Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vulcanizing machines, and more specifically, to a vulcanizing machine mold and a vulcanizing machine. Background Technology

[0002] To ensure tire vulcanization quality, mold installers need to preload and adjust the molds during vulcanization. This preloading is to allow time for adjusting the mold's closing position, ensuring it's in the optimal closing state and guaranteeing high-quality tire vulcanization to produce qualified products. Especially with older mold shells, prolonged use leads to wear on the wear-resistant plates, requiring preloading adjustment after each vulcanization cycle. Currently, the common adjustment method involves placing a corresponding number of stainless steel shims under the shell insert ring based on the vulcanization results. Each adjustment requires removing the mold from the vulcanizing machine and then removing the shell insert ring. Since tire vulcanization workshops typically lack overhead cranes, forklift assistance is needed for removing the insert ring. The mold removal process is labor-intensive, physically demanding, and poses numerous safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a vulcanizing machine mold and a vulcanizing machine to solve the problem of time-consuming and labor-intensive adjustment of the vulcanizing machine mold in the prior art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, according to one aspect of the present invention, a vulcanizing machine mold is provided, comprising: an insert ring; a middle sleeve, wherein the insert ring is disposed above the middle sleeve and an adjustment groove is provided between the insert ring and the middle sleeve; and an adjusting member, wherein the adjusting member abuts against one of the insert ring and the middle sleeve and is threadedly connected to the other of the insert ring and the middle sleeve, so as to adjust the relative position of the insert ring and the middle sleeve.

[0005] Furthermore, the adjusting component has a screw, an insert ring, and a middle sleeve, one of which has a threaded hole, and at least part of the screw is rotatably disposed in the threaded hole.

[0006] Furthermore, the adjusting member has a head, which is connected to the screw and located in the adjusting groove. The cross-sectional area of ​​the head is larger than that of the screw, and the head abuts against one of the insert ring and the middle sleeve.

[0007] Furthermore, the head can be one of a square, hexagonal, or dodecagonal shape.

[0008] Furthermore, the side of the middle sleeve facing the inlay ring has a protrusion, and a step is formed at the edge of the protrusion. The inlay ring has a longitudinally extending extension, and an adjustment groove is formed on the side of the extension facing away from the center of the inlay ring. The bottom end of the extension has a recess on the side facing the adjustment groove, and the recess can be fitted with the step.

[0009] Furthermore, the vulcanizing mold also includes multiple adjusting shims. The adjusting shims are positioned between the insert ring and the middle sleeve. When the insert ring is adjusted to adjust its relative position to the middle sleeve, a gap is formed between the step and the recess. The adjusting shims are laid on the raised surface and extend into the gap.

[0010] Furthermore, at least a portion of the adjusting shim is disposed within the adjusting groove, and the adjusting shim and adjusting element are disposed at different circumferential positions within the adjusting groove.

[0011] Furthermore, there are multiple adjusting parts, and these adjusting parts are evenly distributed along the circumference of the insert.

[0012] Furthermore, the adjusting groove extends circumferentially along the insert ring, and the outer surface of the adjusting groove has an opening away from the center of the insert ring.

[0013] According to another aspect of the present invention, a vulcanizing machine is provided, including the vulcanizing machine mold described above.

[0014] By applying the technical solution of this utility model, an adjusting component is positioned between the insert ring and the middle sleeve, with the adjusting component abutting against one of the insert ring and the middle sleeve and threadedly connected to the other. This allows the adjusting component to rotate, thereby adjusting the height of the adjusting groove and the relative position of the middle sleeve and the insert ring. Consequently, when workers adjust the mold's closed state, they can directly adjust it by rotating the adjusting component without removing the insert ring, thus reducing the labor intensity of workers, improving work efficiency, and minimizing safety hazards. Furthermore, the adjustment method using the adjusting component does not require extensive adjustments to the existing vulcanizing machine mold, allowing it to continue to be used and saving costs.

