Description

Technisches GebietTechnical area

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Kabelbearbeitungseinrichtung mit mehreren Bearbeitungsstationen zur Konfektionierung eines Kabels, umfassend einen Schwenkarm mit einem Schwenkarmkopf, der eine Kabelführung, einen in eine Offen- und Geschlossenstellung bringbaren Kabelgreifer, ein Führungsrohr und eine Zuführeinrichtung zur Förderung des Kabels durch die Kabelführung, den Kabelgreifer und das Führungsrohr zu den Bearbeitungsstationen.The invention relates to a cable processing device having a plurality of processing stations for assembling a cable comprising a pivot arm with a Schwenkarmkopf, the cable guide, a can be brought into an open and closed position cable gripper, a guide tube and a feeder for conveying the cable through the cable guide, the cable gripper and the guide tube to the processing stations.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Eine solche Kabelbearbeitungseinrichtung ist aus der EP 1548903 bekannt. Die Kabelführung, der Kabelgreifer und das Führungsrohr haben dabei eine gemeinsame Mittelachse und sind gemeinsam dazu bestimmt, ein zu konfektionierendes Kabel im erforderlichen Maße von einer Kabeltrommel in Richtung des vorderen Endes des Schwenkarmkopfes und von diesem aufeinanderfolgend zu verschiedenen Bearbeitungsstationen zu transportieren und mit deren Hilfe zu konfektionieren. Der Schwenkarmkopf führt zu diesem Zweck Schwenkbewegungen aus sowie in Richtung der Längsachse des Schwenkarms hin- und hergehende Bewegungen. Dabei dient der Kabelgreifer dazu, das Kabel gegen eine axial gerichtete Relativverschiebung in dem Schwenkarmkopf zu sichern, während dieser zurückgezogen wird, um z.B. das vordere Ende des Kabels abzuisolieren. Um den dazu erforderlichen, festen Halt an dem Kabel zu sichern, besteht der Kabelgreifer zumeist aus einem zangenartigen Gebilde, dass das Kabel mit kammartigen Spannbacken mit mehreren Greiffingern zugleich beiderseits umgreift und das einen prismatischen Kabeldurchlass variablen Querschnittes hat, der es erlaubt, Kabel mit unterschiedlichen Durchmessern mit der nötigen Haltekraft zu fixieren. Die Spannbacken sind dazu motorisch aufeinander zu und voneinander wegbewegbar und so ausgebildet, dass sie das Kabel auf einer Klemmlänge von ca. 30 bis 50 mm erfassen. Zur Überführung des Kabelendes eines neuen Kabels aus der Kabelführung in das Führungsrohr werden zunächst die Spannbacken weit geöffnet und sodann das Kabelende aus der Kabelführung herausgezogen und manuell in das Führungsrohr eingefädelt. Dies gestaltet sich sehr schwierig, weil dabei der schlecht zugängliche Bereich des Kabelgreifers überbrückt werden muss. Das Einfädeln ist außerdem sehr unfallträchtig, weil es im Schwenkbereich des Schwenkarms vorgenommen werden muss.Such a cable processing device is known from EP 1548903 known. The cable guide, the cable gripper and the guide tube have a common central axis and are jointly intended to transport a cable to be assembled in the required extent by a cable drum in the direction of the front end of the Schwenkarmkopfes and from this successively to different processing stations and with their help assemble. The Schwenkarmkopf performs for this purpose pivotal movements and in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the pivoting arm reciprocating movements. The cable gripper serves to secure the cable against an axially directed relative displacement in the Schwenkarmkopf while this is retracted, for example, to strip the front end of the cable. In order to secure the requisite, firm hold on the cable, the cable gripper usually consists of a pliers-like structure that surrounds the cable with comb-like clamping jaws with several gripper fingers on both sides and which has a prismatic cable passage of variable cross-section, which allows cables with different To fix diameters with the necessary holding force. The jaws are motor to each other and moved away from each other and designed so that they detect the cable to a clamping length of about 30 to 50 mm. To transfer the cable end of a new cable from the cable guide into the guide tube, the clamping jaws are first opened wide and then the cable end pulled out of the cable guide and threaded manually into the guide tube. This is very difficult because it must be bridged the poorly accessible area of the cable gripper. The threading is also very accident-prone, because it must be made in the swivel range of the swivel arm.

