Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wire feeding, and in particular to an adjustable horizontal wire feeding frame. Background Technology

[0002] Cables are typically rope-like structures made of several or groups of conductors (at least two conductors per group) twisted together. Each group of conductors is insulated from each other and is often twisted around a central core. The entire cable is covered with a highly insulating outer layer. They are often installed in the air, underground, or underwater for telecommunications or power transmission. Cables require horizontal cable-laying frames for use. However, most existing horizontal cable-laying frames have fixed structures and poor flexibility. When encountering large-diameter cable-laying rollers, the bottom of the cable-laying frame may come into contact with the frame, preventing the cable from rotating and making it impossible to adjust for different lengths of cable-laying rollers. This greatly reduces the versatility of the horizontal cable-laying frame. Furthermore, cable-laying frames are generally operated manually by line workers, but cables are very heavy, making operation time-consuming and labor-intensive, reducing work efficiency, and consequently affecting the overall ease of use of the cable-laying frame. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the problems that the wire feeding frame is mostly fixed in structure, lacks flexibility, cannot be adjusted according to wire feeding rollers of different diameters and lengths, and is generally operated manually by line workers, thus reducing work efficiency.

Then, by adjusting the component, the height of the lifting frame can be adjusted and has high stability, avoiding accidental slippage or descent. Then, by clamping the component, the mounting frame can be raised and lowered, which can be easily adjusted according to the needs of wire feeding. Then, the third drive motor is started to drive the rotation of the active clamping plate, which facilitates the automatic wire feeding operation, thereby greatly improving the usability of the entire wire feeding frame.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-3This utility model provides an embodiment: an adjustable horizontal wire feeding rack, including a fixed base plate 1, self-locking casters 2, first limiting grooves 3, a moving component 4, a moving plate 5, second limiting grooves 6, an adjusting component 7, and a clamping component 8. The fixed base plate 1 is made of metal steel, which has sufficient strength and stability to ensure that the weight of the base is sufficient to increase the overall stability and prevent displacement or tipping during wire feeding. Self-locking casters 2 are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the fixed base plate 1, which facilitates the free rotation and movement of the wire feeding rack in any direction and can be fixed in the use position when needed. First limiting grooves 3 are opened on the left and right sides of the front and rear ends of the top of the fixed base plate 1. The moving component 4 is arranged inside the four sets of first limiting grooves 3. The moving component 4 includes a first drive motor 401, a first threaded screw 402, a limiting slide bar 403, a first threaded slider 404, and a limiting slider 405. The first drive motor 401 is installed on the... At the left rear end of the fixed base plate 1, the right output end of the first drive motor 401 is connected to a first threaded rod 402 located inside the first limiting groove 3 at the rear end. The left and right ends of the outer wall of the first threaded rod 402 are provided with threads in opposite directions. The limiting rod 403 is installed inside the first limiting groove 3 at the front end. The left and right ends of the outer wall of the first threaded rod 402 are threadedly connected to first threaded sliders 404 located inside the first limiting groove 3. The left and right ends of the outer wall of the limiting rod 403 are slidably connected to limiting sliders 405 located inside the first limiting groove 3. The left end first threaded slider 404 and limiting slider 405 and the right end first threaded slider 404 and limiting slider 405 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom of the two sets of moving plates 5. By starting the first drive motor 401 to drive the rotation of the first threaded rod 402, the two sets of first threaded sliders 404 move inward or outward at the same time, which is convenient for adjusting the position of the two sets of moving plates 5 according to the length of the feeding roller, and has high applicability.

