Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of wire feeding technology of I-beam reels, and in particular relates to a constant tension passive wire feeding device for I-beam reels. Background Technology

[0002] In the subsequent processing of steel wire rope (such as stranding, cabling, braiding, and winding), it is usually necessary to release the semi-finished wire wound on the I-beam reel in a constant and stable manner. Traditional wire release methods have many drawbacks: Gravity-driven cable laying: The I-beam reel is placed on a simple support and rotates by the tension of the cable; Problem: The tension fluctuates drastically as the diameter of the spool decreases (moment of inertia decreases). It is prone to loosening at startup and shaking and breaking at high speeds. The tension cannot be controlled, which seriously affects the uniformity and quality of the product.

[0003] 2. Mechanical brake line laying: Install friction brake pads (such as magnetic powder brakes, pneumatic brakes, etc.) on the I-beam reel shaft, and adjust the braking force manually or mechanically. Problem: The braking force is fixed and cannot respond to dynamic changes during the wire laying process. Frequent manual intervention and adjustment are still required to maintain a roughly constant tension. The degree of automation is low and it relies heavily on the operator's experience.

[0004] 3. Active servo feeding: The servo motor drives the I-beam reel to rotate in reverse. The tension is detected by the sensor and the motor torque is adjusted in real time. Advantages: precise control. Disadvantages: complex system, high cost, high energy consumption, high maintenance requirements. It is not suitable for many medium and low-cost conventional production scenarios.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a passive wire feeding device that is simple in structure, low in cost, requires no external power, and can automatically maintain a relatively constant tension. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a constant tension passive wire feeding device for H-beam reels. The upper and lower guide rollers passively bear the tension during the wire feeding process, which is transmitted to the brake band through the swing arm. The pressure on the wire reel workpiece provided by the chain provides braking force, and the initial working tension is set by the tension spring. It relies entirely on the linkage response of the mechanical structure and does not require an external power source, air source or control system. It can automatically stabilize the wire feeding tension within the preset range, with extremely high reliability, low failure rate, and is suitable for harsh industrial environments, achieving true passive constant tension control.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: This utility model is a constant tension passive wire feeding device for H-beam reels, including a mounting base, a mandrel, and a tension swing arm mechanism; The mandrel is mounted on the front side of the mounting base, and a wire reel workpiece is assembled on the mandrel. The front end of the mandrel is provided with a clamping screw head that presses against the outer end of the wire reel workpiece. A crossbar and a rotating shaft are fixed to the bottom edge of the mounting base and to the areas on both sides of the coil workpiece. The rotating shaft is distributed parallel to the spindle. A connecting seat is provided above the front side of the mounting base, and the connecting seat is located directly above the crossbar. The tension swing arm mechanism includes a swing arm body, a tension spring, and a brake band; The swing arm body is a strip plate. The swing arm body is fitted to the front side of the mounting base. A sleeve that is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft is fixed to one side of the bottom end of the swing arm body. A vertical rod is fixed to the bottom end of the swing arm body. A tension spring is fixed between the vertical rod and the horizontal rod. The tension spring is distributed perpendicularly to the swing arm body. An upper guide roller and a lower guide roller are provided on the front side of the top end of the swing arm body. The brake band includes a chain, with both ends of the chain fixed to the connecting seat and the middle of the swing arm body, respectively. The chain surrounds half of the side plate of the wire reel workpiece. Several brake seats are fixed on the chain. The brake seats are provided with slots that sit on the outer edge of the side plate of the wire reel workpiece. Brake pads are provided in the slots. A side guide roller is fixed on the front side of the mounting base near the connecting base. The side guide roller is spaced opposite to the upper guide roller and the lower guide roller, and the side guide roller, the upper guide roller and the lower guide roller form an S-shaped winding frame.

[0008] Furthermore, a rotating base is fixed at the midpoint of the front side of the mounting base, and a turntable is provided at one end of the spindle. The turntable is located inside the rotating base and a bearing is provided between them. A positioning pin is provided on the turntable.

[0009] Furthermore, the side plate of the coil workpiece is provided with a positioning groove, the positioning pin is positioned in the positioning groove, and the thickness of the side plate of the coil workpiece is greater than the length of the positioning pin.

[0010] Furthermore, a wire outlet frame is fixed on the upper part of the mounting base near the side guide roller. The wire outlet frame includes a column parallel to the side guide roller, a wire outlet wheel is fixed on the column, and a wire pressing rod that fits against the edge of the wire outlet wheel is fixed on the column.

[0011] Furthermore, the connecting seat is provided with a strip groove, and the mounting seat is provided with a clamping screw. The connecting seat is fixed to the mounting seat by the strip groove and the clamping screw, and the clamping screw passes through the strip groove.

[0012] Furthermore, the side guide roller, upper guide roller, and lower guide roller all include a roller body with a length consistent with the workpiece on the wire spool. One end of the roller body is rotatably connected to a roller seat, and the other end of the roller body is provided with an anti-detachment head.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. This utility model passively bears the tension during the wire feeding process through the upper and lower guide rollers at the top of the swing arm body, and transmits it to the brake band through the swing arm body. The pressure on the wire reel workpiece provided by the chain provides braking force, and the initial working tension is set by the tension spring. It relies entirely on the linkage response of the mechanical structure, without the need for external power supply, air source or control system, and can automatically stabilize the wire feeding tension within the preset range. It has extremely high reliability, low failure rate, is suitable for harsh industrial environments, and achieves true passive constant tension control.

[0014] 2. This utility model uses an S-shaped winding frame composed of an upper guide roller, a lower guide roller, and a side guide roller. This increases the wrap angle, making the tension feedback more sensitive. It can effectively suppress tension disturbances caused by changes in the diameter of the wire spool and speed fluctuations, ensuring a smooth wire feeding process and preventing the wire from shaking. This greatly improves the quality of the wire rope products produced in subsequent processes.

[0015] 3. The main components of this utility model are machined parts (seat, shaft, arm, roller) and standard parts (spring, bearing, chain), without precision electrical or hydraulic components, which makes the manufacturing cost of the device much lower than that of an active servo system. Moreover, daily maintenance only requires checking worn parts (such as brake seats) and lubricating rotating parts, making maintenance simple and extremely low cost.

[0016] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description
