Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of hose processing equipment technology, and more specifically, to a hose processing guiding device. Background Technology

[0002] Rubber hoses are a type of tubular rubber product used to transport gases, liquids, slurries, or granular materials. They consist of inner and outer rubber layers and a reinforcing layer. Guide frames are used during the processing and transportation of rubber hoses.

[0003] In response, Chinese patent application number CN202323579976.2 discloses a hose processing guiding device. This solution mainly uses a rotating motor and a limiting roller. The rotating motor drives a bidirectional lead screw to rotate, and then the sliding block on the surface of the bidirectional lead screw moves horizontally, so that the limiting roller limits the hose. This achieves the limitation of hoses of different sizes and prevents the hose from deviating or shaking during processing.

[0004] However, in the process of implementing the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application, the inventors of this utility model discovered that the above-mentioned technology has at least the following technical problems:

[0005] 1. The two limiting rollers make point contact with the hose, resulting in a small contact area that can easily cause the hose to deform.

[0006] 2. The orientation of the two limit rollers is not easy to determine, requiring multiple adjustments, which affects operational efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0007] To overcome the above deficiencies, this application provides a hose processing and guiding device, which aims to improve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0008] This application provides a hose processing and guiding device, including a frame with cantilever arms arranged in a circular array on the frame. Rollers are rotatably connected to the outer ends of the cantilever arms, and the cantilever arms are rotatably connected to the frame. A driving mechanism is provided on the frame to drive the cantilever arms to deflect synchronously. A telescopic rod is provided at the lower end of the frame, and a base is provided at the lower end of the telescopic rod. Infrared detectors are provided on both sides of the frame.

[0009] In one specific implementation, the frame includes an outer frame and an inner frame, the outer frame being fixedly connected to the inner frame, and the cantilever being hinged to the inner frame.

[0010] In the above implementation, the inner frame is used for the six cantilever hinges, while the outer frame is used for connection with the drive mechanism.

[0011] In one specific implementation, the drive mechanism includes a grooved ring threadedly connected to the outer frame, and levers fixedly connected to the cantilever, with all levers sliding within the grooved ring.

[0012] In the above process, the grooved ring will move axially when it rotates. By moving the lever, the lever will deflect, which will drive the cantilever to deflect, thereby adjusting the contraction and expansion of the six rollers.

[0013] In one specific implementation, the drive mechanism further includes a motor that drives the grooved ring to rotate.

[0014] In the above implementation process, the motor adopts servo control to drive the grooved ring to rotate according to preset parameters, thereby quickly adjusting the roller to the designated position.

[0015] In one specific implementation, the drive mechanism further includes a gear ring and a gear, the gear ring being fixedly connected to the grooved ring, the gear being fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, and the gear meshing with the gear ring.

[0016] In the above process, the motor drives the gear ring to rotate through the gear, which in turn drives the grooved ring to rotate, thus realizing power transmission. It should be noted that the motor has a built-in reduction mechanism, which increases the self-locking capability of the roller.

[0017] In one specific implementation, the telescopic rod includes an inner rod and an outer rod, the inner rod being telescopically connected to the outer rod, and a locking sleeve being screwed onto the outer rod, the locking sleeve securing the opening of the outer rod to the outer circumference of the inner rod.

[0018] In the above process, the inner rod and the outer rod extend and retract to adjust the height. The inner rod can also rotate relative to the outer rod to adjust the orientation of the frame. After the height is adjusted, the locking sleeve is tightened. The locking sleeve uses a conical surface to tighten the opening of the outer rod, thereby locking the inner rod. The inner rod and the outer rod are then fixed together. The telescopic rod is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0019] In one specific implementation, the base includes a fixed seat, and a counterweight is disposed within the fixed seat.

[0020] In the above process, the counterweight is used to lower the center of gravity, thereby enabling the device to be stably supported.

[0021] In one specific implementation, a spring is provided between the counterweight and the base, and a omnidirectional ball is provided at the lower end of the counterweight.

[0022] In the above process, pulling the telescopic rod upwards compresses the spring, keeping the universal ball on the counterweight on the ground. At this time, the guide device can be moved horizontally for adjustment. After releasing, the fixed seat falls to the ground under the action of gravity, which plays a role in friction with the ground and thus fixing the position. This reduces the lifting force and facilitates operation. It should be noted that a guide rod is fixedly connected to the counterweight and slides inside the outer rod. When the telescopic rod is tilted, the counterweight can also tilt with the telescopic rod, thus playing a good counterweight role.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are: the light spot emitted by the infrared instrument can help determine the orientation of the ring frame; the ring frame, cantilever and roller form a conical structure, which does not have high requirements for the incoming material direction; multiple rollers are attached to the circumference of the rubber tube, which can effectively reduce the deformation of the rubber tube.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-4This application provides a hose processing and guiding device, including a frame 10, with cantilever 20 arranged in a circular array on the frame 10. Rollers 30 are rotatably connected to the outer ends of the cantilever 20, and the cantilever 20 is rotatably connected to the frame 10. A drive mechanism 40 is provided on the frame 10 to drive the cantilever 20 to deflect synchronously. A telescopic rod 50 is provided at the lower end of the frame 10, and a base 60 is provided at the lower end of the telescopic rod 50. Infrared detectors 70 are respectively provided on both sides of the frame 10. The light spot emitted by the infrared detectors 70 can help determine the orientation of the frame 10. The frame 10, cantilever 20, and rollers 30 form a conical structure, which is less demanding on the incoming material direction. Multiple rollers 30 are fitted around the hose, effectively reducing hose deformation.

