Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of waste tire bead steel fiber storage devices, and more specifically to an environmentally friendly method for storing and protecting steel fibers. Background Technology

[0002] With the gradual development of science and technology, the number of cars is increasing year by year. The wear and tear and natural depletion of vehicles have made their recycling a difficult problem. Among the recycling and processing of vehicles, the recycling and processing of vehicle tires is particularly important.

[0003] Vehicle tires are mostly made of rubber and other chemical materials. Common incineration methods are not only costly but also cause severe environmental pollution. In recent years, waste tire bead fibers, made of carbon steel, have become a research target for many scholars due to their superior mechanical properties. Recycling tire bead fibers has emerged in various fields, such as in civil engineering, where they are added to beams, slabs, and concrete to increase their strength, or used directly as prestressing tendons. These applications generally require preliminary experimental verification in laboratories; therefore, the demand for waste tire bead fibers in laboratories is increasing.

[0004] Furthermore, the steel wire fibers of the tire bead are inherently hard and flexible, making them more difficult to bend and store compared to ordinary steel wires. In addition, the fiber length is not fixed, so common fiber storage racks are not sufficient to effectively store and organize tire bead fibers, and they are also difficult to store and retrieve.

[0005] Therefore, how to provide an environmentally friendly steel fiber storage and protection method that can store waste tire bead steel fibers, prevent users from being injured by the fibers during experiments, and facilitate storage and retrieval is an urgent problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides an environmentally friendly steel fiber storage and protection method that can store waste tire bead steel wire fibers, prevent users from being punctured by the fibers during experiments, and facilitate storage and retrieval.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] An environmentally friendly method for storing and protecting steel fibers includes the following steps:

[0009] Step 1: Fabricate the steel fiber storage device:

[0010] The steel fiber storage device includes: an outer shell, on one side wall of which a steel fiber insertion window and a steel fiber removal window are provided;

[0011] A steel fiber storage roller assembly is movably disposed inside the outer shell. The outer cylinder wall of the steel fiber storage roller assembly is provided with an outer spiral storage groove for storing steel fibers. A steel fiber fixing member for constraining the head end of the steel fiber is fixed on the groove opening at the beginning of the outer spiral storage groove at the position corresponding to the steel fiber delivery window.

[0012] A drive assembly is mounted on the housing, and the drive end of the drive assembly is connected to the steel fiber storage roller assembly for driving the rotation of the steel fiber storage roller assembly and its movement along the axial direction of the housing.

[0013] Step 2: Use the steel fiber storage device from Step 1 to store the steel fibers:

[0014] The specific method is as follows: The user places the head end of the steel fiber into the outer spiral storage groove through the steel fiber delivery window and constrains the head end of the steel fiber to the steel fiber fixing member. Then, the driving component drives the steel fiber storage roller assembly to rotate forward and move forward, so that the steel fiber is wrapped around the outer spiral storage groove, thus storing the steel fiber. When it is necessary to remove the steel fiber, the user grabs the tail end of the steel fiber through the steel fiber removal window, and then drives the steel fiber storage roller assembly to rotate in the opposite direction and move backward through the driving component, so that the steel fiber can be pulled out from the outer spiral storage groove, thus removing the steel fiber.

[0015] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, the present invention discloses an environmentally friendly method for storing and protecting steel fibers. This method can store and preserve waste tire bead steel wire fibers, i.e., steel fibers, avoiding the risk of tripping or scratching people by placing steel fibers randomly on the laboratory floor, and improving the environmental environment of the laboratory.

[0016] Furthermore, in step 1, a transverse support rod is fixed to the rear cover of the outer shell, and a translational constraint sleeve is fitted onto the end of the transverse support rod away from the rear cover. A translational constraint rod is fixed to the outer wall of the translational constraint sleeve. The steel fiber storage roller assembly includes:

[0017] A front-end movable support frame is sleeved on the end of the transverse support rod away from the rear cover and located on one side of the translation constraint sleeve. The driving end of the driving assembly is connected to the front-end movable support frame and is used to drive the front-end movable support frame to rotate.

