[0008] Furthermore, the clamping module includes an X-direction transmission rail, a Y-direction transmission rail, a Z-direction transmission rail and a spare tire clamping structure; the X-direction transmission rail is fixed above the storage module; the Y-direction transmission rail is slidably connected to the bottom of the X-direction transmission rail, and the Y-direction transmission rail can move along the X direction; one end of the Z-direction transmission rail is slidably connected to the bottom of the Y-direction transmission rail, and the Z-direction transmission rail can move along the Y direction; the spare tire clamping structure is slidably connected to the other end of the Z-direction transmission rail, and the spare tire clamping structure can move along the Z direction; the X direction is coplanar with the Y direction, and the X direction and the Y direction are perpendicular to each other, and the Z direction is perpendicular to the plane where the X direction and the Y direction are located.

[0009] According to the above technical means, the clamping module consists of an X-direction transmission rail, a Y-direction transmission rail, a Z-direction transmission rail and a spare tire clamping structure. The Y-direction transmission rail is slidably connected under the X-direction transmission rail so that the Y-direction transmission rail can move along the X direction; one end of the Z-direction transmission rail is slidably connected under the Y-direction transmission rail so that the Z-direction transmission rail can move along the X direction and can move along the X direction together with the Y-direction transmission rail; the spare tire clamping structure is slidably connected to the other end of the Z-direction transmission rail so that the spare tire clamping structure can move along the Z direction and can move along the Y direction together with the Z-direction transmission rail, and can also move along the X direction together with the Y-direction transmission rail; the X-direction transmission rail is fixed above the storage module so that the spare tire clamping structure can move above the storage module along the X, Y and Z directions until it reaches any spare tire to be sealed and clamps the spare tire to be sealed.

[0010] Furthermore, the transport module includes: an input unit and an output unit, and the output unit and the input unit are respectively located on both sides of the packaging module along the X direction; the end of the input unit is connected to the loading port of the packaging module, and is used to transport the spare tires to be packaged into the packaging module; the starting end of the output unit is connected to the unloading port of the packaging module, and is used to transport the sealed spare tires in the packaging module out.

[0011] According to the above technical means, the output unit is set to make the sealed equipment tire leave the packaging module to avoid affecting the next equipment tire to be sealed entering the packaging module for packaging, thereby realizing continuous automatic packaging of multiple equipment tires to be sealed and further improving the packaging efficiency.

[0012] Furthermore, the input unit includes a first conveying channel and a first flipping mechanism: the first conveying channel includes a first bracket and a first conveying device; the first bracket is arranged between the storage module and the packaging module; the first conveying device is arranged on the first bracket and moves along the Y direction relative to the first bracket, and the equipment tire to be sealed is placed on the first conveying device; the first flipping mechanism is located between the first conveying channel and the loading port, and one end of the first flipping mechanism is rotatably connected to the end of the first conveying channel, so that the first flipping mechanism flips with one end of the first flipping mechanism as a fixed point, and flips the other end of the first flipping mechanism from the first conveying channel to the packaging module; the other end of the first flipping mechanism is provided with a loading clamping structure for clamping the equipment tire to be sealed located at the end of the first conveying channel.

[0013] According to the above technical means, a first flipping mechanism is set between the first conveying channel and the loading port of the packaging module to clamp the equipment tire to be sealed at the end of the first conveying channel and flip the equipment tire to be sealed onto the packaging module. Since the first flipping mechanism flips with one end of the first flipping mechanism as a fixed point, the position of the equipment tire to be sealed clamped by the first flipping mechanism on the packaging module is also fixed. By designing the connecting piece between the first conveying channel and the packaging module as the first flipping mechanism, the position of the equipment tire to be sealed remains unchanged during the transfer and transportation process, thereby ensuring the stability of the packaging quality, avoiding repeated packaging due to unqualified packaging quality, and improving the efficiency of continuous packaging.

