Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of fishing gear manufacturing equipment, specifically to a braiding machine for weaving top knot ropes on fishing lines. Background Technology

[0002] To enhance the connection between the fishing line and the rod tip line, a top knot made of high-strength or polyethylene line is often installed on the main line. This top knot forms a loop that connects to the rod tip line and is then secured with a locking bead. However, in existing systems, the top knot is made separately from the main line, requiring the tip of the main line to pass through it. This results in a relatively loose connection between the main line and the top knot. The tip of the main line is then glued or fused to the end of the top knot closest to the tip of the fishing line, placing the top knot at the top of the main line while the other end rests on the main line. If glued or fused to secure the other end of the top knot... If the top knot is not fixed, it will damage the strength of the main line, and the top knot will lose its meaning. Therefore, in the existing technology, the end of the top knot that is not fixed to the top of the main line can slide on the main line, which leads to a serious problem: the locking bead needs to lock the loop formed by the top knot, so the locking bead is placed on the top knot and the locking bead is elastic. Once the locking bead slides off the top knot onto the main line, the perforation of the locking bead changes elastically and the aperture shrinks. Since the end of the top knot that is close to the main line cannot be fixed to the main line, it becomes very difficult to push the locking bead back onto the top knot from the main line. The locking bead cannot be reset and thus fails. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a braiding machine for weaving top knot ropes on fishing lines. This application provides the following technical solution:

[0004] It includes a line clamp for holding and straightening fishing line, and a weaving device for weaving a top knot on the fishing line, the weaving device including a looping mechanism for looping on the fishing line and a propulsion mechanism for pushing the looping mechanism to translate along the fishing line.

[0005] The wire clamp includes fixed rods disposed on both sides of the braiding device, and wire clamping blocks are disposed on the fixed rods. A wire clamping plate is slidably connected to the side of the wire clamping block.

[0006] The loop weaving mechanism includes a turntable and a rotary motor for driving the turntable to rotate. The turntable has a through hole in the middle for passing the fishing line through. The turntable is provided with a weaving rod and a weaving head. The weaving head is close to the through hole and is used to pass the weaving line on the weaving rod and guide the weaving line to the fishing line.

[0007] The propulsion mechanism includes a mounting plate on which the turntable and the rotary motor are installed. One side of the mounting plate is slidably mounted on a guide rod and connected to a slider of a lead screw guide rail. The lead screw guide rail is driven by a servo motor that drives the slider to slide.

[0008] A tensioner for tightening the yarn is provided between the yarn bar and the yarn head.

[0009] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0010] A line clamp is used to straighten and fix the fishing line. Then, a braiding device is used to directly braid a layer of line similar to a top knot on the fishing line. The line is directly braided onto the fishing line and is tightly connected with it, providing sufficient friction. After one end of the line is fixed to the fishing line, the connection between the line and the fishing line is stable. Even if the locking bead slips off the line onto the fishing line, it can be easily slid back onto the line because the connection between the line and the fishing line is tight and stable enough.

[0019] Please refer to Figure 1-2 As shown, a braiding machine for weaving a top knot rope on a fishing line provided by this utility model includes a line clamp 1 for clamping and straightening the fishing line, and a braiding device 2 for weaving a top knot rope on the fishing line. The braiding device 2 includes a looping mechanism 21 for weaving loops on the fishing line and a propulsion mechanism 22 for pushing the looping mechanism 21 to translate along the fishing line.

[0020] The line clamp 1 includes a fixed rod 11 disposed on both sides of the braiding device 2. A line clamping block 12 is disposed on the fixed rod 11. A line clamping plate 13 is slidably connected to the side of the line clamping block 12. A threaded rod is sleeved on the line clamping plate 13. The threaded rod is threadedly engaged with the threaded hole on the line clamping block 12. By turning the threaded rod into the threaded hole, the line clamping plate 13 moves closer to the line clamping block 12 to hold the fishing line.

[0021] The loop weaving mechanism 21 includes a turntable 211 and a rotary motor 214 for driving the turntable 211 to rotate. The turntable 211 has a through hole in the middle for passing the fishing line through. The turntable 211 is provided with a weaving rod 212 and a weaving head 213. The weaving head 213 is close to the through hole and is used to thread the weaving line on the weaving rod 212 and guide the weaving line to the fishing line.

[0022] The turntable 211 is divided into two rotating parts and a base part. The rotating parts are rotatably mounted on the base part. The rotating motor 214 drives the rotating parts to rotate relative to the base. The yarn feed bar 212 and the yarn head 213 are both fixed to the rotating parts. The base part is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 221.

[0023] The propulsion mechanism 22 includes a mounting plate 221 on which a turntable 211 and a rotary motor 214 are mounted. One side of the mounting plate 221 is slidably mounted on a guide rod 222 and connected to a slider of a lead screw guide rail 223. The lead screw guide rail 223 is connected to a servo motor 224 that drives the slider to slide.

[0024] A tensioner (not shown in the figure) for tightening the yarn is provided between the yarn bar 212 and the yarn head 213.

[0025] The tensioner uses a commonly used tensioner in existing textile equipment, and its structure and principle are common knowledge to those skilled in the art.

[0026] Furthermore, to facilitate the gluing or melting of the woven layer to the fishing line after the woven layer is completed, a glue applicator or igniter is provided below the woven line end 213, and the glue applicator or igniter is fixed on the turntable 211.

[0027] In practice, the fishing line is passed through the through hole in the middle of the turntable 221. The line is then straightened and placed between the clamping block 12 and the clamping plate 13 of the line clamp 1, bringing them close together to clamp the line. The end of the line protruding from the weaving head 213 is then tied to the fishing line, and the knot is tightened using the line clamp 1, ensuring the line remains straight. The rotary motor 214 and the servo motor 224 are then started. The rotary motor 214 drives the turntable 211 to rotate, causing the weaving head 213 to... The yarn bar 212 rotates around the fishing line. Under the tension of the tensioner, the yarn is tightly wound around the fishing line. As the servo motor 224 drives the lead screw of the lead screw guide to rotate, the slider of the lead screw guide slides along the lead screw, and drives the mounting plate 221 and the turntable on the mounting plate 221 to move along the fishing line, so that the yarn forms a tight spiral on the fishing line, forming a yarn protective layer. After the protective layer is long enough, the tail end of the yarn protective layer is glued or melted using an igniter or glue applicator.

[0028] Although embodiments of this application have been shown and described above, it is understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting this application. Those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of this application.
