[0002] After molding, the tire blank is lifted onto the conveyor line by a hoist. The tire blank arrives at the conveyor line in a vertical, upright position, and needs to be conveyed on the conveyor line with the barcode facing upwards (horizontally lying flat) so that the barcode scanner can automatically scan and read the tire blank information. When manually turning the tire blank, the operation process is cumbersome, labor-intensive, and inefficient. CN208326566 U discloses a tire turning device, in which a through-beam photoelectric switch is used to detect whether there is a tire on the tire conveyor, a first mechanical valve is used to detect whether the tire turning frame is horizontal, a first proximity switch is used to determine whether the tire has entered the tire turning frame, and a second mechanical valve is used to detect whether the tire turning frame is perpendicular to the ground after a 90-degree turn. Although this tire turning device can replace manual operation and realize automated tire turning, reducing labor intensity, it requires a separate turning motor as a power component to provide power to the turning components, resulting in a complex overall structure and wasted power resources. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of existing technologies, a tire-rolling device is proposed to solve the technical problems of existing technologies requiring additional power components, having complex structures, and wasting power resources.

[0017] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Based on the embodiments in this application, other similar embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should all fall within the scope of protection of this application. Furthermore, directional terms mentioned in the following embodiments, such as "up," "down," "left," and "right," are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings; therefore, the directional terms used are for illustrative purposes and not for limiting the invention.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0019] According to an embodiment of this utility model, a tire flipping device is provided. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 The system includes a conveyor line, a retreading roller 1, and a tire rolling track 2. The conveyor line has forward and reverse rotation functions. The retreading roller 1 is mounted above the conveyor line via a retreading roller bracket 3. The tire rolling track 2 is inclinedly arranged on the side of the conveyor line, and the bottom of the tire rolling track 2 is connected to the conveyor line. A tire stop roller 6 corresponding to the tire rolling track 2 is provided on the other side of the conveyor line.

[0020] It should be noted that the tire blank rolls onto the conveyor line via the tire roller chute 2 and stops rolling under the obstruction of the tire stop roller 6. At this time, the barcode on the tire blank faces the tumbling roller 1. If the tire blank automatically flips away from the tumbling roller 1 due to rolling or vibration, and the barcode faces upwards after flipping, it can be directly conveyed to the next process. If the tire blank on the conveyor line is in a vertical upright position, the tumbling roller 1 provides some support to prevent the tire blank from flipping towards the tumbling roller 1. The reverse rotation of the conveyor line, coupled with the obstruction of the upper part of the tire blank by the tumbling roller 1, causes the tire blank to rotate 90°, tilt and flip with the barcode facing upwards. The conveyor line then switches to forward rotation, conveying the flipped tire blank to the next process. No additional power unit is required to provide power, making full use of the power resources in the conveyor line. The structure is compact and helps to reduce manufacturing costs.

[0021] In the tire rollover device of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The retreading roller 1 is rotatably connected to the retreading roller bracket 3. The retreading roller 1 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveyor line. A gap is left between the retreading roller 1 and the conveyor line for the tire blank to pass through in a horizontally lying position.

[0022] It should be noted that the tire blank on the conveyor line is in a vertical upright position. When the conveyor line reverses, the conveyor line drives the lower half of the tire blank to move, and the folding roller 1 blocks the upper half of the tire blank, causing the tire blank to directionally flip over. After flipping over, the tire blank passes through the gap in a horizontally lying position. The vertical distance between the folding roller 1 and the conveyor line is adjustable, and the height of the folding roller 1 can be adjusted according to the size of the tire blank to suit different specifications of tire blanks. The folding roller 1 rotates as the tire blank falls over without damaging the tire blank.

[0023] In the tire rollover device of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The side of the roller slide 2 is provided with a roller slide support 4 extending in a vertical direction.

[0025] In the tire rollover device of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The tire stop roller 6 is rotatably mounted on the tire stop roller bracket 7, and several tire stop rollers 6 are arranged along the conveying direction parallel to the conveying line.

[0026] It should be noted that the tire stop roller 6 is set vertically and located on the opposite side of the tire roller slide 2, which blocks the tire blank that rolls onto the conveyor line via the tire roller slide 2.

[0027] In the tire rollover device of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 One end of the conveyor line is provided with a fall arrestor 8. The fall arrestor 8 and the tumbling roller 1 are located on the same side of the tire rolling track 2, and the tumbling roller 1 is located on the side of the tire rolling track 2.

[0028] It should be noted that the tumbling roller 1 is located on the side of the tumbling slide 2, and plays a guiding and blocking role for the tire blank that rolls onto the conveyor line via the tumbling slide 2; after the tire blank is overturned, it continues to move with the conveyor line, and the anti-fall baffle 8 is set along the conveying direction perpendicular to the conveyor line, and plays a blocking role for the overturned tire blank.

[0029] In the tire rollover device of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 Photoelectric switches are provided at both the anti-fall baffle 8 and the tire-stopping roller 6, and reflectors corresponding to the positions of the photoelectric switches are provided on the conveyor line.

[0030] Specifically, a first photoelectric switch 9 is provided at the anti-fall baffle 8, and a first reflector 10 corresponding to the position of the first photoelectric switch 9 is provided on the conveyor line to detect the position of the overturned tire blank; a second photoelectric switch 11 is provided at each of the tire stop rollers 6, and a second reflector 12 corresponding to the position of the second photoelectric switch 11 is provided on the conveyor line to detect whether a tire blank rolls onto the conveyor line via the tire roller slide 2.

[0031] In the tire rollover device of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The conveyor line includes a frame 13, on which a drive shaft, a driven shaft, and a conveyor belt 14 are provided for transmission connection. An opening slot 15 is provided on the frame 13. The drive shaft and the driven shaft are both disposed in the opening slot 15 through bearings 16, and the bearings 16 are connected to the frame 13.

[0032] It should be noted that the drive shaft and driven shaft pass through the conveyor belt 14 and are installed in place through the opening slot 15. The bearing 16 is installed on the frame 13 by bearing fixing screws and bearing fixing nuts. The drive shaft and driven shaft can be repaired or replaced without disassembling the frame 13. The conveyor belt support plate passes through the conveyor belt 14 and is fixed on both sides of the frame 13 to support the upper surface of the conveyor belt and prevent dents.

[0033] In the tire rollover device of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The frame 13 is connected to the support legs 17 and the support feet 18, and an adjusting bolt 19 and an adjusting nut are provided between the support legs 17 and the support feet 18.
