TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a threading device field especially relates to an air threading device. BACKGROUND
[0002] An air threading device is a device that uses compressed air as a power source to push a wire harness through a conduit by a specific mechanical structure and aerodynamic principle, which is based on Bernoulli's principle. When compressed air passes through an air suction gun, the air flow speed in the air suction gun increases, and the increased flow speed leads to a decrease in pressure, forming a low-pressure area near the muzzle. The nylon rope is sucked in under the pressure difference between the external atmospheric pressure and this low-pressure area and enters the conduit with the airflow.
[0003] The existing construction site mostly uses steel wire traction threading, and the steel wire is in contact with the cable for a long time and moves relatively during the threading process. This hard contact and friction may affect the outer protective layer of the cable to some extent, causing minor scratches, wear, or local deformation. Although these damages may appear relatively minor in the initial stage and have little impact on the short-term performance of the cable, from the perspective of long-term stability and reliability, the overall mechanical strength and insulation performance of the cable will decrease over time and under the influence of complex environmental factors, bringing uncertainty and risk to the long-term stable operation of related engineering systems.
[0004] Therefore, to overcome the problem that the existing construction site mostly uses steel wire traction threading, and the steel wire is in contact with the cable, although it has little impact on the short-term performance of the cable initially, but in the long run, the outer protective layer of the cable will be damaged, causing scratches, wear, deformation, and reducing the mechanical strength and insulation performance, an air threading device can be designed to use Bernoulli's principle to form a low-pressure area in the air suction gun using an air compressor, so that the nylon rope is sucked in under the pressure difference between the external atmospheric pressure and this low-pressure area and enters the conduit with the airflow. SUMMARY
[0005] To overcome the problem that the existing construction site mostly uses steel wire traction threading, and the steel wire is in contact with the cable, although it has little impact on the short-term performance of the cable initially, but in the long run, the outer protective layer of the cable will be damaged, causing scratches, wear, deformation, and reducing the mechanical strength and insulation performance.
[0006] The utility model discloses a technical scheme for an air threading device, comprising an air blowing dust gun and a gas pressure assembly.
[0007] Preferably, the air compressor starts to operate, and it sucks air from the external environment through the air inlet pipe. Before the air enters the air compressor, it first passes through the air inlet filter box. The two sets of filter plates linearly installed at the top end of the air inlet filter box filter impurities such as dust and particulate matter in the air. The air compressed by the air compressor has its pressure increased, and then it is output through the air outlet pipe. When the air pressure in the air outlet pipe exceeds the safety threshold set by the safety valve, the safety valve will automatically open to release pressure. The air with strong air pressure output from the air outlet pipe enters the air blowing dust gun connected thereto. When the air blowing dust gun is aimed at the pipe that needs to be threaded, the air with strong air pressure acts on the wire harness, causing the wire harness to move forward along the pipe under the push of the air pressure.
[0008] Preferably, the air compressor is connected to an air outlet pipe on the side away from the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe. A gas pressure gauge is installed at the top end of the air outlet pipe. A plurality of first support columns are linearly installed at the bottom end of the air compressor. A first support plate is installed at the bottom end of the first support columns.
[0009] Preferably, a first mounting table is installed at the top end of the air compressor. A power motor is installed at the top end of the first mounting table. A second mounting table is installed on one side of the first mounting table.
[0010] Preferably, a wire harness rotating shaft and a second support column are linearly installed at the bottom end of the second mounting table. A second support plate is installed at the bottom end of the second support column. A control console is installed at the outer top end corner of the second support column.
[0011] Preferably, a handle is installed at the top end of the air blowing dust gun. A handle is installed at the bottom end of the air blowing dust gun. A hand rest is installed at the bottom end of the air blowing dust gun away from the handle.
[0012] Preferably, a wrench is installed at the bottom end of the handle of the air blowing dust gun. An air duct pipe is formed through one end of the air blowing dust gun. A threading pipe is connected to one side of the air blowing dust gun.
