Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tire processing technology, and more specifically, to a steel rim supply device and a tire bead forming system. Background Technology

[0002] In current tire forming processes, a combination of steel rim gripping devices and placement areas is often used to pick up, place, and buffer steel rims. This multi-stage steel rim supply process reduces tire forming efficiency. Furthermore, the unisolated stacking of steel rims in the placement area causes wear, and steel rims that cannot be peeled off can cause difficulties in material retrieval, leading to congestion in the entire tire forming process and consequently reducing the quality and efficiency of the entire tire forming work. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main objective of this invention is to provide a steel rim supply device and a tire bead forming system to solve the problems of difficult steel rim handling and buffering in the prior art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, according to one aspect of the present invention, a steel ring supply device is provided, comprising: a frame; a rotating part rotatably connected to the frame; and a plurality of extending arms disposed on the circumferential side of the rotating part and rotating synchronously with the rotating part. Each extending arm is spaced apart circumferentially along the rotating part. The extending arm has a pickup station, a buffer station, and a supply station arranged sequentially in the circumferential direction. When the extending arm is located at the pickup station, it cooperates with an external steel ring pickup device, which stores the steel ring on the extending arm of the pickup station. When the extending arm is located at the supply station, it cooperates with an external steel ring gripping device, which removes the steel ring from the extending arm of the supply station.

[0005] Furthermore, the steel ring supply device also includes a conveying assembly, at least a portion of which is disposed on the extension arm and extends along the length of the extension arm. The conveying assembly has multiple storage positions, which are spaced apart along the length of the extension arm.

[0006] Furthermore, the conveying assembly includes a conveying rack, which is mounted on the extended arm, and the grooves of the conveying rack serve as storage positions.

[0007] Furthermore, the conveying rack is rotatably mounted on the extended arm, and the conveying assembly also includes a conveying drive component. The conveying drive component is driven to cooperate with the conveying rack and drives the conveying rack to rotate. The conveying rack moves along the length direction of the extended arm and conveys the steel ring to the end of the extended arm.

[0008] Furthermore, the conveying assembly also includes a drive wheel, which is driven by the conveying rack. The conveying drive is movably disposed relative to the drive wheel and has a drive position that is driven by the drive wheel and a disengagement position that is disengaged from the drive wheel. When the conveying drive is in the drive position, it drives the conveying rack to rotate through the drive wheel.

[0009] Furthermore, the conveying assembly also includes a drive wheel and a clutch wheel. The drive wheel is driven by the conveying rack, and the clutch wheel is disposed between the drive wheel and the conveying drive component. The clutch wheel is movable relative to the frame and has a disengaged position that is separated from the drive wheel and / or the conveying drive component, and a driven position that is driven by both the drive wheel and the conveying drive component. When the clutch wheel is in the driven position, the conveying drive component drives the conveying rack to rotate through the clutch wheel and the drive wheel.

[0010] Furthermore, the rotating part includes: a rotating drive component connected to the frame; a rotating mounting plate driven by the output shaft of the rotating drive component, the rotating drive component driving the rotating mounting plate to rotate, and an extension arm connected to the circumferential side of the rotating mounting plate; and a fixed sleeve connected to the frame and sleeved on the outside of the output shaft.

[0011] Furthermore, the extendable arms are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the rotating part, and the extendable arms extend radially along the rotating part.

[0012] Furthermore, the extendable arm has multiple storage slots for storing steel rings, with each storage slot spaced apart along the length of the extendable arm.

[0013] According to another aspect of the present invention, a bead forming system is provided, including a bead picking device, a bead gripping device, and the aforementioned bead supply device. The bead supply device is disposed between the bead picking device and the bead gripping device. The bead picking device stores the bead onto the extended arm of the bead supply device, and the bead gripping device removes the bead from the extended arm of the bead supply device.

[0014] By applying the technical solution of this utility model, multiple extendable arms are spaced apart on the circumferential side of the rotating part, and a pickup station, a buffer station, and a supply station are arranged sequentially in the circumferential direction. This allows the extendable arms to rotate and move sequentially to the pickup station, buffer station, and supply station. The extendable arm that reaches the pickup station cooperates with an external steel ring pickup device to pick up and place the steel ring onto the extendable arm. After a sufficient number of steel rings have been placed on the extendable arm, it rotates to the buffer station to wait for the supply station to release. After the supply station is released, the extendable arm rotates from the buffer station to the supply station to cooperate with an external steel ring gripping device, which removes the steel ring from the extendable arm. The buffer station integrates the steel ring buffer area into the steel ring supply device. Through the cooperation of the extendable arms at the pickup station, buffer station, and supply station with the steel ring pickup device and steel ring gripping device, the problems of difficult steel ring picking, placing, and buffering are solved.