[0018] A rear movable support frame, which is sleeved on the other end of the transverse support rod;

[0019] A steel fiber storage roller, wherein the inner cylinder openings at both ends of the steel fiber storage roller are fixedly connected to the front movable support frame and the rear movable support frame, respectively; an outer spiral storage groove is provided on the outer cylinder wall of the steel fiber storage roller; an inner spiral translation constraint groove is provided on the inner cylinder wall of the steel fiber storage roller; and the rod end of the translation constraint rod away from the translation constraint sleeve is inserted into the outer spiral storage groove.

[0020] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are as follows: the front-end movable support frame and the rear-end movable support frame effectively support the steel fiber storage roller. When the drive component drives the front-end movable support frame to rotate, the front-end movable support frame drives the steel fiber storage roller to rotate. Since the translation constraint rod is limited in the inner spiral translation constraint groove and the translation constraint rod is fixed, the front-end movable support frame and the rear-end movable support frame move on the transverse support rod while the steel fiber storage roller rotates. That is, the steel fiber storage roller will move forward or backward, thereby realizing that the steel fiber can be wound in the outer spiral storage groove.

[0021] Furthermore, the driving component includes:

[0022] A drive rod is placed inside the housing. One end of the drive rod extends outward through the front cover of the housing and a handle is fixed on that end. The other end of the drive rod is rotatably connected to a connecting cylinder.

[0023] A rotating disk, wherein the disk shaft on one side of the rotating disk is rotatably connected to the first opening of the connecting cylinder, and a plurality of sliding holes are evenly distributed on the rotating disk;

[0024] A sliding support rod, wherein there are multiple sliding support rods, one end of which passes through the sliding hole and the other end of each is fixedly connected to the front movable support frame;

[0025] An intermediate transmission component is provided, through which the drive rod and the rotating disk are connected.

[0026] Furthermore, a first bearing is fixed inside the second opening of the connecting cylinder, and the other end of the drive rod is inserted into the inner ring of the first bearing.

[0027] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are as follows: By rotating the handle to drive the rotating rod, the rotating rod drives the rotating disk to rotate through the intermediate transmission component. Simultaneously, the rotating disk drives the sliding support rod on it to rotate, which in turn drives the front-end movable support frame to rotate. Furthermore, with the cooperation of the moving constraint rod and the inner spiral translation constraint groove, the steel fiber storage roller can move forward or backward. When the steel fiber storage roller moves forward or backward, the sliding support rod, fixed to the front-end movable support frame, moves within the sliding hole. Therefore, the above structure enables the self-rotation and movement of the steel fiber storage roller.

[0028] Furthermore, the front-end movable support frame includes:

[0029] A front support plate is sleeved on one end of the transverse support rod via a second bearing and located on one side of the translation constraint sleeve. One side of the front support plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the sliding support rod.

[0030] The front support rods are multiple, and one end of each rod is evenly distributed and fixed on the outer peripheral wall of the front support plate, while the other end of each rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one end of the steel fiber collecting roller.

[0031] The rear movable support frame includes:

[0032] A rear support plate, which is sleeved on the other end of the transverse support rod via a third bearing;

[0033] The rear support rods are multiple in number, with one end of each rod evenly distributed and fixed on the outer peripheral wall of the rear support plate, and the other end of each rod being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the other end of the steel fiber collecting roller.

[0034] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are: the front-end movable support frame and the rear-end movable support frame have simple structures and are easy to process.

[0035] Furthermore, the rotating disk is the fourth driven gear, and the intermediate transmission component includes:

[0036] A drive gear, which is fitted onto the drive rod and located inside the housing;

[0037] The first driven gear has an axle on one side rotatably mounted on the front cover and located inside the housing. The first driven gear is meshed with the drive gear for transmission.

