Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of wire harness hanging technology, and more specifically, to a hanging device for plug assembly. Background Technology

[0002] A plug is a common electrical connection component, typically used to connect electrical equipment to a power source or other electrical system.

[0003] Chinese patent CN204992076U discloses an Indonesian-style tool plug, comprising an inner frame and a outer shell. The inner frame houses a neutral and a live wire prong, extending from the top of the outer shell. The lower end of the outer shell has a braided tail and connectors. An inner frame hook is located at the rear end of the inner frame between the neutral and live wire prongs. This plug, designed to meet the technical requirements and shape characteristics of Indonesian-style tool plugs, utilizes a reasonable structural improvement, particularly the design of the inner frame hook and through-hole, to enhance the stability of the structure between the inner frame and the outer shell, thus adapting to the high-power requirements of Indonesian-style tool plugs. Furthermore, the corrugated bending area not only allows for flexible bending of the power cord according to usage but also provides an anti-slip effect, making it more convenient to use.

[0004] In practical applications, the aforementioned plug needs to be assembled with a wire harness. The specific operation process is as follows: First, the wire harness is stripped and shaped at one end. Then, a terminal crimping machine is used to connect the wire harness to the neutral and live wire pins of the plug. After the connection is completed, the wire harness needs to be manually hung onto the hooks on the inner frame of the plug. However, the speed of manual operation is relatively limited, especially in large-scale production. The speed of manual wire hanging is difficult to meet the production cycle requirements, becoming a bottleneck in the production process and reducing overall production efficiency. As working time increases, the speed of manual wire hanging will gradually decrease, further affecting production efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a wire hanging device for plug assembly, which can solve the technical problem that the manual wire hanging speed is difficult to meet the production cycle during the assembly of plugs with wire harnesses, becoming a bottleneck in the production process and reducing the overall production efficiency.

[0006] This application provides a cable hanging device for plug assembly, including a support frame, a horizontal displacement adjustment component on the support frame, a vertical displacement adjustment component on the horizontal displacement adjustment component, and a cable clamping component on the vertical displacement adjustment component.

[0007] Furthermore, the support frame includes a support plate, a telescopic adjustment column, and a horizontal frame. One end of the telescopic adjustment column is fixed to the top of the support plate, and the other end of the telescopic adjustment column is fixedly connected to the horizontal frame. The horizontal displacement adjustment assembly is disposed on the horizontal frame.

[0008] Furthermore, the horizontal displacement adjustment assembly includes a horizontal adjustment cylinder and a movable block. The movable block is movably mounted on the horizontal frame, and the horizontal adjustment cylinder is fixedly mounted on the horizontal frame.

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, this application provides a wire hanging device for plug assembly, including a support frame 1, a horizontal displacement adjustment component 2 on the support frame 1, a vertical displacement adjustment component 3 on the horizontal displacement adjustment component 2, and a wire clamping component 4 on the vertical displacement adjustment component 3. The horizontal displacement adjustment component 2 drives the vertical displacement adjustment component 3 to move horizontally, and the vertical displacement adjustment component 3 drives the wire clamping component 4 to move vertically. The wire clamping component 4 clamps the wire harness and, with the cooperation of the horizontal displacement adjustment component 2 and the vertical displacement adjustment component 3, hangs the wire harness on the inner frame hook of the plug inner frame. After the operator connects the wire harness to the plug on the terminal frame riveting machine, the horizontal displacement adjustment component 2 and the vertical displacement adjustment component 3 can be used to realize the movement of the wire clamping component 4 in the horizontal and vertical directions, thereby hanging the wire harness on the inner frame hook of the plug inner frame, realizing semi-automatic wire hanging. Compared with purely manual wire hanging, it reduces the labor intensity of the operator, significantly improves the wire hanging speed, and thus speeds up the overall production progress of plug assembly and improves production efficiency.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support frame 1 includes a support plate 11, a telescopic adjustment column 12, and a horizontal frame 13. One end of the telescopic adjustment column 12 is fixed to the top of the support plate 11, and the other end of the telescopic adjustment column 12 is fixedly connected to the horizontal frame 13. The horizontal displacement adjustment component 2 is set on the horizontal frame 13. By setting the telescopic adjustment column 12, the height of the horizontal frame 13 can be flexibly adjusted according to actual production needs, so that the hanging device can adapt to work platforms of different heights and the height of operators, effectively improving the applicability and flexibility of the device. In this embodiment, the telescopic adjustment column 12 is a hydraulic telescopic rod, which is the prior art and will not be described in detail here. The support plate 11 is provided with fixing holes, and the support plate 11 can be fixed by anchor bolts.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the horizontal displacement adjustment assembly 2 includes a horizontal adjustment cylinder 21 and a movable block 22. The movable block 22 is movably mounted on the horizontal frame 13, and the horizontal adjustment cylinder 21 is fixedly mounted on the horizontal frame 13. The telescopic rod of the horizontal adjustment cylinder 21 is fixedly connected to the movable block 22. The movable block 22 is driven to move on the horizontal frame 13 by the horizontal adjustment cylinder 21. The vertical displacement adjustment assembly 3 is mounted on the movable block 22. The vertical displacement adjustment assembly 3 is driven by the movable block 22 to achieve horizontal movement.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the vertical displacement adjustment assembly 3 includes a vertical adjustment cylinder 31, a guide rod 32, and a movable seat 33. The vertical adjustment cylinder 31 is fixedly mounted on the movable block 22. One end of the guide rod 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable block 22. The movable seat 33 is movably mounted on the guide rod 32. The telescopic rod of the vertical adjustment cylinder 31 is fixedly connected to the movable seat 33. The guide rod 32 provides a stable guide for the vertical movement of the movable seat 33. The vertical adjustment cylinder 31 drives the movable seat 33 to move up and down along the guide rod 32. The wire clamping assembly 4 is mounted on the movable seat 33, thereby realizing the up and down movement of the wire clamping assembly 4. When the vertical adjustment cylinder 31 fails, the telescopic adjustment column 12 can replace the vertical adjustment cylinder 31 and continue to realize the up and down movement of the wire clamping assembly 4. Specifically, the telescopic adjustment column 12 drives the horizontal frame 13 to move up and down, thereby driving the horizontal displacement adjustment assembly 2, the vertical displacement adjustment assembly 3, and the wire clamping assembly 4 to move up and down.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are two guide rods 32, which are symmetrically arranged. The vertical adjustment cylinder 31 is located between the two guide rods 32. The two symmetrically arranged guide rods 32 can provide uniform guidance for the movable seat 33, making the supporting force on the movable seat 33 more balanced during vertical movement. Compared with a single guide rod 32, it can effectively prevent the movable seat 33 from tilting, shaking or jamming, ensuring that the movable seat 33 and the wire clamping assembly 4 connected to it can move smoothly and steadily in the vertical direction, improving the stability and accuracy of the wire hanging operation. Placing the vertical adjustment cylinder 31 between the two guide rods 32 makes full use of the space between the guide rods 32, making the structure of the entire vertical displacement adjustment assembly 3 more compact, which is convenient for the installation and layout of equipment in limited production space, and improves the space utilization of the production site.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the wire clamping assembly 4 includes a clamping cylinder 41 and two anti-slip sleeves 42. The clamping cylinder 41 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the movable seat 33. The two anti-slip sleeves 42 are respectively fixedly mounted on the two clamping jaws of the clamping cylinder 41. The clamping and releasing operation of the wire harness can be completed conveniently and quickly through the opening and closing action of the two clamping jaws of the clamping cylinder 41. The presence of the anti-slip sleeves 42 greatly increases the friction between the clamping jaws and the wire harness, making the clamping jaws more secure when clamping the wire harness. Especially for some wire harnesses with smooth surfaces or soft textures, reliable clamping can be achieved. At the same time, the anti-slip sleeves 42 can also play a buffering and protective role, avoiding direct contact between the clamping jaws and the wire harness and causing damage such as scratches or indentations, thus ensuring the integrity and performance of the wire harness.

