[0030] The following is a specific embodiment of the application and further describes the technical solutions of the application in conjunction with the drawings, but the application is not limited to these embodiments.
[0031] It should be noted that all directionality indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present application are only used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement condition, etc. between components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the drawings), and if the specific posture changes, the directionality indications will also change accordingly.
[0032] As shown in Figures 1 to 2 The utility model discloses a conductor 20 center line wire breakage protection device for stranding machine, including: mounting bracket 1, its both sides place wire drawing disc 2 and equipment 3 respectively, traction mechanism 4, the activity setting is in mounting bracket 1, and traction mechanism 4 is used for drawing out conductor 20 in wire drawing disc 2 and guides to equipment 3 in, swing arm 5 and stroke limit switch 6, swing arm 5 one end swing joint is in mounting bracket 1, and the other end swing lap is in conductor 20, and stroke limit switch 6 is located swing arm 5 below, and is connected to equipment 3, when wire breakage, swing arm 5 can because conductor 20 loses the traction of traction mechanism 4, and rotates and contacts in stroke limit switch 6 to equipment 3 with the wire breakage signal transmission to control its stop working to mounting bracket 1.
[0033] In normal working condition, traction mechanism 4 draws out conductor 20 from wire drawing disc 2, and guides it to equipment 3 and processes, in this process, conductor 20 keeps certain tension, this also makes swing arm 5 can maintain in a relatively stable position, and does not contact stroke limit switch 6 (can refer to the state shown in Figure 1 If conductor 20 breaks at somewhere (that is wire breakage), at this moment, because center line conductor 20 loses the traction, so swing arm 5 is no longer supported by conductor 20, and then rotates (that is falls to stroke limit switch 6) relative to mounting bracket 1 under the action of inertia and weight, when swing arm 5 rotates to a certain angle, swing arm 5 will contact the stroke limit switch 6 below, and then triggers and generates an electric signal, along with the electric signal transmission to the control system of equipment 3, after receiving the wire breakage signal, can immediately execute the stop of all moving parts of stranding machine to prevent the damage of equipment 3 or material, therefore, the device can make a response in the moment of conductor 20 wire breakage, quickly informs the control system to take measures, greatly reduces the additional failure or loss caused by delay, the overall structure is relatively simple, through the automatic detection and response mechanism, eliminates the need for continuous monitoring of manual, reduces the security risk that can be caused by human negligence, guarantees the safe operation of production equipment 3.
[0034] Traction mechanism 4 is provided with traction wheel 40, and the side wall of mounting bracket 1 forms extension support 10, traction wheel 40 is rotatably installed on extension support 10, for guiding conductor 20 to the inlet of equipment 3.
[0035] As shown in Figure 1As shown, the traction wheel 40 in the embodiment is close to one side of the drawing disc 2, and is installed on the extension support 10 to ensure that it can rotate freely within a certain range, so that the conductor 20 drawn out of the drawing disc 2 is first guided by the traction wheel 40. The presence of the traction wheel 40 makes the path of the conductor 20 more stable and predictable, reducing problems such as winding or jamming caused by path deviation. In addition, the material and surface treatment (such as rubber coating) of the traction wheel 40 can reduce the wear on the surface of the conductor 20, protecting the quality of the product. It should be noted that in the embodiment, the top wall of the traction wheel 40 is at the same height as the entrance of the equipment 3 for the conductor 20 to enter, further ensuring the smooth movement of the conductor 20 in the predetermined direction.
[0036] Preferably, the scheme also includes an equipment power supply 30, such as Figure 1 As shown, the equipment power supply 30 is provided with a connection line 300 for connecting the travel limit switch 6 and the equipment power supply 30 in series. This also allows the travel limit switch 6 to be contacted by the swing arm 5 in the event of a broken wire, so that the equipment power supply 30 can be immediately turned off, avoiding additional risks caused by delayed processing or misoperation.
[0037] Further preferably, as shown Figure 1 The end of the travel limit switch 6 is movably connected with a contact plate 60, and the swing arm 5 is movably pressed against the contact plate 60. By introducing the contact plate 60 as an intermediate medium, the force of the swing arm 5 on the travel limit switch 6 can be more concentrated and effective, improving the sensitivity of triggering and ensuring that the broken wire event is captured in the shortest time. It should be noted that, as shown Figure 2 The travel limit switch 6 in the embodiment has 2-pole contacts, configured as 1 normally closed contact (NC) + 1 normally open contact (NO). In the untriggered state, the normally closed contact is in the closed state, while the normally open contact is in the open state. When the swing arm 5 presses the contact plate 60, the quick-action contact mechanism (not shown in the figure) inside the travel limit switch 6 will respond quickly, causing the normally closed contact to open and the normally open contact to close, thereby changing the on-off state of the circuit. Since the normally closed contact controls the contact with the above-mentioned connection line 300, when the normally closed contact is opened, the travel limit switch 6 can control the disconnection of the connection line 300 and the equipment power supply 30, thereby preventing the mechanical parts from continuing to move and playing a protective role. It should be noted that the structure and working principle of the travel limit switch 6 in the embodiment are the same as those commonly used in machinery, and will not be described in detail here.
[0038] The travel limit switch 6 is also provided with a shell 61, the shell 61 is provided with an anti-disengagement block 62, and the contact plate 60 is provided with an adjusting hole 600 along its length direction, the adjusting hole 600 is movably clamped to the anti-disengagement block 62 to adjust the relative position of the contact plate 60 on the travel limit switch 6.
