Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of copper rod production technology, and in particular relates to a straightening device for copper rod production. Background Technology
[0002] Copper rod straightening involves applying controlled bending and guiding forces to copper rods with initial curvature, ellipticity, or shape defects at high or normal temperatures using a series of arranged straightening wheels. This process gradually corrects internal residual stress and external geometric deformation during continuous movement, resulting in high-quality copper rods with high straightness, smooth surfaces, good dimensional accuracy, and uniform internal structure to meet the requirements of subsequent drawing, rolling, or processing.
[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN201494049U discloses a bare copper rod feeding and straightening device. At least two front fixed rollers with concave grooves on their outer circumference are mounted on a front fixed seat. A front movable seat is mounted in a front guide rail groove on one side of the front fixed seat. One or more front movable rollers with concave grooves on their outer circumference are mounted on the movable seat, and the movable rollers are staggered with the front fixed rollers. A lateral adjusting screw mounted on the front fixed seat rests against the movable seat. At least two rear fixed rollers with concave grooves on their outer circumference are mounted on a rear fixed seat. A rear movable seat is mounted in a rear guide rail groove on one side of the rear fixed seat. One or more rear movable rollers are mounted on the movable seat, and the movable rollers are staggered with the rear fixed rollers. A longitudinal adjusting screw mounted on the rear fixed seat rests against the movable seat. The rear fixed seat and the rear fixed seat are sequentially mounted on a frame. This invention allows the copper rod to smoothly enter the extruder and allows for adjustment of the straightening force.
[0004] This patent has some drawbacks in its use. In actual use, relying solely on the passive rotation of the straightening wheel driven by the movement of the copper rod itself makes it difficult to accurately control the contact pressure and relative motion state between the straightening wheel and the copper rod. This can easily lead to uneven straightening force, unstable straightening effect, and problems such as insufficient or excessive straightening of the copper rod, surface scratches, and excessive ellipticity. At the same time, the straightening efficiency is low, making it difficult to meet the requirements of high-speed continuous production. This affects the straightness, surface quality, and mechanical properties of the final copper rod, and is not conducive to the use of workers. In view of this, we propose a straightening device for copper rod production. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a straightening device for copper rod production to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides a straightening device for copper rod production, comprising:
[0007] A housing, a fixing plate is fixedly connected to one side of the housing, a motor is provided on one side of the fixing plate, a bidirectional screw is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, the bidirectional screw penetrates into the interior of the housing and is rotatably mounted on one side of the inner wall of the housing, the two ends of the bidirectional screw have opposite helical directions, and the external thread of the bidirectional screw is connected to two symmetrically distributed threaded sleeves;
[0008] Two slide rods are fixedly connected inside the housing. Two symmetrically distributed first sliders are slidably installed on the outside of each slide rod. The same connecting plate is fixedly connected to the top of each pair of first sliders and a threaded sleeve. Three equally spaced rotating shafts are rotatably installed on the top of each of the two connecting plates. Straightening wheels are fixedly connected to the top of each of the six rotating shafts.
[0009] A rotating assembly is disposed inside the housing and is used to drive six rotating shafts to rotate simultaneously.
[0010] In this technical solution, when the copper rod needs to be straightened, the motor on the fixed plate is started, driving the bidirectional screw to rotate. The two threaded sleeves slide in opposite directions along the slide bar. The first slider is fixed to the threaded sleeve through the connecting plate, so the connecting plate moves synchronously with the threaded sleeve. The six rotating shafts on the top of the connecting plate drive the straightening wheel to move closer to or away from the copper rod. The straightening is achieved by the pressure of the straightening wheel on the copper rod. During this process, the first through groove on the top of the housing provides sliding space for the second slider outside the rotating shaft, ensuring that the straightening wheel can move smoothly in the vertical direction when adjusting its position, avoiding jamming. With the above structure, the copper rod can be straightened by pressure, which facilitates the use of the operator.
