[0023] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0024] This utility model embodiment provides a tire mounting / removing hook assembly, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the tire mounting / removing hook assembly includes: Support base 20; The tire mounting hook 23 has a hook body portion 231 and a first connecting portion 232 located at both ends, and a second connecting portion 233 located between the hook body portion 231 and the first connecting portion 232. The second connecting portion 233 is rotatably connected to the support base 20 via a first pin 51. The drive unit is used to drive the tire removal hook 23 to rotate around the first pin 51 relative to the support seat 20; The outer edge of the hook body on the side away from the support base is arc-shaped, and the inner edge of the hook body on the side closer to the support base is arc-shaped. The central angle c of the outer edge satisfies: 93° ≤ c ≤ 98°. (See also...) Figure 3 As shown, the outer edge is Rb, the inner edge is Ra, and the center of the outer edge is a0.
[0025] In some embodiments, the central angle c+d formed by the axis from the end of the hook body 231 to the first pin 51 with the center a0 satisfies: c+d=133°.
[0026] In some specific embodiments, Ra = R46 (mm) and Rb = R60 (mm). In some embodiments, the hook portion 231 is arc-shaped, and the thickness of the hook portion 231 gradually decreases in the direction from the second connecting portion 233 to the hook portion 231, which increases the downward pressure and improves the success rate of the tire removal hook 23 pressing into the gap between the adhered tire bead and the wheel hub, thereby improving tire removal efficiency.
[0027] In some embodiments, the drive device includes at least one of the following: an electric motor, a servo motor, a hydraulic cylinder, a hydraulic motor, a pneumatic cylinder, or a pneumatic motor.
[0028] In some embodiments, the user can preset the output power of the drive device to ensure that the drive device can provide sufficient downward pressure to the tire removal hook 23, thereby increasing the success rate of the tire removal hook 23 pressing into the gap between the adhered tire bead and the wheel hub, and improving tire removal efficiency.
[0029] In some embodiments, the drive device is electrically connected to the controller, which includes a first control interface for receiving a downward pressure signal or an upward pressure signal sent by the user through an interactive terminal, and forwarding the downward pressure signal or the upward pressure signal to the drive device. After receiving the downward pressure signal, the drive device drives the tire removal hook 23 to rotate downward around the first pin 51, and after receiving the upward pressure signal, the drive device drives the tire removal hook 23 to rotate upward around the first pin 51.
[0030] Understandably, when tire removal is required, the user can operate the drive unit to rotate the tire removal hook 23 downwards around the first pin 51, causing the hook body 231 to press into the gap between the adhered tire bead and the rim. Further, the user can operate the tire to rotate around its own axis until the tire bead and rim are completely separated.
[0031] In this embodiment of the invention, the tire removal hook assembly includes: a support base 20; a tire removal hook 23 having a hook body portion 231 and a first connecting portion 232 located at both ends, and a second connecting portion 233 located between the hook body portion 231 and the first connecting portion 232, the second connecting portion 233 being rotatably connected to the support base 20 via a first pin 51; and a driving device for driving the tire removal hook 23 to rotate relative to the support base 20 around the first pin 51. In this embodiment of the invention, the driving device provides sufficient downward pressure to the tire removal hook 23, increasing the success rate of the tire removal hook 23 pressing into the gap formed between the adhered tire bead and the rim, thereby improving tire removal efficiency. See also some embodiments. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the support base 20 includes: The rotating arm 21 has a first opening at one end that communicates with the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21; Support plate 221; The drive unit includes: The first drive cylinder 22 has one end slidably telescopically disposed in the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21 from the first opening, and the support plate 221 is disposed at the other end of the first drive cylinder 22. The second connecting part 233 is rotatably connected to the support plate 221 through the first pin 51. The connector 24 has one end rotatably connected to the first connecting part 232 via the second pin 52, and the other end rotatably connected to the extended end of the telescopic arm 222 of the first driving cylinder via the third pin 53.
[0032] In practical applications, when it is necessary to remove the tire, the user places the tire to be removed in the tire removal operation position and further operates the first drive cylinder 22, causing the telescopic arm 222 of the first drive cylinder to extend outward. Through the connecting piece 24, the telescopic arm 222 of the first drive cylinder drives the first tire removal hook 23 to rotate downward around the first pin 51 until the hook body 231 presses into the gap between the tire bead and the rim of the tire to be removed. In this case, the user further operates the tire to be removed to rotate around the rim axis, promoting the hook body 231 to hook away the adhered tire bead and rim.
[0033] In this embodiment of the present invention, the support base 20 includes: a rotating arm 21, one end of which has a first opening communicating with the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21; a support plate 221; the driving device includes: a first driving cylinder 22, one end of which is slidably and telescopically disposed in the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21 from the first opening, the support plate 221 is disposed at the other end of the first driving cylinder 22, and a second connecting part 233 is rotatably connected to the support plate 221 through a first pin 51; a connecting member 24, one end of which is rotatably connected to the first connecting part 232 through a second pin 52, and the other end of which is rotatably connected to the extended end of the telescopic arm 222 of the first driving cylinder through a third pin 53. The tire disassembly and assembly mechanism of this embodiment of the present invention can efficiently disassemble and assemble tires.
