Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tire production technology, and more specifically, to a tire vulcanization equipment and vulcanization device. Background Technology

[0002] In tire production, tires need to be vulcanized. This vulcanization process requires a vulcanizing machine to vulcanize the rubber compound. An extruder is used to add the rubber compound to the vulcanizing machine under pressure. During vulcanization, the extruder needs to be kept away from the vulcanizing machine to avoid interference between the two devices. Furthermore, the process of adding rubber compound to the extruder involves pressure, and interaction forces are generated between the extruder and the vulcanizing machine, which can affect the feeding speed of the extruder. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main objective of this invention is to provide a tire vulcanization equipment and vulcanization device to solve the problem in the prior art where the interaction force between the extruder and the vulcanizing machine affects the feeding of the extruder.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, according to one aspect of the present invention, a tire vulcanizing apparatus is provided, comprising a vulcanizing machine having a vulcanizing chamber for vulcanizing tires, the vulcanizing chamber having a rubber inlet; an extruder having a movable extrusion outlet, the extrusion outlet being able to be connected and separated from the rubber inlet; and a locking device disposed between the vulcanizing machine and the extruder, wherein when the rubber inlet and the extrusion outlet are connected, the locking device is engaged and locked to maintain a stable relative position between the vulcanizing machine and the extruder.

[0005] Furthermore, the locking device includes a first locking member and a second locking member, one of which is disposed on a vulcanizing machine, and the other of which is disposed on an extruder. The second locking member has a movement along a first direction and a movement along a second direction relative to the first locking member. When the second locking member moves along the first direction, it approaches the first locking member, and when the second locking member moves along the second direction, it locks into the first locking member.

[0006] Furthermore, the first direction is the direction in which the extruder approaches the vulcanizing machine, and the second direction is a straight line that is at an angle to the first direction, or the second direction is a circumferential direction around the first direction.

[0007] Furthermore, the second direction is a straight line and is angled to the first direction. The first locking member has a groove, which includes an expanding section and a constricted section connected in sequence. The second locking member has a protrusion, which includes a large-diameter section and a small-diameter section connected in sequence. When the extruder moves along the first direction to the rubber inlet and the extrusion outlet, the expanding section and the large-diameter section are aligned along the second direction. The first locking member and / or the second locking member move along the second direction, the large-diameter section extends into the expanding section, the small-diameter section extends into the constricted section, and the step surface between the expanding section and the constricted section abuts against the large-diameter section.

[0008] Furthermore, along the first direction, the small-diameter section and the large-diameter section are arranged in sequence, and the necking section and the expanding section are arranged in sequence.

[0009] Furthermore, the vulcanizing machine or extruder includes a drive assembly and a movable plate, the movable plate being movably disposed, a first locking member or a second locking member being disposed on the movable plate, the drive assembly being drivenly connected to the movable plate, and driving the first locking member or the second locking member to move along a first direction and a second direction via the movable plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes multiple drive components that drive the movable plate to move along a first direction and a second direction.

[0011] Furthermore, the tire vulcanizing equipment also includes a guide assembly, which is disposed between the vulcanizing machine and the extruder. The guide assembly includes a guide post and a guide hole, one of which is disposed on the vulcanizing machine and the other of which is disposed on the extruder. The guide post passes through the guide hole.

[0012] Furthermore, there are multiple guide posts and guide holes, with each guide post being parallel to the others and the axes of each guide hole being parallel to each other.

[0013] According to another aspect of the present invention, a vulcanization apparatus is provided, including the above-described tire vulcanization equipment.

[0014] By applying the technical solution of this utility model, the following technical effects are achieved:

[0015] During the use of a vulcanizing machine, the rubber inlet of the vulcanizing machine needs to be aligned with the extrusion outlet of the extruder to ensure that the rubber material can stably enter the vulcanizing machine from the extruder. During the rubber material addition process, relative forces will be generated between the extruder and the vulcanizing machine. In order to ensure the stability of rubber material addition, a locking device is installed between the extruder and the vulcanizing machine to keep the vulcanizing machine and the extruder in a relatively stable state during the rubber material addition process, thus ensuring the stability of rubber material addition.

