Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable production technology, and in particular to a cable wrapping overlap rate detection device. Background Technology
[0002] There are many wrapping processes involved in cable production, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the wrapping tape is wound around the surface of the cable core. The overlapping part of the wrapping tape is the overlap portion. Too much or too little overlap is undesirable. Taking copper tape wrapping as an example, if the overlap is too small, the inner layer may be exposed during cable twisting and bending, thus failing to provide metal shielding. If the overlap is too large, it will unnecessarily increase production costs. Therefore, the wrapping overlap rate needs to be controlled within a reasonable range. Currently, most wrapping overlap rate checks rely on manual sampling, which is unsuitable for rapid and continuous production and cannot promptly detect defective products, easily leading to significant waste. Although visual inspection technology is commonly used in this field, there is still a lack of dedicated devices for detecting wrapping overlap rates. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a cable wrapping layer overlap rate detection device, which uses visual inspection technology to detect the overlap rate of cable wrapping layers.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a cable wrapping layer overlap rate detection device, including an arc frame, on which multiple industrial cameras are provided, all of which face the center of the arc frame, and the continuously wrapped cable passes through the center of the arc frame.

[0019] like Figure 2-4 As shown, a cable wrapping overlap rate detection device includes an arc-shaped frame 1, on which multiple industrial cameras 2 are mounted, all facing the center of the arc-shaped frame 1. The continuously wrapped cable passes through the center of the arc-shaped frame 1. Through the multiple center-facing industrial cameras on the arc-shaped frame, the continuously wrapped cable is visually inspected from multiple angles, replacing manual sampling and measurement. This method is suitable for rapid continuous production, enabling real-time, automated detection of overlap rate, timely identification of defective products, and reduction of human error and material waste.
[0020] Preferably, the industrial camera 2 is mounted on a base 3, which is fitted onto an arc-shaped frame 1. By mounting the industrial camera on the arc-shaped frame via the base, the camera's installation position can be flexibly adjusted circumferentially along the arc-shaped frame, facilitating optimization of the shooting angle according to cable specifications and wrapping angles, and improving detection adaptability.
[0021] Preferably, the arc-shaped frame 1 is provided with a plurality of adjustment holes 4, and the bottom of the base 3 is provided with a limiting screw hole 5 that mates with the adjustment holes 4. The screw passes through the limiting screw hole 5 and the adjustment holes 4 to fix the base 3. The adjustment holes of the arc-shaped frame mate with the limiting screw holes of the base, and the base is fixed by the screw, so that the circumferential position of the base on the arc-shaped frame can be precisely adjusted, so as to achieve precise positioning of the camera spacing and angle, ensure detection accuracy, and at the same time, the fixing structure is stable and reliable.
[0022] Preferably, the base 3 is provided with a mounting plate 6, and the mounting plate 6 is provided with a mounting groove 7. The industrial camera 2 is adjustablely mounted on the mounting plate 6 by screws. The mounting plate of the base is provided with a mounting groove, which allows the position of the industrial camera to be adjusted within the mounting groove by screws, further refining the shooting angle and distance of the camera, adapting to the detection needs of different wrapping tape widths or cable diameters, and enhancing the versatility of the device.
[0023] Preferably, the top opening of the arc-shaped frame 1 has a detachable arc-shaped connecting plate 8 at the opening, and the arc-shaped frame 1 is connected to the arc-shaped connecting plate 8 through the adjustment hole 4. After the camera is set up, the arc-shaped connecting plate is installed to enhance the stability of the arc-shaped frame 1.
[0024] Preferably, the arc-shaped frame 1 is also connected to the support 9, and a connecting seat 10 is provided on the support 9. The arc-shaped frame 1 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 10 by passing a screw through the adjustment hole 4.
[0025] Preferably, it also includes a clamping plate 11, and the connecting seat 10 and the clamping plate 11 cover the arc frame 1.
[0026] Preferably, the bracket 9 is mounted on the base plate 12. Mounting the bracket on the base plate facilitates fixing the entire device to the production line table or frame, resulting in a stable structure and convenient installation. This makes it suitable for integrated applications in industrial production environments, enhancing the device's practicality and adaptability.
[0027] Preferably, the industrial camera 2 is provided with three cameras. Having three industrial cameras allows for full coverage imaging of the cable's circumference from different angles, avoiding blind spots inherent in a single camera, ensuring comprehensive and accurate detection of the wrapping layer coverage rate, and improving the reliability of the detection results.
[0028] The steps for using this device are as follows:
[0029] 1. Equipment assembly and cable installation
[0030] Installing the industrial camera: The industrial camera 2 is mounted on the arc frame 1 via the base 3. The limiting screw hole 5 at the bottom of the base 3 is aligned with the adjustment hole 4 of the arc frame, and the position of the base is fixed by screws. The mounting plate 6 on the base 3 has a mounting groove 7. The industrial camera 2 is fixed in the mounting groove 7 by screws. The position of the camera can be adjusted laterally along the groove to ensure that the lens faces the center of the arc frame.
[0031] Assemble the arc frame: The top opening of the arc frame 1 is equipped with a detachable arc connecting plate 8, which is connected to the arc frame through the adjustment hole 4. During installation, first remove the arc connecting plate 8, pass the continuously wrapped cable through the center of the arc frame 1, and then fix the arc connecting plate 8 through the adjustment hole 4 with a screw to form a complete annular detection area.
[0032] 2. Camera position adjustment
[0033] Circumferential adjustment: According to the cable specifications and wrapping angle, loosen the screw between the base 3 and the arc frame 1, move the base 3 circumferentially along the arc frame, adjust the angle and spacing of the camera, and then fix it again through the adjustment hole 4 and the limit screw hole 5 to achieve multi-angle coverage.
[0034] Lateral adjustment: The position of the camera can be finely adjusted by mounting slot 7 on mounting plate 6 to optimize shooting distance and angle, and adapt to different wrapping tape widths or cable diameters.
[0035] 3. Equipment installation and production line integration
[0036] Stable fixing: The bottom of the bracket 9 is located on the base plate 12, and the base plate is fixed to the production line table or frame with bolts. The connecting seat 10 cooperates with the clamping plate 11 to cover the arc-shaped frame 1, thereby fixing the arc-shaped frame.
[0037] Electrical connection: Connect the industrial camera 2 to an external image processing system such as a computer or industrial control computer, set the image acquisition frequency, and adapt to the continuous production speed of the cable.
[0038] 4. Detection and Data Processing
[0039] Real-time shooting: When the cable passes through the center of the arc frame continuously, multiple industrial cameras 2 simultaneously capture images of the wrapping layer, covering the circumference of the cable and avoiding blind spots of a single camera.
[0040] Overlap rate calculation: The image is analyzed by image processing software to identify the ratio of the overlapping area of the wrapping tape to the total width, and the overlap rate is automatically calculated to determine whether it meets the preset standard.
[0041] Non-conforming product warning: If the overlap rate exceeds the threshold, the system will automatically alarm and mark the non-conforming location, which will facilitate timely shutdown and adjustment of the production line and reduce material waste.
