Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tire production equipment, and more specifically, it is an automatic reading device for tooling information at the production station of a tire rubber extrusion line. Background Technology
[0002] As is well known, in the traditional tire industry, when producing semi-finished components on rubber extrusion lines, the information on the semi-finished components loaded in the tooling at the output station is mainly recorded manually. This involves linking the tooling information with the information of the semi-finished components currently loaded in the tooling and filling out paper traceability cards. Manual recording is inefficient and prone to errors and delays in recording tooling or semi-finished product specifications, affecting normal traceability information retrieval. If incorrectly recorded semi-finished products are transferred to the next process, it may lead to the use of the wrong semi-finished products, affecting normal product quality. Furthermore, the circulation of paper traceability cards wastes office supplies and does not comply with green and low-carbon environmental protection requirements. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an automatic reading device for tooling information at the production station of a tire rubber extrusion line. This device enables automatic reading of semi-finished product tooling information at the production station of the rubber extrusion line. The production information system automatically binds traceability information through software functions, eliminating manual operation and the circulation of paper traceability cards, thus ensuring the consistency between the information of the semi-finished parts produced by the extrusion line and the actual products.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: an automatic reading device for tooling information of tire rubber extrusion line production station, including two extrusion line production stations. The device is characterized by: a photoelectric proximity switch installed on the guide rail of the extrusion line production station tooling cart at each extrusion line production station; an RFID antenna bracket installed on the side of each extrusion line production station near the photoelectric proximity switch; a high-frequency RFID reader / writer installed on the RFID antenna bracket; a semi-finished product tooling cart set on the guide rail of the extrusion line production station tooling cart within each extrusion line production station; an RFID chip bracket installed on the semi-finished product tooling cart; a high-frequency RFID chip installed on the inner side of the RFID chip bracket; the distance between the high-frequency RFID chip and the high-frequency RFID reader / writer controlled within 150mm; the photoelectric proximity switch controlling the power supply of the high-frequency RFID reader / writer; and the photoelectric proximity switch, high-frequency RFID reader / writer, and high-frequency RFID chip connected to a PLC controller.
[0005] The beneficial effects of this utility model are that it realizes the automatic binding of machine, material specifications, batch information, and tooling information of the actual output of the tire extrusion line, improves the level of automation and production efficiency, reduces human intervention, ensures that the information of the semi-finished products produced by the extrusion line matches the actual products, and reduces potential quality risks.

Semi-finished product tooling carriage; 6. RFID chip bracket; 7. High-frequency RFID chip. Detailed Implementation
[0010] As shown in the figure, this utility model includes two pressing line production stations. A photoelectric proximity switch 2 is installed on the pressing line production station tooling carriage guide rail 1 of each pressing line production station. An RFID antenna bracket 4 is installed on the side of each pressing line production station near the photoelectric proximity switch 2. A high-frequency RFID reader 3 is installed on the RFID antenna bracket 4. A semi-finished product tooling carriage 5 is set on the pressing line production station tooling carriage guide rail 1 in each pressing line production station. An RFID chip bracket 6 is installed on the semi-finished product tooling carriage 5. A high-frequency RFID chip 7 is installed on the inner side of the RFID chip bracket 6. The distance between the high-frequency RFID chip 7 and the high-frequency RFID reader 3 is controlled within 150mm. The photoelectric proximity switch 2 controls the power supply of the high-frequency RFID reader 3. The photoelectric proximity switch 2, the high-frequency RFID reader 3 and the high-frequency RFID chip 7 are connected to a PLC controller.
[0011] The steps for using this utility model are as follows:
[0012] Step 1: When the production station of the rubber extrusion line is empty and there is no semi-finished product tooling cart 5, the automated vertical warehouse system will transport the empty semi-finished product tooling cart 5 into the production station of the extrusion line along the tooling cart guide rail 1.
[0013] Step 2: The semi-finished product tooling cart 5 enters the production station of the rubber extrusion line. After the photoelectric proximity switch 2 of the production station of the extrusion line senses the semi-finished product tooling cart 5, it triggers the high-frequency RFID reader 3 to read the information of the high-frequency RFID chip 7 in the RFID chip bracket 6 on the semi-finished product tooling cart 5.
[0014] Step 3: When the semi-finished product tooling carriage 5 in the production station of the rubber extrusion line completes the curling and changes from an empty tooling to a full tooling, according to the integration of the extrusion line equipment and the production management system, the extrusion line equipment sends a signal to the production management system that the semi-finished product tooling carriage 5 in the production station of the extrusion line has completed curling.
[0015] Step 4: The production management system automatically binds the current machine and the specifications of the semi-finished products to the tooling information of the high-frequency RFID chip 7 of the semi-finished product tooling cart 5 in the pressing line output station, which is read by the high-frequency RFID reader 3.
