Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of strip winding apparatus, and more specifically, to a simple winding apparatus for receiving tubes. Background Technology

[0002] When recreational racing boats navigate on the water, they are connected to a floating boat via a tube to maintain balance. Both ends of the tube connect to pre-embedded receiving pipes inside the racing boat and the floating boat, respectively. Therefore, the dimensional accuracy of the inner wall of the pre-embedded receiving pipes is crucial. Currently, the receiving pipes are mostly made of carbon fiber composite materials, which, due to their high strength and low density, effectively enhance the racing boat's performance.

[0003] Existing methods for curing carbon fiber products typically employ vacuum packs to effectively maintain product shape and compact carbon fiber layers. However, for receiving tubes, this vacuum pack curing method presents several challenges: firstly, existing receiving tubes are small in size and numerous, making the vacuum pack curing process cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive; secondly, after vacuum packing, the receiving tube must be placed horizontally in the curing tank for curing. During curing, the resin flows downwards under gravity, affecting the dimensions of the inner and outer walls of the receiving tube, leading to dimensional deviations that fail to meet high precision requirements. Considering these issues, the applicant proposes a curing method suitable for receiving tubes: wrapping the receiving tube with PP tape and vertically inserting it into a fixture within the curing tank for curing. This method ensures dimensional accuracy of the inner and outer walls of the receiving tube while simultaneously ensuring tight compaction of the carbon fiber layers during curing.

[0004] However, in practical applications, the PP tape winding process of this method is currently mainly carried out manually. Workers manually wind the PP tape onto the receiving tube. Due to the limitations of manual operation, the tightness of the manually wound PP tape is uneven, which can easily lead to certain deviations in the inner and outer dimensions of the finished receiving tube, affecting the fitting accuracy between the receiving tube and the ship tube. At the same time, manual winding is inefficient, labor-intensive, and difficult to scale up for mass production.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a winding device for receiving tubes that can solve the above problems, so as to improve production efficiency and meet current production needs. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, the present invention provides a simple winding device for receiving tubes, solving the issues of low winding efficiency and uneven tension of the winding tape during the curing process of existing receiving tubes. The device includes a worktable; a chuck is vertically mounted on the worktable, connected to a first drive unit that rotates the chuck; a clamping assembly for holding the receiving tube is mounted on the surface of the chuck; a linear displacement assembly is mounted along the length of the worktable, and a winding assembly is mounted at the output end of the linear displacement assembly; the winding assembly includes a bracket rotatably connected to a rotating shaft, with a winding tape wound on the surface of the rotating shaft, one end of which engages with the receiving tube.

[0007] Preferably, the linear displacement assembly includes a guide rail horizontally disposed on the worktable and a mounting base slidably connected to the guide rail, the mounting base being connected to a second drive unit for driving its sliding.

[0008] Preferably, the winding assembly includes a support platform connected to the mounting base, with a bracket and a vertical plate arranged side by side on the surface of the support platform, and a guide shaft assembly that cooperates with and guides the winding tape on the vertical plate.

[0009] Preferably, the guide shaft assembly includes an upper roll and a lower roll arranged sequentially from top to bottom, the vertical plate is provided with a strip groove along its length, the lower roll is fixedly connected to the vertical plate, and the upper roll is slidably connected to the strip groove.

[0010] Preferably, the upper roller is connected to a spring, and the other end of the spring is connected to the top of the inner wall of the strip groove; the back of the upright plate is provided with a pressure handle that cooperates with the upper roller to make it slide.

[0011] Preferably, the support platform and the mounting base are slidably connected along the width direction of the worktable.

[0012] Preferably, there is at least one guide rail, which is arranged parallel to the side of the worktable.

[0013] Preferably, the bracket includes a horizontally arranged support section and a vertically arranged fixing section. The support section is arranged in a direction away from the receiving tube, and the fixing section is located at the end of the support section. The rotating shaft is located at the midpoint of the support section.

[0014] Preferably, the clamping assembly includes three evenly spaced jaws disposed on the chuck surface, with the jaws positioned toward the center of the chuck.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The worktable is equipped with a chuck and a linear displacement assembly. The chuck drives the receiving tube to rotate. Through the coordinated winding of the receiving tube and the linear displacement assembly, the winding tape is ensured to be evenly and tightly wound on the surface of the receiving tube, improving the dimensional accuracy of the inner and outer walls of the cured receiving tube and making the fit between the receiving tube and the ship tube more precise.

Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0025] The present application will now describe a simple winding device for receiving tubes according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The simple receiving tube winding device includes a worktable 1; a chuck 2 is vertically mounted on the worktable 1, and the chuck 2 is connected to a first drive unit that drives its rotation; the surface of the chuck 2 is provided with a clamping assembly for holding the receiving tube 3; a linear displacement assembly is provided along the length direction of the worktable 1, and a winding assembly is provided at the output end of the linear displacement assembly; the winding assembly includes a bracket 5 rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 4, and a winding tape 6 is wound on the surface of the rotating shaft 4, one end of which engages with the receiving tube 3. Specifically, the winding tape 6 is, but is not limited to, PP tape or other tape materials.

[0027] When it is necessary to wrap the receiving tube 3 with PP tape or other materials, the operator uses the clamping assembly to fix the receiving tube 3 to be wrapped onto the chuck 2, and then fixes one end of the wrapping tape 6 to the glass cloth of the receiving tube 3 (the starting wrapping position). The first drive unit is started, driving the chuck 2 and the receiving tube 3 to rotate. At the same time, the linear displacement assembly is started, driving the wrapping assembly to move forward along the length of the worktable 1. As the receiving tube 3 rotates and the wrapping assembly moves linearly, the wrapping tape 6 is released from the rotating shaft 4 and evenly wrapped onto the surface of the receiving tube 3. When the end of the receiving tube 3 is also wrapped, the first drive unit and the linear displacement assembly are turned off, and the wrapped receiving tube 3 is removed, completing one wrapping operation. During the wrapping process, the operator can adjust the rotation speed of the first drive unit and the moving speed of the linear displacement assembly according to the size of the receiving tube 3 and the wrapping processing requirements. Compared with manual wrapping, the cooperative wrapping of the receiving tube 3 and the linear displacement assembly ensures that the wrapping tape 6 can be wrapped evenly and tightly onto the surface of the receiving tube 3, improving the dimensional accuracy of the inner and outer walls of the receiving tube 3 after curing, and making the fit between the receiving tube 3 and the ship tube more precise. The device is highly automated, shortening the winding time of the receiving tube 3 and meeting the needs of large-scale production; it avoids the problem of uneven tightness during manual winding, saving labor costs. The overall structure of the device is simple and can be modified from scrap machine tools, resulting in low equipment manufacturing and maintenance costs.

[0028] Specifically, the linear displacement assembly includes a guide rail 7 horizontally mounted on the worktable 1 and a mounting base 8 slidably connected to the guide rail 7. The mounting base 8 is connected to a second drive unit that drives its sliding motion. The second drive unit drives the mounting base 8 to move linearly along the guide rail 7, coordinating with the rotation of the receiving tube 3 to ensure that the winding tape 6 is evenly wound onto the receiving tube 3. The second drive unit can be, but is not limited to, a combination of a motor and a lead screw and nut, a cylinder, or a linear motor.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 Furthermore, the winding assembly includes a support platform 9 connected to the mounting base 8. The support platform 9 has a bracket 5 and a vertical plate 10 arranged side by side on its surface. The vertical plate 10 has a guide shaft assembly that cooperates with and guides the winding tape 6. The winding tape 6 is released from the rotating shaft 4, tensioned and guided by the guide shaft assembly, and can be accurately and evenly wound onto the receiving tube 3.

[0030] Furthermore, the guide shaft assembly includes an upper roll 12 and a lower roll 13 arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The vertical plate 10 is provided with a strip groove 11 along its length. The lower roll 13 is fixedly connected to the vertical plate 10, and the upper roll 12 is slidably connected to the strip groove 11.

