Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of galvanized steel strand technology, specifically an automated galvanized steel strand take-up machine. Background Technology
[0002] Galvanized steel strand is a steel product made by twisting multiple galvanized steel wires together. It has the characteristics of high strength, good flexibility, good stability and corrosion resistance. It is widely used in power, construction, communication, agriculture and other fields. After the galvanized steel strand is produced, it is usually wound up by winding equipment such as winding machine for convenient transportation. When using existing take-up machines, the end of the galvanized steel strand is usually fixed to the outer surface of the take-up reel by passing it around the guide wheel. Then, the rotating roller is driven to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating roller drives the take-up reel to rotate to perform the take-up work, so that the galvanized steel strand is wound on the take-up reel. Existing take-up machines have the following problems: after the take-up reel on the equipment has finished winding the galvanized steel strand, it needs to be removed and replaced with an empty take-up reel. However, the take-up reel is usually fixed to the rotating roller with multiple sets of bolts. The disassembly and assembly of the take-up reel is troublesome and time-consuming, resulting in long downtime of the equipment. To address this, we propose an automated galvanized steel strand take-up machine. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the existing defects and provide an automated galvanized steel strand take-up machine. The take-up reel is fixed on the rotating roller by a fixing mechanism. When the take-up reel needs to be removed and replaced, the disassembly and assembly of the take-up reel is simple, which shortens the downtime of the equipment caused by the replacement of the take-up reel and can effectively solve the problems in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automated galvanized steel strand take-up machine, including a take-up frame, a rotating roller rotatably connected to the right side of the upper surface of the take-up frame, a take-up reel installed in the middle of the outer surface of the rotating roller, and a fixing mechanism. The fixing mechanism includes a limiting rod, a moving rod, a fixing block, and a clearance groove. The rotating roller has a cavity inside, and the cavity has evenly distributed limiting rods on both the front and rear sides. A moving rod is slidably connected between two corresponding limiting rods. A fixing block is fixedly fitted on the middle of the outer surface of each moving rod. The outer surface of the rotating roller has slots that correspond one-to-one with the fixing blocks. The inner wall of the take-up reel has clearance grooves that correspond one-to-one with the slots. The end of the fixing block away from the center of the rotating roller passes through the adjacent slot and is inserted into the corresponding clearance groove. The fixing mechanism fixes the take-up reel to the rotating roller. When the take-up reel needs to be removed and replaced, the disassembly and assembly of the take-up reel is simple, shortening the downtime of the equipment due to the replacement of the take-up reel.
[0005] Furthermore, the fixing mechanism also includes a rotating rod, an adjusting plate, and a limiting groove. The rotating rod is rotatably connected inside the rotating roller. The adjusting plate is fixedly sleeved on both the front and rear sides of the outer surface of the rotating rod. The front side of the adjusting plate is provided with evenly distributed limiting grooves. The moving rod is slidably connected between the two corresponding limiting grooves at the front and rear, which facilitates driving the moving rod to move.
[0006] Furthermore, the fixing mechanism also includes a rotating disk and a fixing bolt. The rotating disk is provided at the front end of the rotating rod, and a fixing plate is provided on the front side of the outer surface of the rotating rod. The fixing bolt is threaded into the threaded hole on the front side of the fixing plate to facilitate fixing the rotating rod.
[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a microcontroller, which is located on the front side of the take-up frame. The input terminal of the microcontroller is electrically connected to an external power supply to facilitate the normal operation of the equipment.
[0008] Furthermore, a motor is provided on the right side of the upper surface of the take-up frame. The front end of the output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the rear end of the rotating roller, and the input end of the motor is electrically connected to the output end of the microcontroller to facilitate driving the rotating roller to rotate.
[0009] Furthermore, the upper surface of the take-up frame is provided with two fixed rods on the left and right sides, and a sliding seat is slidably connected between the two fixed rods. Fixed seats are provided on both the left and right sides of the upper surface of the sliding seat. The fixed seats are U-shaped with an opening on the upper side, and guide wheels are rotatably connected inside the fixed seats to facilitate the guidance of the galvanized steel strand.
