Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of wire harness processing equipment, and in particular to an integrated twisting device for automatically feeding energy storage wire harnesses. Background Technology

[0002] As a key component connecting energy storage battery packs to external systems, the processing quality of energy storage harnesses directly affects the stability and safety of energy storage systems. During the production and processing of energy storage harnesses, it is often necessary to fold and twist multiple strands of wire. Existing harness processing procedures mostly use manual assisted feeding or simple flat conveyor belts for transportation. However, energy storage harnesses are relatively thick and composed of multiple strands of wire. In a transportation environment lacking effective limiting and wire management structures, the multiple strands of wire are prone to radial displacement during transportation due to belt vibration or mutual friction, resulting in entanglement, crossing, or knotting between the wires. This not only seriously affects the smoothness of material transportation but also leads to disordered arrangement of the wires when they arrive at the processing position.

[0003] Furthermore, when the wire harness is transported to the processing area, the existing processing mode often lacks an automatic transfer mechanism that can efficiently connect the transport station and the twisting station. It can only rely on manual labor to pick up the wire harness delivered to the location and place it into the chuck of the twisting equipment, or use a simple one-way cylinder clamp for gripping. However, relying solely on manual operation is labor-intensive and inefficient. Simple clamps cannot guarantee the uniformity of clamping force and the accuracy of position when gripping multiple loose wire harnesses. During high-speed transfer, wire harnesses are prone to loosening, slipping, or misalignment, resulting in inconsistent twisting quality, which is difficult to meet the production requirements of automated, high-efficiency, and highly consistent energy storage wire harnesses.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes an integrated twisting device for automatic feeding of energy storage harnesses to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the problems existing in energy storage harness processing equipment, such as the lack of effective limiting during the transport of harnesses leading to easy tangling and knotting, low efficiency of manual feeding, and unstable processing connection due to inaccurate positioning of the transfer mechanism, this utility model aims to provide an integrated twisting device for automatic feeding of energy storage harnesses with an improved structure that can effectively solve the above problems.

[0006] This utility model provides an integrated twisting device for automatic feeding of energy storage wire harnesses, including: a workbench, and a twisting assembly fixedly connected to the left side of the workbench. The integrated twisting device for automatic feeding of energy storage wire harnesses also includes a conveying mechanism installed on the right side of the outer wall of the twisting assembly, and a clamping mechanism installed on the right side of the top wall of the twisting assembly.

[0007] The conveying mechanism includes a connecting seat fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the right side of the outer wall of the workbench. A round shaft is provided on the upper end of the inner wall of the connecting seat. A hollow guide column is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer wall of the round shaft. A conveyor belt is provided on the upper end of the workbench. The hollow guide column is used to limit the radial displacement of the energy storage wire harness. The clamping mechanism includes a bracket installed on the right side of the top wall of the twisted wire assembly. A slider is slidably connected to the right side of the top wall of the bracket. An electric push rod is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper end of the inner wall of the slider. A locking block is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod. A guide rail is slidably connected to the outer wall of the locking block. A clamping block is fixedly connected to the lower end of the outer wall of the locking block.

[0008] Furthermore, the clamping block clamps the energy storage wire harness by sliding the locking block on the guide rail, and the sliding of the slider on the bracket, in conjunction with the clamping action of the clamping block, enables the automatic transfer of the wire harness from the conveying mechanism to the twisting assembly.

[0009] Preferably, the outer wall of the circular shaft is threaded with nuts at both the front and rear ends. The nuts abut against the inner wall of the connecting seat and lock the circular shaft to prevent the circular shaft from shifting position after the transmission component rotates, thus ensuring the guiding stability of the hollow guide column.

[0010] Preferably, the outer wall of the conveyor belt is fixedly connected with multiple guide blocks at equal intervals. The guide blocks are made of soft material. The guide blocks work with the hollow guide posts to lock the energy storage wire harness, protecting the surface of the wire harness and improving the consistency of batch transmission during the conveying process.

