Description

本発明は、電線を所定の長さに切断して、端子およびマークチューブの取り付けを行う電線加工装置に関するものである。 The present invention relates to an electric wire processing apparatus that cuts an electric wire into a predetermined length and attaches a terminal and a mark tube.

例えば、配電盤や制御盤の配線用の電線を加工する作業は、作業者が図面を見て、所定の電線を選んで所定の長さに切断し、端子を圧着し、マークチューブを取り付けていた。配電盤等の配線の長さは、短いものは60mm、長いものは9000mmと様々なので、これらの作業を自動化することは困難であった。一方、自動車等の電装配線用のワイヤーハーネスの組立作業の分野においては、作業すべきワイヤーハーネスに対応した作業指示等を記憶手段から読み出して、作業者に音声で指示する組立作業支援システムが提案されている(特許文献1)。
特開2000−164050号公報
For example, the work to process the wiring wires for the switchboard and control panel was done by the operator looking at the drawing, selecting a predetermined wire, cutting it to a predetermined length, crimping a terminal, and attaching a mark tube . Since the length of wiring such as a switchboard is as short as 60 mm and as long as 9000 mm, it is difficult to automate these operations. On the other hand, in the field of assembly work of wiring harnesses for electrical wiring of automobiles, etc., an assembly work support system that reads work instructions corresponding to the wire harness to be worked from the storage means and instructs the worker by voice is proposed. (Patent Document 1).

しかしながら従来の組立作業支援システムは、所定の長さに切断された電線が部品として用意されていることを前提とするものであり、設計情報に基づいて、電線を所望の長さに切断することめで自動化するものではなかった。また、マークチューブを自動印刷するものでもなかった。したがって、従来のワイヤーハーネス用組立作業支援システムを配電盤等の配線用電線加工装置に適用しても十分な自動化ができないという問題があった。
本発明はこのような問題点に鑑みてなされたものであり、自動化するとともに作業を視覚化し、作業能率を向上することができる電線加工装置を提供することを目的とするものである。
However, the conventional assembly work support system is based on the premise that an electric wire cut to a predetermined length is prepared as a part, and cuts the electric wire to a desired length based on design information. It wasn't automated. Also, the mark tube was not automatically printed. Therefore, there is a problem that even if the conventional wire harness assembly work support system is applied to a wiring electric wire processing apparatus such as a switchboard, sufficient automation cannot be performed.
The present invention has been made in view of such problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an electric wire processing apparatus that can automate and visualize work and improve work efficiency.

上記の課題を解決するために、本発明は、電線を所定の長さに切断して、その端部に端子を圧着し、マークチューブを取り付ける電線加工装置において、電線の長さと前記マークチューブに記入するマークと加工作業の手順を記憶する記憶手段と、前記記憶手段から読み出した電線の長さのデータに従って電線を切断する切断機と、前記記憶手段から読み出した前記マークをマークチューブに記入するマークチューブ印刷機と、前記記憶手段に記憶されている作業手順を音声信号、表示信号又は画像信号で作業者に提示する出力手段を備えるものである。また、前記出力手段に作業指示灯を備え、前記作業指示灯の指示に従って前記作業者が操作を行うものである。前記作業者による作業準備が完了したことを、前記作業者が入力する作業準備完了入力手段を備えるものである。また、前記作業準備完了入力手段をキーボードとするものである。   In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention cuts an electric wire into a predetermined length, crimps a terminal to the end, and attaches a mark tube. A storage means for storing a mark to be entered and a processing procedure, a cutting machine for cutting the electric wire in accordance with the length data of the electric wire read from the storage means, and the mark read from the storage means are entered in the mark tube A mark tube printing machine and an output means for presenting the work procedure stored in the storage means to the operator by an audio signal, a display signal or an image signal. The output means is provided with a work instruction lamp, and the operator performs an operation in accordance with an instruction of the work instruction lamp. Work preparation completion input means for the worker to input that the work preparation by the worker has been completed is provided. The work preparation completion input means is a keyboard.

本発明によれば、記憶手段から読み出したデータによって、電線測長切断機とマークチューブ印刷機を自動運転するので、電線加工作業を省力化するとともに、加工時間を短縮することができるという効果がある。
また、記憶手段から読み出した作業手順を作業者に音声等で伝達するので、熟練していない作業者でも確実に作業を遂行でき、作業効率の向上、忘れ防止、品質向上を図る効果がある。
According to the present invention, the wire length measuring and cutting machine and the mark tube printing machine are automatically operated based on the data read from the storage means, so that the wire processing work can be saved and the processing time can be shortened. is there.
In addition, since the work procedure read from the storage means is transmitted to the worker by voice or the like, even an unskilled worker can reliably perform the work, and there is an effect of improving work efficiency, preventing forgetting, and improving quality.