[0038] The second driven gear has an axle on one side rotatably mounted on the front cover and located inside the housing. The second driven gear meshes with the first driven gear for transmission.

[0039] Driven rotating rod, one end of which is fixedly connected to the other side of the second driven gear;

[0040] The third driven gear is fixedly connected on one side to the other end of the driven rotating rod, and the third driven gear is meshed with the fourth driven gear for transmission.

[0041] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are as follows: when the drive rod rotates, the drive gear on it rotates together with the drive rod, thereby driving the first driven gear to rotate. The first driven gear drives the second driven gear to rotate, the second driven gear drives the third driven gear to rotate through the driven rod, and the third driven gear drives the fourth driven gear, i.e., the rotating disk, to rotate. Therefore, this intermediate transmission component uses gears for transmission, which results in smooth transmission, simple structure, and the ability to drive the steel fiber receiving roller to rotate with a relatively small driving force.

[0042] Furthermore, one end of the drive lever is mounted on the front cover via a fourth bearing, the axle of the first driven gear is mounted on the front cover via a fifth bearing, and the axle of the second driven gear is mounted on the front cover via a sixth bearing.

[0043] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are: improving the smoothness of rotation of the drive rod, the first driven gear, and the second driven gear.

[0044] Furthermore, the steel fiber fastener includes: a fixing block, the fixing block being fixed to the starting groove of the outer spiral receiving groove, and the fixing block having multiple fixing holes for inserting and fixing multiple steel fiber ends;

[0045] In step 2, the steel fiber end is inserted into the outer spiral receiving groove and then inserted into the fixing hole.

[0046] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are: the steel fiber end can be fixed to the fixing block by inserting the steel fiber end into the fixing hole, so that when the steel fiber collecting roller rotates, the steel fiber end is fixed at the beginning of the outer spiral collecting groove by the fixing block, which allows the steel fiber to be wound in the outer spiral collecting groove.

[0047] Furthermore, the fixing hole is a conical hole, with the larger end of the fixing hole facing the steel fiber delivery window and the smaller end of the fixing hole away from the steel fiber delivery window.

[0048] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are as follows: the fixing hole is a conical hole, which facilitates the insertion of the steel fiber tip through the larger end of the conical hole, enabling rapid insertion of the steel fiber tip. Furthermore, once inserted into the conical hole, the steel fiber is compressed within the smaller end of the conical hole, thus limiting and fixing the steel fiber to the fixing block. Therefore, the design of this conical hole ensures rapid insertion and fixation of the steel fiber, and the operation is simple.

[0049] Furthermore, the steel fiber storage device in step 1 also includes a steel fiber deflection corrector fixed to the steel fiber delivery window, which includes:

[0050] The outer frame is fixed to the steel fiber delivery window;

[0051] Two connecting columns are provided, both ends of which are fixed to the upper and lower frame plates of the outer frame. Both ends of the two connecting columns are fitted with a seventh bearing.

[0052] The straightening rollers are two in number, each sleeved on a corresponding connecting column. The two ends of the straightening rollers are fixedly connected to the outer ring of the corresponding seventh bearing. Steel fiber deflection correction grooves are provided on the outer walls of the two straightening rollers, and the gap between the steel fiber deflection correction grooves on the two straightening rollers is the steel fiber inlet.

[0053] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are as follows: when steel fibers are inserted into the steel fiber insertion port, the two straightening rollers can correct the deflection of the bent steel fibers, making it easier for the steel fibers to wrap around the outer spiral storage groove, thus avoiding the difficulty in wrapping the steel fibers around the outer spiral storage groove due to their large deflection and the difficulty in correcting them manually.

[0054] Furthermore, in step 2, before storing, the rubber on the surface of the steel fibers is completely removed. This prevents the rubber adhering to the steel fibers from occupying space in the outer spiral storage groove, thus avoiding the problem of insufficient steel fiber storage capacity.

