Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable production technology, and in particular to an inspection device for the production and processing of low-voltage cables. Background Technology
[0002] A cable is a conductor made of one or more mutually insulated conductors and an outer insulating protective layer, used to transmit electricity or information from one place to another. Cables can be classified into power cables, control cables, compensating cables, shielded cables, high-temperature cables, computer cables, signal cables, coaxial cables, fire-resistant cables, marine cables, mining cables, and aluminum alloy cables. With the gradual improvement of informatization, the use of data transmission, computers, sensors, etc. is becoming more and more widespread. All these devices rely on wires or cables for transmission. During the production process, cables need to be tested for breakage or damage.
[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent document [Announcement No.: CN217901993U] which discloses an inspection device for the production and processing of low-voltage power cables. Specifically, this device is described as convenient, efficient, and accurate for testing low-voltage power cables. However, pulleys on both sides of the device guide and limit the cable's movement. These pulleys cannot adequately limit the cable's movement, leading to slippage and displacement in various directions during testing, which hinders rapid cable inspection. To address these issues, a solution is proposed below. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an inspection device for low-voltage cable production and processing, which solves the problem mentioned in the background art that the pulley cannot fully limit the cable, and the cable is prone to slippage and deviation in various directions during the inspection process.
[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] An inspection device for low-voltage cable production and processing includes a visual inspection box and a support frame. The visual inspection box is mounted on the support frame. Support plates are provided on both sides of the visual inspection box. A first conveyor roller is rotatably mounted on the support plate. Two support blocks are symmetrically mounted on the support plate. A slide rod is installed between the two support blocks. A first slider is slidably mounted on the slide rod. A connecting rod is installed at one end of the first slider. A second conveyor roller is rotatably mounted on the connecting rod. A first spring is sleeved on the upper end of the slide rod. One end of the first spring is fixed to the bottom of the upper support block, and the other end of the first spring is fixed to the top of the first slider. The first and second conveyor rollers are arranged opposite to each other. A first support plate is also mounted on the end face of the support plate. The first support plate is provided with a conveying component to further facilitate cable conveying.
[0007] Preferably, the conveying component includes two conveying columns, two springs, and two trapezoidal sliders. The top of the support plate is provided with a trapezoidal groove. The trapezoidal sliders are slidably disposed at both ends of the trapezoidal groove. The conveying columns are installed on the top of the trapezoidal sliders. The two springs are respectively disposed at both ends of the trapezoidal groove. One end of each spring is fixed to one of the two side walls of the trapezoidal groove, and the other end of each spring is fixed to the side wall of the trapezoidal slider.
[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the conveying column is rotatably provided with a threaded column, the top of the conveying column is provided with a through hole, the top of the threaded column is provided with a mating hole corresponding to the through hole, and the threaded column is threadedly engaged with the top of the trapezoidal slider II.
[0009] Preferably, both of the transmission columns are provided with annular grooves to facilitate cable transmission.
[0010] Preferably, both the first conveyor roller and the second conveyor roller are provided with annular grooves to facilitate cable transmission.
[0011] Preferably, the support frame is constructed using 40 profiles, and the visual inspection box is also equipped with a display screen for displaying inspection data. The visual inspection box is also externally connected to a processor.
[0012] Beneficial effects: When inspecting the produced low-voltage cables, the cables are first conveyed via conveyor rollers one and two. These rollers facilitate the conveying of the cables. Since the produced cables vary in size, when the cable size changes, the cable pushes the upper conveyor roller two to slide. Conveyor roller two then drives the connecting rod and slider one to slide on the sliding rod, thereby adjusting the position of conveyor roller two to accommodate cables of different diameters. The spring one, when sliding, compresses the slider one, generating elasticity. This facilitates the subsequent reset of conveyor roller two and allows for better contact between conveyor roller two and the cable through the elasticity of spring one. The arrangement of conveyor rollers one and two enables clamping and conveying of the upper and lower parts of the cable, while the conveying components enable clamping and conveying of the left and right parts of the cable, preventing slippage and deviation during conveying.

[0020] See Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an inspection device for low-voltage cable production and processing includes a visual inspection box 1 and a support frame 2. The visual inspection box 1 is mounted on the support frame 2. Support plates 3 are provided on both sides of the visual inspection box 1. A first conveyor roller 4 is rotatably mounted on the support plate 3. Two support blocks 5 are symmetrically mounted on the support plate 3. A slide rod 6 is installed between the two support blocks 5. A first slider 7 is slidably mounted on the slide rod 6. A connecting rod 8 is installed at one end of the first slider 7. A second conveyor roller 9 is rotatably mounted on the connecting rod 8. The first conveyor roller 4 and the second conveyor roller 9 are arranged opposite each other. Both the first conveyor roller 4 and the second conveyor roller 9 have annular grooves 19 to facilitate the transmission of the cable. When it is necessary to inspect the produced low-voltage cable, the cable will first pass through the space between the first conveyor roller 4 and the second conveyor roller 9. The cable will be adapted to the annular grooves 19 on the first conveyor roller 4 and the second conveyor roller 9. The two annular grooves 19 are used to clamp and transmit the upper and lower ends of the cable.
