  • a reference measurement in step a by means of a belt drive serving as a cable feed the cable is advanced through a first gripper to below a cutting / Abisoliermesser which cuts the cable
  • step b the cable advanced by a tape drive, wherein the leading cable end is moved under a cable end detector, and in step c by means of the first gripper, the cable is held and with a linear backward movement, the cable is withdrawn until the leading end of the cable leaves the cable detector.
  • the EP 1 403 983 A1 known, which relates to a cable processing machine with a pivoting device.
  • the EP 0 788 200 A2 to name which is directed to a cable tray device.
  • a gripper for a cable processing device is from the EP-A-1447888 known. It forms part of a swivel arm, through which the front end of a cable, which is supplied from the rearward direction, to be assembled, at least one laterally adjacent one
  • EP 0 788 200 A2 known, which relates to a cable storage device, in which a swinging out of a swivel arm at the same time initializes a discharge of a cable in an associated cable tray.
  • the EP 1 079 479 A1 is directed to a cable storage device, wherein a first Jardin Installations Offices- and Separêtil for the separated transfer of double crimping cables in the emptying position of a first cable tray in lsbarem engaged with a located in a second, located below the first cable tray, in the longitudinal direction laterally movable cable tray trough Wreitenvier entries- and Separêtil can be brought.
  • the invention is based on the object to provide a device for semi or fully automatic production and subsequent assembly of a cable section at its front and rear ends.
  • the transfer of the cable section hanging from the gripper of the second pivoting arm into the collecting channel begins only after the tail end has been assembled and the second pivoting arm has been transferred to a position above the latter Collecting trough, if no other aids are used for this purpose.
  • At least the cable transporter, the swivel arms, the grippers contained therein, the packaging stations and the cable divider are in each case operated programmatically, which makes it possible to automatically generate a freely selectable number of exactly cut cable ends, which are assembled at both ends and e.g. are provided with CrimpCountianon and collect these cable ends superimposed in the collecting channel ready to ship. It is possible to place under the collecting channel a storage channel into which the collecting channel can be deducted after processing an order and continue the further cable production and packaging immediately afterwards with the follow-up order.
  • the first and second swivel arm with the respective gripper and with the respective at least one confectioning station each can form a self-contained functional unit, which opens up the possibility that both functional units are operated independently of each other overlapping in time. This means that after the end of a power stroke, the already provided with a crimp contact front end of the next cable immediately transferred through the gripper of the second pivot arm on the conveyor belt and a finishing of the rear end can be made while already causing the assembly of the front end of the next cable becomes. This means a significant reduction of the power stroke.
  • the conveyor belt, the collecting channel and the cable chute form a modular unit and can be extended by at least one further, correspondingly designed, modular unit.
  • the first and second pivoting arm can each form a self-contained functional unit with the respective gripper and with the respective at least one confectioning station, wherein both functional units can be actuated independently of each other overlapping in time.
  • the swivel arms can in the EP-A-1447888 correspond to the type described or similar functioning designs, wherein it has proved to be useful when the gripper of the first pivot arm is disposed above the pivot arm and the gripper of the second pivot arm below the pivot arm.
  • the safety of the cable guide is thereby simplified and improved.
  • a guide means for the front end of the cable is provided below the second pivot arm, which ensures that the pushed by the Jardintransporteur front end of the cable on the conveyor belt comes to the filing.
  • This guide device can by a skid o.ä. be formed.
  • the conveyor belt has a speed which is slightly greater than that of the cable conveyor. This ensures that the lying on the conveyor belt end is always tightened in itself.
  • the lead The conveyor belt should be 2 to 10%, on the one hand to ensure a well-tightened cable tray and on the other hand to prevent uncontrollable jumping or transverse rolling of the cable on the conveyor belt, which can occur if the lead is too large.
  • the cable section is transferred after the completion of its rear end final or total in the collection trough.
  • a final transfer results automatically when the collecting trough and the at least one confectioning station are assigned to the second pivoting arm on the same side, in the other case, the transfer in a separate step is made only after the cable end is ready made.
