Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tire transportation, and specifically to an intelligent suspension transportation device for automobile tires. Background Art

[0002] In the supply chain of the automotive industry, the transportation of automobile tires from production to final loading onto vehicles is a closely linked process. After the tires are produced, they need to be transported to the automobile assembly plant for loading efficiently and safely. With the continuous growth of automobile production, the transportation volume of tires has also increased significantly, which has put forward higher requirements for the transportation efficiency and safety of tires. In the loading and transportation link of automobile tires, suspension transportation devices are widely used to lift and move the tires into the carriage for stacking and loading. This method has improved the loading and unloading efficiency of tires to a certain extent, and compared with other transportation methods, it can reduce the workload of manual handling.

[0003] When the traditional suspension transportation method is used to lift and move automobile tires, the tires will show obvious shaking.

[0004] Due to the relatively narrow space inside the carriage, the shaking tires bring many risks. On the one hand, the shaking tires may collide with the inner wall of the carriage. On the other hand, the shaking tires may also collide with the already stacked automobile tires. Such collisions may damage the stability of the stacked tires, cause the collapse of the stacking structure, and thus trigger a series of safety problems.

[0005] Secondly, after two adjacent tires are stacked and in contact, due to the elasticity of automobile tires, when the spreader suddenly retracts, the recovery process of the elastic deformation of the tires will generate irregular forces, which will cause the center of gravity to change instantaneously and inconsistently, and will cause the center of gravity of the lifted tire to change instantaneously, breaking the balance state of the stack. The originally neatly stacked tires may tilt, increasing the risk of collapse.

[0006] In view of this, the present application is specifically proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0019] Further, the sliding seat is of a cylindrical tube structure, and a sealed cavity is integrally formed inside it. A piston plate is slidably installed inside the sealed cavity. The telescopic end of the long-stroke cylinder penetrates through the top wall of the sliding seat and extends into the sealed cavity, and is fixedly connected to the top surface of the piston plate. A flexible air pipe is provided on the outer wall of the piston cylinder. One end of the flexible air pipe is connected to the outer wall of the piston cylinder and communicates with the sealed air chamber, and the other end is connected to the bottom wall of the sliding seat and communicates with the inside of the sealed cavity.

[0020] Further, a slider that can slide along the length direction is provided inside the suspension claw, and the bottom end of the connecting rod is hinged to the slider.

[0021] Furthermore, a plurality of connecting bars extending radially along the outer wall of the sliding seat are provided. The terminals of the connecting bars extending outwards are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the inner sleeve body. A channel for the connecting bars to slide is formed through the suspension arm, and the connecting bars are slidably arranged inside the channel.

[0022] Furthermore, it further includes a suspension member, and the suspension member includes

[0023] a telescopic member, including a fixed part and a sliding part slidably arranged inside the fixed part; one end of the sliding part extending outside the fixed part is fixedly connected with a suspension rod;

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0030] 1. In the present invention, the inner sleeve body is lifted and lowered by the sliding seat. When the inner sleeve body moves to the limit position of upward displacement, the outer sleeve body moves upward relative to the inner sleeve body, which can more evenly disperse the irregular acting forces generated by the recovery of the elastic deformation of the tire. Since the change of the contact points is carried out step by step, the force borne by each contact point can be effectively buffered and redistributed, thereby avoiding the instantaneous large offset of the center of gravity caused by excessive local force, making the change of the center of gravity of each tire more consistent, and effectively maintaining the balance state of the stacked tires.

[0031] 2. In the present invention, by delivering gas to the interior of the piston cylinder, the air pressure inside the piston cylinder is increased. Then, in a pressurized manner, the piston block inside is pushed to slide outward. The piston block drives the piston rod to displace synchronously. During the process of the piston rod sliding telescopically along the piston cylinder, it pushes the tensioning plate to rotate clockwise. The tensioning plate can adaptively conform to the contour of the inner circle of the tire body under the push of the piston rod, making the contact between the tire body and the tensioning plate closer, thereby improving the fixing stability of the tire body on the suspension claws.

[0032] 3. In the present invention, during the suspension transportation of the tire body, the tire body is suspended on the suspension arm and the suspension mechanism. When the tire body shows a tendency to shake, after the side support rod extends to an appropriate position, it can provide a supporting force from the side of the tire body. Multiple support rods are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the suspension arm, and the corresponding side support rods are also evenly distributed, limiting the tire from multiple directions, thereby preventing the tire from shaking.

