Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the setting of the width and winding diameter of a reel according to the diameter, length and hardness of a wound material and make the disconnection easy by regulating the length of the reel bottom face by the movement of the left side plate, and deforming a quadric crank mechanism having the bottom face as one side by an actuator so that the right side plate is horizontalized. CONSTITUTION:The length regulation in the circumferential direction of a reel 18 is conducted by vertically moving an inclusion plate 30 by human power as the reel 18 is still installed to a support base 16. Thus, a screw 32 is unfastened to move the inclusion plate 30, and then the refixing is conducted. The length regulation of the bottom side 20 of the reel 18 is conducted by sliding the left side plate 22. For the disconnection of a wound lengthy material, an air cylinder 52 is excited to shorten a piston 54. Then, the reel 18 is deformed until the right side plate 24 is nearly horizontalized by a quadric crank mechanism. Under this condition, the lengthy material is taken out so as to be slid under the right side plate.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to the sewing order of long objects such as strings, ropes, and robes, and flexible tubes such as flexible plastic tubes and metal tubes. It relates to a winding machine that winds up. In particular, the present invention relates to a winding frame in which the width, winding diameter, etc. of the rotating winding frame in the winding machine can be adjusted, and the winding up of a long object can be easily taken out.

[Prior Art] Various winding machines for winding up long objects have been known. In both cases, the principle is the same as that of a thread winder, in which a long object is hung on a protrusion protruding from a rotating disk, and as the disk is rotated, the object is wound onto the protrusion.

Usually, a take-up frame is formed on a protrusion projecting from the rotating disk to guide a long object and prevent it from running horizontally. This winding frame can be used to adjust the size of the long object to be wound.
Depending on length, stiffness, etc., it is necessary to set various widths, heights, and winding diameters.

Conventionally, to perform this work, multiple types of winding machines were prepared and the appropriate one was selected and used each time.
Or, the take-up frame itself had to be replaced.

In addition, it is necessary to take out the rolled up item without losing its shape. Conventionally, this work was performed by first removing the take-up frame.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Providing multiple types of winding machines increases costs and tends to be uneconomical in terms of space for setup. In order to replace the winding frame, it is necessary to prepare a plurality of frames, and in the case of a large winding machine, the winding frame alone is quite heavy, making the task extremely difficult.

The present invention is a single winding machine that can be set to various widths and winding diameters depending on the size, length, hardness, etc. of the long object to be wound. Moreover, it is an object of the present invention to provide a winding machine having a winding frame from which it is extremely easy to remove a wound long object.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The take-up frame of the present invention is a take-up frame having left and right side plates that are movably attached to a rotating support base in the circumferential direction, and the length of the bottom surface of the take-up frame is This is possible by moving the left side plate, and has a four-bar mechanism with the bottom surface of the take-up frame as one side, and the right side plate becomes almost horizontal by deforming the four bars by the output of an actuator. Features.

The rotating support base may be disc-shaped or may radiate out in a star shape.

The actuator may be, for example, an air cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, servo motor, or similar device.

[Function] According to the present invention, the take-up frame is movable in the circumferential direction on the rotation support base, and has left and right side plates. The length of the bottom surface of the take-up frame can be changed by moving the left side plate.

Further, it has a four-bar mechanism having the bottom surface of the winding frame as one side, and the four-bar mechanism is deformed by the output of the actuator, so that the right side plate becomes substantially horizontal. In this state, it is easy to take out the rolled up long object.

[Embodiment] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a winding machine 10 of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a side view, and FIG. 3 is a front view.

The box-shaped portion on the left side of FIG. 2 is a drive section 12 that incorporates a drive device for a winding machine. This drive unit 12 itself is well known and does not need to be described in detail here. In short, any type of device may be used as long as it transmits a controlled rotational force to the output shaft.

As seen in FIG. 1.3, a take-up frame support 16 is attached to the output shaft 14 and extends in all directions. In the present invention, the number of support stands 16 is not limited to eight, but is usually 3 to 10. Alternatively, it may be a single disc.