[0014] Furthermore, the output unit includes a second conveying channel and a second flipping mechanism: the second conveying channel includes a second bracket and a second conveying device; the second bracket is arranged on the side of the packaging module away from the first bracket; the second conveying device is arranged on the second bracket and moves along the Y direction relative to the second bracket, and the sealed equipment tire is placed on the second conveying device; the second flipping mechanism is located between the second conveying channel and the discharge port, and one end of the second flipping mechanism is rotatably connected to the starting end of the second conveying channel, so that the second flipping mechanism is flipped with one end of the second flipping mechanism as a fixed point, and the other end of the second flipping mechanism is flipped from the packaging module to the second conveying channel; the other end of the second flipping mechanism is provided with a blanking clamping structure for clamping the sealed equipment tire located in the packaging module.

[0015] According to the above technical means, a second flipping mechanism is set between the second conveying channel and the unloading port of the packaging module to clamp the sealed equipment tire on the packaging module and flip the sealed equipment tire onto the second conveying channel. Since the second flipping mechanism flips with one end of the second flipping mechanism as a fixed point, when the sealed equipment tire is clamped by the second flipping mechanism, the position where the unloading clamping structure falls on the packaging module is also fixed, which ensures the accuracy of clamping, avoids repeated clamping, and further improves the efficiency of continuous packaging.

[0017] According to the above technical means, the tool layer is connected to the top of the packaging layer by sliding in the Y direction, so that the multiple tool systems hoisted on the tool layer can slide in the Y direction until one of the tool systems slides to the top of the operating table on the packaging layer. The corresponding tool system can be selected for the spare tires to be packaged of different models; the length of the tool layer in the Y direction is smaller than the packaging layer so that all tool systems can slide to the top of the operating table to avoid the tool system being idle; during the packaging process, the tool set on the lifting structure is lowered to a height where thermal cutting can be completed. After the thermal cutting is completed, the tool is reset through the lifting structure in anticipation of the next packaging.

[0020] According to the above technical means, the clamping part in the upper film clamping structure moves with the telescopic part to the position of the upper film discharging structure, and clamps the upper film out of the upper film discharging structure, and moves with the telescopic part to reset it after the clamping part clamps the upper film; since the upper film discharging structure and the upper film clamping structure are respectively arranged on both sides of the operating table along the Y direction, when the clamping part clamps the upper film from the upper film discharging structure to the upper film clamping structure, the upper film can be completely covered on the equipment tire to be sealed, thereby ensuring the integrity of the packaging.

After the different needs are centralized, one-belt multi-control is performed, which simplifies the user's operating steps and further improves the packaging efficiency.

[0055] The following will describe the embodiments of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art can easily understand the other advantages and effects of the present application from the contents disclosed in this specification. The present application can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed in various ways based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present application. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments are only for the purpose of illustrating the present application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application.

[0056] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic illustrations of the basic concept of the present application. Therefore, the illustrations only show components related to the present application and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the type, quantity and proportion of each component can be changed at will, and the component layout type may also be more complicated.

[0057] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment proposes a fully automatic spare tire packaging system, including: a storage module 1, a gripping module 2, a transport module 3, a packaging module 4 and a control module (not shown in the figure), wherein the control module includes a control center 5 and a driving mechanism (not shown in the figure), as shown in FIG. Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the driving mechanism includes: a clamping module driving mechanism 51 , a transport module driving mechanism 52 , and a packaging module driving mechanism 53 .

[0058] like Figure 2 As shown, the storage module 1 includes a plurality of trays 11, each tray 11 is arranged in a straight line, and one tray 11 is used to store a type of tire 6 to be sealed. Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, multiple trays 11 are placed in columns along the X direction and rows along the Y direction, wherein the X direction is as shown in FIG. Figure 3 The X direction of the transmission track 21 is shown, and the Y direction is as shown Figure 3 The Y direction of the transmission track 22 is shown. Figure 2 As shown, a placement frame 12 with an open end that is the same length as the column is provided at the bottom of each column of placement trays 11. The placement width of the placement frame 12 allows each column of placement trays 11 to be placed exactly within the placement frame 12. Each placement tray 11 is placed in a fixed position to prevent the placement tray 11 from being displaced. One placement tray 11 corresponds to placing a tire 6 to be sealed of one vehicle type. According to the position of each placement tray 11, the control center 5 generates the queue information of the vehicle type. The queue information is used to determine the position of the clamping module 2 to clamp the tire 6 to be sealed, thereby determining the vehicle type of the tire 6 to be sealed by the clamping module 2.

