Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable processing technology, and in particular to a two-core wire transverse crimping device. Background Technology

[0002] like Figure 1 The dual-core cable shown in the figure requires crimping the two core wires with center pin 01 during the actual processing. During crimping, it is necessary to ensure that the two center pins are parallel, which places higher demands on the crimping accuracy.

[0003] In related technologies, the crimping of the center pins on dual-core wires often adopts a synchronous crimping method. That is, the two core wires are first separated by setting a distance between them and straightening them into a parallel state. Then, the two core wires are simultaneously inserted into the center pins at two corresponding intervals and then crimped synchronously.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned synchronous crimping method has high requirements for the processing, insertion and crimping accuracy of the wire core, resulting in a low yield rate of the center pin 01 crimping and low reliability of the two-core wire center pin crimping. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of at least one of the above technical problems, the present invention provides a two-core wire transverse crimping device, which adopts structural improvements to improve the reliability of the two-core wire center pin crimping.

[0006] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a two-core wire transverse shifting crimping device is provided, comprising:

[0007] Base;

[0008] A clamping mechanism, fixed to the base, is used for clamping and transferring the wire harness;

[0009] A sliding plate is arranged parallel to the base and is movable relative to the base along a straight line.

[0010] A drive mechanism, fixed to the base and connected to the sliding plate, is used to drive the movement of the sliding plate;

[0011] A crimping mechanism, fixed to the sliding plate and facing the clamping mechanism, is used to crimp the center pin;

[0012] The crimping mechanism is configured such that after crimping a single center pin, the drive mechanism drives it to move a set distance to crimp another center pin.

[0013] In some embodiments of this utility model, the clamping mechanism includes a gripper and a threading drive that drives the gripper to move toward or away from the crimping mechanism.

[0014] In some embodiments of this utility model, the crimping mechanism includes a crimping seat, a crimping head that moves toward or away from the crimping seat under external force, and a feeding assembly for moving the center pin toward the crimping seat.

[0015] In some embodiments of this utility model, the gripper is movable relative to the threading drive member in the vertical direction, and an elastic member is also connected between the gripper and the threading drive member.

[0016] In some embodiments of this utility model, the crimping connector also has a supporting post disposed toward the clamping claw. When the crimping connector contacts the crimping seat, the supporting post abuts against the clamping claw and moves downward synchronously.

[0017] In some embodiments of this utility model, the crimping mechanism further includes a material collection tube, the opening of which is disposed facing the crimping seat, for collecting the connecting material strip of the center needle.

[0018] In some embodiments of this invention, the crimping mechanism also includes a cleaning component for cleaning debris generated during crimping.

[0019] In some embodiments of this utility model, the cleaning assembly includes a first pipe and a second pipe disposed opposite to each other, the first pipe being disposed toward one side of the crimping seat and the second pipe being disposed toward the other side of the crimping seat.

[0020] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first pipe is a circular pipe, and the diameter of the first pipe is smaller than that of the second pipe. The first pipe is used to blow air toward the crimping seat, and the second pipe is used to draw air toward the crimping seat.

[0021] In some embodiments of this utility model, the end of the second pipe facing the crimping seat has a covering structure, which surrounds the collecting pipe and is constricted.

[0022] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By configuring the crimping mechanism to crimp the two center pins of the dual-core wire sequentially and individually, compared with the prior art, there is no need to process and insert the dual-core wire before crimping, which improves the accuracy of the center pin crimping. At the same time, the driving mechanism can drive at a set distance, which can be applied to core wires with different center pin distances, and the crimping reliability is high.

[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0033] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it can be directly attached to the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0034] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 6 The two-core wire transverse crimping device shown includes: a base 1, a clamping mechanism 2, a sliding plate 3, a driving mechanism 4, and a crimping mechanism 5; as shown... Figure 1 The base 1 shown provides a stable support platform for components such as clamping mechanism 2, sliding plate 3, driving mechanism 4 and pressing mechanism 5, and is used to install and fix other mechanisms, such as clamping mechanism 2 and driving mechanism 4. The connection method can be a movable connection or a fixed connection.

