[0024] In view of the technical problems described in the background art, such as Figure 1-8As shown, a semi-automatic rope knotting machine is provided, comprising: a housing 1, wherein the housing 1 has an installation space and a motor is installed inside the housing 1; a guide block 2 is provided on the outer wall of the housing 1 corresponding to the output end of the motor, and a guide surface 3 is provided on the circumferential surface of the guide block 2; a beak component 4, which is connected to the output end of the motor; the beak component 4 includes a shaft 5 connected to the output end of the motor, a first clamping part 6 disposed on the end of the shaft 5, and a second clamping part 7 hinged to the first clamping part 6; the second clamping part 7 is connected to the motor by a spring. The shaft 5 is connected, and the second clamping part 7 has a rolling element 8 at one end away from the first clamping part 6. The rolling element 8 contacts the guide surface 3. The motor drives the beak component 4 to rotate, and the rolling element 8 is guided by the guide surface 3. The first clamping part 6 opens to clamp the rope and closes to clamp the rope relative to the second clamping part 7. A cutting device 9 is installed on the housing 1 and is used to cut the rope after clamping it on the beak component 4. A control system is used to output and receive signals.

[0025] This semi-automatic rope knotting machine mainly consists of a housing 1, a beak component 4, a cutting device 9, and a control system. The housing 1 serves as the support and mounting foundation for the entire machine, providing installation space and protection for the internal motor and other components. The beak component 4 is the core component for performing the rope knotting operation; it is connected to the motor output and, driven by the motor, clamps and tightens the rope. The cutting device 9, mounted on the housing 1, cuts the rope after it has been clamped by the beak component 4. The control system is responsible for outputting and receiving signals, coordinating the orderly operation of each component, and realizing the semi-automatic rope knotting and cutting process.

[0026] Specifically, the housing 1 is made of robust metal materials (such as stainless steel or aluminum alloy) to ensure sufficient strength and stability to withstand various forces generated during equipment operation. The interior of housing 1 forms an independent installation space, where the motor is fixedly installed in a suitable position, with its output end connected to the beak component 4. On the outer wall of housing 1 corresponding to the motor output end, a guide block 2 is bolted on. The guide block 2 is a high-precision machined component with a carefully designed guide surface 3 on its circumference. The shape and size of the guide surface 3 are precisely calculated to ensure accurate and stable guidance for the rolling elements 8 on the beak component 4.

[0027] The beak component 4 includes a shaft 5, a first clamping part 6, a second clamping part 7, a spring, and a rolling element 8, which is preferably a rolling bearing. Shaft 5: One end of the shaft 5 is tightly connected to the output end of the motor via a coupling to ensure that the motor can stably drive the beak component 4 to rotate.

[0028] First clamping part 6 and second clamping part 7: The first clamping part 6 is fixedly installed at the end of the shaft 5. The second clamping part 7 is hinged to the first clamping part 6 via a hinge shaft, allowing the second clamping part 7 to rotate flexibly relative to the first clamping part 6. The first clamping part 6 and the second clamping part 7 form a beak shape. The second clamping part 7 is connected to the shaft 5 via a spring. The spring is a compression spring with moderate elasticity and long fatigue life. In its natural state, the spring pulls the second clamping part 7 towards the shaft 5, so that the first clamping part 6 and the second clamping part 7 are in a closed state.

[0029] Rolling element 8: A rolling bearing is installed at the end of the second clamping part 7 away from the first clamping part 6 as a rolling element 8. The rolling bearing is installed on the second clamping part 7 by interference fit, ensuring that it is firmly installed and rotates flexibly. When the motor drives the beak component 4 to rotate, the rolling bearing contacts the guide surface 3 on the guide block 2 and rolls under the action of the guide surface 3, thereby guiding the second clamping part 7 to open and close relative to the first clamping part 6. The specific working process is as follows: when the rolling bearing rolls along a specific trajectory of the guide surface 3, it applies a force to the second clamping part 7, overcoming the elastic force of the spring, causing the second clamping part 7 to rotate around the hinge axis. The second clamping part 7 opens relative to the first clamping part 6, clamping the rope that passes through the first clamping part 6 and the second clamping part 7; as the beak component 4 continues to rotate, the rolling bearing reaches another position of the guide surface 3, the elastic force of the spring causes the second clamping part 7 to return to its original position, and the first clamping part 6 closes relative to the second clamping part 7, thereby clamping the rope.

[0030] Under the control system, the cutting device is used to cut the clamped rope.

