Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of welding wire spool fixing technology, and in particular relates to a welding wire spool fixing device. Background Technology
[0002] A welding wire spool is a device for storing and transporting welding wire.

[0003] In existing technologies, the wire spool fixing device is relatively primitive, typically consisting of three parts: a fixing frame, an anti-detachment disc, and a damping rotating shaft. However, in practical applications, the welding wire is prone to loosening after leaving the wire spool due to insufficient tension, which can affect the normal operation of the wire feeding mechanism and consequently have an adverse impact on the welding operation.

[0028] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0029] A wire spool fixing device, the structure of which can be made of Figures 1-7 The following is an illustration. In this embodiment, the wire spool fixing device includes: a base 1, a bearing shaft, and an adjusting component. The base 1 is used to provide an installation foundation for other components in the device, the bearing shaft is used to fix the wire spool 9, and the adjusting component is used to flexibly adjust the tension of the wire 91 during operation to prevent the wire 91 from becoming loose.
[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the top surface of the base 1 is provided with a receiving hole 11, an arc-shaped mounting notch 12, a separating roller shaft 13, and a supporting roller shaft 14. The arc-shaped mounting notch 12, the separating roller shaft 13, and the supporting roller shaft 14 are arranged in a ring around the receiving hole 11. The center of the arc of the arc-shaped mounting notch 12 coincides with the center of the receiving hole 11, and the supporting roller shaft 14 is located between the arc-shaped mounting notch 12 and the separating roller shaft 13. The axes of the separating roller shaft 13 and the supporting roller shaft 14 are both parallel to the axis of the receiving hole 11. A rotatable separating roller sleeve 131 is fitted on the separating roller shaft 13, and a rotatable supporting roller sleeve 141 is fitted on the supporting roller shaft 14.
[0031] like Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the bearing shaft includes a locking section 21, a bearing section 22, a limiting section 23, a connecting section 24, and an adjusting section 25 connected sequentially from top to bottom. The outer diameter of the limiting section 23 is larger than the inner diameter of the receiving hole 11. A detachable locking ring 3 is provided on the locking section 21, and a clamping gap for accommodating the welding wire spool 9 is formed between the bottom surface of the locking ring 3 and the top surface of the limiting section 23. A detachable connecting ring 4 is also provided on the adjusting section 25, and a damping assembly for preventing the bearing shaft from rotating due to inertia is provided between the top surface of the connecting ring 4 and the bottom surface of the base 1. During assembly, the operator should first remove the connecting ring 4 and the damping assembly so that the connecting section 24 can be rotatably positioned inside the receiving hole 11. Then, the connecting ring 4 and the damping assembly are installed to complete the assembly between the bearing shaft and the base 1. Next, the locking ring 3 can be removed so that the welding wire spool 9 can be fitted onto the bearing shaft. Finally, the locking ring 3 is installed so that the welding wire spool 9 and the bearing shaft can be well clamped and fixed.
[0032] It should be noted that, in order to achieve a detachable connection between the locking ring 3 and the connecting ring 4, external threads can be provided on the outer sidewalls of the locking section 21 and the adjusting section 25 in this embodiment. Correspondingly, internal threads can be provided on the inner sidewalls of the locking ring 3 and the connecting ring 4, thereby achieving a detachable connection between the locking ring 3 and the connecting ring 4 and the bearing shaft through a threaded connection.
[0033] Optionally, to prevent relative rotation between the welding wire spool 9 and the bearing shaft, a first anti-slip sleeve 221 (which may be made of rubber) can be fitted onto the outside of the bearing section 22, and the outer diameter of the first anti-slip sleeve 221 is equal to the inner diameter of the welding wire spool. Furthermore, a splicing sleeve 31 can be provided on the bottom surface of the locking ring 3, and a second anti-slip sleeve 32 (which may be made of rubber) can be fitted onto the outside of the splicing sleeve 31, and the outer diameter of the second anti-slip sleeve 32 is equal to the inner diameter of the welding wire spool 9. During assembly between the welding wire spool 9 and the bearing shaft, the splicing sleeve 31 should be inserted into the welding wire spool 9. Since the outer diameters of the first anti-slip sleeve 221 and the second anti-slip sleeve 32 are equal to the inner diameter of the welding wire spool 9, friction can be used to restrict the rotational freedom of the welding wire spool 9, preventing relative rotation between the welding wire spool 9 and the bearing shaft.
[0034] In addition, to accommodate different specifications of welding wire spools 9, the staff can also replace the first anti-slip sleeve 221 and the second anti-slip sleeve 32 according to the actual situation, so that the outer diameter of the first anti-slip sleeve 221 and the second anti-slip sleeve 32 matches the inner diameter of the welding wire spool 9.
