Definitions

  • the invention relates to a twisting device according to the preamble of claim 1, which comprises a feed device for feeding line ends of at least two lines and a rotatably mounted twisting head for twisting said lines.
  • the feeder has first jaws for clamping the line ends
  • the twisting head has second jaws for clamping the line ends.
  • the feeding device and the twisting head are movable relative to each other into a transfer position, in which the first clamping jaws and the second clamping jaws face each other.
  • the first clamping jaws are movable relative to one another in such a way that a distance between clamped line ends can be changed.
  • the invention further relates to a method for twisting at least two lines by means of a twisting device comprising a feeding device with first clamping jaws and a twisting head with second clamping jaws, according to the preamble of claim 12.
  • a twisting device of the type mentioned in addition comprises a controller which is connected to a drive for the first jaws and adapted for its control, such that the distance between clamped line ends is brought to an adjustable value prior to transfer to the twisting head , wherein this distance between the clamped line ends is selectable from at least two different values.
  • the second clamping jaws have mutually facing clamping surfaces which are essentially flat or d) comprise more than two, in particular more than three, half-shell-shaped notches for receiving one line end each. What has been said about the first jaws applies mutatis mutandis.
  • first clamping jaws in a clamping position are movable relative to each other such that a distance between two clamped line ends is variable. In this way, twisted pair cables can be made with differently spaced cable ends.
  • first jaws and / or second jaws are slidably mounted to each other for clamping a line end.
  • a precise clamping or precise compliance with a required distance of the line ends is possible.
  • first clamping jaws are mounted so as to be rotatable relative to each other for changing the distance of clamped line ends without influencing a clamping position. This results in a simple structural design for the feeder.
  • the distance between clamped line ends is brought by moving the first jaws in a clamping position before clamping the line ends in the second jaws of the twisting head to an adjustable value, this distance from at least two different values is selected.
  • the width b is at least 9 mm.
  • the gap between the fully opened first jaws 5a, 5b is at least 9 mm in a direction of movement A for changing the position of the clamped line end 2a.
  • Fig. 3 now shows an embodiment in which the clamping surfaces 9a, 9b are toothed.
  • the tooth height z is advantageously less than 3% of the height h or less than 10% of the diameter d, as a result of which the clamping surfaces 9a, 9b are still essentially flat and the line 3a or the line end 2a can be clamped at any position between the clamps 5a, 5b , Because of the teeth is clamping against the in Fig. 2 However, shown embodiment more effective.
  • An exemplary concrete twisting device is specified for twisting cables 3a, 3b having a cross section of 0.35 mm 2 to 2.5 mm 2 and can process cables with a diameter of up to 3 mm.
  • the jaws have a width b of 9 mm, whereby the center distance of the lines 3a, 3b is a maximum of 15 mm (see also the distance a in the FIGS. 5 and 6 ).
  • the tooth height z is 0.2 mm. Although these values are advantageous, they are not mandatory. If the twisting device can handle larger cables 3a, 3b, then the mass can be increased accordingly.
  • Thin lines 3a, 3b can be arranged to each other at a smaller line spacing a than lines 3a, 3b with a large outer diameter, which are in particular equipped with large-volume (crimp) contacts and seals. In this way, the lines 3a, 3b can be twisted to the greatest possible length.
  • first clamping jaws 5a..5d to be movable relative to one another in a clamping position such that a distance between three clamped line ends can be changed (see FIGS. 19 to 26 ). In this way, three-core twisted lines can be produced with differently spaced line ends.
  • Fig. 10 shows the feeding device 1 in a second state in which the first linear gripper 13a pivoted downward, the second linear gripper 13b is still pushed upwards and the jaws 5a..5d are still open.
  • Fig. 12 shows the feeder 1 in a further state in which the first linear gripper 13a pivoted together with the clamped line 3a upwards, the second linear gripper 13b pushed down and the jaws 5c, 5d are still open. In the area of the clamping jaws 5c, 5d, the line 3b is already arranged.
  • Fig. 13 shows the feeding device 1 in a further state in which the second linear gripper 13b has been positioned horizontally by means of the controller 7 and the drive 8 according to a required position of the line 3b.