[0024] 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.

[0025] 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.

[0026] To address the difficulties in handling and buffering steel rims in existing technologies, this invention provides a steel rim supply device, a tire bead forming system, and a steel rim supply method.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 5 The illustrated steel ring supply device includes a frame 10, a rotating part 20, and multiple extendable arms 30. The rotating part 20 is rotatably connected to the frame 10. The extendable arms 30 are disposed on the circumferential side of the rotating part 20 and rotate synchronously with the rotating part 20. Each extendable arm 30 is spaced apart circumferentially along the rotating part 20. Each extendable arm 30 has a pickup station, a buffer station, and a supply station arranged sequentially in the circumferential direction. When the extendable arm 30 is located at the pickup station, it cooperates with an external steel ring pickup device 50, which stores the steel ring on the extendable arm 30 at the pickup station. When the extendable arm 30 is located at the supply station, it cooperates with an external steel ring gripping device 60, which removes the steel ring from the extendable arm 30 at the supply station.

[0028] like Figure 1As shown, this embodiment provides multiple extendable arms 30 spaced apart on the circumferential side of the rotating part 20, and arranges a pickup station, a buffer station, and a supply station in a circumferential sequence. This allows the extendable arms 30 to rotate and move sequentially to the pickup station, buffer station, and supply station. The extendable arm 30 at the pickup station cooperates with the external steel ring pickup device 50 to pick up and place the steel ring onto the extendable arm 30. After a sufficient number of steel rings are placed on the extendable arm 30, the extendable arm 30 rotates to the buffer station to wait for the supply station to release. After the supply station is released, the extendable arm 30 rotates from the buffer station to the supply station to cooperate with the external steel ring gripping device 60, which removes the steel ring from the extendable arm 30. The buffer station integrates the steel ring buffer area into the steel ring supply device. Through the cooperation of the extendable arm 30 with the steel ring pickup device 50 and the steel ring gripping device 60 at the pickup station, buffer station, and supply station, the problem of difficult steel ring picking, placing, and buffering is solved.

[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the steel ring supply device in this embodiment also includes a conveying component 40. At least a portion of the conveying component 40 is disposed on the extension arm 30 and extends along the length direction of the extension arm 30. The conveying component 40 has multiple storage positions, which can hold steel rings. Each storage position is spaced apart along the length direction of the extension arm 30. Steel rings can be placed at intervals in the storage positions to avoid problems such as steel ring wear and difficulty in material retrieval caused by improper stacking, thus ensuring the storage quality and retrieval efficiency of steel rings.

[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the conveying assembly 40 in this embodiment includes a conveying rack 41, which is mounted on the extension arm 30. The extension arm 30 is composed of two long rectangular structures, which increases the force-bearing area of ​​the extension arm 30 and facilitates better storage and conveying of steel rings. Each rectangular structure has a conveying rack 41 mounted on its upper surface. The conveying rack 41 is fitted onto the extension arm 30, extending laterally and standing vertically, thus forming a two-layer structure. The grooves of the conveying rack 41 face outwards from the extension arm 30, allowing these grooves to serve as storage positions for steel rings. This also allows for spacing between steel rings while storing them, ensuring both storage quality and efficient retrieval. Alternatively, the upper surface of the extension arm 30 can be made flat, with different positions on the flat surface serving as storage positions. A steel ring picking device can then place the steel rings at these different positions on the extension arm 30, achieving spaced placement of the steel rings at the storage positions.