[0011] When the linear module is activated, it drives the sliding housing to move. The two third sliders inside the sliding housing drive the rack to move synchronously. Through the set rotating components, the movement of the rack drives the corresponding three sets of gears to rotate synchronously, driving the rotating shaft and the top straightening wheel to rotate. Through the above structure, the active rotation of the straightening wheel and the dynamic straightening of the copper rod can be realized. It can maintain a synchronous or controllable speed ratio relationship with the movement of the copper rod. It not only effectively drives the copper rod to move forward smoothly, but also performs continuous and uniform plastic deformation correction of the copper rod in real time through the precise pressure adjustment and dynamic contact of the straightening wheel. This significantly improves the straightening efficiency and accuracy, reduces scratches on the surface of the copper rod and internal residual stress, achieves a high-quality dynamic straightening effect, and facilitates the use of the operator.
[0012] In the above technical solution, the top of the housing is provided with three first through slots, and the exterior of each of the six rotating shafts is rotatably sleeved with a second slider, with every two second sliders slidably installed inside the first through slot.
[0013] In this technical solution, the rotating shaft slides inside the first through groove via the second slider, which allows the rotating shaft to slide on the top of the housing.
[0014] In the above technical solution, a linear module is further fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixed plate, and a sliding shell is fixedly connected to the output end of the linear module. The bottom of the sliding shell is slidably installed at the bottom of the fixed plate.
[0015] In this technical solution, the linear module is activated, which drives the sliding shell to slide along the bottom of the fixed plate.
[0016] In the above technical solution, the rotating assembly further includes six gears, which are respectively fixedly sleeved on the outside of six rotating shafts. The housing is provided with two racks, and every three gears are meshed with one rack.
[0017] In this technical solution, since every three gears mesh with a rack gear fixedly sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft, the movement of the rack will drive the corresponding three sets of gears to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the rotating shaft and the straightening wheel at the top to rotate.
[0018] In the above technical solution, further, the top of the two connecting plates is provided with a sliding groove, and a fourth slider is slidably installed inside the two sliding grooves, and the two fourth sliders are fixedly connected to the two racks respectively.
[0019] In this technical solution, the fourth slider at one end of the rack is limited by the groove at the top of the connecting plate to ensure that the rack slides only in the horizontal direction.
[0020] In the above technical solution, further, one end of each of the two racks is fixedly connected to a third slider, and both third sliders are slidably installed inside the sliding shell.
[0021] In this technical solution, the two third sliders inside the sliding housing drive the rack to move synchronously.
[0022] In the above technical solution, a second through groove is further provided on one side of the housing, and the two racks and the two fourth sliders are slidably installed inside the second through groove.
[0023] In this technical solution, the second through groove on the side of the housing provides a sliding channel for the rack and the fourth slider, ensuring that the transmission process of the rotating assembly is stable and reliable.
[0024] In the above technical solution, the fixing plate is further defined as "L"-shaped.
[0025] In this technical solution, the "L"-shaped fixing plate can be designed to better fit the device.
[0026] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0027] When the copper rod needs to be straightened, the motor on the fixed plate is started, which drives the bidirectional screw to rotate. The two threaded sleeves slide in opposite directions along the slide bar. The first slider is fixed to the threaded sleeve through the connecting plate, so the connecting plate moves synchronously with the threaded sleeve. The six rotating shafts on the top of the connecting plate drive the straightening wheel to move closer to or away from the copper rod. The straightening wheel squeezes the copper rod to achieve straightening. During this process, the first through groove on the top of the housing provides sliding space for the second slider outside the rotating shaft, ensuring that the straightening wheel can move smoothly in the vertical direction when adjusting its position, avoiding jamming. With the above structure, the copper rod can be squeezed and straightened, which makes it convenient for workers to use.
[0028] When the linear module is activated, it drives the sliding housing to move. The two third sliders inside the sliding housing drive the rack to move synchronously. Through the set rotating components, the movement of the rack drives the corresponding three sets of gears to rotate synchronously, driving the rotating shaft and the top straightening wheel to rotate. Through the above structure, the active rotation of the straightening wheel and the dynamic straightening of the copper rod can be realized. It can maintain a synchronous or controllable speed ratio relationship with the movement of the copper rod. It not only effectively drives the copper rod to move forward smoothly, but also performs continuous and uniform plastic deformation correction of the copper rod in real time through the precise pressure adjustment and dynamic contact of the straightening wheel. This significantly improves the straightening efficiency and accuracy, reduces scratches on the surface of the copper rod and internal residual stress, achieves a high-quality dynamic straightening effect, and facilitates the use of the operator.

