrical equipment, and the protective cover 3 is located above the cable reel 2.1 and covers the cable reel 2.1. When the electrical equipment moves, the driving mechanism 2.2 can drive the cable reel 2.1 to retract or release the cable 2.1.2 to adapt to the different distances between the electrical equipment and the power source, and the protective cover 3 covers the cable reel 2.1 to prevent falling rocks from entering the cable reel 2.1 and causing damage to the cable 2.1.2. It also avoids the situation where the cable 2.1.2 is stuck due to falling rocks during the reeling and releasing process, thereby improving the efficiency of the reeling and releasing operation of the cable 2.1.2.
[0034] The protective cover 3 includes a mounting base 3.3 and a protective plate 3.4. The mounting base 3.3 is connected to the mounting bracket 1 or the electrical device. The protective plate 3.4 is rotatably mounted on the mounting base 3.3 and has an inclined surface arranged along the central axis of the cable reel 2.1. The protective plate 3.4 covers the cable reel 2.1. The protective plate 3.4 completely covers the top of the cable reel 2.1 to effectively prevent falling rocks from entering the cable reel 2.1. Fallen rocks slide down the inclined surface and avoid accumulating on the protective plate 3.4. In this embodiment, the mounting seat 3.3 includes a base 3.3.1 and a side panel 3.3.2. The base is arranged on the mounting bracket 1 or the electrical equipment. The side panel 3.3.2 is rotatably connected to the base 3.3.1, and the protective plate 3.4 is arranged on the side panel 3.3.2. The side panel 3.3.2 is staggered with the cable reel 2.1. The side panel 3.3.2 can be rotated relative to the base 3.3.1 to adjust the setting angle of the protective plate 3.4, and can be fixed at different angles by a locking member or a rack limiting structure.
[0035] Specifically, the cable reel 2.1 includes a reel body 2.1.1 and a cable 2.1.2. The cable 2.1.2 is wound on the reel body 2.1.1 in multiple layers. The multiple turns of cable 2.1.2 in each layer are arranged in sequence along the central axis of the cable reel 2.1. The first end of the cable 2.1.2 is connected to the electrical equipment, and the second end is connected to the power supply. The cable assembly 2 also includes a cable arrangement mechanism 2.3 and a transmission mechanism 2.4. The cable arrangement mechanism 2.3 includes a screw rod 2.3.1 and a cable arrangement limit structure 2.3.2. The screw rod 2.3.1 The rotation is set on the mounting bracket 1, and the screw rod 2.3.1 is connected to the output shaft of the driving mechanism 2.2 through the transmission mechanism 2.4; the cable limiting structure 2.3.2 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 2.3.1, and the cable 2.1.2 is limited in the cable limiting structure 2.3.2 and is in rolling contact with the cable limiting structure 2.3.2; the driving mechanism 2.2 can drive the screw rod 2.3.1 to rotate through the transmission mechanism 2.4, so that the screw rod 2.3.1 drives the cable limiting structure 2.3.2 to move back and forth along the central axis of the cable reel 2.1. The cable reel 2.1 rotates under the drive of the driving mechanism 2.2 to release or retract the cable rope. At the same time, the driving mechanism 2.2 drives the screw rod 2.3.1 to rotate through the transmission mechanism 2.4, and then the screw rod 2.3.1 drives the cable arrangement limiting structure 2.3.2 to move back and forth along the central axis of the cable reel 2.1.1. When paying out the cable, the cable arrangement limiting structure 2.3.2 can adjust the position of the cable 2.1.2 in real time to correspond to the position on the cable drum body 2.1.1 closest to the second end of the cable 2.1.2, thereby avoiding excessive wear between the cables 2.1.2 caused by excessive speed when paying out the cable; during the reeling process, the cable arrangement limiting structure 2.3.2 drives the cable 2.1.2 to move back and forth along the central axis of the cable reel 2.1, so that the retracted cable 2.1.2 can be arranged tightly and orderly on the cable drum body 2.1.1, avoiding the entanglement of the cables 2.1.2 at each layer and affecting the subsequent paying out efficiency.
