Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tooling technology, specifically relating to a semi-steel cable straightening mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, semi-steel cables require straightening after production. Traditional straightening methods involve manual straightening, which yields unsatisfactory results, is labor-intensive, and inefficient. Therefore, a semi-steel cable straightening mechanism has been designed to address these issues.
[0003] It should be noted that the above introduction to the technical background is only for the purpose of providing a clear and complete explanation of the technical solutions of this utility model and facilitating understanding by those skilled in the art. It should not be assumed that these technical solutions are known to those skilled in the art simply because they have been described in the background section of this utility model. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a semi-steel cable straightening mechanism.
[0005] To achieve the above and other related objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is: a semi-steel cable straightening mechanism, including a mounting base plate, on which an end clamping unit and a straightening unit are provided. The end clamping unit includes a first end clamping unit and a second end clamping unit, and the straightening unit includes a first straightening unit and a second straightening unit arranged adjacent to each other. The first end clamping unit and the second end clamping unit are respectively arranged on both sides of the straightening unit; with the cable to be straightened as the center line, the first straightening unit is arranged at a 90° angle relative to the second straightening unit.
[0006] The end clamping unit includes a first mounting base, on which two opposing first mounting slots are provided. Each of the first mounting slots is provided with a movable first fixing block, and the upper end of the first fixing block is provided with a rotatable first wheel.
[0007] The straightening unit includes a mounting base, on which a first mounting plate is provided. A row of second wheels is provided on the first mounting plate along its length. A second mounting plate that can move back and forth along the width direction of the first mounting plate is provided between the first mounting plate and the mounting base. A row of second mounting slots is provided on the second mounting plate along its length. Each of the second mounting slots is provided with a movable second fixing block. Each of the second fixing blocks has a rotatable third wheel at its upper end.
[0008] In this scheme, before straightening, the semi-steel cable first passes between the two first wheels of the first end clamping unit. Then, the semi-steel cable passes sequentially between the second and third wheels of the first straightening unit and the second straightening unit. Finally, the semi-steel cable passes between the two first wheels of the second end clamping unit. By manually pulling the cable, the cable is forcibly straightened by the wheels in the left-right and up-down directions, achieving the purpose of straightening.
[0009] Furthermore, the wheel surfaces of the second and third wheels are located on the same plane, and the second and third wheels are arranged in a staggered manner along the length of the cable. In this design, the staggered arrangement of the second and third wheels allows for a smaller spacing between the calibration points of the cable, resulting in better calibration performance.
[0010] Furthermore, the second mounting plate and the mounting base are movably connected via guide rails, and at least two guide rails are provided and arranged parallel to each other. In this design, the guide rails between the second mounting plate and the mounting base facilitate the movement of the second mounting plate on the mounting base, and increasing the number of guide rails increases the stability of the guide rail operation.
[0011] Furthermore, the second mounting plate is provided with a rotatable eccentric wheel, which, along with the third wheel, is distributed on both sides of the first mounting plate, and the eccentric wheel is positioned in contact with the first mounting plate. In this design, the rotation of the eccentric wheel allows for a change in the width direction of the second mounting plate relative to the first mounting plate, thereby completing the crimping of the cable.
[0012] Furthermore, the eccentric wheel is equipped with a handle. In this design, the handle facilitates worker operation, making it convenient and quick.
[0013] Furthermore, a step is provided on one side of the second mounting plate where the second mounting groove is located. This step can abut against the first mounting plate as the second mounting plate moves. In this design, when the third wheel on the second mounting plate moves towards the direction of the first mounting plate, the step acts as a limit, preventing the wheel from pressing the cable too tightly.
