Take-up device for long-member and production device for long-member

Abstract

Automatic taking-up of a long member is enabled to reduce man-hour etc., needed for take-up operation to improve the productivity in the production of the long member. A take-up device ( 1 ) for a long member ( 50 ) includes a take-up reel ( 10 ), rotation driving means that rotates the take-up reel ( 10 ), guide means ( 20 ) that guides the long member ( 50 ), and a control unit ( 30 ) that performs control of the entire device. An insertion portion ( 13 ) into which the end portion of the long member ( 50 ) can be inserted is formed in the core member ( 11 ) of the take-up reel ( 10 ). Rotation of the take-up reel ( 10 ) is controlled by the control unit ( 30 ) to set the opening of the insertion portion ( 13 ) at a predetermined position. The end portion of the long member ( 50 ) is guided toward that position by the guide means ( 20 ), and the end portion is inserted through the insertion portion ( 13 ). Then, the take-up reel ( 10 ) is rotated to take up the long member ( 50 ) on the core member ( 11 ).

1 . A long-member take-up device that takes up a long member around a core member of a take-up reel from an end portion, the core member of the take-up reel having an insertion portion into which the end portion of the long member can be inserted, the long-member take-up device comprising:
 rotation driving means that rotates the take-up reel;   guide means that guides the end portion of the long member toward the core member of the take-up reel; and   a rotation control unit that controls the rotation of the take-up reel by the rotation driving means and aligns the insertion portion of the take-up reel with a guide position where the guide means guides the end portion of the long member,   wherein, in a state in which the end portion of the long member is guided and inserted into the insertion portion of the take-up reel aligned therewith, the take-up reel is rotated to take up the long member on the core member.   
     
     
         2 . The long-member take-up device according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the insertion portion is formed so as to penetrate through the core member, and   wherein the long member is taken up with the end portion thereof being inserted through the insertion portion.   
     
     
         3 . The long-member take-up device according to  claim 1 , further comprising measuring means that measures the length of the end portion of the long member inserted into the insertion portion or detection means that detects the end position of the long member. 
     
     
         4 . The long-member take-up device according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the take-up reel includes the core member having a columnar shape and a pair of side plates disposed at both ends of the core member in an axial direction, and   wherein the insertion portion is a through-hole that opens at both ends in an outer surface of the core member on both sides across the axis and penetrates through the core member.   
     
     
         5 . The long-member take-up device according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the long member is a rubber member.   
     
     
         6 . A long-member production device comprising:
 a molding apparatus for molding a long member; and   the long-member take-up device for taking up the long member molded by the molding apparatus, according to  claim 1 .
