Method and device for transporting wire

摘要

The method comprises rolling up wire (2) using a wire conveyor roller (5) driven by a drive device, from a revolvably arranged wire supply roller (3), where the external circumference of the wire conveyor roller adjoins the wire in frictionally engaged manner. The wire conveyor roller is driven in phases by the drive device. The elasticity required for a frictionally engaged power transmission by the wire conveyor roller is applied by a conveyor device (8), which is arranged between the wire conveyor roller and a welding - or spraying device (4). The method comprises rolling up wire (2) using a wire conveyor roller (5) driven by a drive device, from a revolvably arranged wire supply roller (3), where the external circumference of the wire conveyor roller adjoins the wire in frictionally engaged manner. The wire conveyor roller is driven in phases by the drive device. The elasticity required for a frictionally engaged power transmission by the wire conveyor roller is applied by a conveyor device (8), which is arranged between the wire conveyor roller and a welding - or spraying device (4). The conveyor device comprises a pair of conveyor rollers, between which the wire is clamped. The wire is conveyed through the rotation of the conveyor roller. The wire adjoins on a circumference section of more than 90[deg] or 180[deg] at the external circumference of the wire conveyor roller. The wire completely entangles the wire conveyor roller. The conveyor device conveys the wire corresponding to the momentary wire requirement of the welding - or spraying device. The number of revolutions of the wire conveyor roller is 60 U/min. The ratio between the diameter of the wire conveyor roller in millimeter and the number of revolutions of the wire conveyor roller in revolutions per minute is 0.5-10. The ratio between the diameter of the wire conveyor roller in millimeter and the number of revolutions of the wire conveyor roller in revolutions per minute is 6. An independent claim is included for a conveyor device for conveying wire to a welding - or spraying device.
