Definitions

  • This invention relates to apparatus for winding wire around objects, and more particularly for applying a tensioned wrapping of wire in the production of pre-stressed pipe.
  • Among the objects of the invention is to provide an apparatus for wrapping a rotating body With wire having a known tension and for maintaining the tension during the entire wire Wrapping operation.
  • Another object is to provide a compact apparatus for tensioning a wire and for applying the tensoned wire as a helical winding about a rotating body.
  • Another object is to provide a Winding apparatus with a closed system through which the torque required to rotate an object being wrapped is balanced by a restraining torque acting upon the supply portion of the wire so that only a relatively small amount of power is required for accomplishing a winding operation.
  • Another object is to provide a wire winding apparatus employing a oating sheave by which tension is applied to a loop of wire intermediate a source of supply and an object being wrapped with the wire and wherein control is eiected to limit the extension of the loop and accompanying movement and displacement of the oating sheave during a Wire Winding operation.
  • Another object is to provide an apparatus capable of Winding wire under tension without injuring the wire or causing damage to any coating that it may have.
  • Another object is to provide a device for rotatively supporting a hollow core and for transmitting a rotating torque to the core, said device including a rotatable member engaging the exterior of the core and centering the core and a flange extending from the member inwardly of the core and supporting an inflatable element in contact with the interior of the core.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a machine whereby a pre-stressed pipe may be constructed which has been wrapped under an exact tension.

  • the principle of the present invention is useful in the production of pre-stressed pipe in which great strength is obtained and great economy eiiected by winding high tensile Wire under high tension about a pipe core, thereby compressing the core.
  • the wire must be wrapped evenly and uniformly around the core under a denite predetermined tensicn and in a manner that will assure no loss of tension at any stage of the Winding operation. rI'he machine of this invention accomplishes this result. It also has the advantages of a compact organization capable of efficiently applying a tensioned Wrapping about any object.
  • All of the operating mechanisms and the object being wrapped are mounted and contained within an open box-like frame made up of structural steel elements, as shown in the drawings.
  • the object-supporting means is designed to accommodate a pipe core, such as a steel or concrete sleeve-like member, I shall refer herein to the object being wound as a core, it being understood that this term is used Without limitation and to identify any object about which a tensioned Winding is applied.

The carriage is locked in the core-supporting position illustrated in Figs. 1B and 2B during a wire-winding operation.
  • Figs. 5 and 6 illustrate the manner which the left end of the core is supported by plate I I and flange I3.
  • the core illustrated includes v'an'outer steel cylinder with joint rings welded thereto and an interior body of concrete. The end of the core is ,seated against plate II, and flange I3 engages the circumference of 'the bearing ring of the core.
  • a ring 28 is xedly mounted 'on plate II, concentrically with flange I3. About this ring there is mounted a pneumatic tube 29 having a valve stem 34 by which it may be linflated.
  • the pneumatic tube is ⁇ cllistended by inflation to provide a rm connection between the interior "of th'e core 'and ring 28, as illustrated in Fig. l6.
  • This manner of mounting and securing the core in place in the apparatus affords means for firmly gripping the core whereby the core-rotating torque is transmitted from flanged plate iI to the core during a wire-winding operation.
  • 'A gripping connection similar to the pneumatic,V tube and ring may be used with plate I2 at the lother end of the core, but this is not indispensable since spindle I6 rotates freely in its bearings and the core is 'adequately supported by flange I4.
  • the drive for rotating the core originates from I 'a variable speed motor 3
  • Shaft 34 is affected by a torque substantially 'equal and opposite to the core-rotating torque as will be explained hereinafter.

Sevieral turns of the wire are placed about the tapered ⁇ drurn andronly sufcient restraintis applied Aby brake 42 to cinch the vwire about the drum. The drum is restrained against Vfree rotation but rotates suiciently to supply wire for application to the core. Wire-tensioning means is provided intermediate the drum and the core.
  • the wire leaving the drum passes over an idler 44 which guides the wire to a floating sheave 45 from whence it is delivered to a travelling guide-sheave 46 and then through an opened adjustable'clamp 41 to the core.
  • the end of the wire is attached to the core by an anchor 48.
  • the core has been rotated a few times, during which travelling sheave 46 has vmoved to the right from a left hand position.
  • Sheave 46 is inounted'u'pon a carriage consisting 4 of a frame 49 supported at its ends by pairs of rollers 50, 5I. These rollers bear upon the inside anges of a pair of I-beams 52, 53 and travel thereover. These I-beams are parallel to the core and extend lengthwise of the apparatus for guiding the sheavela sufficient distance to wrap the longest 'core that may be mounted in the apparatus.

