Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of data cable processing, and in particular to an automatic cable positioning device for data cable production. Background Technology
[0002] Automated cable routing is an automated device used in the production of data cables. It primarily organizes, arranges, and secures cables or wire harnesses according to specific layout requirements. This equipment precisely controls the direction, spacing, and position of the wire harnesses to ensure that each wire or cable is neatly and orderly arranged, facilitating subsequent processing, soldering, and sheathing. Automated cable routing not only improves production efficiency and reduces human error but also ensures the quality and consistency of data cable products.
[0003] Automated cable routing and positioning in data cable production refers to the automatic adjustment and fixation of the position and orientation of cables or wire harnesses in automated cable routing equipment using precise control systems and sensors. Through the positioning system, the equipment can identify and correct the cable position in real time, ensuring that each wire is arranged along a predetermined trajectory during the routing process. This not only improves the accuracy and efficiency of cable routing but also avoids production problems caused by cable misalignment or loosening, thereby ensuring the consistency and quality of data cable products.
[0004] Existing ribbon cable fixtures use fixed-size cable tray holes to limit the data cable's position. One of the main drawbacks of this method is its inability to quickly adjust to different wire diameters. In actual production, different cables or data cables have different wire diameters. Using a fixed-diameter ribbon cable fixture leads to poor adaptability and makes it difficult to meet diverse product requirements. Each time the wire diameter is changed, the fixture needs to be manually changed or the hole diameter adjusted. This not only wastes a lot of time but also increases the complexity of manual operation and the risk of errors, reducing production efficiency.
[0005] Therefore, an automatic cable positioning device for data cable production is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0006] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic cable positioning device for data cable production, which has the advantages of adapting to various wire diameters and being able to stably clamp and limit the data cable.
[0007] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0008] An automatic cable positioning device for data cable production includes a positioning shaft;
[0009] A positioning disk is sleeved through the outside of the positioning shaft, and several sets of data line limiting fixtures are arranged around the center of one side of the positioning disk.
[0010] The data cable limiting fixture includes a push seat that is slidably mounted on a positioning disk. A limiting shaft is vertically mounted on the upper surface of the push seat. Two adjusting arms are rotatably mounted on the outside of the push seat. Each of the two adjusting arms has a sliding groove. The two sliding grooves are arranged in an X-shape and the limiting shaft rotates at the intersection of the two sliding grooves.
[0011] The ends of the two adjusting arms are integrally connected to clamping arms.
[0012] Furthermore, the clamping arm and the adjusting arm are arranged in an L-shape; the two clamping arms extend in parallel and are provided with clamping grooves on their opposite sides, and anti-slip textures are provided in the clamping grooves.
[0013] Furthermore, the data line limiting fixture also includes two positioning seats disposed on the upper end face of the positioning disk, and a small lead screw is rotatably disposed between the two positioning seats. The small lead screw passes through the push seat and engages with the push seat.
[0014] Furthermore, one end of the small lead screw passes through one of the positioning seats and extends to be connected to a rotating handle.
[0015] Furthermore, the data cable limiting fixture also includes a limiting seat disposed on the positioning plate, the limiting seat having a U-shaped inner groove, each inner groove corresponding to one of the wire passage slots.
[0016] Furthermore, both ends of the positioning shaft are fixedly equipped with cable laying machine positioning rings.
[0017] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. This device achieves automatic adjustment of the data cable clamping spacing through a linkage mechanism consisting of a push seat, a limiting shaft, adjusting arms, and X-shaped cross grooves. When the operator rotates the handle to drive the small lead screw, the push seat slides along the positioning plate, and the limiting shaft rotates at the intersection of the two grooves, forcing the two adjusting arms to open or close synchronously, thereby precisely adjusting the clamping grooves on the clamping arms. This mechanical linkage design eliminates the need for a complex electrical control system, adapting to data cables of different diameters with just a simple rotation operation, significantly improving the flexibility and changeover efficiency of the production line. Simultaneously, the anti-slip texture within the clamping grooves, combined with the parallel arrangement of the L-shaped clamping arms, ensures stable clamping of the data cable during cable routing, preventing routing deviations caused by cable slippage or loosening, and significantly improving product quality consistency and production process reliability.

