Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of twisting machine technology, and in particular to the feeding mechanism of twisting machine. Background Technology
[0002] A twisting machine is a machine that twists multiple steel wires together into a single steel wire rope according to a certain twist pitch and direction. The feeding mechanism of the twisting machine is an auxiliary mechanism that feeds the steel wires into the twisting machine.
[0003] The existing twisting machine's feeding mechanism is too loose, which leads to uneven feeding speed and wire vibration during the wire feeding process. This can cause the wire tension to fluctuate, resulting in insufficient twisting and a reduction in the quality of the finished wire rope.
[0004] Therefore, to address the problem of uneven feeding speed and wire vibration during the unwinding process caused by the excessively loose feeding of the aforementioned twisting machine, this invention uses a drive motor to rotate the first gear, which in turn rotates the toothed block and connecting column, thereby rotating the second gear. The second gear then rotates the third gear, which in turn rotates the wire on the placement column, achieving uniform unwinding. Simultaneously, a limiting block presses and limits the upper end of the wire to prevent vibration, thus avoiding uneven unwinding speed and wire vibration that lead to insufficient twisting and reduced finished product quality. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the problems of uneven feeding speed and wire vibration that often occur during the feeding process of twisting machines.
[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a feeding mechanism for a twisting machine, including a base, a support plate and placement columns. The support plate is installed on the top outer wall of the base, and five sets of placement columns are rotatably installed on the top outer wall of the support plate at equal angles. A wire feeding mechanism is installed above the support plate, a lifting mechanism is installed above the wire feeding mechanism, and a limit mechanism is installed above the lifting mechanism.
[0007] Preferably, the wire feeding mechanism includes a drive motor, a first gear, a connecting column, a toothed block, a second gear, and a third gear. The base has an internal cavity, and the drive motor is installed on the inner wall of the bottom end of the cavity. The output end of the drive motor is connected to the lower end of the first gear, and the first gear is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the bottom end of the support plate.
[0008] Preferably, the support plate has a cylindrical opening at its center for the connecting column to pass through and rotate. The connecting column has a toothed block circumferentially mounted at its lower end, which meshes with a first gear. A second gear is mounted on the outer wall of the top of the connecting column, and a third gear is fitted onto the outer wall of the side of the placement column. The second gear and the third gear mesh with each other.
[0009] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes an electric push rod, a support plate, a connecting ring, a limiting block, and a limiting column. The electric push rod is installed on the inner wall of the bottom end of the base at the center position. The electric push rod passes through the support plate, and the connecting column and the second gear are sleeved and installed on the outside of the electric push rod.
[0010] Preferably, the output end of the electric push rod is connected to the bottom outer wall of the support plate, a connecting ring is sleeved on the side outer wall of the support plate, five sets of limiting blocks are rotatably installed at equal angles on the bottom outer wall of the connecting ring, and a limiting post is installed on the bottom outer wall of the limiting block.
[0011] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a support block, a sliding block, a buffer spring, a guide wheel, a through hole, a support frame, a connecting block, and a limiting hole. Five sets of support blocks are installed at equal angles on the bottom outer wall of the support plate. Two support blocks are arranged in the same set. A sliding block is slidably installed between the two support blocks. The sliding block has an inverted "U" shape. A guide wheel is rotatably installed between the inner side walls of the sliding block. A buffer spring is installed between the bottom outer wall of the support plate and the top outer wall of the sliding block.
[0012] Preferably, the bottom outer wall of the support plate is provided with five sets of through holes in the circumferential direction, the top outer wall of the support plate located at the center is provided with a support frame, and the side outer wall of the support frame is provided with five sets of connecting blocks at equal angles, and the top outer wall of the five sets of connecting blocks is provided with limit holes.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] 1. By setting up a wire feeding mechanism, during use, the center hole of the wire reel is first inserted into the placement column, and then the drive motor is turned on, causing the drive motor to drive the first gear to rotate. The first gear meshes with the tooth block to drive the connecting column and the second gear to rotate. The second gear drives the third gear to rotate, so that the wire reel of the third gear rotates, so as to feed the wire evenly and avoid uneven wire feeding speed, which would result in insufficient twisting and reduce the finished quality of the wire rope.
[0015] 2. Equipped with a lifting mechanism, during use, the electric push rod first extends upward, pushing the support plate and causing the connecting ring to move upward. Then, the center hole of the wire reel is inserted into the placement column. Subsequently, the electric push rod retracts downward, causing the support plate and connecting ring to move downward. This, in turn, causes the limiting block and limiting column to move downward through the connecting ring, inserting the limiting column above the center hole of the wire reel and making the limiting block fit against the top of the wire reel. This presses and limits the wire reel, preventing it from shaking during wire feeding and affecting the feeding speed. Furthermore, the device can adapt to wire reels of different heights, increasing its applicability. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model provides a technical solution: a feeding mechanism for a twisting machine, including a base 1, a support plate 2 and placement columns 3. The support plate 2 is installed on the top outer wall of the base 1. Five sets of placement columns 3 are rotatably installed on the top outer wall of the support plate 2 at equal angles. A wire feeding mechanism 4 is installed above the support plate 2. A lifting mechanism 5 is installed above the wire feeding mechanism 4. A limit mechanism 6 is installed above the lifting mechanism 5.
