[0065] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clear, the implementation mode of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0066] refer to Figures 1 to 3The embodiment of the present application provides a tire pattern processing device 1, comprising: a clamping device 2, a processing device 3 and a tire handling device 4. The clamping device 2 is used to clamp and drive the tire to rotate; the processing device 3 is used to perform pattern processing on the rotating tire; the tire handling device 4 is used to carry the tire that has completed the pattern processing and make it separate from the tire pattern processing device 1.

[0067] The tire handling device 4, the clamping device 2 and the processing device 3 will be described one by one below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0068] First, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The tire handling device 4 includes a workbench 40, a support assembly 41, a ramp 42 and a push assembly 43. The workbench 40 is arranged along a first direction ( Figure 2 Exemplarily, the workbench 40 is rectangular, and the first direction is the length direction of the workbench 40.

[0069] The above-mentioned support assembly 41 is located below the workbench 40, and the support assembly 41 is used to Figure 2 The support assembly 41 supports the workbench 40 in the height direction, so that the workbench 40 is higher than the ground, and has a set distance from the ground in the height direction.

[0070] Specifically, the support assembly 41 includes a support plate 410 and a balance plate 411. The height direction ( Figure 2 The upper and lower ends of the support plate 410 (shown in the Z direction) are respectively fixedly connected to the workbench 40 and the balance plate 411. The balance plate 411 is used to be placed on the ground, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the balance plate 411 in the height direction is greater than the cross-sectional area of ​​the support plate 410 in the height direction. That is, the support plate 410 is used to support the workbench 40 in the height direction so that it is higher than the ground, and the balance plate 411 is located between the support plate 410 and the ground to increase the contact area between the support plate 410 and the ground, thereby ensuring the reliability and stability of the support.

[0071] Exemplarily, the support plates 410 and the balance plates 411 each include two, and both are rectangular. The two support plates 410 and the two balance plates 411 are respectively located on the workbench 40 along the first direction ( Figure 2 The two ends of each support plate 410 and the balance plate 411 are arranged in the width direction (shown in the X direction) of the workbench 40.

[0072] The inclined plate 42 is arranged along the second direction ( Figure 2The inclined plate 42 is connected to the workbench 40 at one end in the second direction and connected to the ground at the other end; the angle α between the inclined plate 42 and the workbench 40 is set to be an obtuse angle. Exemplarily, the inclined plate 42 connects the ground and the workbench 40, that is, a slope is formed between the ground and the workbench 40.

[0073] In this embodiment, the angle α between the inclined plate 42 and the workbench 40 is 135°. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that in other embodiments, the angle α between the inclined plate 42 and the workbench 40 may also be 120°, 125°, 130°, 140°, etc. The larger the value of α, the gentler the slope of the slope formed by the inclined plate 42 between the workbench 40 and the ground. Therefore, in practical applications, the value of the angle α between the inclined plate 42 and the workbench 40 may be selected as needed.

[0074] like Figure 2 As shown, the pushing assembly 43 is located on the workbench 40 and moves along the first direction ( Figure 2 The first direction is perpendicular to the height direction, and the tire is close to the inclined plate 42.

Exemplarily, the pusher 430 is L-shaped and can move along the first direction to push the tire.

[0076] Exemplarily, the pusher 430 is flush with the tire in the height direction.

The tire approaches the inclined plate 42 under the thrust of the push member 430, and finally slides down along the inclined plate 42 under the thrust and the gravity of the tire itself until it slides to the ground, thereby realizing the separation of the tire from the workbench 40, avoiding the use of manual handling of the tire, saving time and effort.

[0078] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3In some possible implementations, the push assembly 43 further includes a first motor 431, a screw 432, a fixing frame 433 and a bump 434.

[0082] The first direction of the push member 430 ( Figure 3 One end of the tire 430 (shown in the X direction) is fixedly connected to the moving plate 435. Exemplarily, the moving plate 435 connects the pusher 430 with the protrusion 434, so that the driving force of the first motor 431 is transmitted to the pusher 430 through the screw 432, the protrusion 434, and the moving plate 435, so that the pusher 430 extends along the first direction to push the tire.

Exemplarily, the pusher 430 is L-shaped, and its pusher 446 extends upward in the height direction to increase the surface area of ​​the side close to the inclined plate 42 in the first direction, so that the contact area between the pusher 446 and the tire is larger, and the pusher 446 can contact the tire more stably and apply thrust to the pusher to push the tire to move to the inclined plate 42 and slide down from the inclined plate 42.

