Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of wire and cable dispensing technology, specifically a positioning device for wire and cable dispensing. Background Technology

[0002] The wires we use today are equipped with terminals for connecting electronic devices. These terminals are usually connected to the wires with glue during the wire production process. After the terminals and wires are connected with glue, the wires with terminals are transferred to a specialized facility for wire curing.

[0003] However, existing dispensing machines are susceptible to external interference during dispensing operations because the wires are not fixed by clamping and positioning devices. This can cause the wires to shift, and once the wire position changes, the dispensing head cannot accurately apply the glue to the designated position for the connection between the wire and the terminal, resulting in dispensing position deviation and affecting the subsequent connection quality between the terminal and the wire. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this application provides a positioning device for dispensing adhesive on wires and cables. This device has advantages such as clamping and positioning, and solves the problem that in existing dispensing machines, the wires are easily affected by external factors during dispensing operations because they are not fixed by the clamping and positioning device. This can cause the wires to shift, and once the wire position changes, the dispensing head cannot accurately apply the adhesive to the specified position for the connection between the wire and the terminal, resulting in dispensing position deviation and affecting the subsequent connection quality between the terminal and the wire.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: a positioning device for dispensing adhesive into wires and cables, comprising a base support frame, a linear module fixedly connected to the upper end of the base, a rotating frame rotatably connected inside the support frame, a support seat fixedly connected to one side of the upper end of the rotating frame, a plurality of positioning grooves arranged in a linear array inside the support seat, a cover plate rotatably connected to one side of the inside of the rotating frame, a plurality of pressing blocks arranged in a linear array fixedly connected to the bottom end of the cover plate, a support bar fixedly connected to the end of the rotating frame away from the support seat, and a plurality of grippers arranged in a linear array fixedly connected to the upper end of the support bar.

[0006] The above solution utilizes multiple positioning slots arranged in a linear array within the support base. These slots can simultaneously position the terminals of multiple wires and cables, with each slot providing an independent positioning space for a single wire or cable terminal. This effectively prevents mutual interference between wires and cables, ensuring that each wire or cable terminal is placed in its predetermined position. This provides a positional reference for subsequent dispensing operations. The positioning slots cooperate with the pressure block at the bottom of the cover plate. When the cover plate is closed, the pressure block accurately presses into the positioning slot, applying pressure to the wire or cable terminal within the slot. This further fixes the position of the wire or cable, preventing displacement during dispensing and improving the positioning accuracy of the wire or cable. This ensures the accuracy of the dispensing position. Multiple clamps arranged in a linear array are fixedly connected to the upper end of the support bar. These clamps provide auxiliary fixation for the wire or cable, working together with the pressure block to form a dual fixing mechanism. This enhances the device's fixation effect on the wire or cable, ensuring that the wire or cable and its terminal remain stable during dispensing.

[0007] Furthermore, a motor is fixedly connected to one side of the support frame, and the output end of the motor passes through the support frame and is fixedly connected to the rotating frame via a coupling.

[0008] The above solution enables the motor to drive the rotating frame, thus automating the adjustment of the wire and cable angle. During the dispensing process, there is no need for manual adjustment of the wire and cable angle. Operators can quickly and accurately change the position of the wire and cable by controlling the motor, thereby improving the dispensing quality.

[0009] Furthermore, the bottom end of the support frame is provided with four mounting holes arranged in a rectangular array.

[0010] The above scheme allows the four mounting holes arranged in a rectangular array to distribute the force more evenly during installation. The four mounting holes can disperse the weight and force borne by the support frame, preventing deformation or damage to the support frame due to excessive local stress, and ensuring the stability of the device during operation.

[0011] Furthermore, both sides of the movable end of the support frame are fixedly connected to support arms, and the upper ends of the two support arms are fixedly connected to mounting plates. The mounting plates have four threaded holes arranged in a rectangular array inside.

[0012] The above solution involves creating four threaded holes arranged in a rectangular array inside the mounting plate. This multi-point fixing method allows the support frame to achieve a more secure connection with the linear module during installation.

[0013] Furthermore, each of the four mounting holes is equipped with a fixing bolt that slides inside, and the bottom end of each of the four fixing bolts passes through the mounting hole and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole.

