Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wire harness processing technology, and in particular to a wire winding device. Background Technology

[0002] After production, wire harnesses are often coiled to facilitate subsequent transportation and packaging.

[0003] In the prior art, such as Chinese invention application with publication number CN113501381A published on October 15, 2021, an automatic winding mechanism, an automatic winding method, and a cable processing technology are disclosed. The cable is transported by a wire conveying device, and the end of the wire bundle is moved to the clamp of the winding device by a gripping device. Then, the wire bundle is wound around the winding block one turn at a time by the rotation of the rotating disk on the winding device. Through the above settings, the automatic winding processing of the wire bundle is realized.

[0004] However, the aforementioned winding mechanism is only suitable for winding a small number of turns of wire harness. When the number of turns of the wire harness is large, the wire harness is prone to falling off the winding block, causing the winding operation to be interrupted and affecting the winding efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of at least one of the above technical problems, the present invention provides a winding device that adopts structural improvements to enhance the reliability of winding.

[0006] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a winding device is provided, comprising:

[0007] A winding mechanism, comprising a turntable that can rotate a set number of turns under external force, a wire clamping assembly disposed on the turntable, and at least two winding carriers disposed on the turntable, wherein the winding carriers extend in a direction perpendicular to the turntable, and the wire bundle is wound around the side wall of the winding carrier.

[0008] A wire feeding mechanism is disposed toward the winding mechanism and is used for wire harness transmission during the winding process;

[0009] A wire-shifting mechanism is disposed between the wire-laying mechanism and the wire-winding mechanism, for clamping the end of the wire bundle and placing it on the wire-clamping assembly;

[0010] The winding support member also has a flipping mechanism, which includes a pressure plate movably disposed on the top of the winding support member and a driving member connected to the pressure plate. When the winding support member is wound, the pressure plate is driven to be perpendicular to the winding support member and protrude from the side wall of the winding support member.

[0011] Furthermore, the vertical cross-section of the winding support member is L-shaped, including a winding wall and a bottom wall arranged perpendicular to the winding wall, and the cable is wound on the winding wall between the pressure plate and the bottom wall.

[0012] Furthermore, the winding support member is provided with a notch adapted to the pressure plate, and at least a portion of the pressure plate is disposed within the notch, so that the pressure plate does not protrude from the winding wall when no winding is performed.

[0013] Furthermore, the pressure plate is rotatably connected to the winding wall, and the pressure plate is driven to be parallel to the winding wall when not wound. The driving member is used to drive the pressure plate to be perpendicular to or parallel to the winding wall.

[0014] Furthermore, the rotating connection end of the pressure plate also has teeth;

[0015] The driving component is a motor with a gear at its output end, the gear meshing with the teeth; or,

[0016] The driving component is a cylinder with a rack, and the rack meshes with the teeth.

[0017] Furthermore, the pressure plate is movable relative to the winding wall in a direction perpendicular to it, and the driving member is used to drive the pressure plate to protrude out of the winding wall or retract into the winding wall.

[0018] Furthermore, the driving component is a cylinder, and the piston rod of the cylinder is connected to the pressure plate; or,

[0019] The driving component is a motor with gears, and the pressure plate has a rack that meshes with the gears.

[0020] Furthermore, there are two winding carriers arranged opposite each other, the turntable has parallel slide rails, and the two winding carriers are slidably connected to the slide rails. The winding mechanism also includes a distance adjustment component arranged on the turntable for driving the two winding carriers to move closer or further apart.

[0021] Furthermore, the distance adjustment assembly includes a motor, a lead screw connected to the motor, and a nut seat screwed onto the lead screw. The nut seat is connected to the winding support member, and the lead screw is parallel to the slide rail.

[0022] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting a pressure plate on the top of the winding support member and by setting a driving member, the pressure plate protrudes from the side wall of the winding support member during winding, thus forming an obstruction above the wire harness during winding, thereby preventing the wire harness from falling off during the winding process. Compared with the prior art, this improves the reliability of winding, avoids winding interruption, and improves winding efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0035] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 8 The winding device shown includes a winding mechanism 1, a wire feeding mechanism 2, and a wire transfer mechanism 3. Please refer to the following for details. Figure 1 and Figure 2 In embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2As shown, the winding mechanism 1 includes a turntable 11 that can rotate a set number of turns under external force, a wire clamping assembly 12 disposed on the turntable 11, and at least two winding support members 13 disposed on the turntable 11. The winding support members 13 extend in a direction perpendicular to the turntable 11, and the wire harness is wound around the side wall of the winding support member 13. It should be noted that the rotation of the turntable 11 and the clamping assembly 12 clamping the wire harness in the winding mechanism 1 are existing technologies. Those skilled in the art can refer to the patent document with publication number CN113501381A for understanding. The wire release mechanism 2 and the wire transfer mechanism 3 mentioned below can also be understood with reference to the above patent document. They will not be described in detail here. The wire release mechanism 2 is disposed towards the winding mechanism 1 and is used for wire harness transmission during the winding process. The wire transfer mechanism 3 is disposed between the wire release mechanism 2 and the winding mechanism 1 and is used to clamp the end of the wire harness and place it on the clamping assembly 12.

[0037] In the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figure 5 The winding support member 13 also has a flipping mechanism 4. The flipping mechanism 4 includes a pressure plate 41 movably disposed on the top of the winding support member 13 and a driving member 42 connected to the pressure plate 41. When the winding support member 13 is wound, the pressure plate 41 is driven to be perpendicular to the winding support member 13 and protrude from the side wall of the winding support member 13. Of course, it should be noted that the specific driving form of the pressure plate 41 can be various, such as rotation, flipping, or linear movement, which will be described in detail below in the embodiments of this utility model. By setting the pressure plate 41, the winding support member 13 forms a structure at the top that prevents the wire harness from detaching, thereby reducing the probability of the wire harness detaching when it is being wound and improving the reliability of the winding.