[0034] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 As shown, the cross-section of the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21 is polygonal, and the first drive cylinder 22 is a prism that can cooperate with the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21. The first drive cylinder 22 is set in the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21. The rotating arm 21 provides a limit for the tire removal hook 23, which avoids the situation where the tire removal hook 23 is driven by the reaction force of the tire to be removed during the tire removal operation, causing the first drive cylinder 22 to rotate around its own axis (avoiding positional displacement), thereby avoiding the safety accident caused by this.
[0035] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the cylinder wall of the first driving cylinder 22 has a plurality of first limiting holes 22a arranged at intervals along the length direction of the first driving cylinder 22. The rotating arm 21 has a first through hole 21a; The tire mounting hook assembly also includes: The first limiting pin 25 passes through the first through hole 21a and is inserted into the first limiting hole 22a that is aligned with the first through hole 21a among a plurality of first limiting holes 22a.
[0036] In this embodiment of the invention, the first limiting pin 25 can be inserted into any of the first through holes 21a. In practical applications, according to the size of the tire to be removed, the user can flexibly adjust the extension amount of the first drive cylinder 22 extending the rotating arm 21. After achieving the extension amount determined by the user, the first through hole 21a is aligned with a first limiting hole 22a that matches the extension amount. The first limiting pin 25 is then inserted through the first through hole 21a and into the first limiting hole 22a to achieve locking. Through the above design, this embodiment of the invention can adapt to tires of various sizes, avoiding the need to frequently change different tire removal hook assemblies to adapt to different tire sizes, thereby improving tire removal efficiency.
[0037] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 As shown, the support base 20 includes: The rotating arm 21 has a first opening at one end that communicates with the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21; The limiting arm 26 has one end slidably telescopically disposed in the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21 from the first opening, and the other end is provided with a connecting seat 261. The second connecting part 233 is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 261 through the first pin 51. The drive unit includes: The second drive cylinder 27 is mounted on the connecting seat 261, and the first connecting part 232 is rotatably connected to the extended end of the telescopic arm 271 of the second drive cylinder via the fourth pin.
[0038] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the first drive cylinder 22 needs to be machined to fit the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21, or the first drive cylinder 22 needs to be customized to have a shape that fits the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21. Specifically, see [link to documentation]. Figure 1 , Figure 2 The cross-section of the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21 shown is polygonal. The first drive cylinder 22 is a prism that can cooperate with the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21. The first drive cylinder 22 is set in the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21. The rotating arm 21 provides a limit for the tire removal hook 23, which avoids the situation where the tire removal hook 23 is driven by the reaction force of the tire to be removed during the tire removal operation, causing the first drive cylinder 22 to rotate around its own axis (avoiding positional displacement), thereby avoiding the safety accident caused by this.
[0039] However, machining the first drive cylinder 22 to fit the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21 requires overall machining and design of the first drive cylinder 22. Furthermore, during machining, it is crucial to ensure the proper extension and retraction function of the first drive cylinder 22 to avoid damage to the hydraulic circuit or the telescopic arm, making manufacturing difficult. Customizing the first drive cylinder 22 to fit the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21 would easily lead to extended production cycles and high production costs.
[0040] Based on this, in this embodiment of the invention, the limiting arm 26 is a prism that can cooperate with the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21. The limiting arm 26 is slidably and telescopically disposed within the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21. This embodiment of the invention achieves the aforementioned function of preventing positional displacement. Furthermore, during manufacturing, only the limiting arm 26 needs to be machined or customized; there is no need to ensure the functionality of the first drive cylinder 22 during machining, resulting in low manufacturing difficulty. Even if the limiting arm 26 is customized, it is simpler than customizing the first drive cylinder 22. Standard parts can be quickly customized or directly purchased (for example, the cross-section of the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21 is rectangular, and the limiting arm 26 is a quadrangular prism that can cooperate with the aforementioned arm cavity; rectangular tube standard parts are readily available on the market and can be directly purchased). This embodiment of the invention reduces the difficulty of manufacturing, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing manufacturing costs.
[0041] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 As shown, the limiting arm 26 has a plurality of second limiting holes 26a arranged at intervals along the length direction of the limiting arm 26; The rotating arm 21 has a second through hole 21b; The tire mounting hook assembly also includes: The second limiting pin 29 passes through the second through hole 21b and is inserted into the second limiting hole 26a of the plurality of second limiting holes 26a that is aligned with the second through hole 21b.
[0042] In this embodiment of the invention, the second limiting pin 29 can be inserted into any of the second through holes 21b. In practical applications, the user can flexibly adjust the distance between the tire removal hook 23 and the tire to be removed according to the size specifications of the tire to be removed. After achieving the distance determined by the user, the second through hole 21b is aligned with a second limiting hole 26a that matches the distance. The second limiting pin 29 is then inserted through the second through hole 21b and into the second limiting hole 26a to achieve locking. Through the above design, this embodiment of the invention can adapt to tires of various sizes, avoiding the need to frequently change different tire removal hook assemblies to adapt to different sizes of tires, thereby improving tire removal efficiency.