[0010] Furthermore, a reciprocating lead screw is rotatably connected to the left side of the upper surface of the take-up frame. The outer surface of the reciprocating lead screw is slidably connected to the right side of the sliding seat through a crescent lock. A second motor is provided on the left side of the upper surface of the take-up frame. The front end of the output shaft of the second motor is fixedly connected to the rear end of the reciprocating lead screw. The input end of the second motor is electrically connected to the output end of the microcontroller, which facilitates driving the sliding seat to move.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This automated galvanized steel strand take-up machine has the following advantages: After the take-up reel is full of galvanized steel strand, loosen the fixing bolts and rotate the rotating disc clockwise to drive the rotating rod to rotate. Because the limiting groove is arc-shaped and the center of the arc is not the center of the adjusting disc, the rotation of the adjusting disc causes the moving rod to both slide and rotate relative to the adjusting disc. The moving rod drives the fixing block to leave the clearance groove, releasing the fixing of the take-up reel. Then the take-up reel can be removed. After installing a new empty take-up reel, rotate the rotating disc counterclockwise to fix the take-up reel on the rotating roller. Then tighten the fixing bolts. The disassembly and assembly of the take-up reel is simple, shortening the downtime of the equipment due to the replacement of the take-up reel. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.
[0015] Please see Figure 1-5This embodiment provides a technical solution: an automated galvanized steel strand take-up machine, including a take-up frame 1, a rotating roller 2 rotatably connected to the right side of the upper surface of the take-up frame 1, a take-up reel 3 fitted in the middle of the outer surface of the rotating roller 2, a fixing mechanism 5, and a microcontroller 4. The microcontroller 4 is located on the front side of the take-up frame 1, and its input terminal is electrically connected to an external power source. A motor 6 is located on the right side of the upper surface of the take-up frame 1, the front end of the output shaft of the motor 6 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the rotating roller 2, and the input terminal of the motor 6 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the microcontroller 4. Two fixed rods 7 are provided on the left side of the surface, and a sliding seat 8 is slidably connected between the two fixed rods 7. Fixed seats 11 are provided on both the left and right sides of the upper surface of the sliding seat 8. The fixed seats 11 are U-shaped with an opening on the upper side. Guide wheels 12 are rotatably connected inside each fixed seat 11. A reciprocating screw 9 is rotatably connected to the left side of the upper surface of the take-up frame 1. The outer surface of the reciprocating screw 9 is slidably connected to the right side of the sliding seat 8 via a crescent lock. (The exposed portion of the outer surface of the reciprocating screw 9 is fitted with a corrugated tube, which is fixedly connected between the side of the sliding seat 8 and the side of the take-up frame 1.) When the lead screw 9 is working, the sliding seat 8 moves, causing the bellows on one side to extend and the bellows on the other side to contract. The bellows always wraps around and shields the reciprocating lead screw 9 to ensure its sealing and lubrication. A second motor 10 is located on the left side of the upper surface of the take-up frame 1. The front end of the output shaft of the second motor 10 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the reciprocating lead screw 9. The input end of the second motor 10 is electrically connected to the output end of the microcontroller 4. The operator winds the end of the galvanized steel strand from under the guide wheel 12 on the left, then around the top of the guide wheel 12 on the right, and finally around to the bottom of the take-up reel 3 and fixes it to the outer surface of the take-up reel. Under the control of the microcontroller 4, motor 6 drives the rotating roller 2 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating roller 2 causes the take-up reel 3 to rotate counterclockwise, so that the galvanized steel strand is wound around the outer surface of the take-up reel 3 to perform the take-up work. At the same time, motor 10 drives the reciprocating screw 9 to rotate. The rotation of the reciprocating screw 9 causes the sliding seat 8 to move back and forth along the fixed rod 7, so that the two guide wheels 12 drive the galvanized steel strand to move back and forth at the same time, making the take-up process more orderly. After the take-up reel 3 completes the take-up work, motor 6 and motor 10 stop working under the control of the microcontroller 2. Fixing mechanism 5 includes a limiting rod 51, a moving rod 52, a fixing block 53, and a clearance groove 54. The rotating roller 2 has an internal cavity. Limiting rods 51 are evenly distributed on both the front and rear sides of the cavity. A moving rod 52 is slidably connected between two corresponding limiting rods 51. A fixing block 53 is fixedly fitted onto the middle of the outer surface of each moving rod 52. The outer surface of the rotating