Darstellung der ErfindungPresentation of the invention

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine solche Kabelbearbeitungseinrichtung derart weiter zu entwickeln, dass neue Kabelenden unter Vermeidung von Handarbeit und risikoreichen Manipulationen schnell in das Führungsrohr eingefädelt werden können.The invention is based on the object to further develop such a cable processing device such that new cable ends can be quickly threaded into the guide tube while avoiding manual labor and risky manipulations.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß bei einer Vorrichtung nach dem Oberbegriff durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale von Anspruch 1 gelöst. Auf vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen nehmen die Unteransprüche Bezug.This object is achieved in a device according to the preamble by the characterizing features of claim 1. In advantageous developments, the dependent claims.

Demgemäss ist es bei der erfindungsgemäßen Kabelbearbeitungseinrichtung vorgesehen, dass das Führungsrohr parallel zu seiner Längsrichtung in einer Führung des Schwenkarmkopfes verschiebbar gelagert und in der Offenstellung des Kabelgreifers durch diesen hindurch mit der Kabelführung in Eingriff bringbar und in der Ruhelage in eine Position verschiebbar ist, in der ihr vorderes Ende den Schwenkarmkopf um zumindest die Länge des Kabelgreifers überragt.Accordingly, it is provided in the cable processing device according to the invention that the guide tube parallel to its longitudinal direction slidably mounted in a guide of the Schwenkarmkopfes and in the open position of the cable gripper through it with the cable guide into engagement and displaceable in the rest position into a position in the its front end projects beyond the swivel arm head by at least the length of the cable gripper.

Das Führungsrohr kann mittels einer Feder in die Ruheposition verschiebbar ausgebildet sein. In diesem Falle ist kein interner motorischer Antrieb für die Verschiebung erforderlich. Das Führungsrohr, dass zusammen mit dem Kabelgreifer und der Kabelführung auf einer gemeinsamen Längsachse angeordnet ist, kann somit auf der Achse soweit in den Schwenkarmkopf hineingeschoben oder gezogen werden, dass es den geöffneten Kabelgreifer durchdringt und zumindest annähernd mit der Kabelführung in Eingriff gelangt. Auch sehr leicht biegbare, flexible Kabelenden können daher gefahrlos und betriebssicher durch die Kabelführung hindurch in das Düsenrohr bis zu dessen vorderem Ende vorgeschoben werden. Das Düsenrohr, das eine Länge hat, die diejenige des Kabelgreifers übertrifft, kann anschließend in seine normale Betriebsposition zurückverlagert werden, in der sie das vordere Ende des Schwenkarmkopfes überragt, ohne dass die Gefahr besteht, dass das eingeführte Kabel herunterfällt. Zweckmäßig ist das Düsenrohr mindestens doppelt so lang wie der an der Oberfläche des Kabels anliegende Kabelgreifer.The guide tube can be designed to be displaceable by means of a spring in the rest position. In this case, no internal motor drive for the shift is required. The guide tube, which is arranged together with the cable gripper and the cable guide on a common longitudinal axis, can thus be pushed or pulled on the axis far enough into the Schwenkarmkopf that it penetrates the open cable gripper and at least approximately engages the cable guide. Also very easily bendable, flexible cable ends can therefore be safely and reliably advanced through the cable guide into the nozzle tube to its front end. The nozzle tube, the one Length, which exceeds that of the cable gripper, can then be moved back to its normal operating position, in which it projects beyond the front end of the Schwenkarmkopfes without the risk that the inserted cable falls down. Suitably, the nozzle tube is at least twice as long as the voltage applied to the surface of the cable cable gripper.

Das Führungsrohr kann durch einen motorischen Antrieb bei geöffnetem Kabelgreifer durch diesen hindurch verschoben und mit der Kabelführung in Eingriff bringbar ausgebildet sein, beispielsweise durch einen elektromotorischen Antrieb oder durch eine Kolben-/Zylindereinheit, in die ein druckbeaufschlagbares Strömungsmittel einspeisbar ist.The guide tube can be moved through a motor drive with the cable gripper open therethrough and designed to be engageable with the cable guide, for example, by an electric motor drive or by a piston / cylinder unit, in which a pressurizable fluid can be fed.

