Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of cutting devices, and in particular to a cable slicing device. Background Technology

[0002] In the fields of power and communications, cables serve as the core carriers for energy transmission and signal transmission. To ensure that the quality of cable products meets the standards, reliability tests are required to detect and analyze their internal structure, material properties, and interface bonding status. Uniform thickness and complete cross-section slices are needed to facilitate observation of the microstructure of each component of the cable, such as the conductor, insulation layer, and shielding layer.

[0003] Currently, the preparation of cable slices in the industry mainly relies on manual cutting or simple cutting tools. Manual cutting requires operators to hold the knife and cut the cable, which is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also makes it difficult to control the cutting force and angle, resulting in uneven slice thickness, skewed cross-sections, and even material extrusion deformation, which seriously affects the accuracy of subsequent test results. Although simple cutting tools have replaced manual operation to some extent, they usually only have a single clamping function and cannot achieve stable clamping for different types and hardnesses of cables. Especially for flexible cables, the cutting accuracy is easily reduced due to cable tilting, which cannot meet the needs of modern testing for batch and high-precision slices.

[0004] Therefore, a cable slicing device is needed to stably clamp cables of different types and hardnesses to solve the problem of not being able to ensure slicing accuracy when cutting cables. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to securely clamp the cable and support one end of the cable for slicing, and to prevent bending during the cable slicing process from affecting the accuracy of the cable slicing, this application provides a cable slicing device.

[0006] This application provides a cable slicing device, which adopts the following technical solution: A cable slicing device includes a device body, the device body including a clamping structure for clamping a cable, a lifting and rotating assembly for driving the clamping structure to lift and rotate, a slicing blade for cutting the cable, and a horizontal drive source for driving the slicing blade to move horizontally to cut the cable. The slicing blade is slidably mounted on the device body along the radial direction of the cable. The device body is slidably mounted with a support mechanism to keep the cut end of the cable straight, the support mechanism being located between the clamping structure and the slicing blade.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the cable is stably clamped by the clamping structure. The lifting and rotating component drives the clamping structure to rise, moving the cable on the clamping structure to a suitable height. The lifting and rotating component can also drive the clamping structure to rotate, ensuring a flat cable cut. The horizontal drive source can drive the slicing blade to move horizontally to complete the cutting action. The slicing blade achieves precise cutting of the cable along the radial direction. The support mechanism is set between the clamping structure and the slicing blade, so that the cut end of the cable remains straight, better assisting in the cutting of the cable.

[0008] Optionally, the support mechanism includes a left support plate, a right support plate, and a support drive assembly that drives the left and right support plates to move closer to or further away from each other to support or release the cable. The left and right support plates are slidably mounted on the device body along the radial direction of the cable.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, before cutting the cable, the support drive component drives the left support plate and the right support plate to move closer to each other, so as to keep the end of the cable to be cut straight, thereby better assisting the cable cutting. After the cutting is completed, the support drive component drives the left support plate and the right support plate to move away from each other, so as to release the cable and improve the cutting efficiency.

[0010] Optionally, the device body is provided with a guide member to guide the left support plate and the right support plate to slide, and the guide member has a first groove that slides with the left support plate and the right support plate.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, during the sliding process of the left and right support plates driven by the support drive component, the first groove on the guide can provide accurate guidance for the sliding of the left and right support plates, making the left and right support plates slide more stably and smoothly.

[0012] Optionally, the left support plate and the right support plate are each provided with a V-shaped opening, and the two V-shaped openings together form a limiting channel for the cable to pass through.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting channel formed by the V-shaped openings in the left and right support plates facilitates the passage of cables, provides better limiting for the cables, and ensures that the cable cutting end is more stable during the cutting process.

[0014] Optionally, there is a height difference between the left support plate and the right support plate to adjust the size of the limiting channel.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the size of the limiting channel can be adjusted by utilizing the height difference between the left and right support plates, thereby accommodating cables of different sizes.

[0016] Optionally, the device body is provided with a slide for mounting the slicing blade and a slide rail that slides with the slide, and the slide is fixedly connected to the horizontal drive source.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the horizontal drive source drives the slide block and slide rail to slide together, so that the slicing blade can move horizontally on the device body in a stable manner, thereby cutting the cable more accurately.

[0018] Optionally, the clamping structure includes a jaw, a chuck on which the jaw is mounted, and a clamping drive assembly that drives the jaw to move closer to or away from the central axis of the chuck. The jaw is slidably mounted on the chuck, and the clamping drive assembly is fixedly mounted on the chuck.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, a clamping structure is formed by using claws, a chuck, and a clamping drive component. The claws can slide on the chuck, and the clamping drive component can drive the claws to move closer to or away from the central axis of the chuck, thereby achieving reliable clamping of the cable and facilitating subsequent cable slicing operations.

[0020] Optionally, the lifting and rotating assembly includes a lifting drive source for lifting the chuck and a rotating drive source for rotating the chuck. The lifting drive source is fixed to the bottom of the chuck and fixedly mounted on the rotating drive source, and the rotating drive source is fixedly mounted on the device body.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the lifting drive source can drive the chuck to lift and lower, which can adjust the height position of the cable; the rotation drive source can drive the chuck to rotate, which can rotate the cable, thereby facilitating the slicing operation of the cable at different angles and ensuring that the cable cut is flat; the lifting drive source and the rotation drive source realize flexible adjustment of the cable in terms of height and cutting angle, which is conducive to improving the efficiency and quality of cable slicing.

