DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] In order to more clearly illustrate the embodiments of the utility model, the specific implementation methods of the utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the accompanying drawings described below are only some embodiments of the utility model. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings and other implementation methods can be obtained based on these drawings without creative work.

[0027] In the description of the embodiments of the present invention, the terms "upper", "lower", "inner", "outer" and the like are based on the directions or positions shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation of the present invention. In addition, the terms "first", "second" and the like are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present application, a tire detection and positioning mechanism is provided, including a base 1, a clamping assembly 2, a rotating assembly 3 and a lifting assembly 4, the clamping assembly 2 is slidably fitted on the base 1, and the two clamping assemblies 2 are respectively abutted against the two sides of the tire 5 to limit the position of the tire 5; the rotating assembly 3 is installed on the base 1, and the rotating assembly 3 cooperates with the clamping assembly 2 to drive the tire 5 to rotate; the lifting assembly 4 is arranged on the base 1, and the lifting assembly 4 is used to lift the tire 5 upward to disengage the tire 5 from the rotating assembly 2.

[0029] Specifically, there are two clamping assemblies 2, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the base 1. Each clamping assembly 2 includes a movable frame 21, a clamping arm 22 and a clamping wheel 23. The movable frame 21 is connected to the clamping arm 22. The clamping arm 22 is provided with a clamping wheel 23. The clamping wheel 23 rests against the outer wall of the tire 5. The clamping wheels on the two movable frames rest against the outer wall of the tire at the same time to achieve the clamping positioning of the tire.

[0030] Furthermore, a slide rail 11 and a slider 12 are provided on the base 1, and the slider 12 is slidably matched with the slide rail 11. The two moving frames 21 are respectively connected to the two sliders 12, and the two sliders 12 slide along the two slide rails 11 respectively, so as to link the two moving frames 21 to move in the horizontal direction, thereby controlling the clamping wheel 23 to abut against the outer wall of the tire 5. Since the two moving frames 21 can be controlled separately, the clamping wheels 23 on both sides of the tire can be adjusted separately and abut against the outer wall of the tire.

[0031] Furthermore, the clamping arm 22 is provided with a plurality of clamping wheels 23, which are arranged in sequence and kept in the same plane, and the clamping wheels 23 roll with the outer wall of the tire 5. Since the diameters and widths of the tires to be inspected conveyed on the tire processing line vary, the plurality of clamping wheels 23 provided on the clamping arm 22 can meet the requirements of clamping and positioning tires of different diameters and widths, thus broadening the applicable scenarios.

[0032] Furthermore, multiple clamping wheels 23 are respectively in contact with the outer wall of the tire 5, and the multiple clamping wheels 23 remain in a coplanar state. The clamping wheels can be configured as universal wheels. Through the rolling cooperation between the universal wheels on the two clamping arms and the outer wall of the tire, the friction between the universal wheels and the tire can be reduced, ensuring the stability of the clamped and positioned tire and avoiding lateral deviation or shaking of the tire.

[0033] In some specific embodiments, the clamping assembly 2 further includes a first motor 25 and a synchronous belt 26. The first motor 25 is connected to the synchronous belt 26. The synchronous belt 26 is connected to two guide blocks 27. The two guide blocks 27 are respectively arranged on both sides of the synchronous belt 26. The first motor 25 drives the synchronous belt 26 to move, so as to link the two guide blocks 27 to move toward the middle or to move away from both sides.

[0034] Specifically, the base 1 is provided with a guide groove 14, and the two guide blocks 27 are respectively connected to the sliders 12 and move along the corresponding guide grooves 14. The two guide blocks 27 are respectively connected to the two sides of the synchronous belt 26. When the first motor 25 drives the synchronous belt 26 to move, the two guide blocks 27 can be linked to move toward the middle or move away from the two sides synchronously, thereby ensuring that the clamping wheels 23 on the two moving frames 21 can clamp and position the outer wall of the tire 5 synchronously.

[0035] In some specific embodiments, a plurality of elastic members 24 are provided between the movable frame 21 and the clamping arm 22. The elastic members 24 can ensure that the clamping wheel 23 on the clamping arm 22 is in flexible contact with the outer wall of the tire 5. On the one hand, the elastic members 24 can adjust the clamping force when the clamping wheel 23 abuts against the tire when the clamping arm 22 moves laterally, thereby ensuring the reliability of the clamped and positioned tire. On the other hand, the elastic members 24 can ensure that the two clamping assemblies are suitable for clamping and positioning tires of different widths, thereby improving applicability.

[0036] In some specific embodiments, a bracket 13 is provided on the base 1, and a rotating component 3 is installed on the bracket 13. The rotating component 3 includes a rotating motor 31 and an arc roller 32. The rotating motor 31 is transmission-connected to the arc roller 32, and the arc roller 32 rolls with the tire 5.

[0037] In some specific embodiments, the jacking assembly 4 is installed in the middle of the base 1 and is located between the two arc-shaped rollers 32. The jacking assembly is used to lift the tire upward to separate the tire from the arc-shaped rollers.

[0038] Specifically, the lifting assembly 4 includes a lifting cylinder 41 and a lifting plate 42, and the lifting cylinder 41 is transmission-connected to the lifting plate 42. When the tire inspection is completed, the tire 5 is lifted upward by the lifting plate 42, so that the tire 5 is separated from the arc roller 32, so that the tire enters the next process.

[0039] The output end of the lifting cylinder 41 is connected to the lifting plate 42, and the use cost of the cylinder is low and it is easy to replace. The lifting cylinder 41 can also be replaced by a motor, and the output shaft of the motor is connected to the lifting plate, and a higher control accuracy can be met through the motor.

[0040] A tire detection and positioning mechanism provided in this embodiment can synchronously clamp and position the tire through two clamping assemblies, thereby improving the smoothness of tire transportation and preventing the tire from jumping or tilting sideways on the processing line. By accurately positioning the tire, the tire is firmly fixed in the detection position, avoiding position offset errors and improving the detection accuracy during tire detection.

[0041] The above description is only a detailed description of the preferred embodiments and principles of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, according to the ideas provided by the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods, and these changes should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