[0024] The wire feeding mechanism 4 includes a drive motor 41, a first gear 42, a connecting column 43, a tooth block 44, a second gear 45, and a third gear 46. The base 1 has an internal cavity, and the drive motor 41 is installed on the inner wall of the bottom end of the cavity. The output end of the drive motor 41 is connected to the lower end of the first gear 42, and the first gear 42 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the bottom end of the support plate 2.
[0025] The support plate 2 has a cylindrical opening at the center for the connecting column 43 to be rotatably installed. The connecting column 43 has a toothed block 44 circumferentially installed at its lower end. The toothed block 44 meshes with the first gear 42. The top outer wall of the connecting column 43 is equipped with a second gear 45. The side outer wall of the placement column 3 is fitted with a third gear 46. The second gear 45 and the third gear 46 mesh with each other.
[0026] The electric push rod 51, support plate 52, connecting ring 53, limiting block 54 and limiting post 55 are installed on the inner wall of the bottom end of the base 1 at the center position. The electric push rod 51 passes through the support plate 2. The connecting post 43 and the second gear 45 are sleeved and installed on the outside of the electric push rod 51.
[0027] The output end of the electric push rod 51 is connected to the bottom outer wall of the support plate 52. A connecting ring 53 is sleeved on the side outer wall of the support plate 52. Five sets of limit blocks 54 are rotatably installed on the bottom outer wall of the connecting ring 53. Limit posts 55 are installed on the bottom outer wall of the limit blocks 54.
[0028] The support plate 52 has five sets of support blocks 61 installed at equal angles on its bottom outer wall. There are two support blocks 61 in the same set. A sliding block 62 is slidably installed between the two support blocks 61. The sliding block 62 has an inverted "U" shape. A guide wheel 64 is rotatably installed between the inner side walls of the sliding block 62. A buffer spring 63 is installed between the bottom outer wall of the support plate 52 and the top outer wall of the sliding block 62.
[0029] The bottom outer wall of the support plate 52 has five sets of through holes 65 extending circumferentially. The top outer wall of the support plate 52 located at the center is equipped with a support frame 66. The side outer walls of the support frame 66 are equipped with five sets of connecting blocks 67 at equal angles. The top outer walls of the five sets of connecting blocks 67 have limit holes 68 extending through them.
[0030] Working principle: According to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, firstly, the electric push rod 51 extends upward, pushing the support plate 52 to move the connecting ring 53 upward, inserting the center hole of the wire reel into the placement post 3. Then, the electric push rod 51 retracts, causing the support plate 52 and connecting ring 53 to move downward. The connecting ring 53 then moves the limiting block 54 and limiting post 55 downward, inserting the limiting post 55 above the center hole of the wire reel and causing the limiting block 54 to align with the top of the wire reel, thus pressing and limiting the wire reel to prevent shaking during the wire reel unloading process. Then... During wire feeding, the drive motor 41 is turned on, causing the drive motor 41 to drive the first gear 42 to rotate. The first gear 42 meshes with the tooth block 44, which in turn drives the connecting column 43 and the second gear 45 to rotate. Subsequently, the second gear 45 drives the third gear 46 to rotate, which in turn drives the placement column 3 to rotate. At the same time, the wire reel drives the limiting block 54 to rotate, thereby ensuring that the wire reel rotates at a uniform speed for wire feeding and preventing the wire reel from shaking, which would lead to loose twisting and reduce the quality of the finished wire rope.
[0031] according to Figures 4 to 5 As shown, after the wire reel is installed and fixed, the steel wire is then pulled out from the reel, passes around the lower surface of the guide wheel 64, and passes vertically through the through hole 65 and the limiting hole 68 to connect with the twisting machine. The limiting hole 68 has curved openings at the top and bottom, which reduces wear on the steel wire. At the same time, when the tension of the steel wire is too great, the steel wire pulls the guide wheel 64 upward. The buffer spring 63 buffers the upward force of the guide wheel 64 to prevent the steel wire from breaking due to excessive tension.
[0032] It should be noted that the aforementioned drive motor 41 and electric push rod 51 can be powered by existing operating techniques, whether using a power supply device or an external wire, both of which are conventional operating techniques and will not be described in detail here.
[0033] The above is the entire working process of the device, and all contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.
