Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable storage rack technology, specifically a cable storage rack for cables. Background Technology
[0002] On cable production lines, cable storage racks can precisely adjust the tension of cables, preventing quality problems such as cable breakage due to excessive tension or loosening and incomplete winding due to insufficient tension during production. Therefore, a cable storage rack is required.
[0003] A Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN116374726A discloses a vertical tension rack for automotive cable production, including a frame with a lifting assembly inside. Anti-suspension bracket one and anti-suspension bracket two, mounted on the lifting assembly, are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the frame, respectively. This invention provides lubrication for automotive cables after passing through the cable guide rollers, allowing for better cable tensioning and effective protection against damage. It also facilitates better cable winding. When the frame needs to be moved, simply connect the power to the electric push rod and control its downward movement. This pushes the fixed plate downwards, causing the fixed rod to push the support frame, allowing the moving rollers to pass through the bottom of the base.
[0004] However, the above-mentioned cable storage rack still has some problems. In practical applications, when the cable moves on the cable storage rack, due to factors such as changes in its own tension, it is easy to jump off its original running track, which will cause the cable after the jumper to become tangled and messy on the cable storage rack, causing unavoidable damage to the cable. Therefore, a cable storage rack for cables is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and solve the problems mentioned in the background technology, this utility model proposes a cable storage rack.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: A cable storage rack for cables, comprising a base plate, two support frames, a support plate and an L-shaped frame installed on the top of the base plate, and an anti-slip cable assembly installed on one side of each support frame, support plate and L-shaped frame. The anti-slip cable assembly includes an electric push rod, an actuating rod fixedly connected to the actuating end of the electric push rod, a sleeve installed at one end of the actuating rod, a compression spring fixedly connected to one end of the sleeve, a circular block fixedly connected to one end of the compression spring, the radius of the circular block being less than or equal to the inner diameter of the sleeve, a movable rod installed on one side of the circular block, and a rod hole opened on one side of the other end of the sleeve. One end of the movable rod is movably inserted through the rod hole, and an anti-slip cable plate is fixedly connected to one end of the movable rod. The anti-slip cable plate is fitted with a soft pad inside and is arc-shaped, thereby limiting the cable and effectively preventing the cable from jumping during storage or transmission, avoiding damage to the cable surface caused by jumpers.
[0007] Preferably, a column is installed at the top edge of the base plate, and fixing plates are symmetrically installed on both sides of the bottom end of the column. The inside of the fixing plate is fitted with a wire inlet wheel and a wire outlet wheel through a pin engagement. The support frame is installed on the outside of the fixing plate, so that the cable can smoothly enter and exit the cable storage rack.
[0008] Preferably, a guide wheel is installed on one side of the bottom end of the column via a pin, and the support plate is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom end of the column to further guide the cable.
[0009] Preferably, a servo motor is installed on the top side of the column, and a threaded rod is installed on the output end of the servo motor. A sliding groove is opened inside the column, and a sliding block is slidably installed inside the sliding groove. A threaded hole is opened inside the sliding block, and one end of the threaded rod passes through the threaded hole and is rotatably installed inside the sliding groove. An L-shaped frame is fixedly installed on the top side of the sliding block. A groove is opened inside one side of the sliding block, and a support column is fixedly connected between the two sides of the groove. A movable block is slidably installed on the outside of the support column. A spring is fixedly connected to the top and bottom sides of the movable block and the top and bottom sides of the groove. The spring is sleeved on the outside of the support column. A tension roller is installed on one side of the movable block through a pin, realizing precise adjustment of cable tension and ensuring the stability and safety of the cable during storage or transmission.
[0010] Preferably, the anti-slip plate is located directly below the infeed wheel and the guide wheel, and directly above the outlet wheel and the tension roller. One end of the cable passes through the bottom side of the infeed wheel to the top side of the tension roller, is led out by the tension roller, passes through the bottom side of the guide wheel, and extends to the top side of the outlet wheel, thus clarifying the cable's path and improving the stability of cable storage or transmission.
[0011] Preferably, a control panel is installed on the top side of the base plate. The control panel is used to operate and control the electrical components inside the device, thereby realizing centralized control of the electrical components in the device.