[0031] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, in this embodiment, the conveying rack 41 is rotatably mounted on the extension arm 30. The conveying assembly 40 also includes a conveying drive 42, which can be a motor, cylinder, or other components. The conveying drive 42 drives the conveying rack 41 and rotates it. The conveying rack 41 moves along the length of the extension arm 30 and conveys the steel ring to the end of the extension arm 30. When the steel ring is in the picking position, the steel ring picking device 50 places the steel ring at the end of the extension arm 30, and the conveying rack 41 moves the steel ring toward the rotating part 20, facilitating the placement of other steel rings. When the steel ring is in the supply position, the conveying rack 41 moves away from the rotating part 20, and the steel ring moves to the end of the extension arm 30 near the steel ring gripping device 60, making it easier for the steel ring gripping device 60 to pick it up. The steel ring that has been moved to the end of the extension arm 30 is easier to place and pick up, improving the efficiency of steel ring picking and placing. It should be noted that the movement of the conveying rack 41 can be unidirectional or bidirectional. When unidirectional movement is used, only one of the above-mentioned cooperating pickup station and cooperating supply station can be used. In this case, the cooperating supply station is preferred to ensure a stable supply of steel rings. When bidirectional movement is used, the above-mentioned cooperating pickup station and cooperating supply station can be used simultaneously. That is, the conveying rack 41 can rotate in both directions, so that the steel rings can be conveyed from the end to the center or from the center to the end.

[0032] Of course, the conveying rack 41 can also be omitted. In an embodiment not shown, the extension arm 30 has multiple storage slots for storing steel rings, with each slot spaced apart along the length of the extension arm 30. The steel rings can be stored on the extension arm 30 at intervals, avoiding problems such as wear and tear and difficulty in retrieval caused by improper stacking, thus ensuring the storage quality and retrieval efficiency of the steel rings. Alternatively, although a conveying rack 41 is used, the conveying rack 41 itself cannot rotate. In this case, the grooves of the conveying rack 41 can also serve the function of the storage slots in the embodiment not shown above.

[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the conveying assembly 40 in this embodiment also includes a transmission wheel 43 and multiple rotating wheels. The transmission wheel 43 and two rotating wheels are located at the center of the extended arm 30, and two rotating wheels are located at the ends. Each conveying rack 41 is respectively fitted onto the two rotating wheels at the center and the two rotating wheels at the ends, thus achieving the installation of the conveying rack 41. At the center, the transmission wheel 43 is simultaneously connected to the two rotating wheels via an intermediate shaft. Since the conveying racks 41 are respectively fitted onto the two rotating wheels on both sides, at the center, the transmission wheel 43 simultaneously engages with the two conveying racks 41 on the extended arm 30 via the two rotating wheels on both sides. Thus, the transmission engagement between the conveying drive component 42 and the transmission wheel 43 achieves the engagement with the two conveying racks 41, realizing the effect of driving the two conveying racks 41 to move synchronously.

[0034] In this embodiment, the conveying drive component 42 and the transmission wheel 43 are configured with a clutch, meaning that they can be driven to engage and disengage. This ensures that the conveying drive component 42 will only drive the conveying rack 41 to rotate at predetermined times, and will not drive the conveying rack 41 to rotate at other times.

[0035] Specifically, in this embodiment, the conveying drive component 42 is movably arranged relative to the transmission wheel 43, and has a transmission position that is in transmission cooperation with the transmission wheel 43 and a separation position that is separate from the transmission wheel 43. When the conveying drive component 42 is in the separation position, the output wheel of the conveying drive component 42 is separated from the transmission wheel 43, and there is no transmission relationship between the two. The transmission wheel 43 and the rotating wheel are synchronously stationary. When the conveying drive component 42 is in the transmission position, the output wheel of the conveying drive component 42 is in contact with the transmission wheel 43, so that the conveying drive component 42 can drive the transmission wheel 43 to rotate. The transmission wheel 43 drives the two rotating wheels to rotate synchronously. The rotating wheels drive the two conveying racks 41 to rotate. The rotating conveying racks 41 drive the steel ring placed on them to move to the end of the extension arm 30, making it easier to place and take out the steel ring and improving the efficiency of steel ring placement and removal.

[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the rotating part 20 in this embodiment includes a mounting plate 44 and a moving drive component 45. The conveying drive component 42 is mounted on the mounting plate 44. The mounting plate 44 is vertically and vertically movable relative to the frame 10, so that when the mounting plate 44 moves up and down, it can drive the conveying drive component 42 to move up and down, thereby realizing the drive engagement and disengagement between the conveying drive component 42 and the transmission wheel 43. The moving drive component 45 can be a component such as a cylinder, which is mounted on the frame 10 and drivenly connected to the mounting plate 44. The moving drive component 45 can drive the mounting plate 44 to move up and down, thereby changing the engagement and disengagement relationship between the conveying drive component 42 and the transmission wheel 43, realizing the effect of rotating and stationary conveying rack 41, making it easier to place and remove steel rings, and improving the efficiency of steel ring placement and removal.

