[0037] Reference Figure 1 The tire cleaning mechanism provided in the present embodiment includes a transmission unit 1 for transmitting rotation of a tire, a first cleaning unit 2 for cleaning the tire, and a second cleaning unit 3 for wiping the cleaned tire. It should be noted that the transmission unit 1, the first cleaning unit 2 and the second cleaning unit 3 are arranged in sequence around the rotation direction of the tire, the transmission unit 1 continuously operates during the tire cleaning process, the first cleaning unit 2 and the second cleaning unit 3 operate in sequence during the tire cleaning process, the first cleaning unit 2 completes the cleaning of the tire first, and then the second cleaning unit 3 completes the wiping work after the tire is cleaned.

[0038] In some embodiments, the transmission unit 1 includes a transmission roller, a first driving cylinder for driving the transmission roller to rotate, and a second driving cylinder for driving the transmission roller and the first driving cylinder to extend or retract. When the tire to be cleaned reaches the cleaning station, the second driving cylinder drives the transmission roller and the first driving cylinder to extend and abut against the tire to be cleaned, and the first driving cylinder drives the transmission roller to rotate, so that the tire to be cleaned also rotates under the transmission action of the transmission roller.

[0039] The first cleaning unit 2 comprises a first roller assembly 21 and a cleaning agent spraying assembly 22 located on one side of the first roller assembly 21 for spraying cleaning agent to the first roller assembly 21. The cleaning agent infiltrates the first roller assembly 21, so that the first roller assembly 21 can uniformly apply the cleaning agent to the surface of the tire, thereby achieving comprehensive cleaning of the tire, high cleaning degree and good cleaning effect.

[0040] The second cleaning unit 3 comprises a second roller assembly 31 located above the first roller assembly 21. By arranging the second roller assembly 31 above the first roller assembly 21, the second roller assembly 31 can be prevented from being splashed by the cleaning agent sprayed by the cleaning agent spraying assembly 22, the dryness of the second roller assembly 31 can be maintained, the wiping effect after cleaning the tire can be ensured, and the cleaning quality can be improved.

[0041] In the embodiment, the cleaning agent sprayed by the cleaning agent spraying assembly 22 is dimethicone, and the first roller assembly 21 and the second roller assembly 31 both adopt wool wheels. Specifically, the first roller assembly 21 comprises a wool wheel and a third driving cylinder for driving the wool wheel to rotate, and the structure of the second roller assembly 31 is the same as that of the first roller assembly 21. Since the wool wheel has high flexibility, the use of the wool wheel for cleaning and wiping the tire has higher adhesion and better cleaning effect, and is not easy to scratch the tire, which can ensure product quality and is more conducive to subsequent sales.

[0042] The tire cleaning mechanism of the embodiment can keep the surface of the tire clean and dry by arranging the second cleaning unit to wipe the cleaned tire, thereby improving the cleaning operation quality and cleaning effect, and being more conducive to subsequent sales of the product. At the same time, the subsequent drying operation process is omitted, which is not only conducive to improving production efficiency, but also conducive to reducing production cost and improving production benefit.

[0047] In some embodiments, the first cleaning unit 2 further comprises a cleaning waste liquid drainage groove 24 and a cleaning waste liquid storage groove 25, the cleaning waste liquid drainage groove 24 is arranged below the first roller assembly 21, and the cleaning waste liquid storage groove 25 is arranged below the cleaning waste liquid drainage groove 24. Part of the cleaning agent sprayed by the cleaning agent spraying assembly 22 is immersed in the first roller assembly 21, and the other part flows downward under the action of gravity to become cleaning waste liquid. At the same time, the first roller assembly 21 also generates cleaning waste liquid in the process of cleaning the tire. The cleaning waste liquid generated in the process of cleaning the tire is drained into the cleaning waste liquid storage groove 25 through the cleaning waste liquid drainage groove 24, so as to prevent the cleaning waste liquid from flowing out of the tire cleaning mechanism and polluting the working environment.

[0048] The tire cleaning mechanism of the embodiment can prevent the mutual interference between the first roller assembly and the second roller assembly during the operation process by setting the first driving assembly and the second driving assembly, and ensure the orderliness of the cleaning operation.
