Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Field of industrial application] The present invention relates to a feeding reel used in wiring work for wire cables, CD tubes (wire cable flexible tubes), etc. flight,
The present invention also relates to a feeding reel that takes up less space when stored.

[Conventional technology]

Generally, when wiring electric wires, etc., the wires are wound compactly in advance so that they can be easily stored and carried, and the worker stretches the ends of the wound wires to the required length while wiring. I often do
Also, by doing so, it becomes easy to store and reuse the remaining parts, and it is convenient because the wiring work can be done smoothly without the wires getting tangled.

By the way, the same process is used for wire cables and CD tubes (flexible wire cable tubes), but in these cases, the elasticity is stronger than that of many other electric wires, so they tend to spread outward. The winding pattern tends to collapse, and in that case, the cable cannot be fed out as necessary, so a means is needed to maintain the proper winding pattern of the wire cable or CD tube during wiring and piping. Conventionally, in this case, the wiring work was
This work used to be carried out by two people: a worker who does the wiring, and an assistant who holds the wire cables and CD tubes in place, but recently the way the wire cables and CD tubes are wrapped has become distorted. By using a feed reel that allows the operator to freely stretch the wire to the required length while holding it so that it does not move, it can be easily carried out independently.

Conventionally, this kind of pay-out reel for wire cables, CD tubes, etc. has been provided with a rotatable cable mounting stand having a predetermined size for placing wire cables in a wound manner, and a center portion of the mounting stand. When a wound wire cable, etc. is placed on the mounting table, an inner periphery restraining table having a height exceeding the required thickness of the wound wire cable, etc. is formed to suppress the inside of the wire cable, etc., and
On the outer periphery of the bottom plate, a plurality of outer periphery restraining members, which hold down the outer periphery of the wound wire cable, etc. and prevent the cables, etc. from spreading outward, are erected. In order to prevent the wound cable from scattering upward during stretching, a cable having a structure in which the top of the inner periphery suppression member and the top of the outer periphery suppression member are linked is often used.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, in addition to the above-mentioned wire cable feeding reel, many other tools and mechanical devices are required for wiring work such as electric wires. When the reel is assembled and stored as needed so that it can be used immediately, the reel itself is quite thick as mentioned above, so it occupies a considerable amount of storage space within the total storage space. However, in reality, each reel itself has enough space to place a wound wire cable, so most of the storage space of the entire reel is often wasted, and therefore the equipment is not stored properly. , Reduction of transport costs of machinery, etc.
There was a limit to the improvement of transfer efficiency.

In addition, in order to minimize wasted space when reels are stacked when storing, reel components are disassembled and each part is stored separately. When assembling the reel for use, the separately stored parts must be separated into unit components of the reel, which takes time before assembly begins, and as a result, work efficiency tends to decrease.

In addition, since the disassembled parts are simply stored as they are without any special effort, the volume is only divided, and there is a limit to how much space can be saved when storing the entire reel.

Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to be able to store items in a state suitable for storage (easy to load, arrange, and stabilize) when not in use, and to minimize the storage space as much as possible. It can be used immediately with only simple assembly work, improving work efficiency and reducing equipment transportation costs.
Wire cable, CD with simple structure and easy handling
We provide reels for dispensing pipes, etc.

[Means for solving problems]

This invention was created in view of the above points,
It has the following technical means.

