[0011] Please also refer to Figures 1 to 3This invention provides a wire separation device 100, which is disposed at one end of a roller conveyor track 10 and is suitable for automated operation environments for wire conveying and separation. The roller conveyor track 10 can be a common roller-type conveyor device, equipped with multiple sets of rollers 11 to support and convey the wire frame 30 and the wire wound around it. The wire separation device 100 includes: a separation zone 20, located at the end of the roller conveyor track 10, having a circular area 21 for accommodating the wire frame 30. The size of the circular area 21 is designed to be larger than the wire frame 30 body to ensure that the wire frame 30 can enter smoothly and is not interfered with during subsequent lifting operations. Telescopic devices are provided on both sides of the separation zone 20 as support structures after wire separation. A lifting platform 40, disposed within the circular area 21, is a platform that can be lifted and rotated. The lifting platform 40 may have a fixed structure (not shown) that corresponds to and locks one of the bases of the wire frame 30 to ensure that it does not slide or shift during lifting or rotation. The lifting platform 40 can be driven by a servo mechanism, hydraulic or electric lifting device, and its vertical height and angle can be controlled during the operation process to accommodate the characteristics of different specifications of wire frames and wires. A plurality of telescopic rods 50 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the separation zone 20 and can extend inwards into the separation zone 20. Each telescopic rod 50 has a conveying roller 51 at its front end to support the wires on the wire frame. The telescopic rod 50 can be a pneumatic, hydraulic, or electric motor-driven telescopic structure, and its position and height can be adjusted to accommodate wires of different diameters and weights. After the wire frame 30 is conveyed to the separation zone 20 by the roller conveyor track 10, its bottom is placed on the lifting platform 40. The lifting platform 40 first performs alignment and locking actions to fix the wire frame 30 on the platform. Subsequently, the telescopic rods 50 extend inwards, and the conveying rollers 51 are located below the wire winding path to receive and support the wires. The lifting platform 40 then descends, causing the wire rack 30 to drop from the circular area 21 and separate from the wire. Since the wire is still wound around the conveyor roller 51, it remains suspended and will not fall or become entangled. At this time, the conveyor roller 51 on the telescopic rod 50 can operate further, stably conveying the suspended wire to the next workstation for collection or processing.

[0012] In one embodiment of this case, the wire separation device 100 is described. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 and Figure 3The roller conveyor 10 consists of multiple sets of rollers 11 arranged in series, with appropriate spacing between each set to form a continuous conveying surface capable of carrying the wire frame 30 and the wire for forward movement. To ensure the overall conveying operation can adapt to different production cycles, the device is further equipped with a speed control function. Users can adjust the roller conveying speed via a control panel, PLC program, or other control interfaces. The speed control can automatically or manually adjust the speed according to production line load, wire weight, or equipment integration requirements to prevent wire swaying or falling off due to excessive speed. It can also decelerate before entering the separation zone 20 to improve positioning accuracy.

[0013] The wire separation device 100 described in one embodiment of the present invention is described in [reference needed]. Figure 4 Furthermore, each roller 11 is a rotatable structure and connected to a conveyor motor 60. The conveyor motor 60 can share a main drive shaft or drive each roller independently, ensuring that the roller 11 rotates evenly upon startup, thereby pushing the wire frame 30 towards the separation zone 20. This configuration helps improve conveying stability and reduces wire frame swaying or bouncing. The conveyor motor 60 has the aforementioned speed control function, performing start / stop, acceleration / deceleration, or pause actions.

[0014] In one embodiment of this invention, the wire separation device 100, wherein the lifting platform 40 is further provided with a locking mechanism (not shown), which can be a mechanical buckle, a pneumatic gripper, or an electric positioning device. Its design allows for automatic sensing and alignment with the contour structure (such as grooves, flanges, or positioning holes) of the bottom of the wire frame 30, ensuring accurate positioning and fixation. When the wire frame 30 enters the separation area 20 and falls onto the lifting platform 40, the locking procedure is initiated to ensure that the wire frame 30 does not shift due to gravity or external forces during subsequent lifting and rotation.

