Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tire production, and in particular relates to a tire embryo storage device. Background Art
[0002] In the tire production process, after various semi-finished products are formed into embryos through the molding process, they are first transported to the embryo turnover warehouse for storage, and then transported to the vulcanizing machine for vulcanization. In order to prevent the embryos from being deformed in the turnover warehouse, the embryos need to be transferred from the load-bearing device to the embryo tray for placement, and then according to the embryo demand plan of the vulcanizing machine, the stored embryos are manually transferred from the tray to the load-bearing device and transported to different vulcanizing machines. Due to the wide variety of tires currently available, it is also common for the same machine to produce multiple tires of different specifications at the same time. The storage turnover is large, and the embryos placed vertically (such as OTR engineering bias tire embryos) will deform due to gravity. In a high temperature environment, especially in summer, the embryos may even stick together, which will lead to poor or waste products during the vulcanization process. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the various deficiencies in the prior art, a tire blank storage device is proposed to solve the technical problems in the prior art that the vertical tire blanks are deformed due to gravity, the tire blanks adhere in a high temperature environment, and then lead to poor or defective products in the vulcanization process.
[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0005] A tire blank storage device, comprising:
[0006] A support frame, which is provided with an opening for hoisting the tire blank;
[0007] A flexible bearing member, an end of which is rotatably connected to the support frame via a swing assembly, and an adjustment assembly is provided on the swing assembly;
[0008] In the no-load state, the middle part of the flexible carrier is relaxed, and its end is expanded under the action of the adjustment component; when the embryo is placed on the flexible carrier, the middle part of the flexible carrier is tightened, and its end is tightened to fit the embryo under the action of the swing component.
[0009] The technical solution is further configured as follows: the support frame includes a plurality of support rods, and the plurality of support rods are staggered horizontally and vertically to form a frame structure.
[0010] This technical solution is further configured such that the swing assembly includes a swing shaft and a connecting rod. The swing shaft is arranged along the width direction of the flexible carrier, and the swing shaft is fixedly connected to the support frame. The first end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the swing shaft, and the second end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the end of the flexible carrier.
[0011] This technical solution is further configured such that the connecting rod is perpendicular to the swing shaft. A connecting sleeve is provided at the first end of the connecting rod, and the connecting sleeve is sleeved around the periphery of the swing shaft.
[0012] This technical solution is further configured such that the end of the flexible carrier is arranged between the second end of the connecting rod and a pressing plate and is fixed by a fastener.
[0013] This technical solution is further configured such that the adjusting assembly includes a compression spring, a limiting block, and an adjusting member. The limiting block is fixedly connected to the swing shaft. The adjusting member is threadedly connected to the connecting rod. The compression spring is sleeved around the periphery of the adjusting member, and the end of the compression spring abuts against the limiting block.
[0014] In the no-load state, under the elastic force of the compression spring, the end of the adjusting member is separated from the limiting block, causing the end of the flexible carrier to be in an expanded state. When the tire blank is placed on the flexible carrier, the swing assembly and the end of the flexible carrier rotate synchronously until the end of the adjusting member abuts against the limiting block, causing the end of the flexible carrier to be in a tightened state.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0018] By providing a flexible carrier for carrying the tire blank, it is possible to prevent the tire blank from sticking in a high-temperature environment. When the flexible carrier is in the no-load state, the end of the flexible carrier is in an expanded state under the action of the adjusting assembly, which is convenient for placing the tire blank. When the tire blank is placed on the flexible carrier, the end of the flexible carrier fits with the embryo and is in a tightened state under the action of the swing assembly.

[0030] It should be noted that by setting the flexible carrier 2 to carry the tire embryo 9, the adhesion phenomenon of the tire embryo 9 in a high-temperature environment can be prevented; when the flexible carrier 2 is in an unloaded state, the end of the flexible carrier 2 is in an expanded state under the action of the adjusting component, which is convenient for placing the tire embryo 9; when the tire embryo 9 is placed on the flexible carrier, the end of the flexible carrier 2 fits with the embryo 9 and is in a tightened state under the action of the swinging component. At this time, the tire embryo 9 is stressed at multiple points to ensure that the tire embryo forms a circular state, preventing the tire embryo 9 from deforming under its own gravity and ensuring the tire quality; by setting the adjusting component, the flexible carrier 2 can automatically adapt to the outer diameter size of the tire embryo to tightly hold the tire embryo 9, which has universality.
[0031] In the tire embryo storage device of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the support frame 1 includes a plurality of support rods, and the plurality of support rods are horizontally and vertically staggered to form a frame structure.
[0032] It should be noted that the support rods are made of steel support rods, and the horizontally and vertically staggered steel support rods are welded to form a frame structure to support the flexible carrier 2, the swinging component and the adjusting component.
[0033] In the tire embryo storage device of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the swinging component includes a swinging shaft 3 and a connecting rod 4.

The first end of the connecting rod 4 is rotatably connected to the swinging shaft 3, and the second end of the connecting rod 4 is fixedly connected to the end of the flexible carrier 2.
[0034] It should be noted that the swinging shaft 3 is installed on the support frame 1, and the connecting rod 4 can swing around the swinging shaft 3. Since the connecting rod 4 is connected to the end of the flexible carrier 2, the connecting rod 4 can drive the end of the flexible carrier 2 to swing synchronously.
[0035] In the tire embryo storage device of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the connecting rod 4 is arranged perpendicular to the swinging shaft 3, and a connecting sleeve is arranged at the first end of the connecting rod 4, and the connecting sleeve is sleeved on the periphery of the swinging shaft 3.
[0036] It should be noted that the connecting rod 4 is perpendicular to the swinging shaft 3. At the same time, the connecting rod 4 is rotatably connected to the swinging shaft 3 through the connecting sleeve, realizing the synchronous swinging of the connecting rod 4 and the end of the flexible carrier 2 around the swinging shaft 3.