[0050] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0051] Please refer to Figures 1-11 , the present invention provides a technical solution: an intelligent suspension conveying device for automobile tires, including,

[0052] A suspension arm 4 having a hollow chamber, inside which there is a slide seat 72 sliding along the axial direction of the suspension arm 4 and a long-distance cylinder 71 for driving the slide seat 72 to lift;

[0053] A telescopic kit 74 includes at least an inner sleeve body 741 and an outer sleeve body 743 slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the inner sleeve body 741. The inner sleeve body 741 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the suspension arm 4. A plurality of relief openings 745 extending vertically are provided on the outer sleeve body 743, and a connecting rod 75 is hinged on the side wall of the inner sleeve body 741 corresponding to the relief opening 745 on the outer sleeve body 743;

[0054] A plurality of suspension claws 77 are rotatably arranged on the outer peripheral wall of the suspension arm 4 near its lower end surface, and the free end of the connecting rod 75 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the suspension claw 77.

[0055] Specifically, the suspension mechanism 7 composed of the long-stroke cylinder 71, the sliding seat 72, the connecting bar 73, the telescopic kit 74 and the connecting rod 75 can play a role in positioning the tire during the process of suspending and transporting the tire body 5. During the specific use process;

[0056] Extension and contraction of the suspension claw 77:

[0057] Extension process

[0058] When the long-stroke cylinder 71 drives the sliding seat 72 to slide downward along the axial direction of the suspension arm 4, the sliding seat 72 will drive the telescopic kit 74 to move downward. Since the inner sleeve body 741 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the suspension arm 4 and the outer sleeve body 743 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the inner sleeve body 741, as the outer sleeve body 743 moves downward, the relative position between the plurality of vertically extending relief openings 745 provided on the outer sleeve body 743 and the side wall of the inner sleeve body 741 changes.

[0059] This relative position change causes the angle of the connecting rod 75 hinged to the side walls of the outer sleeve body 743 and the inner sleeve body 741 corresponding to the relief openings 745 to change. Since the free end of the connecting rod 75 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the suspension claw 77 rotatably arranged on the outer peripheral wall of the suspension arm 4 near the lower end surface, the change in the angle of the connecting rod 75 will push the suspension claw 77 to rotate outward, thereby realizing the extension action of the suspension claw 77.

[0060] Contraction process

[0061] When the long-stroke cylinder 71 drives the sliding seat 72 to slide upward along the axial direction of the suspension arm 4, the sliding seat 72 drives the inner sleeve body 741 to move upward. When the inner sleeve body 741 moves to the limit position of upward displacement, the outer sleeve body 743 moves upward relative to the inner sleeve body 741. During the upward movement of the inner sleeve body 741, this causes the angle of the connecting rod 75 connected to the outer wall of the inner sleeve body 741 to change in the opposite direction, thereby pulling several of the suspension claws 77 closer to the suspension arm 4. During the upward movement of the outer sleeve body 743, this causes the angle of the connecting rod 75 connected to the outer wall of the outer sleeve body 743 to change in the opposite direction, thereby pulling the remaining several suspension claws 77 closer to the suspension arm 4, realizing the contraction action of the suspension claws 77.

[0062] By adopting this unlocking procedure, multiple points of contact are adopted when unlocking the suspension mechanism 7, and then the contact points are gradually reduced, so that the force distribution on the tire during the transition from the suspension conveying state is more balanced. Compared with the traditional method, this method can more evenly disperse the irregular force generated by the elastic deformation recovery of the tire. Since the change of the contact point is gradual, the force borne by each contact point can be effectively buffered and redistributed, thereby avoiding the instantaneous large displacement of the center of gravity caused by excessive local force, making the change of the center of gravity of each tire more consistent, and effectively maintaining the balance state of the stacked tires.

[0063] This gradual change of contact points makes the force change of the tire body 5 gradual during the unlocking process of the suspension mechanism 7. It mitigates the sudden impact on the center of gravity due to the combined effect of the retraction of the suspension mechanism 7 and the elastic recovery of the tire body 5. The tire body 5 will not be suddenly subjected to unbalanced forces, resulting in an inconsistent instantaneous change in the center of gravity. Instead, during the gradual adjustment of multiple contact points, the tire body 5 adapts to the change in force in a relatively stable manner, thereby reducing the possibility of sudden changes in the center of gravity and greatly reducing the risk of tilting or collapse of the stacked tire body 5.

