Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of industrial surface treatment tools, and specifically relates to a steel wire roller. Background Technology

[0002] In the surface treatment process of industrial production, steel wire rollers serve as key tools, undertaking important tasks such as dust prevention, polishing, cleaning, and grinding. The existing manufacturing method of steel wire rollers involves straightening and cutting steel wire to a fixed length, pressing it into strips, and then spirally winding it onto a pre-processed roller body. The ends are then fixed by welding or adhesive, making the entire steel wire structure and roller body an inseparable whole.

[0003] However, this type of wire roller has significant limitations: First, the winding and fixing method is prone to loosening and displacement of the wires due to long-term vibration and uneven stress, affecting operation and shortening the overall service life; second, the existing process determines that the material, thickness, length and other parameters of the wires are fixed during manufacturing, and cannot be flexibly adjusted or replaced according to different subsequent operation requirements (such as processing workpieces of different materials or adapting to different intensity conditions), resulting in poor versatility; in addition, the overall structure is fixed, and the wires and roller body form an inseparable whole. When some wires are worn or broken, the damaged parts cannot be replaced individually, and the whole thing must be discarded and replaced, resulting in material waste and increased usage costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a versatile, structurally stable, and easily replaceable wire roller to solve the aforementioned problems of existing wire rollers.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a wire roller, which includes a fixed base, several fixed sleeves, several wire strands, an end cover and a mounting shaft, wherein the end cover is installed at both ends of the fixed base and the mounting shaft is installed at the center of the end cover;

[0006] The fixed base is provided with several positioning holes, and the fixed sleeve is fixedly installed in the positioning holes. The fixed sleeve and the positioning holes on the fixed base can be connected by adhesive, welding or interference fit to ensure the installation stability of the fixed sleeve on the fixed base.

[0007] The fixing sleeve and the fixing base can also adopt a detachable connection structure to realize quick assembly and disassembly of the fixing sleeve and the fixing base, while ensuring that the fixing sleeve is stably installed on the fixing base.

[0008] The steel wire strand is composed of several steel wires and is fixedly installed on the fixed sleeve. The steel wire strand and the fixed sleeve can be fixedly connected by extrusion, welding, gluing, screws, pins and other fixing methods.

[0009] The number of fixing sleeves and steel wire strands installed on the fixing base can be adjusted according to needs. The steel wires can be replaced with different materials, lengths and thicknesses to adapt to different working environments.

[0010] Furthermore, the fixing base is cylindrical in shape with a hollow internal structure, and several positioning holes are arranged in a circular array along the central axis of the fixing base.

[0011] Furthermore, the fixing sleeve is cylindrical in shape, with a cylindrical hole at its axial center. The inner diameter of the cylindrical hole matches the outer diameter of the steel wire strand, and the end of the steel wire strand is fixed inside the cylindrical hole of the fixing sleeve.

[0012] Furthermore, the steel wire strands can be replaced with different materials. For example, stainless steel wire containing chromium and nickel is used in humid or corrosive environments, high-carbon steel wire is used for high-strength grinding, brass wire is used for precision parts processing, and steel wire mixed with nylon wire is used for dry cleaning.

[0013] Furthermore, the detachable connection structure between the fixing sleeve and the fixing base adopts a threaded connection.

[0014] Furthermore, a bolt is vertically fixedly installed below the fixing sleeve, and the original positioning hole on the fixing seat is replaced with a bolt internal thread hole. The bolt and the bolt internal thread hole are compatible, and the bolt can be tightened into the bolt internal thread hole of the fixing seat.

[0015] Furthermore, the detachable connection structure between the fixing sleeve and the fixing base adopts a snap-fit ​​connection.

[0016] Furthermore, several elastic claws are vertically fixedly installed at the lower edge of the fixed sleeve, and several slots are opened in the positioning hole. The number of slots is the same as that of the elastic claws, and the head of the elastic claw can be inserted into the slot.

[0017] Furthermore, the aforementioned elastic claws are arranged in a circumferential array along the central axis of the fixed sleeve. The elastic claws are made of sheet metal and are stamped to form a metal sheet. They have good elastic recovery performance. The two sides of the elastic claws are inclined surfaces, and the cross-section of the slot is trapezoidal and matches the shape of the head of the elastic claw.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] 1. By using a fixed connection between the steel wire strand and the fixing sleeve, instead of the traditional winding and fixing method, the problem of loosening and displacement of the steel wire caused by long-term vibration and uneven force is effectively avoided. This ensures that the steel wire strand maintains a stable position during operation, reduces structural wear, and extends the overall service life.

