Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of diameter measurement technology, and more specifically, to an online diameter measurement device for annealing tin plating machines. Background Technology
[0002] An annealing tin plating machine is a device used for metal surface treatment, especially for tin plating copper wire or copper bars. During the annealing tin plating of copper wire, a section of the wire may fail to meet the standard production range due to mechanical failure of the production equipment, human error in production or installation, or changes in the mold within the tin furnace. Therefore, an online diameter measuring machine was developed.
[0003] In existing technologies, such as the real-time synchronous wire diameter testing machine for copper wire production in annealing and tin plating machines (publication number CN115540805A), online testing is performed by pulling copper wires into the diameter measuring instrument using a wire guide wheel. Since multiple copper wires need to be measured, an X-axis motor is required to drive the entire housing (with the wire guide wheel mounted on it) to move between the wires. However, after the wire guide wheel reaches between two copper wires, and the Y-axis motor drives it through the two wires, the X-axis motor still needs to drive the housing to move the wire guide wheel a short distance towards the wire to be measured, ensuring that the wire guide wheel can pull the copper wire. The reverse is true when retracting the wire. It is evident that the X-axis is the driving component that moves the entire housing along its main stroke. If the short distance the wire guide wheel moves after passing through the copper wire also needs to be controlled, it is difficult to guarantee control accuracy, and consequently, it is difficult to ensure that the wire guide wheel can accurately pull the copper wire.

[0031] 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.
[0032] refer to Figure 1-2An online diameter measuring device for an annealing and tin plating machine includes: a frame, a mounting component, an X-axis drive assembly, a diameter gauge, a wire pulling mechanism, and a fine-tuning drive assembly. The frame has a crossbeam. The mounting component is movably mounted on the crossbeam. The X-axis drive assembly drives the mounting component to move axially along the crossbeam. The diameter gauge is located outside the mounting component and is used to measure the diameter of copper wire. The wire pulling mechanism includes two retractable and movable pull wheels located outside the mounting component and correspondingly positioned above and below each other, and a Y-axis drive assembly that drives the pull wheels to pull the copper wire into the diameter gauge for measurement. The fine-tuning drive assembly is located on the mounting component and is used to move the entire wire pulling mechanism axially along the crossbeam, thereby moving the pull wheels to face the copper wire.
[0033] Understandably, the frame is the main support of the entire online diameter measuring device. It can be, for example, two spaced-apart support rods or a frame structure, but is not limited to these. The crossbeam can be a rod structure or a plate structure, but is not limited to these. The mounting component is used to centrally mount the X-axis drive assembly, diameter gauge, wire drawing mechanism, and fine-tuning drive assembly. It can be, for example, a box structure or a block structure, but is not limited to these. The X-axis drive assembly is the component used to drive the movement of the mounting component. It can be, for example, a screw drive or a rack and pinion drive, but is not limited to these. The diameter gauge can be a laser diameter gauge or a photoelectric diameter gauge, but is not limited to these. The Y-axis drive assembly is the component that drives the wire drawing wheel to move vertically along the crossbeam axis. It can be, for example, a cylinder or an electric push rod, but is not limited to these. The fine-tuning drive assembly can be a structure combining a screw drive structure or an electric push rod with sliding rails, sliders, shaft hole guides, and other limiting guides, but is not limited to these.
[0034] With this configuration, the X-axis drive assembly can move the mounting component 2 along the crossbeam 11 axially, thereby moving the pull wheel 51 to the copper wire 7 to be measured; the Y-axis drive assembly 52 can pull the pull wheel 51 back, automatically drawing the copper wire 7 into the straight diameter measuring instrument 4 for online diameter measurement; Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4-5 By finely adjusting the drive component 6, the pull wheel 51 can be driven to move precisely along the axis of the crossbeam 11, thereby accurately controlling the pull wheel 51 to move directly opposite the copper wire 7, ensuring that the pull wheel 51 can pull the copper wire 7.