[0023] To address the problem of time-consuming and labor-intensive adjustment of vulcanizing machine molds in existing technologies, this utility model provides a vulcanizing machine mold and a vulcanizing machine, wherein the vulcanizing machine includes the vulcanizing machine mold described below.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 A vulcanizing machine mold is shown, comprising: an insert ring 10; a middle sleeve 20, wherein the insert ring 10 is disposed above the middle sleeve 20 and an adjustment groove 11 is provided between the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20; and an adjustment member 30, wherein the adjustment member 30 is disposed in the adjustment groove 11, and the adjustment member 30 abuts against one of the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20 and is threadedly connected to the other of the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20 to adjust the relative position of the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20.

[0025] In this embodiment, the adjusting component 30 is positioned between the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20, and the adjusting component 30 abuts against one of the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20 and is threadedly connected to the other. This allows the adjusting component 30 to rotate, thereby adjusting the height of the adjusting groove 11 and adjusting the relative position of the middle sleeve 20 and the insert ring 10. This enables workers to directly adjust the mold's closed state by rotating the adjusting component 30 without removing the insert ring 10, thus reducing the labor intensity of workers, improving work efficiency, and reducing safety hazards. Furthermore, the adjustment method of the adjusting component 30 does not require excessive adjustments to the existing vulcanizing machine mold, allowing the existing vulcanizing machine mold to continue to be used, thereby saving costs.

[0026] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20 are arranged vertically. The height direction mentioned in this embodiment is also the arrangement direction of the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20. Figure 1 The up and down directions in the middle.

[0027] In this embodiment, the adjusting member 30 has a screw 31, and one of the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20 has a threaded hole. At least a portion of the screw 31 is rotatably disposed within the threaded hole to adjust the positional relationship between the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20. Specifically, as Figure 1 As shown, the insert ring 10 in this embodiment has a threaded hole. When the adjusting member 30 rotates, the length of the screw 31 within the threaded hole changes, thereby adjusting the length of the adjusting member 30 within the adjusting groove 11. When the length of the screw 31 within the threaded hole increases, the length of the adjusting member 30 within the adjusting groove 11 decreases, reducing the height of the adjusting groove 11 and thus reducing the total height of the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20. Conversely, when the length of the screw 31 within the threaded hole decreases, the length of the adjusting member 30 within the adjusting groove 11 increases, increasing the height of the adjusting groove 11 and thus increasing the total height of the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20. Thus, by adjusting the fitting length between the screw 31 and the threaded hole, the total height of the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20 is adjusted, enabling rapid adjustment of the vulcanizing machine mold and improving work efficiency. In this embodiment, the insert ring 10 has a threaded hole on the side facing the middle sleeve 20. The insert ring 10 is connected to the adjusting member 30, and the end of the adjusting member 30 away from the insert ring 10 abuts against the middle sleeve 20. Of course, depending on actual needs, the threaded hole can also be set on the middle sleeve 20, the screw 31 is threadedly connected to the middle sleeve 20, and the end of the adjusting part 30 away from the middle sleeve 20 abuts against the insert ring 10.

[0028] In this embodiment, the adjusting member 30 has a head 32, which is connected to the screw 31 and located within the adjusting groove 11. The cross-sectional area of ​​the head 32 is larger than that of the screw 31, and the head 32 abuts against one of the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20. Specifically, as Figure 2 As shown, the side of the head 32 away from the screw 31 is set as a plane, so that the head 32 can reliably abut against the middle sleeve 20, thereby ensuring the stability when the adjusting member 30 rotates and drives the insert ring 10 to rise and fall. In this embodiment, the cross-sectional area of ​​the head 32 refers to the projected area of ​​the head 32 on the plane perpendicular to the axial direction of the screw 31, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the screw 31 also refers to the projected area of ​​the screw 31 on the plane perpendicular to the axial direction of the screw 31. Setting the cross-sectional area of ​​the head 32 to be larger is beneficial to the fact that the adjusting member 30 can be stably set in the adjusting groove 11, avoiding the tilting of the adjusting member 30 and the breakage of the screw 31.

