Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an automated device for cable support pipe installation, belonging to the field of cable accessory technology. Background Technology

[0002] Cable support tubes provide temporary rigid support for cable accessories (such as cold shrink accessories), ensuring that the cable accessories maintain their preset expanded shape before installation, and preventing them from failing to fit smoothly into the cable end or joint due to their own elastic contraction, thus providing a structural foundation for subsequent installation operations.

[0003] For example, a support tube and a cold-shrink tube including the support tube, authorized by CN201742050U on February 9, 2011, include a support tube and a sheath tube. The support tube is integrally formed by extrusion using a special mold, and has a circumferential groove surrounding the tube wall. Because the support tube is integrally formed by extrusion using a special mold, and has a circumferential groove surrounding the tube wall, the support tube can break along the tube wall at the circumferential groove during extraction, thereby allowing the support tube to be extracted in a strip-like form.

[0004] However, to facilitate the later removal of these support pipes from the cable accessories, the current common practice is to manually pull the strip end of the support pipe through the inside of the support pipe to the other end. This method is not only labor-intensive, but also highly dependent on the operator's skill level. In large-scale installation scenarios, it is prone to problems such as excessively long operation time and excessive physical exertion, making it difficult to meet the construction requirements of high efficiency and low labor intensity. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an automated cable support pipe threading device to reduce the labor intensity of manual strip pulling of the support pipe, reduce operation time, improve pulling efficiency, and meet the work requirements of high efficiency and low labor intensity in different installation scenarios.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its existing problems is: An automated cable support pipe threading device includes a frame. An offset component is installed at one end of the frame, and a threading component is slidably connected to the offset component. A threading rod is installed on the threading component to move the plastic strip of the cable support pipe through the support pipe. A feeding device is installed at the other end of the frame. The feeding device includes a feeding box, and a conveying mechanism adapted to the threading component is arranged below the feeding box.

[0007] Preferably, the conveying mechanism includes a drive shaft support arranged opposite to each other, a drive shaft is mounted on the drive shaft support, the drive shaft is rotatably connected to the drive shaft support, feeding wheels are fixedly mounted at both ends of the drive shaft, the feeding wheels are provided with a plurality of feeding grooves adapted to the through rod, and a fourth power device for driving the drive shaft to rotate is mounted on the frame.

[0008] Preferably, the frame is equipped with multiple feeding box mounting brackets, and the feeding boxes are fixedly mounted on the feeding box mounting brackets.

[0009] Preferably, a clamping device adapted to the feeding wheel is installed on the feeding box mounting frame near the through rod. The clamping device includes a fifth power unit, and a clamping rod is installed at the output end of the fifth power unit. The end of the clamping rod is provided with an arc-shaped surface adapted to the shape of the cable support pipe.

[0010] Preferably, the frame is provided with a T-shaped groove, which is composed of a transverse groove and a longitudinal groove that is vertically connected to the middle of the transverse groove. A fixing plate is fixedly installed on the frame below the T-shaped groove, and a slide rail is arranged opposite to the fixing plate. A slide block is slidably installed on the slide rail.

[0011] Preferably, a tube-through assembly is fixedly installed on the slide block. The tube-through assembly includes a first power device, which penetrates the transverse groove of the T-shaped groove. The width of the first power device is smaller than the width of the transverse groove of the T-shaped groove, and the length of the first power device is smaller than the length of the transverse groove of the T-shaped groove. A second power device is slidably connected to the first power device. A through rod is fixedly installed at the output end of the second power device, and a V-shaped groove is opened at the end of the through rod.

[0012] Preferably, the offset component is fixedly mounted on the fixed plate and located between the oppositely arranged slide rails. The offset component includes a third power device, the output end of which is connected to a lead screw, and a nut is installed on the lead screw. The nut is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first power device.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. Significantly reduce labor intensity and achieve labor-saving operation: By replacing the traditional manual strip threading operation with automated equipment, the equipment can automatically complete the entire process of feeding, fixing, twisting the plastic strip and threading through the cable support tube. Operators do not need to manually pull or push the strip, which effectively reduces physical exertion and solves the problem of high labor intensity when manually pulling the strip. 2. Improve pipe threading efficiency and shorten operation time: The equipment realizes precise coordination of each power unit (first to fifth power units) through the PLC control system. The feeding wheel feeds automatically and the threading rod moves and rotates efficiently according to the preset trajectory, avoiding the drawbacks of manual operation being affected by skill level. The time for a single pipe threading is shorter and continuous operation is possible, which significantly improves the overall efficiency in large-scale installation scenarios.