[0036] The cable arrangement and limiting structure 2.3.2 comprises a slide B1, a cable management box B2, and two rollers B3. Slide B1 is threadedly connected to the screw 2.3.1; the cable management box B2 is mounted on slide B1. The two rollers B3 are vertically arranged and rotationally connected to the cable management box B2. The cable 2.1.2 passes through the gap between the two rollers B3 and rolls against each roller B3. When reeling or releasing the cable, the paired rollers B3 sandwich the cable 2.1.2. As slide B1 slides under the action of screw 2.3.1, the paired rollers B3 apply tension to the cable 2.1.2, adjusting its position on the reel body 2.1.1. This ensures that the cable 2.1.2 is tightly and orderly arranged on the cable reel 2.1.1. In another example of this embodiment, there may be no gap between the paired rollers B3, and the function of clamping the cable 2.1.2 is achieved by slotting the cylindrical surfaces of the paired rollers B3.
[0037] Furthermore, the screw rod 2.3.1 is provided with two sets of spiral grooves A1 with opposite rotation directions, and the slide B1 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 2.3.1 through the spiral grooves A1. After the slide B1 moves to one end of the screw rod 2.3.1 through one set of spiral grooves A1, it moves to the other end of the screw rod 2.3.1 through the other set of spiral grooves A1. This realizes the reciprocating motion of the cable organizer during the winding process, thereby arranging the cables.
[0038] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism 2.4 includes a chain 2.4.1 and two sprockets 2.4.2. The two sprockets 2.4.2 are respectively mounted on the output shaft of the drive mechanism 2.2 and the screw rod 2.3.1, and the two sprockets 2.4.2 are driven by the chain 2.4.1. The chain 2.4.1 meshes with the two sprockets 2.4.2 to achieve transmission. Without the need for a separate motor or electric drive, the reciprocating cable arrangement function is achieved by the sprockets 2.4.2 on the cable reel 2.1.
[0039] The cable arrangement mechanism 2.3 also includes a guide rod 2.3.3, which is horizontally mounted on the mounting bracket 1. The cable arrangement limiting structure 2.3.2 is slidably mounted on the guide rod 2.3.3. There can be multiple guide rods 2.3.3, each of which serves to guide the cable arrangement limiting structure 2.3.2, thereby ensuring its stability during reciprocating movement.
[0040] The cable reel-and-reel device also includes a rotating junction box 4, a high-voltage current collector 5, and a fixed junction box 6. Both the rotating junction box 4 and the high-voltage current collector 5 are mounted on the cable reel body 2.1.1. The high-voltage current collector 5 is electrically connected to the cable 2.1.2 via the rotating junction box 4. The fixed junction box 6 is mounted on the mounting bracket 1 or on the electrical device. The fixed junction box 6 is rotationally connected to the output end of the high-voltage current collector 5 and is electrically connected to the electrical device. The cable 2.1.2 is electrically connected to the electrical device via the rotating junction box 4, the high-voltage current collector 5, and the fixed junction box 6, in sequence. This ensures normal power supply to the electrical device while accommodating the rotation of the cable reel 2.1.
[0041] Example 2
[0042] like Figure 5As shown, the difference from Example 1 is that the protective cover 3 includes a guide portion 3.1 and a discharge portion 3.2. The guide portion 3.1 covers the cable reel 2.1 and is tapered in the vertical downward direction. One end of the discharge portion 3.2 is connected to the tapered end of the guide portion 3.1, and the other end is connected to the mounting bracket 1 or the electrical equipment. The discharge portion 3.2 can connect the guide portion 3.1 with the external environment. The guide portion 3.1 can collect fallen rocks that fall on the cable reel 2.1 and guide the fallen rocks out of the discharge portion 3.2 and discharge them to the external environment. This can prevent fallen rocks from falling into the cable reel 2.1 and damaging the cable 2.1.2, and can also prevent fallen rocks from hitting other components. The protective cover 3 can provide effective protection for the cable reel and pay-off device.
[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural transformations made by using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the utility model concept, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
