Rebar tying machine wire feeding disc braking mechanism with positioning device

A rebar tying machine wire feeding disc braking mechanism with positioning device has a braking part for stopping a wire feeding disc and a cam mechanism for controlling actions of the braking part. The cam mechanism has a cam and a push shaft mounted on a fixed seat, capable of axial displacement. One end of the push shaft presses against a rim of the cam and reciprocates along with the changing outline of the rim. A middle portion of the push shaft is a diameter-varying segment and presses against one end of the braking part such that the braking part swings forwards and backwards with the translation of the push shaft, the cam mechanism realizes stopping through the positioning device. The forward rotation inertia of the cam is eliminated such that the cam is stopped.

Method and Apparatus for Diagnostic Testing of a Safe Brake Control Circuit
20230086978 · 2023-03-23 ·

A method and system for monitoring operation of a brake control circuit periodically verifies that redundant output control channels transition between ON and OFF states. A controller generates separate brake release signals for each of the redundant output control channels. The brake release signals are combined to form a brake command signal used to control operation of the brake coil. An input channel on the controller receives a signal corresponding to the current state of the brake command signal to monitor brake operation. The controller periodically modulates the brake release signals on each channel between an ON and an OFF state. The modulation is observed on the brake command signal to verify that each output channel is able to change state. The modulation occurs at a frequency greater than a response frequency of the brake coil such that the brake coil remains energized during modulation of each output channel.