[0064] It should be noted that: in order to be able to suspend and transport multiple tire bodies 5, the intelligent suspension and transportation equipment for automobile tires of the present invention also includes a lifting platform 8 and a conveying assembly 9 installed on the lifting platform 8, the lifting platform 8 includes a download seat 81 and an upper loading seat 82, the download seat 81 and the upper loading seat 82 are connected by a scissor arm 83, and a lifting cylinder 84 for pushing the scissor arm 83 to move is also installed on the download seat 81, and a moving wheel 85 for moving the download seat 81 is installed at the bottom;

[0065] The conveying assembly 9 includes a frame 91 installed on the top of the upper carrier 82, and conveying wheels 92 are symmetrically installed on the frame 91. A conveying belt 93 is transmission-connected between the two conveying wheels 92. A conveying motor for driving the conveying wheels 92 to rotate is also installed on the frame 91, and multiple conveying seats 94 are installed at equal distances on the side walls of the conveying belt 93, and the suspension mechanism 7 is loaded on the conveying seat 94.

[0066] When the lifting platform 8 and the conveying assembly 9 are in working state,

[0067] When the lifting cylinder 84 starts to work, it will push the scissor arms 83 to move. Under the thrust of the lifting cylinder 84, the crossing angle of the scissor arms 83 will change. Since the scissor arms 83 connect the unloading seat 81 and the upper loading seat 82, as the crossing angle of the scissor arms 83 becomes smaller, the upper loading seat 82 will move upward relative to the unloading seat 81, thereby realizing the rising action of the lifting platform 8.

[0068] Descending process

[0069] When the lifting cylinder 84 works in the reverse direction or performs a pressure relief operation, the crossing angle of the scissor arms 83 gradually increases under the action of their own gravity and the gravity of the load.

[0070] This enables the upper loading seat 82 to move downward relative to the lower loading seat 81, thereby realizing the downward movement of the lifting platform 8, and the moving wheels 85 installed at the bottom of the lower loading seat 81 facilitate the position adjustment of the entire lifting platform 8 in the horizontal direction.

[0071] Conveying process

[0072] When the conveying motor is started, it drives the conveying wheel 92 to rotate. Since the two conveying wheels 92 are connected by the conveying belt 93, the rotation of one of the conveying wheels 92 drives the conveying belt 93 to perform a circular motion.

[0073] Multiple conveying seats 94 installed on the side walls of the conveyor belt 93 will move with the conveyor belt 93, and the suspension mechanism 7 is loaded on the conveying seats 94, so that the suspension mechanism 7 can move with the movement of the conveying seats 94, thereby realizing the conveyance of the tire body 5 loaded on the suspension mechanism 7.

[0074] When multiple tire bodies 5 are suspended for transportation, the transportation assembly 9 is first adjusted to a suitable height through the lifting action of the lifting platform 8. This height can be determined according to the actual production process requirements or the docking requirements with other equipment.

[0075] Then, the conveyor belt 93 in the conveying assembly 9 starts to run under the drive of the conveying motor, and the conveying seat 94 on the conveyor belt 93 drives the suspension mechanism 7 to move. The suspension mechanism 7 then suspends the tire body 5 and realizes the transportation of the tire as the conveying seat 94 moves.

[0076] Since a plurality of conveying seats 94 are installed at equal distances on the side wall of the conveying belt 93, and the suspension mechanism 7 is loaded on the conveying seats 94, it means that a plurality of tire bodies 5 can be suspended and conveyed at the same time. In the automobile production process, it is usually necessary to process a plurality of tires at the same time. This design can meet the needs of mass production and further improve production efficiency.

[0077] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 , also includes a suspension part, the suspension part includes

[0078] The telescopic member 1 comprises a fixed portion and a sliding portion slidably arranged inside the fixed portion; one end of the sliding portion extending outside the fixed portion is fixedly connected to a hanging rod 2;

[0079] The hanging ring 3 is buckled on the bottom end of the hanging rod 2, and the bottom end of the hanging ring 3 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the hanging arm 4.

[0080] Specifically, during use, the telescopic member 1 is installed on the conveying base 94. By cooperating the provided telescopic member 1 with the lifting platform 8, the tire body 5 can be moved to a specified position for stacking. Moreover, by means of the suspension rod 2 and the lifting ring 3 provided on the telescopic member 1, it is convenient to insert the suspension arm 4 into the tire body 5 for lifting.

[0081] Refer to Figures 8-11 , on the outer wall of the outer sleeve 743 between two adjacent relief openings 745, a second hinge seat 744 is provided. The first hinge seat 742 and the second hinge seat 744 are arranged in an equidistant circular array around the outer sleeve 743 and / or the inner sleeve 741.