[0070] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0071] like Figures 1-14 This invention discloses an environmentally friendly method for storing and protecting steel fibers, comprising the following steps:

[0072] Step 1: Fabricate the steel fiber storage device:

[0073] The steel fiber storage device includes:

[0074] The outer shell 1 can be a rectangular iron shell, with a steel fiber insertion window 101 and a steel fiber removal window 102 provided on one side wall;

[0075] The steel fiber storage roller assembly 2 is movably installed inside the outer shell 1. The outer cylinder wall of the steel fiber storage roller assembly 2 is provided with an outer spiral storage groove 231 for storing steel fibers. At the beginning of the groove of the outer spiral storage groove 231, a steel fiber fixing part 3 for constraining the head end of the steel fiber is fixed at the position corresponding to the steel fiber delivery window 101.

[0076] Drive assembly 4 is mounted on housing 1. The drive end of drive assembly 4 is connected to steel fiber storage roller assembly 2 and is used to drive the steel fiber storage roller assembly 2 to rotate and move along the axial direction of housing 1.

[0077] Step 2: Use the steel fiber storage device from Step 1 to store the steel fibers:

[0078] The specific method is as follows: The user places the head end of the steel fiber into the outer spiral storage groove 231 through the steel fiber delivery window 101 and constrains the head end of the steel fiber to the steel fiber fixing member 3. Then, the driving component 4 drives the steel fiber storage roller assembly 2 to rotate forward and move forward, so that the steel fiber is wrapped around the outer spiral storage groove 231, thus realizing the storage of the steel fiber. When it is necessary to remove the steel fiber, the user grabs the tail end of the steel fiber through the steel fiber removal window 102, and then drives the steel fiber storage roller assembly 2 to rotate in the opposite direction and move backward through the driving component 4, so that the steel fiber can be pulled out from the outer spiral storage groove 231, thus realizing the removal of the steel fiber.

[0079] The outer casing 1 has an observation port (not shown) for observing and adjusting the drive components at any time.

[0080] A transverse support rod 12 is fixed on the rear cover 11 of the outer casing 1. A translation constraint sleeve 13 is fitted on the rod end of the transverse support rod 12 away from the rear cover 11. A translation constraint rod 14 is fixed on the outer wall of the translation constraint sleeve 13. The steel fiber storage roller assembly 2 includes:

[0081] The front movable support frame 21 is sleeved on the end of the transverse support rod 12 away from the rear cover 11 and is located on one side of the translation constraint sleeve 13. The driving end of the driving component 4 is connected to the front movable support frame 21 and is used to drive the front movable support frame 21 to rotate.

[0082] The rear movable support frame 22 is sleeved on the other end of the transverse support rod 12;

[0083] The steel fiber storage roller 23 has its inner cylinder openings at both ends fixedly connected to the front movable support frame 21 and the rear movable support frame 22, respectively. The outer cylinder wall of the steel fiber storage roller 23 has an outer spiral storage groove 231, and the inner cylinder wall of the steel fiber storage roller 23 has an inner spiral translation constraint groove 232. The rod end of the translation constraint rod 14 that is away from the translation constraint sleeve 13 is inserted into the outer spiral storage groove 231.

[0084] Driver component 4 includes:

[0085] A drive rod 41 is placed inside the housing 1. One end of the drive rod 41 extends outward through the front cover 15 of the housing 1, and a handle 42 is fixed on this end. Preferably, in order to make the drive rod easy to drive and rotate, a crank rod can be fixed on one end of the drive rod. The handle 42 is installed at the end of the crank rod through a bearing. This can increase the rotational torque of the drive rod, making it easy to rotate the drive rod through the handle. Of course, the drive rod can also be directly driven to rotate by a motor, without the need for manual operation of the drive rod, which is more labor-saving. The other end of the drive rod 41 is rotatably connected to a connecting cylinder 43.