[0038] Example 1: This example provides a straightening device for copper rod production, comprising:
[0039] The housing 1 has a fixed plate 2 fixedly connected to one side of the housing 1. A motor 3 is provided on one side of the fixed plate 2. A bidirectional screw 4 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 3. The bidirectional screw 4 penetrates into the interior of the housing 1 and is rotatably mounted on one side of the inner wall of the housing 1. The two ends of the bidirectional screw 4 have opposite helical directions. The external thread of the bidirectional screw 4 is connected to two symmetrically distributed threaded sleeves 5.
[0040] Two slide rods 6 are fixedly connected inside the housing 1. Two symmetrically distributed first sliders 7 are slidably installed on the outside of the two slide rods 6. The same connecting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the top of each pair of first sliders 7 and a threaded sleeve 5. Three equally spaced rotating shafts 9 are rotatably installed on the top of the two connecting plates 8. Straightening wheels 12 are fixedly connected to the top of the six rotating shafts 9.
[0041] A rotating assembly is located inside the housing 1 and is used to drive six rotating shafts 9 to rotate simultaneously.
[0042] When the copper rod needs to be straightened, the motor 3 on the fixed plate 2 is started, which drives the bidirectional screw 4 to rotate. The two threaded sleeves 5 slide in opposite directions along the slide bar 6. The first slider 7 is fixed to the threaded sleeve 5 through the connecting plate 8. Therefore, the connecting plate 8 moves synchronously with the threaded sleeve 5. The six rotating shafts 9 on the top of the connecting plate 8 drive the straightening wheel 12 to move closer to or away from the copper rod. The straightening is achieved by the pressure of the straightening wheel 12 on the copper rod. During this process, the first through groove 10 on the top of the housing 1 provides sliding space for the second slider 11 outside the rotating shaft 9, ensuring that the straightening wheel 12 can move smoothly in the vertical direction when adjusting the position, avoiding jamming. With the above structure, the copper rod can be straightened by pressure, which makes it convenient for workers to use.
[0043] When the linear module 14 is activated, it drives the sliding housing 15 to move. The two third sliders 16 inside the sliding housing 15 drive the rack 17 to move synchronously. Through the set rotation component, the movement of the rack 17 can drive the corresponding three sets of gears 13 to rotate synchronously, driving the rotating shaft 9 and the top straightening wheel 12 to rotate. Through the above structure, the active rotation of the straightening wheel 12 and the dynamic straightening of the copper rod can be realized. It can maintain a synchronous or controllable speed ratio with the movement of the copper rod. It can not only effectively drive the copper rod to move forward smoothly, but also continuously and uniformly correct the plastic deformation of the copper rod in real time through the precise pressure adjustment and dynamic contact of the straightening wheel 12. This significantly improves the straightening efficiency and accuracy, reduces scratches on the surface of the copper rod and internal residual stress, achieves a high-quality dynamic straightening effect, and facilitates the use of the operator.

In addition to the technical solution of the above example, it also has the following technical features: the top of the housing 1 is provided with three first through slots 10, and the exterior of the six rotating shafts 9 are all rotatably sleeved with second sliders 11. Every two second sliders 11 are slidably installed inside the first through slot 10.
[0045] The rotating shaft 9 slides inside the first through groove 10 via the second slider 11, allowing the rotating shaft 9 to slide on the top of the housing 1.
[0046] Example 3: This example provides a straightening device for copper rod production. In addition to the technical solutions of the above examples, it also has the following technical features: a linear module 14 (the linear module 14 in this example is the SHS50-4000 linear module 14 manufactured by THK Corporation of Japan) is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixed plate 2. The output end of the linear module 14 is fixedly connected to a sliding shell 15, and the bottom of the sliding shell 15 is slidably installed at the bottom of the fixed plate 2.
[0047] When the linear module 14 is activated, it will drive the sliding shell 15 to slide along the bottom of the fixed plate 2.

In addition to the technical solutions of the above examples, it also has the following technical features: the rotating component includes six gears 13, which are respectively fixedly sleeved on the outside of six rotating shafts 9. Two racks 17 are provided inside the housing 1, and every three gears 13 are meshed with one rack 17.