[0037] Besides the aforementioned method of movably arranging the conveyor drive 42 relative to the transmission wheel 43, other methods can also be used to achieve the engagement and disengagement between the two. In an embodiment not shown, the conveyor assembly 40 further includes a clutch wheel, which is disposed between the transmission wheel 43 and the conveyor drive 42. The clutch wheel is movably arranged relative to the frame 10 and has a separation position where it is separated from the transmission wheel 43 and / or the conveyor drive 42, and a transmission position where it is engaged with both the transmission wheel 43 and the conveyor drive 42. In this way, by moving the clutch wheel, its transmission engagement relationship with the transmission wheel 43 and the conveyor drive 42 is changed, thereby achieving the engagement and disengagement between the conveyor drive 42 and the transmission wheel 43. When the clutch wheel is in the transmission position, it meshes with the transmission wheel 43 and the output wheel of the conveying drive 42, forming a transmission connection. The conveying drive 42 drives the transmission wheel 43 to rotate via the clutch wheel. The two rotating wheels rotate synchronously with the transmission wheel 43, which in turn drives the conveying rack 41 to rotate. This causes the conveying rack 41 to move the steel ring placed on it to the end of the extension arm 30, making it easier to place and remove the steel ring and improving the efficiency of placing and removing the steel ring. When the clutch wheel is in the disengagement position, it moves and disengages from at least one of the transmission wheel 43 and the output wheel of the conveying drive 42. At this time, the driving force of the conveying drive 42 cannot be transmitted to the transmission wheel through the clutch wheel, thus preventing the conveying rack 41 from rotating.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, the rotating part 20 in this embodiment includes: a rotating drive component 21, a rotating mounting plate 22, and a fixing sleeve 23. The rotating drive component 21 is connected to the frame 10 and can be a motor, cylinder, or other components. The rotating mounting plate 22 is driven by the output shaft of the rotating drive component 21. In this embodiment, the rotating mounting plate 22 is arranged horizontally, and the extension arm 30 is connected to the circumferential side of the rotating mounting plate 22. The extension arm 30 can rotate synchronously with the rotating mounting plate 22, sequentially reaching the pickup station, the buffer station, and the supply station to store and place steel rings. The output shaft of the rotating drive component 21 is arranged vertically. The rotating drive component 21 is located below the rotating mounting plate 22, and the rotating mounting plate 22 is located at the top of the output shaft of the rotating drive component 21, so that the rotating drive component 21 can be mounted on the frame 10 and drive the rotating mounting plate 22 to rotate. The fixing sleeve 23 is connected to the frame 10 and is sleeved on the outside of the output shaft. The fixing sleeve 23 provides a certain degree of protection for the output shaft and extends the service life of the equipment. In this embodiment, there is a movable space between the top of the frame 10 and the rotating mounting plate 22, that is, the rotating mounting plate 22 is located above the frame 10, and the output shaft of the rotating drive 21 passes through the space between the frame 10 and the rotating mounting plate 22. The fixing sleeve 23 is also set in this space, thereby playing a certain supporting role.

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the extendable arms 30 are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the rotating part 20. After a certain number of steel rings are placed on the extendable arms 30, they have a certain weight. The equal intervals along the circumference of the rotating part 20 ensure that the entire steel ring supply device is balanced, preventing tilting or tipping of the steel ring supply device from hindering the steel ring picking device 50 and the steel ring gripping device 60 from smoothly picking up and placing the steel rings, thus ensuring smooth steel ring handling. Furthermore, the extendable arms 30 extend radially along the rotating part 20 without tilting or turning, allowing for better coordination with the steel ring picking device 50 and the steel ring gripping device 60 for smooth steel ring handling. Moreover, the equal interval arrangement allows for simultaneous presence of the extendable arms 30 at both the picking and supplying stations, enabling simultaneous storage and retrieval of steel rings and improving efficiency.

[0040] Taking the setting of three extension arms 30 as an example, the three extension arms 30 are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the rotating part 20, with a 120° interval between every two extension arms 30. The pickup station, buffer station and supply station corresponding to the extension arms 30 are also spaced at 120° intervals. Every time the rotating part 20 rotates 120°, the three extension arms 30 simultaneously change stations, so that the three extension arms 30 work in a cycle between the three stations, realizing the synchronous placement, buffering and retrieval of steel rings, and further improving the efficiency of steel ring picking and placing.

