Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a wire cutting machine, and more particularly to a straightener and a wire cutting machine for wire production. Background Technology

[0002] After injection molding, cables (conductors) need to be wound up to a predetermined length. When a certain length is wound up, the wire is cut. However, currently, there is a lack of a shaping process for the cable during winding. To keep the wire straight, a large tensile force is required to initially shape the cable during winding; however, this shaping will cause the cable to stretch to a certain extent, affecting the quality of the cable. To address this, a patent has been invented entitled "A Wire Cutting Machine" (Chinese Patent No.: CN201810935149.7). It includes a wire cutting mechanism and a wire feeding mechanism. The wire feeding mechanism includes several sets of feeding wheels and an encoder assembly for measuring the wire feeding length. It also includes a vertical shaping assembly and a horizontal shaping assembly. The vertical shaping assembly includes a vertical fixing plate with multiple vertically arranged vertical adjustment grooves, each connected to a longitudinal shaping wheel. Two adjacent longitudinal shaping wheels are located on opposite sides of the wire feeding track. The horizontal shaping assembly includes a horizontal fixing plate with multiple horizontally arranged horizontal adjustment grooves, each connected to a horizontal shaping wheel. Two adjacent longitudinal shaping wheels are located on opposite sides of the wire feeding track. This invention, by setting up vertical and horizontal shaping assemblies, allows the cable to be shaped in two directions during transport, facilitating subsequent wire cutting.

[0003] The shaping component in this invention utilizes a shaping wheel system to force the wire to bend along a specific path. The wire passes sequentially through multiple staggered shaping wheel sets, enduring repeated bending in alternating directions. Each bend induces plastic deformation in a localized area, gradually eliminating the original bending deformation and redistributing residual stress, ultimately making the entire wire fiber length tend to be uniform, achieving a straight state. Typically, the shaping... The positions of the shaping wheels in the shaping wheel assembly all need to be adjusted, and the positions of the shaping wheels are different for different wire types. However, the shaping component in this invention does not disclose a specific structure for adjusting the position of the shaping wheels, thus lacking good versatility and being inconvenient for maintenance and adjustment. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention provides a wire straightener for wire production, which solves the problem that the wire straightening device on the wire cutting machine in the prior art is inconvenient to adjust and has poor versatility.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical problems of this utility model are mainly solved by the following technical solution: A straightener for wire production includes a horizontal fixed plate, a vertical fixed plate, a horizontal straightening wheel, and a longitudinal straightening wheel. The horizontal fixed plate and the vertical fixed plate are fixed to each other. The horizontal fixed plate is provided with a plurality of horizontal sliding grooves arranged in an array along its length direction. The vertical fixed plate is provided with a plurality of vertical sliding grooves arranged in an array along its length direction. Sliding seats are slidably fitted in both types of sliding grooves. A plurality of adjusting bolts, each corresponding to a sliding seat, are screwed onto the horizontal fixed plate and the vertical fixed plate. Elastic elements that abut against the sliding seats are provided in the horizontal and vertical sliding grooves. A shaft is vertically fixed on the sliding seat. The horizontal straightening wheel is rotatably mounted on the shaft located on the horizontal fixed plate. The vertical straightening wheel is rotatably mounted on the shaft located on the vertical fixed plate. A wire groove is provided on the circumferential side wall of the straightening wheel. The position of each sliding seat can be finely adjusted by rotating the adjusting bolts, thereby adjusting the position of the straightening wheel.

[0006] The conductor flows in from the front end of the vertical fixing plate and exits from the rear end of the horizontal fixing plate. The vertical straightening wheels are vertically distributed, and adjacent vertical straightening wheels are located on the upper and lower sides of the conductor. After the conductor passes through the vertical straightening wheels, the conductor is straightened in the vertical direction. Similarly, the horizontal straightening wheels are horizontally distributed, and adjacent horizontal straightening wheels are located on the left and right sides of the conductor. After the conductor passes through the horizontal straightening wheels, the conductor is straightened in the horizontal direction.

[0007] This invention constrains the movement direction of the sliding seat by setting horizontal / vertical sliding grooves, and then fine-tunes the position of the sliding seat within the grooves by setting adjusting bolts. Simultaneously, an elastic element adaptively restricts the position of the sliding seat in another direction, thereby achieving rapid adjustment of the sliding seat. The force applied to the sliding seat by the elastic element is transmitted to the adjusting bolt, thus keeping the adjusting bolt under constant pressure and creating a locking effect to prevent loosening due to equipment vibration. This allows for quick and fine-tuning of the straightening roller's position, thereby fine-tuning the straightening effect. When the conductor needs to be replaced, a matching straightening roller can be replaced according to the change in conductor diameter.

[0008] Furthermore, the sliding seat comprises a sliding body, a locking block, and a locking bolt. The sliding body is provided with a key body that matches the slide groove and a limiting part. The locking bolt passes through the locking block and is screwed to the bottom of the key body. Through the above technical solution, the sliding seat can be fixed or moved relative to the horizontal / vertical slide groove by adjusting the locking bolt. When the sliding seat needs adjustment, the locking bolt can be loosened. After the sliding seat is adjusted, the locking bolt needs to be tightened to completely fix the sliding seat relative to the horizontal / vertical slide groove.

