Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model patent relates to the technical field of wire harness welding, and more specifically, to a cable stripping device for separating the core wire from the sheath. Background Technology

[0002] Cables are a general term for items such as optical cables and electrical cables, mainly used for connecting equipment, transmitting electricity, and many other purposes. Cables are very common in daily life, and due to their electrified nature, they require special care when connecting them.

[0003] When connecting cables, to allow current to flow smoothly, the sheathing at both ends of the cable needs to be stripped to expose the core wire, which acts as the current conductor, allowing the current to pass freely through the connected ends.

[0004] In existing technologies, cable stripping operations require a large amount of manual labor. Due to the limitations of manual operation, it is impossible to strip the cable sheath at the same location each time, and to apply pressure to the same depth to avoid damaging the core wire. This makes the core wire easy to damage, reduces production quality and increases costs. In addition, manual cable stripping also poses certain safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cable stripping device for separating the core wire from the sheath, aiming to solve the problem that the core wire is easily damaged during the manual stripping of the sheath in the prior art.

[0006] This invention is implemented by including a clamping structure that moves the cladding surrounding the core wire toward each other to form a pleated section of the cladding, and a piercing structure that pierces the pleated section to form an initial opening. The end of the core wire has an end section, and the end section has a section in which the cable is exposed at the initial opening. Above the exposed section is a rotating clamp that holds the exposed section and rotates it by a set angle to peel the end section from the cladding.

[0007] Furthermore, the clamp structure includes two movable clamps that move towards or away from each other, with the two movable clamps arranged at intervals; the two movable clamps clamp the cable and move towards each other, so that the cladding moves relative to the core wire, and the cladding protrudes to form the pleated section.

[0008] Furthermore, the bottom of the piercing structure has a tip that pierces the folded segment to form an initial opening.

[0009] Furthermore, the piercing structure includes longitudinally arranged barbs, the bottom of which has an inverted conical tip, the bottom of which forms the tip.

[0010] Furthermore, a lateral expander is provided above the pleated section, which inserts into the initial opening to enlarge its size.

[0011] Furthermore, the lateral expander includes two lateral support heads that move toward each other or away from each other. After the two lateral support heads are inserted into the initial opening, the two lateral support heads move away from each other to expand the initial opening.

[0012] Furthermore, the two lateral supports are arranged facing each other along the axial direction of the cable. After the two lateral supports are inserted into the initial opening, the two lateral supports move away from each other along the axial direction of the cable to enlarge the axial dimension of the initial opening.

[0013] Furthermore, a radial expander is provided above the pleated section, which is inserted into the initial opening and expands the radial dimension of the initial opening.

[0014] Furthermore, the radial expander includes two radial supports that move toward or away from each other. After the two radial supports are inserted into the initial opening, they move away from each other along the radial direction of the cable to increase the radial dimension of the cable.

[0015] Furthermore, the rotating chuck is connected to a rotating motor. When the rotating chuck holds the exposed section, the rotating motor drives the rotating chuck to rotate by a set angle.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the cable stripping device for separating the core wire from the sheath provided by this utility model, during the stripping process, causes the sheath to form folds at a predetermined position through the opposing movement of the clamp structure, providing a clear operating point for piercing the structure. This helps to accurately control the stripping position and reduces unnecessary pulling and pressure on the core wire, thereby effectively avoiding possible damage to the core wire during the stripping process.

[0017] Next, the puncture creates an initial opening in the folded section, providing exposure for the core wire. This ensures that the stripping action does not directly affect the core wire or other parts of the sheath, improving the core wire's security.

[0018] Finally, the rotating chuck holding the exposed section can rotate at a preset angle to precisely separate the end section from the cladding. This not only simplifies the stripping operation, but also reduces the uncertainty and possible errors of manual operation through automated control, further reducing the risk of damage to the core wire during the stripping process, making the stripping process more efficient and safe.

[0027] A cable stripping device for separating the core wire from the sheath includes a clamping structure that moves the sheath 100 wrapped around the core wire 400 toward each other to form a pleated section 103 in the sheath 100, and a piercing structure that pierces the pleated section 103 to form an initial opening 102. The end of the core wire 400 has an end section 401, and the end section 401 has an exposed section 402 of the cable in the initial opening 102. A rotating clamp 202 is provided above the exposed section 402 to clamp the exposed section 402 and rotate it by a set angle to separate the end section 401 from the sheath 100.