[0012] The advantages of this utility model are:
[0013] 1. The electric push rod of this utility model extends and pushes the action rod, which drives the sleeve to move, so that the sleeve and the anti-slip plate are close to the cable. The soft pad on the anti-slip plate contacts the cable. Since the anti-slip plate is arc-shaped and has a soft pad, it can effectively restrict the position of the cable and prevent it from jumping. As the electric push rod continues to extend, the pressure of the anti-slip plate on the cable gradually increases. When the compression spring is about to reach the limit compression state, the electric push rod stops extending, thereby effectively preventing the anti-slip plate from pressing the cable excessively.
[0014] 2. When the servo motor of this utility model is started, it drives the threaded rod to rotate, causing the sliding block to move up and down in the sliding groove. This, in turn, drives the L-shaped frame fixed on the top side of the sliding block and other components such as the tension roller to move together. During cable transmission, when the cable tension is relatively high, the cable will drive the tension roller to move up and down. The movable block will then slide up and down on the outside of the support column. When the spring is stretched or compressed, it plays a buffering role, adjusting the cable tension and preventing the cable tension from being too high. This achieves precise adjustment of the cable tension, ensuring the stability and safety of the cable during storage or transmission. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-3As shown, a cable storage rack includes a base plate 1. Two support frames 2, a support plate 3, and an L-shaped frame 4 are mounted on top of the base plate 1. Anti-slip cable components are installed on one side of each of the support frames 2, support plate 3, and L-shaped frame 4. Each anti-slip cable component includes an electric push rod 5. An actuating rod is fixedly connected to the actuating end of the electric push rod 5. A sleeve 6 is installed at one end of the actuating rod. A compression spring 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the sleeve 6. A circular block 8 is fixedly connected to one end of the compression spring 7. The radius of the circular block 8 is less than or equal to the inner diameter of the sleeve 6. A movable rod 9 is installed on one side of the circular block 8. A rod hole is opened on one side of the other end of the sleeve 6. One end of the movable rod 9 is movably inserted through the rod hole. An anti-slip cable plate 10 is fixedly connected to one end of the movable rod 9. A soft pad is fitted inside the anti-slip cable plate 10. The anti-slip cable plate 10 is arc-shaped. A control panel 25 is installed on the top side of the base plate 1. During operation, in practical applications, when the cable moves on the storage rack, its own tension changes... Due to factors such as these, the cable can easily deviate from its original operating track, causing it to become tangled and messy on the cable storage rack, resulting in unavoidable damage. After the cable transmission path is assembled, the electric push rod 5 is controlled to extend, pushing the action rod. The action rod moves the sleeve 6, bringing the sleeve 6 and the anti-jump plate 10 closer to the cable. The soft pad on the anti-jump plate 10 contacts the cable. Because the anti-jump plate 10 is arc-shaped and has soft pads, it can effectively limit the position of the cable and prevent it from jumping. As the electric push rod 5 continues to extend, the pressure of the anti-jump plate 10 on the cable gradually increases. At this time, the compression spring 7 plays a key role. As the pressure on the compression spring 7 gradually increases, it begins to be compressed. Its elastic force will act in the opposite direction. When the compression spring 7 is about to reach its limit compression state, the electric push rod 5 stops extending, thus effectively preventing the anti-jump plate 10 from pressing the cable excessively. It should be noted that the sleeve 6 is transparent, allowing for better observation of the compression degree of the compression spring 7.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, a column 15 is installed at the top edge of the base plate 1, and a fixing plate 11 is symmetrically installed on both sides of the bottom end of the column 15. The inside of the fixing plate 11 is fitted with a wire inlet wheel 12 and a wire outlet wheel 13 respectively through a pin shaft. The support frame 2 is installed on the outside of the fixing plate 11.
[0025] A guide wheel 14 is installed on one side of the bottom end of the column 15 through a pin, and the support plate 3 is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom end of the column 15.
[0026] A servo motor 16 is installed on the top side of the column 15. A threaded rod 17 is installed at the output end of the servo motor 16. A sliding groove 18 is opened inside the column 15. A sliding block 19 is slidably installed inside the sliding groove 18. A threaded hole is opened inside the sliding block 19. One end of the threaded rod 17 passes through the threaded hole and is rotatably installed inside the sliding groove 18. The L-shaped frame 4 is fixedly installed on the top side of the sliding block 19. A groove 20 is opened inside one side of the sliding block 19. A support column 21 is fixedly connected between the two sides of the groove 20. A movable block 22 is slidably installed on the outside of the support column 21. A spring 23 is fixedly connected to the top and bottom sides of the movable block 22 and the top and bottom sides of the groove 20. The spring 23 is sleeved on the outside of the support column 21. A tension roller 24 is installed on one side of the movable block 22 through a pin.