[0022] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. The clamping structure stably clamps the cable, and the lifting and rotating component drives the clamping structure to rise and rotate, thereby adjusting the cable cutting height and ensuring a flat cable cut. The horizontal drive source drives the slicing blade to move horizontally to complete the cutting action, improving the cutting accuracy and stability. 2. Supporting organizations should keep the cable cutting end straight to avoid bending or shaking the cable during the cutting process, thereby improving the quality and accuracy of the slices; 3. The limiting channel is formed by the V-shaped openings on the left and right support plates to prevent the cable from shaking during the cutting process. The height difference between the left and right support plates can flexibly adjust the size of the limiting channel to accommodate cables of different sizes. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0026] Example: A cable slicing device, reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The device includes a main body 1, which comprises a clamping structure 2, a lifting and rotating assembly 3, a slicing blade 4, a horizontal drive source 5, and a support mechanism 6. The clamping structure 2 and the lifting and rotating assembly 3 are mounted on the main body 1. Driven by the lifting and rotating assembly 3, the clamping structure 2 can be lifted, lowered, and rotated on the main body 1. The cable is stably clamped by the clamping structure 2, and the end of the cable to be cut extends from the clamping structure 2, thereby raising the cable to the slicing height and maintaining the cable's rotation during the slicing process. The slicing blade 4 is slidably mounted on the main body 1, and the horizontal drive source 5 drives the slicing blade 4 to move radially along the cable to cut it. The support mechanism 6 is located between the clamping structure 2 and the slicing blade 4, and can keep the cut end of the cable straight during the cutting process to avoid shaking and ensure a flat slice.

[0027] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3The clamping structure 2 includes jaws 211, a chuck 212, and a clamping drive assembly. In this embodiment, four jaws 211 are provided, and the clamping ends of the jaws 211 are provided with rubber anti-slip pads. The chuck 212 has guide grooves 213 that slide with the jaws 211. The guide grooves 213 extend radially along the chuck 212 and are evenly distributed on the chuck 212. The four jaws 211 are slidably mounted on the chuck 212. The clamping drive assembly is provided on the chuck 212 and includes a combination of a cylinder, a bevel gear, and a lead screw. The cylinder provides power, and the bevel gear and lead screw realize the direction conversion of power, so that the four jaws 211 move synchronously along the radial direction of the chuck 212. The jaws 211 move closer to each other to clamp the cable or move further away from each other to release the cable, ensuring that the cable remains in a stable position during the cutting process.

[0028] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The lifting and rotating assembly 3 includes a lifting drive source 311 and a rotating drive source 312. In this embodiment, the lifting drive source 311 includes an electric push rod. The rod of the electric push rod is fixed to the center of the bottom of the chuck 212 and can drive the chuck 212 to rise and fall in the vertical direction to adjust the height of the cable cutting position.

A transmission belt 313 is fitted on the sleeve of the rotating drive source 312 and the sleeve of the rotating drive source 312. Through the transmission of the transmission belt 313, the chuck 212 and the cable can be driven to rotate around their own axis to realize the circular cutting of the cable and ensure the cutting accuracy.

A second slide groove 112 is provided at the bottom of the slide block 111. The second slide groove 112 is slidably engaged with the slide rail 121. In this embodiment, the horizontal drive source 5 includes an electric push rod. The rod part of the electric push rod is fixed to the slide block 111 and drives the slide block 111 to slide horizontally on the slide rail 121, thereby realizing the horizontal feeding of the slicing blade 4. With the rotation of the cable, the blade of the slicing blade 4 acts evenly on the circumference of the cable, reducing cutting resistance and ensuring a flat cut.

[0030] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The support mechanism 6 includes a left support plate 611, a right support plate 612, and a support drive assembly 621. The support drive assembly 621 includes a left electric push rod 622 and a right electric push rod 623. The rod of the left electric push rod 622 is fixedly connected to the left support plate 611 to realize the horizontal sliding of the left support plate 611.

The left support plate 611 and the right support plate 612 are located at both ends of the first groove 132 and slide in cooperation with the first groove 132 respectively. The left support plate 611 and the right support plate 612 have V-shaped openings. The two V-shaped openings are arranged opposite each other to form a limiting channel 613, which supports the cable during the cable rotation and cutting process and reduces cable sway. There is a height difference between the left support plate 611 and the right support plate 612. Under the drive of the left electric push rod 622 and the right electric push rod 623, the left support plate 611 and the right support plate 612 can overlap and flexibly adjust the size of the limiting channel 613 to adapt to cables of different specifications.

[0032] The implementation principle of this application embodiment is as follows: the cable to be sliced ​​is clamped and fixed by the four claws 211 of the clamping structure 2; the lifting and rotating component 3 adjusts the height of the cable to the slicing position and drives the cable to rotate to ensure uniform cutting; under the drive of the left electric push rod 622 and the right electric push rod 623, the size of the limiting channel 613 is flexibly adjusted to stably support the cable; the horizontal drive source 5 drives the slide 111 to move along the slide rail 121, driving the slicing blade 4 to feed radially along the cable, and in conjunction with the rotation of the cable, achieves ring cutting, and finally obtains a flat slice.