[0084] In some possible implementations, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The fixing frame 433 includes a first extension portion 436 and a second extension portion 437. The first extension portion 436 extends in a first direction ( Figure 3 The first extension portion 436 is fixedly connected to the second portion 51 of the mounting frame 5 along the first direction and at an end away from the inclined plate 42, and the second extension portion 437 is extended in the height direction, the upper end of the second extension portion 437 is connected to the first extension portion 436, and the lower end of the second extension portion 437 is connected to the workbench 40.

[0085] Exemplarily, the second portion 51 of the mounting frame 5 is vertically connected to the workbench 40 along the first direction ( Figure 3 The first extension portion 436 is fixedly connected to the second portion 51 of the mounting frame 5, thereby ensuring that the fixing frame 433 is relatively fixed on the workbench 40 to avoid tipping.

[0086] In some possible implementations, the second extension portion 437 has a Figure 3 The screw rod 432 passes through the first connecting hole 444 and is rotatably connected thereto. Exemplarily, the screw rod 432 is connected to the fixing frame 433 by passing through the second extending portion 437 .

[0087] like Figure 3 As shown, the first extension portion 436 has a first direction ( Figure 3 The long hole 438 extends in the X direction. Exemplarily, the long hole 438 is located in the middle position of the first extension portion 436 in the width direction.

[0088] A portion of the protrusion 434 is embedded in the long hole 438 so that the protrusion 434 can be moved along the first direction ( Figure 3The first extension portion 436 is movably connected to the fixing frame 433 in the X direction. Exemplarily, the long hole 438 is rectangular, the protrusion 434 is in the shape of a convex letter, the upper portion 440 of the protrusion 434 is embedded in the long hole 438, the lower portion 441 is located below the first extension portion 436, and the upper surface of the lower portion 441 is in contact with the lower surface of the first extension portion 436.

[0089] Illustratively, the first motor 431 drives the screw rod 432 to rotate, and the rotation of the screw rod 432 drives the protrusion 434 to move along the first direction in the long hole 438 of the first extension portion 436 .

[0090] It is easy to understand that the maximum moving distance of the pushing member 430 in the first direction is the length of the long hole 438 in the first direction.

[0091] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 3 As shown, along the first direction ( Figure 3 The long hole 438 includes a first end 442 and a second end 443, wherein the first end 442 is away from the inclined plate 42 and fits with the second portion 51 of the mounting frame 5, and the second end 443 is close to the inclined plate 42, and the second extension portion 437 closes the second end 443 of the long hole 438.

[0092] Exemplarily, the first end 442 of the long hole 438 is fitted with the second portion 51 of the mounting frame 5, and the protrusion 434 is moved along the first direction ( Figure 3 The projection 434 contacts the second portion 51 of the mounting bracket 5, thereby limiting the moving distance of the projection 434 and preventing the projection 434 from sliding out of the long hole 438 in the direction away from the inclined plate 42. Similarly, the second end 443 of the long hole 438 is closed by the second extension portion 437 of the mounting bracket 433, and the projection 434 moves along the first direction and toward the inclined plate 42 to the second end 443 of the long hole 438, and the projection 434 contacts the second extension portion 437, thereby limiting the moving distance of the projection 434 and preventing the projection 434 from sliding out of the long hole 438 in the direction toward the inclined plate 42.

[0093] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The tire pattern processing equipment of the embodiment of the present application further includes a mounting frame 5, the mounting frame 5 includes a first part 50 and a second part 51, the first part 50 and the workbench 40 are in the height direction ( Figure 1 The second part 51 is arranged opposite to the first part 50 and the workbench 40 in a vertical direction (as shown in the Z direction), and the second part 51 vertically connects the first part 50 and the workbench 40. Exemplarily, the mounting frame 5 is L-shaped.

[0094] In some possible implementations, along the first direction ( Figure 1The second portion 51 of the mounting frame 5 is located between the first extension portion 436 of the fixing frame 433 and the first motor 431 , and the screw rod 432 passes through the second portion 51 of the mounting frame 5 along the first direction to be connected to the first motor 431 .

[0095] Exemplarily, the first motor 431 is located outside the workbench 40 and is fixed on the second part 51 of the mounting frame 5. The driving end of the first motor 431 is connected to the screw 432, thereby ensuring the relative fixation of the position of the first motor 431 and avoiding position displacement during operation, which affects the movement of the push member 430 in the first direction.

