Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flexibility quality inspection technology, and in particular to a data cable flexibility quality inspection and screening device. Background Technology
[0002] As a key component for transmitting data and power between modern electronic devices, the flexibility and durability of data cables are crucial factors in ensuring long-term reliable use. However, during the manufacturing process, defects that affect the flexibility of data cables may occur, such as uneven material distribution, broken internal wires, or damaged insulation. If these problems are not detected in time, they may lead to a significant decrease in the performance of the data cable in practical applications, or even complete failure. Therefore, ensuring high-quality standards for data cables, especially in terms of flexibility and durability, is essential for maintaining their stable performance. This not only helps improve the user experience but also effectively reduces equipment failures and maintenance costs caused by quality issues. By using rigorous quality inspection processes and technical means to detect and screen data cables with potential problems, these risks can be greatly reduced, ensuring the efficient and stable operation of data cables.
[0003] Existing methods for testing the flexibility of data cables mainly include bending tests and swing tests. The bending test is one of the most common flexibility tests. It assesses the durability of the data cable by repeatedly bending it at a specific angle (e.g., ±60°). A set number of cycles is usually set, such as 1000, to check whether the data cable can withstand frequent bending without breaking or losing function. Although similar to the bending test, the swing test focuses more on simulating the swinging conditions that the data cable may encounter in actual use. In this test, the data cable, which is fixed at one end, is subjected to a certain tension and swings at a specific frequency and angle to test its fatigue resistance and help to understand the durability and stability of the data cable under dynamic usage conditions. However, currently, these testing methods mainly rely on manual screening to identify unqualified products after the test. This method is not only inefficient but also increases labor costs.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a data cable flexibility quality inspection and screening device to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the low efficiency of manual screening, the technical problem of this utility model is to provide a data cable flexibility quality inspection and screening device.
[0006] The technical implementation scheme of this utility model is as follows: a data cable flexibility quality inspection and screening device, including a bracket, a controller, a motor, a rotating frame, guide rods, a first electric slider, a clamping plate, a second electric slider, a camera, a support rod, an angle sensor, and a sorting plate. The controller is installed on the left side of the bracket, and the motor is installed between the bracket and the controller. The rotating frame is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor, and the rotating frame is rotatably connected to the upper part of the bracket. Several guide rods are fixedly connected in a horizontal array on the rotating frame. A first electric slider is slidably connected between every two corresponding guide rods. A clamping plate is slidably connected to the middle of the bracket, and a second electric slider is slidably connected to the front of the clamping plate. A camera is installed on the upper part of the controller, and a support rod is fixedly connected to the lower part of the bracket. An angle sensor is installed on the upper part of the support rod, and a sorting plate is rotatably connected to the upper part of the angle sensor. The motor, the first electric slider, the second electric slider, the camera, and the angle sensor are all electrically connected to the controller.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a silicone block is also included, with the silicone block fixedly connected to the clamping surface between the rotating frame and the first electric slider.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the support rod divides the lower part of the bracket into two collection areas, left and right.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a U-shaped plate and a stop block are also included. A U-shaped plate is fixedly connected to the lower part of each first electric slider, and a number of stop blocks are fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating frame in a horizontal array, with all the stop blocks located in the middle of the U-shaped plate.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a threaded rod is further included. The bracket has symmetrical sliding grooves on the left and right sides, and the clamping plate slides in the sliding grooves. The right side of the clamping plate is threadedly connected to the threaded rod, and the threaded rod abuts against the bracket.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, an acrylic plate is also included, with the acrylic plate installed at the front of the bracket.
[0012] The present invention has the following advantages: 1. The present invention transmits the data after scanning and detection by the camera to the controller. The controller controls the corresponding first electric slider to move away from the rotating frame according to the qualification standard, so that the data cable falls to the sorting plate in two batches. Then, the controller controls the angle sensor to make the sorting plate screen the two batches of data cables in different tilt directions, so as to efficiently complete the screening of data cables and reduce the cost of manual screening.
[0013] 2. The silicone block covering the rotating frame and the clamping surface of the first electric slider of this utility model effectively prevents the data cable from slipping during the test, ensuring stability during the test. The U-shaped plate unifies the clamping position of the data cable, thereby more accurately testing the flexibility of the data cable. When the U-shaped plate releases the data cable, the stop block effectively prevents the data cable from getting stuck on the U-shaped plate of the component, ensuring that the data cable can smoothly enter the screening process, thereby improving the testing efficiency and accuracy.
[0014] 3. This utility model adjusts the position of the clamping plate and the second electric slider by rotating the threaded rod, enabling flexibility testing of data cables of various lengths. This allows for more flexible and accurate testing, effectively improving the adaptability and efficiency of the testing process, ensuring the consistency and reliability of the test results. The acrylic plate makes the screening process more transparent and easier to monitor, thereby improving work efficiency and accuracy. Attached Figure Description

[0021] First, it should be noted that in different described embodiments, the same components are given the same reference numerals or the same component names. The disclosure contained throughout this specification can be applied semantically to the same components having the same reference numerals or the same component names. The location descriptions selected in the specification, such as upper, lower, lateral, etc., also refer to the directly described and illustrated figures and are semantically applied to the new location when the location changes.
