Abstract
Description
The invention relates to a method and a plant for constructing newatics for vehicle wheels. A tire for road vehicle wheels comprises a casing structure, shaped according to a substantially twisted configuration, comprising at least one casing layer having axially positioned ends. These ends are coupled with respective annular anchoring structures, each of which is normally formed by at least one annular insert, or "bead core," onto which at least one filler insert is generally applied, tapering radially away from the axis of rotation. The annular anchoring structures are located in areas commonly identified as "beads." The beads have an inner diameter that substantially corresponds to the so-called "fitting diameter" of the tire on a respective mounting rim. The tire also comprises a crown structure comprising at least one belt strip, positioned radially outside the casing ply, and a tread radially outside the belt strip. Two longitudinal and transverse grooves are typically molded into the tread, these grooves being arranged to define a desired tread pattern. Between the tread and the belt strip(s), it is possible to interpose a so-called underlayer made of elastomeric material that has suitable properties to obtain a stable connection of the belt strip(s) with the tread itself. The tire also comprises a pair of so-called sidewalls made of elastomeric material, which represent the outer axial surfaces of the tire with respect to a median plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the tire. For example, the sidewalls represent the outer axial surfaces with respect to the annular anchoring structures, the casing ply(s), the belt ply(s), and optionally at least part of the tread. In tubeless tires, there is, in a radially internal position with respect to the casing fabric, at least one layer of elastomeric material, which is generally called the 'liner', which has certain characteristics of airtightness and: It generally extends from one heel to the other. -3The production cycles of a tire foresee that, after a manufacturing process in which the various components of the tire itself are manufactured and / or assembled, the constructed green tires are transferred to a molding and vulcanization line where a molding and vulcanization process is carried out. This process is adapted to define the tire structure according to a desired geometry and tread pattern. The term “elastomeric material” is intended to indicate a composition comprising at least one elastomeric polymer and at least one twist filler. This composition may also include additives such as, for example, a crosslinking agent and / or a thickener. Thanks to the presence of the crosslinking agent, this material can be crosslinked by heating to form the final manufactured product. The term ''veMe tire'' is intended to indicate a pneumatic tire obtained from the manufacturing process and not yet molded and vulcanized. The term ''finished tire'' refers to a tire manufactured by the manufacturing process and subsequently molded and vulcanized. The term tire is intended to indicate a finished tire or a green tire. The terms axial, axially, radially, circumferential, and circumferentially are used with reference to the tire or drum used in the process of. tire production. In particular, the terms axially and axially are intended to indicate references arranged or extending in a direction substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the tire or drum. The terms radial and radiimente are intended to indicate references / magnitudes arranged / measured or that: extend in a direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the tire or drum and that lie in a plane comprising said axis of rotation. The terms circumferentially and circumferentially are intended to indicate references / magnitudes arranged / measured or extending along a circumference that extends around the axis of rotation of the tire c of the drum. -5* The term component or 'structural component' of a tire is intended to indicate any part of it capable of performing its own function or a part thereof.* Examples of structural components of the tire are: liner, underliner, anti-abrasion inserts, bead core, bead fillers, casing ply, belt ply(s), underbelt ply, undertread ply, sidewalls, sidewall inserts, tread, textile or metal reinforcements, reinforcing elements made of elastomeric material, etc., or a part thereof.* The term casing structure is intended to indicate a substantially cylindrical sleeve comprising at least one casing layer. Generally, the sleeve has axially opposite ends coupled with respective annular anchoring structures adapted to form the tire beads. Preferably, each annular anchoring structure comprises a substantially circumferential annular insert called the bead core onto which is applied, preferably at least one filler insert. Preferably, the casing structure also comprises at least one of the following: anti-abrasive inserts, a bead liner, a bottom liner, a complex, sidewall inserts, reinforcements, and a bottom raceway insert. -6 The term "cereta structure" is intended to indicate the assembly consisting at least of the belt structure (comprising at least one belt strip) and the spray band. The term tire in process refers to a tire at any stage of the relative manufacturing process, from the manufacture of at least a first component that constitutes the structure of the casing and / or the structure of the crown to obtaining the finished tire. The term "shell structure in process" or "crown structure in process" means a shell structure or a crown structure at any step of the relative manufacturing process, ranging from the manufacture of at least a first component constituting the shell structure or crown structure to the complete obtaining of the shell structure or crown structure, respectively. The term "manipulator" is intended to denote a non-anthropomorphic Cartesian robot adapted to support a forging drum (e.g., a first-stage drum or a second-stage drum) and move it independently along three Cartesian axes X, I, Z. Preferably, the manipulator has the ability to rotate the forging drum about at least one axis, more preferably about at least two axes of said Cartesian axes X, O, 2. The term funelonamiorto in a .perwnenté state comes from Indicate the normal operating conditions of a tire manufacturing plant, thus excluding possible transitional periods of start-up or stop-up of the plant itself, for example, linked to a change of production batch. The term semi-finished product refers to a prefabricated product (in other words, manufactured before tire production and, generally, outside the tire manufacturing plant) to form a structural component of a tire. The manufactured product is prefabricated along its entire width. In other words, the semi-finished products have their own width dimensioned to be equal to the width (measured in an axial direction of the tire) of the structural component of the tire to which the semi-finished product is adapted. The manufactured product can also be prefabricated along its entire length. In other words, the semi-finished products can have their own length dimensioned to be equal to the length (measured in the axial direction) of the structural component of the tire to which the semi-finished product is adapted. The structural component of the tire is formed by the -8 circumferential roll of the semi-finished product on a cylindrical or torpid deposition surface, the cross-section tailored to the semi-finished product and the butt joint of the ends of the cut semi-finished product. Alternatively, in the case of a semi-finished product prefabricated along its entire length, the cutting pass is omitted. The prefabricated semi-finished product is suitable for storage (for example, in suitable storage reels) for later use in a tire production plant. The product may be manufactured solely from woven material or may be reinforced with at least one cord of woven, metallic, and / or hybrid textile material. Generally, the manufactured product has a flat cross-sectional profile. The term elemental semi-finished product means a continuous, elongated, tape-like element cut to size, adapted for use in the on-site fabrication (within the tire manufacturing plant) of a structural component of the tire, at the time of tire manufacturing itself. Such elemental semi-finished products have a width greater than the width (measured in the axial direction of the tire) of the structural component of the tire to be constructed. These elemental semi-finished products are suitable for use in appropriate quantities. -9for on-site manufacturing, during the manufacture of the tire itself, one or more of the structural components of the tire described above, without requiring the manufacture and subsequent storage of semi-finished products. To build a structural component of a tire, the elementary semi-finished products are generally deposited on a deposition surface side by side (i.e., side by side and / or at least partially juxtaposed radially). It is therefore clear that, although it is possible to build a structural component of a tire simply by deposition and, optionally, by cutting to size of a suitable semi-finished product, this is not possible with an elementary semi-finished product which, to make a structural component of a tire, must be deposited side by side and / or juxtaposed on other elementary semi-finished products. The expression elongated element: continuous” is intended to indicate an elementary semi-finished product, which has the form of an elongated manufactured product made solely of elastomeric material, comprising at least one card (of textile and / or metallic material) that extends parallel to the longitudinal extension of the continuous elongated element itself and is incorporated or at least partially covered by at least one layer of elastomeric material. The term 'strip-shaped element' refers to a semi-finished product that has the characteristics of a manufactured product—in the form of a strip cut to have a length greater than its width, having a flat profile in cross-section, and comprising one or more threads, generally of textile and / or metallic and / or hybrid scrub, extending parallel to the length and longitudinal extent of the element itself; the strip-shaped element being incorporated or at least partially coated by at least one layer of elastic material. The term flexiblH .única intends to indicate the possibility of using each tire, elementary semi-finished products that are measured by the type of elastomeric material or by the type of textile, metallic or hybrid reinforcement cord. The term fabrication cycle time is intended to indicate the time of a pneumatic tire being processed in a plant and the output of the next tire, under stable operating conditions.