[0036] The clamping mechanism 2 is fixed on the base 1 and is used to clamp and transfer the wire harness. The specific structure of the clamping mechanism 2 can be a gripper 21, a robotic arm, etc. The specific structure can be set by those skilled in the art according to their needs.

[0037] The sliding plate 3 is set parallel to the base 1 and is movable relative to the base 1 in a straight line. The sliding form can be in various ways, such as a linear guide rail and a slider, or a screw drive. A guide device and a limiting device can be used together. The guide device guides the sliding plate 3 to move along a predetermined trajectory to prevent the sliding plate 3 from deviating from the predetermined track, and the limiting device limits the sliding plate's movement distance to make the sliding plate 3 accurately positioned.

[0038] The drive mechanism 4 is fixed to the base 1 and connected to the sliding plate 3, used to drive the movement of the sliding plate 3; it should be noted that the drive mechanism 4 can have various structural forms, such as... Figure 2 The motor drive shown can also be a cylinder or a hydraulic drive; it should also be noted that the fixed connection between the drive mechanism 4 and the base 1 can be a bolt connection, a welding connection, or a pin connection, and the specific connection method can be set by those skilled in the art as needed.

[0039] The crimping mechanism 5 is fixed on the sliding plate 3 and is positioned towards the clamping mechanism 2. It is used to crimp the center pin 01. The crimping mechanism 5 is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 3. Therefore, the driving mechanism 4 drives the crimping mechanism 5 to move together with the sliding plate 3. The crimping mechanism 5 crimps the two core wires on the wire harness.

[0040] The crimping mechanism 5 is configured such that after crimping a single center pin 01, the drive mechanism 4 drives it to move a set distance to crimp another center pin 01. By configuring the crimping mechanism 5 to crimp the two center pins 01 of the dual-core wire sequentially and individually, compared with the prior art, there is no need to process and thread the dual-core wire before crimping, thus improving the crimping accuracy of the center pins 01. At the same time, the drive mechanism 4 can drive a set distance, which can be applied to core wires with different center pin 01 distances, resulting in high crimping reliability.

[0041] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the clamping mechanism 2 includes a gripper 21 and a threading drive 22 that drives the gripper 21 to move toward or away from the crimping mechanism 5. The threading drive 22 can be a cylinder, an electric push rod, a linear motor, etc., and can be configured as needed by those skilled in the art. The gripper 21 clamps the wire harness, and the threading drive 22 moves the wire harness from its initial position to a position where the core wire can be crimped. Through the coordinated action of the gripper 21 and the threading drive 22, the clamping mechanism 2 achieves stable clamping and precise movement of the wire harness being processed.

[0042] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 As shown, the crimping mechanism 5 includes a crimping seat 51, a crimping head 52 that moves towards or away from the crimping seat 51 under external force, and a feeding assembly 53 for moving the center pin 01 towards the crimping seat 51. During the crimping process, the crimping seat 51 remains stationary, providing a stable crimping reference for the crimping head 52. The material of the crimping seat 51 can be PS, PPS, MPPO, etc., which have high strength and can withstand the pressure during the crimping process. The external force on the crimping head 52 can be provided by a hydraulic system, a pneumatic system, or a motor drive device. After contacting the element to be crimped, such as the center pin, the crimping head 52 continues to apply pressure until a preset crimping depth or pressure value is reached. The shape and size of the crimping head 52 are designed according to the specific requirements of the element to be crimped. The surface of the crimping head 52 is usually specially treated, such as galvanizing, nitriding, phosphating, etc., to improve the crimping quality and extend its service life. Figure 6 As shown, the feeding assembly 53 moves the center pin 01 to the designated position of the crimping seat 51.

[0043] To better adjust the clamping force, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4As shown, the gripper 21 is vertically movable relative to the threading drive 22. This movable design allows the gripper 21 to be positioned at different heights or locations. By adjusting the vertical position of the gripper 21, it can be ensured that the gripper 21 can grip the wire harness. An elastic element 23 is also connected between the gripper 21 and the threading drive 22. The elastic element 23 mainly serves to buffer, dampen shocks, and adjust tension. When the gripper 21 moves or grips the wire harness, the elastic element 23 can absorb some of the impact and vibration, protecting the gripper 21 and the threading drive 22 from damage. The elastic element 23 can also adjust the gripping force of the gripper 21 according to actual needs, ensuring that the wire harness will neither slip nor be damaged during the gripping process.