[0025] First embodiment;
[0026] Reference Figure 1-3 As shown, an automatic cable positioning device for data cable production is provided in a preferred embodiment of this utility model, including a positioning shaft 1;
[0027] A positioning disk 3 is sleeved through the outside of the positioning shaft 1, and several sets of data line limiting fixtures 5 are arranged around the center of one side of the positioning disk 3.
[0028] The data cable limiting fixture 5 includes a push seat 55 that is slidably mounted on the positioning disk 3. A limiting shaft 56 is vertically mounted on the upper surface of the push seat 55. Two adjusting arms 57 are rotatably mounted on the outside of the push seat 55. Each of the two adjusting arms 57 has a slide groove 58. The two slide grooves 58 are arranged in an X-shape and the limiting shaft 56 rotates at the intersection of the two slide grooves 58.
[0029] The ends of the two adjusting arms 57 are integrally connected to clamping arms 59.
[0030] In this embodiment, several sets of data cable limiting fixtures 5 are distributed around the center of one side of the positioning disk 3. The push seat 55 can slide on the positioning disk 3, and a limiting shaft 56 is vertically arranged on the upper surface of the push seat 55 as a rotation support point. Two adjusting arms 57 are rotatably arranged on the outside of the push seat 55. Each of these two adjusting arms 57 has a groove 58, which are arranged in an X-shape. The limiting shaft 56 rotates precisely at the intersection of the two grooves 58, forming a clever linkage mechanism. Through this X-shaped intersecting groove design, when the push seat 55 slides along the positioning disk 3, the two adjusting arms 57 will rotate relative to each other around the limiting shaft 56, thereby automatically adjusting the distance between the clamping arms 59 connected to the ends of the adjusting arms 57. This design allows for rapid adjustment of the clamping distance according to the requirements of data cables of different diameters.
[0031] Second embodiment;
[0032] Reference Figure 3 As shown, the clamping arm 59 and the adjusting arm 57 are arranged in an L-shape; the two clamping arms 59 extend in parallel and are provided with clamping grooves 510 on their opposite sides, and anti-slip textures 511 are provided in the clamping grooves 510.
[0033] In this embodiment, the clamping arm 59 and the adjusting arm 57 are arranged in an L-shape. This L-shaped structure allows the clamping arm 59 to better limit and support the data cable vertically. The two clamping arms 59 extend outward and are arranged parallel to each other, ensuring that the data cable remains straight between the two clamping arms 59. To enhance the clamping stability of the data cable, clamping grooves 510 are respectively provided on the opposite sides of the two clamping arms 59. The data cable can be embedded in the clamping grooves 510 to prevent positional displacement during cable arrangement. More importantly, anti-slip textures 511 are also provided in the clamping grooves 510. These anti-slip textures 511 can increase the friction between the clamping arm 59 and the data cable, preventing the data cable from slipping due to vibration or tension changes during production, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of the data cable arrangement.
[0034] Third embodiment;
[0035] Reference Figure 3 As shown, the data cable limiting fixture 5 also includes two positioning seats 52 disposed on the upper surface of the positioning disk 3. A small lead screw 53 is rotatably disposed between the two positioning seats 52. The small lead screw 53 passes through the push seat 55 and is engaged with the push seat 55.
[0036] In this embodiment, a small lead screw 53 is rotatably mounted between the two positioning seats 52. The small lead screw 53, with a forward and reverse thread design or a one-way thread and nut, passes through the push seat 55 and forms a meshing connection with it. By rotating the small lead screw 53, the helical motion of the thread is converted into a linear sliding motion of the push seat 55 along the surface of the positioning disk 3. Since the limiting shaft 56 on the push seat 55 is connected to the X-shaped cross grooves 58 of the two adjusting arms 57, the sliding of the push seat 55 drives the two adjusting arms 57 to open and close around the limiting shaft 56 as the fulcrum, thereby causing a precise change in the distance between the clamping arms 59. This enables rapid adaptation and adjustment for data cables of different diameters. The entire adjustment process is precise, controllable, and easy to operate.
[0037] Fourth embodiment;
[0038] Reference Figure 3 As shown, one end of the small lead screw 53 passes through one of the positioning seats 52 and extends to be connected to a rotating handle 54.