[0096] Then, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The clamping device 2 of the tire pattern processing equipment 1 of the embodiment of the present application includes a clamping component 21, a rotating component 22 and a placing component 23. The clamping component 21 is used to clamp the tire, the rotating component 22 is used to drive the tire clamped by the clamping component 21 to rotate; the placing component 23 is used to place the tire.

[0097] Specifically, the placement assembly 23 includes a support ring plate 230 and a placement ring plate 231, along a first direction ( Figure 2 The support ring plate 230 is located between the push assembly 43 and the inclined plate 42. The support ring plate 230 is arranged along the height direction ( Figure 2 The support ring plate 230 extends in the Z direction (shown in the middle), the lower end of the support ring plate 230 is fixedly connected to the workbench 40, and the upper end of the support ring plate 230 is fixedly connected to the placement ring plate 231. Exemplarily, the support ring plate 230 and the placement ring plate 231 are both ring-shaped and coaxial. The placement ring plate 231 corresponds to the pusher 430 in the height direction.

[0098] Exemplarily, the support ring plate 230 extends in the height direction to support the placement ring plate 231, and the placement ring plate 231 includes an annular surface 232, on which the tire is placed. Before the tire is patterned, the tire can be placed on the annular surface 232 on the placement ring plate 231 by manual or other equipment to perform subsequent tire clamping, rotation and pattern processing operations. Similarly, after the tire pattern processing is completed, the tire is still placed on the placement ring plate 231, so that the pusher 430 of the push assembly 43 can be extended to push the tire on the placement ring plate 231 off the placement ring plate 231 and slide down the inclined plate 42 to the ground.

[0099] Exemplarily, the inner diameter of the placement ring plate 231 is larger than the inner diameter of the tire and smaller than the outer diameter of the tire, that is, the portion of the tire close to the inner ring located on the placement ring plate 231 does not contact the annular surface 232 of the placement ring plate 231, and faces downward toward the workbench 40 in the height direction.

[0100] In some possible implementations, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The clamping assembly 21 includes a first clamping assembly 200 and a second clamping assembly 210. The first clamping assembly 200 is connected to the first portion 50 of the mounting frame 5, and the second clamping assembly 210 is connected to the workbench 40. The first clamping assembly 200 and the second clamping assembly 210 are used to clamp the first portion 50 of the mounting frame 5 in the height direction ( Figure 2 The tire is clamped (shown in the Z direction).

[0101] In some possible implementations, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The second clamping assembly 210 includes a first cylinder 211 and a second clamping member 212 connected to each other. The first cylinder 211 is used to drive the second clamping member 212 to move in the height direction ( Figure 2 The second clamping member 212 is used to abut against the lower surface of the tire. For example, the first cylinder 211 is located below the workbench 40, the second clamping member 212 is located above the workbench 40, and the driving end of the first cylinder 211 passes through the workbench 40 to connect with the second clamping member 212.

[0102] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, in the present embodiment, a cylinder is used as a driving member to drive the second clamping member 212 to move in the height direction, but in other embodiments, other types of driving members may be used to drive the second clamping member 212 to move in the height direction, such as an electric telescopic rod.

[0103] The first clamping assembly 200 includes a first clamping member 201 , and the first clamping member 201 is used to abut against the upper surface of the tire to clamp the tire together with the second clamping member 212 .

[0104] Exemplarily, the support ring plate 230 is arranged around the second clamping member 212, the first clamping member 201 and the second clamping member 212 have the same structure, and the radial dimensions of the two are larger than the inner diameter of the tire, but smaller than the outer diameter of the tire. Then the first cylinder 211 drives the second clamping member 212 to move upward, and the second clamping member 212 will contact the lower surface of the tire located on the placement ring plate 231 during the upward movement, and at the same time support the tire to move upward in the height direction until the upper surface of the tire contacts the first clamping member 201, so that the tire can no longer move upward. At this time, the first clamping member 201 and the second clamping member 212 clamp the tire together, and the tire is in a clamped state.

[0105] Correspondingly, after the tire pattern processing is completed, the second clamping member 212 is driven by the first cylinder 211 to move the tire downward, away from the first clamping member 201, until it moves down to the placement ring plate 231. The tire contacts the placement ring plate 231 and cannot move further downward. The second clamping member 212 continues to move downward under the drive of the first cylinder 211 and separates from the tire. In this way, the tire after the pattern processing is placed on the placement ring plate 231, thereby facilitating the extension of the pushing member 430 of the pushing assembly 43, pushing the tire on the placement ring plate 231 down and making it slide down to the ground.

