[0035] For the convenience of those skilled in the art, the present application will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings.

[0036] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A tire mold includes a mold base 100 and a snow stud. The mold base 100 has a connecting hole 101 formed in a forming surface 102 thereof, and the snow stud is fixed in the connecting hole 101. The snow stud includes a shell 200 and a snow stud core 300. The shell 200 is fixedly connected to the connecting hole 101. For example, the outer wall of the shell 200 and the inner wall of the connecting hole 101 are both formed with threads, and the shell 200 is fastened in the connecting hole 101 by screwing. Alternatively, the shell 200 can be fastened to the mold base 100 by casting. The snow stud core 300 extends axially into the shell 200 at one end and extends out of the shell 200 at the other end. The two circumferential surfaces of the shell 200 and the snow stud core 300 are provided with a male pin key 400 on one of the circumferential surfaces and a female groove 500 on the other of the circumferential surfaces, and the pin key 400 and the groove 500 are engaged to connect the shell 200 and the snow stud core 300.

[0037] As Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the snow spike core 300 comprises a forming part for forming the snow spike mounting hole and a connecting part 304 for connecting the shell 200. The shape of the forming part can be designed according to the snow spike mounting hole; preferably, the forming part comprises a first forming part 301 and a second forming part 302, exemplarily, the first forming part 301 is a sphere and the second forming part 302 is a cylinder, the first forming part 301 and the second forming part 302 are coaxially connected and the outer diameter of the second forming part 302 is smaller than that of the first forming part 301.

[0038] The outer diameter of the connecting part 304 is greater than or equal to that of the second forming part 302; preferably, the outer diameter of the connecting part 304 is greater than that of the second forming part 302, and the forming part further comprises a third forming part 303; the third forming part 303 is a truncated cone, the large end of the third forming part 303 is connected to the connecting part 304, and the small end is connected to the second forming part 302. The snow spike core 300 has a structure of thick at both ends and thin in the middle, and the formed snow spike mounting hole also has a structure of thick at both ends and thin in the middle, which is beneficial to the stability and reliability of the snow spike installation on the tire.

[0039] The connecting part 304 of the snow spike core 300 is located in the shell 200 and is detachably connected to the shell 200.

[0040] As the first embodiment of the snow spike, as shown in the figure, Figures 3-6 The pin key 400 extends in the radial direction of the shell 200, one end of which is fixedly connected to the shell 200, and the other end extends into the inner cavity of the shell 200. Specifically, a through hole extending in the radial direction is processed on the shell 200, and the number of the through hole is the same as that of the pin key 400. One end of the pin key 400 is a fixed end, and the other end is a clamping end; the fixed end extends into the through hole and is in interference fit, realizing the fixed connection of the pin key 400 and the shell 200; the clamping end is preferably a spherical surface, which is in sliding contact with the groove 500 without clamping. The pin key 400 can be a cylinder, a cuboid, or any other shape, which can cooperate with the groove 500 to limit the snow spike core 300. The number of pin keys 400 is preferably 1-5, and they are preferably uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction of the shell 200.

[0041] The groove 500 is arranged on the outer surface of the connecting part 304, and the groove 500 comprises an axial extension part 501 and a circumferential extension part 502. The axial extension part 501 is opened on the end face of the connecting part 304 away from the third forming part 303, and extends axially into the snow spike core 300 from the end face; the circumferential extension part 502 is in communication with the axial extension part 501 and extends in the circumferential direction; the communication between the axial extension part 501 and the circumferential extension part 502 is L-shaped or T-shaped.

[0042] The pin key 400 is in clearance fit with the groove 500, that is, the clamping end of the pin key 400 is in sliding contact or has a certain clearance with the groove bottom of the groove 500, and the peripheral side of the pin key 400 is in sliding contact or has a certain clearance with the two side walls of the groove 500. When assembling, the axial extension 501 on the snow spike core 300 is aligned with the pin key 400 on the shell 200, and the snow spike core 300 is axially inserted into the shell 200. When the snow spike core 300 cannot continue to move axially, the snow spike core 300 is axially moved into position. At this time, the position of the circumferential extension 502 corresponds to the pin key 400; then, the snow spike core 300 is rotated by a certain angle, so that the pin key 400 enters the circumferential extension 502. It can be determined that the snow spike core 300 and the shell 200 are connected in place when an outward pulling force is applied to the snow spike core 300 in the axial direction but the snow spike core 300 does not produce axial displacement. It should be noted that, since the circumferential extension 502 has a certain length in the circumferential direction, the pin key 400 can axially limit the connection of the snow spike core 300 and the shell 200 at any position in the circumferential extension 502. However, it can be understood that the greater the distance between the pin key 400 and the axial extension 501, the higher the reliability of the connection of the snow spike core 300 and the shell 200. Therefore, it is preferred that the assembly is completed when the snow spike core 300 cannot continue to rotate, and at this time the pin key 400 is located at the end of the circumferential extension 502 away from the axial extension 501. The pin key 400 and the circumferential extension 502 cooperate to limit the axial movement of the snow spike core 300, and the two peripheral surfaces of the connecting portion 304 and the shell 200 are in close contact, thereby firmly installing the snow spike core 300 on the mold base 100. The snow spike is convenient to install and disassemble. When the tire mold is vulcanized, if the snow spike core 300 is damaged, it can be quickly and simply replaced by rotating the snow spike core 300 and pulling it out. This can effectively reduce the problem of downtime of the vulcanizing machine caused by replacement of the snow spike core 300.

[0043] The shell 200 has a first end face 201 and a second end face 202, wherein the first end face 201 is located in the connecting hole 101, and the second end face 202 is connected with the forming surface 102 and smoothly transitions. After the snow spike core 300 and the shell 200 are assembled, the outer side surface of the third forming portion 303 is connected with the second end face 202. The snow spike mounting hole structure of the tire mold of the present application is reasonable, the opening end of the snow spike mounting hole is trumpet-shaped, which facilitates the installation of the snow spike on the tire and does not cause damage to the tire.

[0044] As a second embodiment of the snow spike, as shown in Figure 7 different from the first embodiment, the pin key 400 is fixed on the outer peripheral surface of the connecting portion 304, and the groove 500 is located on the inner peripheral surface of the shell 200. The axial extension 501 of the groove 500 is opened on the second end face 202 and then extends axially into the interior of the shell 200 and communicates with the circumferential extension 502.

[0045] The above merely describes preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
