Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wire marking machine technology, specifically to a wire marking machine pressing module. Background Technology
[0002] A wire marking machine is a device used for identifying electrical wires, primarily in electrical control cabinets and automated control systems. Operators can input information such as numbers and letters to print specific labels, which are then affixed to the wires for easy identification and maintenance. Wire marking machines have wide applications in electrical installation, maintenance, and renovation, and are particularly important in large factories, power systems, and building facilities where extensive wire management is required. Using a wire marking machine not only improves work efficiency but also reduces malfunctions and maintenance costs caused by unclear wire markings.
[0003] CN221093170U discloses a feeding and discharging device for a wire marking printer. The device includes a wire marking printer, a fixed plate fixedly connected to its right side, a feeding mechanism on the top of the fixed plate, and a discharging mechanism on its left side. The feeding mechanism places the cable to be printed onto a mounting frame, then inserts the cable into the printer. A rotating worm gear causes four sets of fixing blocks (number one, number two, and limit posts) to rotate simultaneously, moving the limit posts inward to restrain the cable and prevent it from shifting during printing. Activating a motor causes the heating blocks inside the roller to evenly heat the cable, improving print quality and preventing the cable's stiffness from affecting the printing process.
[0004] However, in the aforementioned wire marking printers, the wire marking tubes need to be threaded through the printer using a tube adjuster, which is very inconvenient and significantly reduces work efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned technical deficiencies and propose a wire marking machine tube pressing module to solve the technical problem that in the prior art, the wire tube needs to be inserted and installed in the wire marking printer using a sleeve adjuster, which is very inconvenient and significantly reduces work efficiency.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model provides a wire marking machine pressing module, including a main unit and a cover;
[0008] The main unit is provided with a conduit channel, and a pressure fitting is connected to the cover. After the cover is closed on the main unit, the pressure fitting presses down on the conduit placed in the conduit channel.
[0009] In some embodiments, the pressure fitting includes a pressure block having a rotating end and a pressure end that can rotate about the rotating end. The rotating end is rotatably connected to the cover. When the cover is closed, the pressure end corresponds to the conduit channel to press against the conduit inside the conduit channel.
[0010] In some embodiments, one end of the crimping fitting has a bend that is perpendicular to each other. When the crimping fitting is pressed against the conduit, the convex edge of the bend abuts against the conduit in the conduit channel.
[0011] In some embodiments, the crimping fitting has a guide post on one side of the end used to press the conduit, and the conduit channel of the host has a groove corresponding to the guide post on one side. When the crimping fitting moves from the disengaged state to the crimped state, the guide post can enter the groove and slide along the groove.
[0012] In some embodiments, the pressure block and the conduit remain separated before the guide post enters the chute.
[0013] In some embodiments, two guide posts are provided, respectively disposed on both sides of the pressure fitting, and two sliding grooves are respectively provided on the main unit at positions corresponding to the two guide posts.
[0014] In some embodiments, at least two sets of the crimping fittings are provided, wherein the two sets of crimping fittings correspond to the inlet and outlet positions of the main body conduit, respectively.
[0015] In some embodiments, the wire marking machine crimping module further includes a crimping bracket, and at least two sets of crimping components are mounted on the crimping bracket and connected to the cover through the crimping bracket. The crimping bracket has a closed state and an open state. When the cover is closed, the crimping bracket covers the wire conduit channel of the main unit, forming the closed state; when the cover is open, the crimping bracket flips upwards towards the main unit, forming the open state.
[0016] In some embodiments, when the crimping bracket is in the closed state, the crimping component is placed inside the host and above the conduit channel, forming a crimped state; when the crimping bracket is in the open state, the crimping component is detached from the host, forming a detached state.
[0017] In some embodiments, the wire marking machine pressing module further includes an elastic element connected to the pressing member, which generates a spring force when the cover is closed to drive one end of the pressing member to move toward the wire conduit channel, so that the pressing member presses the wire conduit in the wire conduit channel.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the wire marking machine crimping module provided by this utility model, by setting a crimping component on the cover, can apply appropriate pressure to the wire already placed in the wire channel when the cover is closed on the main unit, so as to fix the wire by pressing; when it is necessary to open the cover to take out the wire, the crimping component can automatically open, and when the cover is closed, it will automatically press the wire, making the wire taking out operation simple and convenient, effectively solving the problems of difficult wire threading and cumbersome manual crimping operation.

