Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cable processing technology, and specifically relates to a cooling device for wire and cable processing. Background Technology

[0002] In the production and processing of wires and cables, the cooling process plays a crucial role in ensuring product quality. This is especially true for cables that use elastomer materials such as rubber and silicone as insulation or sheathing, where the selection and control of cooling methods are particularly critical.

[0003] Traditional wire and cable cooling devices have many drawbacks. On the one hand, most existing devices only cool the cable once, resulting in low cooling efficiency and failing to meet the needs of high-efficiency production. Moreover, this single cooling method makes it difficult to precisely control the cooling rate, leading to uneven temperature distribution inside the cable and the formation of large temperature gradients within the material. This is especially true for elastomers such as rubber and silicone, which have poor thermal conductivity and harden rapidly upon sudden cooling, while internal heat cannot be dissipated in time, resulting in stress concentration. This greatly increases the risk of quality defects such as cable cracking and seriously affects the cable's service life and mechanical properties.

[0004] On the other hand, existing cooling devices are not capable of handling residual moisture on the cable surface after cooling. The cable surface often has a lot of moisture attached after cooling. If it is not removed in time, this moisture will cause many problems in subsequent processes. For example, moisture may penetrate into the cable and affect the cable's insulation performance. This is especially true for moisture-sensitive insulation materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and nylon, which will cause a significant decrease in their insulation performance. At the same time, the damp cable surface may also attract dust and other impurities, which not only affect the appearance quality of the cable, but may also reduce the cable's protective performance to a certain extent.

[0005] In conclusion, it is necessary to propose a new type of cooling device for wire and cable processing. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cooling device for wire and cable processing, which can achieve gradient cooling of the cable, effectively prevent cracking caused by internal stress, and can perform efficient drying treatment on the cable after cooling.

[0007] The specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0008] A cooling device for wire and cable processing includes a cooling chamber and a cable body. The cooling chamber is provided with a first cooling pool, a second cooling pool and a third cooling pool. The first cooling pool and the second cooling pool, as well as the second cooling pool and the third cooling pool, are separated by a partition.

[0009] Multiple limiting rods are provided in the first cooling pool, the second cooling pool and the third cooling pool. A cable passage groove is provided in the two partitions near the top. The cable body passes through the cable passage groove and is guided to the outside of the cooling chamber by the limiting rod. The cable body passes through the first cooling pool, the second cooling pool and the third cooling pool in sequence.

[0010] A fixing plate is fixed to the outside of the cooling chamber near the third cooling pool. At least one wiping structure is installed on the fixing plate for wiping the cable body.

[0011] Each of the wiping structures includes two drive shafts, and a drive suction belt is driven between the two drive shafts. A motor is mounted on the top of the fixed plate, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one of the drive shafts, while the other drive shaft is rotatably connected to the fixed plate.

[0012] The fixing plate is also equipped with a squeezing structure, which is used to squeeze out moisture.

[0013] The extrusion structure includes an extrusion plate fixed to the top of the fixed plate and located outside the transmission adsorption belt. The extrusion plate abuts against the transmission adsorption belt. A support plate is fixed to the top of the fixed plate and located inside the transmission adsorption belt. The support plate is in contact with the side of the transmission adsorption belt near the extrusion plate.

[0014] A mounting frame is fixed to the top of the fixing plate and at the end of the wiping structure away from the cooling chamber. A fan is installed inside the mounting frame, and a first heating wire is installed inside the mounting frame and at the bottom of the fan.

[0015] Multiple guide grooves are provided inside the fixed plate and near the lower part of the extrusion plate.

[0016] A second heating wire is installed inside the cooling chamber and at the bottom of the first and second cooling pools.

[0017] The technical effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:

[0018] This invention allows the cable body to sequentially enter the first, second, and third cooling pools, thereby achieving gradient cooling of the cable and effectively preventing cracking caused by internal stress. Furthermore, the cable body is wiped by the transmission adsorption belt and dried by the limiting rod and the first heating wire, enabling efficient drying of the cable after cooling and significantly reducing its moisture content.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.