  • the held in the gripper of the second pivot arm rear end is pivoted laterally beyond the conveyor belt in the direction of the collecting trough, wherein the hanging between the gripper and the conveyor belt section passes the edge of the conveyor belt in the direction of the collecting trough and under the action of progressively knowbeuzaden conveyor belt progressively into the collecting trough. If the front end has reached the storage in the collecting channel, then the gripper of the second pivot arm is opened and the rear end is dropped into the collecting channel. The second gift arm is then moved back into its normal position in mirror image to the first pivot arm.
  • the collecting channel in the direction away from the cable chute or the conveyor belt signal-controlled hinged be designed to allow easy removal of the ready-made cable ends.
  • the collecting channel is hinged into a storage channel.
  • the ready-made cable ends can be bundled and made ready for despatch.
  • the conveyor belts of all modules have expediently only a motor drive, which is provided with a regulation for on-demand, stepless change in the take-off speed of the conveyor belt.
  • the operational reliability with regard to the assembly of cables of different diameters and different flexibility can be significantly improved thereby.
  • all collecting channels of the modules for synchronous operation by separate motors are hinged, the signal-controlled with a common supply line are connectable.
  • the motors can be formed by compressed air cylinder.
  • each conveyor belt in the lateral direction is limited by a vertically upwardly projecting web. This prevents a stored on the conveyor cable uncontrollably falls over the side edge and tangled in the collecting channel.
  • the web can have a height of about 5 to 15 mm, consist of a rubber-elastic material and be formed integrally with the conveyor belt.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation obliquely from above a method for producing and subsequent assembly of a cable section with a front and a rear end, in which a cable 1 by means of a
  • the packaging station 10 and the collecting channel 11 are arranged on the same side of the second pivot arm 6 in the described design. It has the advantage that the severed cable section is transferred already during the assembly of its rear end in the confectioning station 10 in the collecting trough, ie without this requires a separate step.
  • the device used in this case comprises a cable transporter for feeding a cable 1 into a confectioning device 3, viewed in the direction 4 of the cable 1, two mutually mirror-inverted in their basic position pivot arms 5, 6, each with a gripper 5.1, 6.1 for the cable 1, in each case at least one in the pivoting range of the pivot arms 5, 6 laterally adjacent confectioning station 7, arranged in the pivoting range of the second pivot arm 6 conveyor belt 8 for removing the cable and a parallel thereto extending collecting channel 11, a arranged between the pivot arms 5, 6 cable separator 9, and a controller, by at least the Jardintransporteur 2, the pivot arms 5, 6, the grippers 5.1, 6.1 of the pivot arms 5, 6, the confectioning stations 7, 10 and the cable separator 9 are mutually actuated.
  • the Jardintransporteur 2 consists of two friction rollers or belts, which are pressed from opposite sides of the cable 1 and have a motor drive, which allows the cable 1 signal-actuated advance or stop.
  • a cable chute 12 is arranged in order to prevent cable ends from entering the intermediate space between the conveyor belt and the collecting channel in an uncontrolled manner can.
  • the cable chute 12 is not required if the collecting channel 11 is arranged so close to the conveyor belt 8, that a reliable transfer of the cable from the conveyor belt 8 is ensured in the collecting channel 11.
  • the collection channel 11 is formed in the direction away from the cable chute 12 and the conveyor belt 8 signal-controlled hinged down. After preparation of the prescribed number of ready-made cable ends thereby the removal of the finished cable bundle is easier.
  • the collecting channel 11 can be folded down into a storage channel 13, in which the cable bundle produced can be made easier to ship, while the collecting channel is already used again for the processing of a new order.
  • the conveyor belt 8, the collecting channel 11 and the cable chute 12 form in the example shown, a modular unit that can be extended by at least one further, correspondingly designed, modular unit as needed to make ready and bundle cable ends of any length ready made.
  • all module-like units by at least one quick coupling 14 are connected to each other and synchronously actuated to prevent a long bundle of cables when emptying the collecting channel 11 confused.
  • the conveyor belts 8 of all modules have only a motor drive 15 that is provided with a regulation for demand-based, stepless change in the take-off speed of the conveyor belt 8.
