Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a tire mold technical field, especially a mold structure for solving the problem of mold sticking during mold opening of a two-piece tire mold. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the tire manufacturing industry, two-piece tire molds are commonly used mold types. However, mold sticking frequently occurs during mold opening, which seriously affects the production efficiency and quality of tires. The traditional structure of two-piece tire molds makes it difficult for the upper mold to separate smoothly from the tire and the lower mold due to factors such as the adhesion of rubber to the mold surface and the internal pressure distribution of the mold. Some existing solutions have many limitations, such as the use of mold release agents, which not only increases production costs but also may cause environmental pollution, and their effects are difficult to maintain long-term stability. Special treatment of the mold surface, such as polishing, will lose its effectiveness after multiple uses. SUMMARY

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to design a mold structure for solving the problem of mold sticking during mold opening of a two-piece tire mold. Through innovative structural design, the convenience, reliability, and efficiency of mold opening are improved, production costs and maintenance costs are reduced, and the quality of tire production is not affected.

[0023] As shown in the drawings Figures 1-3As shown, the present embodiment provides a mold structure for solving the problem of mold sticking during mold opening of a two-piece tire mold, which comprises a lower mold locking hole 1, a lower mold 2, a lower steel ring (lower tire lip ring) 3, a lower center mechanism of a curing machine 4, an upper mold locking hole 5, an upper mold 6, an upper steel ring and upper mold connecting screw hole 7, an upper steel ring (upper tire lip ring) 8, an upper chuck cover plate 9, an upper chuck 10, a lower chuck 11, a chuck nut 12, a flange and upper steel ring connecting screw hole 13, and a flange 14. The lower mold locking hole 1 is arranged at the left end of the lower mold 2 and is connected to the lower hot plate of the curing machine by locking bolts. The right end of the lower mold 2 is connected to the left end of the lower steel ring 3. The right end of the lower steel ring 3 is connected to the lower center mechanism of the curing machine 4 through the lower chuck 11, and the lower steel ring 3 and the lower chuck 11 are fixed by locking bolts. The upper mold locking hole 5 is arranged at the left end of the upper mold 6 and is connected to the upper hot plate of the curing machine by locking bolts. The right end of the upper mold 6 is connected to the left end of the upper steel ring 8. The right end of the upper steel ring 8 is connected to the upper chuck 10 through the upper chuck cover plate 9. The upper end of the upper chuck 10 is provided with the chuck nut 12. The upper chuck cover plate 9 and the upper chuck 10 are fixed by locking bolts. The upper steel ring and upper mold connecting screw hole 7 is arranged between the upper mold 6 and the upper steel ring 8 and is fixed by locking bolts. During use, the locking bolts in the upper steel ring and upper mold connecting screw hole 7 are removed. The upper steel ring 8 and the flange of the curing machine 14 are provided with matching flange and upper steel ring connecting screw holes 13 and are connected by locking bolts.

[0024] 1. Mold assembly

[0025] The upper steel ring 8 and the upper mold 6 are manufactured according to the separation design. During assembly of the mold in the mold house, the upper steel ring 8 and the upper mold 6 are connected by the locking bolts in the upper steel ring and upper mold connecting screw hole 7. After the mold is placed on the curing machine, the flange and upper steel ring connecting screw holes 13 matching the upper steel ring 8 and the flange of the curing machine 14 are connected by locking bolts. At this time, the locking bolts connecting the upper steel ring 8 and the upper mold 6 are removed. The flange of the curing machine 14 is connected to the flange center mechanism of the upper mold of the curing machine. The upper mold locking hole 5 is connected to the upper hot plate of the curing machine by locking bolts.

[0026] 2. Mold closing operation

[0027] The curing machine is started. The upper steel ring 8 and the upper mold 6 are lifted to a predetermined height by the flange of the curing machine and the upper hot plate of the curing machine. Then, the tire semi-finished product is placed on the lower mold 2. The upper steel ring 8 and the upper mold 6 are lowered by operating the curing machine. During the lowering process, as the upper steel ring 8 and the upper mold 6 continue to descend, when the mold closing is completed, the tire vulcanization operation is performed.

[0028] 3. Mold opening process

[0029] After the tire vulcanization is completed, the hot plate on the vulcanizing machine first moves upward, driving the upper mold 6 to move upward, at this time the vulcanizing machine flange plate 14 is fixed, the upper ring 8 linked with the flange plate 14 also maintains fixed, when the upper mold 6 has the vulcanized tire adhered to the mold, this process can realize the tire and the upper mold 6 to be separated; when the upper mold 6 moves upward to a certain distance and pauses, at this time the vulcanizing machine flange plate 14 moves upward, driving the upper ring 8 to move upward, reaches the pause position with the upper mold, and then connects with the upper mold 6 to move upward together, realizing the complete mold opening action.

[0030] Due to the separation design of the upper ring and the upper mold, the upper ring can move independently, effectively avoiding the adhesion problem.

[0031] After the upper ring is completely separated, other parts of the mold such as the upper side plate can be further operated according to the needs, such as cleaning, maintenance, etc., and then the next round of tire vulcanization production is prepared.

[0032] Although the present application has been described with reference to the explanatory embodiments thereof, the above-described embodiments are merely the preferred embodiments of the present application, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited by the above-described embodiments, and it should be understood that those skilled in the art can design many other modifications and embodiments, and these modifications and embodiments will fall within the scope and spirit of the present application.
