[0012]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is an overall configuration diagram of an air core coil forming apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the air-core coil forming apparatus is generally configured by disposing a coating peeling portion 20, a lead feeding portion 30, a coil forming portion 40, a lead cut portion 50, and the like on a base 100. Then, a predetermined portion of the covering 11 (for example, polyurethane) is peeled off from the same covered wire 1 as described with reference to FIG. 12A, and the air-core coil 6 shown in FIG. 12B is formed. Is.
[0013]
The covering peeling portion 20 has a function of partially peeling the covering 11 of the covering wire 1, the lead feeding portion 30 has a function of feeding the covering wire 1 for a required length, and the coil forming portion 40 winds the covering wire 1. The lead core 50 has a function of forming a core coil, and the lead cut portion 50 has a function of cutting the coated wire 1 to a length necessary for forming the air core coil.
[0014]
Hereinafter, the detailed configuration will be described focusing on the configuration of the coating peeling portion 20 and the coil forming portion 40, which are the main components of the air-core coil forming device, among the above configurations.
2 and 3 are side views showing different operating states of the show peeling apparatus 20. In each figure, reference numeral 21 denotes a cutting head having a blade 21A for peeling off the covering of the covered wire 1 passing through the center portion by centrifugal force during rotation. An electric motor 22 rotates the cutting head 21 to generate centrifugal force.
[0015]
In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 22 </ b> A of the motor 22 is directly connected to the cutting head 21. For this reason, the rotating shaft 22A is formed in a hollow cylindrical shape so that the covered wire 1 can be passed through and supplied to the cutting head 21.
Reference numeral 71 denotes a first electric solenoid that moves the motor 22 and the cutting head 21 integrally in the axial direction to send out the covered wire 1 by a length necessary for peeling. In the first electric solenoid 71, the main body 71A is fixed to the fixed plate 24, and the tip of a shaft 71B that slides in the axial direction within the main body 71A is coupled to the flange 22B of the motor 22. The fixing plate 24 has a through hole 24A through which the motor 22 can be moved in the axial direction.
[0016]
As shown in the side view of FIG. 4A, the cutting head 21 has a hollow shaft body 21B at the center, and pivotally supports the intermediate portion of the blade 21A at a position away from the barrel in the axial direction. The annular part 21C and the annular part 21D for raising and lowering the rear end part of the blade 21A are fixed.
As shown in the right end view of FIG. 4C, three coating peeling blades 21A are arranged at 120 ° intervals in the rotational direction. As shown in the left end view of FIG. 4B, the annular portion 21D has an arcuate groove 21F that guides the rear end protrusion 21E of the three blades 21A.
[0017]
According to the cutting head 21 having the above-described structure, centrifugal force is generated when the annular portion 21D rotates, and the protrusion 21E is guided by the groove 21F and moves outward in the radial direction of the annular portion 21D. For this reason, the tip of the blade 21 </ b> A approaches the coated wire 1 and peels the coating 11 of the coated wire 1.
The rotating shaft 22A of the motor 22 is fixed to the shaft body 21B of the cutting head 21 by screwing or the like, so that the motor 22 and the head 21 are directly connected. For this reason, when the motor 22 is rotated, the entire cutting head 21 is rotated, and the blade 21 </ b> A peels off the coating 11 of the coated wire 1 by the centrifugal force generated at this time.
[0018]
In the configuration of this embodiment, even if the motor 22 and the cutting head 21 are directly connected, there is no hindrance to the supply of the continuous covered wire 1 because the rotating shaft 22A of the motor 22 has a hollow structure and passes through the rotating shaft 22A. This is because the coated wire 1 is supplied to the cutting head 21. The feeding of the covering wire 1 is controlled by the lead feeding unit 30. The lead feeding unit 30 is configured to be driven using the second electric solenoid 72 as a driving source.
[0019]
On the other hand, the first electric solenoid 71 determines the peeling length of the covered wire 1 by the stroke of the shaft 71B. The cutting head 21 in FIG. 2 is in a forward position together with the motor 22 because the shaft 71B of the first electric solenoid 71 protrudes.