[0082] Specifically, the first hinge seat 742 and the second hinge seat 744 provided facilitate connecting the connecting rod 75 to the inner sleeve 741 and the outer sleeve 743.

[0083] Refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 , at one end of each suspension claw 77 extending outward, a tensioning plate 78 is rotatably connected through a torsion assembly. The torsion assembly includes,

[0084] a rotating shaft, rotatably installed at one end of the suspension claw 77 away from the suspension arm 4, and the tensioning plate 78 is fixed to it at the lower side;

[0085] a torsion spring, sleeved on the rotating shaft, with one end fixed to the outer wall of the rotating shaft and the other end fixed to the side wall of the suspension claw 77.

[0086] Specifically, by providing the tensioning plate 78, the contact between the tire body 5 and the suspension claw 77 becomes closer, thereby improving the fixing stability of the tire body 5 on the suspension claw 77;

[0087] and the initial elastic force of the torsion spring will drive the tensioning plate 78 to rotate counterclockwise.

[0088] Refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 , it further includes a piston member 79. The piston member 79 includes,

[0089] a piston cylinder 791, arranged on the top surface of the suspension claw 77, with a piston block 792 slidably connected inside it. A sealed air chamber is formed between the piston block 792 and the inner bottom wall of the piston cylinder 791;

[0090] a piston rod 793, which can slide along the inner wall of the piston cylinder 791, with one end connected to the piston block 792 and the other end extending outside the piston cylinder 791 and abutting against the tensioning plate 78.

[0091] Specifically, by delivering gas to the inside of the piston cylinder 791, the air pressure inside the piston cylinder 791 is increased. Then, the pressurized method is used to push the piston block 792 inside it to slide outward. The piston block 792 will drive the piston rod 793 to displace synchronously. During the process of the piston rod 793 sliding in and out along the piston cylinder 791, it pushes the tensioning plate 78 to rotate clockwise. The tensioning plate 78 can adaptively fit the contour of the inner circle of the tire body 5 under the push of the piston rod 793, making the contact between the tire body 5 and the tensioning plate 78 closer, thereby improving the fixing stability of the tire body 5 on the suspension claw 77.

[0092] Refer to Figures 9-11 , the sliding seat 72 is of a cylindrical tube structure, and a sealing cavity 721 is integrally formed inside it. A piston plate 722 is slidably installed inside the sealing cavity 721. The telescopic end of the long-stroke cylinder 71 penetrates the top wall of the sliding seat 72 and extends into the sealing cavity 721, and is fixedly connected to the top surface of the piston plate 722. A flexible air tube 794 is provided on the outer wall of the piston cylinder 791. One end of the flexible air tube 794 is connected to the outer wall of the piston cylinder 791 and communicates with the sealed air chamber, and the other end is connected to the bottom wall of the sliding seat 72 and communicates with the inside of the sealing cavity 721.

[0093] Specifically, during the process of the long-stroke cylinder 71 driving the sliding seat 72 to expand and contract, when the telescopic end of the long-stroke cylinder 71 moves downward, it will push the piston plate 722 to slide vertically downward along the inner wall of the sealing cavity 721. The piston plate 722 can push the gas inside the sealing cavity 721 into the piston cylinder 791 through the flexible air tube 794, achieving the effect of supplying gas to the piston cylinder 791.

[0094] Refer to Figures 8-11 , a slider 76 that can slide along its length direction is provided inside the suspension claw 77, and the bottom end of the connecting rod 75 is hinged to the slider 76.

[0095] Specifically, the slider 76 provided enables the connecting rod 75 to push the suspension claw 77 to expand over a larger range to adapt to tire bodies 5 of different sizes.

[0096] Refer to Figures 8-11 , a plurality of connecting strips 73 extending radially are provided on the outer wall of the sliding seat 72. The terminals where the connecting strips 73 extend outward are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the inner sleeve body 741. A channel for the connecting strips 73 to slide is formed through the suspension arm 4, and the connecting strips 73 are slidably arranged inside the channel.

[0097] Specifically, the connecting strips 73 provided fixedly connect the sliding seat 72 and the inner sleeve body 741, so that the inner sleeve body 741 can displace synchronously with the sliding seat 72 during the sliding process of the sliding seat 72.

[0098] Refer to Figures 4-7 , further includes an anti-sway mechanism 6, and the anti-sway mechanism 6 includes

[0099] A plurality of support rods 61 extend vertically outward from the outer wall of the suspension arm 4, and a side abutting rod 62 is rotatably connected to the extending end thereof;

[0100] A short-stroke cylinder 63, one end of which is rotatably connected to the top end of the side abutting rod 62, and the other end is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the suspension rod 2.