[0035] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 Mounting component 2 is a box structure with an internal cavity 21. Here, the box structure can be a fully sealed or semi-open structure, so that mounting component 2 can both fix and install the components and wrap and protect them.
[0036] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2-3The mounting component 2 has a guide groove 22. The wire pulling mechanism 5 also includes two pull rods 53 that pass through the guide groove 22 and extend into the cavity 21. One end of each pull rod 53 is connected to one of the two wire pulling wheels 51, and the other end is connected to the output end of the Y-axis drive assembly 52. Here, the guide groove 22 is a long strip-shaped through groove structure, and the pull rods 53 can move axially or radially along the guide groove 22. The pull rods 53 are not limited to round rod structures, but can also be square rod structures, etc., but are not limited to these.
[0037] In some embodiments, the fine-tuning drive assembly 6 includes a base 61 movably disposed in the cavity 21 along the axial direction of the beam 11, and a fine-tuning driver 62 that drives the base 61 to move; the pull rod 53 is guided through the shaft hole of the base 61; and the Y-axis drive assembly 52 is fixedly disposed on the base 61.
[0038] Understandably, the movable design of the base 61 can utilize a shaft hole guide structure, or it can be combined with a sliding limit guide within the slide rail housing, but it is not limited to these. The fine-tuning driver 62 can drive a cylinder or a threaded screw drive structure, but it is not limited to these. Here, a threaded screw drive structure is preferred, as it can more precisely control the position of the pull rod 51. The pull rod 53 is guided through the base 61; specifically, a guide hole is opened in the base 61, and the pull rod 53 passes into the guide hole for guidance and engagement. In this way, the base 61 can drive the pull rod 53 to move axially along the crossbeam 11 without affecting the pull rod 53's wire pulling movement.
[0039] With this configuration, the base 61 can be moved by fine-tuning the drive component 6. Since the pull rod 53 and the Y-axis drive component 52 are both located on the base 61, the movement of the base 61 will drive the entire wire pulling mechanism 5 to move without affecting the wire pulling movement of the wire pulling wheel 51.
[0040] In some embodiments, a fixed plate 511 is connected to the end of each rod away from the pull wheel 51, and the output end of the Y-axis drive assembly 52 is connected to the fixed plate 511. Thus, by pushing the fixed plate 511, the Y-axis drive assembly 52 can simultaneously move both rods 53, ensuring the consistency of their movement.
[0041] In some embodiments, the X-axis drive assembly 3 includes a rack 31 mounted on the frame 1 and axially parallel to the crossbeam 11; and a motor 32 mounted within the cavity 21 and meshing its output end with the rack 31. Further, a linear slide bar 12 is provided on the crossbeam 11, and a slider 13 is provided on the mounting member 2 that engages and slides with the slide bar 12. Thus, through the engaging and sliding cooperation between the slide bar 12 and the slider 13, the mounting member 2 can slide at its upper limit on the crossbeam 11 without falling off. Then, the rotation of the motor 32 drives the gear 33 to rotate on the rack 31, thereby moving the entire mounting member 2.
[0042] In some embodiments, the online diameter measuring device for the annealing tin plating machine further includes a wire guide wheel assembly 8 mounted on the frame 1 and near one end of the diameter measuring instrument 4. Multiple wire guide wheel assemblies 8 are spaced apart along the axial direction of the crossbeam 11. Further, each wire guide wheel assembly 8 consists of two guide wheels 81 arranged vertically opposite each other. Thus, the copper wire 7 is guided sequentially through the upper and lower guide wheels 81, allowing the copper wire 7 between the two guide wheels 81 to be in a vertical position, facilitating the pulling wheel 51 to pull the copper wire 7. The arrangement of multiple wire guide wheel assemblies 8 allows for the simultaneous passage of multiple copper wires 7.
[0043] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model; however, the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and its improved concept, should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