  • Bearings 5e and GI, which support shaft 58, are adjustable lengthwise of the machine for controlling the tension in chain 56.
  • ATravelling sheave 46 is moved by chain 62 which operates as an endless chain having its ends connected to carriage frame 49 at G3 and 64.
  • the chain passes over a Vsprocket G5 at the right end of the apparatus.
  • This sprocket is mounted on a shaft 66 journalled in adjustable bearings '6l and 68 by which the tension in chain B2 may be set.
  • the upper reach of the chain between sprocket wheels 56 and 65 is supported against sagging on a web of a longitudinally extending I-beam 69.
  • the desired 'tension is applied to the loop of wire intermediate drum 43 and the core by restraining force applied to floating sheave 45.
  • This sheave is rotatably mounted upon a vertical shaft I6 which extends upwardly from 'a carriage 'fr'ame II having pairs of rollers 'I2 and I3 engaging upper and lower flanges of channel members 74, l5.
  • These channel members are part of the main frame and extend longitudinally thereof.
  • -A cable 'I6 is attached to the carriage by a yoke "Il fastened to shaft 1G.
  • VCable E6 passes over an idler sheave I8 and has "attached to its lother end a spring 'I9 from which a weight 86 is supported.
  • the amount of vmass represented by weight yBtl may be varied, as desired, by plac- 'ing l3cr removing additional weights, it being understood that the total mass required must be 'sii'ch as to effect a pull upon cable 'I6 equal to 'twice the amount of the tension desired in the wire being wound about the core.
  • Shaft 34 has keyed to it a gear 82 which meshes with a gear 83 which is keyed to sleeve 84 of a differential unit, as best illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4.
  • Sleeve 84 carries a bevel gear 85 of a differential gearing. Since the shaft I5 and the shaft 34 are directly connected together by the sprocket chain 38, and the sleeve 84 is directly connected to the shaft 34 by the gears 82 and 83, the gear 85 ofthe differential gearing is driven at a speed proportional to the speed of the shaft I5 but in the opposite direction.
  • Gear 85 is engaged by bevel pinions 86 which are individually mounted on thrust bearings 81 carried by a spider worm gear 88.
  • Fig. 4 Four of these bevel pinions and thrust bearings are shown in Fig. 4. These bevel pinions 88 are engaged by a bevel gear 89 which is fast to a sleeve 99 to which tapered drum 43 is keyed. Spider worm gear 88 is carried by a differential housing 3 I, 92, which is attached to sleeves 93, 94, and bears on bronze bushings for free rotation about sleeves 84 and 99.
  • the differential unit is located on shaft I5 by a pair of collars 95 and 96 which are pinned to the shaft.
  • the rotation of spider worm gear 88 and its housing is controlled by a motor 91 which operates a worm 98 having engagement with the spider worm gear,
  • the direction of rotation of the motor 91 is such vas to drive the spider worm gear 89 in a clockwise direction as viewed from the right of Fig. 2A.
  • the wire is wound about the core I8 from left to right, some of the elongation of the wire between the drum 43 and the core II) is compensated for by the travel of the guide sheave 48 to the right, but the normal stretching of the wire is greater than the lineal travel of the guide sheave 45.
  • stops may be carried by carriage 1I or any other part which is movable in response to the movement of the carriage as, for example, Weight 80.
  • carriage 1I As the wire leaving drum 43 elon- 6, gates, floating sheave 45 will move to the left under the pull of weight 88 and when stop IDU comes into contact with switch 99 the motor 91 is operated to lessen the rate of rotation of drum 43, whereupon weight 88 will be gradually raised until stop IOI comes into contact with switch 99 and causes the motor 91 to decrease the speed of rotation of the spider worm gear and thereby increase the speed of the drum 43.
  • Drum 43 is continually rotated during a wire winding operation, but its speed of rotation is periodically diminished for moving floating sheave 45 to the right. matically controlling the drive for drum 43.
  • the speed of rotation of the drum 43 can be controlled by constant or intermittent operation of the motor 91. It is preferred to use a variable speed motor 91 and to run the motor continuously. If a variable speed motor is used, it can be operated continuously to maintain a proper balance of the speed of the drum and of the core automatically to correct for changes in position of the sheave 45. Stops I0@ and 8l cause acceleration and deceleration, respectively, of the motor 91 to cause a hunting of the average running speed. If a direct current motor is employed, for example, a variable resistance can provide the electrical control. A constant speed motor may be used to operate the spider worm gear 88. If a constant speed motor is employed, its running speed should be greater than the average running speed required. In that case stops
  • the core-driving torque of shaft I5 is derived from shaft 34 by means of sprocket connection 3B and is balanced through shaft 34 by the reacting torque transmitted from drum 43 to shaft 34 by the differential unit and gears 82 and 83.
  • This arrangement provides a closed system of torques and although ninety horsepower might otherwise be required to rotate a core against a desired wire tension, in this closed system only a relatively small motor 3l is required for overcoming the inertia and friction of rotating parts.
  • the auxiliary motor 31 is likewise relatively small since the relative speeds of drum 43 and core II] are nearly the same. Although the torque at this motor is high, the actual speed is extremely low with resultant low horsepower.
  • guide sheave 48 While a wire-winding operation is taking place, guide sheave 48 will travel lengthwise of the machine at such a speed as to impart a desired pitch to the wire about the core.
  • sheave 45 When sheave 45 reaches the other end of the cere the operation of the machine is stopped and clamp 41 is adn justed by a thumb piece I3? to prevent the wire from losing tension in the machine when the wire is cut below clamp 41.
  • metallic sleeves of the type described in United States Patent 2,375,921 may be used, but any anchor suitable for fastening the wire may be employed. After the tensioned wire is fastened to the core, the wire may be cut between the core and the locked clamp 41. The next core to be wrapped with wire is rolled into and secured to the machine.
  • the recently cut wire below clamp 41 is fastened to the newly positioned core and with the spacing mechanism reversed the core is tension-wrapped as previously described, except that it is wound from right to left. Since in winding the core from right to left the lineal travel of the guide Switch -99 provides a means for auto-A asfzavos sheave 46 adds to the corrective .compensation required for the stretching of the wire, the speed of rotation of the drum 43 will have to be slower than its speed of rotation during winding of the core from left to right.