[0028] The cable stripping device provided above for separating the core wire from the sheath, during the stripping process, causes the sheath 100 to form folds at a predetermined position through the opposing movement of the clamp structure, providing a clear operating point for piercing the structure. This helps to accurately control the stripping position and reduces unnecessary pulling and pressure on the core wire 400, thereby effectively avoiding potential damage to the core wire 400 during the stripping process.

[0029] Following this, the puncture creates an initial opening 102 on the folded section 103, providing exposure for the core wire 400. This ensures that the stripping action does not directly affect the core wire 400 or other parts of the sheath 100, thus improving the safety of the core wire 400.

[0030] Finally, the rotating chuck 202 holding the exposed section 402 can rotate at a preset angle to precisely separate the end section 401 from the cladding 100. This not only simplifies the stripping operation, but also reduces the uncertainty and possible errors of manual operation through automated control, further reducing the risk of damage to the core wire 400 during the stripping process, making the stripping process more efficient and safe.

[0031] In this embodiment, the clamp structure includes two movable clamps 204 that move toward or away from each other, and the two movable clamps 204 are arranged at intervals; the two movable clamps 204 clamp the cable and move toward each other so that the sheath 100 moves relative to the core wire 400, and the sheath 100 protrudes to form a pleated section 103.

[0032] This allows the cladding 100 to separate from the core wire 400 under controlled conditions, forming a pleated segment 103, which provides a clear starting point for subsequent stripping work. By precisely controlling the movement of the clamp, unnecessary pulling and damage to the core wire 400 can be avoided, ensuring the safety and accuracy of the stripping process.

[0033] In this embodiment, the bottom of the piercing structure has a tip 302 that pierces the folded section 103 to form an initial opening 102. The tip 302 precisely penetrates the folded section 103 to form the initial opening 102, which lays the foundation for further stripping work and reduces potential damage to the core wire 400, ensuring the safety and efficiency of the stripping process.

[0034] In this embodiment, the piercing structure includes longitudinally arranged barbs 300. The bottom of the barbs 300 has an inverted conical head 301, and the bottom of the head 301 forms a tip 302. The inverted conical head 301 design helps to concentrate the force on a single point, making the piercing action more precise and effective.

[0035] In this embodiment, a lateral expander is provided above the pleated section 103, which is inserted into the initial opening 102 to enlarge the size of the initial opening 102. In this way, the precise control and enlargement of the size of the initial opening 102 provides the necessary space for the core wire 400 to be exposed.

[0036] In this embodiment, the lateral expander includes two lateral support heads that move toward each other or move apart. After the two lateral support heads are inserted into the initial opening 102, the two lateral support heads move apart to expand the initial opening 102. By moving apart, the size of the initial opening 102 can be expanded uniformly and precisely, further reducing damage to the core wire 400 during the stripping process.

[0037] In this embodiment, two lateral support heads are arranged facing each other along the axial direction of the cable. After the two lateral support heads are inserted into the initial opening 102, the two lateral support heads move away from each other along the axial direction of the cable to enlarge the axial dimension of the initial opening 102. In this way, the axial away movement can uniformly enlarge the axial dimension of the initial opening 102, making the end section 401 of the core wire 400 more exposed.

[0038] In this embodiment, a radial expander 200 is provided above the pleated section 103, which is inserted into the initial opening 102 and expands the radial dimension of the initial opening 102. In this way, the radial dimension of the initial opening 102 is precisely controlled and expanded, providing a wider space for the core wire 400 to be exposed, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of stripping.

[0039] In this embodiment, the radial spreader 200 includes two radial support heads 201 that move toward each other or move apart. After the two radial support heads 201 are inserted into the initial opening 102, they move apart along the radial direction of the cable to expand the radial dimension of the cable. In this way, the radially separate movement can uniformly expand the radial dimension of the initial opening 102, making the end section 401 of the core wire 400 more exposed.

[0040] In this embodiment, the rotating chuck 202 is connected to the rotating motor 203. When the rotating chuck 202 holds the exposed section 402, the rotating motor 203 drives the rotating chuck 202 to rotate at a set angle. Through automated rotation control, the rotating chuck 202 can be precisely rotated to the set angle, thereby achieving precise peeling of the core wire 400 from the cladding 100. This reduces the uncertainty and possible errors of manual operation and solves the problem that the core wire 400 is easily damaged during the manual peeling of the cladding 100.

[0041] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