[0041] This embodiment also provides a tire bead forming system including a tire bead picking device 50, a tire bead gripping device 60, and the aforementioned tire bead supply device. The tire bead supply device is disposed between the tire bead picking device 50 and the tire bead gripping device 60. When the extension arm 30 of the tire bead supply device rotates to the picking position, the tire bead picking device 50 places the tire bead onto the extension arm 30 of the tire bead supply device. When the extension arm 30 of the tire bead supply device rotates to the supply position, the tire bead gripping device 60 removes the tire bead from the extension arm 30 of the tire bead supply device. The three devices cooperate with each other to realize the picking and placing of tire bead, ensuring the storage quality and picking and placing efficiency of tire bead.

[0042] This embodiment also provides a steel ring supply method using the aforementioned steel ring supply device. The steel ring supply method includes: rotating the rotating part 20, driving the extension arms 30 to rotate synchronously, so that one extension arm 30 moves to the pickup station; the rotating part 20 stops rotating; the steel ring pickup device 50 stores the steel ring on the extension arm 30 located at the pickup station; after the steel ring is stored, the rotating part 20 continues to rotate; the extension arm 30 storing the steel ring moves to the buffer station; and the next extension arm 30 moves to the pickup station; the rotating part 20 rotates, driving the extension arms... The 30 rotates synchronously, causing one of the extension arms 30 to move to the supply station. The rotating part 20 stops rotating, and the steel ring gripping device 60 takes out the steel ring stored on the extension arm 30 at the pick-up station. After the steel ring is taken out, the rotating part 20 continues to rotate, and the extension arm 30 at the buffer station moves to the supply station. This enables the extension arm 30 to work cyclically at the pick-up station, buffer station, and supply station. By setting up a buffer station, the steel ring buffer area is integrated into the steel ring supply device, solving the problem of difficult steel ring picking and placing and buffering, and improving the efficiency of steel ring picking and placing.

[0043] The steel ring supply method of this embodiment further includes: while one extension arm 30 moves to the picking station, the other extension arm 30 moves to the supply station. The steel ring picking device 50 and the steel ring gripping device 60 operate simultaneously to store and retrieve the steel ring. After the storage and retrieval of the steel ring is completed, the rotating part 20 rotates and drives the two extension arms 30 to move to the next station simultaneously to continue storing and retrieving the steel ring, further improving the efficiency of steel ring retrieval and placement.

[0044] In this embodiment, when the extendable arm 30 moves to the supply station, the conveying drive 42 and the conveying rack 41 engage in a driving engagement. At this time, the conveying drive 42 drives the conveying rack 41 to rotate, and the conveying rack 41 drives the steel ring to move towards the end of the extendable arm 30, making it easier to place and remove the steel ring and improving the efficiency of steel ring placement and removal. Before and after the extendable arm 30 moves to the supply station, the conveying drive 42 and the conveying rack 41 disengage, and the conveying drive 42 and the conveying rack 41 remain synchronously stationary. Of course, the conveying drive 42 and the conveying rack 41 can also maintain a driving engagement at all times, but when the extendable arm 30 is not in the predetermined station, the conveying drive 42 does not move and does not drive the rotation of the conveying rack 41.

[0045] It should be noted that "multiple" in the above embodiments refers to at least two.

[0047] 1. Solves the problems of difficult steel ring placement and buffering in existing technologies;

[0048] 2. By setting up storage positions on the conveying components, problems such as steel ring wear and difficulty in material retrieval caused by improper stacking of steel rings are avoided, thus ensuring the storage quality and retrieval efficiency of steel rings;

[0049] 3. The conveying rack can move the steel ring to the end of the extension arm, making it easier to place and remove the steel ring, thus improving the efficiency of steel ring placement and removal.

[0050] 4. The rotating part drives multiple extension arms to rotate, so that the extension arms work in a cycle between each station, realizing the synchronous placement, buffering and retrieval of steel rings, and further improving the efficiency of steel ring placement and retrieval.

[0051] 5. The clutch engagement between the conveyor drive and the transmission wheel enables the conveyor rack to rotate and stand still, making it easier to place and remove the steel rings and improving the efficiency of steel ring placement and removal.

[0052] 6. The steel ring buffering and placement are achieved through the coordinated operation of the steel ring pickup device, steel ring gripping device, and steel ring supply device.