[0027] like Figures 1-5As shown, a cooling device for wire and cable processing includes a cooling chamber 1 and a cable body 5. The cooling chamber 1 contains a first cooling pool 2, a second cooling pool 3, and a third cooling pool 4. The first cooling pool 2 and the second cooling pool 3, as well as the second cooling pool 3 and the third cooling pool 4, are separated by a partition 8. An insulation plate can be installed inside the partition 8 to insulate the temperature. Furthermore, a second heating wire 19 is installed inside the cooling chamber 1 at the bottom of the first cooling pool 2 and the second cooling pool 3. The heating temperature of the second heating wire 19 at the location of the first cooling pool 2 is higher than that of the second cooling pool 3. The heating temperature inside the 3rd chamber is slightly higher, so that the cable body 5 first enters the first cooling pool 2 for initial cooling, then enters the second cooling pool 3 for secondary cooling, and finally enters the third cooling pool 4 for final cooling. The temperatures in the first cooling pool 2, the second cooling pool 3, and the third cooling pool 4 decrease sequentially, thus achieving gradient cooling of the cable body 5 and preventing a sudden drop in temperature that could cause internal stress and cracking of the cable body 5. The cable body 5 that has passed through the outside of the cooling chamber 1 is wound up by a winding roller.

[0028] Multiple limiting rods 6 are installed in the first cooling pool 2, the second cooling pool 3, and the third cooling pool 4, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 2 As shown, two limiting rods 6 are installed near the bottom of the second cooling pool 3, the third cooling pool 4 and the first cooling pool 2 to keep the cable body 5 in close contact with the water. Cable grooves 7 are provided in the two partitions 8 near the top. The cable body 5 passes through the cable grooves 7 and is guided to the outside of the cooling chamber 1 by the limiting rods 6. The cable body 5 passes through the first cooling pool 2, the second cooling pool 3 and the third cooling pool 4 in sequence. The cable body 5 moves from the first cooling pool 2 to the second cooling pool 3 through the multiple cable grooves 7, and then moves from the second cooling pool 3 to the third cooling pool 4. Finally, it moves to the outside of the cooling chamber 1 through the third cooling pool 4.

[0029] A fixing plate 9 is fixed to the outside of the cooling chamber 1 near the third cooling pool 4. At least one wiping structure is installed on the fixing plate 9. The wiping structure is used to wipe the cable body 5.

[0030] See attached document Figure 3 Each wiping structure includes two drive shafts 10, each drive shaft 10 is equipped with a drive wheel, and a drive suction belt 11 is driven between the two drive shafts 10. The drive wheel drives the drive suction belt 11. A motor 12 is installed on the top of the fixing plate 9. A protective cover can be provided on the outside of the motor 12. The output end of the motor 12 is fixedly connected to one of the drive shafts 10, while the other drive shaft 10 is rotatably connected to the fixing plate 9.

[0031] When wiping the cable body 5, the motor 12 can be driven so that the output end of the motor 12 drives one of the drive shafts 10 to rotate, and through one of the drive shafts 10 drives the drive adsorption belt 11 to rotate, and drives the other drive shaft 10 to rotate, thereby causing the drive adsorption belt 11 to rotate. Wiping components, such as absorbent cotton or other moisture-absorbing materials, are provided on the outside of the drive adsorption belt 11, so that the moisture on the surface of the cable body 5 can be wiped.

[0032] A squeezing structure is also installed on the fixed plate 9, which is used to squeeze out moisture.

[0033] See attached document Figure 4 The extrusion structure includes an extrusion plate 13 fixed to the top of the fixed plate 9 and located outside the transmission adsorption belt 11. The extrusion plate 13 abuts against the transmission adsorption belt 11. A support plate 14 is fixed to the top of the fixed plate 9 and located inside the transmission adsorption belt 11. The support plate 14 is in contact with the side of the transmission adsorption belt 11 near the extrusion plate 13.

[0034] When the drive suction belt 11 rotates to a position close to the extrusion plate 13, the water wiped inside the drive suction belt 11 is squeezed out by the extrusion plate 13 and blocked by the support plate 14. The water is squeezed out by the extrusion plate 13 and blocked by the support plate 14. The fixed plate 9 is provided with multiple guide grooves 18 inside and near the lower part of the extrusion plate 13, so that the guide grooves 18 can drain the water flowing down and prevent it from accumulating on the fixed plate 9.

[0035] See attached document Figure 5 A mounting frame 15 is fixed to the top of the fixing plate 9 and at the end of the wiping structure away from the cooling chamber 1. A fan 16 is installed inside the mounting frame 15. A first heating wire 17 is installed inside the mounting frame 15 and at the bottom of the fan 16. With this arrangement, after the cable body 5 is wiped dry, the fan 16 blows hot air onto the cable body 5 by starting the first heating wire 17 and the fan 16, thus drying the cable body 5.

[0036] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the field.
