Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for winding and unwinding cables on a cable drum with a portal-like support frame, which is provided on a crossbar with two hanging support arms, which are adjustable in their distance from each other and each have a fixed arm part and at least one telescopically have a lifting drive from a lower receiving position into an upper winding position of longitudinally movable arm part, wherein at the free end of each longitudinally movable arm part there is a rotatably mounted spindle pin pointing towards the other support arm for receiving the cable drum.
  • a device of the type described above is known from US Pat. No. 3,687,385.
  • the advantage of this known winding device is that the support arms always Starting from a given winding position determined by the shortest arm length, cable drums of any size can be accommodated within certain diameter ranges.
  • the disadvantage of the known device is that the support arms are rigid except for their telescopic longitudinal movement and the spindle pin, so that the cable drum and winding device must be exactly aligned with each other in order to be able to insert the spindle pin into the center holes of the cable drum when it is picked up.
  • Positioning devices conceivable for large cable drums in particular offer no solution if, for example in the case of heavy cable drums in wooden construction, the lateral limiting disks are offset against one another after repeated use and thus the side openings on the cable drum itself are no longer in alignment.
  • a winding device for cables in which a support provided with a drive is movably guided up and down on two vertical side supports and in which the spindle journals are suspended in the support, each support in each case a separate drive is provided, with the help of which the spindle pin is raised by a small amount and which is locked in relation to its oscillating movement.
  • the supports are then raised overall to the specified winding position via the drive of the supports.
  • the known device is very complex and requires additional controls to operate the individual functions.
  • the invention is based on the object of improving a device for winding and unwinding cables of the type described at the outset in such a way that cable drums with side openings which are not exactly aligned can be accommodated without additional drive means.
  • each support arm with at least one arm part in the unloaded state is supported to a limited extent in a longitudinally movable manner in a spring-free manner independently of the lifting drive in relation to the support frame, in that each spindle journal is limited to and fro transversely to the longitudinal direction of the associated support arm is movable and that locking means are provided for locking the longitudinal movement on the support arm and the transverse movement of the spindle pin in the winding position.
  • the longitudinal and transverse movement can be accomplished, for example, in that the fixed arm part is connected to the crossbar via a spring element, which allows both free deflection up and down in the unloaded state, as well as the pivoting movement in relation to the spindle pin by a corresponding one Pivotal movement of the entire arm allowed.
  • the longitudinally displaceable telescopic arm in the winding position via the drive device for example one Adjusted spindle raised, then the spring element is pressed together when reaching the winding position and here the upper end of the support arm is drawn into a locking opening, so that a rigid connection between the crossbar and support arm is then made.
  • each spindle pin is pivotally connected to the free end of the longitudinally movable arm part transversely to the longitudinal direction of the support arm and that locking means for fixing the spindle pin in the winding position are arranged at the free end of the fixed arm part.
  • a further arm part in the form of a telescopic guide is arranged at the free end of the longitudinally movable arm part, in which a supporting pin connected to the bearing housing of the spindle pin is guided in a longitudinally movable manner and is supported on the telescopic guide via spring elements.
  • This configuration has the advantage that both the limited spring movement in the longitudinal direction of the arm and the transverse movement of the spindle pin for this purpose take place in the region of the free end of the support arm.
  • the spring elements required for the longitudinal movement can be made much weaker because they have to carry a much lower weight, so that the spring forces to be overcome when "threading" into the side holes of the cable drum and thus the transverse forces caused thereby are significantly lower.
  • the telescopic guide is connected to the support pin pivotably about a horizontal axis with the longitudinally movable arm part.
  • the bearing housing of the spindle pin is pivotably connected to the part of the support arm which can be moved longitudinally and with limited elasticity about a vertical axis.
  • This solution can be used both for configurations in which the support arm is resiliently connected to the support frame in the longitudinal direction, as well as in arrangements in which the displaceable arm part is resiliently supported or a resilient telescopic guide is provided at the free end of the displaceable arm part .
  • the spindle pin is supported in its central position with respect to its pivoting movement by means of centering springs. This arrangement is particularly advantageous when the bearing housing of the spindle pin is pivotally connected to the support arm about a vertical axis. This ensures that the tips of the spindle pins are exactly aligned with each other in the receiving position.
  • the vertical pivot axis of the bearing housing is arranged on the end of the bearing housing facing away from the spindle pin tip and that the end facing the spindle pin is supported in a link-shaped opening on the arm part.
  • the locking means for determining the movements of the spindle pin each by a counter the free arm end open fork-shaped approach is formed on the fixed arm part, which encompasses the bearing housing of the spindle pin when reaching the winding position.
  • the spindle pin is spherical in the area of its largest diameter. This embodiment has the advantage that the spindle pin can be inserted into the side openings without being forced when the two support arms move together, even when the receiving holes are not aligned in the side windows of the cable drum, so that the cable drum can then be properly aligned when it is lifted.