[0059] For example, when a technician needs to package a spare tire for Model A, the control center 5 selects the queue information for Model A. The control center 5 then activates the gripping module drive mechanism 51, which drives the gripping module 2 to the tray 11 where the spare tire for Model A is placed, and grabs the spare tire. The control center 5 is a control panel capable of human-machine interaction, and the gripping module drive mechanism 51 can be a drive motor.

[0060] It can be seen from this that technicians can select different models of spare tires 6 to be packaged according to needs, thereby realizing the packaging of spare tires of multiple models.

[0061] like Figure 3 As shown, the gripping module 2 is hoisted above the storage module 1. The control center 5 controls the gripping module driving mechanism 51 to drive the gripping module 2 according to the queue information of the vehicle model, and transfers the tire 6 to be sealed from the storage module 1 to the transport module 3. Figure 3 As shown, the gripping module 2 includes an X-direction transmission track 21, a Y-direction transmission track 22, and a Z-direction transmission track 23. The X direction and the Y direction are coplanar and perpendicular to each other, and the Z direction is perpendicular to the plane where the X and Y directions are located. The X-direction transmission track 21 is fixed above the storage module 1. For example, Figure 3 As shown, a fixed frame is provided on the ceiling, and the X-direction transmission rail 21 is fixed on the fixed frame 25; the Y-direction transmission rail 22 is slidably connected to the bottom of the X-direction transmission rail 21, so that the Y-direction transmission rail 22 can move along the X-direction; one end of the Z-direction transmission rail 23 is slidably connected to the bottom of the Y-direction transmission rail 22, so that the Z-direction transmission rail 23 can move along the X-direction and can move along the X-direction together with the Y-direction transmission rail 22; the spare tire clamping structure 24 is slidably connected to the other end of the Z-direction transmission rail 23, so that the spare tire clamping structure 24 can move along the Z-direction and can move along the Y-direction together with the Z-direction transmission rail 23, and can also move along the X-direction together with the Y-direction transmission rail 22; the X-direction transmission rail 21 is fixed above the storage module 1, so that the spare tire clamping structure 24 can move above the storage module 1 along the X-direction, Y-direction and Z-direction until it reaches any spare tire 6 to be sealed and clamps the spare tire 6 to be sealed.

[0062] like Figure 1 As shown, the transport module 3 is arranged on one side of the storage module 1, and the control center 5 controls the Figure 4 The transport module driving mechanism 52 shown drives the transport module 3 to transfer the spare tire 6 to be packaged from the transport module 3 to the packaging module 4. The transport module driving mechanism 52 may be a driving motor.

[0063] Specifically, if Figure 4 As shown, the transport module 3 includes: an input unit 31 and an output unit 32, the output unit 32 and the input unit 31 are respectively located on both sides of the packaging module 4 along the X direction; the end of the input unit 31 is connected to the Figure 8 The loading port 4211 of the packaging module 4 is used to transport the tire 6 to be packaged into the packaging module 4; the starting end of the output unit 32 is connected to the Figure 8The discharge port 4212 of the packaging module 4 is shown to be used to transport the sealed spare tire 7 out of the packaging module 4. The output unit 32 is provided in the transport module 3 to enable the sealed spare tire 7 to leave the packaging module 4 to avoid affecting the next spare tire 6 to be sealed from entering the packaging module 4 for packaging. This enables continuous automatic packaging of multiple spare tires 6 to be sealed, further improving packaging efficiency.

