Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal wire rope weaving, and specifically to a metal wire rope weaving structure. Background Technology

[0002] Metal wire rope braiding is a processing method that involves interlacing and winding multiple strands of metal wires according to a specific pattern to form a rope-like structure with high strength and high flexibility. This process is widely used in cable shielding layers, industrial slings, medical devices, and aerospace, requiring the braided wire rope to have uniformity, stability, and fatigue resistance.

[0003] Currently, metal wire rope braiding mainly relies on a stranding machine to drive the braiding device to rotate, twisting multiple separate metal wires into a single rope. However, existing braiding devices typically only adjust the overall tension of the rope after it has been braided. Before braiding, the individual metal wires are laid out independently without a tension balancing device, which can lead to uneven tension between the wires. If the tension difference between the wires before braiding is too large, problems such as uneven tension and misalignment can easily occur during the weaving process, ultimately resulting in a loose braided structure, an uneven surface, or even broken wires.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a metal wire rope braiding structure to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a metal wire rope braiding structure. By setting a tensioning mechanism, a second threaded rod can be rotated by a knob before the metal wire is braided. The rotation of the second threaded rod, in conjunction with the threaded sleeve, causes the slider to slide on the inner wall of the turntable. The sliding of the slider, in conjunction with the crossbar, causes the bending plate to rotate on the inner wall of the gripping plate. The rotation of the bending plate, in conjunction with the tensioning component, can adjust the tension of the metal wire, so that the multiple strands of metal wire can maintain a relatively balanced tension before braiding. This solves the problems of uneven tension and misalignment that easily occur during braiding in the prior art due to the independent feeding of metal wires and the lack of a tension balancing device.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a metal wire rope braiding structure, comprising...

[0007] A turntable, wherein a through hole is provided on the turntable, a turntable platform is fixedly connected to the left side of the turntable, and guide wheels are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the turntable;

[0008] The tensioning mechanism includes a bent plate hinged to the inner wall of a turntable.

A slider is slidably connected to the inner wall of the turntable, and a threaded sleeve is fixedly connected to the side wall of the slider. A first threaded rod is rotatably connected through the inner wall of the turntable, and the first threaded rod is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve. A knob is fixedly connected to the top end of the first threaded rod.

[0009] Preferably, a positioning mechanism is provided at the end of the bent plate away from the crossbar. The positioning mechanism includes a fixing frame, which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bent plate. A second threaded rod is threaded through the inner wall of the fixing frame.

[0010] Preferably, a sleeve is fixedly connected to one end of the second threaded rod, and a handle is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the other end of the second threaded rod.

[0023] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] This utility model provides, for example Figures 1-4 The metal wire rope braiding structure shown includes a turntable 1, a tensioning mechanism 5, and a positioning mechanism 6;

[0025] Turntable 1 has through holes 2. Turntable 3 is fixedly connected to the left side of turntable 1. There are four sets of turntable 3. The diameter of the four sets of turntable 3 gradually decreases from left to right. The diameter of the turntable 3 closest to turntable 1 is the largest and the diameter of the turntable 3 far away from turntable 1 is the smallest. Since the diameter of the four sets of turntable 3 is smaller the farther away from turntable 1, the multiple strands of metal wire can gradually approach each other under the guidance of guide wheels 4 after passing through through holes 2. Guide wheels 4 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of turntable 3. The metal wire passes through the tensioner 52 and the steel ball 64, then through through holes 2, and the steel wire rope is wound in an "S" shape around the outer wall of the guide wheels 4 on the outside of the four sets of turntable 3.

