[0002] With the rise of the automobile industry and the increasing demand for tires, self-sealing tires with good self-sealing properties have received widespread attention. However, they have not been promoted and applied due to their complex processes and difficulties in manufacturing.
[0003] At present, the common rubber extrusion equipment on the market is relatively simple and cannot meet the special needs of self-sealing rubber tires. Therefore, the new process and equipment developed based on self-sealing rubber materials are in line with the development of the tire industry and fill the domestic gap, which is of great significance. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide an extrusion cross-linking device for self-sealing rubber which is easy to install and operate and has a compact structure.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to achieve the above-mentioned purpose is:
[0006] An extrusion cross-linking device for self-sealing rubber includes an extrusion system 1, a screw sealing device 2, a transition body connecting seat 3, a transmission device 4, a barrel support 5, a base 6, a heating and heat preservation device 7, a screw temperature control pipeline 8, a damper 9 and a discharge template 10.

The extrusion system 1 is also mounted on the base 6 via a barrel support 5. The discharge die plate 10 is connected to the extrusion system 1 via a damper 9. The screw sealing device 2, the heating and heat preservation device 7, and the screw temperature control pipeline 8 are all connected inside the extrusion system 1.
[0008] Preferably, the extrusion system 1 includes a screw 14, a feeding barrel 11, a barrel A12, a barrel B13, a barrel connecting device 15 and a heater 16 to realize the feeding, melting, shearing, mixing and discharging of rubber. Among them, barrel A12 and barrel B13 are both installed on the outside of the screw 14 and are connected together by the barrel connecting device 15. The feeding barrel 11 is connected to the head end of the barrel A12 and is connected to the transmission device 4 through the transition body connecting seat 3. The heater 16 is connected to the tail end of the barrel B13 to ensure the melting temperature requirement of the material discharged from the tail end of the screw. The screw 14 can sequentially complete the four-stage extrusion process of feeding, compression, melting and homogenization. The feeding section uses a deeper screw groove depth to balance the feed amount and the strength requirements of the screw root. The compression section uses a gradually changing screw groove depth to meet the compression requirements. The melting section and the homogenization section use a shallower screw groove depth coupled with a pin structure to complete the efficient shearing and plasticizing process of the material. The hollow structure inside the screw 14 is connected to the screw temperature control pipeline 8. By heating the core of the screw 14 to a high temperature, the temperature requirement of the material contact surface of the screw 14 is guaranteed, thereby accelerating the conversion process of the rubber melt state.
[0009] Preferably, the transmission device 4 is composed of a coupling, a variable frequency motor and a reducer, providing sufficient and adjustable power for the extrusion system 1.
[0010] Preferably, the base 6 is composed of a base frame 17, a guide rail 18, a guide wheel 19, a driven wheel 20, a drive device 21, a bumper 22, and a sensor shield 23.

[0011] Preferably, the heating and heat-insulating device 7 primarily comprises multiple heating and heat-insulating covers, heaters, and fans. The heaters and fans are connected to barrels A12 and B13 to provide heat for melting the materials within the barrels.

The fixed support plate 31 is mounted outside the unloading door support plate 35 and guide rod 34. Its bottom is fixed to the limit block 37 via screws. A plurality of adjustment screws 36 are provided on the fixed support plate 31, which are used to adjust and fix the position of the unloading door support plate 35. The thrust plate 27 and the pressure cover 30 are connected to the composite bearing 28 to form the power transmission. The pointer device 33 is connected to the guide rod 34. The handwheel input torque drives the screw 29 to rotate through the reducer 26 and the composite bearing 28.

The slide 41 is a fan-shaped structure, which is mounted on the outer periphery of the distance sleeve 42 near the center, and one side of the slide is provided with a through hole that is compatible with the outlet of the manifold 40. The handle 47 is connected to the slide 41, and by turning the handle 47, the slide 41 is driven to rotate around the distance sleeve 42 to connect or disconnect the outlets on both sides of the manifold 40, thereby adjusting the flow of materials in the connecting elbows 44 on both sides. The pressure sensor 46 is inserted into the connector 38 to detect the extrusion pressure of the melt; the heater 48 is fixed at the connecting elbow 44 to provide heat for the material to be melted and discharged, thereby ensuring the ambient temperature requirement of the melt.
[0015] The heater 16, the fixed support plate 31 and the connector 38 are connected in sequence by 8 bolts. The molten material at the tail of the screw 14 is transported to the connector 38 through the upper and lower material doors of the damper 9, and then enters the diverter 40 through the connector 38 and the connecting sleeve a39. It is diverted to the connecting elbow 44 through the diverter 40 and flows out.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] 1) This invention designs a novel extrusion and cross-linking equipment for self-sealing rubber, suitable for self-sealing tires. The rubber material is drawn into the barrel by a gear pump, sheared by a screw, and conveyed to the tail of the screw. A damper and a discharge plate then discharge the material at multiple outlets at a constant pressure. Heat required for the molten material is generated by a specially designed heating and insulation device and screw temperature control piping, ultimately achieving the extrusion and cross-linking requirements of the self-sealing rubber.
[0018] 2) The screw's double-flight, pin-shaped structure enhances feeding and homogenizing shearing to complete the four extrusion stages of rubber: feeding, compression, melting, and homogenization. The heatable hollow main shaft accelerates the transition between the molten rubber and the final state. The base is driven by a drive mechanism and moves along guide rails, meeting installation, production, and process adjustment requirements. The damper adjusts the position of the upper and lower feed ports through a combination of a handwheel, lead screw, and nut, meeting the requirement for adjustable molten material extrusion pressure. The discharge template adjusts the alternating process requirements of the molten material through a combination of a handle, connector, manifold, and connecting elbow.