That is, wire cables, wire cable flexible tubes, etc. 7 are wound on a platform 2 of a predetermined size.
A wire cable, a wire cable flexible tube, etc., which is made to be sequentially paid out outward without disturbing the winding pattern by placing the above-mentioned wire cable, etc. on the wire and pulling outward the feeding terminal 7' of the end portion of the wire cable, etc. In the feeding reel, the platform 2 is composed of two annular members 2a and 2b of a required thickness arranged on the inner and outer sides, and a wire cable is connected between the two inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b. a plurality of horizontal rollers 3 for reducing resistance as much as possible during feeding and achieving a smooth feeding mode;
While separately contacting the inside and outside of the wound wire cable etc. 7 placed on the mounting table 2,
Attaching the same number of vertical rollers as the horizontal rollers 3 to allow a plurality of vertical rollers 4 to be removably installed in order to suppress disturbances in the winding manner of the cables, etc. and to obtain a smooth feeding manner of the cables, etc. 7. The bars 5 are horizontally suspended at equal intervals and alternately, and a plurality of vertical rollers 4, which are removably installed on the vertical roller mounting bar 5 when in use, are removed from the mounting bar 5 when not in use. By storing the inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b horizontally in a removable manner, all of the horizontal roller 3, vertical roller attachment bar 5, and vertical roller 4 that constitute the feed reel when not in use. This is a feed-out reel for wire cables, wire cable flexible tubes, etc., characterized in that the wire cables are integrally stored within the thickness of the platform 2.

[Effect]

With the above configuration, during wiring work, the vertical roller 4
The winding wire cable and CD tube 7 are set on the stand 2 of the feeding reel body 1 which is set upright.
When the terminal 7' is pulled out as necessary, the wire cable etc. 7 in the winding manner is restrained by the vertical rollers 4 at several locations on the outer and inner peripheries, so that the winding manner is not disturbed. Furthermore, on the outer and inner circumferential surfaces, on the bottom surface of the vertical roller 4, the horizontal roller 3 rotates in conjunction with the pulling action of each of the above-mentioned workers, so that catching during feeding is minimized. Therefore, even a single person can perform the work smoothly. Upon completion of the work, remove the vertical roller 4 and remove the feed reel body 1.
is disassembled into a platform 2 and a vertical roller 4. The removed vertical roller 4 is stored in the mounting table 2.

At this time, since no external force acts on the inside of the platform 2, there is no need to use a special tool to screw them together tightly, and it is only necessary to screw them together with your fingers to the extent that the vertical rollers 4 do not wobble. By housing the vertical roller 4 in the platform 2, there is no protrusion on the front or back of the platform. That is, by storing the vertical roller 4 in the feeding reel main body 1,
The internal space of the platform 2 constituting the feeding reel that does not directly affect the storage space occupied by the reel body is reduced, but at the same time, the storage space occupied by the reel body is also reduced. As a result, the reel body becomes compact when stored, saving storage space, and the shape when stored is flat.
Wasted space during stacking can be saved as much as possible, and therefore storage space can be saved at a high level. By making the storage shape flat, storage operations such as stacking and arranging can be easily performed and work efficiency is improved.

Now, when in use, as mentioned above, all the elements constituting the feeding reel are integrally stored in the platform 2, so when assembly is required, it can be assembled as quickly as possible, and as mentioned above. As shown in the figure, assembly is easy because only hands and fingers are required without using any tools.

〔Example〕

Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the accompanying drawings. In Figures 1A and B, 1 is a wire cable, wire cable flexible tube (hereinafter referred to as CD tube).
The main body of the reel is shown. The feeding reel body 1
It has a stand 2 on which wire cables in a wound form, CD pipes, etc. are placed. The platform 2 has an inner side formed by arranging two annular members 2a and 2b of the same shape but with the same required thickness but different sizes such that the annular member 2a with the smaller diameter is surrounded by the annular member 2b with the larger diameter. It has a double structure of an annular member 2a and an outer annular member 2b.

