Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tire production devices, in particular to tire vulcanization equipment. Background Art
[0002] At present, the internal temperature of tire vulcanization is usually provided by combining saturated steam and nitrogen; specifically, saturated steam is first introduced into the vulcanization capsule to provide the heat required for vulcanization, and the amount of heat is adjusted by controlling the time of steam introduction; and high-pressure nitrogen is then introduced into the vulcanization capsule to provide the pressure required for vulcanization. Since steam will condense when it encounters cold, the condensed water will accumulate under the vulcanization capsule, causing a large temperature difference between the upper and lower vulcanization capsules, resulting in poor dynamic balance and uniformity of the tire; in addition, high-temperature steam consumes a lot of energy during preparation, and a large amount of heat will be lost when it is transported along complex and lengthy thermal pipelines. The recycling rate of the water-steam mixture after vulcanization is low, and a large amount of heat is lost in vain, resulting in a huge waste of energy.
[0003] Some tire manufacturers have begun to use electric heating instead of steam heating. Specifically, the electric heating module (usually composed of several heating tubes) is installed inside the curing bladder. Several heating tubes are connected to two phases of the three-phase power supply respectively, and AC is used to achieve resistance heating. If the heating tubes are not arranged properly, load imbalance is likely to occur. When multiple tire vulcanizers are running at the same time, the load imbalance will have a great impact on the power grid of the tire vulcanization workshop.
[0004] Therefore, designing a tire vulcanization equipment with reasonable heating tube arrangement and balanced load on any two phases is a problem that needs to be solved urgently at this stage. Summary of the invention

[0010] The electric heating elements of the three electric heating modules are respectively coupled to a symmetrical three-phase power supply to form a symmetrical three-phase circuit.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution, the vulcanization mold includes an upper mold and a lower mold, and the upper mold and the lower mold can be opened and closed; when the upper mold and the lower mold are closed, the vulcanization cavity is formed inside the vulcanization mold.
[0012] As a preferred technical solution, the vulcanization bladder can be placed in the vulcanization cavity; when the vulcanization bladder is placed in the vulcanization cavity, the three electric heating modules are all located inside the vulcanization bladder.

[0017] And / or, the three electric heating modules are evenly distributed along the axial direction of the central rod.
[0018] As a preferred technical solution, the electric heating element is configured as a heating tube.
[0019] As a preferred technical solution, the shape of the electric heating element is set to be disc-shaped, S-shaped or straight-line.
[0020] As a preferred technical solution, the length, cross-sectional area and resistivity of the electric heating elements are the same.
