The pipe stranding machine is one of them. The pay-off device of the pipe stranding machine is provided with an I-shaped wheel in the cradle, and a clamping device with a center pin is arranged on both sides of the cradle. The center pin is driven by a cylinder to move linearly, and the center pin can rotate relative to the cylinder. One of the clamping devices on both sides is fixed, and the other is linearly operated, so that the center pin in the clamping device on both sides is inserted into the center hole of the I-shaped wheel, and the I-shaped wheel can be clamped together.

[0030] Tension control mechanism one 4 and tension control mechanism two 5 are respectively arranged on both sides of cradle 1, and tension control mechanism one 4 and tension control mechanism two 5 constitute the galvanized steel strand twisting double tension system.Tension control mechanism one 4 and tension control mechanism two 5 are all applied to center 3, so as to control the rotating speed of spool 25, and the wire laying tension of spool 25 is also controlled.

[0031] In the embodiment, tension control mechanism one 4 includes hysteresis brake 6, and hysteresis brake 6 and center 3 on one side of clamping device 2 are chain transmission, and the rotation of center 3 can be controlled by hysteresis brake 6, so as to control the rotation of spool 25.The clamping device 2 where the center 3 is located does not move, and then the center 3 does not produce axial movement, so as to ensure the reliability of chain transmission.

[0032] The hysteresis brake 6 is installed on the cradle 1, and specifically, a horizontal plate 7 is arranged on the cradle 1, and the hysteresis brake 6 is installed on the horizontal plate 7 to achieve installation and fixation of the hysteresis brake 6. A small chain wheel 8 is arranged on a rotating shaft of the hysteresis brake 6, a large chain wheel 9 is arranged on the one side of the top pin 3, and a chain 10 is arranged between the small chain wheel 8 and the large chain wheel 9, so as to connect the top pin 3 and the hysteresis brake 6, and the rotating torque of the spool 25 is controlled through the hysteresis brake 6.

[0033] In the embodiment, the second tension control mechanism 5 comprises a tension wheel 11, a tension belt 12, a roller unit 13, a horizontally arranged translation rod 14, and a stepping motor 15 for driving the translation rod 14 to reciprocatingly move linearly. The tension wheel 11 is coaxially arranged on the top pin 3 of the other side of the clamping device 2, and the top pin 3 and the tension wheel 11 rotate together. The top pin 3 on which the tension wheel 11 is arranged is controlled by the clamping device 2, and the top pin 3 is linearly movable. The tension belt 12 is arranged on the circumference of the tension wheel 11, and the tension belt 12 is arranged in a "C" shape on the circumference of the tension wheel 11.

[0034] Compared with the conventional sliding friction mode, a plurality of roller units 13 are uniformly arranged on the tension belt 12, the tension belt 12 is in rolling frictional contact with the tension wheel 11 through the roller units 13, and the rotation of the roller units 13 can reduce the friction coefficient of the tension belt 12 and the tension wheel 11.

[0035] The roller unit 13 comprises a mounting side plate 131, a fixed shaft 132, a bearing 133, and a gear ring 134. The tension belt 12 is a steel belt, two mounting side plates 131 are symmetrically arranged on the tension belt 12, a triangular rib plate 16 is arranged between each mounting side plate 131 and the tension belt 12, the number of the rib plates 16 is two, and the two rib plates 16 are arranged in an inverted "8" shape. The fixed shaft 132 is arranged between the two mounting side plates 131 in a penetrating manner, and the fixed shaft 132 is in interference fit with the mounting side plates 131. The bearing 133 is arranged on the fixed shaft 132 in a penetrating manner, and the bearing 133 is located between the two mounting side plates 131.

The gear ring 134 can rotate by itself under the driving of the bearing 133.

[0036] In order to facilitate the installation of the roller unit 13, a ring groove 17 is formed on the circumference of the tension wheel 11, the ring groove 17 is arranged around the tension wheel 11, and the cross section of the ring groove 17 is in an inverted trapezoidal shape. The roller unit 13 on the tension belt 12 rolls in the ring groove 17, and the ring groove 17 provides a certain space for the placement of the roller unit 13. The gear ring 134 in the roller unit 13 is in meshing rotation with the ring groove 17, that is, a plurality of gear grooves 18 are uniformly formed on the bottom surface of the ring groove 17, and the gear ring 134 is in meshing rotation with the gear grooves 18.