[0014] 3. Improve operational accuracy and stability: The slide module of the tube threading assembly (first power unit) ensures the linear motion accuracy of the threading rod, the servo motors (second and third power units) realize precise control of the rotation angle and offset position of the threading rod, the clamping device stabilizes and fixes the cable support tube through the arc surface, and the V-groove design ensures reliable snapping and twisting of the plastic strip, reducing the error rate of manual operation and improving the consistency of tube threading quality.

[0015] 4. Simplify operation process and reduce reliance on manual labor: Through standardized processes of automated feeding, positioning, tube threading and resetting, the reliance on manual skills is reduced. Operators only need to monitor the equipment and make simple interventions, which makes it easy to get started quickly and reduces labor training costs. Attached Figure Description

The end of the clamping rod 502 is provided with an arc-shaped surface 50201 adapted to the shape of the cable support tube. The fifth power device 501 drives the clamping rod 502 to perform reciprocating telescopic movements to complete the clamping, positioning or release of the cable support tube in the discharge groove 40501 on the feeding wheel 405.

[0022] The frame 1 is provided with a T-shaped groove 101, which is composed of a horizontal groove and a vertical groove that is connected to the middle of the horizontal groove.

A slide rail 103 is arranged on the fixing plate 102 along the direction of the vertical groove of the T-shaped groove 101. A sliding block 104 is slidably installed on the slide rail 103.

[0023] The slide block 104 is fixedly installed with a tube-passing assembly 3. The tube-passing assembly 3 includes a first power device 301, which is a slide module.

The second power device 302 also drives the through rod 303 to rotate.

[0024] The offset component 2 is fixedly mounted on the fixed plate 102. The offset component 2 is located below the longitudinal groove of the T-shaped groove 101 and is installed between the opposing slide rails 103. The offset component 2 includes a third power device 203, which is a servo motor.

The third power device 203 drives the lead screw 201 to rotate, and the lead screw 201 drives the nut 202 to move back and forth along the axial direction of the lead screw 201. Because the tube-through component 3 is mounted on the sliding block 104, and the sliding block 104 is slidably connected to the slide rail 103, the nut 202 drives the tube-through component 3 to move back and forth along the axial direction of the lead screw 201 on the slide rail 103.

[0025] An automated cable support pipe installation device is also equipped with a control system. The control system adopts PLC control and realizes centralized control of each power device through electrical connection with the first power device 301, the second power device 302, the third power device 203, the fourth power device 407 and the fifth power device 501.

[0026] The working principle of an automated cable support pipe installation device is as follows: 1) The cable support pipe is placed in the feeding trough 40501 of the feeding wheel 405. The fourth power device 407 drives the transmission shaft 404 to rotate, thereby driving the feeding wheel 405 to rotate and feed the material. 2) When the feeding trough 40501 carrying the cable support pipe rotates to the position opposite to the fifth power device 501, the feeding wheel 405 stops rotating, and the fifth power device 501 drives the clamping rod 502 to extend, and the arc surface 50201 of the clamping rod 502 abuts against the cable support pipe to complete the fixing of the cable support pipe. 3) The first power device 301 drives the second power device 302 to move toward the cable support pipe until the wall of the cable support pipe is inserted into the V-groove 30301 of the through rod 303, and the first power device 301 stops moving. 4) The second power device 302 drives the through rod 303 to rotate at a certain angle. After twisting open the plastic strip of the cable support tube that is stuck on the V-groove 30301, the second power device 302 stops rotating. 5) The third power device 203 starts, driving the first power device 301 to move towards the axis of the cable support pipe. The through rod 303 drives the twisted plastic strip to move towards the axis. After reaching the predetermined position, the third power device 203 stops moving. 6) The first power device 301 drives the through rod 303 to move axially along the cable support pipe, inserts the plastic strip from one end of the cable support pipe into the inside and pushes it to the other end. After reaching the predetermined position, the first power device 301 stops moving, completing a single plastic strip insertion operation. 7) The first power unit 301, the second power unit 302, the third power unit 203 and the fifth power unit 501 are reset, and the fourth power unit 407 drives the feeding wheel 405 to continue rotating, transporting the next cable support pipe to the designated position, and repeating the above work process.

[0027] Through its automated and precise design, this equipment effectively solves the pain points of traditional manual cable threading, achieving high efficiency, low labor intensity, and high stability in cable support pipe threading operations, thus meeting the technical requirements of modern construction scenarios.