[0020] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0022] In this utility model, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "top," and "bottom" are generally used in relation to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or in relation to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction of the component itself; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not used to limit this utility model.

[0023] To address the problem of the interaction force between the extruder and the vulcanizing machine affecting the extruder feeding in existing technologies, this application provides a tire vulcanizing equipment and apparatus.

[0024] See Figure 1 The tire vulcanizing equipment includes a vulcanizing machine 10, an extruder 20, and a locking device 30. The vulcanizing machine 10 has a vulcanizing chamber for vulcanizing tires, and the vulcanizing chamber has a rubber inlet. The extruder 20 has a movable extrusion outlet, which can be connected and separated from the rubber inlet. The locking device 30 is disposed between the vulcanizing machine 10 and the extruder 20. When the rubber inlet is connected to the extrusion outlet, the locking device 30 is engaged and locked to keep the relative position of the vulcanizing machine 10 and the extruder 20 stable.

[0025] During the use of the vulcanizing machine 10, the rubber material inlet of the vulcanizing machine 10 needs to be aligned with the extrusion outlet of the extruder 20 to ensure that the rubber material can stably enter the vulcanizing machine 10 from the extruder 20. During the rubber material addition process, relative forces will be generated between the extruder 20 and the vulcanizing machine 10. In order to ensure the stability of the rubber material addition, a locking device 30 is set between the extruder 20 and the vulcanizing machine 10 to keep the vulcanizing machine 10 and the extruder 20 in a relatively stable state during the rubber material addition process, thus ensuring the stability of the rubber material addition.

[0026] When an extruder 20 needs to cooperate with multiple vulcanizing machines 10, the extruder 20 needs to be moved to different positions to cooperate with different vulcanizing machines 10. The locking device 30 can also be used to position the extruder 20, thereby increasing the stability of the rubber compound addition.

[0027] In this application, the locking device 30 includes a first locking member 31 and a second locking member 32. One of the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 is disposed on the vulcanizing machine 10, and the other of the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 is disposed on the extruder 20. The second locking member 32 has a movement along a first direction and a movement along a second direction relative to the first locking member 31. When the second locking member 32 moves along the first direction, it approaches the first locking member 31. When the second locking member 32 moves along the second direction, it locks and engages with the first locking member 31.

[0028] In this application, the first direction is the direction of the extruder 20 close to the vulcanizing machine 10, and the second direction is a straight line direction that is at an angle to the first direction, or the second direction is a circumferential direction around the first direction.

[0029] Specifically, during use, the relative positions of the vulcanizing machine 10 and the extruder 20 are locked through the mutual cooperation between the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 respectively installed on the extruder 20 and the vulcanizing machine 10. The first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 are mutually locked through movement in a first direction and a second direction.

[0030] In this design, the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 are respectively a slot and a plug. Movement in the first and second directions allows the slot to be inserted into the plug, thus locking the plug and the slot together. Alternatively, the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 can be connected by threads. By bringing the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 closer together and rotating them, they are screwed together to achieve locking.

[0031] In this application, the second direction is a straight line and is set at an angle to the first direction. The first locking member 31 has a groove, which includes an expanding section and a constricted section connected in sequence. The second locking member 32 has a protrusion, which includes a large diameter section and a small diameter section connected in sequence. When the extruder 20 moves along the first direction to the rubber inlet and the extrusion outlet, the expanding section and the large diameter section are aligned along the second direction. The first locking member 31 and / or the second locking member 32 move along the second direction, the large diameter section extends into the expanding section, the small diameter section extends into the constricted section, and the step surface between the expanding section and the constricted section abuts against the large diameter section.