[0064] Based on this, Figure 4 As shown, the input unit 31 includes a first conveying channel 311 and a first turning mechanism 312:

[0065] like Figure 4 As shown, the first conveying channel 311 includes a first bracket 3111 and a first conveying device 3112; the first bracket 3111 is arranged between the storage module 1 and the packaging module 4; the first conveying device 3112 is arranged on the first bracket 3111 and moves relative to the first bracket 3111 along the Y direction, and the spare tire 6 to be packaged is placed on the first conveying device 3112. For example, Figure 4 As shown, the first conveying channel 311 is a roller conveying channel, the first bracket 3111 is a roller bracket, and the first conveying device 3112 is a roller roller. The roller roller rolls along the Y direction between the roller brackets, and the tire 6 to be sealed moves in the Y direction on the roller roller.

[0066] like Figure 4 As shown, the first flip mechanism 312 is located between the first conveying channel 311 and the first conveying channel 312. Figure 8 Between the loading port 4211 shown, one end of the first flipping mechanism 312 is rotatably connected to the end of the first conveying channel 311, and the control center 5 controls the transport module driving mechanism 52. The transport module driving mechanism 52 drives the first flipping mechanism 312 to flip with one end of the first flipping mechanism 312 as a fixed point, and flips the other end of the first flipping mechanism 312 from the first conveying channel 311 to the packaging module 4; the other end of the first flipping mechanism 312 is provided with a loading clamping structure 3121, which is used to clamp the equipment tire 6 to be packaged at the end of the first conveying channel 311.

[0067] Since the first flipping mechanism 312 flips with one end of the first flipping mechanism 312 as a fixed point, the position of the unsealed tire 6 clamped by the first flipping mechanism 312 on the packaging module 4 is also fixed. By designing the connecting member between the first conveying channel 311 and the packaging module 4 as the first flipping mechanism 312, the unsealed tire 6 remains in a fixed position during the transfer and transportation process, thereby ensuring the stability of the packaging quality, avoiding repeated packaging due to unqualified packaging quality, and improving the efficiency of continuous packaging. Specifically, the first flipping mechanism 312 includes a working state and a standby state. The working state of the first flipping mechanism 312 is located in a working position (not shown in the figure), which can be on the side of the input unit 31 or on the side of the packaging module 4. The standby state of the first flipping mechanism 312 is located in a standby position (not shown in the figure). The standby position can be vertically arranged between the input unit 31 and the packaging module 4 along the Z direction, ensuring that the first flipping mechanism 312 can be flexibly flipped to any working position in the shortest time according to the situation.

[0068] The inner side of the feeding clamping structure 3121 is a circular arc concave surface, which can be completely fitted on the surface of the tire 6 to be sealed. Figure 5 As shown, the loading clamping structure 3121 is the same as the unloading clamping structure 3221, and there is an elastic device 3121a, such as a compression spring, for clamping the equipment tire 6 to be sealed. When the loading clamping structure 3121 is clamped on the equipment tire 6 to be sealed, the stretched compression spring provides a tensile force converted into a clamping force, so that the equipment tire 6 to be sealed will not fall off during the process of being transferred from the first conveying channel to the packaging module 4.

[0069] like Figure 4 As shown, the output unit 32 includes a second conveying channel 321 and a second turning mechanism 322: the second conveying channel 321 includes a second bracket 3211 and a second conveying device 3212; the second bracket 3211 is set on the side of the packaging module away from the first bracket 3111; the second conveying device is set on the second bracket 3211 and moves relative to the second bracket 3211 along the Y direction, and the packaged spare tire 7 is placed on the second conveying device. For example, Figure 4 As shown, the second conveying channel 321 is a roller conveying channel, the second bracket 3211 is a roller bracket, and the second conveying device 3212 is a roller roller. The roller roller rolls along the Y direction between the roller brackets, and the sealed spare tire 7 moves in the Y direction on the roller roller.