In this embodiment, as shown in the figure, only the case where both the inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b are regular hexagons is illustrated, but the shape is not particularly limited to regular hexagons, and may be regular octagons or the like. When arranging the inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b, the opposing surfaces of the inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b are parallel to each other.
Further, each corner of the outer annular member 2b is arranged so that each corner of the outer annular member 2b is located on an extension connecting each corner of the inner annular member 2a and the center. A wound wire cable or the like is placed on the platform 2 between the inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b constituting the platform 2, and when the terminals of the wire cable are sequentially fed out as necessary, the wire cable A plurality of horizontal rollers 3 are used to smoothly transfer wire cables, etc. on the mounting table 2, and together with these horizontal rollers 3, the wire cables, etc. are wound so as not to disturb the winding manner while making a smooth transfer. Vertical roller attachment bars 5 of the same number as the horizontal rollers 3 are used to removably attach and erect a plurality of vertical rollers 4, which will be described later, which are erected so as to suppress the inner and outer sides of wire cables, etc. are arranged alternately, and at this time, the horizontal rollers 3 and vertical roller attachment bars 5 are arranged within the thickness of the inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b, respectively, and perpendicular to each side at the center position of each side. The horizontal roller 3 is connected to the inner and outer annular members by a vertical roller attachment bar.

In this embodiment, since the inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b are both regular hexagons, several horizontal rollers and the same number of vertical roller attachment members are alternately hung on each side to form the inner and outer annular members. An example of connecting members 2a and 2b is shown in FIG.

To explain the horizontal configuration of the horizontal roller 3 and the vertical roller attachment bar 5, as shown in FIGS. 1A, 2, and 3, the horizontal roller 3 has inner and outer annular members 2a, 2
The inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b are inserted through bolt through holes 2c pre-drilled in corresponding positions of b, respectively.
A bolt 3a that passes through a bolt 3a extending horizontally between them, is configured to be rotatable about the bolt 3a as an axis, and passes through the horizontal roller 3 from the outer annular member 2b side.
The inner annular member 2a is rotatably supported by a nut screwed onto the bolt 3a that reaches the inner annular member 2a, but is removably suspended laterally.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 4, the vertical roller attachment bar 5 is attached to a long plate member 5a having a length sufficient to be horizontally suspended between the inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b. This prevents disturbances in the winding of wire cables, etc. when being fed out, and also allows the cables to move smoothly, allowing them to be removed and stored when not in use. Nut 5b, designated 4, for removably attaching the vertical roller to meet the above requirements.
The vertical roller 4 is erected on the nut 5b, and the wound wire cable, etc. to be used is mounted on the stand 2.
The vertical roller 4 is arranged at a position such that it properly contacts the wire cable when placed on the wire cable, and its both ends 5', 5' are connected to the inner and outer annular members 2a, 2b.
They are fixed to each other by welding, etc., and then hung horizontally.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a plurality of vertical rollers 4 are positioned on the nut 5b of the vertical roller attachment bar 5 of the platform 2 configured as described above according to the winding mode of the wire cable. At the same time, the bolts 4a passing through the vertical rollers 4 are screwed together to set them upright.

At that time, when the nut 5b of the vertical roller attachment bar 5 is installed vertically, as shown in the same figure, a plurality of vertical rollers 4 are installed at the position set in advance according to the winding mode of the wire cable, etc. It is desirable to be able to arbitrarily select a nut 5b located at a position corresponding to the actual winding manner of the wire cable or the like among the nuts 5b.

