Detailed Implementation

[0022] Example: A cable rewinder with defect detection function, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a housing 1, a controller 2, a first electric cylinder 4, a sliding plate 5, a slide rail 6, and a limiting block 7. The controller 2 is connected to the top right side of the housing 1 by screws. A placement slot 3 is provided at the front of the housing 1. The first electric cylinder 4 is connected to the placement slot 3 by screws. The first electric cylinder 4 is electrically connected to the controller 2. The sliding plate 5 is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod of the first electric cylinder 4. Slide rails 6 are provided on both the left and right sides inside the placement slot 3. The sliding plate 5 slides on the slide rails 6. The limiting block 7 is fixedly connected to the front side of the slide rail 6.

[0023] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a wire feed wheel 8, a guide wheel 9, a wheel body 10, soft brushes 11, and soft scrapers 12. The wire feed wheel 8 is rotatably connected to the front left side of the sliding plate 5. The guide wheel 9 is located on the right side of the wire feed wheel 8. There are four guide wheels 9. The wheel body 10 is located on the right side of the guide wheel 9. There are two wheel bodies 10. Multiple soft brushes 11 are evenly fixed inside the wheel body 10. The soft brushes 11 are made of nylon and have excellent durability and chemical corrosion resistance. Multiple soft scrapers 12 are fixed inside the wheel body 10 between the multiple soft brushes 11.

[0024] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, it also includes a grooved wheel 13, a pressure wheel 14, a cable detector 15, a second electric cylinder 16, a cutter 17, and a cutting base 18. The grooved wheel 13 is rotatably connected to the lower middle part of the sliding plate 5, and the pressure wheel 14 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the grooved wheel 13. A gap is left between the pressure wheel 14 and the grooved wheel 13 for the cable to pass through. The cable detector 15 is located on the right side of the pressure wheel 14 and is electrically connected to the controller 2. The second electric cylinder 16 is connected to the front right side of the sliding plate 5 by screws. The second electric cylinder 16 is electrically connected to the controller 2. The output end of the second electric cylinder 16 is fixedly connected to the cutter 17, and the cutting base 18 is connected to the cutter 17 directly below it by screws.

[0025] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, it also includes a motor 19, a take-up drum 20, an adjusting rod 21, a support frame 22, and a door 23. The motor 19 is connected to the front right side of the housing 1 by screws. The motor 19 is electrically connected to the controller 2. The take-up drum 20 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 19. The adjusting rod 21 is slidably connected to the front side of the take-up drum 20. The support frame 22 is provided at the front of the housing 1. The adjusting rod 21 slides on the support frame 22. The door 23 is symmetrically connected to the lower front side of the housing 1. The door 23 has a storage slot inside, and the tested cable can be placed in the storage slot.

[0026] When workers need to wind up the cable, the cable first enters the equipment through the feed wheel 8 and guide wheel 9, and then passes through the cleaning and finishing module consisting of the wheel body 10, soft brush 11, and soft scraper 12. The nylon soft brush 11 can effectively remove dust and impurities from the cable surface, while the soft scraper 12 is used to remove any burrs or uneven parts that may exist on the cable surface, thereby ensuring that the cable has a clean appearance and providing a good foundation for subsequent inspection and winding.

[0027] The cable continues to pass through the clamping channel between the grooved wheel 13 and the clamping wheel 14, achieving tension adjustment and stable transmission. During this process, the cable inspector 15 performs real-time inspection of the cable, covering key quality indicators such as broken cores, poor insulation, and appearance defects, and feeds the data back to the controller 2. If an abnormality is detected, the system automatically alarms and suspends operation to ensure that defective products do not flow into subsequent processes.

[0028] Finally, the qualified cable is automatically wound up by the take-up drum 20 driven by the motor 19. The controller 2 can control the second electric cylinder 16 to drive the cutter 17 to complete the automatic cutting operation according to the set length. After winding, the adjusting rod 21 can slide on the support frame 22 to adjust the position of the take-up drum 20 or replace it with a new drum. The cut cable can be temporarily stored in the storage slot inside the box door 23 for easy classification management or subsequent quality inspection. The whole process realizes the integrated operation of cable winding and defect detection, improving production efficiency and product quality. Thus, the entire operation process is completed.