[0039] In this embodiment, one end of the small lead screw 53 passes through one of the positioning seats 52 and extends outward to be connected to a rotating handle 54. The operator can rotate the small lead screw 53 by holding the rotating handle 54.
[0040] Fifth embodiment;
[0041] Reference Figure 3 As shown, the data cable limiting fixture 5 also includes a limiting seat 51 set on the positioning plate 3. The limiting seat 51 has a U-shaped inner groove 501, and each inner groove 501 is respectively set to correspond to one of the wire passing grooves 4.
[0042] In this embodiment, the limiting seat 51 has a U-shaped inner groove 501, which provides initial guidance and limiting space for the data cable. Each inner groove 501 corresponds to one of the wire guide slots 4, forming a multi-level positioning system. When the data cable enters the area of the data cable limiting fixture 5, it is first guided into the U-shaped inner groove 501, then precisely positioned into the wire guide slot 4, and finally clamped and fixed by the clamping arm 59. This multi-level positioning design not only improves the convenience of data cable threading and reduces the difficulty of operation, but also effectively prevents the data cable from shifting or tangling before entering the clamping area, ensuring that each data cable can accurately reach the designated position, thereby ensuring the stability and consistency of the entire cable routing process.
[0043] Sixth embodiment;
[0044] Reference Figure 1 As shown, both ends of the positioning shaft 1 are fixedly equipped with cable laying machine positioning rings 2.
[0045] In this embodiment, both ends of the positioning shaft 1 are fixedly equipped with cable laying machine positioning rings 2. These two positioning rings 2 serve as standardized interface components, enabling precise cooperation with the cable laying machine's fixing device, thus achieving rapid installation and accurate positioning of the entire automatic cable laying positioning device on the cable laying machine. The positioning rings 2 ensure the coaxiality and positional accuracy of the positioning shaft 1 on the cable laying machine, avoiding inaccurate cable laying due to installation deviations. Simultaneously, the positioning rings 2 facilitate quick disassembly and replacement of the device. When equipment maintenance or replacement of positioning discs 3 of different specifications is required, operators only need to disassemble the positioning rings 2, eliminating the need for complex adjustments to the entire cable laying machine, greatly improving equipment maintenance efficiency and operational flexibility.
[0046] Specific implementation process
[0047] Step 1: First, fix the positioning shaft 1 to the automatic wiring machine using the positioning rings 2 at both ends to ensure the stability of the entire device. Then, place the positioning plate 3 around the positioning shaft 1 and adjust its position according to production requirements. The data cable limiting fixture 5 is slidably mounted on the positioning plate 3 via the push seat 55, and its position is initially fixed by the inner groove 501 on the limiting seat 51 corresponding to the wire guide groove 4. The operator adjusts the small lead screw 53 by rotating the handle 54, driving the push seat 55 to move, thereby initially setting the initial spacing of the clamping arms 59.
[0048] Step 2: Place the data cable to be arranged between the two clamping arms 59, with its end embedded in the clamping groove 510. The anti-slip texture 511 provides initial fixation. Further adjust the small lead screw 53 by rotating the handle 54, pushing the seat 55 to slide along the positioning plate 3, thereby moving the limiting shaft 56. Since the limiting shaft 56 rotates at the intersection of the slide grooves 58 of the two adjusting arms 57, its movement forces the two adjusting arms 57 to rotate around the axis, thereby causing the clamping arms 59 to open or close synchronously. This X-shaped cross slide groove structure enables precise adjustment of the spacing of the clamping grooves 510, adapting to data cables of different diameters.
[0049] Step 3: After the data cable is clamped, the automatic cable laying device starts. The positioning plate 3 is fixed laterally along the positioning axis 1 to ensure that the data cable limiting fixture 5 performs a smooth cable laying operation. The clamping groove 510 always maintains uniform limiting of the data cable to prevent displacement or loosening. If other fixtures need to be adjusted, the small lead screw 53 can be repeatedly operated for quick adjustment. Throughout the process, the limiting seat 51 and the inner groove 501 provide auxiliary support to ensure the stability of the fixture. After the cable laying is completed, the handle 54 is rotated in the opposite direction to release the data cable, making it easy to remove the finished product.
