Functional Description
5.1
Function
The spring cable reel is designed for the automatic coiling cables for mobile consumers. The cable is wound using pretensioned
coil springs that are installed inside the body of the reel.
The reel is equipped with a fastening flange that is connected to the fixed axis by two threaded pins.
Unwinding is automatic and is implemented on site.
5.2
Construction
The reel is ball bearing mounted.
The reel body consists of a solid screwed plate structure (galvanised plate). Inside the reel body there is the spring chamber with
the spring set.
The drive springs and ball bearings are lubricated with a special grease for the temperature range from -55 °C to +100 °C.
Against the flange side is the chamber in which the slip ring body is housed. This area is covered by a two-part plastic or steel hub
(protection classes: IP54 steel, IP65 plastic).
The metric entry for the reel-capable cable (cable collar) is located in the lower part of the hub.
The slip ring of the slip ring body is screwed onto the fixed axis.
The current collector part is connected to the rotating reel body.