[0029] In this embodiment, the head 32 is one of a square, hexagonal, or dodecagonal shape. Figure 2As shown, the head 32 of the adjusting member 30 in this embodiment is hexagonal, allowing the operator to insert a tool into the adjusting groove 11 to fix the head 32 and rotate the adjusting member 30. Square, hexagonal, and dodecagonal shapes all have high symmetry and stability, which helps to maintain a uniform distribution of force when tightening or adjusting the adjusting member 30 and reduces the risk of slippage. Of course, depending on the convenience of actual operation, the head 32 can also adopt other shapes that are convenient for tool operation.

[0030] In this embodiment, the middle sleeve 20 has a protrusion 21 on the side facing the insert ring 10, and a step 211 is formed at the edge of the protrusion 21. The insert ring 10 has a longitudinally extending protruding section 12, and an adjustment groove 11 is formed on the side of the protruding section 12 facing away from the center of the insert ring 10. The bottom end of the protruding section 12 has a recess on the side facing the adjustment groove 11, and the recess can be fitted into the step 211. Specifically, in this embodiment, both the middle sleeve 20 and the insert ring 10 are configured as annular structures. The protruding section 12 is located on the side of the insert ring 10 closer to the center, thereby forming an adjustment groove 11 between the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20. The adjustment groove 11 is farther away from the center of the insert ring 10 than the protruding section 12, so as to facilitate the tool to be inserted into the adjustment groove 11 from the outer periphery of the insert ring 10 to adjust the adjusting member 30. Step 211 is located on the side of protrusion 21 near the center of middle sleeve 20. Protrusion 21 forms an annular protrusion 21 on the entire middle sleeve 20. Step 211 also forms an annular step 211 near the center of middle sleeve 20 on the entire middle sleeve 20. The recess is located on the side of protruding section 12 away from the center of insert ring 10, thus forming a right-angled recess at the bottom end of protruding section 12. The recess forms an annular recess on the entire insert ring 10. The diameter of the edge of protrusion 21 near the center of middle sleeve 20 is not less than that of the annular recess near the insert ring. The diameter of one side of the center of ring 10 allows the annular step 211 to extend into the annular recess, enabling the protrusion 21 to embed into the recess. This serves two purposes: firstly, it allows the ring 10 to move along the edges of the protrusion 21 and the recess when it rises or falls relative to the middle sleeve 20, acting as a guide; secondly, the step 211 embedded in the recess provides circumferential restraint for the ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20, maintaining their coaxial alignment and preventing circumferential misalignment. Both the recess and the protrusion 21 have a certain extension length along the height direction, ensuring that when the adjusting member 30 adjusts the position of the ring 10, the protrusion 21 can be partially embedded in the recess, maintaining the circumferential restraint relationship between the ring 10 and the center.

[0031] In this embodiment, the vulcanizing machine mold also includes a plurality of adjusting shims 40. The adjusting shims 40 are disposed between the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20. When the insert ring 10 is adjusted to the relative position with the middle sleeve 20, a gap is formed between the step 211 and the recess. The adjusting shims 40 are laid on the surface of the protrusion 21 and extend into the gap to fill the gap, thereby avoiding continuous stress on the adjusting member 30 and preventing the screw 31 from breaking. Specifically, when the adjusting component 30 is rotated so that the insert ring 10 moves away from the middle sleeve 20, the height of the adjusting groove 11 increases, and the gap between the step 211 and the recess along the height direction increases. This prevents the upper surface of the step 211 from fitting against the lower surface of the recess, resulting in a greater force on the screw 31. When the adjusting shim 40 is inserted into the gap and fills it, the height of the step 211 increases after the adjusting shim 40 is stacked, allowing the adjusting shim 40 to abut against the lower surface of the recess. This allows the weight of the insert ring 10 to be transferred through the recess and the adjusting shim 40 to the step 211 and ultimately to the middle sleeve 20, thus preventing continuous stress on the adjusting component 30 and improving the reliability and safety of the vulcanizing machine mold, while also extending the service life of the adjusting component 30. Depending on the actual situation, if the gap size is inconsistent, shims of different thicknesses can be used to ensure the gap is filled, or multiple shims can be stacked to fill the gap. Considering that both the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20 are annular structures, multiple adjusting shims 40 are arranged along the circumference of the adjusting groove 11 to ensure the coaxiality of the insert ring 10 and the middle sleeve 20, preventing the insert ring 10 or the middle sleeve 20 from tilting due to uneven force, thereby improving the accuracy of the vulcanizing machine mold and enhancing safety. Optionally, the adjusting shims 40 arranged along the circumference of the adjusting groove 11 can be evenly distributed to improve the uniformity of force distribution.