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the operating head of the travel limit switch 6 is a spring-return roller rocker, and it has an adjustable-length contact plate 60. Through the cooperation of the adjustment hole 600 and the anti-detachment block 62, the distance of the contact plate 60 extending relative to the travel limit switch 6 can be adjusted to ensure that the swing arm 5 can accurately contact and squeeze the contact plate 60 to trigger the wire breakage signal when it rotates and falls. At the same time, the contact plate 60 after the position is adjusted can be limited and fixed to ensure that the contact plate 60 rotates relative to the travel limit switch 6 with the limit block 12 as the rotation center. It should be noted that the limit block 12 in this embodiment can be replaced by screws, bolts, or other connecting parts.
[0040] Preferably, such as Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the height difference between the top of the traction wheel 40 and the bottom wall of the horizontally positioned swing arm 5 is equal to the outer diameter of the conductor 20. This height difference design ensures that the conductor 20 is always on the correct path when passing through the traction wheel 40 (i.e., the conductor 20 is delivered to the inlet of the device 3 in a horizontal position), avoiding tension changes caused by excessive bending or friction, thereby improving the stability of the conductor 20 transmission.
[0041] More preferably, in this embodiment, a fastener 63 is also connected to the outer casing 61, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the mounting bracket 1 in this embodiment is provided with a connection hole (not shown in the figure). A fastener 63 passes through the housing 61 and connects to the connection hole, thereby firmly fixing the travel limit switch 6 to the mounting bracket 1. This prevents loosening or displacement caused by machine vibration or external impact, improving the overall stability of the system. Furthermore, the stable installation ensures that the travel limit switch 6 can be accurately triggered when the conductor 20 breaks, stopping the equipment 3 in a timely manner, maximizing the safety of the operator and the integrity of the equipment 3. It should be noted that the fastener 63 in this embodiment can be replaced by screws, bolts, or other fastening components. The entire installation process is simple and quick, reducing installation time and cost, and facilitating subsequent maintenance and disassembly / replacement.
[0042] The top of the mounting bracket 1 has a bending block 11, and the end of the bending block 11 has an extension shaft 110. The swing arm 5 is rotatably connected to the extension shaft 110.
[0043] More preferably, such as Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the extension shaft 110 ensures that the swing arm 5 moves above the contact plate 60, thus guaranteeing the stability of accurate triggering and reception of the wire breakage signal. On the other hand, it provides an accurate rotation center for the swing arm 5, ensuring the stability and consistency of the swing arm 5's movement and reducing the possibility of false triggering due to mechanical errors.
[0044] The mounting frame 1 is further provided with a limiting block 12, which is used to limit the falling position of the swing arm 5 away from one end of the extension shaft 110, so as to prevent the travel limiting switch 6 from being damaged.
[0045] Further preferably, as shown in the drawings, the limiting block 12 in the embodiment can be connected to the mounting frame 1 in a welded manner. Figure 1 When the swing arm 5 rotates relative to the extension shaft 110 due to wire breakage, the falling position of the swing arm 5 can be effectively limited by the limiting block 12, so as to avoid the contact plate 60 of the travel limiting switch 6 from bearing mechanical stress beyond the designed range, thereby prolonging the service life of the travel limiting switch 6 and reducing the maintenance frequency.
[0046] The traction mechanism 4 is further movably provided with a first limiting wheel 41 and a second limiting wheel 42, which can guide the conductor 20 to the traction wheel 40 when rotating towards each other.
[0047] Further preferably, as shown in the drawings, the first limiting wheel 41 and the second limiting wheel 42 in the embodiment are closer to the wire drawing disc 2 than the traction wheel 40, that is, the conductor 20 in the wire drawing disc 2 can reach between the first limiting wheel 41 and the second limiting wheel 42 in advance after being drawn out, and then be drawn to the traction wheel 40. Figure 1 The design of the first limiting wheel 41 and the second limiting wheel 42 ensures that the conductor 20 can be accurately introduced into the traction wheel 40, thereby reducing problems caused by path deviation, such as conductor 20 deviation, winding or jamming; at the same time, the stable support provided by the two limiting wheels rotating towards each other enables the conductor 20 to maintain the correct posture before entering the traction wheel 40, thereby avoiding unnecessary bending or twisting and improving the operation stability of the entire system.
[0048] The working principle of the conductor 20 center line wire breakage protection device for the wire twisting machine is as follows:
[0049] Before operation, the conductor 20 serving as the center line is drawn out of the wire drawing disc 2, passes through the two limiting wheels, the traction wheel 40 and the swing arm 5, and is fixed through the device 3 inlet, at which time the swing arm 5 can be rotated to be parallelly pressed on the conductor 20. During operation, the center line conductor 20 moves axially with the device 3, continuously contacts the lower edge of the swing arm 5, and the operating head of the travel limiting switch 6 remains in place (the normally closed contact is closed, and the normally open contact is opened), so that the device 3 normally operates; when the wire breaks, the swing arm 5 rotates and falls to the limiting block 12 due to the loss of traction force on the conductor 20 and the inertia and weight, in the process, the contact plate 60 of the travel limiting switch 6 is pressed down (the normally closed contact is opened, the normally open contact is closed, and the circuit is disconnected), so that the device 3 stops; after the device 3 stops, the worker cold-welds the broken center line, and then the device 3 can be started to continue operation.