[0009] Furthermore, an elastic block is held between the key body and the locking block. When the sliding seat is fully locked, the elastic block is in a compressed state, so that the locking bolt is also under pressure at all times, thereby producing a certain locking effect and preventing loosening due to equipment vibration.

[0010] This utility model also provides a wire cutting machine, including a wire cutting mechanism and a wire feeding mechanism. The wire feeding mechanism consists of several sets of wire feeding wheels and an encoder assembly for counting the wire feeding length. It also includes a wire straightening device, which is the above-mentioned straightener for conductor production.

[0011] Therefore, this utility model has the following characteristics compared with the prior art: 1. The position of each sliding seat can be finely adjusted by adjusting the bolts, and the adjustment method is relatively convenient; 2. The sliding seat can be fixed or moved relative to the horizontal slide groove / vertical slide groove by adjusting the locking bolts, thus ensuring that the sliding seat is completely fixed after the position is adjusted.

[0013] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0014] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0015] Example 1: As shown in Figures 1, 2, and 3, a straightener for conductor production includes a horizontal fixing plate 10, a vertical fixing plate 20, and a horizontal straightening wheel 30. The system includes a longitudinal straightening wheel 40, a horizontal fixed plate, and a vertical fixed plate, all bolted together. The horizontal fixed plate has four horizontal grooves 11 arranged along its length, and the vertical fixed plate has four vertical grooves 21 arranged along its length. Sliding seats 50 are slidably fitted within both grooves. Eight adjusting bolts 60, each corresponding to a sliding seat, are screwed onto both the horizontal and vertical fixed plates. Elastic elements 70, which abut against the sliding seats, are located within the horizontal and vertical grooves. These elastic elements can be springs or elastic colloids. A shaft 80 is vertically fixed to the sliding seat. A horizontal straightening wheel is rotatably mounted on the shaft on the horizontal fixed plate, and a vertical straightening wheel is rotatably mounted on the shaft on the vertical fixed plate. Grooves are provided on the circumferential sidewalls of the straightening wheels. By balancing the lengths of the shafts on the horizontal and vertical fixed plates, the lines defined by the horizontal and longitudinal straightening wheels are approximately aligned horizontally. The position of each sliding seat can be finely adjusted by rotating the adjusting bolts, thereby adjusting the position of the straightening wheels.

[0016] The conductor enters from the front end of the vertical fixing plate and exits from the rear end of the horizontal fixing plate. The vertical straightening wheels are vertically distributed, with adjacent vertical straightening wheels located above and below the conductor. After passing through the vertical straightening wheels, the conductor is straightened in the vertical direction. Similarly, the horizontal straightening wheels are horizontally distributed, with adjacent horizontal straightening wheels located to the left and right of the conductor. After passing through the horizontal straightening wheels, the conductor is straightened in the horizontal direction. The path of the conductor within the straightening wheel assembly is a slightly wavy line.

[0017] This embodiment constrains the movement direction of the sliding seat by setting horizontal / vertical slide grooves, and then fine-tunes the position of the sliding seat in the slide groove by setting adjusting bolts. At the same time, the elastic element is used to adaptively restrict the position of the sliding seat in another direction, thereby realizing the rapid adjustment of the sliding seat. Furthermore, the force applied to the sliding seat by the elastic element is transmitted to the adjusting bolt, so that the adjusting bolt is always under pressure, thereby producing a certain locking effect and preventing loosening due to equipment vibration.

[0018] See Figure 4 The sliding seat consists of a sliding body 51, a locking block 52, and a locking bolt 53. The sliding body is provided with a key body 511 that matches the slide groove and a limiting part 512. The locking bolt passes through the locking block and is screwed to the bottom of the key body. With the above technical solution, the sliding seat can be fixed or moved relative to the horizontal slide groove / vertical slide groove by adjusting the locking bolt. When the sliding seat needs to be adjusted, the locking bolt can be loosened. After the sliding seat is adjusted, the locking bolt needs to be tightened to make the sliding seat completely fixed relative to the horizontal slide groove / vertical slide groove.

[0019] See Figure 4 An elastic block 54 is held between the key body and the locking block. When the sliding seat is fully locked, the elastic block is in a compressed state, so that the locking bolt is always under pressure, thereby producing a certain locking effect and preventing the equipment from loosening due to vibration.

[0020] As shown in Figure 1, the horizontal fixing plate has a rear end plate 12 at its rear end and a front end plate 22 at its front end. The rear end plate and the front end plate have two coaxial wire-passing sleeves 90, which are used to limit the input and output directions of the wires.

[0021] This embodiment also discloses a wire cutting machine, including a wire cutting mechanism and a wire feeding mechanism. It consists of several sets of wire feeding rollers and an encoder assembly for counting the wire feeding length, and also includes a wire straightening device, which is the aforementioned wire production straightener. Since the aforementioned wire production straightener has the above-mentioned technical effects, the wire cutting machine with this wire straightening device also has the same technical effects. Furthermore, since the wire cutting mechanism and wire feeding mechanism are existing technologies, they will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0022] This invention can be modified in many ways, as will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and such modifications are not considered to depart from the scope of this invention. All such modifications that are obvious to those skilled in the art are included within the scope of these claims.