[0022] Example: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the system includes a bracket 1, a controller 2, a motor 3, a rotating frame 4, guide rods 5, a first electric slider 6, a clamping plate 8, a second electric slider 9, a camera 10, a support rod 11, an angle sensor 12, and a sorting plate 13. The controller 2 is mounted on the left side of the bracket 1 with screws. The motor 3 is mounted between the bracket 1 and the controller 2 with screws. The rotating frame 4 is welded to the output shaft of the motor 3, and the rotating frame 4 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the bracket 1. Six guide rods 5 are welded in a horizontal array on the rotating frame 4. A first electric slider 6 is slidably connected between every two corresponding guide rods 5. A clamping plate 8 is slidably connected vertically in the middle of the bracket 1. The clamping plate 8 is slidably connected to the front side with a second electric slider 9. The top of the controller 2 is equipped with a camera 10 by screws. The bottom of the bracket 1 is welded with a support rod 11. The top of the support rod 11 is equipped with an angle sensor 12 by screws. The top of the angle sensor 12 is rotatably connected to a sorting plate 13. The motor 3, the first electric slider 6, the second electric slider 9, the camera 10, and the angle sensor 12 are all electrically connected to the controller 2. The bracket 1 also includes a silicone block 7. The clamping surfaces between the rotating frame 4 and the first electric slider 6 are glued with silicone blocks 7. The support rod 11 divides the bottom of the bracket 1 into two collection areas 102, left and right.
[0023] When using this device, firstly, the controller 2 activates the first electric slider 6, moving it away from the rotating frame 4, thus creating a gap between the rotating frame 4 and the first electric slider 6. Next, one end of the data cable to be tested is placed in this gap. Then, the controller 2 controls the corresponding first electric slider 6 to move towards the rotating frame 4, gradually approaching until it firmly clamps the data cable, ensuring the data cable remains stable during testing. The silicone block 7 effectively prevents the data cable from slipping during testing, ensuring stability. Then, the controller 2 activates the second electric slider 9, making the second electric slider... The movable slider 9 moves away from the clamping plate 8, creating a gap between the clamping plate 8 and the second electric slider 9. The other ends of all data cables are placed in this gap. Then, the controller 2 controls the second electric slider 9 to move towards the clamping plate 8 until the data cables are securely clamped, ensuring the data cables remain stable and unaffected by external forces during the testing process. After clamping, the controller 2 starts the motor 3. The output shaft of the motor 3 drives the rotating frame 4, guide rod 5, first electric slider 6, and the clamped data cables to reciprocate from 0-180°, thus completing the data cable bending test. After the test, camera 1... The system scans the bent portion of the data cable and transmits the scan results to the controller 2 in real time. Simultaneously, it controls the second electric slider 9 to move away from the clamping plate 8. The controller 2 checks the data cable's outer sheath for breakage or damage based on the scan results, determining if the cable passes inspection. For qualified data cables, the controller 2 controls the corresponding first electric slider 6 to move away from the rotating frame 4, performing the first release. When the data cable is no longer clamped, it falls downwards due to gravity until it lands on the sorting plate 13. Subsequently, the controller 2 controls the angle sensor 12 to tilt the sorting plate 13 to one side, allowing qualified data cables to slide down along the tilt direction and be collected. Once the unqualified data cable falls into the designated collection area 102, the screening of qualified data cables is completed. After the screening is completed, the angle sensor 12 drives the sorting plate 13 to return to a horizontal state. Then, the controller 2 controls the first electric slider 6 holding the unqualified data cable to move away from the rotating frame 4, so that the unqualified data cable falls off the clamping position and onto the sorting plate 13. Subsequently, the controller 2 controls the angle sensor 12 again to tilt the sorting plate 13 to the other side, guiding the unqualified data cable to different collection areas 102 for collection, thereby realizing the automatic screening of qualified and unqualified data cables and ensuring the efficiency and accuracy of the detection and classification process.
[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, it also includes a U-shaped plate 14 and a stop block 1401. Each first electric slider 6 has a U-shaped plate 14 welded to its bottom. The bottom of the rotating frame 4 has three stops 1401 welded in a horizontal array, and the stops 1401 are all located in the middle of the U-shaped plate 14.
[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a threaded rod 15. The bracket 1 has symmetrical sliding grooves 101 on the left and right sides, and the clamping plate 8 slides up and down in the sliding grooves 101. The right side of the clamping plate 8 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 15, which abuts against the bracket 1 to fix the position of the clamping plate 8.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, it also includes an acrylic plate 16, which is installed on the front side of the bracket 1 by screws.
[0027] To ensure consistent detection of data cable bend positions, the large end of the data cable should face upwards when placed, allowing it to engage with the U-shaped plate 14. This ensures that each data cable is tested at the same position. When releasing the data cable, the first electric slider 6 moves the U-shaped plate 14 forward, while the stop block 1401 remains stationary, pushing the data cable out of the U-shaped plate 14. This effectively prevents the data cable from getting stuck on the U-shaped plate 14 during release, ensuring the data cable smoothly detaches from the U-shaped plate 14 and accurately enters the subsequent screening process. For data cable testing requirements of different lengths, the thread can be rotated clockwise. Rod 15 gradually loosens the clamping plate 8, thereby enabling the clamping plate 8 and the second electric slider 9 to move up and down for adjustment to the most suitable detection distance. After determining the optimal detection distance, the threaded rod 15 is rotated counterclockwise to fix the clamping plate 8 and the second electric slider 9, ensuring a stable and accurate detection process. This not only makes the detection of data cables of various lengths more flexible and accurate, but also greatly improves the adaptability and efficiency of the detection process. The high transparency of the acrylic plate 16 allows operators to intuitively observe the screening of data cables and ensures that the entire detection process is more transparent and easier to monitor, thereby improving work efficiency and accuracy.
[0028] 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.