[0014] Furthermore, a first adjusting plate is provided on the outer side of the first mounting slot, and a first adjusting bolt, equal in number to the first wheel, is provided on the outer side of the first adjusting plate. The first adjusting bolts pass through the first adjusting plate and connect to the first fixing block. Similarly, a second adjusting plate is provided on the outer side of the second mounting slot, and a second adjusting bolt, equal in number to the third wheel, is provided on the outer side of the second adjusting plate. Each second adjusting bolt passes through the second adjusting plate and connects to its corresponding second fixing block. In this design, rotating the adjusting bolts moves the fixing blocks within the mounting slot, allowing for fine-tuning and adjusting the degree of pressure of the wheels on the cable, resulting in better straightening.
[0015] Furthermore, the first, second, and third wheel bodies are all equipped with wheel sleeves, and a groove is formed around the center of the outer periphery of each wheel sleeve. In this design, the groove on the wheel sleeve facilitates securing the cable, ensuring that the cable remains in a relatively stable state during the straightening process.
[0016] Furthermore, the first wheel body, the second wheel body, and the third wheel body are detachably connected to the wheel sleeve. In this design, the grooves on the wheel sleeve are designed according to the specifications of the semi-steel cable, allowing for wheel sleeves of different specifications to match semi-steel cables of different specifications. The detachable design of the wheel sleeve facilitates the replacement of wheel sleeve specifications.
[0017] Furthermore, the first, second, and third wheel bodies are all bearings. In this design, bearings roll more smoothly than traditional rollers. Rollers are prone to sliding friction with the cable, while bearings ensure rolling friction, facilitating cable transmission.
[0018] Due to the application of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows:
[0019] The semi-steel cable straightening mechanism designed in this utility model can place the semi-steel cable in the end clamping unit and the straightening unit. By manually pulling the cable, the cable is forcibly straightened by the wheels in the left-right and up-down directions to achieve the purpose of straightening. Compared with the existing manual straightening method, it improves efficiency, reduces assembly fatigue, and also ensures the straightening effect of the cable. Attached Figure Description

[0032] Example:
[0033] See appendix Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a semi-steel cable straightening mechanism, including a mounting base plate 1. The mounting base plate 1 is provided with an end clamping unit and a straightening unit. The end clamping unit includes a first end clamping unit 2 and a second end clamping unit 3. The straightening unit includes a first straightening unit 4 and a second straightening unit 5 arranged adjacent to each other. The first end clamping unit 2 and the second end clamping unit 3 are respectively arranged on both sides of the straightening unit. With the cable to be straightened as the center line, the first straightening unit 4 is rotated at a 90° angle relative to the second straightening unit 5.
[0034] See appendix Figure 5 As shown, the end clamping unit includes a first mounting base 6, on which two opposing first mounting slots 7 are provided. Each of the first mounting slots 7 is provided with a movable first fixing block 8, and the upper end of the first fixing block 8 is provided with a rotatable first wheel 9.
[0035] See appendix Figure 2As shown, the straightening unit includes a mounting base 12, on which a first mounting plate 13 is provided. A row of second wheels 14 is provided on the first mounting plate 13 along its length direction. A second mounting plate 15 that can move back and forth along the width direction of the first mounting plate 13 is provided between the first mounting plate 13 and the mounting base 12. A row of second mounting grooves 16 is provided on the second mounting plate 15 along its length direction. Each of the second mounting grooves 16 is provided with a movable second fixing block 17. Each of the second fixing blocks 17 has a rotatable third wheel 18 at its upper end.
[0036] The directions along the length of the mounting base 1 are designated as left and right; the directions along the width of the mounting base 1 are designated as front and back; and the directions along the thickness of the mounting base 1 are designated as up and down. See the appendix for specific directions. Figure 1 .
[0037] In the first straightening unit 4, the second wheel body 14 and the third wheel body 18 are placed one in front of the other. In the second straightening unit 5, the second wheel body 14 and the third wheel body 18 are placed one above the other.
