These drawings are part of the disclosure of the present invention and are mainly used to illustrate the embodiments, and can be used in conjunction with the relevant descriptions in the specification to explain the operating principles of the embodiments. With reference to these drawings, those skilled in the art should be able to understand other possible implementations and the advantages of the present invention. Components in the drawings are not drawn to scale, and similar component symbols are generally used to represent similar components.

[0025] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this embodiment provides a wire gauge tube insertion device for assembling wire gauge tube 6 and cables, replacing manual operation mode.

[0027] The wire marking tube threading device of this embodiment includes a frame 5 and a feeding mechanism 1, a tube supporting mechanism 2, a tube threading mechanism 3 and a printing mechanism 7 mounted on the frame 5. The feeding mechanism 1, the tube supporting mechanism 2 and the tube threading mechanism 3 are arranged sequentially along the processing direction of the wire marking tube 6 (e.g., from left to right). The feeding mechanism 1 is used to supply the wire marking tube 6, the tube supporting mechanism 2 is used to open the opening of the wire marking tube 6, the tube threading mechanism 3 is used to thread the wire marking tube 6 onto the cable, and the printing mechanism 7 is used to print wire markings on the wire marking tube 6, such as by laser printing.

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the tube-threading mechanism 3 includes a turntable assembly 31, a positioning assembly 32 for positioning cables, and six tube-threading assemblies 33 disposed on the turntable assembly 31. The positioning assembly 32 includes a gripper of the prior art and a cylinder that cooperates with the gripper to lift and lower, so as to clamp, position, lift and lower the cable, and at the same time realize the supply of the cable to be processed from the right side of the cable number tube threading device.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, a movable pushing component 4 is provided between the tube support mechanism 2 and the tube insertion assembly 33, and between the tube insertion assembly 33 and the positioning component 32, for pushing the wire tube 6 from the tube support mechanism 2 to the tube insertion assembly 33 and pushing the wire tube 6 out of the tube insertion assembly 33 and threading it onto the positioning component 32.

[0030] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the feeding mechanism 1 includes a guide roller 11 for guiding the wire gauge tube roll 6', a guide groove 12 for supporting the wire gauge tube roll 6', and a clamping assembly 13 for clamping and feeding the wire gauge tube roll 6'. Specifically, the clamping assembly 13 includes a movable first clamp and a first motion module for driving the first clamp to move. The upper and lower groove walls of the guide groove 12 are provided with clearance openings to cooperate with the first clamp.

[0031] The tube-supporting mechanism 2 includes a shearing assembly 21 for cutting the wire tube coil 6', an opening assembly 22 for opening the tube opening of the wire tube 6, a tube-supporting assembly 24 for spreading the tube opening of the wire tube 6, and a lateral movement driver 23 for driving the tube-supporting assembly 24 to move laterally. The shearing assembly 21 is disposed between the opening assembly 22 and the guide trough 12, and the specific shearing assembly 21 includes a cooperating upper cutter 211 and a lower cutter 212. Of course, in this embodiment, the lateral movement driver 23 is a cylinder.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, the opening component 22 includes a first driver 221, a second driver 222, and an upper suction cup 223 and a lower suction cup 224 arranged above and below. Both the first driver 221 and the second driver 222 are cylinders. The telescopic end of the first driver 221 is equipped with the upper suction cup 223, and the telescopic end of the second driver 222 is equipped with the lower suction cup 224, so that the upper suction cup 223 and the lower suction cup 224 are used to adsorb the upper and lower surfaces of the wire tube 6, respectively.

[0033] When the wire tube coil 6' is being clamped, the two clamping ends of the first clamp of the clamping assembly 13 are respectively provided with corresponding clearance openings to clamp the wire tube coil 6' in the guide groove 12 and clamp it towards the shearing assembly 21. At the same time, the wire tube coil 6' is also dragged along.

[0034] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the turntable assembly 31 includes a first turntable 311 and an eccentric disk 312. Each tube-passing assembly 33 of the tube-passing mechanism 3 includes a rotating component 333, a support sleeve 331 for sleeved with wire number tube 6, a guide rod 332 movably disposed in the support sleeve 331, and an elastic limiting unit connected to the end of the guide rod 332 near the eccentric disk 312. The first turntable 311 rotates relative to the eccentric disk 312, that is, the eccentric disk 312 is fixed and the first turntable 311 is rotatable. The six support sleeves 331 are respectively fixedly connected to the circumferential wall of the first turntable 311. Each elastic limiting unit includes a support component 334 and a spring. Each support component 334 has two support arms spaced apart.

[0035] The specific rotating component 333 is a bearing. The rotating component 333 is rotatably assembled between the two support arms through a pin. The guide rod 332 is tapered away from the guide end of the first turntable 311, so that the guide rod 332 can be inserted into the pipe opening of the wire tube 6 more smoothly.

