Furthermore, prolonged operation increases the physical strain on workers.

[0003] With the rapid development of modern manufacturing, modern production not only requires tire clamps to have higher precision and lighter design, but also emphasizes the level of automation and intelligence in the production process, as well as the precision and flexibility of handling. Existing equipment is unable to meet the urgent needs of industry development. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a handling device for a tire production line to solve the above-mentioned technical problems such as high labor intensity of workers and low level of equipment automation.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a handling device for a tire production line. The handling device includes a multi-axis robot, a gantry frame, two sliding table arms, a servo motor, and two clamping mechanisms.

The two sliding table arms are symmetrically and movably mounted on the gantry frame. The servo motor is mounted on the gantry frame and drives the sliding table arms to move. The two clamping mechanisms are mounted on the two sliding table arms and are used to symmetrically clamp tires.

[0006] In one embodiment, the clamping mechanism includes a fixed bracket and a clamping plate, the fixed bracket being disposed on the slide arm and the clamping plate being disposed on the fixed bracket.

[0013] In one embodiment, there are multiple tension springs.

[0014] In one embodiment, the multi-axis robot can be designed as a six-axis robot.

[0015] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has beneficial effects. By fixing a multi-axis robot to the factory floor, stability during movement is ensured.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific implementation schemes. However, those skilled in the art should understand that the implementation schemes described below are only for illustrating this utility model and should not be regarded as limiting the scope of this utility model. Based on the implementation schemes in this utility model, all other implementation schemes obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0023] Exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Example 1: A conveying device 100 for a tire production line, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes a multi-axis robot (not shown), a frame 10, a slide arm 20, a servo motor 11, and a clamping mechanism 30.

[0025] The end effector of the multi-axis robot is located on the ground of the factory. The gantry 10 is located at the front end of the multi-axis robot. Two slide arms 20 are symmetrically and movably mounted on the gantry 10. A servo motor 11 is mounted on the gantry 10 and drives the slide arms 20 to move. Two clamping mechanisms 30 are mounted on the two slide arms 20 and are used to symmetrically clamp tires.

[0026] Example 2: A conveying device 100 for a tire production line, based on Example 1, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the clamping mechanism 30 includes a fixed bracket 31, a clamping plate 32, a pressure bearing 34, a connecting shaft 33, an oil-free bushing 35, and a tension spring 36. The fixed bracket 31 is mounted on the slide arm 20, the clamping plate 32 is mounted on the fixed bracket 31, the pressure bearing 34 is mounted on the fixed bracket 31, the connecting shaft 33 is mounted in the hole of the pressure bearing 34, the oil-free bushing 35 is sleeved on the end of the connecting shaft 33, the oil-free bushing 35 is connected to the back of the clamping plate 32, one end of the tension spring 36 is connected to the fixed bracket 31, and the other end of the tension spring 36 is connected to the clamping plate 32.

[0027] The handling device 100, through the coordinated operation of the fixed bracket 31, clamping plate 32, pressure bearing 34, connecting shaft 33, oil-free bushing 35, and tension spring 36 in the clamping mechanism 30, can firmly clamp the tire, ensuring that the tire will not slip or fall off during transportation. At the same time, the cooperative design of the pressure bearing 34, connecting shaft 33, and oil-free bushing 35 not only enhances the wear resistance and durability of the clamping mechanism 30, but also allows the clamping plate 32 to rotate. When the handling device 100 clamps tires of different sizes, the clamping plate 32 can rotate to the appropriate position to clamp the tire. The elastic buffering effect of the tension spring 36 further ensures the stability of the clamping force, making the clamping force neither too large nor too small, effectively protecting the tire from damage and ensuring the safety and smoothness of the transportation process.

[0028] Example 3: A conveying device 100 for a tire production line, based on Example 2, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the gantry 10 also includes a lead screw 12, a reducer 13, and a coupling 14. The lead screw 12 is located below the gantry 10. The reducer 13 is connected to the servo motor 11. The lead screw 12 is connected to the reducer 13 through the coupling 14. The servo motor 11 drives the reducer 13, thereby causing the lead screw 12 to rotate. The transmission between the lead screw 12 and the moving parts realizes a smooth and precise handling process, which improves the automation level and work efficiency of the tire production line and ensures the stability and accuracy of the gripping and transportation process.

[0029] Example 4: A conveying device 100 for a tire production line, based on Example 3, such as... Figure 4 As shown, a sliding arm 20 is provided with two clamping mechanisms 30, which are arranged at intervals on the sliding arm 20. The outer side of the clamping plate 32 is arc-shaped, and there are multiple tension springs 36. The multi-axis robot can be designed as a six-axis robot.

[0030] Two clamping mechanisms 30 mounted on a sliding arm 20 ensure the stability and safety of the tire during transport. The outer side of the clamping plate 32 is arc-shaped, adapting to different positions on the tire surface for more precise clamping. Simultaneously, the clamping plate 32 can rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, allowing it to rotate to a suitable angle regardless of tire size for effective clamping, further improving equipment efficiency. Furthermore, a tension spring 36 pulls the clamping plate 32 in the direction required for clamping, ensuring that it does not swing arbitrarily when no external force is applied. This guarantees the stability of the clamping mechanism 30, effectively preventing accuracy loss and potential safety issues caused by swaying, and ensuring reliable tire clamping under various working conditions. The multi-axis robot is designed as a six-axis robot, improving the equipment's flexibility and precision, expanding its operating range, adapting to various complex working conditions, and reducing worker workload, thus significantly improving automation and production efficiency.

[0031] In operation, this invention uses a servo motor 11 to drive the slide arm 20. The slide arm 20 is equipped with symmetrically distributed fixed supports 31 and clamping plates 32. The clamping mechanism 30 not only has a clamping function but also enhances its durability through pressure bearings 34, connecting shafts 33, and oil-free bushings 35. The clamping plate 32 can also rotate, ensuring effective clamping of tires of different sizes. Simultaneously, a tension spring 36 maintains the clamping force, ensuring the tire remains stable and does not fall off during transport. Furthermore, the cooperation of the lead screw 12, reducer 23, and coupling 14 allows the slide arm 20 to move smoothly, improving the overall operating efficiency of the transport device 100. In addition, the clamping plate 32 is designed with an arc-shaped structure that can rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, further enhancing its adaptability. In summary, this transport device 100 can achieve stable transport and fixing of tires, reducing the labor intensity of workers, saving labor costs, and significantly improving the working efficiency and automation level of the tire production line.

[0032] Although the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, some modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