Nach einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist es vorgesehen, dass das Führungsrohr mit seiner vorderen Stirnfläche an einen festmontierten Anschlag anlegbar und durch eine Längsverschiebung des Schwenkarms oder des Schwenkarmkopfes bei geöffnetem Kabelgreifer durch diesen hindurch verschiebbar und mit der Kabelführung in Eingriff bringbar ist. Diese Ausführung wird im Rahmen der Erfindung bevorzugt, weil der Schwenkarm bzw. der Schwenkarmkopf die zum Einfädeln eines neuen Kabelendes erforderlichen Relativbewegungen des Führungsrohrs ohnehin programmgesteuert ausführen kann, ohne dass es dazu eines eigenen Antriebs oder einer eigenen Steuerung bedarf. Außerdem entfällt das Gewicht eigenen Antriebs sowie eine eigene Steuerung zu dessen Betätigung für die korrekte Durchführung der Relativverschiebungen des Führungsrohrs sowie die Störanfälligkeit einer eigenen Energiezuführung für den Antrieb.According to an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the guide tube can be applied with its front end face to a fixed mounted stop and by a longitudinal displacement of the pivot arm or Schwenkarmkopfes with open cable gripper through this slidably and with the cable guide is engageable. This embodiment is preferred within the scope of the invention, because the pivot arm or the Schwenkarmkopf anyway execute the required relative to the insertion of a new cable end relative movements of the guide tube, without the need for its own drive or its own control. In addition, eliminates the weight of their own drive and its own control to its operation for the correct implementation of the relative displacements of the guide tube and the susceptibility of their own energy supply for the drive.

Das Führungsrohr kann einen Kabeldurchlass haben, der an dem der Kabelführung zugewandten Ende hohlkegelig erweitert ist, wobei die Kabelführung an dem dem Führungsrohr zugewandten Ende kegelig verjüngt und dadurch selbstzentrierend mit dem Führungsrohr in Eingriff bringbar ist. Auch unter Berücksichtigung des üblichen Spiels gelingt es dadurch, die beiderseitigen Mündungen selbstzentrierend so passgenau miteinander in Eingriff zu bringen, dass auch flexible Kabel eines sehr geringen Durchmessers vollautomatisch und problemlos durchgeschoben werden können.The guide tube may have a cable passage which is hollow-cone-shaped widened at the end facing the cable guide, wherein the cable guide tapers conically at the end facing the guide tube and thereby self-centering with the guide tube can be brought into engagement. Even taking into account the usual game, it is possible by self-centering mating the mutual mouths so precisely fit that even flexible cables of a very small diameter can be pushed fully automatically and easily.

Ausführung der ErfindungEmbodiment of the invention

Die in Fig. 1 gezeigte Kabelbearbeitungseinrichtung dient zum aufeinanderfolgenden Beschicken mehrerer Bearbeitungsstationen mit einem Kabel, das zu konfektionieren ist und beispielsweise mit einem an das Ende anzucrimpenden Kontaktelement versehen werden soll. Dazu muss das Kabelende zunächst abisoliert werden, was in einer ersten Bearbeitungsstation geschieht, und das abisolierte Kabelende anschließend zur nächsten Bearbeitungsstation überführt werden, in der es mit einem Crimpkontaktelement zusammengefasst und damit unlösbar verbunden wird. Weitere Bearbeitungsvorgänge können sich in weiteren Bearbeitungsstationen anschließen. Sie alle sind im Halbkreis um den um eine vertikale Achse schwenkbaren Schwenkarm positioniert und werden programmgesteuert von dem Schwenkarm in der jeweils erforderlichen Reihenfolge angefahren und durch Vor- und Rückwärtsbewegungen des Schwenkarmkopfes bedient.In the Fig. 1 shown cable processing device is used for sequentially feeding a plurality of processing stations with a cable that is to be assembled and is to be provided, for example, with a crimped to the end contact element. For this purpose, the cable end must first be stripped, what happens in a first processing station, and then the stripped cable end to the next processing station be converted, in which it is combined with a crimp contact element and thus permanently connected. Further processing operations can be connected in further processing stations. They are all positioned in a semicircle around the swiveling arm, which can pivot about a vertical axis, and are program-controlled by the swivel arm in the respectively required sequence and operated by forward and backward movements of the swivel arm head.