On the other hand, the state of the cutting head 21 in FIG. 2 is in a retracted position together with the motor 22 because the shaft 71B of the first electric solenoid 71 is retracted. During this time, the motor 22 continues to rotate, and the covering 11 of the covered wire 1 is peeled off by the blade 21A for the stroke of the first electric solenoid 71.
[0020]
Thereby, as shown in FIG. 12A, the coating 11 at the tip is peeled off and the core wire 12A is exposed. As described above, the core wire 12B at the rear end shown in the figure is peeled off by the stripping after the lead wire 30 has sent the entire length of the covered wire 1 by a required length.
By the way, as is clear from the above description, the coating 11 is generated as waste by peeling off the coating 11 in the coating peeling portion 20. Therefore, in order to efficiently recover the peeled coating 11, a coating recovery box 25 as shown in FIG.
[0021]
As shown in the figure, the coating collection box 25 is disposed so as to surround the cutting head 21. The covering collection box 25 includes a wire outlet hole 25A for leading the covering wire 1 that has passed through the cutting head 21, an air introduction portion 26 for introducing the pressurized air A into the box 25, and an inside of the covering collection box 25. A recovery pack 27 for recovering the coated waste with the pressurized air A is disposed. The collection pack 27 is detachably attached to the covering collection box 25.
[0022]
Moreover, the air introduction part 26 is connected to the electric blower fan 28 via the connection pipe 26A. The electric blower fan 28 is configured to generate pressurized air A by rotating the fan with an electric motor (not shown).
By providing the covering collection box 25 in this manner, the covering debris peeled off from the covering wire 1 by the cutting head 21 does not separate out from the sealed covering collection box 25. In addition, the pressurized air A is introduced into the coating collection box 25, whereby the coating waste is collected in the collection pack 27 and can be easily removed by exchanging the collection pack 27 together. For this reason, it can prevent that the circumference | surroundings of the coating peeling apparatus 20 are soiled with coating waste.
[0023]
Next, the coil forming unit 40 will be described. The coil forming portion 40 is roughly composed of a shaft 41, a shaft holder 42, a stopper holder 44, a common motor 60, a gear box 80, a cam mechanism 90, and the like.
6 to 8 are enlarged cross-sectional views showing the vicinity of the shaft 41 of the air-core coil forming portion 40. FIG. In each figure, the shaft formed in the tip of the stepped portion 41A for winding the coated wire 1 41, 42 shaft holder for supporting the rear end of the shaft 41 in the rotational center, 43 stepped part 41A of the shaft 41 A coil stopper 44 that press-contacts the tip of the covered wire 1 is a stopper holder that supports the coil stopper 43 and is movable in the radial direction of the shaft 41.
[0024]
The shaft 41 is connected to the rotating shaft 61 of the common motor 60 via a gear box 80 described later, and is thus configured to be directly rotated by the common motor 60.
Reference numeral 45 denotes a compression coil spring that applies an elastic force in the direction close to the shaft 41 to the coil stopper 43 via the stopper holder 44, and 46 resists the elasticity of the spring 45 against the coil stopper 43 via the stopper holder 44. This is a fourth electric cylinder that applies force in a direction away from the shaft 41.
[0025]
The stopper holder 44 is formed with an elongated hole 44A so as not to hinder the movement of the shaft 41 in the radial direction. The spring 45 is accommodated in the elongated hole 44 </ b> A, and is interposed between the wall surface of the elongated hole 44 </ b> A and the convex portion 42 </ b> A protruding from the shaft holder 42. In the center of the bottom surface of the shaft holder 42, a circular hole 42B for mounting the rotating shaft 61 of the common motor 60 (see FIGS. 1 and 9) is formed.
[0026]
In the above configuration, the shaft 41 is connected to the rotating shaft 61 of the common motor 60 via a gear box 80 described later, and is thus configured to be directly rotated by the common motor 60.
Next, the operation of the coil forming unit 40 will be described. FIG. 6 is a state diagram of the workpiece loading / chuck opening in which the fourth electric cylinder 46 is turned on, the shaft 46A is protruded, and the stopper holder 44 is moved to the left side against the elasticity of the spring 45. .
