Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of tire mold technology, and in particular to a tire vulcanization mold texture cleaning device. Background Technology
[0002] Tire molds refer to the molds used for vulcanizing and molding various types of tires. Tire mold classification 1: Flexible mold, consisting of a tread ring, mold sleeve, and upper and lower side plates. Flexible molds are further divided into conical surface guided flexible molds and inclined plane guided flexible molds. 2: Two-part mold, consisting of an upper mold and a lower mold.
[0003] During the tire vulcanization process, rubber, release agents, sulfides, inorganic oxides, and other contaminants inevitably remain in the mold patterns (tread blocks, vents, etc.). The harm caused by these residues is mainly reflected in two aspects: 1. Affecting tire quality: Residues can cause defects such as insufficient rubber, flow marks, and unclear tread patterns on the tire surface, reducing the tire's appearance quality and performance (such as grip and water drainage); 2. Shortening mold life: Residues can corrode the mold surface, accelerate mold wear and aging, and increase mold maintenance and replacement costs.

[0022] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.
[0023] See Figure 1-6 The present invention provides a tire vulcanizing mold texture cleaning device, including a base 1 and a vertical plate 3. The vertical plate 3 is fixedly installed on the upper left edge of the base 1. The four corners of the lower side of the base 1 are fixedly installed with moving wheels 11. The device also includes a cleaning table 2 and a laser cleaner 19. The cleaning table 2 is installed on the upper side of the base 1, and the laser cleaner 19 is arranged above the cleaning table 2. The laser cleaner 19 is connected to the clamp of the connecting rod 5. The connecting rod 5 is installed on the lower side of the telescopic plate 7. The telescopic plate 7 is telescopically connected to the support plate 8. The support plate 8 is installed on the vertical plate 3 and moves up and down along the vertical plate 3.
[0024] In use, the tire vulcanizing mold is placed on the cleaning table 2 and clamped by two clamping blocks 4. Then, the first motor screw 9 and the third motor screw 12 are operated to drive the laser cleaner 19 to move, so that the laser cleaner 19 falls into the interior of the tire vulcanizing mold. Then, the laser cleaner 19 is started and the first servo motor 6 and the second servo motor 20 are operated. The operation of the laser cleaner 19 instantly evaporates or peels off the residual rubber, release agent, sulfides, inorganic oxides and other contaminants attached to the texture and pores inside the tire vulcanizing mold. Then, the operation of the first servo motor 6 can drive the laser cleaner 19 to rotate 360° horizontally, and the operation of the second servo motor 20 can adjust the cleaning angle of the laser cleaner 19, so as to ensure the cleaning effect on the texture inside the tire vulcanizing mold.
[0025] The design of the movable wheel 11 allows the entire device to be moved, making it convenient to move the entire device to the machine tool for processing tire vulcanizing molds, thus shortening the transportation distance of the tire vulcanizing molds.
[0026] During the cleaning process, a beam transmission and scanning system is needed to control the laser path, a dust collection system is needed to treat pollutants, and a water cooling system is needed to ensure stable equipment operation.
[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the base 1 has a guide groove and a sliding groove. The guide groove is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the sliding groove. The sliding groove is equipped with a second motor screw 10 and a sliding block 15. The guide groove is slidably connected to the guide rail 16. The guide rail 16 and the sliding block 15 are both fixedly installed on the lower side of the base plate 14. The cleaning table 2 is fixedly installed on the base plate 14. The second motor screw 10 is installed on the base 1 and drives the cleaning table 2 to move through the second motor screw 10.
[0028] Fixing blocks 18 are fixedly installed on the left and right edges of the upper side of the cleaning table 2. An electric cylinder 17 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixing block 18. The telescopic rod inside the electric cylinder 17 passes through the fixing block 18 and is fixedly connected to the outer side of the clamping block 4. There are two clamping blocks 4, which are both located between the two fixing blocks 18 and are located on the upper side of the cleaning table 2. The inner side of the clamping block 4 is provided with an arc-shaped groove.
[0029] During use, the second motor lead screw 10 drives the sliding block 15 to move, which in turn drives the base plate 14 and the cleaning table 2 to move left and right. This allows for adjustment of the position of the cleaning table 2, making it convenient to place the tire vulcanizing mold on the cleaning table 2 and to align the tire vulcanizing mold with the laser cleaner 19. The operation of the electric cylinder 17 drives the clamping block 4 to move, thereby clamping and fixing the tire vulcanizing mold and ensuring stability.
[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, a first servo motor 6 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the telescopic plate 7. The output shaft of the lower side of the first servo motor 6 is connected to the upper end of the connecting rod 5 and drives the connecting rod 5 to rotate. A connecting frame 51 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the connecting rod 5. The laser cleaner is rotatably connected to the connecting frame 51. A second servo motor 20 is fixedly connected to the right side of the connecting frame 51. The output shaft of the left side of the second servo motor 20 is connected to the laser cleaner and drives the laser cleaner to rotate through the second servo motor 20.
[0031] During use, the first servo motor 6 can drive the connecting rod 5 and the laser cleaner 19 to rotate horizontally 360°, while the second servo motor 20 can drive the laser cleaner 19 to rotate vertically, thus realizing the adjustment and control of the cleaning angle and range of the laser cleaner 19.
[0032] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the interior of the upright plate 3 has an opening slot, and a first motor screw 9 and a guide rod 13 are respectively installed inside the opening slot. The first motor screw 9 and the guide rod 13 are both inserted into the support plate 8 and connected to the upright plate 3. The operation of the first motor screw 9 can drive the support plate 8 to move up and down. The interior of the support plate 8 has an inner groove, and the left part of the telescopic plate 7 is slidably connected in the inner groove. A third motor screw 12 is also installed on the support plate 8. The right part of the third motor screw 12 is located in the inner groove and is connected to the telescopic plate 7. The interior of the telescopic plate 7 has a round hole, and the right part of the third motor screw 12 is located in the round hole.
[0033] During use, the first motor lead screw 9 and guide rod 13 can drive the support plate 8 and laser cleaner 19 to move up and down, facilitating the adjustment of the height of the laser cleaner 19. The third motor lead screw 12 can drive the telescopic plate 7 and laser cleaner 19 to move left and right, realizing the adjustment and control of the position of the laser cleaner 19. Moreover, by moving the telescopic plate 7 along the support plate 8, the laser cleaner 19 can be inserted into the machine tool to clean the internal texture of the tire vulcanizing mold fixed inside the machine tool.
