Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model specifically relates to the field of tire sorting technology, and more specifically to an automatic tire sorting system. Background Technology

[0002] Tires come in various sizes, models, and specifications, such as different diameters, widths, aspect ratios, and rim sizes. To facilitate inventory management, sales, and distribution, tires are generally sorted by size. This allows for quick and accurate location of specific tire specifications, improving work efficiency and helping to avoid incorrect installation and use due to specification confusion.

[0003] However, in practice, it has been noted that most tire sorting still requires manual inspection of tire size and control of the tilt angle of the guide plate to guide the tire onto the appropriate conveyor belt. This method is not only inefficient but also has a high error rate. In addition, some automated sorting equipment uses guide plates to distinguish tire size for automatic sorting. However, the guide plates of such equipment are independent and cannot be interchanged. When one is damaged, the machine needs to be stopped for repair, and the long repair time will affect normal sorting. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic tire sorting system that divides the guide plate into multiple independent rollers, which can be combined and used according to the required length, and are interchangeable. This allows for quick replacement during maintenance, improving maintenance efficiency and reducing operating costs. This addresses the technical problems mentioned in the background section.

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

[0006] An automatic tire sorting system includes a chain plate main conveyor and chain plate branch conveyors arranged in an interleaved manner, and a combined guide frame and triangular blocking plate arranged in a rectangular array are provided above the connection between the chain plate main conveyor and the chain plate branch conveyor.

[0007] The combined guide frame is fixedly connected to an end fixing frame at its end, and the bottom of the end fixing frame is fixedly connected to the side of the chain plate main conveyor away from the chain plate branch conveyor, while the triangular blocking plate is located between the two combined guide frames.

[0008] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the combined guide frame includes a guide roller bracket, a rotating guide roller is movably connected to the inner side of the guide roller bracket, a dovetail-shaped limiting groove is provided on one side of the guide roller bracket, and a dovetail-shaped locking block corresponding to the dovetail-shaped limiting groove is integrally provided on the other side of the guide roller bracket.

[0009] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the guide roller bracket is provided with inclined surfaces at all four corners, and each inclined surface is provided with a T-shaped slot, while both sides of the triangular blocking plate are provided with T-shaped positioning blocks corresponding to the T-shaped slots.

[0010] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the guide roller bracket has spherical slots arranged in a rectangular array below, and each spherical slot is fitted with a supporting ball, the bottom of which is in contact with the chain plate main conveyor.

[0011] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the end fixing frame has an L-shaped end plate that is fixedly connected to the side of the chain plate main conveyor, and a dovetail-shaped insert rod corresponding to the dovetail-shaped limiting groove is symmetrically provided above the L-shaped end plate, and the dovetail-shaped insert rod is inserted into the dovetail-shaped limiting groove.

[0012] As a further technical solution of this utility model, T-shaped slots corresponding to T-shaped positioning blocks are also provided on both sides of the L-shaped end plate, and the T-shaped positioning blocks on the side of the triangular blocking plate near the L-shaped end plate are inserted into the T-shaped slots.

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

[0014] According to the required guide plate length, several combined guide frames are taken. Through the cooperation of the dovetail-shaped limiting grooves and dovetail-shaped locking blocks on both sides of the guide roller bracket, the multiple set guide roller brackets are connected together in a rectangular array to form the required length. Furthermore, due to the versatility of the combined guide frame, any combined guide frame can be swapped or quickly replaced at any time, which facilitates maintenance and reduces the cost of use.

[0015] In this invention, after assembling multiple combined guide frames, a triangular baffle is placed between two combined guide frames, and the T-shaped positioning blocks on both sides of the triangular baffle are respectively inserted into the T-shaped slots on the inclined surface of the guide roller bracket. This increases the structural strength between the two combined guide frames, prevents the connection from being subjected to unidirectional load for a long time, which may cause deformation or damage, and thus extends the service life.

[0016] In this invention, the bottom of the guide roller bracket has a rectangular array of spherical grooves that limit the position of the support balls. The support balls support the weight of the guide roller bracket and roll in the spherical grooves along with the conveyor chain on the chain plate main conveyor, thus not affecting the normal use of the chain plate main conveyor.

Detailed Implementation

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0028] Please see Figure 1-8 This utility model provides an automatic tire sorting system, including a chain plate main conveyor 1 and a chain plate branch conveyor 2 arranged in an interleaved manner, and a combined guide frame 4 in a rectangular array and a triangular blocking plate 5 are provided above the connection between the chain plate main conveyor 1 and the chain plate branch conveyor 2.

[0029] The combined guide frame 4 is fixedly connected to an end fixing frame 3 at its end, and the bottom of the end fixing frame 3 is fixedly connected to the side of the chain plate main conveyor 1 away from the chain plate branch conveyor 2, while the triangular blocking plate 5 is located between the two combined guide frames 4.

[0030] Furthermore, the combined guide frame 4 includes a guide roller bracket 41, and a rotating guide roller 42 is movably connected to the inner side of the guide roller bracket 41. A dovetail-shaped limiting groove 43 is provided on one side of the guide roller bracket 41, and a dovetail-shaped locking block corresponding to the dovetail-shaped limiting groove 43 is integrally provided on the other side of the guide roller bracket 41.