[0020] 2. Breaking through the limitations of fixed steel wire parameters in existing processes, this system supports flexible replacement of steel wire strands of different materials, lengths, and thicknesses according to different operational needs. It adapts to diverse working scenarios without replacing the entire roller, significantly improving the equipment's applicability. Furthermore, the number of fixed sleeves and steel wire strands installed on the fixed base can be adjusted as needed. When facing scenarios with different working areas and varying precision requirements, the number of steel wire strands can be flexibly increased or decreased, further broadening the equipment's application scenarios and enhancing its flexibility and targeted use.

[0021] 3. By detachably connecting the fixed sleeve and the fixed seat, when local steel wire strands are worn, broken or damaged, only the damaged single or partial steel wire strands can be replaced, without discarding the entire roller body. This greatly reduces material waste, lowers maintenance and replacement costs, and improves the economic practicality of the equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only for illustration and explanation of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

The components of the embodiments of the present utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. In the embodiments, the components of the embodiments of the present application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present application.

[0032] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection; they can refer to an electrical connection; they can refer to a hydraulic connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0033] See Figure 1-2 As shown, the present invention provides a wire roller, including a fixed base 3, which is cylindrical with a hollow interior. End caps 4, which are disc-shaped, are mounted at both ends of the fixed base 3, and a mounting shaft 5 is mounted at the center of each end cap 4. The other end of the mounting shaft 5 is connected to an external drive device (such as the output shaft of a motor or reducer), transmitting power through a coupling, pulley, or gear to rotate the fixed base 3, thereby achieving surface treatment operations such as dustproofing, polishing, cleaning, and grinding of the workpiece.

[0034] The mounting base 3 has several positioning holes 31, which are arranged in a circular array along the central axis of the mounting base 3. A fixing sleeve 2 is installed at each positioning hole 31, and one fixing sleeve 2 is installed at each positioning hole 31. The fixing sleeve 2 is connected to the positioning hole 31 by means of adhesive bonding, welding or interference fit, so as to ensure the installation stability of the fixing sleeve 2 on the mounting base 3.

[0035] See Figure 3 As shown, each fixed sleeve 2 is equipped with a corresponding steel wire strand 1, which is composed of several steel wires.

[0036] Specifically, the fixing sleeve 2 has a cylindrical structure with a cylindrical hole at its axial center. The inner diameter of this cylindrical hole matches the outer diameter of the steel wire strand 1. This allows the steel wire strand 1, composed of several steel wires, to be inserted and assembled. After the end of the steel wire strand 1, formed by twisting several steel wires together, is inserted into the cylindrical hole of the fixing sleeve 2, it is fixed in the following way:

[0037] Compression fixing: The fixing sleeve 2 is radially compressed to the outer wall of the corresponding cylindrical hole, so that the inner wall of the cylindrical hole undergoes plastic deformation and tightly fits the outer periphery of the steel wire strand 1, and the two are fixed by friction.

[0038] Welding and fixing: The contact area between the outer wall of the fixing sleeve 2 and the steel wire strand 1 is welded using arc welding or laser welding to form a fusion joint, so that the two are rigidly connected as one.

[0039] Adhesive fixing: Apply high-strength structural adhesive (such as epoxy resin adhesive) to the inner wall of the cylindrical hole of the fixing sleeve 2, insert the steel wire strand 1 and wait for the adhesive layer to cure, and fix it through the adhesive force.

[0040] In addition, other suitable fixing methods can be selected according to the strength requirements and disassembly and assembly needs of the actual application scenario. For example, a radial set screw hole can be opened on the side wall of the fixing sleeve 2, and the set screw can be screwed in to tighten the outer circumference of the steel wire strand 1 to achieve fixing; or a pin can be used to pass through the through hole opened in the fixing sleeve 2 and the corresponding steel wire strand 1 to form a rigid fixation, as long as a stable connection between the steel wire strand 1 and the fixing sleeve 2 can be achieved.

[0041] It should be noted that the length of the fixing base 3 can be adjusted according to work requirements. The number of fixing sleeves 2 and wire strands 1 installed on the fixing base 3 can also be adjusted according to needs. The number of wire strands can be flexibly increased or decreased when facing scenarios with different working areas and different precision requirements.

[0042] The above-mentioned fixing methods can be selected according to the strength requirements of the actual use scenario, and all of them can ensure a stable connection between the steel wire strand 1 and the fixing sleeve 2, providing reliable support for the operation of the steel wire strand 1.