[0070] like Figure 4 As shown, the second flip mechanism 322 is located between the second conveying channel 321 and the second conveying channel 322. Figure 8Between the unloading port 4212 shown, one end of the second flipping mechanism 322 is rotatably connected to the starting end of the second conveying channel 321, and the control center 5 controls the transport module driving mechanism 52. The transport module driving mechanism 52 drives the second flipping mechanism 322 to flip with one end of the second flipping mechanism 322 as a fixed point, and flips the other end of the second flipping mechanism 322 from the packaging module 4 to the second conveying channel 321; the other end of the second flipping mechanism 322 is provided with a unloading clamping structure 3221, which is used to clamp the sealed spare tire 7 located in the packaging module 4.

[0071] Since the second flipping mechanism 322 flips with one end of the second flipping mechanism 322 as a fixed point, when the second flipping mechanism 322 clamps the sealed spare tire 7, the position where the blanking clamping structure 3221 falls on the packaging module 4 is also fixed, ensuring the accuracy of clamping, avoiding repeated clamping, and further improving the efficiency of continuous packaging. Specifically, the second flipping mechanism 322 includes a working state and a standby state. The second flipping mechanism 322 in the working state is located at the working position, which can be the side of the output unit 32 or the side of the packaging module 4. The second flipping mechanism 322 in the standby state is located at the standby position, which can be vertically arranged along the Z direction between the output unit 32 and the packaging module 4, ensuring that the second flipping mechanism 322 can be flexibly flipped to any working position in the shortest time according to the situation.

[0072] like Figure 5 As shown, the inner side of the blanking clamping structure 3221 is a circular arc concave surface, which can be completely fitted on the surface of the sealed equipment tire 7, and there is an elastic device 3121a between the blanking clamping structure 3221 for clamping the sealed equipment tire 7, such as a compression spring. When the blanking clamping structure 3221 clamps on the sealed equipment tire 7, the stretched compression spring provides a tensile force that is converted into a clamping force, so that the sealed equipment tire 7 will not fall off during the process of transferring from the packaging module 4 to the second conveyor.

[0073] like Figure 1 As shown, the packaging module 4 is arranged on a side of the transport module 3 away from the storage module 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the packaging module 4 includes a plurality of tool systems 411 , each tool system 411 being divided along the Y direction and used for plastic-sealing the spare tires 6 of different models by thermal cutting.

[0074] like Figure 6As shown, the packaging module 4 includes a tool layer 41 and a packaging layer 42: the control center 5 controls the packaging module drive mechanism 53, which drives the tool layer 41 to slide along the Y direction and connect to the packaging layer 42. This allows multiple tool systems 411 suspended on the tool layer 41 to slide along the Y direction until one tool system 411 slides directly above the operating table 421 located on the packaging layer 42. The corresponding tool system 411 can be selected for different models of spare tires 6 to be packaged. The tool layer 41 is shorter in the Y direction than the packaging layer 42 to ensure that all tool systems 411 can slide directly above the operating table 421, avoiding idle tool systems 411. The packaging module drive mechanism 53 can be a drive motor.

[0075] Specifically, if Figure 6 As shown, the tool system 411 includes a lifting structure 4111 and a tool (not shown in the figure). The lifting structure 4111 is fixed on the tool layer 41 and is located above the packaging layer 42. The tool is fixed to the end of the lifting structure 4111 to achieve the lifting and lowering of the tool. During the packaging process, the control center 5 controls the packaging module drive mechanism 53, which drives the tool set on the lifting structure 4111 to a height where thermal cutting can be completed. After the thermal cutting is completed, the tool is reset through the lifting structure 4111 in anticipation of the next packaging. The cross-section of the spare tire after packaging is completed is as follows Figure 14 shown.

