Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tire assembly for heavy-duty wide-body mining dump trucks, particularly the pressing of tire outer flanges. Background Technology
[0002] For heavy-duty wide-body mining dump trucks, the wheel rim assembly consists of three parts: the wheel rim body, the locking ring, and the outer rim. When the tires are installed separately, the outer rim must be pressed down before the locking ring is installed. Previously, manual pressing was used on the ground.
[0003] Specifically, the manual pressing method used for tire assembly on heavy-duty wide-body mining dump trucks has the following shortcomings: (1) The workers' labor intensity is high; (2) It is difficult to operate by a single person and requires the cooperation of others; (3) Long installation time. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application provides a tire outer flange pressing device to improve the installation efficiency of the outer flange and reduce the intensity of manual labor.
[0005] This application provides a tire outer flange pressing device, including: The machine frame is equipped with a press-fitting station; The drive unit is mounted on the frame; A press, connected to the drive unit, the drive unit being used to drive the press to move vertically, the press including: a press head, the press head being used to apply pressure to the outer rim; A mobile device is provided in the pressing station, which can move in and out of the pressing station.
[0006] The beneficial effects of the above embodiments are as follows: the tire is transported to the pressing station by the moving device, and the press is driven by the drive component to move downward. The press presses down the outer rim to expose the structure in the rim body where the locking ring is installed, thereby facilitating the installation of the locking ring. Therefore, this pressing device facilitates the movement of the tire and the pressing down of the rim, improving the convenience of locking ring installation, reducing manual labor intensity, and improving work efficiency. In addition, the entire mechanism has a simple structure, small footprint, and low cost.
[0007] Based on the above embodiments, the embodiments of this application can be further improved as follows: In one embodiment of this application, the frame is a gantry structure. The advantage of this step is that the press can be installed at the crossbeam, facilitating the movement of the device into and out of the gantry.
[0008] In one embodiment of this application, a guiding mechanism is further included, which is disposed on the frame, and the press is slidably disposed in the guiding mechanism. The beneficial effects of this step are: on the one hand, to prevent the moving structure of the drive component from being subjected to radial force, and on the other hand, to ensure that the outer rim is subjected to vertical pressure.
[0009] In one embodiment of this application: the guiding mechanism includes: guide tubes and connecting strips. There are two guide tubes spaced vertically apart. The connecting strip connects the two guide tubes. The press is slidably inserted between the guide tubes. The beneficial effects of this step are: the guide tubes and connecting strips form a sliding zone, creating a limiting structure for the press, ensuring the press moves vertically in a straight line, improving the stability of the press's movement, and the connecting strip increases the structural strength.
[0010] In one embodiment of this application: the press includes: a frame structure, a reinforcing plate, and a connecting strip. The reinforcing plate is connected to the frame structure, and the connecting strip is connected to the lower end of the reinforcing plate. The pressure head is mounted on the connecting strip. The beneficial effect of this step is that the reinforcing plate forms a reinforcing structure within the frame structure, thereby improving the rigidity of the press structure.
[0011] In one embodiment of this application: the connecting strip has multiple mounting holes along the length of the plate, and the mounting holes are used to mount pressure heads. The beneficial effect of this step is that the spacing between the pressure heads can be adjusted by using mounting holes at different positions, thereby adapting to different outer rims.
[0012] In one embodiment of this application, there are two pressure heads symmetrically arranged on both sides of the press. The advantage of this step is that by applying pressure to the outer rim simultaneously with the two pressure heads, it is easier to press the outer rim into the rim body.
[0013] In one embodiment of this application: a pressure plate is disposed at the bottom of the pressure head, the pressure plate comprising a flat plate and an inclined plate, the flat plate being used to contact the side of the outer rim, and the inclined plate being used to insert into the inner side of the outer rim. The beneficial effect of this step is that by inserting two inclined plates into the inner side of the outer rim, the outer rim can be quickly positioned in the pressing position, facilitating the application of pressure at symmetrical points of the same diameter on the outer rim.
[0014] In one embodiment of this application: the moving device is equipped with protrusions, and there are multiple protrusions, which are used to insert into the inner side of the rim body. The beneficial effect of this step is that the rim body is positioned by the protrusions, thereby positioning the tire on the moving device.
