Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of filler rope winding equipment, specifically a winding equipment for producing optical cable filler rope. Background Technology

[0002] Optical cable filler rope is a rope-like material used to fill gaps in optical cables. Its main function is to protect the optical cable core wires, reduce their degree of freedom, and improve the mechanical strength and resistance to external forces of the optical cable. After production, the optical cable filler rope needs to be wound up for convenient subsequent use.

[0003] A Chinese patent application with publication number CN202022351717.4 discloses an adjustable winding device for producing optical cable filler rope. The application states that: "This adjustable winding device for producing optical cable filler rope allows the threaded post inside the sleeve to disengage from the fixing hole at one end of the rotating shaft by loosening the disassembly sleeve. This allows the fixing sleeve to be disassembled and removed along the limiting groove on one side of the rotating shaft via a U-shaped limiting strip, thus facilitating the removal and replacement of the optical cable filler rope after winding."

[0004] Through a search of the aforementioned patents and in conjunction with the actual situation of winding filler rope, we found that after the filler rope on the winding roller is wound, the winding roller needs to be replaced in order to achieve continuous winding. However, the aforementioned technologies or existing technologies usually require the winding roller to be replaced on the equipment before the winding operation can continue. In this case, it is necessary to wait for the previous winding roller to finish winding before the current winding roller can be disassembled and a new winding roller can be installed for winding. There is a certain time gap during this period, that is, the waiting time for winding is long, making it difficult to quickly restore the normal winding of the filler rope and reducing the winding efficiency of the filler rope.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-5 A winding device for producing optical cable filler rope includes a base 1. A transfer groove 2, extending horizontally through the top of the base 1, is provided. A transfer plate 3 is slidably connected within the transfer groove 2. A clearance groove 202 is provided on the inner bottom wall of the transfer groove 2, facilitating the movement of a rack 303. A cavity 203 is located at the center of the bottom of the clearance groove 202, communicating with the clearance groove 202 to facilitate the rotation of a drive gear 501 and its meshing with the rack 303. A drive gear 501 driven by a second servo motor 5 is installed within the cavity 203. The second servo motor 5 is mounted on one side of the base 1. The power transmission of the second servo motor 5... The output shaft extends through the cavity 203 and is connected to the drive gear 501. A rack 303 is fixed at the bottom of the transfer plate 3 and placed in the relief groove 202. The rack 303 meshes with the drive gear 501. By rotating the power output shaft of the servo motor 5, the drive gear 501 can be rotated in both directions. Thus, by meshing with the rack 303, the transfer plate 3 is driven to reciprocate in the transfer groove 2. Two sets of symmetrical winding assemblies 4 are provided on the top of the transfer plate 3. Each set of winding assemblies 4 includes two support plates 401 fixed on the base 1 and a winding roller 404 disposed between the two support plates 401.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4In this embodiment, a closing block 10 is fixed to the top of each support plate 401 by bolts. An arc-shaped groove 13 is provided on the side of the support plate 401 and the closing block 10 that are close to each other. A bearing groove 14 is provided in the arc-shaped groove 13. Bearings 4042 are sleeved on the shafts of the take-up roller 404 near both ends. The shafts of the take-up roller 404 are placed in the arc-shaped groove 13 and the bearings 4042 are placed in the bearing groove 14.

[0029] Specifically, the arc-shaped groove 13 between the support plate 401 and the closing block 10 forms a circle, which can play a good closing role when the shaft of the take-up roller 404 is inserted. The arc-shaped groove 13 also contains a bearing groove 14, which is conducive to the insertion of the bearing 4042 on the take-up roller 404. On the one hand, it can limit the position of the take-up roller 404, and on the other hand, it can facilitate the stable rotation of the take-up roller 404. The closing block 10 is fixed by bolts, which can facilitate subsequent disassembly and replacement of the take-up roller 404.

[0030] Please see Figure 3 In this embodiment, a driven gear 4041 is connected to the shaft at one end of the take-up roller 404. A mounting base 402 is fixed on one of the support plates 401 of the two sets of take-up assemblies 4. A servo motor 403 is mounted on the mounting base 402. A drive gear 4031 is connected to the power output shaft of the servo motor 403, and the drive gear 4031 meshes with the driven gear 4041.

[0031] Specifically, after the servo motor 403 starts, its power output shaft drives the drive gear 4031 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear 4041 to rotate. The rotation of the driven gear 4041 drives the take-up roller 404 to rotate between the two support plates 401, thereby achieving the winding of the filler rope.

[0032] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, a positioning plate 29 is fixed on one side of the base 1 at a position corresponding to the position of the transfer groove 2, and a fixing plate 7 is fixed on the other side of the base 1 at a position at the bottom of the transfer groove 2. A positioning plate 18 is fixed on the top of the fixing plate 7, and a positioning groove 801 is provided on the positioning plate 18. Limiting grooves 201 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the transfer groove 2, and limiting sliders 301 are fixed on both sides of the transfer plate 3. The limiting sliders 301 are placed in the limiting grooves 201. A positioning block 302 is also fixed on the side of the transfer plate 3 away from the positioning plate 29 at a position corresponding to the position of the positioning groove 801. The size of the positioning block 302 is adapted to the size of the positioning groove 801.