[0037] The tension belt 12 needs to form certain constraint force to the tension wheel 11 to control the rotation of the spool 25, so the tension belt 12 needs to be tightened. Specifically, the other end of the tension belt 12 and the cradle 1 are provided with a downward spring 19, and a spring plate 20 is arranged on the cradle 1 during installation. One end of the downward spring 19 is hooked on the tension belt 12, and the other end of the downward spring 19 is hooked on the spring plate 20. The spring plate 20 and the end of the tension belt 12 are both provided with a round hole to facilitate the hooking of the downward spring 19.

[0038] On the basis of the position of the tension belt 12 being limited, a translation rod 14 is arranged horizontally sliding on the cradle 1, and the translation rod 14 is in the shape of a hexagonal prism. During installation, a guide plate 21 with a hexagonal hole is arranged on the cradle 1, and the translation rod 14 is slidingly arranged on the guide plate 21. The translation rod 14 is arranged on the guide plate 21, so that the translation rod 14 can only move horizontally and cannot rotate.

[0039] An upward spring 22 is arranged between the translation rod 14 and one end of the tension belt 12. The end of the translation rod 14 and the end of the tension belt 12 are both provided with a round hole, so that one end of the upward spring 22 is hooked on the tension belt 12 and the other end is hooked on the translation rod 14. On the basis of the position of the spring plate 20 being fixed, the horizontal position of the translation rod 14 can be adjusted, thereby changing the tension of the tension belt 12.

[0040] The adjustment of the position of the translation rod 14 is realized by an electric method, that is, a stepping motor 15 is used to control the horizontal movement of the translation rod 14. A motor mounting plate 23 is arranged on the cradle 1 to realize the installation and fixation of the stepping motor 15. Here, the stepping motor 15 is a hollow shaft stepping motor 15, the rotating shaft of which is hollow. A threaded rod 24 is arranged at one end of the translation rod 14, and the threaded rod 24 extends into the hollow rotating shaft of the stepping motor 15 and is threadedly connected with the rotating shaft.

[0041] Since the threaded rod 24 is threadedly connected with the rotating shaft of the stepping motor 15 and the translation rod 14 is slidingly connected with the guide plate 21, after the stepping motor 15 operates, the threaded rod 24 and the rotating shaft of the stepping motor 15 will produce axial relative movement, which can drive the translation rod 14 to move horizontally. By driving the stepping motor 15 in forward and reverse directions, the moving direction of the translation rod 14 is changed, thereby adjusting the tension of the tension belt 12. The tension belt 12 gives a certain pressure to the tension wheel 11, changes the rolling frictional resistance between the tension belt 12 and the tension wheel 11, and achieves the purpose of controlling the pay-off tension.

[0042] The stepping motor 15 can also be a through-shaft type screw stepping motor 15, which has a screw rod that penetrates the stepping motor 15, and the operation of the stepping motor 15 can control the axial linear motion of the screw rod. One end of the translation rod 14 is fixedly connected with the screw rod of the stepping motor 15, that is, the translation rod 14 can be directly connected with the screw rod of the stepping motor 15, so that the threaded rod 24 is no longer needed. By connecting the through-shaft type screw stepping motor 15 with the translation rod 14, the axial movement of the translation rod 14 can be controlled.

[0043] The principle of the utility model is that: the center 3 on one side does not produce axial movement, and the center 3 on the other side produces axial movement, so that the spool 25 can be clamped and fixed on the cradle 1 or disassembled from the cradle 1. During the process of paying off the steel strand on the spool 25, the magnetic hysteresis brake 6 generates a certain torque by being energized, and controls the rotation of the spool 25 under the action of chain transmission, so as to accurately change the size of the pay-off tension. At the same time, the tension of the tension belt 12 to the tension wheel 11 can be adjusted by the operation of the stepping motor 15, the rolling frictional resistance of the tension belt 12 to the tension wheel 11 is controlled, and the pay-off tension of the spool 25 can also be adjusted.

[0044] The utility model can effectively control the pay-off tension of the spool 25 through the magnetic hysteresis brake 6 and the stepping motor 15, so as to ensure the consistency of the steel strand tension and improve the quality of the steel strand. The power transmission supply of the stepping motor 15 and the magnetic hysteresis brake 6 is realized through the conductive slip ring, which is installed at the rotation center position of the end part of the cradle 1.

[0045] The above-mentioned embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the utility model, and do not limit the implementation range of the utility model, so that equivalent changes or modifications made according to the structure, features and principles described in the patent range of the utility model should be included in the patent range of the utility model.