[0032] In this application, along the first direction, the small diameter section and the large diameter section are arranged in sequence, and the necking section and the widening section are arranged in sequence.

[0033] Specifically, by setting the large-diameter section in a way that prevents it from passing through the necked section in the first direction, when the protrusion and the slide groove cooperate, the protrusion cannot disengage from the slide groove, thereby achieving the locking of the locking assembly. Furthermore, since the large-diameter section cannot pass through the necked section, it needs to be inserted into the expanded section from the side. Therefore, the cooperation between the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 needs to be achieved through movement in the first and second directions.

[0034] In this application, the vulcanizing machine 10 or the extruder 20 includes a drive assembly and a movable plate 40. The movable plate 40 is movably disposed, and a first locking member 31 or a second locking member 32 is disposed on the movable plate 40. The drive assembly is drivenly connected to the movable plate 40 and drives the first locking member 31 or the second locking member 32 to move along a first direction and a second direction through the movable plate 40.

[0035] Specifically, by mounting the first locking member 31 or the second locking member 32 on the movable plate 40 and driving the movable plate 40 to move via the driving member 41, the relative movement between the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 is facilitated. Furthermore, if there are multiple first locking members 31 and multiple second locking members 32, the movable plate 40 can simultaneously drive each first locking member 31 or second locking member 32 to move, facilitating the simultaneous locking of multiple locking members and second locking members 32.

[0036] In this application, the driving assembly includes a plurality of driving elements 41, which respectively drive the movable plate 40 to move along a first direction and a second direction.

[0037] Specifically, since the movable plate 40 needs to move along the first direction and the second direction, the drive assembly needs to include multiple different drive components 41 to drive the movable plate 40 to move along the first direction and the second direction respectively.

[0038] In this application, the tire vulcanizing equipment also includes a guide assembly 50, which is disposed between the vulcanizing machine 10 and the extruder 20. The guide assembly 50 includes a guide post and a guide hole. One of the guide post and the guide hole is disposed on the vulcanizing machine 10, and the other of the guide post and the guide hole is disposed on the extruder 20. The guide post passes through the guide hole.

[0039] Specifically, the cooperation of the guide post and the guide hole can limit the relative movement between the extruder 20 and the vulcanizing machine 10, thereby increasing the stability of the relative movement between the extruder 20 and the vulcanizing machine 10.

[0040] In this application, there are multiple guide posts and guide holes, with each guide post being parallel to the others and the axes of each guide hole being parallel to each other.

[0041] Specifically, by setting multiple guide pillars, the stability of the relative movement between the foundation and the vulcanizing machine 10 can be further increased.

[0042] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects:

[0043] 1. During the use of vulcanizing machine 10, the rubber material inlet of vulcanizing machine 10 needs to be aligned with the extrusion outlet of extruder 20 to ensure that the rubber material can stably enter vulcanizing machine 10 from extruder 20. During the rubber material addition process, relative forces will be generated between extruder 20 and vulcanizing machine 10. In order to ensure the stability of rubber material addition, a locking device 30 is set between extruder 20 and vulcanizing machine 10 to keep vulcanizing machine 10 and extruder 20 in a relatively stable state during the rubber material addition process, thus ensuring the stability of rubber material addition.

[0044] 2. By mounting the first locking member 31 or the second locking member 32 on the movable plate 40 and driving the movable plate 40 to move via the driving member 41, the relative movement between the first locking member 31 and the second locking member 32 is facilitated. Furthermore, if there are multiple first locking members 31 and multiple second locking members 32, the movable plate 40 can simultaneously drive each first locking member 31 or second locking member 32 to move, facilitating the simultaneous locking of multiple locking members and second locking members 32.

[0045] 3. By cooperating with the guide post and guide hole, the relative movement between the extruder 20 and the vulcanizing machine 10 can be limited, thereby increasing the stability of the relative movement between the extruder 20 and the vulcanizing machine 10.