  • Fig. 14 shows the feeder 1 in a further state in which the jaws 5c, 5d have been closed and have clamped the line 3b.
  • Fig. 15 shows the feeding device 1 and the twisting head 4 in a state in which the first linear gripper 13a is pivoted downward and the lines 3a, 3b are arranged at a required distance from each other.
  • Fig. 16 shows the feeder 1 and the twisting head 4 in a state in which the feeder 1 has been moved to a transfer position with the twisting head 4, in which the first jaws 5a..5d of the feeder 1 and the second jaws 6a, 6b of the twisting head 4 to each other stand opposite.
  • Fig. 17 shows the feeding device 1 and the twisting head 4 in a state in which the second jaws 6a, 6b of the twisting head 4 have been closed and the lines 3a, 3b clamp.
  • Fig. 18 shows the feeding device 1 and the twisting 4 in a state in which the first jaws 5a..5d of the feeder 1 are opened and the lines 3a, 3b were therefore passed to the twisting 4.
  • the first linear gripper 13a is already pivoted upwards, so that the feeding device 1 can be moved away from the region of the twisting head 4.
  • the lines 3a, 3b can be subsequently twisted in a conventional manner.
  • the distance between clamped line ends 2a, 2b is brought by moving the first jaws 5a..5d in a clamping position before clamping the line ends 2a, 2b in the second jaws 6a, 6b of the twisting 4 to an adjustable value.
  • at least two different values can be selected for the distance between the clamped line ends 2a, 2b.
  • the line ends 2a, 2b are detected by the feeder 1 individually one after the other and simultaneously by the twisting head 4 simultaneously and clamped.
  • the line ends 2a, 2b are also detected and clamped together by the feeder 1 at the same time.
  • a variable position of the first jaws 5a..5d before clamping the line ends 2a, 2b at a selected distance a corresponding between the line ends 2a, 2b set, and the first jaws 5a..5d are before clamping the line ends 2a, 2b in the second jaws 6a, 6b of the twisting 4 moves in a fixed predetermined position (see in particular the FIGS. 2 to 6 and the horizontal guide 15, with which the linear grippers 13a, 13b can be moved horizontally.
  • the distance a desired in the twisting head 4 is determined already during clamping by the feeding device 1, in that the linear grippers 13 a, 13 b move into a corresponding (variable) position when detecting the lines 2 a, 2 b (see in particular FIG Fig. 10 and Fig. 13 ).
  • the position of the linear gripper 13a, 13b in the transfer to the twisting 4, however, is fixed. That is, the linear grippers 13a, 13b are always moved to the same position for the transfer of the lines 2a, 2b in the twisting head.
  • first jaws 5a..5d before the Terminals of the line ends 2a, 2b are moved to a fixed predetermined position and a variable position of the first jaws 5a..5d before clamping the line ends 2a, 2b in the second jaws 6a, 6b of the twisting 4 according to a selected distance a between the line ends 2a, 3b is set.
  • first clamping jaws 5a..5d for clamping a line end 2a, 2b to each other displaceable and for changing the distance between the clamped line ends 2a, 2b without affecting a clamping position be rotatable to each other, as in the FIGS. 1 to 18 is shown.
  • first jaws 5a..5d are slidably mounted relative to one another both for clamping a line end 2a, 2b and for changing the distance of clamped line ends 2a, 2b.
  • the first jaws 5a..5d can be rotatably mounted to each other both for clamping a line end 2a, 2b and for changing the distance between clamped line ends 2a, 2b.
  • first jaws 5a..5d for clamping a line end 2a, 2b are rotatable relative to each other and for changing the distance between clamped line ends 2a, 2b are mounted to each other displaced without affecting a clamping position.
  • FIGS. 19 to 26 now schematically show an exemplary sequence for clamping (and twisting) of three lines 3a..3c.
  • the first clamping jaws 5a..5f are in an initial position, and a first line 3a is located in the region of the feeding device 1
  • Fig. 20 shows the arrangement in a state in which the jaws 5a, 5b have been moved up to the first line 3a and have detected or clamped.
