Figure 1 The following is a schematic diagram of the temperature curve of the vulcanizing medium in the capsule during vulcanization in the existing vulcanization system. Therefore, before the vulcanizing medium is circulated for vulcanization, Figure 1 The time period from t1 to t3 shown in the figure requires the introduction of high-pressure vulcanization medium into the tire vulcanization system, and the high-pressure vulcanization medium is heated by the heating element, so that the temperature in the capsule rises rapidly to the required temperature T2 and pressure requirements. However, in the process of introducing the high-pressure vulcanization medium into the capsule, since the high-pressure vulcanization medium flows very quickly, it will quickly take away a large amount of heat from the heating element, so that the temperature of the vulcanization medium gas in the capsule will rise rapidly to temperature T3 in the time period from t1 to t2, and then drop to temperature T2 at time t3, that is, there is a situation where the temperature fluctuation of the vulcanization medium in the capsule is relatively large.

A second heating pipeline 70B and a second cooling pipeline 80B are connected, a first heating element 71A is provided on the first heating pipeline 70A, a first valve element 81A is provided on the first cooling pipeline 80A, a second heating element 71B is provided on the second heating pipeline 70B, and a second valve element 81B is provided on the second cooling pipeline 80B. The control system is used to control the conduction of the first valve element 81A and the second valve element 81B respectively, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the first cooling pipeline 80A and the second cooling pipeline 80B respectively, thereby controlling the temperature of the vulcanization medium entering the first capsule 12A and the second capsule 12B respectively, so that the temperature of the vulcanization medium entering the first capsule 12A and the second capsule 12B will not rise too high, so that the temperature change of the vulcanization medium in the first capsule 12A and the second capsule 12B during the vulcanization process is smoother, and better meets their respective vulcanization requirements.
[0031] The circulating air inlet pipeline 91 includes a first circulating air inlet pipeline 91A and a second circulating air inlet pipeline 91B, wherein the first circulating air inlet pipeline 91A is connected to the first capsule air outlet pipeline 40A, and the second circulating air inlet pipeline 91B is connected to the second capsule air outlet pipeline 40B, wherein the first circulating air inlet pipeline 91A and the second circulating air inlet pipeline 91B are connected in series, and the medium circulation device 20 is connected to the first circulating air inlet pipeline 91A, and the medium circulation device 20 is connected to the first capsule air outlet pipeline 40A through the first circulating air inlet pipeline 91A, and the medium circulation device 20 is connected to the second capsule air outlet pipeline 40B after passing through the first circulating air inlet pipeline 91A and the second circulating air inlet pipeline 91B.
[0032] like Figure 3As shown, the circulating air outlet pipeline 92 includes a first circulating air outlet pipeline 92A and a second circulating air outlet pipeline 92B, the first circulating air outlet pipeline 92A is connected to the first capsule air inlet pipeline 30A, and the second circulating air outlet pipeline 92B is connected to the second capsule air inlet pipeline 30B, wherein the first circulating air outlet pipeline 92A and the second circulating air outlet pipeline 92B are connected in series, the medium circulation device 20 is connected to the first circulating air outlet pipeline 92A, the medium circulation device 20 is connected to the first capsule air inlet pipeline 30A through the first circulating air outlet pipeline 92A, and the medium circulation device 20 is connected to the second capsule air inlet pipeline 30B after passing through the first circulating air outlet pipeline 92A and the second circulating air outlet pipeline 92B.
[0033] In the above embodiment, when the vulcanization medium is in the process of cyclic vulcanization, the vulcanization medium entering the second capsule 12B will share the first cyclic air outlet pipeline 92A with the vulcanization medium entering the first capsule 12A. Therefore, during the cyclic vulcanization process, there is no way to completely achieve independent control of the temperature and pressure of the vulcanization medium in the first capsule 12A and the second capsule 12B, so as to better meet the temperature and pressure requirements of each capsule. Figure 4 As shown, in another embodiment, the first circulation outlet pipeline 92A and the second circulation outlet pipeline 92B can be connected in parallel, and the medium circulation device 20 is respectively connected to the first circulation outlet pipeline 92A and the second circulation outlet pipeline 92B, and the medium circulation device 20 is connected to the first capsule inlet pipeline 30A through the first circulation outlet pipeline 92A, and the medium circulation device 20 is connected to the second capsule inlet pipeline 30B through the second circulation outlet pipeline 92B. Through the above arrangement, the temperature and pressure in the first capsule 12A and the second capsule 12B can be better controlled separately during the cyclic vulcanization process.
[0034] It should be noted that in the attached Figure 3 and 4 In the schematic diagram of the tire vulcanization system with a dual-station cooling pipeline, the first valve element 81A on the first cooling pipeline 80A is only illustrated as a switch valve, and the second valve element 81B on the second cooling pipeline 80B is only illustrated as a proportional valve. Of course, the first valve element 81A on the first cooling pipeline 80A can also be a proportional valve, and the second valve element 81B on the second cooling pipeline 80B can also be a switch valve.