[0043] It should be noted that the material, length, and thickness of some of the steel wires in steel wire strand 1 can be changed and adjusted according to the actual working environment requirements, as detailed below:

[0044] Chromium-nickel stainless steel wire can be used to adapt to humid or corrosive environments, high carbon steel wire can be used to meet the high-strength grinding requirements, brass wire can be used to adapt to precision parts processing scenarios, or nylon wire, steel wire mixed with nylon wire and other materials can be used to adapt to special working conditions such as dry cleaning.

[0045] Depending on the depth and range of the work object, the length of the steel wire in steel wire strand 1 can be set to different specifications to ensure sufficient coverage of the workpiece surface or gaps.

[0046] Different diameters of steel wire can be used. Thinner steel wire is suitable for fine polishing, while thicker steel wire is suitable for heavy-duty rust removal, deburring and other high-intensity operations.

[0047] By flexibly adjusting the above multi-dimensional parameters, the steel wire strand 1 can be adapted to different working environments and operational requirements, thereby improving the versatility and practicality of the steel wire roller.

[0048] The aforementioned fixing sleeve 2 is connected to the fixing base 3 by means of adhesive bonding or welding. To facilitate the individual replacement or maintenance of the fixing sleeve 2 and the steel wire strand 1, the following detachable connection structures can also be used for fixing, as detailed below:

[0049] Example 1: The fixing sleeve 2 and the fixing seat 3 are connected by bolts.

[0050] See Figure 4 As shown, a bolt 21 is vertically fixed below the fixing sleeve 2. Correspondingly, the original positioning hole 31 on the fixing seat 3 is replaced with an internal threaded hole 32, and the thread parameters of the internal threaded hole 32 match those of the bolt 21. During assembly, the bolt 21 below the fixing sleeve 2 is aligned with the internal threaded hole 32 of the fixing seat 3. The fixing sleeve 2 is rotated to screw the bolt 21 into the internal threaded hole 32 and tighten it until the bottom end of the fixing sleeve 2 is tightly fitted to the surface of the fixing seat 3, thus achieving a detachable and fixed connection between the two.

[0051] When it is necessary to replace the fixing sleeve 2, simply rotate the fixing sleeve 2 in the opposite direction so that the bolt 21 is unscrewed from the internal threaded hole 32. The old fixing sleeve 2 can then be removed. After replacing the new fixing sleeve 2, tighten it in the same way. The operation is convenient and the connection is stable.

[0052] Example 2: The fixing sleeve 2 and the fixing base 3 adopt a snap-fit ​​connection structure.

[0053] See Figure 5-6 As shown, several elastic claws 22 are vertically fixed at the lower edge of the fixed sleeve 2, and the elastic claws 22 are arranged in a circumferential array along the central axis of the fixed sleeve 2. The elastic claws 22 are made of sheet metal and are stamped to form a metal sheet, which has good elastic recovery performance. The elastic claws 22 are generally "7" shaped, with their heads extending out of the fixed sleeve 2. The two sides of the elastic claws 22 are inclined surfaces, which gradually narrow inward from both sides towards the middle.

[0054] Correspondingly, a number of slots 33 are provided in the positioning hole 31. The number of slots 33 is the same as that of the elastic claw 22. The cross-section of the slots 33 is trapezoidal and matches the shape of the head of the elastic claw 22.

[0055] During assembly, align the fixing sleeve 2 with the positioning hole 31 on the fixing base 3 and press the fixing sleeve 2 into the positioning hole 31. During the pressing process, several elastic claws 22 at the lower end of the fixing sleeve 2 bend inward simultaneously; continue pressing to allow the head of the elastic claw 22 to enter the slot 33. At this time, the elastic claw 22 automatically springs back to its original position and locks into the slot 33, achieving rapid fixation between the wire seat 11 and the fixing sleeve 2. When replacing the worn wire strand 1, rotate the fixing sleeve 2 to make the inclined surface of the elastic claw 22 press against the side of the slot 33, forcing the elastic claw 22 to bend inward and disengage from the slot 33. Then, pull the fixing sleeve 2 out of the positioning hole 31 of the fixing base 3 to complete the disassembly.

[0056] When the steel wire strand 1 wears out due to long-term use, it is not necessary to discard and replace the entire steel wire roller. Only the worn single or part of the steel wire strand 1 needs to be targeted. The old steel wire strand 1 can be removed through the corresponding detachable connection structure, and the new steel wire strand 1 can be installed and fixed through the same structure. This avoids the waste of resources caused by replacing the whole thing and reduces maintenance time and cost.

[0057] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be primarily defined by the scope of the claims.
