[0027] The upper wire feeding wheel 24 is located above the lower wire feeding wheel 25, and the two work together to clamp the metal wire 6. When the upper wire feeding wheel 24 and the lower wire feeding wheel 25 rotate, they can move the metal wire 6 to the chain braiding machine 1 for chain link weaving. Both the upper wire feeding wheel 24 and the lower wire feeding wheel 25 can be rubber-coated wheels, thereby increasing the friction between the wire feeding wheel and the metal wire 6.

[0028] The upper wire feeding wheel 24 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the upper gear 26, and the lower wire feeding wheel 25 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the lower gear 27.

The lower gear 27 is driven by a servo motor 23, and the motor shaft of the servo motor 23 can be coaxially and fixedly connected to the lower gear 27. When energized, the lower gear 27 can be controlled to rotate, which drives the lower wire feeding wheel 25 to rotate and in turn drives the upper gear 26. The upper gear 26 drives the upper wire feeding wheel 24 to rotate, thereby driving the upper wire feeding wheel 24 and the lower wire feeding wheel 25 through the servo motor 23, thus realizing wire feeding.

[0029] The chain braiding machine 1 is provided with a gear seat 21, which can be a vertical plate perpendicular to the working table plane of the chain braiding machine 1; the shafts between the upper wire feeding wheel 24 and the upper gear 26 and between the lower wire feeding wheel 25 and the lower gear 27 are rotationally connected with the gear seat 21.

[0032] The outer side of the chain braiding machine 1 is provided with a control screen, which is in communication connection with the controller 3; the control screen is installed on the front side of the straightening mechanism 5, so as to shield the straightening mechanism 5 by using the control screen and improve the aesthetic appearance.

[0033] The controller 3 can adopt an industrial computer or a PLC, and the controller 3 is connected with the servo motor 23 to control the start-stop and rotating speed of the servo motor 23; when the servo motor 23 stops feeding the wire and the chain braiding machine 1 keeps running, the chain braiding machine 1 will be idling, so that the chain being braided on the chain braiding machine 1 naturally falls off, so that the chain being braided subsequently is not connected with the chain being braided previously, thereby realizing the function of automatic chain breaking in the process of braiding the chain by the chain braiding machine 1.
