[0002] Cable stranding machines are key equipment in the cable manufacturing process, mainly used to strand multiple single wires into cables.
[0003] After the cable is twisted together, it needs to be wound up and then awaits the next step of processing.

[0027] See Figure 1The tension adjustment device of a cable stranding machine shown includes a frame 1, a slide device 2 installed inside the frame 1, the slide device 2 slides vertically along the frame 1, an mounting device 3 is mounted on the slide device 2, and a pulley 4 with adjustable rotation damping is mounted on the mounting device 3.
[0028] In the above technical solution, the cable 88, which is twisted by the stranding machine, passes through the lower part of the pulley 4 and is then wound on the winding equipment. The height of the slide device 2 is adjusted according to the tightness of the cable, so that the height of the pulley 4 is changed, thereby completing the tensioning of the cable.
[0029] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the slide device 2 includes a guide rod 21, a screw 22, a linear bearing 23, a platform 24, a nut 25, and a servo motor 26. The guide rod 21 and the screw 22 are installed parallel to each other on the inner side of the frame 1. The lower end of the screw 22 is fitted with a bearing 27 between itself and the frame 1. The servo motor 26 is installed on the top of the frame 1, and the output end of the servo motor 26 is connected to the upper flange of the screw 22. The nut 25 and the linear bearing 23 are both fixedly installed through the platform 24. The guide rod 21 is fitted with the linear bearing 23, and the screw 22 is fitted with the nut 25. The mounting device 3 is installed through the platform 24.
[0030] In the above technical solution, the servo motor 26 is controlled by a servo system. The output of the servo motor 26 is adjusted through the operating terminal, thereby realizing the height adjustment of the platform 24 to meet the tensioning requirements of the cable.
[0031] The movement of the platform 24 is guided by the cooperation of the guide rod 21 and the linear bearing 23.
[0032] See Figures 1 to 4As shown, the mounting device 3 includes a mounting plate 31. Two movable rods 32 are mounted on the rear of the mounting plate 31. The movable rods 32 pass upward through the platform 24 and are engaged with limit caps 33. An adjusting tube 34 is slidably mounted on the rod of the movable rod 32. A locking screw 35 is engaged between the adjusting tube 34 and the movable rod 32. A spring 36 is sleeved on the movable rod 32. The spring 36 acts between the adjusting tube 34 and the platform 24. A retainer 37 is provided at the lower end of the movable rod 32. 31 is inserted into the mounting plate 37, and bolts 38 connect the mounting plate 31 and the mounting plate 37; a servo push rod 39 is installed at the bottom of the mounting plate 31, and a frame plate 310 is fixed at the output end of the servo push rod 39; a first guide rod 311 is fixed at the rear end of the frame plate 310; a guide seat 312 is fixed at the bottom of the mounting plate 31; the first guide rod 311 passes through the guide seat 312; a shaft 313 is provided at the front end of the frame plate 310; and a bearing 314 is fitted between the pulley 4 and the shaft 313.
[0033] In the above technical solution, the downward movement of the platform 24 drives the mounting plate 31 downward, guides and tensions the cable through the pulley 4, and provides adaptive compression through the compression of the spring 36 to avoid excessive tension force that could cause the cable to break.
[0034] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a threaded rod 331 is machined at the front end of the shaft 313, and a guide groove 332 is machined on the outer wall of the threaded rod 331. A damping disc 333 is fitted on the threaded rod 331, and a guide strip 334 that matches the guide groove 332 is machined on the inner wall of the damping disc 333. A nut 335 is fitted through the threaded rod 331. After the nut 335 is screwed inward, it presses the damping disc 333. After the damping disc 333 contacts the front end face of the pulley 4, it forms frictional resistance.
[0035] In the above technical solution, the position of the damping disk 333 can slide along the axial direction of the shaft 313, but it will not rotate. By rotating the nut 335, the contact force between the damping disk 333 and the pulley 4 is adjusted, thereby adjusting the rotation damping of the pulley 4.
[0036] The advantage of the above technology is that when the cable passes through the pulley 4, it will drive the pulley 4 to rotate. When the contact force between the cable and the pulley 4 is insufficient, the pulley 4 will stop rotating due to damping. When the pulley 4 stops rotating, it can clearly indicate that the tension of the cable is insufficient, so that the position of the pulley 4 can be adjusted in time.
[0037] See Figure 4As shown, a groove is machined at the rear end of the damping disc 333, and a wool felt 3333 is embedded in the groove. The wool felt protrudes outward to the outside of the groove, and damping is formed after the wool felt contacts the pulley.
[0038] The wool felt 3333 is replaceable and can be replaced after wear, increasing the maintainability of this device.
[0039] See Figure 4 As shown, a damping washer 3334 is fitted on the threaded rod 331, and the damping washer 3334 is spaced between the nut and the damping disc.
[0040] Damping washer 3334 is used to reduce the clearance between the damping disc and the nut.
