Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of rubber tire manufacturing technology, and in particular to a bonding drum shrinkage and stretching mechanism and a triangular rubber bonding method. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the rubber industry, there is an increasing pursuit of low-carbon, environmentally friendly, low-energy-consumption, low-noise, zero-pollution, high-efficiency, and low-cost rubber equipment and processes for producing rubber products. This is also the current trend in the development of rubber equipment technology.

[0003] The bonding of the triangular rubber to the fabric-covered steel rim is a crucial process in tire forming. Currently, most domestic tire manufacturers still use manual bonding in the production of all-steel truck tires. This method has drawbacks such as high labor intensity, low production efficiency, and unstable product quality. Even automatic bonding drums have poor versatility and are only suitable for producing products of a single specification, thereby indirectly increasing production costs.

[0004] CN201610750058.7 discloses a bonding drum for an automatic triangular adhesive bonding machine, belonging to the technical field of triangular adhesive bonding machines. It includes a main shaft extending front and rear, a cylinder, a rear support plate, a front support plate spaced apart in front of the cylinder, an adjusting screw located in front of the main shaft, several drum flipping mechanisms arranged sequentially around the outer ring of the main shaft, a collar, and a guide key fixedly connected to the collar. Although this bonding drum can realize the function of automatically bonding triangular adhesive, the outer diameter of the bonding drum is fixed and unchanged. The same type of bonding drum is only suitable for producing tires of a single specification. It has poor versatility and cannot meet the production needs of tires of various nominal sizes, which indirectly increases the production cost.

[0005] Therefore, providing a shrinkage and stretching mechanism with an adjustable outer circumference of the bonding drum and a bonding method for the triangular rubber in the field of rubber tire manufacturing technology is an urgent technical problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a shrinkage and stretching mechanism for a bonding drum with adjustable outer diameter and taper, as well as a bonding method for triangular adhesive, to achieve high-efficiency bonding between the triangular adhesive and the steel ring, thereby solving the problems of low efficiency, low quality and poor versatility of traditional bonding drums.

The shrinking and stretching device surrounds the head of the main shaft, the finger plate flipping device surrounds the outside of the shrinking and stretching device, and the power cylinder system surrounds the middle of the main shaft and provides power to the shrinking and stretching device.

[0008] Furthermore, the contraction and extension device includes several contraction and extension components, which circumferentially surround the main shaft.

The other end of the push rod is connected to the middle of the connecting rod via a first self-lubricating bearing fitted onto pin F.

[0009] Furthermore, the power cylinder system includes a first cylinder, a second cylinder, a large sliding plate, a slider seat, a first slider connecting plate, and a second slider connecting plate. There are one pair of first cylinders and one pair of second cylinders, respectively arranged opposite each other on both sides of the main shaft. The first cylinder is connected to the cylinder sliding mechanism. A first piston rod is provided inside the first cylinder and connected to the slider seat. The slider seat is located outside the first slider connecting plate. A slider is provided inside the first slider connecting plate and slidably connected to the main shaft. The second cylinder is connected to one side of the slider seat, and the large sliding plate is located on the other side of the slider seat. A second piston rod is provided inside the second cylinder, passing through the slider seat and connecting to the large sliding plate. The large sliding plate is located outside the second slider connecting plate. A slider is provided inside the second slider connecting plate and slidably connected to the main shaft. The large sliding plate has multiple circumferentially surrounding grooves. One end of a push rod is fitted with a second self-lubricating bearing via a pin A and engages with a groove on the large sliding plate. A pressure plate is used to fix the push rod within the corresponding groove on the large sliding plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the spindle head is provided with a base, which is a ring-shaped part fitted around the spindle head. The end cap is connected to the base by screws. The base is provided with several radially open sliding grooves, and the slider A is inserted into the sliding grooves.

[0011] Furthermore, the finger plate flipping device includes several finger plate flipping assemblies. Each finger plate flipping assembly includes a tile, a supporting finger plate, and a finger plate hinge. The tile is fixed to the slider A by pins and screws. The head of the finger plate hinge is connected to the tile. The supporting finger plate is embedded in the finger plate hinge by screws. One end of the connecting rod is fitted with a slider B and slidably connected to the finger plate hinge.

[0012] Furthermore, the number of sliding grooves on the base, pressure ring, large sliding plate, and small sliding plate is consistent with the number of finger plate flipping components.

[0013] Furthermore, among the multiple finger plate flipping assemblies, one of the finger plate flipping assemblies has an adsorption tile, and the adsorption tile is provided with an adsorber mounting plate and a vacuum adsorber.

[0014] A method for bonding triangular adhesive to a drum shrinkage and expansion mechanism:

[0015] 101: According to the specifications of the tire bead to be processed, adjust the diameter and taper of the bonding drum, move the power cylinder system along the main shaft direction, and move the small slide plate along the main shaft direction to adjust the height of the slider A, so that the diameter and taper of the bonding drum are adjusted to the appropriate position.

[0016] 102: Rotate the bonding drum to rotate the finger plate flipping assembly containing the adsorption tiles to the set position, namely the vacuum adsorption tile docking position on the drum.

[0017] 103: The adhesive delivery device delivers the head of the triangular adhesive to the adsorption tile. The vacuum adsorption tile holds the head of the adhesive. The bonding drum rotates to wrap the triangular adhesive around its circumference. The adhesive delivery device then delivers the tail of the triangular adhesive to overlap with the head and place it to pre-press the joint, thereby completing the head and tail sealing and rolling action of the triangular adhesive.

[0018] 104: Move the bonding drum to the upright position so that the bonding drum is opposite to the bonding plate. The bonding drum rotates the triangular glue joint to the pressing start angle. The pressing mechanism then presses down the multi-layer sheet roller. The bonding drum rotates a certain angle to ensure that the multi-layer sheet roller presses the entire joint, thereby completing the rolling action of sealing the head and tail of the triangular glue.

[0019] 105: The bonding disc extends into position and aligns with the bonding drum. The first cylinder remains stationary. The first piston rod inside the first cylinder drives the second cylinder and the slider seat to move axially along the main shaft. When the first piston rod of the first cylinder moves to its maximum position, the second cylinder remains stationary. The second piston rod inside the second cylinder drives the large sliding disc to move towards the main shaft, causing the push rod, connecting rod, and finger plate flipping assembly to swing. This causes the finger plate flipping assembly to flip outward, flipping the triangular rubber bead onto the steel ring of the bonding disc. After bonding is complete, the second cylinder and the first cylinder are controlled to drive the finger plate flipping assembly to retract and flip inward. Attached Figure Description