[0035] No matter the above-mentioned first circulation air outlet pipeline 92A and the second circulation air outlet pipeline 92B are connected in series or in parallel, the first capsule 12A and the second capsule 12B are connected in parallel with the medium circulation device 20, that is, the first capsule 12A can be individually subjected to circulation vulcanization of the vulcanization medium through the medium circulation device 20, the first circulation air outlet pipeline 92A, the first capsule air inlet pipeline 30A, the first capsule air outlet pipeline 40A and the first circulation air inlet pipeline 91A.

[0036] The tire vulcanization system of the present invention may further include a series-parallel switching pipeline 93 provided with a first switch valve F1 and a second switch valve F2 provided on the first capsule air outlet pipeline 40A, so that the circulation vulcanization of the vulcanization medium for the first capsule 12A and the second capsule 12B in series connection can be realized as needed. By closing the second switch valve F2 on the first capsule air outlet pipeline 40A, the first switch F1 valve on the series-parallel switching pipeline 93 is turned on, and the circulation vulcanization of the vulcanization medium for the first capsule 12A and the second capsule 12B is carried out simultaneously through the medium circulation device 20, the first circulation air outlet pipeline 92A, the first capsule air inlet pipeline 30A, the first capsule air outlet pipeline 40A, the series-parallel switching pipeline 93, the second circulation air outlet pipeline 92B, the second capsule air inlet pipeline 30B, the second capsule air outlet pipeline 40B, the second circulation air inlet pipeline 91B and the first circulation air inlet pipeline 91A.
[0037] The cyclic vulcanization of the vulcanizing medium can be carried out in the above-mentioned series or parallel connection mode as required.
[0038] The low-pressure vulcanization medium inflation pipeline 51 described in the present invention also includes a first low-pressure vulcanization medium inflation pipeline 51A and a second low-pressure vulcanization medium inflation pipeline 51B. The first low-pressure vulcanization medium inflation pipeline 51A is connected to the first capsule air inlet pipeline 30A, and the second low-pressure vulcanization medium inflation pipeline 51B is connected to the second capsule air inlet pipeline 30B. The first capsule 12A is inflated and shaped by the separate first low-pressure vulcanization medium inflation pipeline 51A and the second capsule 12B is inflated and shaped by the separate second low-pressure vulcanization medium inflation pipeline 51B to meet the different usage conditions of the capsules.
[0039] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the present invention also discloses a control method for a tire vulcanization system with a cooling pipeline, which includes the following steps: S1: introducing a low-pressure vulcanization medium into a capsule 12 through a low-pressure vulcanization medium inflation pipeline 51 and a capsule air inlet pipeline 30 to shape the green tire; S2: introducing a high-pressure vulcanization medium into the vulcanization system through a high-pressure vulcanization medium inflation pipeline 52 and a heating pipeline 70 in the capsule air inlet pipeline 30 and heating the high-pressure vulcanization medium, so that the high-temperature and high-pressure vulcanization medium enters the capsule 12 to heat the capsule 12; S3: the high-temperature and high-pressure vulcanization medium is circulated and vulcanized in a loop formed by a medium circulation device 20, a capsule air inlet pipeline 30, a capsule 12, and a capsule air outlet pipeline 40; S4: recovering or emptying the vulcanization medium through an exhaust pipeline 60; wherein, in step S2 or S, the real-time The vulcanization medium temperature TC1 after being heated by the heating pipeline 70 (i.e., after being heated by the heating pipeline 70 on the capsule air inlet pipeline 30 and before entering the capsule 12) is detected, and the real-time detected vulcanization medium temperature TC1 is compared with the threshold value TC0 (the threshold value TC0 is the ideal temperature that should be reached at the corresponding detection position in step S2 or step S3 under the ideal state of stable temperature change, which can be a certain temperature value or a certain temperature range) through the control system to determine whether the vulcanization medium temperature TC1 is greater than the threshold value TC0, thereby controlling the opening of the cooling pipeline 80 in the capsule air inlet pipeline 30. When the real-time detected vulcanization medium temperature TC1 is greater than the threshold value TC0, the cooling pipeline 80 is opened; when the real-time detected vulcanization medium temperature TC1 is less than or equal to the threshold value TC0, the cooling pipeline 80 is not opened.
[0040] A switch valve 81 may be provided on the cooling pipeline 80. When the real-time detected temperature TC1 of the vulcanizing medium is greater than the threshold value TC0, the switch valve 81 is turned on to open the cooling pipeline 80. Then, part of the high-pressure vulcanizing medium will pass through the heating pipeline 70 having the heating element 71 to heat the high-pressure vulcanizing medium, and another part of the high-pressure vulcanizing medium will pass through the cooling pipeline 80 to maintain the original temperature. After the vulcanizing media of different temperatures in the heating pipeline 70 and the cooling pipeline 80 are mixed, the temperature will be lower than the temperature of the vulcanizing medium that has completely passed through the heating pipeline 70, thereby reducing the temperature of the vulcanizing medium entering the capsule 12.