[0015] In one embodiment of this application: the mobile device is equipped with a handle and rollers, the rollers being braked rollers. The advantages of this step are: the handle facilitates driving the mobile device, and the rollers facilitate movement and positioning of the mobile device on the ground. Attached Figure Description

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, a tire outer flange pressing device includes: a frame 1, a drive unit 2, a press 3, and a moving device 4. The frame 1 is equipped with a pressing station. The drive unit 2 is installed on the frame 1. The press 3 is connected to the drive unit 2. The drive unit 2 is used to drive the press 3 to move vertically. The press 3 includes: a pressing head 301, which is used to apply pressure to the outer flange. The moving device 4 is set in the pressing station and can move in and out of the pressing station.
[0022] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1As shown, the frame 1 is a gantry structure. Specifically, the frame structure 302 includes: columns and beams. The columns are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the beams, forming a pressing station between the columns and beams. The gantry structure facilitates the movement of the mobile device 4 into and out of the gantry.
[0023] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, there are two drive components 2, both of which are hydraulic cylinders. The cylinder body of the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the crossbeam, and the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the press 3.
[0024] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the tire outer flange pressing device further includes a guide mechanism 5, which is disposed on the frame 1, and the press 3 is slidably disposed in the guide mechanism 5. The guide mechanism 5 guides the press 3, thus preventing radial force on the moving structure of the drive component 2 and ensuring vertical pressure on the outer flange.
[0025] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the guiding mechanism 5 includes: guide tubes 501 and connecting strips 502. There are two guide tubes 501, spaced vertically apart. The connecting strips 502 connect the two guide tubes 501. The press 3 is slidably inserted between the guide tubes 501. The guide tubes 501 and connecting strips 502 form a sliding zone, creating a limiting structure for the press 3, ensuring that the press 3 moves vertically in a straight line, improving the stability of the press 3's movement. The connecting strips 502 enhance the structural strength.
[0026] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the press 3 includes a frame structure 302, a reinforcing plate 303, and a connecting strip 304. The reinforcing plate 303 is connected to the frame structure 302, and the connecting strip 304 is connected to the lower end of the reinforcing plate 303. The press head 301 is mounted on the connecting strip 304. Specifically, the frame structure 302 includes horizontal bars and vertical bars, with the vertical bars connected to both sides of the horizontal bars. The reinforcing plate 303 is a steel plate, welded to the horizontal bars and vertical bars. The connecting strip 304 is a steel plate and is connected to the lower edge of the reinforcing plate 303 along its length. The reinforcing plate 303 forms a reinforcing structure in the frame structure 302, improving the rigidity of the press 3 structure.
[0027] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the connecting strip 304 has multiple mounting holes along the length of the plate, which are used to mount the pressure head 301. The spacing between the pressure heads 301 can be adjusted by using the mounting holes at different positions to accommodate different outer rims.
[0028] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, there are two pressure heads 301 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the press 3. By applying pressure to the outer rim simultaneously with the two pressure heads 301, it is easy to press the outer rim into the rim body.
[0029] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bottom of the pressure head 301 is equipped with a pressure plate, which includes a flat plate and an inclined plate. The flat plate is used to contact the side of the outer rim, and the inclined plate is used to insert into the inner side of the outer rim. By inserting the two inclined plates into the inner side of the outer rim, the outer rim can be quickly positioned in the pressing position, which facilitates the application of pressure at symmetrical points of the same diameter on the outer rim.
[0030] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the moving device 4 is equipped with multiple protruding posts, which are used to insert into the inner side of the wheel rim. Specifically, the moving device 4 has a frame, four protruding posts, and is connected to the front end of the upper surface of the frame. The protruding posts are used to position the wheel rim, facilitating the positioning of the tire on the moving device 4.
[0031] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the mobile device 4 is equipped with a handlebar and rollers, the rollers being braked rollers. Specifically, the handlebar is connected to the rear end of the frame, and four rollers are connected to the four corners of the bottom of the frame; these rollers are swivel wheels with brakes. The handlebar facilitates the movement of the mobile device 4, while the rollers facilitate its movement and positioning on the ground.
[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, when using this tire outer flange pressing device, the tire is transported to the pressing station by the moving device 4, and the press 3 is driven by the drive component 2 to move downward. The press 3 presses down the outer flange, thereby exposing the structure for installing the locking ring in the rim body, which facilitates the installation of the locking ring. Therefore, this pressing device facilitates both tire movement and flange pressing, improving the convenience of locking ring installation, reducing manual labor intensity, and improving work efficiency. In addition, the entire mechanism has a simple structure, small footprint, and low cost.