[0086] Rotary disk 44, the disk shaft on one side of the rotating disk 44 is rotatably connected to the first cylinder opening 431 of the connecting cylinder 43, and multiple sliding holes 441 are evenly distributed on the rotating disk 44;

[0087] There are multiple sliding support rods 45, one end of which is inserted into the sliding hole 441, and the other end of each is fixedly connected to the front movable support frame 21.

[0088] The intermediate transmission component 46 connects the drive rod 41 and the rotating disk 44.

[0089] A first bearing 47 is fixed inside the second opening 432 of the connecting cylinder 43, and the other end of the drive rod 41 is inserted into the inner ring of the first bearing 47.

[0090] The front movable support frame 21 includes:

[0091] The front support plate 211 is sleeved on one end of the transverse support rod 12 via the second bearing 212 and is located on one side of the translation constraint sleeve 13. One side of the front support plate 211 is fixedly connected to the other end of the sliding support rod 45.

[0092] There are multiple front support rods 213, one end of which is evenly distributed and fixed on the outer peripheral wall of the front support plate 211, and the other end of each is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one end of the steel fiber collecting roller 23.

[0093] The rear movable support frame 22 includes:

[0094] The rear support plate 221 is sleeved on the other end of the transverse support rod 12 via the third bearing 222.

[0095] There are multiple rear support rods 223, one end of which is evenly distributed and fixed on the outer peripheral wall of the rear support plate 221, and the other end of each is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the other end of the steel fiber collecting roller 23.

[0096] Rotary disk 44 is the fourth driven gear, and intermediate transmission component 46 includes:

[0097] Drive gear 461 is sleeved on drive rod 41 and located inside housing 1;

[0098] The first driven gear 462 has a wheel axle on one side rotatably mounted on the front cover 15 and located inside the outer casing 1. The first driven gear 462 meshes with the drive gear 461 for transmission.

[0099] The second driven gear 463 has a wheel axle on one side that is rotatably mounted on the front cover 15 and located inside the outer casing 1. The second driven gear 463 is meshed with the first driven gear 462 for transmission.

[0100] Driven rotating rod 464, one end of which is fixedly connected to the other side of the second driven gear 463;

[0101] The third driven gear 465 is fixedly connected on one side to the other end of the driven rotating rod 464, and the third driven gear 465 is meshed with the fourth driven gear for transmission.

[0102] One end of the drive lever 41 is mounted on the front cover 15 via the fourth bearing 466, the axle of the first driven gear 462 is mounted on the front cover 15 via the fifth bearing 467, and the axle of the second driven gear 463 is mounted on the front cover 15 via the sixth bearing 468.

[0103] The steel fiber fastener 3 includes a fixing block 31, which is fixed on the starting slot of the outer spiral receiving groove 231. The fixing block 31 has multiple fixing holes 311 for inserting and fixing multiple steel fiber ends.

[0104] The fixing hole 311 is a tapered hole. The large end 3111 of the fixing hole 311 is arranged facing the steel fiber delivery window 101, and the small end 3112 of the fixing hole 311 is arranged away from the steel fiber delivery window 101.

[0105] In another embodiment, the environmentally friendly steel fiber storage and protection method further includes a steel fiber deflection corrector 5 fixed to the steel fiber delivery window 101, which includes:

[0106] Outer frame 51, which is fixed to the steel fiber delivery window 101;

[0107] There are two connecting columns 52, both ends of which are fixed to the upper and lower frame plates of the outer frame 51. Both ends of the two connecting columns 52 are fitted with the seventh bearing 53.

[0108] There are two straightening rollers 54, which are respectively sleeved on the corresponding connecting column 52. The two ends of the straightening rollers 54 are respectively fixedly connected to the outer ring of the corresponding seventh bearing 53. The outer cylinder wall of the two straightening rollers 54 is provided with steel fiber deflection correction grooves 541. The gap between the steel fiber deflection correction grooves 541 on the two straightening rollers 54 is the steel fiber inlet 542.