[0038] Before straightening, the semi-steel cable first passes between the two first wheels 9 of the first end clamping unit 2, then passes sequentially between the second wheels 14 and the third wheels 18 of the first straightening unit 4 and the second straightening unit 5, and finally passes between the two first wheels 9 of the second end clamping unit 3. By manually pulling the cable, the cable is forcibly straightened by the wheels in the left-right and up-down directions to achieve the purpose of straightening.
[0039] See appendix Figure 2 and attached Figure 4 As shown, the wheel surface of the second wheel 14 and the wheel surface of the third wheel 18 are set on the same plane, and the second wheel 14 and the third wheel 18 are arranged in a staggered manner along the length of the cable. The staggered arrangement of the second wheel 14 and the third wheel 18 allows the spacing between the calibration points of the cable to be smaller, resulting in better calibration effect.
[0040] See appendix Figure 3 As shown, the second mounting plate 15 and the mounting base 12 are movably connected by guide rails 19, and at least two guide rails 19 are provided and arranged parallel to each other. The guide rails 19 between the second mounting plate 15 and the mounting base 12 facilitate the movement of the second mounting plate 15 on the mounting base 12, and increasing the number of guide rails 19 can increase the stability of the guide rails 19 during operation.
[0041] See appendix Figure 2 and attached Figure 4As shown, a rotatable eccentric wheel 20 is provided on the second mounting plate 15. The eccentric wheel 20 and the third wheel body 18 are distributed on both sides of the first mounting plate 13, and the eccentric wheel 20 is positioned in contact with the first mounting plate 13. By rotating the eccentric wheel 20, the position of the second mounting plate 15 relative to the first mounting plate 13 in the width direction can be changed, thereby completing the crimping of the cable. The eccentric wheel 20 is provided with a handle 21. The handle 21 facilitates operation by workers, making it convenient and quick.
[0042] See appendix Figure 2 and attached Figure 4 As shown, a step 22 is provided on the side of the second mounting plate 15 where the second mounting groove 16 is located. The step 22 can abut against the first mounting plate 13 as the second mounting plate 15 moves. When the third wheel 18 on the second mounting plate 15 moves in the direction of the first mounting plate 13, the step 22 can act as a limit to prevent the wheel from pressing the cable too tightly.
[0043] See appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 5 and attached Figure 6 As shown, a first adjusting plate 10 is provided on the outer side of the first mounting groove 7, and a first adjusting bolt 11, equal in number to the first wheel body 9, is provided on the outer side of the first adjusting plate 10.

A second adjusting plate 23 is provided on the outer side of the second mounting groove 16, and a second adjusting bolt 24, equal in number to the third wheel body 18, is provided on the outer side of the second adjusting plate 23. Each second adjusting bolt 24 passes through the second adjusting plate 23 and connects to its corresponding second fixing block 17. By rotating the adjusting bolts, the fixing blocks can be moved within the mounting groove, which can achieve a fine-tuning effect, adjusting the degree of compression of the wheel body on the cable, and achieving a better straightening effect.
[0044] See appendix Figure 6 As shown, the first wheel body 9, the second wheel body 14, and the third wheel body 18 are all equipped with wheel sleeves 25, and a groove 26 is formed around the center of the outer periphery of the wheel sleeve 25. The groove 26 on the wheel sleeve 25 facilitates cable clamping, ensuring the cable remains in a relatively stable state during straightening. The first wheel body 9, the second wheel body 14, and the third wheel body 18 are detachably connected to the wheel sleeve 25. The groove 26 on the wheel sleeve 25 is designed according to the specifications of the semi-steel cable, allowing for the use of different specifications of wheel sleeves 25 to match different specifications of semi-steel cables. The detachable design of the wheel sleeve 25 facilitates the replacement of different specifications. The first wheel body 9, the second wheel body 14, and the third wheel body 18 are all bearings. Compared to traditional rollers, bearings provide smoother rolling, preventing sliding friction between rollers and cables. Using bearings ensures smooth rolling friction, facilitating cable transmission.
