Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shaping and preheating technology, specifically to a shaping and preheating system for the central mechanism capsule of a tire vulcanizing machine. Background Technology

[0002] The bladder in the central mechanism of a tire vulcanizing machine is mainly used for tire molding, pressure and temperature transmission, sealing and pressure holding. It is usually made of high-temperature and high-pressure resistant synthetic rubber and directly determines the vulcanization efficiency, tire uniformity and service life. It is an indispensable core component in tire manufacturing.

[0003] Currently, the commonly used central mechanism capsules are directly shaped using nitrogen. When replacing new products, because they are not heated, their flexibility is poor. Direct stretching and inflation can easily damage the capsules and affect their lifespan. Usually, it is necessary to close the mold and rely on the heat dissipation of the tire mold to preheat them. The preheating time is relatively long because the capsules cannot withstand too much pressure when the mold is open. Utility Model Content

The intake shaping / vulcanizing shut-off valve is connected to a shaping / preheating shut-off valve via a pipe.

[0007] The shaping / preheating shut-off valve is connected to a steam balancing valve via a steam pipe, the steam balancing valve is connected to a steam filter via a steam pipe, and the steam filter is connected to low-pressure steam via a steam pipe.

[0009] In one embodiment, the intake shaping / vulcanization shut-off valve is further connected to an internal pressure intake assembly; the exhaust shaping / vulcanization shut-off valve is further connected to an internal pressure exhaust valve assembly and a shaping vent valve.

[0014] In one embodiment, the pressure regulating valve is connected to a gas source.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] 1. This utility model uses low-pressure steam preheating and an electrical converter to control the output pressure of the nitrogen balance valve and the steam balance valve, so that the capsule can be preheated to the optimal temperature for the release of capsule material properties in a short time.

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] Example 1

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment includes a capsule 1, which is connected to an intake shaping / vulcanization shut-off valve 2 and an exhaust shaping / vulcanization shut-off valve 2-1 via an intake pipe and an exhaust pipe, respectively. In this embodiment, the intake shaping / vulcanization shut-off valve 2 is connected to an internal pressure intake group; the exhaust shaping / vulcanization shut-off valve 2-1 is also connected to an internal pressure exhaust valve group and a shaping vent valve.

[0023] Furthermore, the air intake shaping / vulcanization shut-off valve 2 is connected to the shaping / preheating shut-off valve 3 via a pipeline; in this embodiment, the shaping / preheating shut-off valve 3 is connected to the steam balancing valve 7 via a steam pipeline, the steam balancing valve 7 is connected to the steam filter 6 via a steam pipeline, and the steam filter 6 is connected to low-pressure steam via a steam pipeline.

[0027] Since no green tire is loaded during preheating, the pressure of the medium filling the capsule 1 cannot be too high. Therefore, the medium input pressure needs to be controlled when preheating with steam. Selecting an electrical converter 10 that is shared with nitrogen shaping can save the cost of corresponding control components.

[0028] The working principle of this utility model is as follows;

[0029] 1. When the equipment is in the mold-opening state, after replacing the capsule with a new one, the touch screen sets the corresponding parameters of the electrical converter 10 to control the input pressure of the shaping steam; the capsule preheating / shaping switch 8 selects to open the steam balance valve 7, and the shaping / preheating shut-off valve 3 selects low-pressure steam to enter the capsule 1 through the shaping switch solenoid valve 9, and the equipment closes the mold and completes the preheating of the capsule 1;

[0030] 2. After preheating, select the venting and venting through the exhaust and venting / vulcanization shut-off valve 2-1, open the mold and select to enter the normal vulcanization state, select the normal vulcanization parameters on the touch screen, control the venting nitrogen input pressure, select the opening of the nitrogen balance valve 5 through the capsule preheating / venting switch 8, and select the venting nitrogen to enter capsule 1 through the venting / preheating shut-off valve 3 via the venting switch solenoid valve 9 to complete the venting of capsule 1.