以下、本発明の具体的実施態様について、図に基づいて説明する。   Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

図1は、本発明の実施例を示す電線加工装置の概略図である。図において、1は構内通信回線であり、2は電線データベースである。電線データベース2には、加工すべき電線の設計情報、すなわち、電線種類、電線サイズ、電線色、マークチューブサイズ、マークチューブ色、マークチューブに記載する記号および作業手順などが記憶されている。前記設計情報は図示しない上位システムの指示により、CPU3に読み込まれる。CPU3には、電線測長切断機4、シーケンサー5およびチューブ印刷機6が接続されている。またシーケンサー5には、複数の作業指示装置7と自動圧着機8が接続されている。作業指示装置7は、作業者が自動圧着機8を操作するための操作盤であり、図2に示すように、自己とまたは相手の端子を指示する圧着端子指示灯7a、7bと、CPU3の支配下での自動運転モードとCPU3から切り離して単独運転モードを切り替える切替スイッチ7cを備えている。   FIG. 1 is a schematic view of an electric wire processing apparatus showing an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, 1 is a local communication line and 2 is a wire database. The electric wire database 2 stores design information of electric wires to be processed, that is, electric wire types, electric wire sizes, electric wire colors, mark tube sizes, mark tube colors, symbols and work procedures described in the mark tubes, and the like. The design information is read into the CPU 3 in accordance with an instruction from a host system (not shown). The CPU 3 is connected to a wire length measuring and cutting machine 4, a sequencer 5, and a tube printing machine 6. The sequencer 5 is connected to a plurality of work instruction devices 7 and an automatic crimping machine 8. The work instruction device 7 is an operation panel for the operator to operate the automatic crimping machine 8. As shown in FIG. 2, as shown in FIG. A changeover switch 7c is provided that switches between the automatic operation mode under control and the independent operation mode by disconnecting from the CPU 3.

次に、電線加工機の動作を説明する。CPU3に読込まれた設計情報のうち、作業準備に必要な電線種類、電線サイズ、電線色、マークチューブサイズ、マークチューブ色がスピーカ3aとCRT3bにより作業者に音声と画像で伝達される。
作業者は伝達された設計情報に従って、作業に必要な電線およびマークチューブを準備する。準備が完了すると、作業者は作業準備完了信号をキーボード3cからCPU3に入力する。作業準備完了信号が入力されると、CPU3は電線の長さを電線測長切断機4に送信する。電線測長切断機4は電線を所定の長さで切断し被覆剥離を行なう。次にCPU3はCRT3bに加工電線に付加するデータを表示すると共に、スピーカ3aに音声で出力する。作業者はCRT3bの表示あるいはスピーカ3aの音声による指示に従って、マークチューブを電線の両端に取り付ける。次にCPU3は電線の両端に取り付ける圧着端子のサイズのデータをシーケンサー5へ送る。シーケンサー5は前記圧着端子のサイズに対応する自動圧着機8の圧着端子指示灯7a、7bを点灯する。作業者は圧着端子指示灯7a、7bが点灯している自動圧着機8に、電線の先端を挿入し、スイッチを入れる。このスイッチを入れると、シーケンサー5を介して、自動圧着機8へ圧着指示が行なわれる。端子圧着が行われると、CPU3は次の電線長データを電線測長切断機4に送る。このようにして順次、電線を加工する。
Next, the operation of the wire processing machine will be described. Of the design information read by the CPU 3, the electric wire type, electric wire size, electric wire color, mark tube size, and mark tube color necessary for work preparation are transmitted to the operator by voice and image by the speaker 3a and the CRT 3b.
The worker prepares electric wires and mark tubes necessary for work according to the transmitted design information. When the preparation is completed, the worker inputs a work preparation completion signal from the keyboard 3c to the CPU 3. When the work preparation completion signal is input, the CPU 3 transmits the length of the electric wire to the electric wire length measuring machine 4. The wire length measuring and cutting machine 4 cuts the wire at a predetermined length and peels off the coating. Next, the CPU 3 displays data to be added to the processed wire on the CRT 3b and outputs the data to the speaker 3a by voice. The operator attaches the mark tube to both ends of the electric wire in accordance with the display on the CRT 3b or the voice instruction from the speaker 3a. Next, the CPU 3 sends data on the size of the crimp terminal attached to both ends of the electric wire to the sequencer 5. The sequencer 5 lights the crimp terminal indicator lights 7a and 7b of the automatic crimping machine 8 corresponding to the size of the crimp terminal. The operator inserts the tip of the electric wire into the automatic crimping machine 8 in which the crimp terminal indicator lights 7a and 7b are lit, and turns on the switch. When this switch is turned on, a crimping instruction is given to the automatic crimping machine 8 via the sequencer 5. When the terminal crimping is performed, the CPU 3 sends the next wire length data to the wire measuring and cutting machine 4. In this manner, the electric wires are sequentially processed.

本発明は、電線を所定の長さに切断して、端子およびマークチューブの取り付けを行う電線加工装置として有用である。   INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION This invention is useful as an electric wire processing apparatus which cuts an electric wire into predetermined length and attaches a terminal and a mark tube.