Therefore, it operates on casing structures and crown structures detached from the respective drums of the first stage 110 and the drums of the second stage 210. The M second-stage forming drums 110 move independently and simultaneously on the manufacturing line of a crown structure 200 with respect to the Ies & first-stage forging drums 110 on the manufacturing line of the shell structure 100, and then transport them to the forging and assembly station 301.

This, advantageously, allows the rotation of the second-stage drums 110 about their axis of rotation (where the X-axis coincides with the R-axis) and the passage of the drums from a position where their axis of rotation is oriented vertically (parallel to the X-axis) to a position where their axis of rotation is oriented horizontally (e.g., parallel to the X-axis). The second manipulator 400 is preferably a non-anthropomorphic Cartesian robot with at least five degrees of freedom to allow the movement of said drums. -58 first stage forging drums 110 along three Cartesian axes / X, X, 2 and a rotation around two of said Cartesian axes, X and 1.

The X, Y, and X axes and the rotations about the X and Y axes mentioned are illustrated schematically in Figure <. Compared to an anthropomorphic robot (which generally has a substantially spherical workspace), a Cartesian robot (which generally has a substantially parallelepiped workspace) advantageously allows operation in the X-plane and in large work areas with a more limited volume. This is advantageous in terms of reducing the space occupied and 2Q also in terms of precision and safety (considering that to obtain the same work area an anthropomorphic robot must be equipped with a very long wand). The first manipulator 500 is capable of operating on the drums of the second stage 210 in a work area (not illustrated) within which are located the first loading / unloading device 310 and the second initial location B2, the second final location P22, the first intermediate location 311 and the second intermediate location M2 of the second traverse 230 5 of the corotá structure manufacturing line 200.

Horizontal orientation is required here because the forming drum 330 The -61 used by the forming and assembly machine 300 operates with the rotation axis oriented horizontally. It should be noted that, with respect to an anthropomorphic robot, a Cartesian robot, such as the first manipulator 500, is capable of performing this delivery operation, in which the taking drums of the second stage 110 are supported with a rotation axis oriented horizontally, with greater reliability since in a Cartesian robot, the possible correction on the positioning of an axis occurs by acting on the only axis to be corrected.
