[0039] In combination Figures 1 to 4The utility model provides a kind of wire pulling sensor, including shell 1, roll core subassembly 2, pull wire 3 and rotary encoder 4;Roll core subassembly 2 is arranged in shell 1, and roll core subassembly 2 includes roll core shaft 21 and first track 22, and one end of pull wire 3 is fixed on roll core subassembly 2, and pull wire 3 is stacked and is arranged on first track 22, and the width of first track 22 is same or approximate with the diameter of pull wire 3, and first track 22 is equidistant spiral structure, and roll core shaft 21 is sleeved on the input shaft 41 of rotary encoder 4, and shell 1 is formed with outlet 1a, and pull wire 3 is led out along outlet 1a.Through such setting, first track 22 is arranged in roll core subassembly 2, and the width of first track 22 is set to be equal or close to the diameter of pull wire 3, so when pull wire 3 is housed on first track 22, it can be added together layer by layer, and in each layer, only one circle of pull wire 3 exists, so setting can effectively prevent pull wire 3 from appearing interlaced stacking adverse conditions after recycling, ensure that the arrangement state of pull wire 3 in first track 22 is determined, so that the reading of rotary encoder 4 and the length of pull wire 3 pulled have relatively determined relationship, and then greatly improve the precision of measurement;First track 22 is set as equidistant spiral structure, ensure that the track radius does not appear the case of local radius mutation, and pull wire 3 can be smoothly transitioned every circle, and the length of pull wire 3 is calculated according to the reading of rotary encoder 4 with continuity, to further improve the accuracy of measurement result.
[0040] It should be noted that the specific width of the first track 22 is not limited here, which can meet the winding of the pull wire 3 along the first track 22, and the pull wire 3 can be stacked layer by layer on the first track 22, and the width of the first track 22 can be equal to the diameter of the pull wire 3, or can be slightly larger than the diameter of the pull wire 3, which can ensure that the pull wire 3 can be smoothly wound and pulled out on the first track 22. Generally, the superposition of linear motion and circular motion will form a spiral curve, and when the speed ratio of linear motion to circular motion is a fixed value, the spiral expands the same distance every rotation period, and such a spiral curve is called an equidistant spiral.
