Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of twisting device technology, specifically a twisting device for steel wire rope production. Background Technology
[0002] A wire twisting device is a machine that twists several metal wires into strands according to a certain twist pitch and twist direction. It is a downstream rope-forming process in the metal products industry. Its working procedure is to realize the sequential merging of multiple metal wires into ropes according to the twist pitch and rope diameter requirements of different processes. It is widely used in the steel wire production industry and is applied in industrial and agricultural applications such as oil drilling, power transmission, ship lifting and loading, and elevator lifting.
[0003] The patent with publication number CN212865418U discloses a wire rope twisting device, including a twisting assembly. A rope-gathering device is installed on one side of the twisting assembly, a coating component is installed on one side of the rope-gathering device, and a rope-taking wheel is installed on one side of the coating component. The twisting assembly includes a base, on which a drive motor is installed. The drive motor is connected to a rotating shaft through a coupling, and the rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on a first support plate through a first bearing.
[0004] The aforementioned devices still have the following drawbacks: Currently available rope twisting equipment generally uses a single roller structure for collecting the finished product after completing the wire twisting process. However, some models of the collecting rollers still rely on manual rotation to assist in rope collection during operation. This operation method not only increases the operational burden and reduces work efficiency, but also affects the comfort of operation. In addition, when existing roller equipment needs to be moved, the collected wire ropes are quite heavy, and relying entirely on manual handling is inconvenient. Traditional handling methods are not only labor-intensive, but may also cause equipment damage or personnel injury due to improper operation, bringing safety hazards and efficiency bottlenecks to actual production. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a twisting device for steel wire rope production, which can conveniently and easily drive the winding rollers to slowly wind up the rope using an electric method.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a wire rope twisting device, comprising a twisting machine body and a take-up roller mounted on the twisting machine body, wherein a mounting frame is fixedly connected to the side wall of the twisting machine body, a driving component is mounted on the upper surface of the mounting frame, a connecting shaft is mounted on the driving component, a take-up roller is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting shaft, and two symmetrically arranged brackets are rotatably connected to the two ends of the take-up roller on the outer wall of the connecting shaft.
[0007] Furthermore, the driving components are a motor and a rotating shaft. The lower end of the motor is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting bracket. The output end of the motor is connected to the input end of the rotating shaft through a coupling. A fixing component is installed on the output end of the rotating shaft. The output end of the rotating shaft is installed to the input end of the connecting shaft through the fixing component.
[0008] Furthermore, the fixing component is a third fastening bolt, the output end of the rotating shaft is provided with a rotating groove, a connecting shaft is slidably connected in the rotating groove, and the third fastening bolt passes through the rotating shaft and the connecting shaft and extends to the outside for bolt fastening.
[0009] Furthermore, each of the two brackets has a U-shaped groove at its upper end, which extends through both sides of the bracket connected to the connecting shaft. The connecting shaft rotates and slides within the U-shaped groove. Each of the two brackets has a sealing plate installed at its upper end, and each sealing plate has a first fastening bolt threaded onto its upper end. The first fastening bolt passes through the sealing plate into the bracket for bolt fastening, and the sealing plate is fixed to the top of the bracket by the first fastening bolt.
[0010] Furthermore, both supports have cylindrical grooves at their bottom ends, and rectangular grooves communicating with the cylindrical grooves are formed on the side of the surface of both supports away from the rope winding roller. Universal wheels are slidably connected in both cylindrical grooves, and the same connecting frame is slidably connected in both rectangular grooves. One end of the connecting frame is fixedly connected to the annular surface of the left universal wheel, and the other end of the connecting frame is fixedly connected to the annular surface of the right universal wheel. A second fastening bolt is threaded onto the front surface of both supports, and the second fastening bolt penetrates into the universal wheel for bolt fastening.
[0011] Furthermore, two symmetrically arranged fixed rope rings are fixed to the annular surfaces at both ends of the rope take-up roller, and the fixed rope rings are arranged as double fixed rope rings.
[0012] Furthermore, the two supports are fixedly connected by the same connecting beam.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] This utility model utilizes the cooperation of a motor, a rotating shaft, a connecting shaft, and a winding roller to automatically rotate and wind up the rope during the wire twisting process. This design eliminates the cumbersome operation of relying on manual assistance in traditional processes, automating the winding process, improving work convenience and comfort, and reducing labor intensity. The structure is simple, easy to operate, and highly practical.
[0015] This utility model utilizes the cooperation of a bracket, casters, a connecting frame, a connecting beam, and a second fastening bolt. After completing the rope winding task, the user only needs to first remove the third fastening bolt to separate the connecting shaft from the rotating shaft. Then, stepping down on the connecting frame drives the casters connected to it to move downwards until the casters are exposed. The second fastening bolt is then used to lock the casters in a stable state. At this point, the user can gently pull any bracket and use the flexible rolling of the casters to drag the device to the designated storage location. Upon arrival, the used rope winding roller is removed and replaced with a new one. The device is then pushed back to its original position and reinstalled. The entire operation process is simple and efficient, improving work efficiency and user experience.