[0026] Tensioning mechanism 5 includes a bent plate 51 hinged to the inner wall of turntable 1. A tensioning element 52 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one end of the bent plate 51, and a crossbar 53 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the other end. When the crossbar 53 pushes the bent plate 51, the bent plate 51 rotates on the inner wall of turntable 1. Simultaneously, the bending plate 51 drives the tensioning element 52 to move synchronously. The axial cross-section of the tensioning element 52 is hourglass-shaped. Steel balls 58 are rolled along the inner wall of the tensioning element 52. The arrangement of the steel balls 58, combined with the shape of the tensioning element 52, ensures that the metal wire does not contact the outer wall of the tensioning element 52 when it is pressed against it. The steel balls 58 prevent the tensioning element 52 from causing wear on the metal wire. A slider 54 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the turntable 1. The slider 54 is a hollow rectangular block structure. The outer wall of the crossbar 53 is attached to the inner wall of the slider 54. Since the slider 54 is a hollow structure, the slider 54 pushes the crossbar 53 while sliding, causing the crossbar 53 to push the bent plate 51. A threaded sleeve 55 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the slider 54. A first threaded rod 56 is rotatably connected through the inner wall of the turntable 1. The first threaded rod 56 is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve 55. A knob 57 is fixedly connected to the top of the first threaded rod 56. By rotating the first threaded rod 56 through the knob 57, the slider 54 can be driven to slide on the inner wall of the turntable 1 through the rotation of the first threaded rod 56 and its threaded connection with the threaded sleeve 55.

[0027] like Figures 2-4 As shown, a positioning mechanism 6 is provided at the end of the bent plate 51 away from the crossbar 53. The positioning mechanism 6 includes a fixed frame 61, which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the bent plate 51. The inner wall of the fixed frame 61 is penetrated and threadedly connected to a second threaded rod 62. When the second threaded rod 62 rotates, it can move axially inside the fixed frame 61 because it is threadedly connected to the fixed frame 61.

[0028] like Figures 3-4 As shown, a sleeve 63 is fixedly connected to one end of the second threaded rod 62, and a handle 65 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the other end of the second threaded rod 62. By rotating the second threaded rod 62 through the handle 65, the second threaded rod 62 can drive the sleeve 63 to move inside the fixed frame 61 under the action of the threaded connection between the second threaded rod 62 and the fixed frame 61.

[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, the first end of the sleeve 63 away from the second threaded rod 62 is an open structure. The inner wall of the sleeve 63 is rotatably connected to a steel ball 64. The steel ball 64, together with the steel ball 58, can radially limit the metal wire inside the tensioner 52, thereby improving the stability of the metal wire during the weaving process.

[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: A metal wire is passed between the tensioner 52 and the steel ball 64, then through the through hole 2, and the wire rope is wound in an "S" shape around the outer walls of the guide wheels 4 on the four sets of turntables 3. Since the diameter of the four sets of turntables 3 decreases with distance from the turntable 1, the multiple strands of metal wire, after passing through the through hole 2, gradually move closer together under the guidance of the guide wheels 4. A winding device, in conjunction with a mold, guides the movement of the multiple strands of metal wire. Simultaneously, the first threaded rod 56 is rotated by the knob 57. The rotation of the first threaded rod 56, in conjunction with the threaded sleeve 55 connected to it, causes the slider 54 to slide on the inner wall of the turntable 1. Because the slider 54 is a hollow structure, it pushes the crossbar 53 while sliding, causing the crossbar 53 to bend. Plate 51, at this time, will rotate on the inner wall of turntable 1. While rotating, the bending plate 51 will drive the tensioning member 52 to move synchronously. The movement of the tensioning member 52 can squeeze the metal wire passing through the through hole 2, thereby increasing the tension of the metal wire. Through multiple independently set tensioning mechanisms 5, the tension of multiple strands of metal wire can be flexibly adjusted, so that the multiple strands of metal wire can maintain a relatively balanced tension before weaving, which is beneficial to improving the weaving quality of the metal wire. At this time, by starting the stranding machine, the turntable 1 is driven to rotate, and the turntable 1 drives multiple sets of turntables 3 to rotate. Through the rotation of the turntable 3 and the guide wheel 4, the multiple strands of metal wire can be gradually wound together. At the same time, with the guidance of the mold and the winding of the winding equipment, the multiple strands of metal wire can be gradually woven into a single metal wire.

[0031] By rotating the second threaded rod 62 through the handle 65, the second threaded rod 62 can drive the sleeve 63 to move under the threaded connection between the second threaded rod 62 and the fixed frame 61. The movement of the sleeve 63 can drive the steel ball 64 on its inner wall to press the metal wire against the surface of the steel ball 58. At this time, the steel ball 64 and the steel ball 58 can be used to radially limit the metal wire inside the tensioner 52, thereby improving the stability of the metal wire during the weaving process and enabling the tensioner 52 to apply a stable and effective tension force to the metal wire.

[0032] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
