Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of a molding machine head for producing tires, in particular to a radially telescopic tire molding drum machine head. Background Art
[0002] The tire building drum is a forming machine that is barrel-shaped and expandable. It is mainly used to support the inside of the tire during the tire forming process, so that the carcass cord, belt layer and tread are attached to the building drum, and finally the finished tire embryo is obtained. The building drum is a key component in the tire building equipment, and its structure varies with the different tire building processes.
[0003] At present, the design of tire building drum is divided into two types: rotary type and expansion type. Among them, the rotary tire building drum is usually equipped with a cylinder, the cylinder rod is concentric with the main shaft sleeve and moves synchronously, and the tail flange of the machine head is fixed to the main shaft sleeve by screws. When the motor drives the sleeve to operate through the belt, the drum shell of the building drum realizes the expansion and contraction of the machine head driven by the connecting rod. The structure of the other type of expansion and contraction semi-steel secondary method machine head is divided into two types: connecting rod type and guide rail type. Both of these machine heads use T-pins to connect the pull rod and the slide seat or wedge body to move synchronously to achieve radial expansion and contraction of the machine head.
[0004] However, both of the above die designs require a certain amount of space to be reserved in the horizontal direction to facilitate the transmission mechanism to achieve the expansion and contraction of the die. As a result, the tire building drum die cannot be designed to produce small-sized (die width ≤ 200mm), which restricts the development of some small-sized die. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the above problems, the utility model proposes a radially telescopic tire building drum head, which is characterized by comprising:
[0006] A main shaft assembly, a radial expansion device and a drum-tile assembly. A radial expansion device is fixed around the outside of the main shaft assembly, which can drive the radial expansion device to rotate along the axial direction of the main shaft assembly to form an annular structure for positioning the tire. The radial expansion device includes a plurality of expansion mechanisms that can expand and contract radially along the main shaft assembly. The drum-tile assembly includes a plurality of large tiles and small tiles, which are sequentially connected to the outside of the radial expansion device. As the radial expansion device moves along the radial direction of the main shaft assembly, the expansion and contraction of the forming drum is completed.
[0007] In some specific embodiments, there are 8 radial expansion devices, which are arranged around the circumference of the main shaft assembly; there are 4 large tiles and 4 small tiles, which are detachably connected to the outside of the expansion mechanism in sequence. The detachable tiles can be replaced with tiles of suitable size at any time according to the specifications of the tires produced, thereby improving the applicability of the product.
[0008] In some specific embodiments, the telescopic mechanism includes a transmission part, a telescopic part and a limiting part.
[0009] In some specific embodiments, the transmission part includes a cylinder, a cylinder base, a central air chamber and a silencer tee; the central air chamber is arranged inside the main shaft assembly; the silencer tee is fixed at the tail of the central air chamber for exhausting gas; a cylinder base is arranged at the bottom of the cylinder; the cylinder base is fixed to the outside of the main shaft assembly and is provided with an air hole so that the gas in the central air chamber can be discharged into the cylinder.
[0010] In some specific embodiments, the telescopic portion includes a piston rod; the piston rod is disposed inside the cylinder and is pushed out from the top of the cylinder as the gas in the cylinder enters.
[0011] In some specific embodiments, the limiting portion includes a spring assembly for retracting the extruded piston rod.
[0012] In some specific embodiments, the main shaft of the machine head is sealed, and only air holes are opened at the base of each cylinder. Compressed gas can enter the cylinder through the cylinder base, pushing the piston rod of the cylinder to extend to complete the expansion action.
[0013] In some of the specific embodiments, a plurality of large pads and small pads are detachably connected to the radial expansion and contraction device via a transmission rod, and are driven by a piston rod to move in the radial direction of the main shaft assembly.
[0014] In some specific embodiments, when the system receives an expansion command, the cylinder is filled with gas, squeezing the piston rod to push it out, driving the large and small pads to be pushed out along the radial direction of the main shaft assembly. The large and small pads come into contact with each other to form a circular shape, completing the expansion action.
[0015] In some specific embodiments, when the system receives a drum retraction command, the gas in the main shaft assembly is discharged through the silencer tee at the tail of the central air chamber. At this time, under the tension of the spring assembly, the piston rod and the drum shoe assembly are driven to retract, completing the drum retraction action.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0017] The utility model discloses a radial telescopic tire building drum machine head, which adopts a radial telescopic mechanism to control the tiles to complete the expansion and contraction process of the building drum. The expansion and contraction of the machine head is completed by the expansion and contraction of the piston, and the expansion and contraction action is completed only by the radial action of the cylinder, which saves the horizontal distance of the traditional machine head, so the width of the core can be greatly reduced.
[0018] The head of the utility model can expand and contract reliably, and the width of the core can be greatly narrowed. Even if the head width is less than 200mm, the specification of the tile and the core can still maintain a large difference, and no modification of the capsule, fixture or equipment is required, which saves the cost of transformation and improves the molding quality and efficiency. The head does not need to add or extend any molding steps, overcomes the problem of interference between the fixture and the core in the narrow head molding, and improves the molding efficiency and product quality.

[0031] A main shaft assembly, a radial expansion device and a drum-tile assembly.