[0011] Preferably, the slider is driven by a sensor to slide on the bracket, and the electric push rod constitutes a drive assembly. The electric push rod drives the locking block to perform telescopic movement to achieve precise linear drive control.

[0012] Preferably, a rectangular groove is provided in the middle of the inner wall of the guide rail, and the locking block is slidably connected in the rectangular groove, thereby restricting the movement trajectory of the locking block through the rectangular groove.

[0013] Preferably, there are two locking blocks. The two locking blocks move in opposite directions within the rectangular groove II under the drive of the electric push rod, causing the two clamping blocks to move away from or towards each other, thereby achieving the centering clamping and release of the wire harness.

[0014] Preferably, a rectangular groove is provided on the left side of the top wall of the clamping block, and a protrusion is provided at the lower end of the locking block. The protrusion of the locking block is engaged and fixed in the rectangular groove, so that the locking block and the clamping block are connected and fixed, thereby enhancing the stability of the connection structure and preventing it from falling off.

[0015] Preferably, the connecting seat supports the circular shaft to prevent left and right deviation during wire harness transmission, and the clamping block is located above the conveyor belt conveying path to transport the energy storage wire harness to the processing area of ​​the twisting assembly, thereby achieving seamless connection between the feeding process and the twisting process.

[0016] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. This utility model solves the problems of low efficiency in manual feeding of energy storage wire harnesses and entanglement or kinking caused by mutual friction and displacement of multiple wire harnesses during transportation by setting a round shaft and hollow guide column on the connecting seat and forming a conveyor mechanism with a conveyor belt with flexible guide blocks. It achieves the effect of limiting the radial displacement of each wire and ensuring that the wire harness always maintains a parallel arrangement state, realizing efficient automatic feeding of energy storage wire harnesses. At the same time, the flexible guide blocks avoid damage to the surface of the wire harness and improve the consistency and stability of batch transmission.

[0018] 2. This utility model solves the problems of inaccurate wire harness transfer and positioning and unstable clamping force that easily cause the wire harness to fall off during movement in the prior art by setting a clamping mechanism including an electric push rod, a guide rail and a locking block above the twisting assembly. The electric push rod drives the two locking blocks to move in opposite directions in the guide rail groove, thereby opening and closing the clamping blocks. This achieves the effect of firmly clamping the energy storage wire harness and accurately transferring it to the processing station, ensuring the consistency of the clamping action and the stability of the connection, and realizing a smooth and automated connection from feeding to twisting processing.

Detailed Implementation

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0028] Example:

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 This utility model provides an integrated twisting device for automatically feeding energy storage harnesses, which aims to solve the problems of low efficiency of manual feeding of energy storage harnesses, easy entanglement during transportation, and unstable transfer and positioning in the prior art.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 An integrated twisting device for automatically feeding energy storage wire harnesses includes a workbench 4, which provides a supporting base for the entire device. A twisting assembly 1 is fixedly connected to the left side of the outer wall of the workbench 4. The twisting assembly 1 is used to twist the energy storage wire harness. A conveying mechanism 2 is installed on the right side of the outer wall of the twisting assembly 1. The conveying mechanism 2 is used to automatically feed the wire harness. A clamping mechanism 3 is installed on the right side of the top wall of the twisting assembly 1. The clamping mechanism 3 is used to clamp the energy storage wire harness conveyed by the conveying mechanism 2 and transfer it to the processing area of ​​the twisting assembly 1.

[0031] The conveying mechanism 2 includes a connecting seat 201, which is fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the right side of the outer wall of the workbench 4. The connecting seat 201 serves as the core support component of the conveying mechanism 2, providing a basic guarantee for the conveying mechanism 2. A round shaft 205 is provided on the upper end of the inner wall of the connecting seat 201. The round shaft 205 serves as a support for the subsequent guiding component to prevent left and right deviation during wire harness transmission and to ensure accurate docking of subsequent clamping and twisting actions. Nuts 204 are threaded to the front and rear ends of the outer wall of the round shaft 205. The nuts 204 abut against the inner wall of the connecting seat 201 and lock the round shaft 205 to prevent the round shaft 205 from shifting after rotating with the transmission component. The locking effect of the nuts 204 ensures that the relative position of the round shaft 205 and the connecting seat 201 is stable for a long time.

