Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wire harnesses, and more specifically, to a wire cutting machine for wire harness processing. Background Technology
[0002] Automotive wiring harnesses are the main network of automotive circuits; without wiring harnesses, there would be no automotive circuits. A wiring harness is an assembly that connects circuits by crimping copper contact terminals (connectors) to wires and cables, then molding an insulator or adding an outer metal shell, and finally bundling the wires together.
[0003] During the production of automotive wiring harnesses, some harnesses may have defects that render them unusable. However, since both ends of these harnesses have already been assembled with plastic terminals, direct disassembly and recycling are relatively troublesome. In existing technologies, they are generally cut in half, so that at least half can be directly recycled and reused. In existing technologies, workers usually cut the harnesses by manually folding them in half. Cutting relatively short harnesses is relatively easy, but cutting longer ones is very troublesome.
[0004] There are currently no effective solutions to the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content

[0018] The utility model will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments: Please see Figures 1 to 9 According to an embodiment of the present invention, a wire cutting machine for wire harness processing includes a horizontally arranged horizontal plate 1. Support legs 2 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the bottom of the horizontal plate 1, and support feet 3 are fixedly installed at the bottom ends of the support legs 2. A wire clamp 4 is fixedly installed in the middle of the top of the horizontal plate 1 near one end. A cutting mechanism 5 is fixedly installed in the middle of the top of the horizontal plate 1 away from the wire clamp 4. A wire support mechanism 6 is installed on the top of the horizontal plate 1 between the wire clamp 4 and the cutting mechanism 5. The two ends of the wire harness to be cut are fixed by the wire clamp 4 and pass around the wire support mechanism 6. The wire support mechanism 6 tightens the wire harness, and the middle of the tightened wire harness passes through the cutting mechanism 5. At this time, controlling the cutting mechanism 5 can cut the wire harness in half, and the cut wire harness will necessarily be of equal length.
[0019] A mounting groove 101 is provided at the top of the horizontal plate 1, away from the wire clamp 4, extending along its length. The bottom of the cutting mechanism 5 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove 101, and the specific installation position of the cutting mechanism 5 at the top of the horizontal plate 1 can be determined according to actual needs. A strip-shaped hole 102 is symmetrically provided along the center of the horizontal plate 1, extending along its length. A stop block 103 is also fixedly installed at the top of the horizontal plate 1 near the cutting mechanism 5, which can limit the farthest distance of the wire support mechanism 6.
[0020] The cutting mechanism 5 includes a base 51 fixedly installed in the assembly slot 101. A cutting cylinder 52 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 51 away from the wire support mechanism 6. A hinge seat 53 is fixedly installed on the top of the cutting cylinder 52 near the wire support mechanism 6. A hinge frame 54 is fixedly installed at the end of the output shaft of the cutting cylinder 52. A cutting arm 55 is hingedly installed on the hinge frame 54. A connecting arm 56 is hingedly connected to the middle of the cutting arm 55. The end of the connecting arm 56 away from the cutting arm 55 is hingedly installed on the hinge seat 53. A cutter 57 is fixedly installed at the end of the cutting arm 55 away from the hinge frame 54. When the cutting cylinder 52 is activated, it drives the cutting arm 55 to move through the hinge frame 54. The movement of the end of the cutting arm 55 with the cutter 57 can be changed through the connecting arm 56 and the hinge seat 53, thereby changing the height of the cutter 57 and achieving the cutting of the wire harness.
[0021] A support block 58 is fixedly installed at the top end of the base 51 away from the cutting cylinder 52. A cutting groove 59 is opened at the center of the top of the support block 58. An outer protective shell 50 is also fixedly installed on the top of the cutting cylinder 52. The top of the support block 58 can support the middle of the wire harness, and the cutting groove 59 can accommodate the cutter 57, which facilitates stable cutting of the wire harness.
[0022] The support mechanism 6 includes an adjusting cylinder 601 horizontally mounted on the top of the cross plate 1. A push plate 602 is fixedly mounted on the end of the output shaft of the adjusting cylinder 601. An assembly frame 603 is fixedly mounted on the end of the push plate 602. Two parallel horizontal bars 604 are fixedly mounted on the top of the assembly frame 603. A strip plate 605 is fixedly mounted on the top of the two horizontal bars 604 along its length. A slide rail 606 is fixedly mounted on the top of the strip plate 605 along its length. A slide block 608 is slidably mounted on the slide rail 606. A slide plate 607 is fixedly mounted on the slide block 608. An extension plate 615 is fixedly mounted on the end of the two slide plates 607 that is far apart from each other. A vertical shaft 616 is fixedly mounted on the top of the end of the extension plate 615 that is far away from the horizontal bars 604. A vertical roller 617 is rotatably mounted on the outside of the vertical shaft 616. By passing the wire harness around the two vertical rollers 617, the extension plates 615 at the ends can be moved away from each other by the slide plate 607, thereby changing the distance between the vertical rollers 617 and ultimately tightening the wire harness.
[0023] A connecting plate 610 is fixedly installed at the bottom between the two horizontal bars 604. A tensioning motor 611 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting plate 610. A drive shaft 612, which passes through the connecting plate 610, is fixedly connected to the output shaft end of the tensioning motor 611. A gear 614 is fixedly installed at the output shaft end of the drive shaft 612. A rack 609 is fixedly installed on the top of the slide plate 607 near the gear 614. The rack 609 meshes with the gear 614. An outer sleeve 613 is also fixedly installed on the top of the connecting plate 610. The outer sleeve 613 is fitted over the drive shaft 612. When the tensioning motor 611 is started, it drives the drive shaft 612 to rotate. The rotation of the drive shaft 612 drives the gear 614 to rotate. When the gear 614 rotates, it drives the slide plates 607 to slide away from each other through the racks 609 on both sides, thereby adjusting the distance between the vertical rollers 617.
[0024] The wire clamp 4 includes a stand 41 fixedly installed on the top of the horizontal plate 1. A horizontal bar 42 is fixedly installed at the top end of the stand 41, and a vertical block 43 is fixedly installed at the top center of the horizontal bar 42. Clamping blocks 44 are slidably installed on both sides of the top of the horizontal bar 42. By adjusting the clamping blocks 44 on both sides to move towards the vertical block 43 in the middle, the ends of the wire harness can be clamped and fixed.
[0025] An adjusting motor 45 is embedded in the top of the stand 41. A handle 46 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the adjusting motor 45 above the crossbar 42. Traction arms 47 are hinged to both ends of the handle 46. The end of the traction arm 47 away from the handle 46 is hinged to the bottom outer wall of the corresponding clamping block 44. When the adjusting motor 45 is started, it will drive the traction arms 47 on both sides to move through the handle 46. The traction arms 47 will then pull the clamping block 44 to move, thereby achieving the clamping of the wire harness end by the clamping block 44 and the stand 43.
[0026] The top two ends of the horizontal bar block 42 are provided with sliding grooves 48, and the bottom of the clamping block 44 is integrally provided with a slider 49, which is slidably installed in the sliding groove 48. The assembly of the sliding groove 48 and the slider 49 can ensure the stable sliding adjustment of the clamping block 44.

The wire support mechanism 6 can accurately tighten the wire harness according to its length, ensuring that the middle part of the wire harness can be placed in the cutting mechanism 5. Then, the cutting blade 57 can achieve accurate cutting in half. Therefore, it can adapt to wire harnesses of various lengths for wire cutting operations, and its adaptability is relatively high.