[0032] Please see Figures 1-4 The frame 10 includes an outer frame 11 and an inner frame 12. The outer frame 11 is fixedly connected to the inner frame 12, and the cantilever 20 is hinged to the inner frame 12. The inner frame 12 is used for hinged connection of the six cantilever 20, while the outer frame 11 is used for connection to the drive mechanism 40.

[0033] Please see Figures 1-4 The drive mechanism 40 includes a grooved ring 41, which is threadedly connected to the outer frame 11. A lever 21 is fixedly connected to the cantilever 20, and all levers 21 slide within the grooved ring 41. When the grooved ring 41 rotates, it will move axially. By moving the levers 21, the levers 21 will deflect, thereby driving the cantilever 20 to deflect, and thus adjusting the contraction and expansion of the six rollers 30.

[0034] Please see Figures 1-4 The drive mechanism 40 also includes a motor 42, which drives the grooved ring 41 to rotate. The motor 42 is servo controlled and drives the grooved ring 41 to rotate according to preset parameters, thereby quickly adjusting the roller 30 to a specified position.

[0035] Please see Figures 1-4 The drive mechanism 40 also includes a gear ring 43 and a gear 44. The gear ring 43 is fixedly connected to the grooved ring 41, and the gear 44 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 42. The gear 44 meshes with the gear ring 43. The motor 42 drives the gear ring 43 to rotate through the gear 44, which in turn drives the grooved ring 41 to rotate, thus realizing power transmission. It should be noted that the motor 42 has a built-in reduction mechanism, thereby increasing the self-locking capability of the roller 30.

[0036] Please see Figures 1-4The telescopic rod 50 includes an inner rod 51 and an outer rod 52. The inner rod 51 and the outer rod 52 are telescopically connected. A locking sleeve 53 is screwed onto the outer rod 52, which tightens the opening of the outer rod 52 to the outer circumference of the inner rod 51. The inner rod 51 and the outer rod 52 telescopically extend and retract, thereby adjusting the height. The inner rod 51 can also rotate relative to the outer rod 52, thereby adjusting the orientation of the frame 10. After the height adjustment is completed, the locking sleeve 53 is tightened. The locking sleeve 53 uses its conical surface to tighten the opening of the outer rod 52, thereby locking the inner rod 51. The inner rod 51 and the outer rod 52 are then relatively fixed together. The telescopic rod 50 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0037] Please see Figures 1-4 The base 60 includes a fixed seat 61, and a counterweight 62 is provided inside the fixed seat 61. The counterweight 62 is used to lower the center of gravity, thereby enabling the device to be stably supported.

[0038] Please see Figures 1-4 A spring 63 is installed between the counterweight 62 and the base 60, and a universal ball 64 is installed at the lower end of the counterweight 62. When the telescopic rod 50 is pulled upward, the spring 63 is compressed, and the universal ball 64 on the counterweight 62 remains on the ground. At this time, the guide device can be moved horizontally for adjustment. After releasing, the fixed seat 61 falls to the ground under the action of gravity, which plays a role in friction with the ground and thus fixing the position. This reduces the lifting force and facilitates operation. It should be noted that a guide rod is fixedly connected to the counterweight 62 and slides inside the outer rod 52. When the telescopic rod 50 is tilted, the counterweight 62 can also tilt with the telescopic rod 50, thus playing a good counterweight role.

[0039] The working principle of this hose processing and guiding device is as follows: Based on the comparison between the light spot emitted by the infrared instrument 70 and the height at which the hose will enter, the height of the telescopic rod 50 is adjusted, then the locking sleeve 53 is locked, and then the inner rod 51 is lifted, causing the fixed seat 61 to leave the ground. The universal ball 64 then rolls in contact with the ground, and the direction of the ring frame 10 is adjusted according to the light emitted by the infrared instrument 70 to the position where the hose will enter. Then, the device is released, and the fixed seat 61 falls to the ground under gravity, rubbing against the ground to fix its position. The hose is then passed between the ring frame 10, the cantilever 20, and the roller 30, and then led out. The motor 42 then... Gear 44 drives gear ring 43 to rotate, which in turn drives grooved ring 41 to rotate. When the grooved ring 41 rotates, it will move axially. By moving lever 21, lever 21 will deflect, which will drive cantilever 20 to deflect. This will adjust the six rollers 30 to retract to the position of fitting the outer circle of the rubber tube, achieving a circular six-point contact with the rubber tube, which can effectively reduce the deformation of the rubber tube. In summary, the light spot emitted by infrared instrument 70 can help determine the direction of ring frame 10. The ring frame 10, cantilever 20 and rollers 30 form a conical structure, which does not have high requirements for the incoming material direction. Multiple rollers 30 fit around the rubber tube, which can effectively reduce the deformation of the rubber tube.
