Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable shaping technology, specifically a shaping device for preventing damage to flexible cables. Background Technology
[0002] Cables are generally classified as wires when they have fewer cores, smaller diameters, and simpler structures. Uninsulated wires are called bare wires, while others are called cables. Cables with larger conductor cross-sectional areas (greater than 6 square millimeters) are called large cables, while those with smaller cross-sectional areas (less than or equal to 6 square millimeters) are called small wires, also known as building wires.
[0003] Currently, existing cable shaping equipment in cable maintenance work has significant shortcomings. Faced with cables deformed for various reasons, this type of equipment cannot complete the comprehensive repair of the cable in one go. In actual operation, it is often necessary to process the cable at different stages multiple times, from straightening bent parts to repairing outer sheath damage. Each step requires separate operation of the equipment and consumes corresponding time. As a result, the time spent repairing a cable increases significantly, which not only prolongs the overall work cycle but also increases labor costs and equipment wear and tear costs simultaneously, ultimately leading to a significant increase in cable repair costs. In view of this, in order to improve work efficiency and reduce costs, there is an urgent need to design an innovative cable shaping equipment that can repair cables in one go to meet the urgent needs in actual work. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a shaping device for anti-damage flexible cables to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a shaping device for anti-damage flexible cables, including a mounting plate, a grinding mechanism on the top left side of the mounting plate, and a shaping mechanism on the right side of the grinding mechanism;
[0006] The shaping mechanism includes a support base, which is fixedly connected to the top right side of the mounting plate. A vertical plate is fixedly connected to the top of the support base, and a clamping member is fixedly connected to the top of the vertical plate. A heating plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the clamping member.
[0007] Preferably, a placement box is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate, and a placement groove is provided at the bottom right side of the placement box. A guide plate is inserted into the placement groove, and a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the guide plate. The fixing plate is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate, and excess cable repair adhesive on the surface falls into the interior of the placement box through the guide plate, which can achieve the purpose of collecting the cable repair adhesive.
[0008] Preferably, a flow guide groove is provided at the bottom front side of the placement box. The flow guide groove is rectangular in shape and can discharge glue through the flow guide groove.
[0009] Preferably, the grinding mechanism includes a rotating cylinder, which is disposed on the top of the mounting plate. Grinding components are fixedly connected inside the rotating cylinder. The number of grinding components is several, and the several grinding components are distributed in a ring with equal spacing. The grinding components inside the rotating cylinder can grind the wires and cables, which facilitates the subsequent shaping and repair of the wires and cables.
[0010] Preferably, a first spur gear is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating drum, a second spur gear meshes with the surface of the first spur gear, an output shaft is fixedly connected to the inner ring of the second spur gear, and a motor is fixedly connected to the left side of the output shaft. With the cooperation of the first spur gear and the second spur gear, the rotating drum can be driven to rotate synchronously.
[0011] Preferably, the outer surface of the rotating drum is rotatably connected to two connectors. The right side of the output shaft is rotatably connected to the left side wall of the right connector via a bearing. The left side of the motor is fixed to the right side of the left connector. The connectors are fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate. The connectors can support the rotating drum and ensure the stability of the rotating drum during rotation.
[0012] Preferably, the connector is fixed by making mounting holes in the mounting plate and using expansion bolts to firmly fix the connector to the mounting plate.
[0013] Preferably, the motor is a DC motor with high torque and low speed characteristics.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a shaping device for anti-damage flexible cables, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. This anti-damage flexible cable shaping equipment, during cable repair operations, first carefully places the cable, coated with cable repair adhesive, into a specially designed clamp. This clamp is precisely designed to securely hold the cable, ensuring its position does not shift during subsequent operations. Then, the heating plate is activated, and the heat generated is evenly transferred to the cable within the clamp. The cable repair adhesive gradually hardens upon heating, and simultaneously, the heat gives the cable a certain degree of plasticity. Through continuous and stable heating and drying by the heating plate, the cable can be effectively shaped, restoring it to its ideal shape. Compared to traditional methods, this operation method has significant advantages in terms of simplicity, speed, and efficiency, greatly shortening the time required for repair and shaping, and improving work efficiency.
[0016] 2. This anti-damage flexible cable shaping equipment, after the surface grinding process of the wire and cable is completed, its surface becomes smooth and flat, ready for subsequent repair work. At this time, the wire and cable is transferred to a specific placement box. The placement box is equipped with a sophisticated device that can precisely control the dripping of cable repair adhesive. As time goes by, the repair adhesive slowly drips from the drip nozzle in the placement box, evenly dripping onto the surface of the wire and cable. The wire and cable with repair adhesive gently touches the bottom of the placement box under the action of gravity. During this process, the excess cable repair adhesive on the surface will not flow randomly because guide plates are cleverly installed around the perimeter of the placement box. These guide plates are inclined and surround the edge of the placement box. The excess repair adhesive slides down the surface of the wire and cable, and after contacting the guide plates, it flows down in an orderly manner along the inclined angle of the guide plates, eventually falling into the internal space of the placement box. In this way, the collection of cable repair adhesive is achieved efficiently, which not only avoids the waste of repair adhesive, but also maintains the cleanliness of the working environment.
