Description
FIELD

The disclosure relates to the field of mechanical techniques of a calendering device for cables, more particularly to a segmental calendering device for flexible flat cables.


BACKGROUND

The number of cables and the spaces between neighboring cables of a flexible flat cable could be selected according to technological demands. The kind of flexible flat cables has advantages of easy-connection, minimizing electrical products, reducing costs and raising production efficiency. The kind of flexible flat cables are widely applied between moving parts and a baseboard, between a PCB board and another PCB board, digital transmission lines of electrical equipment and televisions, etc. A flexible flat cable as a whole with an insulation film (polyimide film or other similar films such as PET film) applied usually has a plurality of single cables. The technology is that: when a traction device such as a rolling device is in operation, a plurality of winding rolls back out a plurality of cables and the cables are applied with insulation films as passing through an station of insulation film, and then the cables are cut according to a length of technological demands and further electrically connected to plug-in components.


As the industry knows, if the spaces between a plurality of cables remain unchanged, then it would result in the following technical problems: first, the volumes of plug-in components electrically connected to the cables become larger so that negative effects for product miniaturization as well as wastes of resources are raised; secondly, risks of short-circuit of cables are increased, especially the possibility of short-circuit becomes high when the spaces between the cables are decreased for reducing the size of plug-in components; third, welding qualities between cables and plug-in components are not reliable because cross-sections of the cables are rounded. Of course, if the parts connecting between the cables and the plug-in components are designed in form of flat shape and the cross-sections of the rest of parts remain in form of rounded shape, then the above technical problems could be solved. By designing the parts connecting between the cables and the plug-in components in form of flat shape, the reliability of connections between the cables and the plug-in components could be achieved and the overall volumes of plug-in components could be reduced. Even though the spaces between the cables are reduced, the phenomena of short-circuit would not occur because of limitations of the plug-in components. The spaces between those neighboring cables are significantly greater than the spaces between the parts connecting the cables and the plug-in components since the cross-sections of the rest of parts remain in form of rounded shape.


From the above descriptions, it is founded that the above technical problems could be completely solved if a calendering device capable of forming segmental flat regions on lengthways of a plurality of cables using a method of segmental calendering are provided. The method of segmental calendering means that a flat region and a round region alternately exist in form of one by one cycle. The flat region is the region generated by the calendering device using the method of calendering, and the rounded region is the non-flat region that is not generated by the calendering device using the method of calendering.


There are messages about the techniques of cable calendering in public Chinese patents. For example, the Chinese patent of public No. CN202070548U discloses “Metal wire calendering device directly driven by servo motors”. The aforementioned technical solution could be achieved by this patent. However, the technical contents of this patent are based on the method of calendering for designing the whole cable in form of flat shape. In other words, this patent does not teach the method of segmental calendering. Similarly, the Chinese patent of public No. CN203591994U discloses “Lead wire rolling mill”, which is not capable of designing cables in form of segmental flat regions.


The number of cables varies within a variety of products. Therefore, it is necessary to manufacture a number of flexible flat cables according to their electrical performances. However, in this condition, it is inconvenient to use flexible flat cables since the specifications of flexible flat cables become complicated and the commonality of flexible flat cables is reduced. Moreover, the spaces between conductors of existing flexible flat cables are controlled and arranged by a spacing-control rod. However, the spaces between conductors are controlled fixedly by the spacing-control rod. It means that a single spacing-control rod is only capable of achieving a single specification of space for flexible flat cables. It is necessary to replace the spacing-control rod with another spacing-control rod if it is desired to producing flexible cables having variable specifications of spaces. Another technical problem is that the changes on the spaces between conductors could not be achieved in a single flexible flat cable, and it results in limitations of structural designs of products. In view of this, the Chinese patent (CN205355693U) discloses “Flexible flat cable conductor controlling means that arranges”. The device of this Chinese patent includes two guide pillar fixed plates, two bush fixed plates, two displacement cylinders, a fixed plate, two component boards, two transmission pieces and an interval wheel set. The left component board is disposed on the top of the left bush fixed plate, the left transmission piece is installed on the left component board, and the left displacement cylinder and the right displacement cylinder are fixed to the fixed plate. The right component board is disposed on the top of the right bush fixed plate, and the right transmission piece is installed on the right component board. The fixed plate is positioned and fixed to the left guide pillar fixed plate and the right guide pillar fixed plate. The left displacement cylinder is connected to the left transmission piece, and the right transmission piece is connected to the right displacement cylinder. The left bush fixed plate and the right bush fixed plate are respectively connected to the left guide piece and the right guide piece through a bearing. The technical solution of this patent is that variable conductions outputted by the cylinder are provided to the component boards, transmission pieces and guide piece for achieving PIN wheel set. The technical solution of this patent achieves the productions of flexible flat cables having variable conductor spaces, but the controlling effects provided the technical solution is not good enough. The outputs of the cylinders could not be controlled precisely and it would result in problems of broken conductors and deviations of spaces.

The left end of the upper-calendering roller shaft 141and the lower-calendering roller shaft 142 are connected to the Schmidt parallel coupling 194.