[0027]
When the stopper holder 44 slides to the left side, the coil stopper 43 moves away from the shaft 41, and a gap is formed between the small diameter step portion 41 </ b> A of the shaft 41 and the coil stopper 43 so that the end of the wire 1 can be easily attached. However, since there is no gap larger than the diameter of the covered wire 1 between the coil stopper 43 and the large-diameter main body side of the shaft 41, the end of the covered wire 1 is securely held by this step portion, and the axial direction There is no deviation in the vertical direction in the figure.
[0028]
FIG. 7 is a state diagram of workpiece fixing / chuck closing in which the fourth electric cylinder 46 is turned off and the shaft 46A is pulled down in the state of FIG. In this state, the stopper holder 44 is slid rightward in the figure by the elasticity of the spring 45. For this reason, the coil stopper 43 approaches the step portion 41A of the shaft 41, and the end portion of the covered wire 1 is pressed between the step portion 41A and the coil stopper 43 and sandwiched.
[0029]
FIG. 8 is a state diagram in which the shaft holder 42 is rotated counterclockwise in the state of FIG. 7 to form the air-core coil 6 wound around the shaft 41A in a necessary number of turns spirally. The coil 6 can be detached from the step portion 41A of the shaft 41 by turning on the fourth electric cylinder 46 again and retracting the coil stopper 43 (chuck opening). In the air-core coil forming apparatus according to the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, since the step portion 41A of the shaft 41 is set downward, the coil 6 naturally falls by its own weight when the chuck is opened.
[0030]
Incidentally, in order to wind the coil 6 around the shaft 41 as shown in FIG. 8, the lead feeding part 30 and the coil forming part 40 are relatively moved in the vertical direction (directions indicated by arrows Z1 and Z2 in FIG. 1). There is a need. In the present embodiment, the coil forming portion 40 is fixed and the lead feeding portion 30 is moved to the arrows Z1 and Z2.
The lead feeding unit 30 is supported by vertically supporting columns 33 and 34 erected on the base 100 and is always urged in the direction of arrow Z1 by coil springs 31 and 32 inserted through the columns 33 and 34. It is set as the structure. Further, a follower 92 is disposed at the upper end of the lead feeding portion 30 and is configured to move in the direction of the arrow Z2 against the elastic force of the coil springs 31 and 32 by pressing the follower 92. ing. Further, a cam plate 91 of a cam mechanism 90 described later is engaged with the upper portion of the follower 92. Therefore, when the follower 92 is engaged with the cam plate 91, the movement of the lead feeding portion 30 in the arrow Z1 direction is restricted.
[0031]
Next, the gear box 80 and the cam mechanism 90 that function as a feed unit drive mechanism that drives the lead feed unit 30 will be described.
FIG. 9 is a view showing the internal structure of the gear box 80. As shown in the figure, the gear box 80 includes a case 81, a cover 82, a worm 83, a worm wheel 84, a drive shaft 85, and the like. Inside the case 81, a worm 83 and a worm wheel 84 are rotatably supported so as to be orthogonal to each other. The worm 83 and the worm wheel 84 are combined so as to mesh with each other.
[0032]
The common motor 60 is fixed to the cover 82 by screws after the cover 82 is screwed to the case 81. At this time, the rotation shaft 61 of the common motor 60 is inserted into the gear box 80 via the insertion hole 82 </ b> A formed in the cover 82 and is connected to the connection hole 83 </ b> A formed in the worm 83. . Therefore, the worm 83 is directly rotated by the rotation of the common motor 60.
[0033]
The shaft 41 is joined to the lower portion of the worm 83. Accordingly, the shaft 41 is joined to the rotating shaft 61 of the common motor 60 via the worm 83, and the shaft 41 is directly driven to rotate by the common motor 60 as described above.
On the other hand, a drive shaft 85 is integrally joined to the worm wheel 84, and the drive shaft 85 is connected to a cam mechanism 90 described later. As described above, the worm wheel 84 rotated by the common motor 60 is engaged with the worm wheel 84. For this reason, the rotational driving force of the shared motor 60 is branched to the drive shaft 85, and the rotation of the drive shaft 85 becomes a drive source for driving the cam mechanism 90.
[0034]
Next, the cam mechanism 90 will be described. The cam mechanism 90 includes a cam plate 91 joined to the drive shaft 85 and a follower 92 provided in the lead feeding portion 30 described above. As shown in FIG. 10, the cam plate 91 is, for example, a circular cam. However, the joint position with the drive shaft 85 is shifted from the center position of the cam plate 91 (that is, an eccentric cam structure). .