[0044] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the crimping head 52 also has a supporting post 54 facing the gripper 21. When the crimping head 52 contacts the crimping seat 51, the supporting post 54 supports the gripper 21 and moves downward synchronously. Through the interaction between the supporting post 54 and the gripper 21, the impact force generated during the crimping process can be buffered to a certain extent, protecting the gripper 21 and the crimping head 52 from damage. During the crimping process, the crimping head 52 first contacts the crimping seat 51. At this time, the supporting post 54 begins to play its role, supporting the gripper 21 and moving downward synchronously. As the crimping head 52 presses down further, the gripper 21 clamps the material to be crimped, and sufficient pressure is applied by the crimping seat 51 to complete the crimping process. Throughout the process, the supporting post 54 always maintains contact with the gripper 21, ensuring the stability and synchronicity of the gripper 21.

[0045] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the crimping mechanism 5 also includes a collection pipe 55, the opening of which faces the crimping seat 51, for collecting the connecting material strip of the center needle 01. Some waste material, such as the connecting material strip of the center needle 01, is generated when crimping the center needle 01. The waste material is collected in time by the collection pipe 55, avoiding pollution of the working environment and interference with subsequent crimping processes of the center needle 01. Furthermore, by automatically collecting the waste material, the setting of the collection pipe 55 reduces the time for manual cleaning of waste material, thereby improving the efficiency of the entire crimping process. The waste material collected by the collection pipe 55 can be pre-programmed for recycling, realizing the reuse of resources.

[0046] To better collect waste, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 6 to 8As shown, the crimping mechanism 5 also has a cleaning component 6 for cleaning up debris generated during crimping. Debris is generated during the crimping process, and cleaning by the cleaning component 6 can reduce wear and malfunctions caused by debris adhesion. It should be noted that the cleaning component 6 has various structural forms. It can be cleaned using mechanical components such as brushes and scrapers, or by airflow such as compressed air or fans, or by vacuum cleaning. The specific structural form can be set by those skilled in the art according to their needs.

[0047] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the cleaning component 6 includes a first pipe 61 and a second pipe 62 disposed opposite to each other. The first pipe 61 is disposed on one side facing the crimping seat 51, and the second pipe 62 is disposed on the other side facing the crimping seat 51. It should be noted that the first pipe 61 and the second pipe 62 can be used to blow air or to suck air. The specific function settings can be set by those skilled in the art as needed.

[0048] To further achieve better cleaning and waste collection results, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as... Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the first pipe 61 is a circular pipe with a smaller diameter than the second pipe 62. The first pipe 61 is used to blow air towards the crimping seat 51, and the second pipe 62 is used to extract air towards the crimping seat 51. Combining the blowing and extraction effects, the first pipe 61 is configured with a smaller diameter and a higher airflow velocity, which helps to blow debris away from the surface of the crimping seat 51. The second pipe 62 has a larger diameter than the first pipe 61, which helps to increase the flow rate and efficiency of extraction, sucking in and carrying away the debris and fine particles blown away by the first pipe 61. This configuration ensures that the crimping seat 51 and its surrounding area can be thoroughly and effectively cleaned. The airflow intensity, direction, and duration of the first pipe 61 and the second pipe 62 can be adjusted according to actual needs to adapt to different cleaning requirements and working environments, making it suitable for a wider range of environments.

[0049] In some embodiments of this utility model, the end of the second pipe 62 facing the crimping seat 51 has a covering structure 621, which surrounds the collecting pipe and is constricted. The constricted covering structure 621 can form a certain negative pressure area during the air extraction process, thereby enhancing the air extraction effect. When the second pipe 62 extracts air, the constricted design makes the airflow speed up when it approaches the crimping seat 51. At the same time, the negative pressure effect will more effectively draw debris and small particles into the pipe, reducing the possibility of airflow escape.

[0050] Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
