  • the straightening device 1 effects a directivity decreasing in the transport direction x of the cable 2 from the first rollers 20.1, 21.1 to the last rollers 20.6, 21.7.
  • the pneumatic cylinder 9 can be controlled via a valve.
  • the pressure of the pneumatic cylinder 9 and thus the force that presses the input side on the cable 2, can be adjusted via a pressure regulator.
  • the angle between the roller lines predetermined by the rollers of the roller rows 3, 4 is the second directional parameter.
  • This angle can be adjusted by means of the previously described pneumatic cylinder 9 or by means of a possibly manually operable (not shown) adjusting device for pivoting the lower roller plate 17.
  • the angular position between the rows of rollers 3, 4 could be set to a fixed value, which is usually between 0 ° and 5 °.
  • screws can be used, which is feasible when pivoting the lower roller plate in a corresponding slot.
  • the angle can also be detected by a measuring device and this measuring device can be connected to the control device 7 and a display device such that an incorrect angular position is displayed to the user.
  • a measuring device for pivoting the lower roll plate.
  • the user can adjust the angle by means of the adjusting device for pivoting the lower roll plate. Thanks to a corresponding display device, which can be carried out analogously to the already described, the role distance associated with the display device, the angle can be adjusted easily and without much effort.
  • EP 2 399 856 A1 which makes relatively high demands and therefore is expensive, could be dispensed with.
  • a socket 30 recognizable from the rear view of the straightening device 1 according Fig. 4 .
  • the socket 30 may for example be a digital interface to the (not shown) control device.
  • the measuring device 6 for detecting the distance between the rollers of the upper and lower roller row communicates via this interface with the control unit.
  • a compression spring 16 recognizable.
  • the Fig. 5a and 6a show the straightening device 1 in an open position.
  • the roles of the two rows of rollers 3, 4 are so far apart that a sufficiently large gap is created through which the cable can be inserted.
  • the roller rows are preferably first by means of a quick release comprising the quick release lever 31 against each other in the vertical direction.
  • the parallel rollers of the upper and lower roller row 3, 4 close to the cable, so that it is now possible to start with the actual setting of the straightening device 1.
  • the user can now turn the knob 19 of the setting 5 clockwise, causing the upper roller plate 18 is moved with the upper roller row 4 down against the lower roller row 3.
  • the user performs this relative feed movement by manual actuation of the adjusting device 5 until the rollers 20.1 .. 20.6 of the first row of rollers 3 and the rollers 21.1 .. 21.7 of the second row of rollers 4 contact the cable 2.
  • the user can determine the approximate contact by visual inspection. Then he checks the display device 8. When the error indicator 22 lights red, then the rows of rollers 3 and 4 are still too far apart.
  • the measured actual value for the distance d between the rollers 20.1 .. 20.6 and the rollers 21.1 .. 21.7 of the first and the second row of rollers 3, 4 with respect to the desired value for the roller distance d is in other words too high.
  • the user On the basis of the display device 8, the user thus indirectly receives the instruction to continue to turn the knob 19 in the same direction of rotation. He does this until the good indicator 24 of the display device 8 glows green. A Gutsignal is generated, indicating that the actual value of the roll distance matches the corresponding target value. If the user rotates too long on the rotary knob 19, the error indicator element 23 lights up red due to the small roller spacing.
  • the measured value for the roller spacing d is displayed with a digital display 25, the three LEDs of the error indicator elements 22, 23 and the good indicator 24 signal to the user whether he should close or open the straightening device 1 in order to achieve the desired setpoint for the roll distance.
  • the operator rotates the rotary knob 19 until the green LED of the good indicator element 24 lights up when the setpoint value is reached. Thereupon, the control unit 7 assigned to the machine control releases the production of the cable.
  • the active position, in which the straightening device 1 is set correctly, is in Fig. 5b and 6b shown. If necessary, after adjusting the roller spacing, the angular position of the roller rows 3, 4 can be changed in a conventional manner by switching on or automatic actuation of the pneumatic cylinder 9. The angular position of the rows of rollers 3, 4 could also be changed manually after a corresponding transformation of the straightening device 1 and adjusted in an analogous manner as the roller distance.
