[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 In this embodiment of the utility model, a tension-adjustable conveyor includes a base plate 1. A strip block 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. An installation groove 10 is provided on the top of the strip block 5. A vertical rod 7 is connected to the top through a tension adjustment structure. A limiting groove 16 is provided on the outer side wall of the upper end of the vertical rod 7. A pressure sensor 18 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the limiting groove 16. An arc-shaped baffle 17 is fixedly connected to one end of the pressure sensor 18. A stepper motor 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. A rotating rod 12 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the stepper motor 11. A slot 15 is provided on both sides of the top of the rotating rod 12. A copper wire drum 13 is slidably connected to the outer side wall of the rotating rod 12. Two clamping plates 2 are fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the copper wire drum 13. One end of each clamping plate 2 is slidably connected to the two slots 15. A limiting structure is provided on the side wall of each slot 15.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-3 The tension adjustment structure includes a screw 8, which is rotatably connected to one end of the side wall of the mounting groove 10. A connecting block 6 is threaded onto the outer side wall of the screw 8. The connecting block 6 is slidably connected within the mounting groove 10. The top of the connecting block 6 extends out of the mounting groove 10 and is fixedly connected to the bottom side wall of the vertical rod 7. One end of the screw 8 passes through the side wall of the strip block 5 and is rotatably connected to the strip block 5. A rotating block 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the screw 8. By rotating the rotating block 14, the rotating block 14 drives the screw 8 to rotate. When the screw 8 rotates, it can drive the vertical rod 7 to move. The connecting block 6 drives the vertical rod 7 to squeeze the copper wire, thereby adjusting the tension of the copper wire.

[0028] Please see Figure 2-3 The surface of the rotating block 14 is provided with anti-slip texture to prevent slipping when rotating the rotating block 14.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3-4, the two limiting structures include two sliding grooves 9 which are respectively opened on the side walls of the two clamping grooves 15. Springs 4 are fixedly connected to the side walls of the two sliding grooves 9. One end of each of the two springs 4 is fixedly connected with a limiting rod 3. The two limiting rods 3 are respectively slidably connected with the two sliding grooves 9. One end of each of the two limiting rods 3 extends into the two clamping grooves 15. One end of each of the two limiting rods 3 is arc-shaped. By sleeving the copper wire reel 13 wound with copper wire on the outer side wall of the rotating rod 12, the two clamping plates 2 are inserted into the two clamping grooves 15. When the two clamping plates 2 enter the clamping grooves 15, they will squeeze the inclined side walls of the two limiting rods 3, causing the two limiting rods 3 to move along the side walls of the two clamping plates 2. The two limiting rods 3 simultaneously squeeze the two sliding grooves 9, making the two sliding grooves 9 in a stressed state. When the two clamping plates 2 move below the two limiting rods 3, under the action of the two sliding grooves 9, the two limiting rods 3 automatically reset, thereby limiting the two clamping plates 2.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 , both of the two springs 4 are made of stainless steel to prevent the two springs 4 from being affected by rust and affecting the use.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1-3 , the stepping motor 11 is a stepping motor with the brand of Casun / Fude and the model of 57SHD4974-21BH-2(23HS11240).

[0032] The working principle of the present utility model is: by sleeving the copper wire reel 13 wound with copper wire on the outer side wall of the rotating rod 12, the two clamping plates 2 are inserted into the two clamping grooves 15. When the two clamping plates 2 enter the clamping grooves 15, they will squeeze the inclined side walls of the two limiting rods 3, causing the two limiting rods 3 to move along the side walls of the two clamping plates 2. The two limiting rods 3 simultaneously squeeze the two sliding grooves 9, making the two sliding grooves 9 in a stressed state. When the two clamping plates 2 move below the two limiting rods 3, under the action of the two sliding grooves 9, the two limiting rods 3 automatically reset, thereby limiting the two clamping plates 2. Then, the side wall of the copper wire can be placed on the side wall of the arc-shaped baffle 17, and one end of the copper wire extends to the processing area. By rotating the rotating block 14, the rotating block 14 drives the screw rod 8 to rotate. When the screw rod 8 rotates, it can drive the vertical rod 7 to move. The connecting block 6 drives the vertical rod 7 to squeeze the copper wire, thereby adjusting the tension of the copper wire. Through the provided pressure sensor 18, the tension of the copper wire can also be detected. Then, by starting the motor 11 to drive the rotating rod 12 to rotate, the copper wire can be conveyed.

Those skilled in the art can readily implement this utility model based on the accompanying drawings and the above description.