[0031] More specifically, the guide roller bracket 41 has inclined surfaces at its four corners, and each inclined surface has a T-shaped slot 44. The two sides of the triangular blocking plate 5 are integrally provided with T-shaped positioning blocks corresponding to the T-shaped slots 44.

[0032] By adopting the above technical solution, according to the required guide plate length, several combined guide frames 4 are taken. Through the mutual cooperation of the dovetail-shaped limiting grooves 43 and dovetail-shaped locking blocks on both sides of the guide roller bracket 41, the multiple set guide roller brackets 41 are connected together in a rectangular array to form the required length. Furthermore, due to the versatility of the combined guide frame 4, any combined guide frame 4 can be swapped or quickly replaced at any time, which facilitates maintenance and reduces usage costs.

[0033] Furthermore, the guide roller bracket 41 has spherical slots 46 arranged in a rectangular array below it, and each spherical slot 46 is fitted with a support ball 45, the bottom of which is in contact with the chain plate main conveyor 1.

[0034] By adopting the above technical solution, the rectangular array of spherical slots 46 at the bottom of the guide roller bracket 41 limits the position of the support balls 45. The support balls 45 support the weight of the guide roller bracket 41, and the support balls 45 will roll in the spherical slots 461 along with the conveyor chain on the chain plate main conveyor 1, so as not to affect the normal use of the chain plate main conveyor 1.

[0035] Furthermore, the end fixing frame 3 has an L-shaped end plate 31 fixedly connected to the side of the chain plate main conveyor 1, and the upper part of the L-shaped end plate 31 is symmetrically provided with a dovetail-shaped insertion rod 32 corresponding to the dovetail-shaped limiting groove 43, and the dovetail-shaped insertion rod 32 is inserted into the dovetail-shaped limiting groove 43.

[0036] More specifically, the L-shaped end plate 31 is provided with T-shaped slots 33 on both sides corresponding to the T-shaped positioning blocks, and the T-shaped positioning blocks on the side of the triangular blocking plate 5 near the L-shaped end plate 31 are inserted into the T-shaped slots 33.

[0037] By adopting the above technical solution, after assembling multiple combined guide frames 4, a triangular baffle 5 is placed between two combined guide frames 4, and the T-shaped positioning blocks on both sides of the triangular baffle 5 are respectively inserted into the T-shaped slots 44 on the inclined surface of the guide roller bracket 41, which increases the structural strength between the two combined guide frames 4, prevents the connection from being subjected to unidirectional load for a long time, thus preventing deformation or damage, and extending the service life.

[0038] Furthermore, the inclined surface of the triangular blocking plate 5 is in contact with the inclined surface of the guide roller bracket 41, and the T-shaped positioning blocks at adjacent positions are inserted into the corresponding T-shaped slots 44, increasing the structural strength between the two guide roller brackets 41 and preventing damage.

[0039] Furthermore, triangular baffles 5 can be installed on both sides of the connection between the two guide roller supports 41 to further improve the structural strength of the connection.

[0040] Furthermore, the chain plate type branch conveyor 2 is vertically arranged on the side of the chain plate type main conveyor 1. After being guided by the combined guide frame 4, the tire on the chain plate type main conveyor 1 will move towards the chain plate type branch conveyor 2. If the size of the tire meets the requirements, the tire will move with the conveyor chain plate on the chain plate type branch conveyor 2. If the size of the tire is smaller than the requirements, the tire will not contact the transmission chain plate on the chain plate type branch conveyor 2.

[0041] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, according to the required guide plate length, several combined guide frames 4 are taken. Through the cooperation of the dovetail-shaped limiting grooves 43 and dovetail-shaped locking blocks on both sides of the guide roller bracket 41, multiple guide roller brackets 41 are connected together in a rectangular array to form the required length. Then, according to the number of chain-plate branch conveyors 2, different numbers of guide plates are installed, and the length of the guide plates should increase sequentially along the forward direction. A triangular blocking plate 5 is inserted into one or both sides of the connection between two guide roller brackets 41, and the T-shaped positioning block on the triangular blocking plate 5 is inserted into the corresponding T-shaped slot 44. The triangular blocking plate 5 is located near the side of the L-shaped end plate 31. The T-shaped positioning block on one side of the baffle plate 5 is inserted into the T-shaped slot 33. Then, the tire is placed at the end of the chain plate main conveyor 1. The tire moves to the other end with the conveyor chain plate on the chain plate main conveyor 1. When the tire touches the rotating guide roller 42 movably connected in the guide roller bracket 41, it will move along the inclined direction of the guide roller bracket 41. If the tire size meets the requirements, the tire will move with the conveyor chain plate on the chain plate branch conveyor 2. If the tire size is smaller than the requirements, the tire will not contact the transmission chain plate on the chain plate branch conveyor 2. The tire will continue to be pulled with the chain plate main conveyor 1, thereby completing automatic sorting. The structure is simple, the operation is very convenient, and the manual labor intensity is effectively reduced.