[0109] The process of inserting steel fibers in step 2 is as follows: the steel fibers are inserted into the steel fiber insertion port 542. At this time, the two straightening rollers 54 can correct the deflection of the bent steel fibers, making it easier for the steel fibers to wrap around the outer spiral receiving groove 231.

[0110] In step 2, the specific steps for storing the steel fibers are as follows:

[0111] The steel fiber tip is manually inserted into the outer shell through the steel fiber inlet, and then moved along the starting groove of the outer spiral collecting groove until the steel fiber tip passes through the fixing hole on the fixing block, thus fixing the steel fiber tip to the steel fiber collecting roller. Then, by turning the handle counterclockwise, the drive rod is driven. When the drive rod rotates, the drive gear on it rotates counterclockwise along with the drive rod, thereby driving the first driven gear to rotate clockwise. The first driven gear drives the second driven gear to rotate counterclockwise. The second driven gear, through the driven gear, rotates clockwise. The lever drives the third driven gear to rotate counterclockwise, which in turn drives the fourth driven gear, i.e., the rotating disk, to rotate clockwise. Simultaneously, the rotating disk rotates, causing the sliding support rod on it to rotate clockwise. This, in turn, drives the front-end movable support frame to rotate clockwise, ultimately achieving clockwise rotation of the steel fiber storage roller. Furthermore, with the cooperation of the moving constraint rod and the inner spiral translation constraint groove, the steel fiber storage roller moves forward. As the steel fiber storage roller moves forward, the sliding support rod, fixed to the front-end movable support frame, extends forward through the sliding hole. Therefore, by utilizing the clockwise rotation and forward movement of the steel fiber storage roller, steel fibers can be wound around the external thread for storage, thus realizing the operation of storing steel fibers on the steel fiber storage roller.

[0112] During the storage of steel fibers, the steel fibers can be adjusted at any time through the steel fiber removal window to ensure that they are stored in the outer spiral storage groove, thus preventing them from jumping out of the groove due to their own deflection.

[0113] In addition, when the steel fiber is wound in the outer spiral storage groove, the steel fiber itself can be wound more tightly in the outer spiral storage groove through its own deflection. This can save storage space in the spiral storage groove and can store more steel fibers.

[0114] In step 2, the specific procedure for removing the steel fibers from the steel fiber storage roller is as follows:

[0115] A person manually grasps the tail end of the steel fiber through the steel fiber extraction window. Then, another operator rotates the drive rod clockwise by turning the handle. As the drive rod rotates, the drive gear on it rotates clockwise along with the drive rod, which in turn drives the first driven gear to rotate counterclockwise. The first driven gear drives the second driven gear to rotate clockwise. The second driven gear drives the third driven gear to rotate clockwise through the driven rod. The third driven gear drives the fourth driven gear, i.e., the rotating disk, to rotate counterclockwise. At the same time, the rotating disk drives the sliding support rod on it to rotate counterclockwise, which in turn drives the front moving support frame to rotate counterclockwise. Finally, the steel fiber collecting roller rotates counterclockwise. Then, with the cooperation of the moving constraint rod and the inner spiral translation constraint groove, the steel fiber collecting roller moves backward. When the steel fiber collecting roller moves backward, the sliding support fixed to the front moving support frame moves backward in the sliding hole. Therefore, by using the counterclockwise rotation and backward movement of the steel fiber collecting roller, the steel fiber can be taken out from the outer spiral collecting groove, thus realizing the operation of taking the steel fiber out of the steel fiber collecting roller.

[0116] Therefore, in actual testing and engineering construction, tire bead wires, i.e., steel fibers, are often carelessly discarded, causing considerable trouble in terms of sorting and disposal. This application effectively solves this problem by enabling unified collection and management of waste steel fibers. This application is simple and easy to operate; even beginners can successfully operate the device without complex training. Furthermore, the assembly parts are relatively simple, and the simple mechanical structure makes the whole unit less prone to damage, increasing economic benefits and environmental value.