[0027] The anti-slip plate 10 is located directly below the infeed wheel 12 and the guide wheel 14, and directly above the outlet wheel 13 and the tension roller 24. One end of the cable passes through the bottom side of the infeed wheel 12 to the top side of the tension roller 24, is led out from the tension roller 24, passes through the bottom side of the guide wheel 14, and extends to the top side of the outlet wheel 13. During operation, on the cable production line, the cable storage rack can precisely adjust the cable tension, preventing the cable from breaking due to excessive tension or becoming loose or not tightly wound due to insufficient tension during production. Therefore, a cable storage rack is needed. When cables need to be stored, one end of the cable first enters the cable storage rack through the bottom side of the infeed wheel 12. Then, one end of the cable passes through the top side of the tension roller 24. The cable continues to move, passing through the bottom side of the guide wheel 14. The guide wheel 14 further guides the cable, changing its direction so that the cable moves within the cable storage rack along a predetermined path. Finally, the cable is output through the top side of the outlet wheel 13, which guides the cable out of the cable storage rack, completing the cable storage or transmission process.
[0028] After the cable is assembled along the path, the servo motor 16 starts, driving the threaded rod 17 to rotate. This causes the sliding block 19 to move up and down within the groove 18, which in turn moves the L-shaped frame 4 fixed to the top side of the sliding block 19 and the tension roller 24, adjusting the position of the tension roller 24 to better meet the cable tension adjustment requirements. During cable transmission, when the cable tension is high, the cable will drive the tension roller 24 to move up and down, causing the movable block 22 to slide up and down on the outside of the support column 21. The spring 23 is stretched or compressed, acting as a buffer to adjust the cable tension and prevent it from becoming too high. This achieves precise adjustment of the cable tension, ensuring the stability and safety of the cable during storage or transmission.
[0029] Working principle: When it is necessary to store cables, one end of the cable first enters the cable storage rack through the bottom side of the infeed wheel 12. Then, one end of the cable passes through the top side of the tension roller 24. The cable continues to move, passing the bottom side of the guide wheel 14. The guide wheel 14 further guides the cable, changing its direction so that the cable moves in the cable storage rack according to a predetermined path. Finally, the cable is output through the top side of the output wheel 13. The output wheel 13 guides the cable out of the cable storage rack, completing the cable storage or transmission process.
[0030] After the cable is assembled along the path, the servo motor 16 starts, driving the threaded rod 17 to rotate. This causes the sliding block 19 to move up and down within the groove 18, which in turn moves the L-shaped frame 4 fixed to the top side of the sliding block 19 and the tension roller 24, adjusting the position of the tension roller 24 to better meet the cable tension adjustment requirements. During cable transmission, when the cable tension is high, the cable will drive the tension roller 24 to move up and down, causing the movable block 22 to slide up and down on the outside of the support column 21. The spring 23 is stretched or compressed, acting as a buffer to adjust the cable tension and prevent it from becoming too high. This achieves precise adjustment of the cable tension, ensuring the stability and safety of the cable during storage or transmission.
[0031] After the cable transmission path is assembled, the electric push rod 5 is controlled to extend, pushing the action rod. The action rod drives the sleeve 6 to move, so that the sleeve 6 and the anti-slip plate 10 are close to the cable. The soft pad on the anti-slip plate 10 contacts the cable. Since the anti-slip plate 10 is arc-shaped and has soft pads, it can effectively restrict the position of the cable and prevent it from jumping. As the electric push rod 5 continues to extend, the pressure of the anti-slip plate 10 on the cable gradually increases. At this time, the compression spring 7 plays a key role. When the pressure on the compression spring 7 gradually increases, it begins to be compressed. Its elastic force will act in the opposite direction. When the compression spring 7 is about to reach the limit of compression, the electric push rod 5 stops extending, thus effectively preventing the anti-slip plate 10 from pressing the cable excessively.
