Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable production technology, and in particular to a tension control device for cable production. Background Technology

[0002] Cables are made of one or more mutually insulated conductors and an outer insulating protective layer. Their main purpose is to transmit electricity or information from one place to another. Cables can be divided into various types depending on the field of use, but regardless of the type, they need to be wound during the production process, so cable production winding equipment is required.

[0003] Currently, the cable winding equipment commonly used in the market is not convenient for tension adjustment, which causes inconvenience in the winding production process. As a result, multiple tension devices are required when winding cables of different specifications, thereby increasing the cost of cable production.

[0004] To address these shortcomings, we have proposed a tension control device for cable production. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a tension control device for cable production.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a tension control device for cable production, comprising a device body and a mounting plate. A mounting frame is mounted on the top surface of the device body. An adjusting mechanism is mounted at the top inside the mounting frame. A mounting block is disposed inside the adjusting mechanism. The mounting block is fixed to the top inside the mounting frame. A bidirectional lead screw is movably mounted on the surface of the mounting block. The bidirectional lead screw is driven by a stepper motor. Threaded sleeves are symmetrically spirally connected to the surface of the bidirectional lead screw. A second mounting seat is disposed at the bottom end of the threaded sleeve. A first mounting seat is disposed on the top surface of the mounting plate. An adjusting rod is movably mounted between the first and second mounting seats. A mounting shaft is disposed at the bottom end of the mounting plate. An adjusting block is disposed inside the mounting shaft. An arc-shaped groove is formed at the bottom end of the adjusting block. A pressure sensor is installed on the inner wall, and an adjustment mechanism is set up to facilitate the adjustment of the tension during cable production and winding. During operation, the operator first connects one end of the cable to the winding mechanism by passing it around the limiting mechanism, and then starts the winding mechanism to wind up the cable. During the winding process, a stepper motor can be started, which drives the bidirectional lead screw to rotate. The threaded sleeve then moves on the surface of the bidirectional lead screw. During the movement of the threaded sleeve, the adjusting rod drives the mounting plate to move downward, which in turn causes the mounting plate to move the adjusting block at the bottom to squeeze the cable. Then the cable comes into contact with the pressure sensor inside the arc groove, thereby detecting the pressure generated by the cable. At this time, the pressure on the cable is also the tension, thus completing the adjustment of the cable collection tension. This method is simple to operate and facilitates the winding of the cable.

[0007] Preferably, the mounting frame surface is provided with a limiting mechanism, the limiting mechanism is provided with a limiting rod inside, and a limiting roller is movably mounted on the surface of the limiting rod. There are two sets of limiting mechanisms, and the two sets of limiting mechanisms are symmetrically installed about the center line of the mounting frame. By setting the limiting mechanism, when the cable is transported, the cable can be pulled onto the limiting rollers inside the two sets of limiting mechanisms, so that the two limiting rollers limit the transport of the cable. This method is simple to operate and facilitates the subsequent adjustment of cable tension by the adjusting block, thereby improving its stability.

[0008] Preferably, the mounting bracket has a slide rail at its top, and the threaded sleeve has a slider at its top. The slider is slidably connected to the slide rail. By using the slider and the slide rail in cooperation, the movement of the threaded sleeve can be limited, preventing the threaded sleeve from rotating with the rotation of the bidirectional lead screw.

[0009] Preferably, the device body has a vertical plate inside, and a winding mechanism is installed on the surface of the vertical plate. By setting up the winding mechanism, it is convenient to collect the produced cables.

[0010] Preferably, the adjusting block is located on the center line of the two sets of limiting mechanisms. By setting the adjusting block on the center line of the two sets of limiting mechanisms, it is convenient to ensure the uniformity of subsequent cable tension adjustment.

[0011] Preferably, a controller is installed on the top surface of the mounting bracket, which facilitates the control of the electrical components inside the device body.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] (1) This utility model, by setting an adjustment mechanism, facilitates the adjustment of tension during cable production and winding. During operation, the operator first connects one end of the cable to the winding mechanism by passing it around the limiting mechanism, then starts the winding mechanism, and the winding mechanism winds up the cable. During the winding process, a stepper motor can be started, and the stepper motor drives the bidirectional lead screw to rotate. Then, the threaded sleeve moves on the surface of the bidirectional lead screw. During the movement of the threaded sleeve, the adjusting rod drives the mounting plate to move downward, thereby causing the mounting plate to drive the adjusting block at the bottom to squeeze the cable. Then, the cable contacts the pressure sensor inside the arc groove, thereby detecting the pressure generated by the cable. At this time, the pressure on the cable is also tension, thus completing the adjustment of the cable collection tension. This method is simple to operate and facilitates the winding of the cable. By setting a limiting mechanism, when the cable is transported, the limiting rollers inside the two sets of limiting mechanisms can be placed on the cable to limit the transport of the cable. This method is simple to operate and facilitates the subsequent adjustment block to limit the cable tension, improving its stability. Attached Figure Description