[0033] Specifically, when the transfer plate 3 is in motion, the movement of the limiting slider 301 within the limiting groove 201 improves the stability of the transfer plate 3 during movement. A positioning plate 9 is provided on one side of the transfer groove 2. When one side of the transfer plate 3 is in contact with the positioning plate 9, the winding assembly 4 on the top right side of the transfer plate 3 corresponds precisely to the wire feeding assembly 6 (e.g., ...). Figure 2 As shown), when the other side of the transfer plate 3 is in contact with the positioning plate 8, the winding assembly 4 on the top left side of the transfer plate 3 corresponds exactly to the wire feeding assembly 6 (as shown). Figure 1 As shown in the figure, a positioning block 302 is provided on the transfer plate 3 and a positioning groove 801 is provided on the positioning plate 8. When the transfer plate 3 and the positioning plate 8 are attached, the positioning block 302 can be placed into the positioning groove 801, thereby using the positioning plate 8 to play a certain manufacturing effect on one side of the transfer plate 3 and ensure the stability of the transfer plate 3.

[0034] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the length of the transfer plate 3 is the same as the length of the transfer groove 2, and the distance between one side of the base 1 and the positioning plate 8 is equal to half the length of the transfer plate 3.

[0035] Specifically, when the transfer plate 3 moves in the transfer groove 2, it can ensure that the two sets of winding components 4 on the transfer plate 3 are accurately aligned with the wire feeding component 6, thereby facilitating the wire feeding component 6 to transfer the filler rope to the winding roller 404 of the winding component 4.

[0036] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, a wire feeding assembly 6 is also provided at the top of the base 1 and in front of one of the winding assemblies 4. The wire feeding assembly 6 includes two support plates 601 fixed on the base 1, a servo motor 602 mounted on one of the support plates 601, and a sliding sleeve 603 driven by the servo motor 602. The power output shaft of the servo motor 602 passes through one of the support plates 601 and is connected to a reciprocating screw 6021. The end of the reciprocating screw 6021 away from the servo motor 602 is sleeved with the sliding sleeve 603 and rotatably connected to the other support plate 601. A wire feeding ring 604 is fixed at the top of the sliding sleeve 603, and a limit block 12 is fixed at the bottom of the sliding sleeve 603. A limit plate 11 is fixed between the two support plates 601, and the bottom of the limit block 12 is placed in the limit groove 1101 opened at the top of the limit plate 11.

[0037] Specifically, after the servo motor 602 is started, its power output shaft drives the reciprocating screw 6021 to rotate, thereby driving the sliding sleeve 603 fitted with it to move. When the sliding sleeve 603 moves, it synchronously drives the wire feeding ring 604 to move, and drives the limiting block 12 to move in the limiting groove 1101 of the limiting plate 11, thereby limiting and stabilizing the sliding sleeve 603. When the wire feeding ring 604 moves, it can evenly feed the filler rope passing through it to the take-up roller 404, ensuring that the take-up roller 404 is wound evenly.

[0038] When in use, when one of the winding components 4 on the transfer plate 3 has finished winding the filler rope and the winding roller 404 needs to be replaced, after the filler rope is cut, the operator can start the servo motor 2 5. The power output shaft of the servo motor 2 5 drives the drive gear 501 to rotate, thereby using the rotation of the drive gear 501 to drive the meshing rack 303 to move, thereby driving the transfer plate 3 to move in the transfer groove 2, thereby transferring the other winding component 4 to the position of the corresponding wire feeding component 6. After reconnecting the filler rope to the winding roller 404, the winding roller 404 can be used to continue winding the filler rope. The whole process is short and can restore the continued winding of the filler rope more quickly.

[0039] While one set of winding components 4 is winding the filler rope, the other set of winding components 4 is moved by the transfer plate 3 to a position away from the wire feeding component 6. At this time, the operator can open the closing block 10 on the winding component 4 and remove the winding roller 404 with the filler rope from between the two support plates 401. Then, a new winding roller 404 to be wound is installed, and the driven gear 4041 on the winding roller 404 is meshed with the driving gear 4031, so that the bearing 4042 is placed in the bearing groove 14. Finally, the closing block 10 is fixed back to the support plate 401 with bolts to achieve stability of the shaft of the winding roller 404.

[0040] In other words, there are two sets of winding components 4 on the transfer plate 3. When one set of winding components 4 is winding the filler rope, the other set of winding components 4 can replace the winding roller 404 installed on it. The two sets of winding components 4 are driven by the servo motor 5 and correspond to the wire feeding component 6 in a cycle, that is, they cooperate with each other to achieve high-efficiency winding of the filler rope.

[0041] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