[0035] As an optional implementation of this embodiment, the damping assembly may include a first damping ring 71 and a second damping ring 72 (the first damping ring 71 and the second damping ring 72 may be made of rubber or nylon material). During assembly, both the first damping ring 71 and the second damping ring 72 should be fitted onto the adjusting section 25, and the first damping ring 71 should be located between the second damping ring 72 and the base 1. In addition, a positioning protrusion 711 should be provided on the top surface of the first damping ring 71, and a positioning groove 15 for accommodating the positioning protrusion 711 should be provided on the bottom surface of the base 1, thereby preventing relative rotation between the first damping ring 71 and the base 1 by means of the cooperation between the positioning protrusion 711 and the positioning groove 15. Correspondingly, a limiting strip 721 should be provided on the inner wall of the second damping ring 72, and a limiting groove 251 for accommodating the limiting strip 721 should be provided on the adjusting section 25. This, in turn, prevents relative rotation between the second damping ring 72 and the bearing shaft through the cooperation of the limiting strip 721 and the limiting groove 251. During use, tightening the connecting ring 4 allows the first damping ring 71 and the second damping ring 72 to come into contact. When the bearing shaft rotates due to the wire feeding action of the welding wire reel 9, the contact between the first damping ring 71 and the second damping ring 72 dampes the rotation of the bearing shaft, thus preventing abnormal rotation due to inertia and reducing the risk of the welding wire 91 becoming loose.
[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the adjustment assembly includes a connecting seat 5 and two adjusting roller shafts 6. The connecting seat 5 is adjustablely positioned on the arc-shaped mounting notch 12. Both adjusting roller shafts 6 are located on top of the connecting seat 5, and the axis of each adjusting roller shaft 6 is parallel to the axis of the receiving hole 11. A rotatable adjusting roller sleeve 61 is fitted on each adjusting roller shaft 6, and a receiving gap for accommodating the welding wire 91 is provided between the two adjusting roller sleeves 61.
[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, after the welding wire spool 9 is installed onto the bearing shaft, the operator can pass the welding wire 91 sequentially around the separating roller sleeve 131 and the support roller sleeve 141, and then leave the device along the receiving gap to enter the subsequent wire feeding mechanism. Since the connecting seat 5 can be adjusted along the arc-shaped mounting notch 12, the operator can change the position of the adjusting component according to the tension requirement inside the welding wire 91 (to...). Figure 2For example, when the adjusting component moves along the arc-shaped mounting cut towards the support roller shaft 14, the distance between the adjusting component and the separating roller shaft 13 decreases, and the tension force inside the welding wire 91 decreases. Conversely, when the adjusting component moves along the arc-shaped mounting cut away from the support roller shaft 14, the distance between the adjusting component and the separating roller shaft 13 increases, and the tension force inside the welding wire 91 increases. This ensures that the welding wire 91 receives appropriate tension, preventing the welding wire from becoming loose. Furthermore, the operator can adjust the orientation of the adjusting component according to the relative position between the wire feeding mechanism and the device, ensuring that the accommodating gap in the adjusting component is aligned with the feed inlet of the wire feeding mechanism, thus adapting to different work requirements.
[0038] Optionally, to prevent abnormal movement of the connecting seat 5 during use, a connecting screw 51 may be provided on the bottom surface of the connecting seat 5, and a locking nut 52 may be provided on the connecting screw 51. During assembly, the connecting screw 51 should be placed inside the arc-shaped mounting notch 12, and the locking nut 52 should be located below the base 1. After adjusting the position and orientation of the adjusting components, the operator can tighten the locking nut 52 to fix the position and orientation of the connecting seat 5.
[0039] In addition, to prevent the welding wire 91 from dislodging from the receiving gap, the adjusting assembly may also include a blocking plate 8, and the blocking plate 8 is provided with a mounting hole 81 for receiving the end of the adjusting roller shaft 6. When the welding wire 91 enters the receiving gap, the operator can detachably set the blocking plate 8 at the end of the adjusting roller shaft 6 away from the connecting seat 5, thereby blocking the welding wire 91.
[0040] As another optional implementation of this embodiment, to facilitate the installation of this device near the wire feeding mechanism and to provide sufficient operating space at the bottom of the base 1, two support plates 16 can also be provided on the bottom surface of the base 1. The two support plates 16 should be located on both sides of the receiving hole 11, and a connecting plate 17 is provided at the bottom end of each support plate 16, with connecting holes 171 for accommodating bolts on the connecting plate 17. During assembly, the operator can fix the base 1 near the wire feeding mechanism with bolts. Due to the presence of the support plates 16, the bottom of the base 1 will have sufficient operating space, so the operator can adjust the position of the adjustment components and replace the damping components without disassembling the base 1, thereby improving the ease of use of this device.
[0041] The effects of the above solution are explained below:
[0042] This embodiment provides a wire spool fixing device that can adjust the tension of the welding wire through a separating roller shaft, a supporting roller shaft, and an adjusting component, thereby preventing the welding wire from becoming loose. Secondly, this device can dampen the rotation of the bearing shaft through a damping component, preventing the welding wire spool from rotating due to inertia. Furthermore, this device can change the direction of the welding wire feed by adjusting the orientation of the adjusting component, thus meeting various practical application requirements.
[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
