Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cable changing device and a method for locking the height of a cable rake that is height-adjustable relative to a cable feed device.
  • Cable changing devices are, for example, from the EP 1 213 800 B1 Such cable changing devices enable the production of partial cable harnesses with different cables. They keep several different cables (e.g. different cross-section, color of insulation, insulation material, etc.) in stock in a cable rake so that the cable required in each case can be automatically fed to the processing stations of a cable processing machine using a cable feeding device. The remaining cables in the cable changing device are usually secured by clamps. In order to feed a specific cable to the processing stations of the cable processing machine, the cable changing device moves to the appropriate height position (position in the Z direction) of the cable rake. The cable straightening unit and the cable drive of the cable feeding device are brought to the cable. The clamps of the desired cable are opened with motor-driven pins or compressed air cylinders so that the corresponding cable can be fed to the cable processing machine using the cable feeding device. Production of the individual cable for the partial cable harness can then begin.
  • cables e.g. different cross-section, color of insulation, insulation material, etc.
  • the disadvantage of this is that the corresponding height position is not optimally approached or set under unfavorable circumstances, i.e. there is a difference between the desired or set height position of the cable rake relative to the cable feed device and the actual height position of the cable rake relative to the cable feed device. This difference can lead to problems when handling or treating the cable in the cable feed device and/or to problems when handling or treating the cable in the cable processing machine.
  • a cable changing device comprising a cable rake for holding a plurality of cables at different heights, and a cable feed device for feeding one of the cables of the cable rake to a cable processing machine, wherein the cable rake is designed to be adjustable in height relative to the cable feed device such that, depending on the height of the cable rake relative to the cable feed device, the cable feed device can feed different cables of the cable rake to the cable processing machine, characterized in that the cable rake has height alignment elements and the cable feed device has height determination elements complementary to the height alignment elements, wherein the height alignment elements and the height determination elements are designed such that the cable rake is locked at one of a plurality of predetermined heights relative to the cable feed device when the height determination elements are connected to a part of the height alignment elements.
  • the height-adjustable cable rake can typically be precisely positioned and locked at different heights relative to the cable feed device.
  • the height of the cable to be fed to the cable processing machine can usually be set very precisely relative to the cable feed device. Consequently, after locking the cable rake by means of the height determination elements and the Height alignment elements the difference or difference between the desired or set height position of the cable rake or the cable that is held or guided by the cable rake relative to the cable feed device and the actual height position of the cable rake or the cable that is held or guided by the cable rake relative to the cable feed device is usually very small or very slight to no longer present.
  • a method for locking a cable rake, which is height-adjustable relative to a cable feed device, at the cable feed device, wherein the cable rake is designed to hold several cables at different heights, wherein the cable feed device is designed to feed one of the cables of the cable rake to a cable processing machine, wherein the cable rake is designed to be adjustable in height relative to the cable feed device such that, depending on the height of the cable rake relative to the cable feed device, the cable feed device can feed different cables of the cable rake to the cable processing machine, wherein the method comprises the following steps: - setting a height of the cable rake relative to the cable feed device; and - connecting height determination elements of the feed device to height alignment elements of the cable rake for locking the cable rake relative to the cable feed device at a predetermined height.
  • An advantage of this method is that the height-adjustable cable rake is usually precisely positioned at a predetermined height relative to the cable feed device arranged and locked.
  • the height of the cable to be fed to the cable processing machine is usually set very precisely relative to the cable feeding device. Consequently, after locking the cable rake by means of the height determination elements and the height alignment elements, the difference between the desired or set height position of the cable rake or the cable held or guided by the cable rake relative to the cable feeding device and the actual height position of the cable rake or the cable held or guided by the cable rake relative to the cable feeding device is typically very small or very slight to no longer present.
  • the height alignment elements of the cable rake have a plurality of depressions arranged at different heights and the height determination elements of the cable feed device comprise two projections, in particular the height determination elements of the cable feed device consist of two projections.
  • the cable feed device further comprises a labeling device for labeling the cable fed from the cable feed device to the cable processing machine.
  • a labeling device for labeling the cable fed from the cable feed device to the cable processing machine.
  • the cable rake has a reversibly compressible compensating connection element, in particular an elastomer body, wherein the compensating connection element is designed and arranged such that the compensating connection element can compensate for height differences between the cable rake and the cable feed device when the cable rake is locked to the cable feed device.
  • the compensating connection element is designed and arranged such that the compensating connection element can compensate for height differences between the cable rake and the cable feed device when the cable rake is locked to the cable feed device.
  • the cable rake is typically always in the set height position after locking, without mechanical stresses occurring in the height determination elements or in the height alignment elements.
  • the height alignment elements and the height determination elements are arranged on only one side of the cable rake. This generally prevents overdetermination of the height position of the cable rake in relation to the cable feed device in the locked height position, so that the occurrence of mechanical stresses is prevented in a technically simple manner.
  • the height determination elements of the cable feed device are arranged at two positions spaced apart from one another, wherein a height adjustment device for changing the height of the cable rake relative to the cable feed device is arranged between the two positions spaced apart from one another when the height determination elements are not connected to the height alignment elements.
  • This usually makes it particularly easy to align the cable held by the cable rake in a direction that corresponds to the feed direction of the cable feed device. This generally reliably prevents the cable rake from tipping over relative to the cable feed device.
  • each recess of the height alignment elements is limited in height by two cylindrical pins, the cable rake being locked in height on the cable feed device when the height determination element is received between two cylindrical pins.
