本発明はスプリングケーブルの製造方法、特に
金属バネを利用したスプリングケーブルの製造方
法に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a spring cable, and particularly to a method of manufacturing a spring cable using a metal spring.
スプリングケーブル又はコードは移動部又は回
転部の電力及び信号供給用として広く使用されて
いる。特に最近はロボツト用ケーブルとしての需
用が多く、その小型化や高温での使用等の要求が
強くなつてきている。 Spring cables or cords are widely used for power and signal supply of moving or rotating parts. Particularly recently, cables for robots have been in high demand, and demands for miniaturization and use at high temperatures have become stronger.
一般に、スプリングケーブルとしてのスプリン
グ力はビニル樹脂、ウレタン樹脂等の組成変形に
よる復元力を利用している。このため、ビニル樹
脂やウレタン樹脂のシース厚はスプリング力との
兼ね合いで薄くすることができず、スプリングケ
ーブルの小形化への大きな障害となつている。 Generally, the spring force of a spring cable utilizes restoring force due to compositional deformation of vinyl resin, urethane resin, or the like. For this reason, the thickness of the vinyl resin or urethane resin sheath cannot be made thinner in consideration of the spring force, which is a major obstacle to downsizing the spring cable.
又、組成変形によるこれらの材料の復元力は高
温状態では極端に小さくなり、40度以上の高温状
態で使用する場合には十分な注意が必要である。
特に垂直方向の伸縮で使用する場合には上部が伸
びきつてしまい復元力を失うのでスプリングケー
ブルとしての機能を失つてしまう。 In addition, the restoring force of these materials due to compositional deformation becomes extremely small at high temperatures, so sufficient care must be taken when using them at high temperatures of 40 degrees Celsius or higher.
Especially when used for vertical expansion and contraction, the upper part stretches too tightly and loses its restoring force, causing it to lose its function as a spring cable.
従つて、スプリングケーブルの高温状態での使
用や小形化に際しては金属バネのスプリング力を
利用することが考えられるが、従来は金属バネに
ケーブルを添わせ、テープ巻きして1本化する手
段をとつている為に、その製造に多大の工数を費
やしている。 Therefore, when using a spring cable in high-temperature conditions or downsizing it, it is possible to use the spring force of a metal spring, but conventionally, the method of attaching a cable to a metal spring and winding it with tape has been used. Due to its high quality, a large amount of man-hours are spent on manufacturing it.
本発明の目的は、前記した従来技術の欠点を解
消し、金属バネを利用したスプリングケーブルを
安価に能率よく製造する方法を提供するにある。 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to eliminate the drawbacks of the prior art described above and to provide a method for manufacturing a spring cable using a metal spring at low cost and efficiently.
即ち、本発明は、金属バネを挿入する側溝を有
するケーブルを形成し、該側溝に金属バネを挿入

して、当該側溝を加熱融着することを特徴とする
スプリングケーブルの製造方法である。 That is, the present invention forms a cable having a side groove into which a metal spring is inserted, and after or while inserting the metal spring into the side groove, the side groove is heated by a heat source prepared outside, and the metal spring is heated. This method of manufacturing a spring cable is characterized in that an electric current is passed through the metal spring itself to cause it to generate heat, thereby heating it from the inside as well, thereby heating and fusing the gutter.
以下、図面を参照しつつ本発明を具体的に説明

い。溝の大きさは挿入する金属バネの太さに応じ
て適宜決定する。 FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing two embodiments of a cable having a preformed metal spring insertion groove according to the present invention. After the required number of cores 3 are twisted together, they are extruded and covered with a plastic sheath 2 to form a cable. In this case, a groove 1 for inserting the metal spring is provided integrally with the plastic sheath of the cable and along the length of the cable (this is referred to as a side groove in the present invention). The structure of the side gutter may be a structure in which a plastic sheath protrudes from the cable body as shown in Figure 1A, or a structure in which a part of the sheath of the cable body is thickened as shown in Figure 1B. None, or a structure in which a groove is formed in that part may be used. Further, although FIG. 1 shows a structure in which a side gutter is provided at one location, the present invention is not limited to this, and a plurality of side gutter may be provided as necessary. The size of the groove is appropriately determined depending on the thickness of the metal spring to be inserted.
次に、このようにして成形した側溝1付きケー
ブルに第2図に示すように金属バネを挿入する。 Next, a metal spring is inserted into the thus formed cable with side grooves 1 as shown in FIG.
第3図に金属バネ4が側溝に挿入された後のス
プリングケーブルの構造を示す。 FIG. 3 shows the structure of the spring cable after the metal spring 4 is inserted into the side groove.

方法はスプリングケーブルの構造、シースの材質
等によつて種々の方法があり、夫々の場合に応じ
て最適な方法を用いればよい。 Next, for example, a heater shaped like a pipe cut in half vertically is inserted inside the spring cable.
Expand the diameter of the heater and apply a little pressure to the cable to heat the open part of the gutter, and at the same time, apply current to the metal spring, causing the metal spring itself to generate heat, heating the gutter from the inside, and opening it. At the same time, the entire groove is brought into close contact with the metal spring 4 to complete the spring cable. There are various methods of heating and fusing the groove portion depending on the structure of the spring cable, the material of the sheath, etc., and the most suitable method may be used depending on each case.
尚、側溝部の位置は、第4図に示すようにケー
ブル本体とケーブル本体との間に位置するように
構成してもよく、又、第5図に示すように、コイ
ル状に巻いたケーブルの外側に側溝部に位置する
ように構成してもよい。 In addition, the position of the side groove part may be configured so that it is located between the cable bodies as shown in FIG. It may be configured so that it is located in the side gutter outside of.
又、前記態様においては、金属バネを側溝に挿
入した後に側溝部を加熱融着する例を示したが、
本発明においては、金属バネを側溝に挿入しつつ
側溝部を加熱融着してもよい。 Further, in the above embodiment, an example was shown in which the side gutter portion is heated and fused after the metal spring is inserted into the side gutter.
In the present invention, the side gutter portion may be heat-fused while the metal spring is inserted into the side gutter.