[0031] Please see Figures 2 to 4 Furthermore, the upper roller 12 is connected to a spring 14, the other end of which is connected to the top of the inner wall of the strip groove 11. The back of the upright plate 10 is provided with a pressure handle 15 that cooperates with the upper roller 12 to allow it to slide. By pressing the handle end of the pressure handle 15, the operator lifts the front end of the pressure handle 15, pushing the upper roller 12, which cooperates with it, to slide upwards within the strip groove 11. This adjusts the position and guide of the winding tape 6 between the upper roller 12 and the lower roller 13, facilitating the removal or installation of the winding tape 6. Under the action of the spring 14, the upper roller 12 can finely adjust its position up and down according to the actual tension of the winding tape 6, thereby automatically adjusting the tension of the winding tape 6. This ensures that the winding tape 6 remains taut throughout the winding process, and that the tension of the winding tape 6 on the receiving tube 3 remains uniform. This reduces downtime caused by manual adjustment of the winding tape 6, allowing the winding work to proceed continuously and stably, thus improving the efficiency of the winding operation.

[0032] Furthermore, the support platform 9 and the mounting base 8 are slidably connected along the width of the workbench 1. Workers can flexibly adjust the position of the winding assembly in the width of the workbench 1 according to the winding requirements, so that it cooperates with the linear displacement assembly to accommodate different specifications of winding tape 6 and receiving tube 3.

[0033] In one embodiment, there is at least one guide rail 7, which is arranged parallel to the side of the worktable 1. In this embodiment, there are three guide rails 7, which are evenly spaced on the side of the worktable 1.

[0034] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 Furthermore, the bracket 5 includes a horizontally arranged support section 501 and a vertically arranged fixing section 502. The support section 501 is arranged away from the receiving tube 3, and the fixing section 502 is located at the end of the support section 501; the rotating shaft 4 is located at the midpoint of the support section 501. Specifically, the fixing section 502 is located at the end of the support section 501, which allows the bracket 5 to accommodate more different specifications of winding tape 6, thus improving its applicability.

[0035] In one embodiment, the clamping assembly includes three evenly spaced jaws 16 disposed on the surface of the chuck 2. The jaws 16 are positioned toward the center of the chuck 2 to firmly clamp the receiving tube 3, preventing the receiving tube 3 from loosening when rotating and improving the stability of the winding operation.

[0036] Furthermore, the mounting base 8 is provided with an operating handle 17 for controlling the sliding direction of the mounting base 8. In this embodiment, the surface of the guide rail 7 is provided with teeth, and the mounting base 8 is provided with a ratchet that cooperates with the guide rail 7. The operating handle 17 can control the ratchet to rotate and reverse it, thereby driving the mounting base 8 to slide in the opposite direction along the guide rail 7. This part is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0037] The working process of this utility model is as follows: During use, the operator fixes the receiving tube 3 to be wound onto the chuck 2, and then secures one end of the winding tape 6 to the glass cloth of the receiving tube 3. The first drive unit is activated, causing the chuck 2 and the receiving tube 3 to rotate. Simultaneously, the second drive unit is activated, and the linear displacement assembly moves the winding assembly closer to the receiving tube 3. The winding tape 6 is tensioned and guided by the guide shaft assembly, and evenly wound onto the receiving tube 3. When the winding process is complete, the first drive unit and the linear displacement assembly are turned off, and the wound receiving tube 3 is removed, completing one winding operation.

[0038] In this invention, the workbench 1 is equipped with a chuck 2 and a linear displacement assembly. The chuck 2 drives the receiving tube 3 to rotate. Through the cooperation of the receiving tube 3 and the linear displacement assembly, the winding tape 6 is ensured to be evenly and tightly wound on the surface of the receiving tube 3, improving the dimensional accuracy of the inner and outer walls of the receiving tube 3 after curing, and making the fit between the receiving tube 3 and the ship tube more precise. The device has a high degree of automation, shortens the winding time of the receiving tube 3, and can meet the needs of large-scale production; it avoids the problem of uneven tension when manually winding, saving labor costs. The winding tape 6 is released from the rotating shaft 4, tensioned and guided by the guide shaft assembly, and can be accurately and evenly wound onto the receiving tube 3. Under the action of the spring 14, the upper winding shaft 12 in the guide shaft assembly can automatically adjust the tension of the winding tape 6, ensuring that the winding tape 6 is always taut during the winding process, and the tension of the winding tape 6 on the receiving tube 3 is always uniform, reducing the downtime caused by manual adjustment of the winding tape 6, enabling the winding work to be carried out continuously and stably, and improving the winding operation efficiency.