The operation of the motor 191 is slowed down by the first speed reducer 192 and the second speed reducer 193 driven by the first speed reducer 192. The pair of second output shafts 1931 of the second speed reducer 193 drives the upper-calendering roller shaft 141 and the lower-calendering roller shaft 161 to operate through the Schmidt parallel coupling 194. The upper-calendering roller 14 is disposed on the supporting mechanism 15 of the upper-calendering roller 14 through the upper-calendering roller shaft 141, and the left-supporting base 152 for the upper-calendering roller 14 of the supporting mechanism 15 of the upper-calendering roller 14 slidably operates with the pair of left-rolling sliding guide mechanisms 12, and the right-supporting base 153 for the upper-calendering roller 14 of the supporting mechanism 15of the upper-calendering roller 14 slidably operates with the pair of right-rolling sliding guide mechanisms 13, so sometimes the upper-calendering roller 14 moves toward the lower-calendering roller 16, or sometimes moves departing from the lower-calendering roller 16. That is a performance of up-down movement. Specifically, when the upper-calendering roller 14 moves downward, with the operation of the lower-calendering roller 16, a plurality of cables 101 (as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4) could be rolled as passing through the upper-calendering roller 14 and the lower-calendering roller 16. On the contrary, the rolling process for the cable 101 would be terminated.


Please refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 in combination with FIG. 1and FIG. 2, the bracket fixing screw hole 1114 on the left wallboard 111 and a bracket 102 connected to a fixing screw on the right wallboard 112 are given. A guide roller 1021 and a tension roller 1022 are disposed on the bracket 102. A plurality of cables 101, having round cross-sections, move from left to right between the upper-calendering roller 14 and the lower-calendering roller 16 (as shown in FIG. 3) under the operations of a traction device or a rolling device. After the cables 101 move out of the upper-calendering roller 14 and the lower-calendering roller 16, an insulation film of an insulation film roll 103 is placed onto the cables 101. When the cables 101 pass through the upper-calendering roller 14and the lower-calendering roller 16, the cables 101 present in form of the structure shown in FIG. 4 according to the above descriptions of FIG. 2. In other words, a flat region 1011 and a non-flat round conductor region 1012 are formed on the cables 101. The flat region 1011 and the round conductor region 1012 alternately exist in form of one by one cycle. There is no doubt that the flat region 1011 is rolled by the upper-calendering roller 14 and the lower-calendering roller 16. The round conductor region 1012 represents the round sections of the cables 101. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the cables 101, having rounded sections of a diameter of 0.3 mm, are rolled to be a flexible flat cable having a flat region of thickness of 0.115 mm.


Please refer to FIG. 5, the plurality of cables 101, applied with an insulation film 1031, are cut into segments according to actual demands, such that the flat regions 1011 on two ends of the cables 101 are capable of being welded with other plug-in components. The middle region having round sections is the original structure of the cables 101. Electrical clearances could be achieved by spaces between the cables 101, so that short-circuit could be avoided at in-use state.


According to professional knowledge, in the condition that the rotation speeds of the upper-calendering roller 14 and the lower-calendering roller 16 remain unchanged, the changes on the line speeds of the cables 101 would correspondingly result in changes on the number of the flat region 1011 within the range of lengths of the cables 101. On the other hand, in the condition that the line speeds of the cables 101 remain unchanged, the changes on the rotation speeds of the upper-calendering roller 14 and the lower-calendering roller 16would correspondingly result in changes on the number of the flat region 1011 within the range of lengths of the cables 101.


In the above embodiments, the pair of left-rolling sliding guide mechanisms 12 and the pair of right-rolling sliding guide mechanisms 13 are respectively disposed within the left rolling chamber 1111 and the right rolling chamber 1121, and the upper-calendering roller 14 is rotatably disposed on the supporting mechanism 15 of the upper-calendering roller 14slidably operating with the pair of left-rolling sliding guide mechanisms 12 and the pair of right-rolling sliding guide mechanisms 13. Thereby, when the power mechanism drives the upper-calendering roller 14 to operate, the upper-calendering roller 14 performs in form of up-down movement, with operation of the supporting mechanism 15 of the upper-calendering roller 14. Thereby, each of a plurality of cables passing through an area between the upper-calendering roller 14 and the lower-calendering roller 16 can form a structure along the longitudinal direction of said cables that have round cross-sections, with said structure having flat regions and non-flat, round regions alternatively arranged. The cables could be easily welded with other flat and small plug-in components after cutting into segments. Since the distances of the electrical clearances on the non-flat regions of neighboring cables is capable of remaining greater than the distances of the electrical clearances on the flat regions, the phenomena of short-circuit could be avoided at in-use state. In brief, in the segmental calendering device for the flexible flat cable of the present disclosure, an ideal balance is obtained between the condition that the cables 101 could be easily welded with other plug-in components and the condition that short-circuit could be avoided.

The structures of flat shape are able to meet the demands for reliability of electric connections between the flexible flat cable 2 and other plug-in components. The flexible flat cable 2 is formed by molding the plurality of round cable segments 21 via a sub-rolling performed by the segmental calendering device. The flexible flat cable 2 has the advantage of low costs. Moreover, cable slitting could be adjusted according to clients' demands so that product specifications are reduced and the inventory risk is decreased. Furthermore, the flexible flat cable 2 has a plurality of baffles 23 disposed on two opposite ends of each of the plurality of round cable segments 21.
