[0002] Automotive wiring harnesses are the main mesh of automotive circuits. They connect the electrical and electronic components of a car and enable them to function. Without wiring harnesses, there would be no automotive circuits.

[0003] Chinese patent CN107161723A discloses a utility model patent for "a wire harness collecting device". In this patent, the wire harness falls into the wire harness collecting box through a chute. Due to the vibration of the wire harness collecting box by the spring, most of the wire harness is concentrated in the middle of the wire harness collecting box. Thus, when the middle of the wire harness collecting box is full, the entire wire harness collecting box needs to be replaced and the new wire harness collecting box is placed at the lower end of the chute, which increases the workload of the operator. Moreover, each time a new wire harness collecting box is replaced, the wire harness may accidentally fall onto the workbench due to untimely connection. This is a shortcoming of the prior art.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model. The present utility model will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0020] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a finished wire harness collection device includes a conveying mechanism 1 for transporting the wire harness. A material chute 2 is provided at the outlet of the conveying mechanism 1. A guiding mechanism is provided within the material chute 2. The guiding mechanism includes a first guiding plate 41 and a second guiding plate 42. Both the first guiding plate 41 and the second guiding plate 42 are arranged parallel to the side wall 43 of the material chute 2. The first guiding plate 41 is driven to rotate by a first motor (not shown in the figure), and the second guiding plate 42 is driven to rotate by a second motor 48. A collection mechanism 3 is provided at the outlet of the material chute 2. Figure 3 As shown, when the first motor / second motor starts, it will drive the first guide plate to rotate downwards / the second guide plate to rotate upwards, thereby changing the movement path of the wire harness, so that the wire harness is not only transported to the middle of the collection mechanism, but also to both sides of the collection mechanism.

[0021] Specifically, the conveying mechanism 1 uses a conveyor belt commonly used in existing technologies.

[0022] In this utility model, the conveying mechanism 1 is used to convey the finished wire harness forward to the sliding trough 2. The guiding mechanism in the sliding trough 2 can flexibly control the rotation direction of the wire harness, so that the wire harness can fall evenly into the collecting mechanism 3. The collecting mechanism 3 is responsible for the final collection of the wire harness.

[0023] Furthermore, the output shaft of the first motor is connected to the first rotating shaft 44, the first rotating shaft 44 is fixed to the first connecting plate 45, and the first connecting plate is fixed to the first guide plate 41. Driven by the first motor, the first connecting plate 45 is moved towards... Figure 3 The second motor 48 rotates downwards as shown. The output shaft of the second motor 48 is connected to the second rotating shaft 46, the second rotating shaft 46 is fixed to the second connecting plate 47, and the second connecting plate is fixed to the second guide plate 42. Driven by the second motor 48, the second connecting plate 47 is driven to rotate downwards as shown. Figure 3 Rotate upwards as shown.

[0024] Furthermore, the collection mechanism 3 includes a collection box, the bottom of which is fixed with a vibration motor 5. The collection box is connected to the support frame 7 via a spring 6. The collection box is responsible for receiving the wire harnesses that slide down from the chute 2. The vibration motor 5 at its bottom allows the collection box to generate slight vibrations, which helps the wire harnesses to be distributed more evenly and compactly within the box, avoiding excessive local accumulation.

[0025] Furthermore, a set of partition plates 31 are provided inside the collection box. The partition plates 31 are arranged parallel to the axis of the conveying mechanism 1. The partition plates 31 cooperate with the guiding mechanism so that the wire harness enters the different partitions inside the collection box under the action of the guiding mechanism, which improves the uniformity of the wire harness distribution. At the same time, the design of the partition plates 31 can also enhance the stability of the entire collection box.

[0026] Furthermore, a support shaft 9 is provided at the bottom of the collection box, and a bracket 8 is provided at the bottom of the support shaft 9. The spring 6 is located between the bracket 8 and the support frame 7, so that the collection box can have a certain buffer space when vibrating, which further enhances the dispersion effect of the wire harness in the collection box.

[0027] Furthermore, the material chute 2 is inclined, with an inclination angle ≤ 45°. The wire harness can slide down naturally under the action of gravity, without the need for additional pushing or pulling force, which saves energy and improves efficiency.

[0028] In use, the wire harness is first placed on the conveyor mechanism 1 for transport. The harness passes through the chute and enters the collection box of the collection mechanism 3, with most of the harness located in the middle of the box. Then, the first motor / second motor 48 is activated, causing the first guide plate 41 / second guide plate 42 to rotate. This rotation provides a diagonal path for the wire harness, causing it to deflect upwards / downwards and fall to either side of the collection box. Simultaneously, the vibration of the vibrating motor 5 further ensures a more even and compact distribution of the harness. Once the collection box is completely filled, a new collection box can be used for further wire harness collection.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