[0013] Preferably, a pipe plug is installed at one end of the threading pipe. A connecting pipe is connected to one end of the air blowing dust gun. A first sealing sleeve is sleeved on the outside of the connecting pipe. A guide pipe is connected to the other end of the air blowing dust gun. A second sealing sleeve is sleeved on the outside of the guide pipe.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: When using steel wire traction for threading, the steel wire and cable make direct, rigid contact and generate relative movement. Prolonged operation can easily cause scratches, wear, or localized deformation of the cable's outer protective layer. However, the air threading device uses compressed air to propel the cable bundle, resulting in a smoother contact between the bundle and the device's internal parts without severe friction. This significantly reduces the risk of damage to the cable's outer protective layer during threading, effectively maintaining the cable's integrity and ensuring its mechanical strength and insulation performance remain undamaged. This extends the cable's service life and improves the long-term stability and reliability of the entire electrical or communication system. Furthermore, in environments such as construction sites, steel wire traction threading inevitably introduces dust, particulate matter, and other impurities into the conduit and adheres to the cable surface, increasing the friction coefficient between the cable and the conduit. This not only affects the smoothness of threading but may also further exacerbate cable wear. The air threading device purifies the air through an air compressor intake filter box and filter plate, preventing impurities from entering the threading system and reducing the probability of cable damage caused by impurities, thus creating a cleaner threading environment for the cable.

[0025] In the process of working, when the air threading device is working, first, the power motor 215 starts to drive the air compressor 201 to start running. The external air enters the air compressor 201 through the air inlet pipe 211. Before this, the air needs to pass through the air inlet filter box 212 first. The two sets of filter plates 213 at the top of the air inlet filter box 212 can effectively filter the dust, impurities and the like in the air to prevent them from entering the interior of the air compressor 201 and causing damage to the equipment, ensuring the cleanliness of the compressed air. The air compressed by the air compressor 201 has its pressure increased and then output through the air outlet pipe. The safety valve 214 installed at one end of the exhaust pipe 216 monitors the air pressure at all times. Once the air pressure exceeds the set safety threshold, the safety valve 214 will automatically open to release pressure, ensuring the safe operation of the entire device. The air outlet pipe, which is in communication with the side of the air compressor 201 away from the air inlet pipe 211 and the exhaust pipe 216, transmits the air. The air pressure gauge 202 at the top of the air outlet pipe displays the current air pressure value in real time. The operator can accurately understand the pressure of the compressed air and make corresponding adjustments according to the actual threading requirements. The compressed air enters the air blowing dust gun 1 through the connecting pipe 106. The first level sealing sleeve 107 outside the connecting pipe 106 ensures that the air does not leak during transmission, ensuring the stability of the air pressure. After the air enters the air blowing dust gun 1, it will flow along the airway pipe 105. Under the directional guidance of the guide pipe 108, the compressed air flows to the threading pipe 110 along the predetermined path. The second level sealing sleeve 109 outside the guide pipe 108 also plays a role in preventing air leakage and protecting the internal structure.

With the help of the top handle 102, the operator can stably control the air blowing dust gun 1 and aim its muzzle at the line pipe inlet that needs to be threaded. Before threading, the operator removes the line pipe plug 111 from one end of the threading pipe 110 and places the prepared wire harness at the inlet of the threading pipe 110. When the compressed air acts on the wire harness through the threading pipe 110, the wire harness moves forward along the line pipe under the strong air pressure, thereby achieving the purpose of threading. During the entire threading process, the wire harness shaft 210 at the bottom of the second installation table 206 can orderly store and guide the unused wire harness, enabling it to smoothly enter the threading pipe 110 of the air blowing dust gun 1. At the same time, the control console 209 can centrally control and monitor the operating parameters of the air compressor 201. The operator can operate the start, stop and pressure adjustment of the air compressor 201 on the control console 209 according to the actual situation, ensuring that the entire air threading device operates efficiently and stably to successfully complete the threading task.
[0026] Through the above steps, the air compressor 201 starts to operate, which inhales air from the outside environment through the air inlet pipe 211, and the air passes through the air inlet filter box 212 before entering the air compressor 201. The two sets of filter plates 213 linearly installed at the top of the air inlet filter box 212 filter impurities such as dust and particulate matter in the air. The air compressed by the air compressor 201 has its pressure increased, and then is output through the exhaust pipe 216. When the air pressure in the exhaust pipe 216 exceeds the safety threshold set by the safety valve 214, the safety valve 214 will automatically open to release pressure. The air with strong air pressure output from the exhaust pipe 216 enters the air dust gun 1 connected thereto. When the air dust gun 1 is aimed at the wire pipe that needs to be threaded, the air with strong air pressure acts on the wire harness, so that the wire harness moves forward along the wire pipe under the push of the air pressure.