[0016] This invention utilizes the design of a fixed rope loop to restrict positioning and stabilize the rope, preventing it from becoming loose or falling off during subsequent movement or disassembly. This improves the integrity and neatness of the rope. This design not only simplifies the operation process but also enhances work efficiency and facilitates the movement and disassembly of the device. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0026] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a wire rope twisting device includes a twisting machine body 1 and a take-up roller 7 mounted on the twisting machine body 1. A mounting frame 2 is fixed to the side wall of the twisting machine body 1. A driving component is mounted on the upper surface of the mounting frame 2. A connecting shaft 6 is mounted on the driving component. The take-up roller 7 is fixed to the outer wall of the connecting shaft 6. Two symmetrically arranged brackets 8 are rotatably connected to the outer wall of the connecting shaft 6 at both ends of the take-up roller 7.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the wire rope twisting device in this utility model is similar in structure to existing wire rope stranding devices. For example, patent publication number CN212865418U discloses a wire rope stranding device. The main improvement of this utility model is that it can conveniently and easily drive the winding roller to slowly wind up the rope using an electric method. Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in the present invention, the wire rope twisting device for wire rope production, during the wire rope twisting process, activates the drive unit to drive the connecting shaft 6 and the winding roller 7 to rotate together for automatic rotation and winding. This design eliminates the cumbersome operation of relying on manual auxiliary rotation in the traditional process, automates the winding process, improves the convenience and comfort of operation, and reduces labor intensity.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the driving components are motor 3 and rotating shaft 4. The lower end of motor 3 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of mounting bracket 2. The output end of motor 3 is connected to the input end of rotating shaft 4 through a coupling. A fixing component is installed at the output end of rotating shaft 4. The output end of rotating shaft 4 is installed to the input end of connecting shaft 6 through a fixing component.
[0029] Specifically, when motor 3 is turned on, the rotating shaft 4 is driven to rotate. Since the connecting shaft 6 is fixed by a fixing component, the rotating shaft 4 can drive the connecting shaft 6 to rotate, which in turn drives the winding roller 7 fixed to the outer wall of the connecting shaft 6 to rotate together, thereby realizing automatic rotation and winding of the rope.
[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, the fixing component is the third fastening bolt 12. The output end of the rotating shaft 4 is provided with a rotating groove 5. The connecting shaft 6 is slidably connected in the rotating groove 5. The third fastening bolt 12 passes through the rotating shaft 4 and the connecting shaft 6 and extends to the outside for bolt fastening.
[0031] Specifically, after the connecting shaft 6 is fully inserted into the rotating groove 5, the connecting shaft 6 is fixed in the rotating groove 5 of the rotating shaft 4 by the third fastening bolt 12, so that the motor 3 can drive the rotating shaft 4 to make the rope take-up roller 7 on the connecting shaft 6 rotate.
[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, both brackets 8 have U-shaped grooves 9 at their upper ends. The U-shaped grooves 9 pass through both sides of the bracket 8 connected to the connecting shaft 6. The connecting shaft 6 is located in the U-shaped grooves 9 and can both rotate and slide. Both brackets 8 have sealing plates 10 installed at their upper ends. Both sealing plates 10 have first fastening bolts 11 threadedly connected to their upper ends. The first fastening bolts 11 pass through the sealing plates 10 into the brackets 8 for bolt fastening. The sealing plates 10 are fixed to the top of the brackets 8 by the first fastening bolts 11.
[0033] Specifically, the U-shaped groove 9 allows the connecting shaft 6 to rotate and slide within the groove, without hindering the rotation of the connecting shaft 6 or the rotation and winding of the rope by the connecting shaft 6 and the winding roller 7. It is also convenient to remove the rope, and the sealing plate 10 can more easily close the U-shaped groove 9.
[0034] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, both supports 8 have cylindrical grooves 14 at their bottom ends. Both supports 8 have rectangular grooves 15 connected to the cylindrical grooves 14 on the side of their surfaces away from the rope winding rollers 7. Both cylindrical grooves 14 have universal wheels 16 slidably connected to them. Both rectangular grooves 15 have the same connecting frame 17 slidably connected to them. One end of the connecting frame 17 is fixed to the annular surface of the left universal wheel 16, and the other end of the connecting frame 17 is fixed to the annular surface of the right universal wheel 16. Both supports 8 have second fastening bolts 18 threaded onto their front surfaces. The second fastening bolts 18 penetrate into the universal wheel 16 for bolt fastening.
[0035] Specifically, when the reel-up roller 7 needs to be removed, first grasp one of the brackets 8, then pull the whole unit to move it to the designated unloading point. Then, remove the sealing plate 10 by unscrewing the first fastening bolt 11, and then easily remove the reel-up roller 7 by grasping the two fixing rope rings 13. Next, install the new reel-up roller 7, then reinstall the sealing plate 10, push it back, and secure the connecting shaft 6 and the rotating shaft 4 with the third fastening bolt 12 to continue wire twisting and reel-up. Furthermore, if... To remove the caster wheel 16 from the cylindrical groove 14, first unscrew the second fastening bolt 18. Simply unscrew it to the outside of the caster wheel 16. Then, press the caster wheel 16 down by stepping on it or pushing it by hand. Finally, tighten the second fastening bolt 18. To retract it, similarly, first unscrew the second fastening bolt 18 away from the caster wheel 16, then push the caster wheel 16 back to its original position, and then tighten the second fastening bolt 18. With the second fastening bolt 18 blocking it, the caster wheel 16 will not slip down.
[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, two symmetrically arranged fixed rope rings 13 are fixed to the annular surfaces at both ends of the rope take-up roller 7. The fixed rope rings 13 are arranged as double fixed rope rings.
[0037] Specifically, after the wire twisting process is completed, before the end of the last section reaches the take-up roller 7, manually tie the end to the fixed rope ring 13, that is, tie the end rope to the double fixed rope ring and tighten it.
[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the two supports 8 are fixedly connected by the same connecting beam 19.
[0039] Specifically, although the rope-reeling roller 7 is fixed to the connecting shaft 6, the two supports 8 are separate from the connecting shaft 6 and not fixed. In order to prevent the supports 8 from detaching from the connecting shaft 6 during movement, the two supports 8 are connected into a whole by the connecting beam 19, which will make it more stable when gripping and moving.
[0040] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