[0101] Specifically, when the short-stroke cylinder 63 expands and contracts, since one end of the short-stroke cylinder 63 is rotatably connected to the top end of the side abutting rod 62 and the other end is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the suspension rod 2, the expansion and contraction of the short-stroke cylinder 63 will drive the side abutting rod 62 to rotate around its rotation connection point with the support rod 61.

[0102] When the short-stroke cylinder 63 extends, the side abutting rod 62 will rotate outward around the rotation connection point of the support rod 61 and extend to a suitable position; when the short-stroke cylinder 63 retracts, the side abutting rod 62 will rotate inward and retract.

[0103] During the suspension and transportation of the tire body 5, the tire body 5 is suspended on the suspension arm 4 and the suspension mechanism 7. When the tire body 5 has a tendency to shake, after the side abutting rod 62 extends to a suitable position, it can provide a supporting force from the side of the tire body 5. The plurality of support rods 61 are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the suspension arm 4, and the corresponding side abutting rods 62 are also evenly distributed, limiting the tire in multiple directions, thereby preventing the tire from shaking.

[0104] It should be noted that: before the tire body 5 is suspended and starts to be transported, the short-stroke cylinder 63 can adjust the position of the side abutting rod 62 according to the size of the tire and other conditions. During the transportation process, when components such as the suspension arm 4 cause the tire to shake due to factors such as equipment operation or external interference, the side abutting rod 62 of the anti-shake mechanism 6 will play a role and prevent the tire from shaking, ensuring the stability of the tire during the transportation process;

[0105] Effectively suppressing the shaking can limit the shaking amplitude of the tire, reduce the possibility of collision between the tires or between the tire and the surrounding equipment, and improve the stability during the tire transportation process.

[0106] Refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 On the side wall of the side abutting rod 62, a toothed ring 64 is provided with its rotation point as the axis. On the support rod 61, a gear 65 meshing with the toothed ring 64 is provided. On the support rod 61, a first toothed rod 66 that can slide vertically along it is provided. The first toothed rod 66 meshes with the gear 65. A second toothed rod 67 is slidably arranged on the support rod 61. The second toothed rod 67 is arranged at an acute angle with the support rod 61. The second toothed rod 67 is located above the gear 65 and is meshed and connected with the gear 65. One end of the second toothed rod 67 is connected with a support plate 68, and the support plate 68 abuts tightly against the outer wall of the suspension rod 2.

[0107] Specifically, when the side abutting rod 62 rotates around its rotation point, since a toothed ring 64 with its rotation point as the axis is provided on the side wall of the side abutting rod 62, and a gear 65 provided on the support rod 61 meshes with the toothed ring 64, the rotation of the side abutting rod 62 will drive the gear 65 to rotate.

[0108] The gear 65 meshes with both the first toothed rod 66 and the second toothed rod 67. When the gear 65 rotates, the first toothed rod 66 will slide vertically along the support rod 61 and can abut against the tire body 5 from top to bottom to provide pressure to it. Since the second toothed rod 67 is arranged at an acute angle with the support rod 61 and is located above the gear 65 and meshes with the gear 65, the rotation of the gear 65 will also cause the second toothed rod 67 to slide on the support rod 61.

[0109] One end of the second toothed rod 67 is connected with a support plate 68. As the second toothed rod 67 slides, the position of the support plate 68 will change. Since the support plate 68 tightly abuts against the outer wall of the suspension rod 2, the change in the position of the support plate 68 will adjust the tight abutting degree between it and the suspension rod 2, making the hanging ring 3 closely adhere to the suspension rod 2, reducing the movement amplitude of the hanging ring 3, and improving the anti-sway effect of the overall suspension transportation.

[0110] Multi-directional collaborative anti-sway

[0111] By directly blocking the tire sway from the side by the side abutting rod 62 and the dynamic adjustment of the tight abutting relationship between the support plate 68 and the outer wall of the suspension rod 2, the tire sway can be prevented collaboratively from multiple directions. The side abutting rod 62 mainly restricts the lateral sway of the tire, while the support and tight abutting effects of the support plate 68 on the suspension rod 2 can reduce the sway of the suspension arm 4 itself, thereby indirectly reducing the sway of the tire. This multi-directional collaborative effect can more effectively suppress the sway of the tire during the suspension transportation process.
