Device and Method for Manufacturing Cable Sensors

摘要

A device for the production of cable sensors that each have at least one sensor and a cable trimmed to a variably pre-definable length includes at least two processing units, and at least one conveying unit. The processing units are configured to load and cut a cable blank, and are further configured to sequentially convey the cable blank along a pre-defined motion track. At least one deflection unit is positioned between adjacent processing units. Each deflection unit includes at least one deflection element that is in contact with or is configured to contact the cable blank. A displacement unit is assigned to and is configured to modify a position of the deflection element in order to influence a length of the motion track of the cable blank so as to obtain variable lengths of cable.

1. A device for manufacturing cable sensors that each includes at least one sensor and a cable trimmed to a respective variably pre-defined length, the device comprising:
at least two processing units configured to load and trim a cable blank; at least one conveying unit via which the at least two processing units are configured to sequentially convey the cable blank along a pre-defined motion track; and at least one deflection unit disposed between adjacent processing units that includes:
at least one deflection element that is either (i) in contact with or (ii) is configured to come into contact with the cable blank; anda displacement unit assigned to the at least one deflection element and configured to modify a position of the assigned deflection element in order to influence a length of the motion track.