[0076] Specifically, if Figure 7 As shown, the encapsulation layer 42 includes an operating platform 421, an upper membrane assembly 422 and a lower membrane assembly 423; Figure 8 As shown, the operating table 421 is set between the input unit 31 and the output unit 32, and the loading port 4211 and the unloading port 4212 are respectively set on both sides of the operating table 421 along the X direction; the upper film assembly 422 is set above the operating table 421, and is used to cover the upper film 4221 on the tire 6 to be sealed; the lower film assembly 423 is set below the operating table 421, and is used to lay the lower film 4231 on the operating table 421. Figure 14 As shown, an upper film assembly 422 and a lower film assembly 423 are respectively arranged above and below the operating table 421, so that the tire 6 to be packaged is completely wrapped by the upper film 4221 and the lower film 4231 to achieve the integrity of the package.

[0077] Specifically, if Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the upper film assembly 422 includes an upper film discharge structure 4222 and an upper film clamping structure 4223; the upper film discharge structure 4222 and the upper film clamping structure 4223 are respectively arranged on both sides of the operating table 421 along the Y direction; Figure 9As shown, the upper film clamping structure 4223 includes a telescopic portion 4223a and a clamping portion 4223b. Figure 10 As shown, the clamping portion 4223b is used to clamp the upper film 4221, and the clamping portion 4223b is fixed on the telescopic portion 4223a. The control center 5 controls the packaging module driving mechanism 53, and the packaging module driving mechanism 53 drives the clamping portion 4223b to move with the telescopic portion 4223a to the position of the upper film discharge structure 4222, and clamps the upper film 4221 from the upper film discharge structure 4222, pulls the upper film 4221 out along the Y direction, and moves and resets it along with the telescopic portion 4223a until the upper film 4221 completely covers the equipment tire 6 to be sealed on the operating table 421, thereby ensuring the integrity of the packaging.

[0078] Specifically, if Figure 7 and Figure 11 As shown, the lower film assembly 423 includes a lower film discharge structure 4232 and a waste recovery structure 4233; the lower film discharge structure 4232 and the waste recovery structure 4233 are respectively arranged on both sides of the operating table 421 along the Y direction, and the lower film discharge structure 4232 and the waste recovery structure 4233 are both roll structures, so that the lower film 4231 is transmission-connected between the lower film discharge structure 4232 and the waste recovery structure 4233; the control center 5 controls the packaging module driving mechanism 53, and the packaging module driving mechanism 53 drives the lower film 4231 between the lower film discharge structure 4232 and the waste recovery structure 4233 to move along the Y direction until the moving distance is sufficient to completely cover the equipment tire 6 to be sealed, and the width of the lower film 4231 is much larger than the diameter of the equipment tire 6 to be sealed. After completing one packaging, the lower film 4231 will not break directly, and is still transmission-connected between the lower film discharge structure 4232 and the waste recovery structure 4233.

[0079] Based on this, Figure 7 and Figure 11 As shown, the control center 5 controls the packaging module driving mechanism 53, and the packaging module driving mechanism 53 drives the lower film 4231 waste after packaging to move along the Y direction until the waste is completely rolled on the waste recycling structure 4233, thereby playing the role of waste recycling.

[0091] S105 includes: step 8, the upper film clamping structure grabs the upper film; step 9, pulls the upper film until the upper film completely covers the equipment tire to be sealed; step 10, places the upper film on the tire to be packaged; step 11, the tool system is aligned with the operating table and lowered to complete the hot-cut packaging; step 12, the waste recycling structure rolls to recycle the lower film waste until the new lower film is completely laid on the operating table; step 13, resets the tool system; step 14, resets the upper film assembly and the lower film assembly.

[0092] S106 includes: step 15, the second flipping mechanism flips to the side of the packaging module and enters the working position; step 16, the blanking clamping structure clamps the sealed equipment tire; step 17, the second flipping mechanism flips to the side of the output unit; step 18, the blanking clamping structure releases the sealed equipment tire; step 19, the second flipping mechanism enters the standby position.

[0093] The next workpiece enters the above-mentioned fully automatic spare tire packaging system and repeats steps 1-19.

Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art based on the present application are within the protection scope of the present application.