[0043] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the support base 20 includes: Rotary arm 21; The positioning arm 210 passes through the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21 and can slide along the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21. One end is provided with a first support plate 2101 and the other end is provided with a mounting base 2102. The first connecting part 232 is rotatably connected to the first support plate 2101 through a first pin 51. The drive unit includes: The third drive cylinder 211 is located on the mounting base 2102; The first transmission rod 212 passes through the arm cavity of the positioning arm 210 and can slide along the arm cavity of the positioning arm 210; The second transmission rod 213 has one end rotatably connected to the end of the first transmission rod 212 that extends from one side of the mounting base 2102, and the other end rotatably connected to the extended end of the telescopic arm 2111 of the third drive cylinder. The second transmission rod 213 is also rotatably connected to the mounting base 2102. The first connector 216 has one end rotatably connected to the first connector 232 via a fifth pin, and the other end rotatably connected to the end of the first transmission rod 212 extending from one side of the first support plate 2101 via a sixth pin.
[0044] In this embodiment of the present invention, the two ends of the second transmission rod 213 respectively have connecting grooves 213a extending along the length direction of the second transmission rod 213, and the two ends of the second transmission rod 213 are rotatably connected to the first transmission rod 212 and the telescopic arm 2111 of the third drive cylinder through pins 50 provided in the connecting grooves 213a.
[0045] It should be noted that when the user operates the telescopic arm 2111 of the third drive cylinder to extend, the telescopic arm 2111 of the third drive cylinder drives the first drive rod 212 to extend via the transmission of the second drive rod 213, thereby driving the tire removal hook 23 to rotate downward around the first pin 51.
[0046] In this embodiment of the invention, the positioning arm 210 is a prism-shaped component that can mate with the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21. By penetrating the arm cavity of the rotating arm and sliding along the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21, this embodiment of the invention achieves the function of preventing positional displacement. Furthermore, during manufacturing, only the positioning arm 210 needs to be machined or customized. During machining, it is not necessary to ensure the functionality of the first drive cylinder 22, thus reducing manufacturing difficulty. Even if the positioning arm 210 is customized, it is simpler than customizing the first drive cylinder 22. Standard parts can be quickly customized or directly purchased (for example, the cross-section of the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21 is rectangular, and the limiting arm 26 is a quadrangular prism that can mate with the aforementioned arm cavity. Rectangular tube standard parts are readily available in the market and can be purchased directly). This embodiment of the invention reduces the difficulty of manufacturing, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing manufacturing costs.
[0047] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the cross-section of the arm cavity of the rotating arm 21 is hexagonal, and the positioning arm 210 is a hexagonal prism that can cooperate with the arm cavity.
[0048] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 , Figure 8As shown, the positioning arm 210 has a plurality of third limiting holes 210a arranged at intervals along the length direction of the positioning arm 210; The rotating arm 21 has a third through hole 21c; The tire mounting hook assembly also includes: The third limiting pin 215 passes through the third through hole 21c and is inserted into the third limiting hole 210a that is aligned with the third through hole 21c among the multiple third limiting holes 210a.
[0049] In this embodiment of the invention, the third limiting pin 215 can be inserted into any of the third through holes 21c. In practical applications, the user can flexibly adjust the distance between the tire removal hook 23 and the tire to be removed according to the size specifications of the tire to be removed. After achieving the distance determined by the user, the third through hole 21c is aligned with a third limiting hole 210a that matches the distance. The third limiting pin 215 is then inserted through the third through hole 21c and into the third limiting hole 210a to achieve locking. Through the above design, this embodiment of the invention can adapt to tires of various sizes, avoiding the need to frequently change different tire removal hook assemblies to adapt to different sizes of tires, thereby improving tire removal efficiency.
[0050] In some embodiments, the tire removal hook assembly further includes: The sliding plate (not shown in the figure) is located on the outer side of the column of the tire changer and can slide up and down along the column; The rotating arm 21 is rotatably mounted on the slide plate (not shown in the figure) about an axis extending in the vertical direction.
[0051] When tire removal is required, the user can operate the rotating arm 21 to rotate around the axis in a direction away from the slide plate (not shown in the figure), so as to facilitate placing the tire to be removed into the tire removal operation position.
[0052] In some embodiments, the tire removal hook assembly further includes: A locking mechanism is used to lock the boom 21 in a working position close to the slide plate (not shown).
[0053] In some embodiments, the locking mechanism includes: The hook 41 is rotatably mounted on the rotating arm 21 about an axis extending vertically. When the rotating arm 21 is in the working position, the hook 41 can hook onto the boss of the sliding plate (not shown in the figure). The hook 41 hooks onto the boss, thereby locking the rotating arm 21 in the working position.