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0027] To address the technical problem of inconvenient tube insertion and significantly reduced work efficiency caused by the need for tube adjusters to install conduits inside wire marking printers, this invention provides a tube clamping module for wire marking machines. This module can accommodate the normal printing of conduits of all sizes, ensuring normal printer operation and improving product printing stability. The conduit is fixed by pressing, and the clamping device automatically opens when the cover is opened and automatically clamps the conduit when the cover is closed. The tube removal operation is simple and convenient, solving problems such as difficult tube insertion and cumbersome manual tube clamping.
[0028] Please see Figures 1 to 5 The wire marking machine's crimping module consists of two main parts: the main unit 1 and the cover. The main unit 1 has a wire conduit channel 11 designed to accommodate the wire conduit 5. The cover is equipped with a crimping component 2, which applies pressure to the wire conduit 5. When the cover is closed onto the main unit 1, the crimping component 2 accurately and effectively presses down on the wire conduit 5 already placed in the wire conduit channel 11, ensuring that the wire conduit 5 maintains a stable and accurate position during use.
[0029] In this device, a pipe-pressing component 2 is provided on the cover. When the cover is closed on the main unit 1, the pipe-pressing component 2 can apply appropriate pressure to the conduit 5 that has been placed in the conduit channel 11 to fix the conduit by pressing. When it is necessary to open the cover to take out the conduit, the pipe-pressing component 2 can open automatically, and when the cover is closed, it will automatically press the conduit 5, making the pipe-taking operation simple and convenient, and effectively solving the problems of difficult pipe insertion and cumbersome manual pipe pressing operation.
[0030] Please see Figures 1 to 4 To facilitate the installation of the crimping fitting 2, in this embodiment, the crimping module of the wire marking machine also includes a crimping bracket 3. The crimping bracket 3 is disposed on the cover of the main unit 1. A rotating shaft is disposed on the crimping bracket 3. The rotating end of the crimping fitting 2 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft of the crimping bracket 3, so that it is connected to the cover through the crimping bracket 3.
[0031] Specifically, since the pressure tube bracket 3 is installed on the cover, as the cover is opened and closed, the pressure tube bracket 3 moves with the cover, forming a closed state and an open state respectively. When the cover is closed, the pressure tube bracket 3 moves and covers the conduit channel 11 of the host 1, forming the closed state. When the pressure tube bracket 3 is in the closed state, the pressure tube component 2 is placed inside the host 1 and above the conduit channel 11, forming the pressure tube state. When the cover is opened, the pressure tube bracket 3 moves and flips upwards towards the host 1, forming the open state. When the pressure tube bracket 3 is in the open state, the pressure tube component 2 is detached from the host 1, forming the detached state.
[0032] Please see Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments, the pressing component 2 includes a pressing block 21 with a rotating end and a pressing end that can rotate around the rotating end. The rotating end is rotatably connected to the cover. When the cover is closed, the pressing end corresponds to the wire tube channel 11 to press the wire tube inside the wire tube channel. The wire marking machine pressing module also includes an elastic element 4, which generates a spring force to drive one end of the pressing component to move towards the wire tube channel when the cover is closed, so that the pressing component presses the wire tube inside the wire tube channel. For wire tubes 5 of different diameters, the pressing component 2 can adaptively achieve positive pressing through the deformation angle of the elastic element 4 to ensure that the wire tubes 5 can be printed with the bottom facing down. Specifically, the rotating end of the pressing block 21 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft of the pressing bracket 3. The elastic element 4 includes a torsion spring 41, which is mounted on the rotating shaft of the pressure tube bracket 3. One end of the torsion spring 41 is connected to the rotating end of the pressure tube component 2. The rotating end of the pressure tube component 2 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft. When the cover is closed, the torsion spring 41 can generate a spring force that drives the pressure tube end of the pressure tube component to rotate around the rotating end toward the conduit channel 11, so that the pressure tube end presses the conduit inside the conduit channel 11.