[0106] In some possible implementations, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first clamping member 201 includes a first turntable portion 202 and a first rubber ring plate portion 203, the first rubber ring plate portion 203 is arranged around the outer circumference of the first turntable portion 202, the first rubber ring plate portion 203 is fixedly connected to the first turntable portion 202, and the first rubber ring plate portion 203 is used to abut the upper surface of the tire; the second clamping member 212 includes a second turntable portion 213 and a second rubber ring plate portion 214, the second rubber ring plate portion 214 is arranged around the outer circumference of the second turntable portion 213, the second rubber ring plate portion 214 is fixedly connected to the second turntable portion 213, and the second rubber ring plate portion 214 is used to abut the lower surface of the tire, so that the first rubber ring plate portion 203 and the second rubber ring plate portion 214 clamp the tire together.

[0107] Exemplarily, the first rubber ring plate portion 203 is arranged along the height direction ( Figure 2 The second rubber ring plate portion 214 protrudes downward from the lower surface of the first rotating disk portion 202 along the height direction ( Figure 2 The first rubber ring plate portion 203 and the second rubber ring plate portion 214 are protruded upward from the upper surface of the second turntable portion 213, and the first rubber ring plate portion 203 and the second rubber ring plate portion 214 directly contact the tire, which can achieve an anti-slip effect, that is, avoid the tire position displacement. On the other hand, the first rubber ring plate portion 203 and the second rubber ring plate portion 214 are made of rubber material, which clamps the tire to avoid damage to the tire.

[0108] In some possible implementations, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first clamping assembly 200 includes an embedding rod 204, which is fixedly connected to the center of the lower surface of the first turntable portion 202; the second clamping assembly 210 includes a cylinder 215, which is fixedly connected to the center of the upper surface of the second turntable portion 213, and the cylinder 215 is used to move the cylinder 215 in the height direction ( Figure 2The cylinder 215 is inserted into the center of the tire (shown in the Z direction) and abuts against the inner wall of the tire; the cylinder 215 includes an inner cavity 216, and the embedding rod 204 is used to be inserted into the inner cavity 216 of the cylinder 215 along the height direction. Exemplarily, the cylinder 215 extends into the center of the tire, the outer wall of the cylinder 215 abuts against the inner wall of the tire, and the embedding rod 204 is inserted into the inner cavity 216 of the cylinder 215, thereby improving the stability of the tire clamping and preventing the tire from shifting during processing.

[0109] In some possible implementations, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The rotating assembly 22 includes a second motor 220 and a rotating rod 221. The second motor 220 is disposed on the first portion 50 of the mounting frame 5. The rotating rod 221 is arranged along the height direction ( Figure 2 The upper end of the rotating rod 221 passes through the first part 50 and is connected to the second motor 220, and the lower end of the rotating rod 221 is fixedly connected to the first turntable portion 202 of the first clamping member 201; the second turntable portion 213 of the second clamping member 212 is connected to the first cylinder 211 in a rotatable manner around the height direction. Specifically, the piston rod (not shown in the figure) of the first cylinder 211 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the first turntable portion 213, so that the first turntable portion 213 can rotate relative to the piston rod of the first cylinder 211.

[0110] The second motor 220 is used to drive the rotating rod 221 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating rod 221 is used to drive the tire clamped by the first clamp 201 and the second clamp 212 to rotate. Exemplarily, the second motor 220 drives the rotating rod 221 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating rod 221 drives the first clamp 201 to rotate. Under the action of friction, the first clamp 201, the tire and the second clamp 212 rotate synchronously.

[0111] Finally, reference Figure 2 The processing device 3 of the tire pattern processing equipment 1 of the embodiment of the present application includes a processing knife 30, a second cylinder 31, a connecting frame 32, an electric push rod 33 and a moving block 34. Among them, the second cylinder 31 is connected to the first part 50 of the mounting frame 5, and the second cylinder 31 includes an output end, which passes through the first part 50 in the height direction and extends downward.

[0112] The connecting frame 32 is connected to the output end of the second cylinder 31 , and the second cylinder 31 is used to drive the connecting frame 32 to move in the height direction.

