Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tire processing machinery technology, specifically to a pneumatic expansion and contraction type tire support mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the dimensions of special tire wire bead sizes require adjustments to the inner diameter of the wire bead within a certain range based on actual working conditions and forming processes, all within the same inch size, to meet specific needs. A search reveals a utility model patent with publication number CN212386058U, which discloses a tire wire bead rotating support device. Its rotating mechanism includes a rotating platform driven by a rotary servo motor, with a support frame mounted on the platform. The support mechanism includes upper and lower support arms, which are mounted on the support frame via left and right sliding pairs. The upper and lower support arms perform synchronous opening and closing movements under the drive of a ball screw transmission pair driven by the support servo motor. However, traditional support mechanisms are fixed, and each support mechanism can only accommodate one wire bead diameter, requiring tooling changes to meet the forming requirements of different diameter wire bead sizes. Therefore, improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pneumatic expansion and contraction type support ring mechanism, which solves the problem that the traditional support ring mechanism is fixed and each type of support ring mechanism can only meet one type of wire ring diameter, resulting in poor applicability.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a pneumatic expansion and contraction support ring mechanism, including a mounting base, an adjusting base mounted on the front end of the mounting base via a flange, a rear pressure plate mounted on the front end of the adjusting base via a flange, a drive plate rotatably connected to the front end of the rear pressure plate, a transmission shaft fixedly connected to the back of the drive plate, a fixing base mounted on the outer wall of the adjusting base via bolts, a cylinder hinged on the fixing base, a drive block movably connected to the end of the telescopic shaft of the cylinder, the drive block being fixedly connected to the transmission shaft, a fixing plate fixedly connected to the front end of the drive plate, multiple guide blocks mounted on the fixing plate via bolts, a support ring claw piece slidably connected between adjacent guide blocks, and the support ring claw piece slidably connected to the fixing plate, a connecting shaft fixedly connected to the support ring claw piece, a deep groove ball bearing mounted on the outer side of the connecting shaft, an elliptical groove formed inside the drive plate, the elliptical groove penetrating the drive plate, and the deep groove ball bearing slidably connected within the elliptical groove.

[0005] Preferably, a plurality of positioning blocks are fixedly connected to the front end of the mounting base, and the positioning blocks engage with the adjusting base. The positioning blocks serve to position the adjusting base on the mounting base.

[0006] Preferably, a wear-resistant pad is fixedly connected to the back of the drive disk, and the wear-resistant pad is in contact with the fixed disk. The wear-resistant pad serves to position the fixed disk on the drive disk.

The oil-storing sponge and the inclined block are in contact with each other. A sliding pin is slidably connected inside the support ring claw piece, and the sliding pin is set through the support ring claw piece. One end of the sliding pin abuts against the protrusion, and the other end of the sliding pin abuts against the inclined surface of the inclined block. An oil outlet hole is opened inside the support ring claw piece, and the position of the oil outlet hole corresponds to the position of the oil-storing sponge and the guide block. During the sliding guidance of the support ring claw piece through the guide block, the sliding pin will be retracted into the support ring claw piece by the reaction force of the protrusion, and by cooperating with the inclined surface of the inclined block, it will squeeze the oil-storing sponge and release lubricating oil, thereby reducing the wear between the support ring claw piece and the guide block, and thus ensuring the smooth extension and retraction of the support ring claw piece each time.

[0008] Preferably, a limiting block is fixedly connected to one end of the sliding pin located inside the support ring claw. The limiting block provides axial restraint for the sliding pin.

One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the guide rod, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the inclined block. The guide rod and spring provide guidance for the force-induced sliding of the inclined block.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] This utility model includes a mounting base, an adjusting base fixed to the front end of the mounting base by fastening screws, and support ring claws evenly distributed in the slots on the front end face of the fixed plate along the circumferential direction.

Under the drive of the connecting shaft and the constraint of the guide block, the support ring claws move radially, thereby realizing the expansion and contraction action of the support ring mechanism. It is applicable to steel wire rings of different diameters and has good applicability. Attached Figure Description