[0034] like Figure 1-3As shown, the telescopic adjustment column 12 is provided with a wire harness bracket 5. The wire harness bracket 5 includes a U-shaped support part 51 and a connecting part 52. One end of the connecting part 52 is connected to the U-shaped support part 51, and the other end of the connecting part 52 is connected to the telescopic adjustment column 12. The U-shaped support part 51 provides support for the wire harness. The U-shaped groove of the U-shaped support part 51 makes way for the gripper cylinder 41, so that the gripper cylinder 41 can grip the wire harness.

[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, a locking component 6 is provided at the end of the connecting part 52 away from the U-shaped support part 51. The locking component 6 includes a locking clamp 61 and a locking bolt 62. The locking clamp 61 is fixed to the connecting part 52 and is sleeved on the telescopic adjustment column 12. The locking clamp 61 can be locked onto the telescopic adjustment column 12 by the locking bolt 62. According to the actual work needs, the operator can first loosen the locking bolt 62 so that the locking clamp 61 is no longer tightly fixed to the telescopic adjustment column 12. At this time, the wire harness bracket 5 can be easily moved up and down along the telescopic adjustment column 12 to adjust it to a suitable height position to facilitate the placement and use of the wire harness and meet the operational requirements of different plug assembly scenarios. After the height adjustment is completed, simply tighten the locking bolt 62 so that the locking clamp 61 tightly hugs the telescopic adjustment column 12 to fix the wire harness bracket 5 firmly in the selected position, ensuring that the wire harness bracket 5 will not move or shake during the wire hanging operation.

[0036] Working principle:

[0037] In use, the hanging device is fixed in a suitable position with anchor bolts. Then, the horizontal frame 13 is adjusted to a suitable position using the telescopic adjustment column 12, and the wire harness bracket 5 is fixed at a suitable height. After the operator inserts the wire harness into the plug on the terminal frame riveting machine, the wire harness is connected to the plug under the action of the terminal frame riveting machine. At this time, the vertical displacement adjustment component 3 drives the wire clamping component 4 to move down, and the clamping cylinder 41 of the wire clamping component 4 clamps the wire harness (position 2-3cm away from the wire harness connection end). Then, the vertical displacement adjustment component 3 drives the wire clamping component 4 to move up 1cm, and the horizontal displacement adjustment component 2 drives the vertical displacement adjustment component 3 to move closer to the plug. After reaching a suitable position, the vertical displacement adjustment component 3 drives the wire clamping component 4 to move down, and the clamping cylinder 41 of the wire clamping component 4 releases the clamp on the wire harness, so that the wire harness can be hung on the inner frame hook of the plug inner frame.

[0038] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