[0113] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, in the present embodiment, a cylinder is used as a driving member to drive the connecting frame 32 to move in the height direction, but in other embodiments, other types of driving members may also be used to drive the connecting frame 32 to move in the height direction, such as an electric telescopic rod.

[0114] The connecting frame 32 includes a receiving chamber 320, the electric push rod 33 is located in the receiving chamber 320, the electric push rod 33 includes an output end, the output end of the electric push rod 33 is connected to the moving block 34, and the electric push rod 33 is used to drive the moving block 34 to move along the first direction ( Figure 2 The moving block 34 is fixedly connected to the processing knife 30.

[0115] Exemplarily, the second cylinder 31 is used to drive the connecting frame 32 to move in the height direction ( Figure 2 The second cylinder 31 drives the processing knife 30 to move in the height direction, so that the processing knife 30 matches the height of the rotating tire. Similarly, the electric push rod 33 drives the processing knife 30 to move in the first direction, so that the processing knife 30 approaches the rotating tire and contacts it, thereby processing the pattern on the tire surface.

[0116] In some possible implementations, the processing device 3 further includes a guide plate 35, which is fixedly connected to the first portion 50 of the mounting frame 5 and is arranged along the first direction ( Figure 2 The guide plate 35 is spaced apart from the second cylinder 31; the connecting frame 32 is arranged along the height direction ( Figure 2 The guide plate 35 is movably connected to the guide plate 35 (shown in the Z direction). For example, the guide plate 35 is L-shaped. The guide plate 35 provides guidance for the mounting frame 5 moving in the height direction on the one hand, and improves the stability of the mounting frame 5 on the other hand, to prevent the second cylinder 31 from shaking and tipping when the mounting frame 5 is driven up and down.

[0117] For example, the tire pattern processing process of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: first, the tire is placed on the placement ring plate 231 by manual or other external equipment, and then the first cylinder 211 is started, and the first cylinder 211 drives the second clamping member 212 to move upward. During the upward movement of the second clamping member 212, it will contact the lower surface of the tire located on the placement ring plate 231, and the cylinder 215 extends into the center of the tire. The second clamping member 212 supports the tire in the height direction ( Figure 2 The tire is moved upward (as shown in the Z direction) and gradually approaches the first clamping assembly 200, and the embedding rod 204 is embedded downward in the inner cavity 216 of the cylinder 215 along the height direction until the upper surface of the tire contacts the first clamping member 201, so that the tire can no longer move upward. At this time, the first clamping member 201 and the second clamping member 212 clamp the tire together, and the tire is in a clamped state.

[0118] Then, the second motor 220 is started, and the second motor 220 drives the rotating rod 221 to rotate, and the first clamping member 201 rotates synchronously, and the tire clamped by the first clamping member 201 and the second clamping member 212 also rotates synchronously.

[0119] Next, the second cylinder 31 is started, and the output end of the second cylinder 31 extends downward, driving the connecting frame 32 to move up and down, so that the processing knife 30 located at one end of the connecting frame 32 is flush with the rotating tire in the height direction. Then the electric push rod 33 is started, and the electric push rod 33 drives the processing knife 30 to move along the first direction ( Figure 2 The wheel moves toward the tire (as shown in the X direction) and eventually contacts the tire, thereby leaving a pattern on the rotating tire surface.

[0120] Then, after the pattern processing of the tire is completed, the electric push rod 33 is driven to take the processing knife 30 away from the tire, and the second motor 220 is turned off to stop the rotation of the tire. The second clamping member 212 starts to move downward under the drive of the first cylinder 211, and the tire supported by the second clamping member 212 also moves downward and gradually separates from the first clamping member 201. The embedded rod 204 is also pulled out from the inner cavity 216 of the cylinder 215. The second clamping member 212 drives the tire to continue to move downward until the tire contacts the placement ring plate 231. The tire can no longer move downward, and the second clamping member 212 continues to move downward under the drive of the first cylinder 211 and returns to the initial position.

[0121] Finally, start the first motor 431, and the first motor 431 drives the screw 432 to rotate. The rotation of the screw 432 drives the protrusion 434 to move along the first direction and toward the placement ring plate 231, and the pushing member 430 connected to the protrusion 434 also moves accordingly to contact the tire on the placement ring plate 231 and continue to apply thrust to make the tire fall from the placement ring plate 231 and slide down the inclined plate 42 to the ground, thereby achieving the purpose of removing the tire that has completed the pattern processing.