Der Schwenkarm 2 ist in einem Schlitten 10 gelagert, der in einer Schlittenführung 11 eines Drehtellers 12 parallel zu seiner Längsrichtung hin- und herverschiebbar und mittels des Drehtellers um eine vertikale Achse 13 schwenkbar ist. Sowohl die Hin- und Herbewegungen als auch die Schwenkbewegungen des Schwenkarmes 2 erfolgen motorisch und programmgesteuert.The pivot arm 2 is mounted in a carriage 10 which is in a carriage guide 11 of a turntable 12 parallel to its longitudinal direction back and forth and forth pivotable about a vertical axis 13 by means of the turntable. Both the reciprocating movements and the pivoting movements of the swivel arm 2 are motorized and programmatically.

Der Schwenkarm 2 umfasst am vorderen Ende einen Schwenkarmkopf 3 und eine Kabelführung 4, einen mittels einer motorisch um ihre Achse verdrehbaren Welle 9 in eine Offen- und Geschlossenstellung bringbaren Kabelgreifer 5 und ein Führungsrohr 6 sowie eine nicht dargestellte Zuführeinrichtung zur Förderung des Kabels 1 durch die Kabelführung 4, den Kabelgreifer 5 und das Führungsrohr 6 zu den Bearbeitungsstationen.The swivel arm 2 comprises at the front end a Schwenkarmkopf 3 and a cable guide 4, a means of a motor rotatable about its axis shaft 9 in an open and closed position cable gripper 5 and a guide tube 6 and a feed device, not shown for conveying the cable 1 through the Cable guide 4, the cable gripper 5 and the guide tube 6 to the processing stations.

Die Zuführeinrichtung ist außerhalb de Schwenkarms 2 angeordnet und in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellt. Sie besteht zumindest aus einer Kabeltrommel, einer Richtstation für das von der Kabeltrommel abgespulte Kabel und einem Kabelförderer, der durch zwei Förderbänder gebildet sein kann, die zwischen sich das zu fördernde Kabel verpressen und zugleich programmgesteuert in Richtung der Kabelführung 4 und des Schwenkarmkopfes 3 und des damit fluchtenden Führungsrohres 6 vorwärts bewegen.The feeder is arranged outside de swivel arm 2 and not shown in the drawing. It consists at least of a cable drum, a straightening station for the unwound from the cable drum cable and a cable conveyor, which may be formed by two conveyor belts, which compress the cable to be conveyed between them and programmatically in the direction of the cable guide 4 and the Schwenkarmkopfes 3 and move it aligned guide tube 6 forward.

Das Führungsrohr 6 ist parallel zu seiner Längsrichtung in einer Führung des Schwenkarmkopfes 3 verschiebbar gelagert und in der Offenstellung des Kabelgreifers 5 durch den Kabelgreifer hindurch verschiebbar und mit der Kabelführung 4 in Eingriff bringbar. In der Ruhelage ist das Führungsrohr 6 mittels einer Feder 7 in eine Ruheposition vorschiebbar, in der ihr vorderes Ende den Schwenkarmkopf 3 um zumindest die Länge des Kabelgreifers 5 überragt.The guide tube 6 is slidably mounted parallel to its longitudinal direction in a guide of the Schwenkarmkopfes 3 and in the open position of the cable gripper 5 through the cable gripper and slidably engageable with the cable guide 4 in engagement. In the rest position, the guide tube 6 can be advanced by means of a spring 7 into a rest position in which its front end projects beyond the pivot arm head 3 by at least the length of the cable gripper 5.

Das Führungsrohr 6 kann durch einen motorischen Antrieb bei geöffnetem Kabelgreifer mit der Kabelführung in Eingriff bringbar ausgebildet sein.The guide tube 6 may be formed engageable by a motor drive with the cable gripper open with the cable guide.