[0021] Because the produced cables vary in size, when the cable size changes, the cable pushes the upper conveyor roller 2 9 to slide. The conveyor roller 2 9 then moves the connecting rod 8, which in turn moves the slider 1 7 on the slide rod 6. This allows for adjustment of the position of the conveyor roller 2 9 to accommodate cables of different diameters. A spring 1 10 is fitted onto the upper end of the slide rod 6. One end of the spring 1 10 is fixed to the bottom of the upper support block 5, and the other end is fixed to the top of the slider 1 7. The spring 1 10 causes the slider 1 7 to compress it during sliding, resulting in deformation and elasticity. This facilitates the subsequent reset of the conveyor roller 2 9. The elasticity of the spring 1 10 also pushes the conveyor roller 2 9 in the opposite direction, allowing it to better contact the cable and facilitating cable transport.
[0022] A support plate 11 is also installed on the end face of the support plate 3. The support plate 11 is provided with a transmission component 12 to further facilitate the transmission of the cable. After the cable passes through the transmission roller 4 and the transmission roller 9, it will pass through the transmission component 12. The transmission component 12 can clamp and transmit the cable from left to right, preventing the cable from sliding and deviating during transmission.
[0023] The conveying component 12 includes two conveying columns 13, two springs 14, and two trapezoidal sliders 15. A trapezoidal groove 16 is provided on the top of the support plate 11. The trapezoidal sliders 15 are slidably disposed at both ends of the trapezoidal groove 16. The conveying columns 13 are installed on the top of the trapezoidal sliders 15. The cable passes between the two conveying columns 13. Each of the two conveying columns 13 has annular grooves 18 to facilitate cable transmission. The cable is conveyed by engaging with the two annular grooves 18. When the cable passes between the two conveying columns 13, it squeezes the conveying columns 13 to both sides, causing the conveying columns 13 to drive the trapezoidal sliders at the bottom. The second slider 15 slides within the trapezoidal groove 16. Two springs 14 are respectively located at both ends of the trapezoidal groove 16. One end of each spring 14 is fixed to one of the two side walls of the trapezoidal groove 16, and the other end of each spring 14 is fixed to the side wall of the trapezoidal slider 15. The two trapezoidal sliders 15 move in opposite directions within the trapezoidal groove 16. During their movement, the trapezoidal sliders 15 also compress the springs 14, which generate elastic force. This elastic force pushes the trapezoidal sliders 15 in the opposite direction, enabling them to drive the transmission column 13 to clamp and transmit the cable.
[0024] A threaded post 17 is rotatably provided at the bottom of the conveyor post 13. A through hole is provided at the top of the conveyor post 13, and a mating hole corresponding to the through hole is provided at the top of the threaded post 17. The threaded post 17 is threadedly engaged with the top of the trapezoidal slider 15. By installing the threaded post 17 at the bottom of the conveyor post 13, different conveyor posts 13 can be replaced as needed, thus better adapting to the cable. When it is necessary to install the threaded post 17 onto the trapezoidal slider 15, a tightening tool can be inserted into the conveyor post 13 through the through hole. The tightening tool engages with the mating hole at the top of the threaded post 17, so that the threaded post 17 can be rotated.
[0025] The support frame 2 is constructed using 40mm profiles. The visual inspection box 1 is fixed to the support frame 2 by clips, allowing the height of the visual inspection box 1 to be adjusted freely according to the cable transmission height during installation, enabling the cable to be transmitted into the visual inspection box 1. Multiple cameras are installed inside the visual inspection box 1, evenly distributed within it. These cameras can photograph and inspect the cable. A ring light source is also installed inside the visual inspection box 1 to illuminate the cable for easier inspection. The visual inspection box 1 uses (Wuxi Hezhong Liwei Technology Co., Ltd. model HZLW-XL inspection equipment), which is existing technology, so its specific inspection method will not be described in detail. A display screen 20 is also installed on the visual inspection box 1 to display inspection data. The visual inspection box 1 is also externally connected to a processor, which processes the data captured by the cameras. The processed data is displayed on the display screen 20, allowing inspectors to observe the cable condition.
[0026] Working Principle: When the cable is being inspected, it is first conveyed by conveyor roller 4 and conveyor roller 9. These rollers facilitate the movement of the cable. Since the produced cables vary in size, when the cable size changes, the cable pushes the upper conveyor roller 9 to slide. The conveyor roller 9 then drives the connecting rod 8 and slider 7 to slide on the sliding rod 6, thereby adjusting the position of the conveyor roller 9 to accommodate cables of different diameters. The spring 10 causes the slider 7 to compress it during sliding, generating elasticity. This facilitates the subsequent reset of the conveyor roller 9 and allows for better contact between the conveyor roller 9 and the cable through the elasticity of the spring 10. The arrangement of conveying roller 4 and conveying roller 9 enables the clamping and conveying of the upper and lower parts of the cable. After passing through conveying roller 1 and conveying roller 2 9, the cable passes between two conveying columns 13. The arrangement of two conveying columns 13 enables the clamping and conveying of the left and right parts of the cable. The trapezoidal slider 2 15 and spring 2 14 at the bottom of the conveying column 13 can push the conveying column 13 to move, so that the conveying column 13 can adapt to cables of different sizes. The arrangement of conveying roller 4, conveying roller 2 9 and conveying column 13 prevents the cable from slipping and deviating during the conveying process. The cable will enter the vision inspection box 1 for inspection. After inspection, the cable will pass out of the vision inspection box 1 and then be conveyed away by conveying roller 4, conveying roller 2 9 and conveying column 13.
