Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of tire vulcanization parameter optimization, and in particular to a dynamic optimization system for tire vulcanization parameters. Background Technology

[0002] Vulcanization is a crucial step in tire manufacturing, directly impacting the tire's physical properties, lifespan, and safety. Traditional tire vulcanization processes typically employ fixed parameters, such as vulcanization temperature, pressure, and time. However, in actual production, due to variations in raw material batches, equipment conditions, and environmental factors, fixed parameters often fail to guarantee optimal vulcanization results for every batch of tires. While some technologies attempt to adjust vulcanization parameters, most rely on offline detection and analysis, failing to reflect real-time changes during production and hindering timely and effective dynamic optimization. This limits further improvements in tire vulcanization quality and production efficiency.

[0003] For example, the existing technology announcement number CN114428995A provides an improved heating method for tires during vulcanization, including the following steps: S10, modeling the existing steam vulcanization equipment; S20, modeling the equipment based on the model established in step S10.

[0004] Existing technologies lack optimization processing for various parameters during tire vulcanization, which reduces the overall optimization effect. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a dynamic parameter optimization system for tire vulcanization that enables dynamic adaptive adjustment of the process, achieving precise monitoring, dynamic optimization, and intelligent execution of the tire vulcanization process. This system improves product quality stability, production efficiency, and resource utilization while reducing human intervention and equipment wear.

[0006] The present invention provides a dynamic optimization system for tire vulcanization parameters, comprising a data acquisition module, a data receiving and storage unit, a data analysis and processing module, and a parameter adjustment module; Data acquisition module: Responsible for real-time acquisition of various key parameters during the tire vulcanization process, including vulcanization temperature, vulcanization pressure, vulcanization time, rubber properties, mold temperature, ambient temperature and humidity. The data acquisition module uses various types of sensors, which are installed at the corresponding positions of the vulcanization equipment to acquire the required data in real time, and convert the acquired analog signals into digital signals before transmitting them to the data analysis and processing module. Data analysis and processing module: includes a data receiving and storage unit, a data analysis unit, and a parameter optimization unit; Data receiving and storage unit: Receives temperature, humidity, pressure, time, and rubber characteristic data from the data acquisition module, cleans and filters the data, and stores the processed data in the database; Data Analysis Unit: Based on a large amount of experimental data and experience, a vulcanization process model is established. The pre-set vulcanization process model and algorithm are used to analyze the processed data to determine whether the current vulcanization state is normal. By comparing it with the pre-set vulcanization quality standard, it is determined whether the current vulcanization parameters need to be adjusted and the direction and extent of the adjustment. Parameter optimization unit: Based on the results of the data analysis unit, combined with the preset optimization objectives and constraints, dynamically generates optimized vulcanization parameters and sends the optimized vulcanization parameters to the parameter adjustment module; Parameter adjustment module: includes temperature regulation unit, pressure regulation unit and time control unit; Temperature control unit: Based on the optimized temperature parameters generated by the data analysis and processing module, it controls the heating system of the vulcanizing mold and adjusts the mold temperature in real time. The temperature control unit adopts electric heating and achieves precise temperature control through an intelligent controller. Pressure regulating unit: Based on optimized pressure parameters, adjusts the pressurization system of the vulcanizing equipment to change the pressure borne by the tires. By using a hydraulic regulating device, it ensures stable and accurate pressure adjustment. Time Control Unit: Based on optimized time parameters, the system controls the vulcanization time of the tire. When the preset vulcanization time is reached, the time control unit sends a signal to stop the vulcanization process. The system ensures comprehensive process monitoring by collecting key parameters such as vulcanization temperature, pressure, time, rubber properties, mold temperature, and ambient temperature and humidity in real time. This avoids quality defects caused by deviations in a single parameter. By combining optimization goals and constraints, the system generates the optimal parameter combination, enabling dynamic adaptive adjustment of the process. This achieves precise monitoring, dynamic optimization, and intelligent execution of the tire vulcanization process, improving product quality stability, production efficiency, and resource utilization, while reducing human intervention and equipment wear and tear.