Demgegenüber ist bei der Ausführung nach den Fig. 1 und 2 das Führungsrohr 6 parallel zu seiner Längsrichtung an einen Anschlag 8 anlegbar und gegen die Kraft der Feder 7 durch eine Längsverschiebung des Schwenkarms 2 bei geöffnetem Kabelgreifer 5 durch diesen hindurch verschiebbar und mit der Kabelführung 4 in Eingriff bringbar. Zur Rückwärtsverlagerung des Führungsrohrs 6 in seine Ruheposition bedarf es lediglich eines Zurückziehens des Schwenkarms 2 in seiner Ausgangsposition. Dazu ist kein gesonderter Eigenantrieb mit einer eigenen Steuerung für die Bewegungen des Führungsrohrs 6 erforderlich, sondern es kann zu diesem Zweck der bereits vorhandene Antrieb und die Steuerung des Schwenkarms 2, des Schwenkarmkopfes 3 und des Kabelgreifers 5 entsprechend erweitert und mitverwendet werden. Eine tatsächliche Erweiterung der Hardware ist zumeist nicht nötig, sondern es genügt eine entsprechende Programmierung zur Durchführung der nötigen Bewegungen, um ein neues Kabel, ausgehend von dem Kabelförderer, vollautomatisch in das Führungsrohr 6 zu überführen und mit dem Arbeitsvorgang fortzufahren.In contrast, in the execution of the Fig. 1 and 2 the guide tube 6 parallel to its longitudinal direction to a stop 8 can be applied and against the force of the spring 7 by a longitudinal displacement of the pivot arm 2 with the cable gripper 5 open through this slidably and with the cable guide 4 engageable. For the backward displacement of the guide tube 6 in its rest position, it only requires a retraction of the swing arm 2 in its initial position. For this purpose, no separate self-propulsion with its own control for the movements of the guide tube 6 is required, but it can be expanded and used accordingly for this purpose, the existing drive and the control of the swing arm 2, the Schwenkarmkopfes 3 and the cable gripper 5. An actual expansion of the hardware is usually not necessary, but it is sufficient to program the necessary movements to perform a new cable, starting from the cable conveyor, fully automatically in the guide tube 6 and continue with the operation.

Das Führungsrohr 6 hat zu diesem Zwecke einen Kabeldurchlass, der an dem der Kabelführung 4 zugewandten Ende hohlkegelig erweitert ist, wobei die Kabelführung 4 an dem dem Führungsrohr 6 zugewandten Ende kegelig verjüngt und dadurch selbstzentrierend mit dem Führungsrohr 6 in Eingriff bringbar ist. Auch sehr dünne und hochflexible Kabel können dadurch nach dem Einführen in die Kabelführung 4 mit Hilfe des Kabelförderers vollautomatisch bis an das vordere Ende des Führungsrohrs 6 vorgeschoben werden. Anschließend wird der Schwenkarmkopf 3 von dem Anschlag 8 zurückgezogen und das Führungsrohr 6 entlastet, wobei es durch die Kraft der Feder 7 in dem Schwenkarmkopf 3 nach vorn verschoben wird, bis sein Ringbund an einem Anschlag des Schwenkarmkopfes 3 anschlägt. Das Führungsrohr 6 befindet sich damit in seiner Arbeitsposition und ist dazu geeignet, das zu konfektionierende Kabel programmgesteuert den einzelnen Bearbeitungsstationen zuzuführen.The guide tube 6 has for this purpose a cable passage which is widened at the end facing the cable guide 4 hollow cone, wherein the Cable guide 4 tapers conically at the end facing the guide tube 6 and thereby self-centering with the guide tube 6 can be brought into engagement. Even very thin and highly flexible cables can be advanced fully automatically to the front end of the guide tube 6 after insertion into the cable guide 4 by means of the cable conveyor. Subsequently, the Schwenkarmkopf 3 is withdrawn from the stop 8 and the guide tube 6 relieved, being displaced by the force of the spring 7 in the Schwenkarmkopf 3 forward until its collar abuts against a stop of the Schwenkarmkopfes 3. The guide tube 6 is thus in its working position and is adapted to supply the cable to be assembled programmatically to the individual processing stations.

Die Kabelführung 4 und das Führungsrohr 6 haben einen Innendurchmesser, der nur geringfügig größer ist als der Außendurchmesser des zu konfektionierenden Kabels. Das metallische Kabellitzen enthaltende Kabel kann daher auch von dem Kabelförderer durchschoben werden, wenn es von nur geringem Durchmesser und großer Flexiblität ist.The cable guide 4 and the guide tube 6 have an inner diameter which is only slightly larger than the outer diameter of the cable to be assembled. The cable containing metallic cable strands can therefore also be pushed through by the cable conveyor if it is of only small diameter and great flexibility.