  • the winding device shown in Fig. 1 has a support frame 1 which can either - as shown - be firmly connected to the building floor 2, or can be provided with a chassis, not shown here.
  • a support frame 1 which can either - as shown - be firmly connected to the building floor 2, or can be provided with a chassis, not shown here.
  • two support arms 4 are slidably mounted and can be moved in mirror image to the central axis of the support frame 1 by a drive, not shown here, for example a spindle with left-right thread (double arrow 5).
  • the support arms 4 each consist of a fixed arm part 6 and a telescopically guided in the fixed arm part 6 longitudinally movable arm part 7, on the free end of which a spindle pin 8 is rotatably mounted.
  • the spindle pin 8 can be guided by the above-described transverse movement in the direction of arrow 5 against a cable drum 9 positioned between the two support arms 4 and each inserted into the side hole of the respective side plate 10 of the cable drum 9.
  • the movement of the longitudinally movable arm part 7 takes place in the illustrated embodiment via a lifting spindle 11, which is connected to a corresponding lifting drive, not shown here.
  • the lifting drive is designed so that the lifting spindles 11 of the two support arms 4 can be driven synchronously. The lifting movement will be explained in more detail with reference to FIG. 2.
  • a support arm 4 is shown in different working positions.
  • position a) the support arm 4 is shown in the winding position, ie the spindle pin 8 has reached its highest position with respect to the bottom 2, ie the arm part 7 which can be moved longitudinally is held in the highest possible position via the lifting drive of the lifting spindle 11.
  • the movable arm part 7 is lowered by a small amount.
  • This position shows the location for the largest possible cable reels, i.e. the position in which the spindle pin 8 - as will be described in more detail below - is unlocked with regard to its mobility. From this illustration it can also be seen that the lifting spindle 11 is held in a spindle nut 12 which is fastened to the upper end of the longitudinally movable arm part 7 and which is supported on the inside of the fixed arm part 6 via support rollers 13. At the lower end of the fixed arm part 6, support rollers 14 are arranged, which protrude through corresponding recesses into the interior and support the longitudinally movable arm part 7 in this area.
  • Fig. 3 in the direction of arrow A in Fig. 2 c) the design of the spindle pin holder is shown in a larger scale.
  • a further arm part 15 is arranged at the free end of the longitudinally movable arm part 7, which is telescopic.
  • the outer arm part 16 is tubular and held on the longitudinally movable arm part 7 via a hinge pin 17 in the plane of the drawing.
  • a support pin 18 is longitudinally movable but secured against rotation.
  • the support pin 18 is supported at its upper end via a spring element 19 on the tubular part 16, so that the support pin is resiliently movable up and down by the amount indicated by the arrow 20.
  • the support pin is connected to the bearing housing 21, in which the spindle pin 8 is rotatably mounted. Due to the oscillating suspension, the spindle pin 8 can now pivot back and forth around the central position by the amount indicated by the double arrow 22.
  • the spindle pins 8 of the extended support arms 4 are now lowered to the required height. Now the two support arms 4 are moved against each other. Since the spindle pins 8 are movably connected to the support arms 4 both in the direction of the arrow 20 and in the direction of the arrow 22 (FIG. 3), the spindle pins 8 can also thread into the side windows 10 of the cable drum 9 in the event of misalignments between the receiving openings. If the two longitudinally displaceable arm parts 7 are raised via the lifting spindle 11 into the winding position shown in FIG. 2 a), the spring elements 19 on the further arm part 15 are first compressed by the weight of the cable drum, so that the spindle pin 8 is locked with regard to its free longitudinal mobility is.
  • FIG. 4 and 5 another embodiment for the spindle journal bearing is shown. While in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, the transverse movement of the spindle pin 8 takes place by pivoting about the horizontal axis defined by the pivot pin 17, in the embodiment described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5 the arrangement is such that the spindle pin 8 by one vertical axis is pivotable.
  • the rear end of the spindle shaft 24 is rotatably mounted in a bearing housing 25 which, in turn, is horizontal relative to the longitudinally movable arm part 7 by a vertically oriented pivot pin 26 is pivotable.
  • the end of the journal shaft 24 facing the spindle journal 8 is supported in a bearing housing 27, which in turn is supported in a link guide 28.
  • the link guide 28 is formed by an elongated hole, which is provided on its two end faces with a compression spring sleeve 29, which is designed so that the spindle pin 8 is again held to a limited extent in the horizontal direction back and forth.
  • the spindle pin is centered by gravity, while in the embodiment according to FIGS. 4, 5 the centering is carried out by the two compression spring bushes 29.
  • the delimited resilient movement in the longitudinal direction of the support arm 7 can in turn - as described with reference to FIG. 3 - take place via a further arm part 15 with a telescopic guide or by a resilient support of the support arm itself.
  • FIG. 4 also shows an embodiment for the spindle pin 8, which is spherically shaped in the region of its largest pin diameter. As a result, the threading of the spindle pin 8 into the holes of the cable drum is still simplified.