[0041] like Figure 5As shown, specifically, when the real-time detected sulfurization medium temperature TC1 is greater than the threshold value TC0, the cooling pipeline 80 is opened, and the difference T0 between the sulfurization medium temperature TC1 and the threshold value TC0 is compared, so that the switch valve 81 corresponding to the time length t is turned on to open the cooling pipeline 80. That is, the cooling pipeline 80 can be turned on for different time lengths according to different sulfurization medium temperatures. When the difference T0 between the real-time detected sulfurization medium temperature TC1 and the threshold value TC0 is large, the switch valve 81 can be turned on for a long time to open the cooling pipeline 80; when the difference T0 between the real-time detected sulfurization medium temperature TC1 and the threshold value TC0 is small, the switch valve 81 can be turned on for a short time to open the cooling pipeline 80. Before mass production, the corresponding relationship between the difference T0 and the opening time t of the cooling pipeline 80 can be tested by debugging, so that during the mass production process, the opening time of the cooling pipeline is adjusted according to the difference T0, so that the temperature of the sulfurization medium meets the requirements.
[0042] like Figure 6 As shown, when the real-time detected vulcanization medium temperature TC1 is greater than the threshold value TC0, the switch valve 81 can also be turned on to open the cooling pipeline 80 until the vulcanization medium temperature TC1 is equal to the threshold value TC0, and then the switch valve 81 is closed to close the cooling pipeline 80. In this way, the temperature change curve of the vulcanization medium in the capsule is closer to the ideal vulcanization medium temperature change curve, thereby better meeting the temperature requirements during the vulcanization process.
[0043] like Figure 7 As shown, in another embodiment, a proportional valve 81 may be provided on the cooling pipeline 80. When the real-time detected temperature TC1 of the vulcanizing medium is greater than the threshold value TC0, the opening degree of the proportional valve 81 is adjusted, thereby adjusting the flow rate of the vulcanizing medium passing through the cooling pipeline 80 and the flow rate of the vulcanizing medium passing through the heating pipeline 70. When the opening degree of the proportional valve 81 is large, the flow rate of part of the vulcanizing medium passing through the cooling pipeline 80 is large, and the flow rate of part of the vulcanizing medium passing through the heating pipeline 70 is small. When the vulcanizing medium passing through the cooling pipeline 80 and the vulcanizing medium passing through the heating pipeline 70 are mixed, the temperature of the vulcanizing medium entering the capsule 12 will be much lower than the temperature of the vulcanizing medium passing through the heating pipeline 70. When the opening degree of the proportional valve 81 is small, the flow rate of the part of the vulcanization medium passing through the cooling pipeline 80 is small, and the flow rate of the part of the vulcanization medium passing through the heating pipeline 70 is large. When the vulcanization medium passing through the cooling pipeline 80 and the vulcanization medium passing through the heating pipeline 70 are mixed, the temperature of the vulcanization medium entering the capsule 12 will be slightly lower than the temperature of the vulcanization medium passing through the heating pipeline 70. When the real-time detected vulcanization medium temperature TC1 is less than or equal to the threshold value TC0, the opening degree of the proportional valve 81 is set to 0, that is, the vulcanization medium is not cooled through the cooling pipeline 80, and is heated through the heating pipeline 70.
[0044] The adjustment of the opening degree of the proportional valve 81 described in the present invention can be performed in the following manner. When the difference between the real-time detected vulcanization medium temperature TC1 and the threshold value TC0 is large, that is, the temperature of the vulcanization medium entering the capsule 12 is high, the opening degree of the proportional valve 81 can be set to the maximum first, and then the opening degree of the proportional valve 81 is adjusted from large to small until the real-time detected vulcanization medium temperature TC1 is equal to the threshold value TC0, and the opening degree of the proportional valve 81 is maintained, so that after the vulcanization medium passing through the cooling pipeline 80 and the vulcanization medium passing through the heating pipeline 70 are mixed, the temperature of the vulcanization medium entering the capsule 12 meets the requirement.
[0045] When the difference between the real-time detected vulcanization medium temperature TC1 and the threshold value TC0 is small, that is, the difference between the temperature of the vulcanization medium entering the capsule 12 and the ideal temperature is small, the opening degree of the proportional valve 81 can be set to the minimum first, and then the opening degree of the proportional valve 81 can be adjusted from small to large until the real-time detected vulcanization medium temperature TC1 is equal to the threshold value TC0. The opening degree of the proportional valve 81 is maintained, so that after the vulcanization medium passing through the cooling pipeline 80 and the vulcanization medium passing through the heating pipeline 70 are mixed, the temperature of the vulcanization medium entering the capsule meets the requirements.