roller 2 has slots corresponding to the fixing blocks 53. The inner wall of the take-up reel 3 has clearance grooves 54 corresponding to the slots. The end of the fixing block 53 furthest from the center of the rotating roller 2 passes through the adjacent slot and is inserted into the corresponding clearance groove. Inside the clearance groove 54, the fixing mechanism 5 also includes a rotating rod 55, an adjusting plate 56, and a limiting groove 57 (the central axes of the rotating rod 55, the adjusting plate 56, and the rotating roller 2 coincide). The rotating roller 2 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 55. The adjusting plate 56 is fixedly sleeved on both the front and rear sides of the outer surface of the rotating rod 55. The front side of the adjusting plate 56 is provided with evenly distributed limiting grooves 57. The moving rods 52 are slidably connected between the two corresponding limiting grooves 57. The fixing mechanism 5 also includes a rotating plate 58 and a fixing bolt 59. The rotating plate 58 is provided at the front end of the rotating rod 55. The outer surface of the rotating rod 55 A fixing plate is provided on the front side, and a fixing bolt 59 is threaded into the threaded hole on the front side of the fixing plate. Loosen the fixing bolt 59 to release the fixing of the rotating rod 55. Then, rotate the rotating disk 58 clockwise to drive the rotating rod 55 to rotate. The rotating rod 55 drives the adjusting disk 56 to rotate. Because the limiting groove 57 is arc-shaped and the center of the arc is not the center of the adjusting disk 56, the rotation of the adjusting disk 56 causes the moving rod 52 to both slide and rotate relative to the adjusting disk 56. Under the restriction of the limiting rod 51, the moving rod 52 drives the fixing block 53 to move towards the center of the rotating roller 2 until the fixing block 53 moves out of the clearance groove 54. Remove the take-up reel 3 from the rotating roller 2 and pull it out. Insert the new empty take-up reel 3 onto the rotating roller 2. Then, rotate the rotating disc 58 counterclockwise to move the fixing block 53 away from the center of the rotating roller 2 until the fixing block 53 is inserted into the clearance groove 54 to fix the take-up reel 3 onto the rotating roller 2. Then, tighten the fixing bolt 59 until the rear end of the fixing bolt 59 contacts the front side of the rotating roller 2 to fix the rotating rod 55 and the rotating roller 2 together. This completes the replacement of the take-up reel 3, and you can then continue the take-up of galvanized steel strand.
[0016] The working principle of the automated galvanized steel strand take-up machine provided by this utility model is as follows: The operator winds the end of the galvanized steel strand from below the guide wheel 12 on the left, then around the guide wheel 12 on the right, and finally around to the bottom of the take-up reel 3 and fixes it to the outer surface of the take-up reel. Under the control of the microcontroller 4, the motor 6 drives the rotating roller 2 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating roller 2 causes the take-up reel 3 to rotate counterclockwise, so that the galvanized steel strand is wound around the outer surface of the take-up reel 3 for take-up. At the same time, the motor 10 drives the reciprocating screw 9 to rotate. The rotation of the reciprocating screw 9 causes the sliding seat 8 to move back and forth along the fixed rod 7, so that the two guide wheels 12 drive the galvanized steel strand to move back and forth simultaneously, making the take-up process more orderly. After the take-up reel 3 completes the take-up, under the control of the microcontroller 2, the motors 6 and 10 stop working, the fixing bolt 59 is loosened, the rotating rod 55 is released, and then the rotating disk 58 is rotated clockwise to drive the rotating rod 55. Rotating the rotating rod 55 causes the adjusting disc 56 to rotate. Because the limiting groove 57 is arc-shaped and the center of the arc is not the center of the adjusting disc 56, the rotation of the adjusting disc 56 causes the moving rod 52 to both slide and rotate relative to the adjusting disc 56. Under the restriction of the limiting rod 51, the moving rod 52 drives the fixing block 53 to move towards the center of the rotating roller 2 until the fixing block 53 leaves the clearance groove 54, releasing the fixation of the take-up reel 3. Then the take-up reel 3 can be pulled forward along the rotating roller 2 and removed. Insert the new empty take-up reel 3 into the rotating roller 2, and then rotate the rotating disc 58 counterclockwise to move the fixing block 53 away from the center of the rotating roller 2 until the fixing block 53 is inserted into the clearance groove 54 to fix the take-up reel 3 onto the rotating roller 2. Then tighten the fixing bolt 59 until the rear end of the fixing bolt 59 contacts the front side of the rotating roller 2, fixing the rotating rod 55 and the rotating roller 2 together. The replacement of the take-up reel 3 can then be completed, and the take-up of galvanized steel strand can continue.
[0017] It is worth noting that the microcontroller 4 disclosed in the above embodiments can be AT89C51, and the motor 6 and motor 10 can be YLJ series. The microcontroller 4 controls the operation of motor 6 and motor 10 using methods commonly used in the prior art.