[0007] Preferably, it also includes a feedback unit and a display unit; Feedback Unit: Feeds back the actual adjustment status of the parameter adjustment module to the data analysis and processing module, so that the data analysis and processing module can further optimize the subsequent parameter adjustment strategy based on the actual adjustment effect. When one of the units in the parameter adjustment module fails to achieve the expected adjustment effect, the feedback unit will transmit the deviation information between the actual running parameters and the target parameters to the data analysis and processing module, and the data analysis and processing module will recalculate the optimization parameters. Display unit: Displays key parameters, optimization results, and equipment operating status information during the tire vulcanization process in an intuitive graphical or digital format; It allows operators to monitor the vulcanization process in real time, promptly detect and address any abnormalities.

The temperature sensors measure the temperature of various parts inside the mold and transmit the temperature data to the data analysis and processing module in the form of electrical signals. Pressure sensor: Installed in the pressurization system of the vulcanization equipment, it directly measures the temperature and pressure of the rubber compound during the vulcanization process, monitors the pressure changes during the vulcanization process in real time, and transmits the pressure data to the data analysis and processing module; Time recording unit: Records the time from the start of tire vulcanization to the current moment, providing a time basis for subsequent parameter adjustments. The time recording unit is integrated with the control system of the vulcanization equipment to ensure the accuracy of time recording.

The vibration sensor transmits the monitoring data to the data analysis unit in the form of electrical signals; Tire 3D Deformation Monitoring Unit: Using a laser scanner, the tire surface is scanned in three dimensions when the vulcanizing mold is opened and closed to obtain tire deformation data. At the same time, a strain gauge array is attached to the tire shoulder and bead to monitor the strain distribution of the rubber in real time during the vulcanization process and determine whether there is local over-vulcanization or under-vulcanization. The tire 3D deformation monitoring unit transmits the monitoring data to the data analysis unit in the form of electrical signals.

[0010] Preferably, it also includes an early warning unit; Early warning unit: Used to issue alarm information.

The feeding device is located on the side of the upper mold and is used to unload and transport the tires formed in the upper mold. Tires requiring vulcanization are placed on a conveyor belt, which then transports the unvulcanized tires to below the first clamp. A first hydraulic cylinder then moves the first clamp downwards to pick up the unvulcanized tire. After picking up the tire, the first clamp moves upwards to reset. A moving device then moves the support frame horizontally to the right.

The first clamp then moves downwards to place the unvulcanized tire on the lower mold. The support frame then moves the upper mold and the first clamp to the left to reset. At this point, the conveyor belt transports the next tire requiring vulcanization to below the first clamp, while the upper mold moves to above the lower mold. The support frame moves the upper mold and the first clamp downwards synchronously, so that the upper mold vulcanizes the tire on the lower mold, while the first clamp picks up the tire from the conveyor belt. After the upper mold has vulcanized the tire, the support frame moves the upper mold and the first clamp upwards. At this time, the vulcanized tire is inside the upper mold. Then, the support frame moves the upper mold and the first clamp to the right, so that the upper mold moves to the unloading device, and the first clamp moves above the lower mold.

After the second clamp removes the tire, the rotating end of the electric rotary table rotates, causing the electric rotary table to swing the second clamp in another direction. Then, the drive unit drives the support shaft to rotate, causing the support shaft to rotate the second clamp up and down, thereby moving the vulcanized tire below the second clamp and improving the convenience of unloading the vulcanized tire from the second clamp.

[0013] Preferably, the moving device includes a power structure, a frame, a moving platform, and a third hydraulic cylinder; The electric rotary table is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the frame; The mobile platform is slidably mounted on the frame, while the support frame is slidably mounted on the mobile platform.