[0036] like Figure 6 As shown, the outer peripheral wall of the eccentric disk 312 is inserted between the two support arms with a clearance fit, and the spring is disposed between the support member 334 and the support tube sleeve 331 so that the outer peripheral surface of the rotating member 333 is elastically slidably in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the eccentric disk 312. When the guide rod 332 retracts into the support tube sleeve 331, the spring applies a spring force in the direction of the eccentric disk 312 to ensure that the outer ring of the bearing is always slidably in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the eccentric disk 312 and maintains elastic contact with each other, that is, an elastic sliding contact is formed.

[0037] In addition, such as Figure 4As shown, the tube support assembly 24 includes a rotatable second turntable 241 and six opening members 242 spaced apart on the second turntable 241. The tube support assembly 24 is slidably mounted on the frame 5 via a guide rail structure on the frame 5. The frame 5 is fixedly equipped with a first stroke limit member 26 for limiting the tube support assembly 24 from moving excessively away from the opening member 22, so as to play a role in accurately adjusting the position.

[0038] Also, such as Figure 1 As shown, the pushing component 4 includes a movable second gripper 41 and a second motion module 42 for driving the second gripper 41 to move. The second gripper 41 is used to push the wire tube 6 from the tube support mechanism 2 to the tube insertion assembly 33 and to push the wire tube 6 out of the tube insertion assembly 33 and thread it onto the cable on the positioning assembly 32.

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, in this specific embodiment, the turntable assembly 31 is slidably mounted on the frame 5 via the guide rail structure on the frame 5, and the frame 5 is equipped with a third driver 34, such as a cylinder, for driving the turntable assembly 31 to move laterally, and the frame 5 is fixedly equipped with a second stroke limiter 35 for limiting the excessive movement of the tube-penetrating assembly 33 toward the positioning assembly 32, so as to play the role of accurately adjusting the position.

[0040] When the right end of the wire gauge tube roll 6' is conveyed to the opening assembly 22, the clamping assembly 13 pauses its clamping action and drives the upper suction cup 223 and the lower suction cup 224 respectively through the first driver 221 and the second driver 222, so that the upper suction cup 223 and the lower suction cup 224 move away from each other or move closer together. That is, first, the upper suction cup 223 and the lower suction cup 224 are brought closer together until they adsorb the upper and lower surfaces of the wire gauge tube roll 6', and then the upper suction cup 223 and the lower suction cup 224 are moved away from each other, so that the wire gauge tube roll 6' is... The tube opening changes from a flattened state to an open state. Then, through the leftward lateral movement of the lateral movement driver 23, it is pre-fitted onto the spreading member 242. After that, the spreading component 22 resets and releases the wire tube roll 6'. Then, through the second clamping action of the clamping component 13, the end of the wire tube roll 6' closest to the spreading component 24 is completely fitted onto the spreading member 242. Then, by driving the upper cutter 211 and the lower cutter 212 to move closer or further apart, the wire tube roll 6' is cut into a wire tube 6 of a preset length.

[0041] After the wire marking tube roll 6' is cut by the upper cutter 211 and the lower cutter 212 to form a single wire marking tube 6, the wire marking tube 6 is completely fitted onto the support member 242. Then, the second turntable 241 is rotated to make the support member 242 with the wire marking tube 6 rotate and align with the guide rod 332 and the support tube sleeve 331 on the first turntable 311. Then, the support tube assembly 24, together with the wire marking tube 6, is moved closer to the first turntable 311 by the transverse drive 23 and enters the laser printing area. After the printing mechanism 7 finishes printing the wire markings, the push assembly 4 is moved between the first turntable 311 and the second turntable 241. The synchronous eccentric disk 312 drives the guide rod 332 to extend on the support tube sleeve 331. The second gripper 41 pushes the wire marking tube 6 on the support member 242 to the right along the guide rod 332 until the wire marking tube 6 is completely fitted onto the support tube sleeve 331. Then, the support tube assembly 24 is reset.

[0042] Then, the first turntable 311 is rotated, and during the rotation of the first turntable 311, the guide rod 332 gradually retracts into the support tube sleeve 331. At the same time, the support tube sleeve 331 with the wire number tube 6 is also rotated until it is aligned with the cable on the positioning component 32. Then, the third driver 34 moves the turntable component 31, the tube insertion component 33, and the wire number tube 6 together toward the positioning component 32. After that, the push component 4 is moved between the first turntable 311 and the positioning component 32. The second gripper 41 pushes the wire number tube 6 on the support tube sleeve 331 to the right until the wire number tube 6 is fitted onto the cable to complete the insertion operation of the wire number tube 6.

[0043] Through the combined action of the feeding mechanism 1, the tube support mechanism 2, the tube threading mechanism 3, and the pushing component 4, the opening of the wire tube 6 is opened, and the wire tube 6 with the opened opening is threaded onto the cable. This can replace the manual operation method of threading the wire tube 6 onto the cable, so as to effectively ensure the work efficiency and save time and effort.

[0044] Of course, in other embodiments, the number of tube-through components 33 and support members 242 may also be one, two, three, four, five or more.

[0045] Although the present invention has been specifically shown and described in conjunction with preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes in form and detail may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims, and all such changes shall be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