[0014] With the above solution, the mounting holes at the bottom of the support frame are connected to the threaded holes on the mounting plate by fixing bolts, so that the support frame can be stably installed on the mounting plate and is not easy to loosen during the operation of the device, thus ensuring the stability and accuracy of the wire and cable dispensing operation.

[0015] Furthermore, a plurality of magnets arranged in a linear array are fixedly connected to the upper end of the positioning groove, and the bottom end of the cover plate is in contact with the plurality of magnets.

[0016] Through the above scheme, multiple magnets arranged in a linear array can generate sufficient and uniform magnetic attraction force. When the cover is closed, it can be attracted to the upper end of the positioning groove. The attraction and fixation of the cover by the magnets can keep the cover stable when facing these external forces, and it will not easily loosen or shift. It always provides reliable coverage and protection for the wires and cables in the positioning groove, and ensures the smooth progress of the dispensing operation.

[0017] Furthermore, a handle is fixedly connected to the upper end of the cover plate.

[0018] With the above solution, in the dispensing operation, it is necessary to frequently open and close the cover plate to place or remove wires and cables. The handle provides the operator with a convenient point of leverage. Simply hold the handle to easily lift or lower the cover plate.

[0019] Furthermore, the plurality of pressure blocks are slidably disposed inside the positioning groove, and the plurality of grippers are corresponding to the positioning groove.

[0020] With the above scheme, the pressure block is slidably set in the positioning groove, which can apply uniform pressure to the terminal and fix it in the positioning groove. The gripper is used to clamp the wire and cable, ensuring the accuracy of the dispensing position.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] This positioning device for dispensing adhesive to wires and cables features multiple positioning slots arranged in a linear array inside a support base. These slots can simultaneously position the terminals of multiple wires and cables, with each slot providing an independent positioning space for a single wire or cable terminal. This effectively prevents mutual interference between wires and cables, ensuring that each wire or cable terminal is placed in a predetermined position, providing a positional reference for subsequent dispensing operations. The positioning slots cooperate with a pressure block at the bottom of a cover plate. When the cover plate is closed, the pressure block accurately presses into the positioning slot, applying pressure to the wire or cable terminal within the slot to further fix its position and prevent displacement during dispensing. This improves the positioning accuracy of the wires and cables and ensures the precision of the dispensing position. Multiple clamps arranged in a linear array are fixedly connected to the upper end of the support bar. These clamps provide auxiliary fixation for the wires and cables, working together with the pressure block to form a dual fixing mechanism. This enhances the device's fixing effect on the wires and cables, ensuring that the wires, cables, and terminals remain stable during dispensing. Attached Figure Description

[0032] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5A motor 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the support frame 3. The output end of the motor 13 passes through the support frame 3 and is fixedly connected to the rotating frame 4 via a coupling. The motor 13 drives the rotating frame 4 to rotate, realizing the automated adjustment of the angle of the wires and cables. During the dispensing process, there is no need for manual adjustment of the angle of the wires and cables. The operator only needs to control the operation of the motor 13 to quickly and accurately change the position of the wires and cables, improving the dispensing quality. The bottom end of the support frame 3 is provided with four mounting holes 14 arranged in a rectangular array. The four mounting holes 14 can make the force on the support frame 3 more even during installation.

Fixing bolts 18 are slidably installed inside the four mounting holes 14. The bottom ends of the four fixing bolts 18 pass through the mounting holes 14 and are threadedly connected to the threaded holes 17. The mounting holes 14 at the bottom of the support frame 3 are connected to the threaded holes 17 on the mounting plate 16 by fixing bolts 18, so that the support frame 3 can be stably installed on the mounting plate 16 and is not easy to loosen during the operation of the device, thus ensuring the stability and accuracy of the wire and cable dispensing operation.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 Multiple magnets 7 arranged in a linear array are fixedly connected to the upper end of the positioning groove 6. The bottom end of the cover plate 8 is in contact with the multiple magnets 7. The multiple linear array magnets 7 can generate sufficient and uniform magnetic attraction force.

