[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "lower", "thickness", "top", "middle", "length", "inner", "around" and other terms indicating orientation or positional relationship are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 A cable metering device includes a column 1, which provides a stable platform for supporting components mounted on it. A support plate 5 is fixed to the top of the column 1. A turntable 2 is rotatably mounted on the upper side of the support plate 5. Two housings 3 are symmetrically fixed to the upper side of the turntable 2. The support plate 5 stably supports the two housings 3, and the two housings 3 can be rotated and adjusted via the turntable 2, allowing them to interchange positions. Each housing 3 is equipped with a measuring wheel metering structure. The support plate 5 has a positioning mechanism that matches the turntable 2. After the turntable 2 rotates, it can be positioned by the positioning mechanism, thus fixing the two housings 3 as a whole. The positioning mechanism includes a positioning seat 4 fixed to the bottom of the support plate 5. A screw 6 is horizontally rotatably connected to the positioning seat 4. A sliding block 7 is horizontally slidable along the edge of the support plate 5, meaning a slide rail is fixed to the side of the support plate 5. The sliding block 7 slides and matches the slide rail, and is constrained by the slide rail. The screw 6 is threaded through the sliding block 7. Two grooves are symmetrically provided on the turntable 2, allowing the sliding block 7 to insert and match into the grooves. By rotating the screw 6, the sliding block 7 can be driven to move. When the sliding block 7 is inserted into the groove, the turntable 2 can be positioned, thereby restricting the rotation of the turntable 2, which achieves the positioning of the two housings 3.

[0028] For the above example, those skilled in the art should know that when implementing the above technical solution, the bottom of the column 1 can be stably fixed to the ground by anchor bolts, that is, the bottom of the column 1 is provided with a base plate, and the base plate is provided with slots for setting anchor bolts.

[0029] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the measuring wheel metering structure includes an upper friction wheel 8 and a lower friction wheel 9, which are arranged vertically. The cable body can pass between the upper friction wheel 8 and the lower friction wheel 9. That is, the cable body to be measured is wound up using existing pulling equipment, wherein the cable body is positioned between the upper friction wheel 8 and the lower friction wheel 9. When the cable body is pulled, it can drive the upper friction wheel 8 and the lower friction wheel 9 to rotate.

[0030] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a slider is slidably provided inside the housing 3. The upper friction wheel 8 is rotatably connected to the side of the slider. The top of the housing 3 is provided with a height-adjusting threaded rod for adjusting the slider. The lower friction wheel 9 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the housing 3. The bottom of the housing 3 is provided with a sensor device that matches and is connected to the rotating shaft of the lower friction wheel 9. That is, the rotating shaft of the lower friction wheel 9 drives the second bevel gear to rotate through the first bevel gear, and the second bevel gear drives the rotating wheel inside the sensor device to rotate. The sensor device is used for cable metering. That is, the sensor device measures the length of the cable body by measuring the rotation of the lower friction wheel 9, thereby achieving the effect of cable metering. By adjusting the slider against the upper friction wheel 8, sufficient pressure can be ensured between the upper friction wheel 8 and the lower friction wheel 9, maintaining effective frictional contact between the cable body and the upper and lower friction wheels 8 and 9, reducing the risk of slippage.

[0031] For the above example, those skilled in the art should know that when implementing the above technical solution, the sensor device is a Hall sensor. Hall sensors are usually used in combination with magnets. When the rotating shaft of the lower friction wheel 9 drives the rotating wheel inside the sensor device to rotate, the magnet fixed on the rotating wheel periodically approaches / moves away from the Hall sensor, generating pulse signals. By counting the number of pulses and combining it with the circumference of the guide wheel, the cable length can be calculated.

[0032] For the above example, those skilled in the art should know that when implementing the above technical solution, the upper friction wheel 8 and the lower friction wheel 9 are measuring wheels.

[0033] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the screw 6 is located at the bottom of the support plate 5, and a rocker handle is fixed at the end of the screw 6 away from the positioning seat 4, which facilitates the rotation of the screw 6.

[0034] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the thickness of the turntable 2 is the same as the thickness of the sliding block 7.

[0035] As a technical optimization of this utility model, partitions 10 are fixed on both the left and right sides of the housing 3, and a cover 11 is provided on the housing 3. The cover 11 can be snapped together with the two partitions 10. When the cover 11 is set, the cover 11, together with the two partitions 10 and the corresponding housing 3, can wrap the housing 3 and all its internal components inside, which can effectively protect and prevent dust.

[0036] The working principle is as follows:

[0037] In use, the two housings 3 can be rotated and adjusted via the turntable 2. The two housings 3 can be interchanged. After the interchange, the sliding block 7 can be moved by rotating the screw 6, so that the sliding block 7 inserts into the groove, thereby positioning the turntable 2 and restricting its rotation, thus achieving the positioning of the two housings 3. The measuring wheel metering structure on the housing 3 can perform normal cable metering operations. That is, the cable body to be measured is wound up by existing pulling equipment, with the cable body positioned between the upper friction wheel 8 and the lower friction wheel 9. When the cable body is pulled, it can drive the upper friction wheel 8 and the lower friction wheel 9 to rotate. The rotation of the lower friction wheel 9 causes the sensor device to perform the measurement operation.

[0038] In use, the measuring wheel metering structure on one side of the housing 3 can perform normal cable metering operations at its corresponding workstation. When malfunctions or significant wear occur during prolonged use, requiring maintenance or replacement, the two housings 3 can be rotated to swap positions, allowing the other housing 3 to continue cable metering via the other measuring wheel metering structure. Subsequent maintenance or replacement operations can then be performed. Rotating the two housings 3 effectively avoids excessive downtime, minimizing disruption to normal operations. Furthermore, both housings 3 and their corresponding measuring wheel metering structures can perform cable metering operations simultaneously, providing two workstations.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that:

[0041] The positioning mechanism also includes two support blocks 12, which are symmetrically fixed on the turntable 2. Each support block 12 is equipped with a rod 13. The support block 12 has a round hole that matches the rod 13, and the support plate 5 has a through hole that matches the rod 13. The lower end of the rod 13 can pass through the round hole and the through hole and is threadedly connected to a knob block 14. After the turntable 2 is rotated and adjusted, the round holes of the two support blocks 12 of the turntable 2 are aligned with the two through holes of the support plate 5. At this time, the two rods 13 can be inserted and positioned in sequence, that is, the lower end of the rod 13 passes through the round hole and the through hole and is threadedly tightened to the knob block 14, thereby realizing the positioning and fixation of the turntable 2 and the support plate 5.

[0042] The working principle is as follows:

[0043] The two housings 3 can be rotated. After the rotation, the round holes on the two support blocks 12 of the rotating turntable 2 are aligned with the two through holes of the support plate 5. Then, the two insert rods 13 can be inserted and positioned in sequence. That is, the lower end of the insert rod 13 passes through the round hole and the through hole and the knob block 14 is screwed on, thereby fixing the turntable 2 and the support plate 5, that is, positioning the two housings 3.

[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