Regarding the selection of the nut 5b, before setting the vertical roller 4 upright, the wire cable, etc. in a wound manner is tied down in advance so as not to disturb the winding manner, and the nut 5b is held in place on the platform 2 in that manner. By positioning and mounting the vertical rollers 4, it is easy to obtain the optimum standing position conditions for the vertical rollers 4 in this state. It can be released by pressing a wire cable, etc. Therefore, even if the pressed state of the wire cable, etc. in the wound form is released, the wire cable, etc. is prevented from spreading in the lateral direction, such as outward or inward, by the vertical rollers 4 at multiple locations on the outer periphery. Therefore, the winding mode of the wire cable, etc. is maintained to the extent that it can be properly fed out without much disturbance, and the vertical roller 4 and the horizontal roller 3, which are in contact with the wire cable, etc., are rotatably arranged. Therefore, when you want to pull the end 7' of the cable 7 to pay out the required length as shown by arrow P in Figure 7, the wire cable etc. may get caught on the platform. This allows for smooth feeding.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, in order to suppress upward disturbance of the winding pattern of the wire cable, etc., as shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 8, the heads 4a', 4 of the fixing bolts 4a of the vertical roll 4 are divided into inner and outer parts on the mounting table 2 with the wound wire cable etc. in between.
Connecting bar 6 that can be attached and detached with a bolt installed horizontally between a′
has been established. The connecting bar 6 has a length that allows it to be horizontally suspended between the inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b, and also has a plurality of bolt holes 6a that pass through the front and back sides thereof and are arranged in parallel along its longitudinal direction. A screw hole 4a'' is formed in advance in the head 4a' of the bolt 4a used when vertically erecting the vertical roller 4, and the connecting bar 6 is inserted into the head 4a' of the bolt 4a.
Position the bolt through hole 6a, place it, and tighten the bolt to fix it.

Therefore, the wound wire cable and CD tube are
Since it is surrounded by the plurality of vertical rollers 4 located on the inner and outer sides and the connecting bar 6, the winding mode can be maintained more reliably. Now, when the feeding reel main body 1 is to be put away and stored after use, if it is stored in a vehicle or the like in its used state, a large number of vertical rollers 4 protrude from the platform 2 as shown in Fig. 6, making it difficult to stack them. Also, when stacked, they occupy a considerable amount of wasted space, and each reel itself is large and requires a considerable amount of storage space.

Also, even if the vertical roller 4 is removed from the platform 2 without protruding to facilitate storage, if the removed vertical roller 4 is stored separately from the platform 2, it will be easier to assemble it for reuse. As mentioned above, there were some problems that made it impossible to start work.

Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention aims to facilitate the storage of the feed reel main body 1 when not in use, and all of the vertical rollers 4 protruding from the platform 2 are removed when stored. The device is not housed separately from the platform 2, but is housed integrally within the platform 2, and is housed in such a way that it can be easily assembled for reuse.

That is, as shown in FIG. 1, when forming the platform 2, an internal space sufficient to accommodate a plurality of vertical rollers 4 is provided in advance in the platform 2.

The present invention secures sufficient internal space for the platform 2 as a double structure consisting of two inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b having a required thickness, and furthermore, in order to keep this internal space as wide as possible, This is precisely why we used the mounting bar 5, which stands up horizontal rollers 3 and vertical rollers, to ensure smooth transition of the wire cable, without providing a separate means for connecting the inner and outer annular members 2a and 2b. At the point.

Then, a storage nut 5c is screwed into a bolt 4a that fixes the vertical roller 4 to store the vertical roller 4 in a removable manner so that the vertical roller 4 can be easily assembled for reuse.
are provided in the mounting table 2 in the same number as the vertical rollers 4. In this embodiment, a case is shown in which the storage nut 5c is attached to the inner circumferential wall of the outer annular member 2b by welding or the like.

The operation will be explained below.

During wiring work, set the winding wire cable and CD tube 7 on the payout reel body 1 assembled in the used state as shown in Fig. 7, and pull out the terminal 7' as necessary to set the wire cable in the winding state. The wire cables, etc. 7 are restrained by vertical rollers 4 at several points on the outer and inner peripheries, and by connecting bars 6 at the upper part.
The winding pattern is not disturbed, and the bottom surface of the vertical roller 4 on the outer periphery and the inner periphery of the horizontal roller 3 is rotated by the rotational movement of each of the horizontal rollers 3 as the operator pulls them. Time lags, etc. are prevented as much as possible, and therefore even a single person can perform the work smoothly. Upon completion of the work, the vertical rollers 4 are removed and the feed reel body 1 is disassembled into the platform 2 and the vertical rollers 4.
The removed vertical roller 4 is screwed into the storage nut 5c in the platform 2 and stored. At this time, since no external force acts on the inside of the platform 2, there is no need to use a special tool to screw them together tightly, and it is only necessary to screw them together with your fingers to the extent that the vertical rollers 4 do not wobble.

