In an embodiment, the machine comprises one or more pulleys can be configured between the wheel and the one or more second spools, and can be configured to facilitate smooth flow of the rope with a predefined taut.
In an embodiment, one or more spur gears can be supported by a vertical plate, and the vertical plate can be configured over the frame. In an embodiment, the wheel can be configured to attain a constant speed to facilitate twisting and the formation of rope.
In an embodiment, at least one of the plurality of first spools having the input threads can be positioned circumferentially around the wheel with pre-defined distance between two adjacent first spools. In an embodiment, one of the plurality of first spools having the input threads can be positioned at center of the wheel.
FIG. 1 illustrates an exemplary representation of the proposed rope making machine, in accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure. As illustrated, the proposed rope making machine can include a frame 102, a first driving unit 104 which can be configured on the frame 102, a wheel 106 which can be configured with a plurality of first spools 108 having input threads. The wheel 106 can be operatively configured over the frame 102. A transmission system 110 can be configured between the wheel 106 and the first driving unit 104, and can be adapted to transmit torque from the first driving unit 104 to the wheel 106 to facilitate rotation of the wheel 106. Rotation of the wheel 106 can enable twisting of the input threads to form the rope. The transmission system 110 includes first shafts 112 configured with the first driving unit 104, spur gears 114 can be operatively configured with the first shaft 112, and a second shaft 116 can be configured to hold the wheel106, and can be operatively configured with the spur gears 114 to transmit the torque from the spur gears 114 to the wheel 106. The spur gears 114 can be adapted to vary the torque transmitted, to the wheel 106, by the first driving unit 104. The first shafts 112 can include a gear 130 which can be operatively configured with the spur gears 114 to transfer the torque to the spur gears.
In an embodiment, the frame 102 can be made of C-section channels for assembly resulting in a compact structure. The machine 100 can include second spools 118 that can be configured to receive the rope, and the second spools 118 can be configured with a second driving unit 120 to facilitate the rotation of the second spool 118. The first driving unit 104 and the second driving unit 120 can include any or combination of a motor, and gears. The machine 100 can include pulleys 122 that can be configured between the wheel 106 and the second spools 118, and can be configured to facilitate smooth flow of the rope with a predefined taut. The spur gears 114 can be supported by a vertical plate 124, and the vertical plate 124 can be configured over the frame 102.
In an embodiment, the wheel 106 can be configured to attain a constant speed to facilitate twisting and the formation of rope. At least one of the plurality of first spools 108 having the input threads can be positioned circumferentially around the wheel 106 with pre-defined distance between two adjacent first spools 106. One of the plurality of first spools 108 can include input threads that can be positioned at center of the wheel 106. The first driving unit 104 can be mounted on a base 126 which further cam be fixed on the frame 102. The pulleys 122 can be mounted on a vertical side supports 128 to reduce down vibrations. The frame 102 can support all the components and can absorb vibrations to transfer it to the ground.
In an embodiment, the proposed disclosure can elaborate upon manufacturing of wire rope and, in particular, considering a 3 wired strand formation with six strands wound around single cored strand. The proposed machine 100 can be used to make main hard wired rope as well as soft as cotton ropes. This can be achieved using speed variations of the spur gears and tension arrangement using the pulleys 122. The use of varying speed for winding of soft and hard ropes can provide perfection in twisting of the rope obtained. Speed required for hard ropes can be less as compared to soft ropes since metal wires are hard and do not bend easily as compared to soft cotton or nylon ropes. Hence speed of wheel can be a major factor in twisting of strands at a point to form a rope. The speed at the collecting end can also play an important role in maintaining specific or predefined tension of the rope formed. The specific or predefined tension can be applied by using the pulley to maintain the tension at a predefined taut. The very high strength of the rope wires can enable wire ropes to support large tensile forces and to run over sheaves with relatively smaller diameters. The speed of the wheel can also be varied according to type of the rope to be formed. Hence a speed regulator can be used at both the ends i.e. at one or more first spool end and one or more second spool end.
In an embodiment, the present disclosure can use a main motor (also referred as first driving unit 104, herein) on the input side which can be fixed to supply the required torque. Since the first shafts 112 can be coupled with the main motor, it is necessary to mount a coupling with the first shafts 112 to further transfer the rotation motion. Torque amplifying and smooth motion spur gears can be used, where the load is less thus transmission cost can be reduced. Wheel 106 with bracket arrangement can be used to hold the plurality of first spools 108 on input side. The wheel 106 on the second shaft 116 can be allowed to attain a constant speed, which can be utilized for twisting and forming the rope.
Moreover, in interpreting the specification, all terms should be interpreted in the broadest possible manner consistent with the context. In particular, the terms "comprises" and "comprising" should be interpreted as referring to elements, components, or steps in a non exclusive manner, indicating that the referenced elements, components, or steps may be present, or utilized, or combined with other elements, components, or steps that are not expressly referenced. Where the specification claims refer to at least one of something selected from the group consisting of A, B, C ... .and N, the text should be interpreted as requiring only one element from the group, not A plus N, or B plus N, etc.
While the foregoing describes various embodiments of the invention, other and further embodiments of the invention may be devised without departing from the basic scope thereof. The scope of the invention is determined by the claims that follow. The invention is not limited to the described embodiments, versions or examples, which are included to enable a person having ordinary skill in the art to make and use the invention when combined with information and knowledge available to the person having ordinary skill in the art.
