Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of washing machine technology, and in particular to a washing machine drum wiring harness bundling device. Background Technology
[0002] A washing machine is a cleaning appliance that uses electrical energy to generate mechanical action to wash clothes. According to its rated washing capacity, it is divided into two categories: household and commercial. In my country, washing machines with a washing capacity of less than 6 kg are classified as household washing machines. Household washing machines are mainly composed of a cabinet, a washing and spin-drying drum (some have separate washing and spin-drying drums), a transmission and control system, etc. Some are also equipped with a heating device. Washing machines generally refer specifically to those that use water as the main cleaning liquid, which is different from dry cleaning that uses special cleaning solutions and is usually handled by professionals.
[0003] In the manufacturing process of washing machines, the bundling of the wire harness in the drum assembly is a crucial step. Proper bundling of the wire harness not only affects the electrical connection stability of the washing machine but also directly relates to product quality and safety. Currently, the use of wire harness bundling equipment for washing machine drums is cumbersome due to difficulties in positioning the wire harness, thus reducing the effectiveness of the equipment. Therefore, we propose a new washing machine drum wire harness bundling device to solve these problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a washing machine drum wiring harness bundling device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A washing machine drum wire harness bundling device includes a fixing plate, a positioning frame fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixing plate, a stabilizing plate fixedly connected to the side of two positioning frames that are close to each other, a pneumatic cylinder fixedly installed on the front of each stabilizing plate, a wire pusher fixedly connected to the telescopic end of each of the two pneumatic cylinders, two sliding holes opened on the upper surface of each positioning frame, a sliding rod slidably connected inside each sliding hole, two connecting plates fixedly connected to the top of each set of sliding rods, two pressure plates fixedly connected to the bottom of each set of sliding rods, a positioning recess fixedly connected to the inner side wall of each positioning frame, and the bottom end of each positioning recess fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixing plate, and the positioning recess and the pressure plate are adapted to each other.
[0007] In a further embodiment, the bottom surface of the fixing plate is fixedly connected to two support seats, each support seat has two mounting holes on its upper surface, and each mounting hole has a threaded inner ring. Two limiting plates are fixedly connected to the side of the two support seats that are close to each other, and the upper surface of each limiting plate is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the fixing plate.
[0008] In a further embodiment, a reinforcing ring is fixedly connected to the outer surface of each of the pneumatic cylinders, and the sides of the two reinforcing rings that are close to each other are fixedly connected to the sides of the stabilizing plate that are far from each other.
[0009] In a further embodiment, a reinforcing wedge is fixedly connected to the upper surface of each of the stabilizing plates, and the sides of the two reinforcing wedges that are close to each other are fixedly connected to the sides of the positioning frame that are close to each other.
[0010] In a further embodiment, two tension springs are fixedly connected to the upper surface of each positioning frame, and the top end of each tension spring is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting plate.
[0011] In a further embodiment, each of the positioning frames has two guide grooves on its inner sidewall, and a guide block is slidably connected to the inner ring of each guide groove. The two sets of guide blocks are respectively fixedly connected to the front and back sides of the pressure plate.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] This device places the washing machine drum wiring harness within a positioning recess. Utilizing the elastic potential energy of a tension spring, the pressure plate is smoothly pushed downwards, achieving initial secure fixing of the wiring harness. During this process, the downward movement of the pressure plate simultaneously drives the sliding rod and connecting plate to work together, forming a tight clamping system. This significantly enhances the clamping force on the wiring harness, ensuring its stability during subsequent bundling and preventing displacement or loosening. A pneumatic cylinder activates, its telescopic end precisely driving the wiring harness pusher to move and neatly gather the washing machine drum wiring harness together. This effectively solves the problem of inconvenient wiring harness positioning, which leads to cumbersome bundling of the washing machine drum wiring harness and reduces the effectiveness of the bundling equipment.