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] See Figure 1-5A tension control device for cable production includes a device body 1 and a mounting plate 14. A mounting frame 4 is mounted on the top surface of the device body 1. An adjusting mechanism 8 is mounted at the top inside the mounting frame 4. A mounting block 9 is disposed inside the adjusting mechanism 8 and is fixed to the top inside the mounting frame 4. A bidirectional lead screw 11 is movably mounted on the surface of the mounting block 9. The bidirectional lead screw 11 is driven by a stepper motor 13. Threaded sleeves 12 are symmetrically helically connected to the surface of the bidirectional lead screw 11. A second mounting seat 17 is disposed at the bottom end of the threaded sleeve 12. A first mounting seat 15 is disposed on the top surface of the mounting plate 14. An adjusting rod 16 is movably mounted between the first mounting seat 15 and the second mounting seat 17. A mounting shaft 18 is disposed at the bottom end of the mounting plate 14. An adjusting block 19 is disposed inside the mounting shaft 18. An arc-shaped groove 20 is formed at the bottom end of the adjusting block 19. The inner wall of the arc-shaped groove 20... A pressure sensor 21 is installed, and an adjustment mechanism 8 is set up to facilitate the adjustment of the tension during cable production and winding. During operation, the operator first connects one end of the cable to the winding mechanism 3 by passing it around the limiting mechanism 6, and then starts the winding mechanism 3 to wind up the cable. During the winding process, the stepper motor 13 can be started, which drives the bidirectional lead screw 11 to rotate. Then, the threaded sleeve 12 moves on the surface of the bidirectional lead screw 11. During the movement of the threaded sleeve 12, the adjusting rod 16 drives the mounting plate 14 to move downward, so that the mounting plate 14 drives the adjusting block 19 at the bottom to squeeze the cable. Then, the cable comes into contact with the pressure sensor 21 inside the arc groove 20, thereby detecting the pressure generated by the cable. At this time, the pressure on the cable is also the tension, thus completing the adjustment of the cable collection tension. This method is simple to operate and facilitates the winding of the cable.

[0025] The working principle of the tension control device for cable production provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0026] During operation, the operator first connects one end of the cable to the winding mechanism 3 via the limiting mechanism 6. Then, the winding mechanism 3 is started, and it winds the cable. During winding, the stepper motor 13 can be started, driving the bidirectional lead screw 11 to rotate. This causes the threaded sleeve 12 to move on the surface of the bidirectional lead screw 11. As the threaded sleeve 12 moves, the adjusting rod 16 drives the mounting plate 14 downwards, causing the mounting plate 14 to press the cable against the adjusting block 19 at its bottom. The cable then... The pressure sensor 21 inside the groove 20 contacts the cable to detect the pressure generated by the cable. At this time, the pressure on the cable is also tension, thereby completing the adjustment of the cable collection tension. This method is simple to operate and facilitates the winding of the cable. By setting the limiting mechanism 6, when the cable is being transported, the limiting rollers 23 inside the two sets of limiting mechanisms 6 can be placed on the cable to limit the cable transport. This method is simple to operate and facilitates the subsequent adjustment block 19 to limit the cable tension, improving its stability.

[0027] Compared with related technologies, the tension control device for cable production provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0028] By setting the adjustment mechanism 8, the tension during cable production and winding can be easily adjusted. During operation, the operator first connects one end of the cable to the winding mechanism 3, bypassing the limiting mechanism 6. Then, the winding mechanism 3 is started, and the cable is wound up. During winding, the stepper motor 13 can be started, driving the bidirectional lead screw 11 to rotate. This causes the threaded sleeve 12 to move on the surface of the bidirectional lead screw 11. During the movement of the threaded sleeve 12, the adjusting rod 16 drives the mounting plate 14 downwards, thereby causing the mounting plate 14 to move the adjusting block 19 at its bottom. The cable is compressed, and then the cable comes into contact with the pressure sensor 21 inside the arc groove 20, thereby detecting the pressure generated by the cable. At this time, the pressure on the cable is also tension, thus completing the adjustment of the cable collection tension. This method is simple to operate and facilitates the winding of the cable. By setting the limiting mechanism 6, when the cable is being transported, the cable can be pulled onto the limiting rollers 23 inside the two sets of limiting mechanisms 6, so that the two limiting rollers 23 limit the transport of the cable. This method is simple to operate and facilitates the subsequent limiting of the cable tension adjustment by the adjusting block 19, improving its stability.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] Based on Example 1, see [link / reference] Figure 1-5The mounting frame 4 has a limiting mechanism 6 on its surface. The limiting mechanism 6 has a limiting rod 22 inside it. The limiting rod 22 has a limiting roller 23 movably mounted on its surface. There are two sets of limiting mechanisms 6, and the two sets of limiting mechanisms 6 are symmetrically installed about the center line of the mounting frame 4. By setting the limiting mechanism 6, when the cable is being transported, the cable can be pulled onto the limiting rollers 23 inside the two sets of limiting mechanisms 6, so that the two limiting rollers 23 limit the transport of the cable. This method is simple to operate and facilitates the subsequent adjustment block 19 to limit the cable tension, thereby improving its stability.

[0031] Based on Example 1, see [link / reference] Figure 1-5 The mounting bracket 4 has a slide rail 7 at its top, and the threaded sleeve 12 has a slider 10 at its top. The slider 10 is slidably connected to the slide rail 7. By using the slider 10 and the slide rail 7 together, the movement of the threaded sleeve 12 can be limited, preventing the threaded sleeve 12 from rotating with the rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 11.

[0032] Based on Example 1, see [link / reference] Figure 1-5 The device body 1 has a vertical plate 2 inside, and a winding mechanism 3 is installed on the surface of the vertical plate 2. The winding mechanism 3 facilitates the collection of the produced cables.

[0033] Based on Example 1, see [link / reference] Figure 1-5 The adjusting block 19 is located on the center line of the two sets of limiting mechanisms 6. By setting the adjusting block 19 on the center line of the two sets of limiting mechanisms 6, it is convenient to adjust the cable tension evenly in the future.

[0034] Based on Example 1, see [link / reference] Figure 1-5 The top surface of the mounting bracket 4 is equipped with a controller 5. By setting the controller 5, it is convenient to control the electrical components inside the device body 1. The control circuit of the control panel can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art. It is common knowledge in the art. It is only used and not modified. Therefore, the control method and circuit connection will not be described in detail.