[0031] The control system uses a programmable logic controller (PLC) as the core control unit. PLCs offer advantages such as flexible programming, high reliability, and strong anti-interference capabilities. By writing corresponding control programs, the PLC can output signals to control the actions of the motor, the first cylinder 10, and the second cylinder 11 according to preset logic and timing, ensuring the stable and efficient operation of the entire semi-automatic rope knotting machine. Alternatively, the control system can be implemented using a corresponding control board designed based on the motion process.

[0032] The specific usage process is as follows: start the equipment, initialize the control system, the motor starts to rotate at low speed, driving the beak component 4 to rotate slowly, while the rolling bearing rolls on the guide surface 3, so that the first clamping part 6 and the second clamping part 7 are in the open state.

[0033] The operator places one end of the rope between the first clamping part 6 and the second clamping part 7 of the beak component 4, and ensures that one end of the rope is placed in the slot 15 of the bracket 13.

[0034] As the motor continues to rotate, the rolling bearing reaches a specific position on the guide surface 3. Under the action of the spring, the first clamping part 6 closes relative to the second clamping part 7, clamping the rope.

[0035] After the control system detects that the rope has been clamped, it sends a signal to control the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 11 to operate and cut the rope according to the working process of the cutting device 9.

[0036] After completing one knotting and cutting operation, the motor continues to rotate, and the beak component 4 returns to its initial position, ready for the next operation. The entire process is repeated cyclically, achieving semi-automatic rope knotting and cutting.

[0037] The specific usage process is as follows: Start the equipment and initialize the control system. Manually place the rope on the first clamping part 6 and the second clamping part 7. The drive motor rotates the beak component 4, while the rolling bearing rolls on the guide surface 3. After the rope wraps around the first clamping part 6 and the second clamping part 7 once, the rolling bearing reaches a specific position on the guide surface 3, and the first clamping part 6 and the second clamping part 7 open, placing the rope between them. The motor continues to rotate, and the rolling bearing reaches another specific position on the guide surface 3. Under the action of the spring, the first clamping part 6 closes relative to the second clamping part 7, clamping the rope. The cutting device 9 then cuts the rope. After completing one knotting and cutting operation, the entire process is repeated, achieving semi-automatic rope knotting and cutting.

[0038] In the above technical solution, a unique structural design enables semi-automatic operation of the rope knotting process. The motor drives the beak component 4 to rotate, and with the precise guidance of the guide surface 3 on the guide block 2, the first clamping part 6 and the second clamping part 7 can efficiently complete the opening and closing clamping actions of the rope, greatly improving the efficiency of rope knotting. The overall structure is simple, easy to install and produce, and achieves semi-automatic rope knotting operation at a relatively low cost.

[0039] like Figure 7 As shown, the cutting device 9 includes a first cylinder 10 mounted on the housing 1, a second cylinder 11 mounted on the telescopic end of the first cylinder 10, and scissors 12 mounted on the second cylinder 11; the first cylinder 10 drives the second cylinder 11 and the scissors 12 to move longitudinally; the second cylinder 11 drives the scissors 12 to cut the rope.

[0040] The cutting device 9 includes a first cylinder 10, a second cylinder 11, and scissors 12. The first cylinder 10 is bolted to a suitable position on the outside of the housing 1, with its extension end facing upwards. The second cylinder 11 is bolted to the extension end of the first cylinder 10, and the scissors 12 are fixedly mounted to the extension end of the second cylinder 11. Both the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 11 are standard pneumatic cylinders, offering advantages such as rapid action, sensitive response, and stable output force.

[0041] Cutting process: After the beak component 4 completes the clamping action of the rope, the control system sends a signal, and the first cylinder 10 starts working, its telescopic end extends upward, driving the second cylinder 11 and the scissors 12 to move longitudinally together, so that the scissors 12 reaches the predetermined cutting position. Then, the telescopic end of the second cylinder 11 extends, driving the scissors 12 to close, cutting the clamped rope. After cutting is completed, the telescopic end of the second cylinder 11 retracts, and then the telescopic end of the first cylinder 10 also retracts, so that the scissors 12 returns to the initial position, waiting for the next cutting task.

[0042] The right side of the beak component 4 is provided with a bracket 13, on which a slot 14 is formed. A locking slot 15 for placing a rope is formed at the position of the slot 14. The shape and size of the slot 14 are designed according to actual usage requirements to ensure stable support and placement of the rope. At the position of the slot 14, a locking slot 15 for placing the rope is provided. The size of the locking slot 15 matches the diameter of the rope. When the rope is placed into the locking slot 15, it ensures that the rope is fixed in position during knotting and cutting, preventing shaking or displacement, thereby improving the accuracy of knotting and cutting.

[0043] The above does not limit the technical scope of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of this utility model.