The attraction and fixation of the cover plate 8 by the magnets 7 can keep the cover plate 8 stable when facing these external forces, and it will not easily loosen or shift. It always provides reliable coverage and protection for the wires and cables in the positioning groove 6, and ensures the smooth progress of the dispensing operation. A handle 1 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the cover plate 8. In the dispensing operation, the cover plate 8 needs to be opened and closed frequently to place or remove wires and cables. The handle 10 provides a convenient point of leverage for the operator. By simply holding the handle 10, the cover plate 8 can be easily lifted or lowered. Multiple pressure blocks 9 are slidably set inside the positioning groove 6, and multiple grippers 12 are corresponding to the positioning groove 6. The pressure blocks 9 are slidably set inside the positioning groove 6, which can apply uniform pressure to the terminals and fix them in the positioning groove 6. The grippers 12 are used to clamp the wires and cables, ensuring the accuracy of the dispensing position.

[0034] In this embodiment, the positioning device for dispensing wires and cables utilizes a support base 5 with multiple positioning slots 6 arranged in a linear array. These slots 6 can simultaneously position the terminals of multiple wires and cables, and each slot 6 provides an independent positioning space for a single wire and cable terminal, effectively preventing mutual interference between wires and cables and ensuring that each wire and cable terminal is placed in a predetermined position. This provides a positional reference for subsequent dispensing operations. The positioning slots 6 cooperate with the pressure block 9 at the bottom of the cover plate 8. When the cover plate 8 is closed, the pressure block 9 can accurately press into the positioning slot 6, applying pressure to the wire and cable terminals in the positioning slot 6 to further fix the position of the wires and cables and prevent displacement during dispensing. This improves the positioning accuracy of the wires and cables and ensures the accuracy of the dispensing position. The upper end of the support bar 11 is fixedly connected to multiple clamps 12 arranged in a linear array. The clamps 12 can assist in fixing the wires and cables, working together with the pressure block 9 to form a dual fixing mechanism, enhancing the device's fixing effect on the wires and cables and keeping the wires and cables and terminals stable during dispensing.

[0035] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:

[0036] First, the support frame 3 is installed on the mounting plate 16 using fixing bolts 18 through the four rectangular array mounting holes 14 at the bottom of the support frame 3. The bottom end of the fixing bolts 18 passes through the mounting holes 14 and is threaded into the four rectangular array threaded holes 17 inside the mounting plate 16, so that the support frame 3 is stably fixed on the mounting plate 16, ensuring that the entire device is firmly installed and preventing loosening during operation. The operator holds the handle 10 fixedly connected to the upper end of the cover plate 8 and applies an upward pulling force to overcome the multiple linear array magnets 7 at the upper end of the positioning groove 6 against the cover plate. The suction force of plate 8 opens the cover plate 8 to allow the placement of wires and cables. The terminals of multiple wires and cables are then placed into the multiple positioning slots 6 arranged in a linear array inside the support base 5. Since each positioning slot 6 provides an independent positioning space for a single wire and cable terminal, mutual interference between wires and cables is effectively avoided, ensuring that each wire and cable terminal is placed in the predetermined position, providing a positional reference for subsequent dispensing operations. Multiple clamping claws 12 arranged in a linear array and fixedly connected to the upper end of the support bar 11 can clamp and fix the wires and cables. The operator holds the handle. 10. Place the cover plate 8 downwards onto the upper end of the positioning groove 6. During the closing process, the bottom end of the cover plate 8 contacts the multiple magnets 7 at the upper end of the positioning groove 6. The magnets 7 generate sufficient and uniform magnetic attraction force, adsorbing the cover plate 8 onto the upper end of the positioning groove 6, thus stabilizing the cover plate 8. At the same time, the pressure block 9 at the bottom end of the cover plate 8 is accurately pressed into the positioning groove 6, applying pressure to the terminals of the wires and cables in the positioning groove 6, further fixing the position of the wires and cables and preventing them from shifting during the dispensing process. Then, start the motor 13 fixedly connected to one side of the support frame 3. The output end of the motor 13 is connected via a coupling. The device drives the rotating frame 4 to rotate inside the support frame 3, which in turn causes the support base 5, positioning groove 6, wires and cables at the upper end of the rotating frame 4 to rotate together, realizing the automatic adjustment of the wire and cable angle and changing the position of the wires and cables to meet the dispensing angle requirements. After the wires and cables are positioned and fixed, the dispensing equipment is started to dispense glue to the wire and cable terminals fixed in the positioning groove 6. Due to the combined action of the positioning groove 6, pressure block 9 and clamp 12, the stability of the wires and cables and terminals during the dispensing process is ensured, the accuracy of the dispensing position is ensured, and the dispensing quality is improved.
