Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aircraft tire transportation technology, and specifically to an aircraft tire transportation device. Background Technology

[0002] Aircraft tires are core components that directly bear loads, impacts, and friction during aircraft takeoff and landing, and their performance is directly related to flight safety and operational efficiency. Compared with ordinary tires, aircraft tires have significant differences in materials, structure, manufacturing processes, and performance, and must meet the stringent requirements of the aviation industry for high load-bearing capacity, high strength, high reliability, and adaptability to extreme environments.

[0003] In the existing aircraft tire maintenance process, a closed-loop transfer of tires from the storage area to the landing gear assembly station requires specialized transport vehicles. This process involves multiple stages of loading and unloading operations. Because individual tires generally weigh over 150 kg and lack standardized gripping surfaces, traditional manual handling or simple lifting tools are prone to operational obstruction due to center of gravity shift, and may even lead to tire damage. Therefore, we propose an aircraft tire transport device to solve the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an aircraft tire transport device to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the existing aircraft tire operation and maintenance process requires the reliance on special transport vehicles to complete the closed-loop transfer of tires from the storage area to the landing gear assembly station. This process involves multiple stages of loading and unloading operations. Since the weight of a single tire generally exceeds 150 kg and there is no standardized gripping surface, traditional manual handling or simple lifting tools are prone to operational obstruction due to the shift of the center of gravity, and may even lead to tire damage.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] An aircraft tire transport device includes a U-shaped base plate. Multiple drive steering wheels are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the U-shaped base plate at even intervals. Two hydraulic lifting components are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper surface of the U-shaped base plate. Two longitudinal guide rail components are respectively arranged on the top of the two hydraulic lifting components. Two sliding plates are symmetrically arranged at the ends of the two longitudinal guide rail components on the side closest to each other. Two transverse guide rail components are respectively arranged on the upper surface of the two sliding rail components. Two tire clamping components are symmetrically arranged at the ends of the two transverse guide rail components on the side closest to each other. Two side baffles are respectively arranged on the side of the two tire clamping components on the side furthest from each other.

[0007] The tire clamping component includes a clamping block, one side of which is provided with an arc surface, and multiple rollers are uniformly rotated and connected to the inner side of the arc surface around an axis.

[0008] Furthermore, the hydraulic lifting component includes a lifting plate, with two hydraulic rods symmetrically fixedly connected to both ends of the lower surface of the lifting plate, and the bottoms of the two hydraulic rods fixedly connected to a U-shaped base plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the longitudinal guide rail component includes a longitudinal electric guide rail, with two longitudinal electric sliders slidably connected to both ends of the longitudinal electric guide rail, and the longitudinal electric guide rail is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lifting plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the two ends of the lower surface of the sliding plate are respectively fixedly connected to two longitudinal electric sliders.

[0011] Furthermore, the transverse guide rail component includes a transverse electric guide rail, with two transverse electric sliders slidably connected to both ends of the transverse electric guide rail, and the transverse electric guide rail is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the sliding plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the clamping block is fixedly connected to the transverse electric slider, and one side of the clamping block is fixedly connected to the side baffle.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This invention uses a transverse guide rail component to move two top tire clamping components to the radial sides of the tire bottom. Two longitudinal guide rail components move two sliding plates closer together, which in turn moves the two transverse guide rail components on the two sliding plates closer together. This allows multiple tire clamping components to clamp the bottom of the tire. Side baffles support the axial sides of the tire. Two hydraulic lifting components can lift the longitudinal guide rail components, thereby lifting the tire and removing it. This avoids manual or lifting equipment loading and unloading, improves work efficiency, and better ensures the safety of the tire during loading, unloading, and transportation.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an aircraft tire transport device, including a U-shaped base plate 1, a plurality of drive steering wheels 2 are fixedly connected at even intervals on the lower surface of the U-shaped base plate 1, two hydraulic lifting components 3 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper surface of the U-shaped base plate 1, two longitudinal guide rail components 4 are respectively arranged on the top of the two hydraulic lifting components 3, two sliding plates 5 are symmetrically arranged at the two ends of the two longitudinal guide rail components 4 on the side closer to each other, two transverse guide rail components 6 are respectively arranged on the upper surface of the two sliding plates 5, two tire clamping components 7 are symmetrically arranged at the two ends of the top of the two transverse guide rail components 6 on the side closer to each other, and two side baffles 8 are respectively arranged on the side of the two tire clamping components 7 away from each other;

[0022] The tire clamping component 7 includes a clamping block 701, with an arc surface 702 on one side of the clamping block 701, and multiple rollers 703 are rotatably connected to the inner side of the arc surface 702 around the axis.

[0023] The hydraulic lifting component 3 includes a lifting plate 301. Two hydraulic rods 302 are symmetrically fixedly connected to both ends of the lower surface of the lifting plate 301, and the bottoms of the two hydraulic rods 302 are fixedly connected to the U-shaped base plate 1. In this example, by setting up the hydraulic lifting component 3, the tires can be lifted and lowered, which facilitates loading, unloading, and transportation.

[0024] The longitudinal guide rail component 4 includes a longitudinal electric guide rail 401, with two longitudinal electric sliders 402 slidably connected to both ends of the longitudinal electric guide rail 401. The longitudinal electric guide rail 401 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lifting plate 301. In this example, by setting the longitudinal guide rail component, the two sliding plates 5 can be moved, which facilitates the movement of the tire clamping component 7 to clamp the tire.

[0025] The two ends of the lower surface of the sliding plate 5 are fixedly connected to two longitudinal electric sliders 402 respectively.

[0026] The transverse guide rail component 6 includes a transverse electric guide rail 601, with two transverse electric sliders 602 slidably connected to both ends of the transverse electric guide rail 601. The transverse electric guide rail 601 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the sliding plate 5. In this example, the transverse guide rail component 6 can drive the two tire clamping components 7 to clamp the two sides of the tire axially.

[0027] The clamping block 701 is fixedly connected to the transverse electric slider 602, and one side of the clamping block 701 is fixedly connected to the side baffle 8. In this example, by setting the side baffle 8, the axial side of the tire can be clamped, thus fixing the tire more stably.

[0028] Working principle: Multiple drive rotating wheels move the U-shaped base plate 1 to a designated position. Multiple hydraulic rods 302 drive the lifting plates 301 on both sides to descend, causing multiple tire clamping components 7 to move to the radial bottom sides of the tire. Multiple transverse electric sliders 602 move along the transverse electric guide rail 601, thereby bringing the tire clamping components 7 at both ends closer to each other, and making the inner side of the side baffle 8 flush with the axial sides of the tire. Multiple longitudinal electric sliders 402 move along the longitudinal electric guide rail 401, thereby driving multiple clamping blocks 701 to clamp the tire. The tire rolls onto the multiple tire clamping components 7 via multiple rollers 703. Multiple side baffles 8 support the axial sides of the tire. Multiple hydraulic rods 302 drive the lifting plates 301 to rise, thereby lifting the tire. Multiple drive steering wheels 2 transport the tire to the installation position and unload the tire.