  • This typically allows the cable rake to be locked in a predetermined height position on the cable feed device in a technically simple and particularly precise manner.
  • the height determination elements can usually slide over the outer surface of the cylindrical pins into the height alignment elements, whereby small differences in height between the set height position of the cable rake relative to the cable feed device and the desired height position of the cable rake relative to the cable feed device are compensated or minimized.
  • the height position of the cable rake relative to the cable feed device can typically change while the height determination elements slide over the outer surface of the cylindrical pins into the height alignment elements.
  • one of the height determination elements is part of a cable straightening station of the cable feed device for aligning the cable and one of the height determination elements is part of a cable drive for conveying the cable, wherein when the cable straightening station is closed and/or when the cable drive of the cable rake on the cable feed device is closed, the height determination elements are connected to part of the height alignment elements so that the cable rake is locked in height on the cable feed device.
  • the cable rake generally does not have to have any active elements for locking the cable rake in height, but the locking in a height position can be carried out by the cable feed device.
  • the height determination elements are generally connected to the height alignment elements of the desired height almost automatically and the cable rake is thus aligned and locked at the desired height.
  • front height alignment elements of the height alignment elements and rear height alignment elements of the height alignment elements are arranged between front cable clamps for clamping a part of the cable and rear cable clamps for clamping a part of the cable.
  • a locking in height between the height determination elements and the height alignment elements is carried out by closing straightening roller jaws of a cable straightening station of the cable feed device and by closing a cable drive of the cable feed device.
  • the advantage of this is that the cable rake does not have to have any active elements for locking the cable rake in height, but the locking in a height position is carried out by the cable feed device.
  • the height determination elements are generally connected quasi automatically to the height alignment elements of the desired height and thus the cable rake is aligned and locked at the desired height.

  • the remaining cables 3, 3' in the cable changing device 60 or in the cable rake 2 are each secured, for example, by cable clamps 6, 7 in the cable rake 2.
  • the cable changing device 60 moves the corresponding height position (position in Z direction 40; in Fig.1 or. Fig.2 running from bottom to top) of the cable rake 2 so that the cable feeding device 50 can feed the desired cable 3, 3' from the cable rake 2 to the cable processing machine.

  • the cylindrical pins 10, 10' can be pressed so deeply into the cable rake 2 that the The jacket surface of the respective cylindrical pin 10, 10' is flush with the remaining surface of the cable rake 2.
  • the cylindrical pins 10, 10 ⁇ can be made of a metal and/or a metal alloy, e.g. steel.
  • the height determination elements 16, 21 are each a pin-shaped projection.
  • the position in the Z direction 40 or the height position of the height determination elements 16, 21 can each be finely adjusted manually, i.e. their height position relative to the cable feed device 50 can be changed slightly (e.g. less than approx. 10 mm) manually.
  • the height determination elements 16, 21 of the cable feed device 50 are located only on one side of the cable rake 2. In Fig.1 or. Fig.2 The height determination elements 16, 21 are thus both located on the front side of the cable rake 2. This avoids overdetermination of the height position of the cable rake 2 and consequently the occurrence of mechanical stresses is prevented.
  • the cable drive 17 and the cable straightening station 12 each comprise a symmetry compensation 19 in order to align the elements of the cable drive 17 (in particular the belt drive 18) or the elements of the cable straightening station 12 (in particular the straightening roller jaws 13) symmetrically with respect to the cable.
  • the cable straightening station 12 also comprises a distance regulation in order to adapt the distance between the straightening roller jaws 13 to the diameter of the cable 3, 3', which is conveyed or moved by means of the cable feed device 50.
  • the cable feed device 50 On the side of the labeling device 1 facing away from the cable drive 17, the cable feed device 50 has a cable cutting device 30 with a knife 31 for cutting or severing the cable 3, 3' that is fed to the cable processing machine.
  • Fig.5 shows a perspective view of the compensating connecting element 23 of the cable changing device 60 from Fig.1 or. Fig.2 or. Fig.3 .
  • the cable changing device 60 or the cable rake 2 also has a compensating connection element 23.
  • the compensating connection element 23 is part of the height adjustment device 22 of the cable rake 2.
  • the slight differences between the height of the cable rake 2 relative to the cable feed device 50 set by means of the height adjustment device 22 and the height of the cable rake 2 relative to the cable feed device 50 when the height determination elements 16, 21 have been introduced into the height alignment elements 70-74 (ie when the height adjustment element 22 is in the Fig. 4a and Fig. 4b shown state has occurred) is compensated by the compensating connecting element 23 so that no mechanical stresses occur outside the compensating connecting element 23.
  • the compensating connecting element 23 has a spindle nut 24 and an elastomer body 25 as a compensating element on one of its undersides.
  • the elastomer body 25 can consist of a rubber and/or a foam, for example.
  • the elastomer body 25 can be compressed reversibly. This means that the elastomer body 25 returns to its original shape after compression once the applied force has been removed.
  • the height difference between the set height position by means of the height adjustment device 22 (before locking) and the actual height position in the locked state is compensated by compressing the elastomer body 25, if necessary, by the forces that occur. In this way, bending and/or material fatigue of the cable rake 2 and the other parts of the cable changing device 60 are essentially excluded.
  • the elastomer body 25 can in particular be cylindrical, wherein the elastomer body 25 has its greatest extent in the cable feed direction.