[0025] Please see Figure 4-5In this embodiment, movable plates 5 are installed on both the left and right sides of the upper end of the movable component 4. A second limiting groove 6 is provided on the upper surface of each of the two movable plates 5. An adjusting component 7 is provided inside the upper end of each of the two second limiting grooves 6. The adjusting component 7 includes a second drive motor 701, a second threaded screw 702, a second threaded slider 703, a connecting frame 704, a connecting plate 705, and a lifting frame 706. The second drive motor 701 is installed at the rear end of the movable plate 5. The front output end of the second drive motor 701 is connected to the second threaded screw located inside the second limiting groove 6. The second threaded screw 702 has threads in opposite directions at both ends of its outer side wall. Both ends of the outer side wall of the second threaded screw 702 are threadedly connected to second threaded sliders 703. Connecting frames 704 are mounted on the top of the two sets of second threaded sliders 703. Connecting plates 705 are connected to the upper interior of both sets of connecting frames 704 via rotating shafts. Lifting frames 706 are jointly mounted on the upper ends of both sets of connecting plates 705 via rotating shafts. By starting the second drive motor 701, the second threaded screw 702 is rotated, causing the two sets of second threaded sliders 703 to move simultaneously. The inward or outward movement allows for height adjustment of the lifting frame 706, providing high stability and preventing accidental slippage or descent. A clamping assembly 8 is mounted on the upper end of both sets of adjusting components 7. The clamping assembly 8 includes a hydraulic cylinder 801, a hydraulic push rod 802, a mounting bracket 803, a third drive motor 804, an active clamping plate 805, and a driven clamp 806. Two sets of hydraulic cylinders 801 are configured, each mounted on the top of one of the two sets of adjusting components 7. The top output ends of both sets of hydraulic cylinders 801 are connected to hydraulic push rods 802. The top of each of the two devices is equipped with a mounting bracket 803, which can be raised and lowered to adjust the height according to the needs of wire feeding. A third drive motor 804 is installed on the left side of the left mounting bracket 803. The right output end of the third drive motor 804 is connected to an active clamping plate 805 through the mounting bracket 803 via a rotating shaft. A driven clamp 806 is connected through the inside of the right mounting bracket 803. After the wire feeding roller is stably clamped, the third drive motor 804 is started to drive the active clamping plate 805 to rotate, thereby facilitating the automatic wire feeding operation.

[0026] When the wire feeding frame is in operation, the base plate 1 is made of metal steel, which has sufficient strength and stability to ensure that the weight of the base is sufficient to increase the overall stability and prevent displacement or tipping during the wire feeding process. The four corners of the bottom of the base plate 1 are equipped with self-locking casters 2, which make it easy for the wire feeding frame to rotate and move freely in any direction and to fix it in the use position when needed. Then, the first drive motor 401 is started through the moving component 4 to drive the rotation of the first threaded screw 402, so that the two sets of first threaded sliders 404 move inward or outward at the same time. This makes it easy to adjust the position of the two sets of moving plates 5 according to the length of the wire feeding roller, and has high applicability.

[0027] Next, by adjusting component 7, the second drive motor 701 is started to drive the rotation of the second threaded screw 702, causing the two sets of second threaded sliders 703 to move inward or outward simultaneously, which can adjust the height of the lifting frame 706 and has high stability, avoiding accidental slippage or descent.

[0028] Then, through the clamping assembly 8, the top output ends of the two sets of hydraulic cylinders 801 are connected to hydraulic push rods 802, and the top of the two sets of hydraulic push rods 802 are equipped with mounting brackets 803, which can be raised and lowered to facilitate height adjustment according to the needs of wire feeding. The third drive motor 804 is started to drive the rotation of the active clamping plate 805, thereby facilitating the automatic wire feeding operation.

[0029] Through the above steps, a self-locking universal wheel 2 is installed, which allows the wire feeding frame to rotate and move freely in any direction and be fixed when needed. Then, the first drive motor 401 is started to drive the first threaded screw 402 to rotate, causing the two sets of first threaded sliders 404 to move inward or outward simultaneously. This facilitates the adjustment of the position of the two sets of moving plates 5 according to the length of the wire feeding roller. Next, the second drive motor 701 is started to drive the second threaded screw 702 to rotate, causing the two sets of second threaded sliders 703 to move inward or outward simultaneously. This allows for the adjustment of the height of the lifting frame 706 and provides high stability. The hydraulic cylinder 801 can then be used to raise and lower the mounting frame 803, allowing for height adjustment according to the wire feeding needs. Finally, the third drive motor 804 is started to drive the rotation of the active clamping plate 805, facilitating automatic wire feeding operations and significantly improving the usability of the entire wire feeding frame.

[0030] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