[0017] 3. The shaping equipment for the anti-damage flexible cable mainly consists of a starter motor, gears, a rotating drum, and grinding components. When the equipment starts, the starter motor begins to run, and the output shaft of the motor generates high-speed rotational power. This power is directly transmitted to the gears connected to it. Due to the special structure of the gears, they begin to rotate under the drive of the motor. The rotation of the gears efficiently transmits the power to the rotating drum through gear meshing or chain transmission. After receiving power, the rotating drum begins to rotate stably around its own axis. The rotating drum is equipped with grinding components, which can be sandpaper, grinding wheels, or other grinding tools made of different materials. The material of the wire and cable and the required degree of polishing are selected and installed. During the rotation of the drum, the polishing parts also make circular motion. When the wire and cable to be polished is inserted into the drum from one end, the wire and cable will come into contact with the high-speed rotating polishing parts. The polishing parts, with their own roughness and the high-speed friction provided by the rotation of the drum, polish the surface of the wire and cable. During the polishing process, the oxide layer, stains, burrs and other impurities on the surface of the wire and cable will be gradually removed, providing a good foundation for subsequent shaping and repair work, making it easier for the wire and cable to be shaped and repaired in the later stage to restore its good performance and appearance.

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.
[0025] This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0026] Example 1:
[0027] Combination Figures 1 to 2 3. A shaping device for a damage-resistant flexible cable, comprising a mounting plate 1, a grinding mechanism 3 disposed on the top left side of the mounting plate 1, and a shaping mechanism 2 disposed on the right side of the grinding mechanism 3.
[0028] The shaping mechanism 2 includes a support base 22, which is fixedly connected to the top right side of the mounting plate 1. A vertical plate 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the support base 22, and a clamping member 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the vertical plate 25. A heating plate 24 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the clamping member 23. The clamping member is precisely designed to securely fix the wires and cables, ensuring that their position will not shift during subsequent operations. Then, the heating plate 24 is activated, and the heat generated by the heating plate 24 is evenly transferred to the wires and cables placed in the clamping member. The cable repair adhesive gradually solidifies after being heated. At the same time, the heat also makes the material of the wires and cables somewhat plastic. Through the continuous and stable heating and drying by the heating plate 24, the wires and cables can be effectively shaped and restored to their ideal shape. Compared with traditional methods, this operation method has significant advantages of being simple, fast, and efficient, greatly shortening the time required for repair and shaping and improving work efficiency.
[0029] Furthermore, a placement box 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 1. A placement groove is provided at the bottom right side of the placement box 21. A guide plate 26 is inserted into the placement groove. A fixing plate 27 is fixedly connected to the surface of the guide plate 26. The fixing plate 27 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 1. Excess cable repair adhesive on the surface falls into the interior of the placement box 21 through the guide plate 26, which can achieve the purpose of collecting the cable repair adhesive.
[0030] Furthermore, a flow guide groove is provided at the bottom front side of the placement box 21. The flow guide groove is rectangular in shape and can discharge glue through the flow guide groove.
[0031] Example 2:
[0032] See Figure 4 Furthermore, based on Embodiment 1, the grinding mechanism 3 further includes a rotating cylinder 31, which is disposed on the top of the mounting plate 1. Grinding components are fixedly connected inside the rotating cylinder 31. The number of grinding components is several, and the several grinding components are distributed in a ring with equal spacing. The grinding components inside the rotating cylinder 31 can grind the wires and cables, which facilitates the subsequent shaping and repair of the wires and cables.
[0033] In addition, a first spur gear 32 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating drum 31, a second spur gear 33 meshes with the surface of the first spur gear 32, an output shaft is fixedly connected to the inner ring of the second spur gear 33, and a motor 34 is fixedly connected to the left side of the output shaft. With the cooperation of the first spur gear 32 and the second spur gear 33, the rotating drum 31 can be driven to rotate synchronously.
[0034] Furthermore, two connecting parts 35 are rotatably connected to the outer surface of the rotating drum 31. The right side of the output shaft is rotatably connected to the left side wall of the right connecting part 35 through a bearing. The left side of the motor 34 is fixed to the right side of the left connecting part 35. The connecting parts 35 are fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 1. The connecting parts 35 can support the rotating drum 31 and ensure the stability of the rotating drum 31 during rotation.
[0035] All electrical components mentioned in this article are electrically connected to the controller and power supply. The control method of this utility model is controlled by the controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art. The power supply is also common knowledge in the art. Furthermore, this utility model is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, so the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail.
[0036] In actual operation, when this device is used, the motor 34 is started first. The motor 34 drives the second spur gear 33 and the first spur gear 32 to rotate synchronously, and drives the rotating drum 31 to rotate. At this time, the wire and cable are inserted into the inside of the rotating drum 31. The grinding parts inside the rotating drum 31 can grind the wire and cable, which is convenient for the wire and cable to be reshaped and repaired later.
[0037] After the surface of the wire and cable is polished, the wire and cable are then passed through the placement box 21, and cable repair adhesive is applied to the surface of the wire and cable. At this point, the surface of the wire and cable is evenly coated with cable repair adhesive. When the wire and cable are placed inside the clamping member 23, the wire and cable come into contact with the placement box 21, and excess cable repair adhesive on the surface falls into the placement box 21 through the guide plate 26, which can achieve the purpose of collecting cable repair adhesive. When the wire and cable are placed inside the clamping member 23, the heating plate 24 can heat and dry the wire and cable to achieve the purpose of cable shaping, which is simple, fast and efficient.