By storing the vertical roller 4 in the platform 2, there is no protrusion on the front or back of the platform. That is, by storing the vertical roller 4 in the feeding reel main body 1, the internal space of the mounting base 2 constituting the feeding reel, which does not directly affect the storage space occupied by the reel main body, is reduced, but at the same time, the storage space occupied by the reel main body is reduced. will also become smaller. The reel body becomes compact when stored, and when trying to save storage space, the shape when stored is flat, reducing wasted space when stacking as much as possible, thus saving storage space. realized at a high level.

By making the shape flat during storage, storage operations such as stacking and arranging can be easily performed, and work efficiency is also improved. Now, when in use, as mentioned above, all the elements constituting the feed reel are integrally stored in the platform 2, so when assembly is required, it can be assembled as quickly as possible.
Moreover, as mentioned above, it is easy to assemble because it requires only hands and fingers without using any tools.

[Effect of idea]

As can be seen from the above, the present invention is based on a wire cable wound on a platform of a predetermined size.
A wire cable or wire cable in which a wire cable flexible tube, etc. is mounted and the wire cable, etc. is sequentially paid out outwardly without disturbing the winding pattern by pulling outward the feeding terminal among the ends of the wire cable etc. In a reel for feeding out flexible tubes, etc., the above-mentioned platform is composed of two annular members of the required thickness arranged on the inner and outer sides, and wire cables, etc. are fed out between the two annular members on the inner and outer sides. A plurality of horizontal rollers are used to reduce the resistance when feeding as much as possible and to obtain a smooth feeding mode, and the wire cables are placed in separate contact with the inside and outside of the wound wire cable placed on the platform. In order to obtain a smooth unwinding mode of cables, etc. while suppressing disturbances in the winding mode, etc., vertical roller attachment bars of the same number as the above-mentioned horizontal rollers are installed, respectively, in order to allow a plurality of vertical rollers to be installed in a detachable manner. A plurality of vertical rollers are hung horizontally at intervals and alternately, and are removably installed on the vertical roller mounting bar when in use, and are removed from the mounting bar when not in use, between the inner and outer annular members. By storing it horizontally in a removable manner,
When not in use, the horizontal roller, vertical roller attachment bar, and vertical roller 4 that make up the feed reel are all housed in one piece within the thickness of the platform, so the size of the feed reel when stored is reduced. The size can be made considerably smaller than when in use, and therefore the reel itself can be stored in a smaller space.

This not only reduces the size when stored, but also allows the reel bodies to come into close contact with each other when stacked or lined up so that the component parts do not protrude around the main body. It is possible to eliminate unnecessary occupied space as much as possible, and it is possible to achieve a higher level of space reduction during storage.

By achieving a high level of space saving during storage, the number of items stored per unit number of transfers can be increased, and the cost of transporting tools and the like during piping work etc. can also be reduced.

At the same time, the storage work efficiency can be improved because the storage can be carried out in a state suitable for storage, such as easy stacking and arranging.

On the other hand, when in use, the disassembled parts are disassembled and made smaller for convenient storage when not in use, but the disassembled parts are not stored separately but are stored together with other parts in the main body, so it is not necessary to disassemble the parts. It doesn't take much time to assemble, so you can start assembling it right away.Moreover, it has a simple structure and does not require particularly advanced technology, so it can be assembled easily and quickly.Therefore, it can achieve a high level of work efficiency. can be maintained. During actual wiring work, the vertical rollers maintain the proper winding of the wire cable, and the vertical and horizontal rollers allow the cable to be smoothly fed out, making wiring work easy even for a single worker. . In this way, the present invention is practically useful.