[0032] A hollow guide post 203 is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer wall of the circular shaft 205. The hollow guide post 203 is used to limit the radial displacement of the energy storage wire harness. The hollow guide post 203 guides the multiple wire harnesses to pass through in parallel, limiting the displacement of each wire to ensure that the wire harnesses always maintain a parallel arrangement. This avoids tangling and twisting caused by mutual friction or offset of the wires during the transmission process. The central axis of the hollow guide post 203 is parallel and aligned with the conveyor belt 206 in the conveying direction. The upper end of the worktable 4 is equipped with a conveyor belt 206. The wire harnesses are conveyed by driving the conveyor belt 206 to achieve automatic feeding of the energy storage wire harnesses. Multiple guide blocks 202 are fixedly connected at equal intervals along the length of the outer wall of the conveyor belt 206. The guide blocks 202 are made of soft rubber material and will not affect the normal operation of the conveying mechanism 2. The guide blocks 202, together with the hollow guide post 203, play a double locking role for the wire harnesses and improve the consistency of batch transmission of wire harnesses.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The clamping mechanism 3 includes a bracket 301, which is fixedly installed on the right side of the top wall of the twisting assembly 1. The bracket 301 serves as a guide for the clamping mechanism 3. Driven by a sensor, subsequent components can clamp the cable and transport it through the bracket 301 to ensure transport stability. A slider 302 is slidably connected to the right side of the top wall of the bracket 301. Driven by a sensor, the slider 302 can slide smoothly on the bracket 301 to achieve the transport of the energy storage cable harness. An electric push rod 3031 is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper end of the inner wall of the slider 302. The electric push rod 3031 constitutes the main component of the drive assembly 303. The electric push rod 3031 is used to drive subsequent components to clamp the cable to improve the reliability of linear drive. A locking block 3032 is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod 3031. When the electric push rod 3031 is started, the internal motor of the electric push rod 3031 drives the output end of the electric push rod 3031 to extend and retract, thereby driving the two locking blocks 3032 to move closer or further apart.

[0034] A guide rail 305 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the locking block 3032. A rectangular groove 306 is formed in the middle of the inner wall of the guide rail 305. The two locking blocks 3032 are driven to move in opposite directions in the rectangular groove 306 by the drive assembly 303 to ensure consistent clamping action. A clamping block 307 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the outer wall of the locking block 3032. The clamping block 307 is used to clamp and fix the energy storage wire harness. A rectangular groove 304 is formed on the left side of the top wall of the clamping block 307. The lower end of the locking block 3032 is provided with a protruding structure. The protruding structure of the locking block 3032 engages with the rectangular groove 304 of the clamping block 307, so that the locking block 3032 and the clamping block 307 are connected and fixed. The locking block 3032 drives the clamping block 307 to move together. Through the movement of the locking block 3032, the two clamping blocks 307 move away from each other and closer to each other on the guide rail 305, ultimately achieving the clamping and placement of the energy storage harness to prevent it from falling off and to enhance the connection stability.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, in order to prevent the round shaft 205 from shifting after the transmission component rotates and to ensure the stability of the installation base, nuts 204 are threaded to both the front and rear ends of the outer wall of the round shaft 205. The nuts 204 abut against the inner wall of the connecting seat 201 and lock the round shaft 205. The locking effect of the nuts 204 ensures that the relative position of the round shaft 205 and the connecting seat 201 is stable for a long time.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment, in order to improve the consistency of batch transmission of wire harnesses and protect the surface of wire harnesses, multiple guide blocks 202 are fixedly connected at equal intervals along the length direction on the outer wall of the conveyor belt 206. The guide blocks 202 are made of soft material and will not affect the normal operation of the conveying mechanism 2. The guide blocks 202, together with the hollow guide column 203, play a double locking role for the wire harnesses.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment, in order to improve the reliability of linear drive and ensure the consistency of clamping action, the drive assembly 303 includes an electric push rod 3031 fixedly connected to the middle of the upper end of the inner wall of the slider 302. The output end of the electric push rod 3031 is fixedly connected to the locking block 3032. There are two locking blocks 3032, which are symmetrically arranged in the guide rail 305. The locking blocks 3032 are slidably connected in the rectangular groove 306 opened in the middle of the inner wall of the guide rail 305. The electric push rod 3031 drives the two locking blocks 3032 to move in opposite directions in the rectangular groove 306.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment, to prevent the clamping components from falling off and to enhance the connection stability, a rectangular groove 304 is provided on the left side of the top wall of the clamping block 307, and a protruding structure is provided at the lower end of the locking block 3032. The protruding structure of the locking block 3032 is engaged and fixed in the rectangular groove 304. The locking block 3032 is engaged and connected with the clamping block 307, so that the locking block 3032 drives the clamping block 307 to move away from each other and closer to each other on the guide rail 305.