[0015] In one embodiment of this case, the wire separation device 100 is described. Please refer to 1 to 2. Figure 3 To prevent the wire from being scratched or worn during transport or suspension, the outer surfaces of the rollers 11 on the roller transport track 10 and the transport rollers 51 on the telescopic rod 50 are all covered with a scratch-resistant coating material. This coating can be rubber, polyurethane (PU), silicone, or other elastic and wear-resistant materials. This material not only cushions the impact during rolling contact but also provides a higher coefficient of friction, ensuring stable and non-slip transport while effectively protecting the wire surface from scratches. It is suitable for transporting high-quality or surface-sensitive conductors, coated wires, or special-purpose wires.

[0016] In one embodiment of this invention, the wire separation device 100 includes a telescopic rod 50 that is retractable and capable of automatically moving inward or outward. In this embodiment, the telescopic rod can be driven in one of two ways: a pneumatic drive structure, where compressed air controls a cylinder to extend the rod; a hydraulic drive structure, where compressed hydraulic oil controls a cylinder to extend the rod; and an electric drive structure, where a servo motor or stepper motor combined with components such as ball screws and slide rails achieves precision drive. These three structures can be flexibly selected based on the characteristics of the production line equipment and budget, and are synchronized with the overall system through a control module to ensure stable support and smooth transport during the separation process.

[0017] In one embodiment of this invention, the wire separation device 100 includes a lifting platform 40 that, in addition to basic lifting functions, further allows for adjustment of lifting height and rotation angle. The platform can be equipped with a multi-axis servo system for vertical lifting control, or with a rotary bearing and motor structure to achieve 360-degree rotation or segmented positioning rotation. This design allows for adjustment based on different wire rack sizes, heights, or wire winding angles, thereby improving the accuracy and operational flexibility of the separation action.

[0018] In one embodiment of this invention, the wire separation device 100, in addition to having lateral telescopic capability, features a telescopic rod 50 designed for height adjustment. The height adjustment mechanism can be achieved through the following methods: a multi-stage pneumatic or electric lifting device: using a dual-axis or multi-stage telescopic rod structure, allowing the rod to move horizontally and vertically; or a slide rail and screw lifting module: a vertical slide rail and screw are installed at a fixed end, driven by a servo motor to move vertically and precisely control the height of the telescopic rod 50.

[0019] In one embodiment of this invention, the wire separation device 100, to enable automated judgment of the wire separation operation, includes a set of sensing modules 70 on one side of the separation zone 20, electrically connected to the conveyor motor 60. The sensing module 70 may include the following components: optical sensing; capacitive or ultrasonic sensors for detecting the presence of wire in a specific area; and an image recognition module for determining the position or shape of the wire. When the lifting platform 40 descends, the sensing module 70 initiates a detection program to determine whether the wire has successfully detached from the wire rack 30 and is stably suspended above the telescopic rod 50. If the detection result indicates unsuccessful separation, the conveyor motor 60 stops operating.

[0020] In one embodiment of this case, the wire separation device 100, in order to improve safety and equipment protection capabilities, further integrates a set of warning components 71 in the sensing module 70, which can be any or a combination of the following: an audible and visual alarm (buzzer + red light flashing device); abnormal prompt messages on the human-machine interface; and an automatic control interruption mechanism: such as the programmable logic controller outputting an emergency stop signal to directly cut off the power of the roller conveyor motor 60 or stop the overall operation process.

[0021] Thus, the wire separation device of this utility model has been fully and clearly described above. However, it must be emphasized that the above detailed description is a specific description of feasible embodiments of this utility model, but the embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the claims of this utility model. All equivalent implementations or modifications that do not depart from the spirit of the technology of this utility model should be included in the scope of the claims of this application.