[0049] Since every three gears 13 mesh with a rack 17 and the gears 13 are fixedly sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 9, the movement of the rack 17 will drive the corresponding three sets of gears 13 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the rotating shaft 9 and the straightening wheel 12 at the top to rotate.
[0050] Example 5: This example provides a straightening device for copper rod production. In addition to the technical solution of the above example, it also has the following technical features: the top of the two connecting plates 8 is provided with a sliding groove 19, and a fourth slider 18 is slidably installed inside the two sliding grooves 19. The two fourth sliders 18 are fixedly connected to the two racks 17 respectively.
[0051] The fourth slider 18 at one end of the rack 17 is limited by the groove 19 at the top of the connecting plate 8, ensuring that the rack 17 slides only in the horizontal direction.
[0052] Example 6: This example provides a straightening device for copper rod production. In addition to the technical solutions of the above examples, it also has the following technical features: one end of each of the two racks 17 is fixedly connected to a third slider 16, and the two third sliders 16 are slidably installed inside the sliding shell 15.

In addition to the technical solutions of the above examples, it also has the following technical features: a second through groove 20 is provided on one side of the housing 1, and two racks 17 and two fourth sliders 18 are slidably installed inside the second through groove 20.
[0055] The second through groove 20 on the side of the housing 1 provides a sliding channel for the rack 17 and the fourth slider 18, ensuring that the transmission process of the rotating assembly is stable and reliable.
[0056] Example 8: This example provides a straightening device for copper rod production. In addition to the technical solutions of the above examples, it also has the following technical features: the fixing plate 2 is "L" shaped.
[0057] The "L"-shaped fixing plate 2 makes the fixing plate 2 more compatible with this device.
[0058] Working principle: When the copper rod needs to be straightened, the motor 3 on the fixed plate 2 is started. The output end of the motor 3 drives the bidirectional screw 4 to rotate. Since the two ends of the bidirectional screw 4 have opposite spiral directions, the two threaded sleeves 5 on the outside will slide in opposite directions along the slide rod 6. The slide rod 6 guides the first slider 7. The first slider 7 is fixed to the threaded sleeve 5 through the connecting plate 8. Therefore, the connecting plate 8 moves synchronously with the threaded sleeve 5. The six rotating shafts 9 on the top of the connecting plate 8 drive the straightening wheel 12 to move closer to or away from the copper rod. The straightening is achieved by the pressure of the straightening wheel 12 on the copper rod. During this process, the first through groove 10 on the top of the housing 1 provides sliding space for the second slider 11 outside the rotating shaft 9, ensuring that the straightening wheel 12 can move smoothly in the vertical direction when adjusting the position, avoiding jamming. With the above structure, the copper rod can be straightened by pressure, which makes it convenient for workers to use.
[0059] To achieve synchronous rotation of the straightening wheel 12 to accommodate the copper rod feed or angle adjustment requirements, the linear module 14 is activated. The linear module 14 drives the sliding housing 15 to slide along the bottom of the fixed plate 2. The two third sliders 16 inside the sliding housing 15 drive the rack 17 to move synchronously. The fourth slider 18 at one end of the rack 17 is limited by the groove 19 at the top of the connecting plate 8, ensuring that the rack 17 slides only in the horizontal direction. Since every three gears 13 mesh with one rack 17, the gears 13 are fixedly sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 9. The movement of the rack 17 will drive the corresponding three sets of gears 13 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the rotating shaft 9 and the straightening wheel 12 at the top to rotate. In addition, the housing The second through groove 20 on the side of body 1 provides a sliding channel for rack 17 and fourth slider 18, ensuring stable and reliable transmission of the rotating assembly. With the above structure, the active rotation of straightening wheel 12 and dynamic straightening of copper rod can be realized. It can maintain a synchronous or controllable speed ratio with the movement of copper rod, which not only effectively drives the copper rod to move forward smoothly, but also continuously and uniformly corrects the plastic deformation of copper rod in real time through the precise pressure adjustment and dynamic contact of straightening wheel 12. This significantly improves straightening efficiency and accuracy, reduces scratches on the surface of copper rod and internal residual stress, achieves high-quality dynamic straightening effect, and facilitates use by staff.
