Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tire transmission equipment, and more specifically to a tire blank centering device. Background Technology
[0002] As we all know, tire molding and vulcanization are crucial processes in tire manufacturing. Traditional factories rely on manual labor to transport tire blanks to the vulcanizing machine. However, with the increasing speed and automation of traditional manufacturing, in order to reduce costs and manpower, they have gradually become reliant on conveyor lines. But conveyor lines also have certain problems. For example, when the tire blank is transported to a turn, it may deviate and not be transported in the middle of the conveyor line. This may lead to the tire blank being dropped by the forks when it is transported to the vertical storage unit due to inaccurate positioning, affecting storage and delaying subsequent production. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a tire embryo centering device to prevent the tire embryo from shifting its position during transportation.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a tire centering device, comprising a horizontally arranged lower right centering claw, a lower left centering claw, an upper left centering claw, and an upper right centering claw, characterized in that the ends of the lower right centering claw, the lower left centering claw, the upper left centering claw, and the upper right centering claw are respectively fixed to the upper ends of the lower right transmission rod, the lower left transmission rod, the upper left transmission rod, and the upper right transmission rod, respectively; the lower ends of the lower right transmission rod, the lower left transmission rod, the upper left transmission rod, and the upper right transmission rod are respectively connected to one end of the lower right connecting block, the lower left connecting block, the upper left connecting block, and the upper right connecting block, respectively. The components are fixed together. The other end of the lower right connecting block is hinged to the cylinder rod end and one end of the lower right connecting rod. The other ends of the lower left connecting block, upper left connecting block, and upper right connecting block are hinged to one end of the lower left connecting rod, upper left connecting rod, and upper right connecting rod, respectively. The other ends of the lower right connecting rod, lower left connecting rod, upper left connecting rod, and upper right connecting rod are respectively hinged to the four corners of the cross disc. The lower right transmission rod and lower left transmission rod are equipped with meshing lower right gears and lower left gears. The upper left transmission rod and upper right transmission rod are equipped with meshing upper left gears and upper right gears.
[0005] The lower parts of the lower right drive rod, lower left drive rod, upper left drive rod, and upper right drive rod are respectively installed in the corresponding bushings.
[0006] The central part of the cross disc is mounted below the conveyor line via a bearing.
[0007] The beneficial effect of this utility model is that it realizes the centering and release of the tire blank, and prevents the tire blank from shifting during the transportation process, thereby reducing the risk of the tire blank falling off when the stacker crane forks pick up the tire blank.

[0011] In the figure, this utility model includes horizontally arranged lower right centering claw 1, lower left centering claw 9, upper left centering claw 10, and upper right centering claw 11. The ends of the lower right centering claw 1, lower left centering claw 9, upper left centering claw 10, and upper right centering claw 11 are respectively fixed to the upper ends of the lower right transmission rod 2, lower left transmission rod 18, upper left transmission rod 19, and upper right transmission rod 20. The lower parts of the lower right transmission rod 2, lower left transmission rod 18, upper left transmission rod 19, and upper right transmission rod 20 are respectively installed in corresponding bushings. The lower ends of the lower right transmission rod 2, lower left transmission rod 18, upper left transmission rod 19, and upper right transmission rod 20 are respectively fixed to one end of the lower right connecting block 3, lower left connecting block 21, upper left connecting block 22, and upper right connecting block 23. The other end of the lower right connecting block 3 is hinged to the end of the cylinder rod 5 of the cylinder 7 and one end of the lower right connecting rod 6. The cylinder 7 is the power source of the entire device and is connected by bolts. Mounted on the conveyor line, the other ends of the lower left connecting block 21, upper left connecting block 22, and upper right connecting block 23 are hinged to one end of the lower left connecting rod 15, upper left connecting rod 16, and upper right connecting rod 17. The other ends of the lower right connecting rod 6, lower left connecting rod 15, upper left connecting rod 16, and upper right connecting rod 17 are respectively hinged to the four corners of the cross disc 8. The middle part of the cross disc 8 is installed below the conveyor line by screws and bearings. The lower right transmission rod 2 and lower left transmission rod 18 are equipped with meshing lower right gear 4 and lower left gear 12. The upper left transmission rod 19 and upper right transmission rod 20 are equipped with meshing upper left gear 13 and upper right gear 14. The lower right gear 4, lower left gear 12, upper left gear 13, and upper right gear 14 are welded to the lower right transmission rod 2, lower left transmission rod 18, upper left transmission rod 19, and upper right transmission rod 20 to transmit force and overcome dead points.
[0012] Cylinder 7 is fixed to the conveyor line by screws, pushing cylinder rod 5 to move. Cylinder rod 5 pushes the lower right connecting block 3 to rotate. The lower right connecting block 3 is welded to the lower right transmission rod 2. The lower right connecting block 3 is pushed by cylinder rod 5 at a certain angle, causing the lower right transmission rod 2 to rotate. The rotational motion of the lower right transmission rod 2 is converted into the clamping motion of the lower right centering jaw 1. At this time, the lower right centering jaw 1 is in the clamping position. The lower right gear 4 is welded to the lower right transmission rod 2. Because cylinder rod 5 pushes the lower right connecting block 3 to move, the lower right transmission rod 2 rotates, causing the lower right gear 4 to start rotating. The lower left gear 12 meshes with the lower right gear 4 to transmit torque. At this time, driven by the force, the lower left centering jaw 9 is rotated from the tensioned position to the clamping position. Because the lower right connecting rod 6 and the lower right connecting block 3 are hinged together by bolts, and the lower right connecting block 3 starts to rotate under the push of the cylinder rod 5, the lower right connecting rod 6 is pulled and begins to move in the direction of the pull. The other end of the lower right connecting rod 6 is hinged to the cross plate 8 by screws. The cross plate 8 is subjected to tension and rotates at a certain angle. The upper left connecting rod 16 and the upper right connecting rod 17 are pulled a certain distance by the cross plate 8. The upper left centering jaw 10 and the upper right centering jaw 11 start to clamp from the open position to the clamped position. Because the cross disc 8 rotates and pulls the upper left connecting rod 16 and the upper right connecting rod 17 in reciprocating motion, there is a dead point position, which may cause the upper left connecting rod 16 and the upper right connecting rod 17 to jam with the cross disc 8. Therefore, the upper left transmission rod 19 and the upper right transmission rod 20 also need the upper left gear 13 and the upper right gear 14 to mesh and transmit torque to each other, so that the lower right centering jaw 1, the lower left centering jaw 9, the upper left centering jaw 10, and the upper right centering jaw 11 can open and clamp synchronously.