[0038] In the above embodiment, by providing a pressure plate 41 on the top of the winding support member 13 and by providing a driving member 42, the pressure plate 41 protrudes from the side wall of the winding support member 13 during winding, thereby forming a barrier above the wire harness during winding, which can prevent the wire harness from falling off during the winding process. Compared with the prior art, this improves the reliability of winding, avoids winding interruption, and improves winding efficiency.

[0039] Based on the above embodiments, in some embodiments of this utility model, the specific structure of the winding support member 13 is as follows: Figure 6As shown, the vertical cross-section of the winding support member 13 is L-shaped, including a winding wall 13a and a bottom wall 13b perpendicular to the winding wall 13a. The cable is wound on the winding wall 13a between the pressure plate 41 and the bottom wall 13b. In the prior art without the pressure plate 41, as the winding progresses and the cable bundle moves upwards one turn at a time, the constraint force on the cable bundle tends to shift downwards and accumulate at the top of the winding wall 13a, potentially causing it to detach from the winding wall 13a. In the embodiments of this utility model, such as... Figure 6 As shown, by setting the pressure plate 41, the pressure plate 41 is in a state parallel to the bottom wall 13b when winding. This structure forms a C-shaped winding structure, so that the wire bundle is bound in the C-shaped winding structure when winding, thereby preventing the wire bundle from detaching.

[0040] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, the winding support member 13 is provided with a notch 13c that matches the pressure plate 41. At least a portion of the pressure plate 41 is disposed within the notch 13c, so that the pressure plate 41 does not protrude from the winding wall 13a when the wire is not wound. With this structural design, the wound coil can be easily detached after the wire harness winding is completed.

[0041] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 In some embodiments of this utility model, the pressure plate 41 is rotatably connected to the winding wall 13a, and the pressure plate 41 is driven to be parallel to the winding wall 13a when not winding. The driving member 42 is used to drive the pressure plate 41 to be perpendicular to or parallel to the winding wall 13a. That is, when not winding, the pressure plate 41 is in a vertical state, and when winding begins, the pressure plate 41 is perpendicular to the winding wall 13a. The driving member 42 has various structural forms, and can be implemented by a structure directly driven by a motor or a rotary cylinder.

[0042] Please refer to some embodiments of this utility model. Figure 5 and Figure 7 The rotating connection end of the pressure plate 41 also has teeth 41a; the driving component 42 can be a motor with a gear at the output end, the gear meshing with the teeth 41a. Thus, the rotation of the motor drives the rotation of the pressure plate 41, achieving a vertical or horizontal state for the pressure plate 41. In some other embodiments of this utility model, the driving component 42 is a cylinder with a rack, the rack meshing with the teeth 41a. The linear movement of the cylinder causes the rack to drive the teeth 41a to move, thereby achieving a horizontal or vertical state for the pressure plate 41.

[0043] Please refer to some embodiments of this utility model. Figure 8The pressure plate 41 is movable relative to the winding wall 13a in a direction perpendicular to it. The driving member 42 is used to drive the pressure plate 41 to protrude out of the winding wall 13a or retract into the winding wall 13a. This allows the notch 13c on the winding wall 13a to be smaller. The driving member 42 can be a cylinder, with its piston rod connected to the pressure plate 41. The extension and retraction of the cylinder causes the pressure plate 41 to protrude out of the winding wall 13a or retract into it. Furthermore, in some embodiments of this invention, the driving member 42 can also be a motor with gears, and the pressure plate 41 has a rack that meshes with the gears. The rotation of the motor drives the rotation of the gears, and the meshing of the gears with the rack causes the rack to move horizontally. The rack is connected to the pressure plate 41, thereby causing the pressure plate 41 to move laterally.

[0044] In embodiments of this utility model, in order to achieve winding of coils with different winding distances, the relative distance of the winding support member 13 is set to an adjustable structural form. Please refer to the following for details. Figure 4 Two winding carriers 13 are arranged opposite each other. A slide rail 14 is arranged parallel to each other on the turntable 11, and the two winding carriers 13 are slidably connected to the slide rail 14. The winding mechanism 1 also includes a distance adjustment component 15 arranged on the turntable 11 for driving the two winding carriers 13 closer to or further apart. It should be noted that the distance adjustment component 15 can have various structural forms. In some embodiments of this utility model, the distance adjustment component 15 includes a motor, a lead screw connected to the motor, and a nut seat screwed onto the lead screw. The nut seat is connected to the winding carrier 13, and the lead screw is parallel to the slide rail 14. Two motors and lead screws can be provided separately, or one motor can be provided with a bidirectional lead screw structure. The rotation of the motor drives the nut seat to move on the lead screw, thereby driving the movement of the two winding carriers 13. After the movement is completed, the set distance is achieved, and then the wire harness winding operation is performed.

[0045] During the winding process, the wire feeding mechanism 2 first extends the end of the wire bundle to be wound for the wire transfer mechanism 3 to hold. The wire transfer mechanism 3 moves the end of the wire bundle to the wire clamping assembly 12 on the turntable 11 for clamping and fixing. Then, the pressure plate 41 is driven to a state perpendicular to the winding wall 13a of the winding support member 13. Then, the turntable 11 is driven to start rotating, and the wire bundle is wound layer by layer on the winding support member 13. After the winding is completed, the pressure plate 41 is driven in the opposite direction to the inside of the side wall of the winding support member 13, and the wound wire bundle is moved to the next process for processing.

[0046] Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