[0039] Working principle: The energy storage wire harness to be processed is neatly stacked by the front component and enters the conveying mechanism 2. The conveying mechanism 2 uses the connecting seat 201 as the core support component and is fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the right side of the outer wall of the workbench 4. The upper end of the inner wall of the connecting seat 201 is provided with a round shaft 205 as a guide component support. The round shaft 205 is threadedly connected by a nut 204 and abuts against the inner wall of the connecting seat 201 to prevent the round shaft 205 from shifting after the transmission component rotates. The middle of the outer wall of the round shaft 205 is fixedly connected with a hollow guide column 203. When multiple wire harnesses pass through the hollow guide column 203 in parallel, the guiding effect of the hollow guide column 203 is used to limit the radial displacement of each wire to ensure that the wire harnesses always remain in a parallel arrangement. The conveying mechanism 2 is started to drive the conveyor belt 206 set at the upper end of the workbench 4 to rotate. Multiple soft material guide blocks 202 are fixedly connected at equal intervals on the outer wall of the conveyor belt 206. The guide blocks 202, together with the hollow guide column 203, play a double locking role for the wire harness and drive the wire harness to be smoothly conveyed to the left to achieve automatic feeding.

[0040] When the energy storage harness is delivered to the designated position, the bracket 301 installed on the right side of the top wall of the twisting assembly 1 serves as a guide. The slider 302 is driven by the sensor to slide on the right side of the top wall of the bracket 301 to the gripping position. The upper middle part of the inner wall of the slider 302 is fixedly connected to the electric push rod 3031. When the electric push rod 3031 is activated, the output end of the electric push rod 3031 extends and retracts. The output end of the electric push rod 3031 drives the two locking blocks 3032 to move in opposite directions in the rectangular groove 306 opened in the middle of the inner wall of the guide rail 305. The lower end of the locking block 3032 protrudes and engages with the rectangular groove 304 opened on the left side of the top wall of the clamping block 307. The locking block 3032 drives the clamping block 307 to move closer to each other on the guide rail 305. The two clamping blocks 307 close to complete the clamping and fixing of the energy storage harness.

[0041] After clamping is completed, the sensor drives the slider 302 to slide to the left along the bracket 301. The slider 302 drives the clamping mechanism 3 to transfer the energy storage wire harness to the processing position of the twisting assembly 1. The twisting assembly 1 twists the energy storage wire harness. After processing, the electric push rod 3031 drives the locking block 3032 in the opposite direction to move the clamping block 307 away from each other and release the wire harness. The wire harness falls into the collection box to complete the processing process. The entire process is supported by the workbench 4. The automatic feeding and precise transfer of the energy storage wire harness are realized through the cooperation of the conveying mechanism 2 and the clamping mechanism 3.