As is clear from FIGS. 1 and 2, these support stands 16 on all sides
A winding frame 18 is attached to protrude from each of the winding frames 18. Since all the winding frames 18 have the same structure, only one of them will be described. In the following description, the "left side" refers to the drive mechanism 12 side, and the "right side" refers to the opposite side.

In addition, "inside" refers to the center 14 direction in Figure 2, and "
"Outside" means the opposite side.

The winding frame 18 has a winding bottom surface 20 and left and right side plates 22 and 24.
It consists of a frame body and a movement adjustment mechanism for the frame.

The winding bottom surface 20 is a plate-shaped body that extends vertically from the support base 16 via an intervening plate 30. The intervening plate 30 and the support base 16 are fixed by adjusting screws 32 (see Fig. 5).
. The right side plate 24 is fixed at one point at the distal end 34 of the winding bottom plate 20 and rises inwardly and outwardly therefrom. The outer portion 36 becomes the right side plate 24. The left side plate 22 is slidable on the winding bottom surface 20 and can be fixed at an appropriate position. This sliding and fixing operation is carried out in the sixth
As shown in the drawings and FIG. 7, it consists of a long hole 38 and fixed pins 40a and 40b that fit into the long hole 38. As seen in these figures, if the winding auxiliary bottom surface 20a is provided below the winding bottom surface 20, a long object can be wound stably.

A first connecting rod 42 protrudes from the winding bottom plate 20 in a direction opposite to the left side plate 22 (inward direction).

A second connecting rod 46 connects the end of the first connecting rod 42 and the end of the inner portion 44 of the right side plate. Therefore, the winding bottom surface 20, the right side tilting plate part 44, and the first and second connecting rods 42, 46 form a four-bar mechanism. This four-bar mechanism is rectangular or parallelogram-shaped. As shown in FIG. 1, it is preferable to provide a pair of left and right connecting rods 42 and 46, since this increases the strength of the four-bar mechanism.

A short L-shaped needle 48 is attached to the right end 48 of the s2 connecting rod 46.
The end of a piston 54 of an air cylinder 52 is connected to this L-shaped needle 48.

The air cylinder 52 is attached to the support base 16 by the intervening plate 3.
Fixed via 0.

Similar to the air cylinder 52, the intervening plate 3 is attached to the support base 16.
The slide shaft 56 is fixed via the
It is. The slide shaft 56 and the air cylinder 52 are connected at two points: the air cylinder body 52a and the end of the piston 54. The manner in which the piston 54 end is connected is that a ring 58 fixed to the piston 64 end slides on the slide shaft 56.

At the center portion of FIG. 3 (output shaft 14) is a handle 60 that projects from the support base 16.

The handle 60 opens and closes the take-up frame 18 using a mechanism described later.

The method of using this winding machine is to wind up a long object sent through a conveyance guide 62 shown in the lower right corner of FIG. 4 while the winding frame 18 rotates.

The operation of the adjustment mechanism of the take-up frame 18 of the present invention is as follows.

To adjust the length of the winding frame 18 in the circumferential direction, the intervening plate 30 is artificially moved up and down with the winding frame 18 attached to the support base 16. To do this, the screws 32 may be loosened, the intervening plate 30 may be moved, and then the intervening plate 30 may be re-fixed. In FIG. 3, the circumferential position of the winding frame 18 on the support base 16 varies, but this only clearly indicates that the position can be changed, and does not represent the actual usage state.

The length adjustment of the bottom side 20 of the winding frame 18 is as described above.
This is done by sliding the left side plate 22.

To remove the rolled-up long object, as shown in FIG. 5, the air cylinder 52 is energized to shorten the piston 54. Then, the four-bar mechanism deforms the winding frame 18 until the right side plate 24 becomes almost horizontal. In this state, the long object can be taken out by sliding it on the right side plate.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, a single winding machine can be used to wind various widths, depending on the size, length, hardness, etc. of the long object to be wound.
It is possible to set the winding diameter, and it is extremely easy to remove the rolled up long object.