[0032] In this embodiment, at least a portion of the adjusting shim 40 is disposed within the adjusting groove 11, and the adjusting shim 40 and the adjusting member 30 are disposed at different circumferential positions within the adjusting groove 11. Considering that the contact surface between the recess and the step 211 is small and the contact surface is far from the opening side of the adjusting groove 11, the adjusting shim 40 in this embodiment is relatively large. The width of the adjusting shim 40 can extend from the outer periphery of the middle sleeve 20 to the edge of the protrusion 21 near the center of the middle sleeve 20, so that when the operator places the adjusting shim 40 into the adjusting groove 11, the adjusting shim 40 has sufficient width to contact the upper surface of the step 211 and the lower surface of the recess, thereby ensuring the reliability and effectiveness of the adjusting shim 40 in filling the gap. When the screw 31 of the adjusting member 30 supports the insert ring 10 and the head 32 abuts against the middle sleeve 20, the adjusting shim 40 cannot extend into the corresponding gap due to the obstruction of the adjusting member 30. Therefore, the adjusting shim 40 is disposed at other circumferential positions within the adjusting groove 11 different from those of the adjusting member 30 to improve operational convenience.

[0033] In this embodiment, to ensure that the adjusting member 30 can evenly lift or lower the insert ring 10 along its circumference, there are multiple adjusting members 30, and these multiple adjusting members 30 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the insert ring 10. This improves the adjustment accuracy of the insert ring 10, prevents the insert ring 10 from tilting, and ensures the uniformity of the gap between the step 211 and the recess, so that the worker can smoothly fill the gap with the adjusting shim 40. Preferably, there are no fewer than three adjusting members 30 evenly distributed along the circumference of the insert ring 10 to ensure the safety of the adjustment process.

[0034] In this embodiment, considering the convenience of the staff to adjust the adjustment member 30 and the adjustment shim 40, the adjustment groove 11 extends circumferentially along the insert ring 10, and the outer side of the adjustment groove 11 has an opening away from the center of the insert ring 10.

[0035] The usage process of the vulcanizing machine mold in this embodiment is as follows: When the vulcanizing machine mold needs to be adjusted during vulcanization, the fixing bolts that fix the vulcanizing machine mold on the vulcanizing machine are removed, the operator rotates each adjusting part 30, adjusts the insert ring 10 to a suitable height, and then inserts the shim into the recess and the adjustment gap, thereby realizing the adjustment of the vulcanizing machine mold.

[0036] It should be noted that "multiple" in the above embodiments refers to at least two.

[0037] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects:

[0038] 1. This solves the problem of time-consuming and labor-intensive adjustment of vulcanizing machine molds in existing technologies;

[0039] 2. By setting the adjusting component between the insert ring and the middle sleeve, and having the adjusting component abut against one of the insert ring and the middle sleeve and threadedly connected to the other, the height of the adjusting groove can be adjusted when the adjusting component rotates, thereby adjusting the relative position of the middle sleeve and the insert ring. This allows the operator to directly adjust the mold closing state by rotating the adjusting component without removing the insert ring, thus reducing the labor intensity of the operator, improving work efficiency, and reducing safety hazards.

[0040] 3. The adjustment method of the setting adjustment parts does not require too much adjustment to the existing vulcanizing machine mold, so that the existing vulcanizing machine mold can continue to be used, thereby saving costs.
