Abstract

An automatically operated wire intake device is proposed for a wire enameling machine. In this machine the wire that is to be enameled is wound a number of times around roller blocks that stand at some distance from one another. The wire runs through the processing stations of the wire enameling machine a number of times by rotating around these roller blocks. With regards to the wire intake device, a displaceable slide block is positioned on a rotating transfer bar onto which the end of the wire is fastened, and which a pilot carries. Upon each rotation of the transfer bar this pilot comes into contact with a point arrangement which displaces the slide block by one "stage" to the side at each rotation, which displacement corresponds to the spacing of neighboring guide channels on the roller blocks.

Dependent claims

A wire intake device for a wire enameling machine in which wire that is to be coated and which is pulled continuously by an unwinding mechanism, is wound several times around a minimum of two roller blocks that stand at a distance from one another parallel to the axes thereof, passes through the processing stations of the wire enameling machine by rotating around these roller blocks a number of times, and it finally led away from the roller block structure, said wire intake device comprising:

a transfer bar, having two ends, which is rotatable around the roller blocks parallel to their axes;
a slide block which is displaceable along the transfer bar;
said slide block has a device for fastening at least one wire end;
said slide block has a guide element which extends crosswise of said transfer bar;
and
a stationary point arrangement is positioned parallel to the transfer bar the guide element being displaceable in an axial direction by the point arrangement upon each rotation around the roller block structure, which corresponds to a desired axial displacement of two neighboring coils of the wire on the roller block structure.
