[0002] At present, the diameter of tires is generally φ454~φ710mm, and the maximum weight is 150kg. Most of the tires put into operation are transported by pallets. The pallet size is 1000mm×1000m, and only 8 tires can be transported at a time. However, the assembly line has a large demand for tires, about 480 tires a day. If they are transported by forklift, the frequency of transportation is about 60 times a day, and the transportation efficiency is low. In addition, the tires weigh 150kg, and operators are required to unload the tires and flip them 90° to keep them parallel to the vehicle tire installation surface. This operation method is labor-intensive.

[0027] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0028] like Figure 1-6 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides a tire transport device, including a component 1 2 for vertically storing a front wheel 1 and a component 2 4 for vertically storing a rear wheel 3, wherein the component 2 4 is stacked on the component 1 2, and the centers of the component 2 4 and the component 1 2 are located on the same vertical line.

[0029] In this embodiment, component 1 2 includes a support frame 1 21 for supporting the front wheel 1, a support frame 22 for supporting component 2 4, and a base plate 1 23 arranged at the lower part of the support frame 1 21. The support frame 2 22 is arranged at the top of the support frame 1 21, and the support frame 2 22 is fixedly connected to the support frame 1 21; a reinforcement member 5 is provided between the support frame 22 and the support frame 1 21.

[0030] In this embodiment, a reinforcing rib 24 is provided at the bottom of the bottom plate 23 to strengthen the load-bearing capacity of the transfer rack, and the transfer rack can bear a load of more than 1.2 tons. The bottom plate 23 is inclined at a certain angle θ to the ground, and the angle θ is 1° to 2°. The clever use of this angle can reduce the labor intensity of tire loading and unloading, and use the tire's own weight to help the tire roll toward the exit.

[0031] In this embodiment, the support frame 21 includes four columns 211 and four cross bars 212 arranged between the four columns 211. The horizontal plane formed by the four cross bars 211 is parallel to the ground. The cross bars 212 and the bottom plate 23 form a height difference of 35 to 50 mm. The cross bars 212 can form a protective barrier during the tire transportation process, solving the problem of tire slipping during transportation. Reinforcement ribs 213 are arranged between the four columns 211, and the reinforcement ribs 213 are located at the non-tire inlet and outlet.

[0032] In this embodiment, the second support frame 22 includes two rectangular frames composed of a plurality of horizontal rods 221, and a third reinforcing rib 222 is provided inside the rectangular frame. The two rectangular frames are arranged opposite to each other, and the distance between the two rectangular frames is less than the length of the second component 4.

[0033] In this embodiment, the outer dimensions of the frame formed by component one 2 and component two 4 are uniformly designed based on the outer dimensions of the front wheel 1 placement frame and the rear tire 3.

[0034] In this embodiment, the component 2 4 includes a support frame 3 41 for supporting the rear wheel 3 and a bottom plate 2 42 arranged at the lower part of the support frame 3 41. Since the component 2 4 is placed on the second layer, the bottom plate 2 42 is arranged parallel to the ground, which solves the problem of tire sliding during transportation. The height of the bottom plate 2 42 from the ground is 900 to 1000 mm. A reinforcing rib 43 is arranged below the bottom plate 2 42 to strengthen the load-bearing capacity of the transfer rack, and the transfer rack can withstand a weight load of more than 1 ton.

[0035] In this embodiment, the support frame body 3 41 includes four columns 2 411 and four cross bars 2 412 arranged between the four columns 2 411. A gear rod 413 is provided on the top of the column 2 412. The gear rod 413 is located at a non-tire inlet and outlet. The setting of the gear rod 413 can further solve the problem of tire slipping during transportation.

[0036] In this embodiment, the tires are loaded on the components 1 2 and 2 4 in sequence. After loading, the component 2 4 is placed on the component 1 2 by a forklift, and is basically aligned with the center. Finally, the tire transfer device of the present application is transferred to the corresponding workstation of the assembly line by a forklift. The specific form is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, 16 front wheels 1 and 16 rear wheels 3 can be transferred at one time, and the front wheels 1 and the rear wheels 3 can be transferred in matching sets, so the transfer efficiency is improved by 400%. In addition, there is no need to flip 90 degrees during the unloading process, and the unloading can be carried out directly by rolling along the original placement method, and then the assembly operation can be carried out, which greatly reduces the labor intensity of employees.

[0037] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but will conform to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
