The present utility model will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0032] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a tire handling device for tire processing includes a conveyor belt 1 (the width of the conveyor belt 1 is adapted to the diameter of the tire), a base 2, a deflection assembly, a mounting rod 3, a first telescopic component 4, an electric gripper 5, a track-type electric flatbed 6, a vertical roller 7, a vision camera 8, a six-degree-of-freedom robotic arm 9, a mounting frame 10, and a clamping assembly.

[0033] The base 2 is located on the ground at one end of the conveyor belt 1;

[0034] The deflection assembly is mounted on the base 2 and is connected by the mounting rod 3;

[0035] The first telescopic component 4 is symmetrically fixed at both ends of the mounting rod 3, and the first telescopic component 4 is connected to an electric gripper 5.

[0036] The track-mounted electric flatbed cart 6 is located below one of the electric grippers 5 and a vision camera 8 electrically connected to the track-mounted electric flatbed cart 6 is fixed on the electric gripper 5. The other electric gripper 5 is located directly above the end area of ​​the conveyor belt 1.

[0037] A plurality of vertical rollers 7 are equidistantly fixed on the track-type electric flat car 6 and are distributed in front and back, wherein one of the vertical rollers 7 is directly below one of the electric clamping jaws 5; (further optimization of the scheme, a rubber sleeve 16 is fixed on the outer side of each vertical roller 7) ;

[0038] The six-degree-of-freedom mechanical arm 9 is located on one side of the end track of the track-type electric flat car 6 and is connected with a mounting frame 10.

[0039] A clamping assembly is arranged on the mounting frame 10 to batch remove a plurality of tires on each vertical roller 7.

[0040] Further refinement of the embodiment scheme of the utility model is shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The clamping assembly includes a second telescopic member 11 and a clamping plate 12 with a circular arc shape, a plurality of sets of corresponding second telescopic members 11 are symmetrically arranged along the height direction of the mounting frame 10, and the second telescopic members 11 are connected with the clamping plates 12 which are distributed in opposition.

[0041] Further refinement of the embodiment scheme of the utility model is shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The deflection assembly includes a connecting roller 13 and a gear transmission assembly 14, the connecting roller 13 is rotatably connected to the base 2, one end of the connecting roller 13 is connected to the center of the mounting rod 3, and the connecting roller 13 is connected with the gear transmission assembly 14 fixed on the base 2 (the gear transmission assembly 14 belongs to the prior art and is not improved, including a driving motor, a main gear and a secondary gear).

[0042] Further optimization of the above embodiment scheme, a plurality of reinforcing plates 15 with a triangular shape are arranged at the connection between the connecting roller 13 and the mounting rod 3.

[0043] It should be noted that the conveyor belt 1, the first telescopic member 4, the electric clamping jaw 5, the track-type electric flat car 6, the visual camera 8, the six-degree-of-freedom mechanical arm 9, the second telescopic member 11 and the gear transmission assembly 14 are electrically connected with a controller, the controller is not shown in the figure and can be arranged on the base 2.

[0044] The working process of the utility model is as follows:

[0045] First, the qualified tires are transported in turn by the conveyor belt 1 at a uniform speed and equal intervals. When a tire moves to the end of the conveyor belt 1, the first telescopic member 4 on the left side drives the electric clamping jaw 5 to move downward, so that the tire can be clamped and separated from the conveyor belt 1. At this time, the first telescopic member 4 on the right side and the electric clamping jaw 5 do not work. Then, the controller controls the gear transmission assembly 14 to operate, so that the positions of the two electric clamping jaws 5 are replaced. After the replacement is completed, the electric clamping jaw 5 clamping the tire can put the tire sleeve on one of the vertical rollers 7 (the center hole of the rim passes through the vertical roller 7, and the rubber sleeve 16 can avoid the hard contact between the rim and the vertical roller 7 to cause wear). At the same time, the electric clamping jaw 5 on the other side performs the clamping operation of the next tire, so that the continuous clamping and carrying of the tire can be realized (the conveying speed of the tire and the clamping time interval are preset in the controller).

[0046] When the visual camera 8 detects that the number of tires placed on one vertical roller 7 has reached the preset value, a feedback signal is sent to the controller. Then, the controller controls the track-type electric flatcar 6 to change the position, so that the next adjacent vertical roller 7 without the tire is accurately moved to the right below the electric clamping jaw 5. Then, the tire can be continuously placed on other vertical rollers 7. When the vertical rollers 7 are all full of tires, the conveyor belt 1 is stopped by the controller. At this time, the track-type electric flatcar 6 can transfer the tires to the end area of the track. When the automatic transfer of the tires is completed, the six-degree-of-freedom mechanical arm 9 drives the mounting frame 10 to move and cooperate with the stable clamping of the clamping assembly, so that the batch unloading of the tires on one vertical roller 7 can be realized. Then, the batch unloading of the tires on the vertical rollers 7 is sequentially performed. After the unloading is completed, the next processing procedure can be performed, and the track-type electric flatcar 6 can move back to the area below the right electric clamping jaw 5 under the control of the controller, so that the tire carrying and feeding process can be started again.

[0047] Compared with the prior art, the device can automatically complete the automatic feeding of the qualified tires after the appearance detection to the transfer vehicle. After the feeding is completed, the tires are placed in an orderly manner. When all the stations are fed, the tires can be automatically transferred to the next process and the batch unloading process of the tires can be automatically completed. Therefore, the labor intensity of manual intervention operation is significantly reduced, and the automatic degree of the tire feeding and unloading carrying and transfer process is higher.

[0048] The basic principle, main features and advantages of the present application are shown and described above. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present application is not limited by the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions in the specification are only to illustrate the principles of the present application. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, various changes and improvements can be made to the present application, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present application.