[0035]
Therefore, when the drive shaft 85 rotates in the direction of arrow B from the state shown in FIG. 10A to the state shown in FIG. 10B, the follower 92 is pressed by the cam plate 91 to cause the follower 92 to move to the arrow L in FIG. Move by the amount indicated by. Since the follower 92 is provided in the lead feeding part 30, the lead feeding part 30 resists the elastic force of the coil springs 31 and 32 when the follower 92 is pressed and urged against the cam plate 91. Move (down) in the direction. Further, when the cam plate 91 further rotates, the lead feeding part 30 moves (moves upward) in the direction of the arrow Z1 by the elastic force of the coil springs 31 and 32.
[0036]
With the above configuration, the lead feeding portion 30 moves up and down with a constant stroke L with respect to the shaft 41 of the coil forming portion 40, and the coil 6 previously shown in FIG. 8 can be formed.
At this time, in the present embodiment, the lead feed part 30 is configured to be movable up and down with respect to the shaft 41 of the coil forming part 40, and the common motor 60 provided in the coil forming part 40 is used as a drive source. The lead feeding unit 30 is driven up and down via 80 and the cam mechanism 90. The shared motor 60 also functions as a drive source for the shaft 41.
[0037]
Further, in this embodiment, a gear mechanism including a worm 83 and a worm wheel 84 is used to branch the rotation of the common motor 60 in two directions, and the cam plate 91 and the follower are used for the vertical movement of the lead feeding unit 30. The cam mechanism 90 consisting of 92 is used. The gear mechanism and cam mechanism 90 have a simple configuration and can ensure a reliable operation.
Therefore, the rotation drive of the shaft 41 and the vertical drive of the lead feeding unit 30 can be driven with high precision by one common motor 60, and the number of parts can be reduced. Simplification, miniaturization, and cost reduction can be achieved.
[0038]
Further, in the configuration of the present embodiment, the drive control of the lead feeding unit 30 can be easily performed by appropriately setting the gear ratio in the gear box 80 and the shape of the cam plate 91 in the cam mechanism 90. The air core coil 6 can be molded with high accuracy.
Further, when attention is paid to the driving devices for driving the coating peeling part 20, the lead feeding part 30, the coil forming part 40, and the lead cut part 50 constituting the air-core coil forming apparatus described above, in this embodiment, the above-described driving apparatus is used. All the constituent elements 20, 30, 40, 50 are configured to be driven by electricity.
[0039]
Specifically, the coating peeling unit 20 is driven by the motor 22 and the first electric solenoid 71. In addition, also when the cover collection box 25 shown in FIG. 5 is used, the electric blower fan 28 is used to generate the pressurized air A. In addition, the second electric solenoid 72 is used to feed the covered wire 1 in the lead feeding unit 30. In the coil forming unit 40, a stepping motor is used as the common motor 60, and the fourth electric cylinder 46 is used to move the stopper holder 44. Further, the lead cut portion 50 uses the third electric solenoid 73 as a drive source.
[0040]
Thus, it was necessary when air was used as a driving source as in the prior art by configuring each of the constituent elements 20, 30, 40, 50 constituting the air-core coil forming apparatus to be driven by electricity. Equipment such as a compressor can be eliminated, and equipment costs can be reduced. Further, unlike compressed air supply equipment such as a compressor, there are many power supply installation positions in the factory where the air-core coil forming apparatus is installed, so that the air-core coil forming apparatus can be easily moved.
[0041]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, various effects described below can be realized. According to the first aspect of the present invention, it is possible to drive the shaft around which the coated wire is wound with a single motor and to drive the lead feed portion up and down, thereby reducing the number of components and the air core. The configuration of the coil forming apparatus can be simplified, downsized, and cost can be reduced.
[0042]
Also, it is possible to drive the lead feeding unit with a gear mechanism and the cam is easy single configuration, also facilitates the driving control of the read feeding unit by setting the gear ratio of the gear mechanism and the shape of the cam suitably Therefore, the air-core coil can be formed with high accuracy.