[0033] When the cover is opened, the pressure block 21 is in an open position due to the torque of the torsion spring 41. When printing with the cover closed, the pressure tube support 3 closes, and the pressure block 21 contacts the tube 5 and begins to rotate clockwise. At this time, the torsion spring 41 applies a reverse force, and the pressure block 21 keeps the tube 5 pressed against the printing reference surface of the host 1, preventing the tube 5 from jumping up and down during printing. A brand-new vertical tube placement method is adopted, eliminating the use of the tube adjuster, making the tube placement operation very simple.
[0034] Furthermore, the clamping fitting 2 is provided in at least two sets, with the two sets of clamping fitting 2 corresponding to the inlet and outlet positions of the main body's upper conduit 5, respectively. This allows the clamping block 21 to press against the conduit 5 at the inlet and outlet positions, thereby achieving stable fixation and precise control of the conduit 5.
[0035] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the pressing end of the pressing block 21 is provided with mutually perpendicular curved sections. When the pressing component 2 presses against the conduit, the convex edge of the curved section abuts against the conduit in the conduit channel 11 to realize the pressing operation.
[0036] It should be noted that in other possible embodiments, the elastic element is not limited to this; the elastic element can also be a spring or a sheet, etc.
[0037] When printing the largest (25²) tube 5, the pressure block 21 may jam. Specifically, when the pressure block 21 contacts the tube 5, it makes perpendicular contact, and due to friction, it cannot rotate clockwise, causing it to jam. To avoid this jamming of the pressure block 21 during tube pressing, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figures 1 to 5In this embodiment, a guide post 22 with a cylindrical design is provided on one side of the pressing end of the pressing component 2 for easy sliding; a sliding groove 12 corresponding to the guide post 22 is provided on one side of the conduit channel 11 of the main unit 1. When the pressing component 2 moves from the disengaged state to the pressing state, the guide post 22 can enter the sliding groove 12 and slide along the sliding groove 12. Furthermore, before the guide post 22 enters the sliding groove 12, the pressing block 21 and the conduit remain in a separated state.
[0038] When the pressure tube support 3 is closed, the guide post 22 first contacts the slide groove 12. The slide groove 12 guides the pressure block 21 to start rotating clockwise. After a certain rotation angle is generated, the pressure block 21 then contacts the conduit 5, thus preventing jamming. The same applies when opening the cover. The slide groove 12 guides the guide post 22 to flip outward, ensuring that the pressure block 21 can work normally when the cover is opened.
[0039] Furthermore, to ensure the stability of the pressure block 21 during movement, the number of guide posts 22 and slide grooves 12 can be increased. In some other possible embodiments, two guide posts 22 are provided, respectively located on both sides of the pressure tube 2, and two slide grooves 12 are respectively provided on the main unit 1 at positions corresponding to the two guide posts 22.
[0040] This invention utilizes a main unit 1, a pressing component 2, and an elastic element 4. When the cover is closed, the pressing end of the pressing component 2 corresponds to the conduit channel 11. Simultaneously, when the cover is closed, the elastic element 4 generates a spring force that drives the pressing end to rotate around the rotating end towards the conduit channel 11, causing the pressing end to move towards the conduit channel 11 and thus press firmly onto the conduit within the conduit channel 11. This ensures that the pressing component 2 always presses the conduit 5 against the printing reference surface of the main unit 1, preventing the conduit 5 from bouncing up and down during printing. For conduits 5 of different diameters, the pressing component 2 can adaptively achieve positive pressing through the deformation angle of the elastic element 4, ensuring that the conduit 5 is always printed with the bottom facing down. This allows the device to adapt to the normal printing of conduits 5 of all sizes, ensuring normal printer operation and improving product printing stability. By fixing the conduit through pressing, the pressing component 2 automatically opens when the cover is opened and automatically presses the conduit 5 when the cover is closed, making the conduit removal operation simple and convenient, solving problems such as difficulty in threading the conduit and cumbersome manual pressing operations.
