Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable testing instrument technology, specifically a lifting device for the main unit of a cable surface defect testing instrument. Background Technology
[0002] The cable surface defect detector is an intelligent inspection device based on machine vision technology. It uses a high-precision line scan camera and a multi-angle light source system to scan the cable surface in real time. Utilizing AI image algorithms, it automatically identifies various defects such as scratches, damage, bubbles, dents, eccentricity, and exposed copper. It is suitable for online inspection scenarios of cables of different specifications, including power cables, communication optical cables, and automotive wiring harnesses. The equipment features high inspection speed (up to hundreds of meters per minute), high recognition accuracy (detecting defects as small as 0.05mm), and a high degree of automation. It can output inspection data in real time and link with the production line to achieve defect alarms, automatic sorting, or marking. It effectively replaces manual visual inspection, improves the efficiency of cable production quality control, reduces the missed inspection rate and labor costs, and is widely used in the entire process quality monitoring of industries such as cable manufacturing, electronic components, and new energy cables.
[0003] Currently, the testing instruments are subject to significant variations in output platform height across different cable production lines due to environmental factors. Fixed-height main units require adaptation through methods such as raising the base and modifying the bracket, which not only increases tooling costs but may also introduce vibration interference due to mechanical modifications, further affecting testing stability. Therefore, mechanical improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

[0020] 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.
[0021] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 A lifting device for a cable surface defect detector includes a body 1. Multiple adjustable casters 2 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the body 1. The adjustable casters 2 allow for easy movement of the entire structure by adjusting their height. Multiple support legs 3 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the body 1, providing support for the overall structure when the adjustable casters 2 are retracted.
[0022] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2Inside the body 1, a detection box 4 is slidably installed. Cable guide devices 13 are provided at both ends of the detection box 4. Inside the body 1, a bracket 5 is fixedly installed by bolts. An electric cylinder 6 is fixedly installed on the bracket 5. A mounting base 7 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the output end of the electric cylinder 6. A connecting frame 8 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting base 7 by bolts. The connecting frame 8 is fixedly connected to the detection box 4. On the outside of the detection box 4, a mounting frame 10 is fixedly installed by bolts. A slide block 11 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the mounting frame 10. A slide rail 12 is slidably sleeved inside the slide block 11. The slide rail 12 is fixedly installed inside the body 1. A fall protection mechanism 9 is provided on the slide block 11.
[0023] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 The fall arrestor 9 includes a groove 91. A groove 91 is formed inside the slide rail 12. A retaining ball 92 is movably fitted inside the groove 91. There are multiple grooves 91, evenly distributed inside the slide rail 12. The grooves 91 are designed so that the retaining ball 92 can roll into different positions within the grooves 91. The retaining ball 92 is movably connected to the slide block 11. A slider 93 is movably fitted outside the retaining ball 92. The slider 93 is slidably connected to the slide block 11. A guide rod 94 is slidably fitted inside the slider 93. The guide rod 94 is connected to the slide block 11. 1. Fixed connection: A spring 95 is provided on the outer side of the guide rod 94. One end of the spring 95 is fixedly connected to the slider 93, and the other end of the spring 95 is fixedly connected to the slide block 11. By designing the spring 95, the force of the spring 95 can be applied to the slider 93. A ball 96 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the slider 93. The other end of the ball 96 is fixedly connected to the slide block 11. By designing the ball 96, the slider 93 can be pressed tightly to prevent it from shaking and moving horizontally. By designing the anti-fall mechanism 9, the stability of the detection box 4 after height adjustment can be improved.
[0024] The specific implementation process of this utility model is as follows: In use, the cable is guided and moved by the cable guide device 13. The cable passes through the inside of the detection box 4 to detect defects on the surface of the cable. When the electric cylinder 6 is started, the output end of the electric cylinder 6 drives the mounting base 7 to move vertically. The mounting base 7 drives the connecting frame 8 to move, and the connecting frame 8 drives the detection box 4 to move vertically. The height of the detection box 4 and the cable guide device 13 can then be adjusted. The cable exit height can be automatically adjusted according to the production site to improve the effectiveness of the device.
[0025] When the test box 4 moves, the test box 4 will drive the mounting frame 10 to move, and the mounting frame 10 can drive the slide block 11 to slide along the slide rail 12. During the movement of the test box 4, the movement of the test box 4 can be guided, which can improve the movement stability of the test box 4.
[0026] During the movement of the slide block 11, the slide block 11 will drive the retaining ball 92 to move. The retaining ball 92 will roll along the arc surface of the groove 91 inside the slide rail 12. The retaining ball 92 will be squeezed and pushed to move away from the slide rail 12. The retaining ball 92 will drive the slider 93 to slide along the guide rod 94 and squeeze the spring 95. At the same time, the slider 93 can squeeze the spring ball 96, which will then separate the retaining ball 92 from the groove 91. As the slide block 11 moves, when the detection box 4 has finished moving, the slide block 11 stops moving. At this time, under the elastic action of the spring 95 and the spring ball 96, a reverse thrust will be given to the slider 93. The slider 93 will push the retaining ball 92 to move in the opposite direction and reset. The retaining ball 92 can be pushed into the groove 91 in another position. Through the insertion of the retaining ball 92 into the groove 91, the slide block 11 can be limited, and the relative position of the slide block 11 and the slide rail 12 can be fixed. This can improve the stability of the detection box 4 after adjustment, avoid the problem of the detection box 4 falling due to the failure of the electric cylinder 6, and improve the safety of lifting and lowering.
[0027] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
