Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tire production and logistics technology. Specifically, this utility model relates to an automatic standing mechanism for tires after they are produced. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of the automotive industry, the demand for tires continues to grow, and the production capacity of manufacturers continues to expand, which puts forward higher requirements for the efficiency of tire production, warehousing and logistics. As a key step connecting various links, the efficiency and accuracy of tire transfer and positioning directly affect the overall operational efficiency of enterprises. Currently, most companies still rely on manual operation in the process of transporting tires from the conveyor line to the off-line workstation. In the production workshop, workers need to move the tires delivered by the conveyor line to the designated workstation and arrange them neatly. Due to the weight and volume of tires, especially large tires, manual handling is labor-intensive, and long-term operation can easily lead to fatigue, increasing the risk of workplace injuries. Moreover, the speed cannot keep up with the pace of the production line, which can easily cause tire accumulation and restrict production efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] This utility model provides an automatic tire-standing mechanism after the tire is removed from the production line, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an automatic tire conveying line standing mechanism, comprising a tire conveying line, a workbench disposed on one side of the tire conveying line, and an electrical control cabinet installed on the tire conveying line, and further comprising: A propulsion structure is mounted below one side of the tire delivery line; A lifting structure, wherein the lifting structure is disposed through the worktable; A baffle is installed on the top of the workbench on the side away from the tire conveyor line.
[0005] Preferably, the propulsion structure includes a mounting plate fixedly connected between two sets of support legs of the tire conveyor line, a propulsion cylinder mounted on one side of the mounting plate, a push plate connected to the output end of the propulsion cylinder, and two sets of guide rods symmetrically mounted on one side of the push plate, wherein both sets of guide rods are arranged through the mounting plate.
[0006] Preferably, the lifting structure includes a lifting cylinder installed below the workbench, a support plate connected to the output end of the lifting cylinder, and two sets of limiting rods symmetrically installed at the bottom of the support plate, with both sets of limiting rods penetrating the workbench.
[0007] Preferably, a tire detection switch is provided on both the tire conveying line and the top corner of the baffle, and a reset button is provided on the top of one side of the baffle.
[0008] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solutions are: 1. By coordinating the lifting structure, the propulsion structure and the detection switch, the entire process of the tire being received on the conveyor line, lowered to a low position and pushed to stand is automated. Only manual labor is required to remove the standing tire and trigger the reset, which greatly reduces the number of manual operation steps and solves the problem of high labor intensity in traditional manual handling.
[0009] Second, the equipment has a fast response speed, which can match the continuous output rhythm of the production line, avoid tires from piling up at the end of the conveyor line, improve the overall production logistics efficiency, and eliminate the need for manual bending over to move or straighten tires, reducing the risk of work-related injuries such as back and joint injuries; the equipment is equipped with a reset button, which allows for manual emergency intervention to avoid misoperation.
[0010] Third, the guide rod of the propulsion structure and the limit rod of the lifting structure ensure the stability of the pushing and lifting processes respectively; the arc-shaped groove of the push plate cooperates with the baffle to ensure that the tires stand in the same posture, which is convenient for subsequent transportation or storage; and by adjusting the size of the bearing plate, the cylinder stroke and the position of the baffle, it can be adapted to passenger car and commercial vehicle tires of different diameters (12-24 inches) and different weights (≤150kg).

[0012] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in order to help those skilled in the art to have a more complete, accurate and in-depth understanding of the concept and technical solution of this utility model, and to facilitate its implementation.
[0013] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an automatic tire conveying mechanism includes a tire conveyor line 1, a workbench 2 disposed on one side of the tire conveyor line 1, and an electrical control cabinet 3 installed on the tire conveyor line 1. It also includes: The propulsion structure 4 is installed below one side of the tire conveyor line 1; Lifting structure 5, which is installed through the worktable 2; Baffle 6 is installed on the top of the workbench 2 on the side away from the tire conveyor line 1.
[0014] It should be noted that the electrical control cabinet 3 is equipped with a PLC controller, which is electrically connected to the propulsion cylinder 42, the lifting cylinder 51, the tire detection switch and the reset button 8, respectively, to receive signals and control the operation of each component.
[0015] The propulsion structure 4 includes a mounting plate 41 fixedly connected between two sets of support legs of the tire conveyor line 1, a propulsion cylinder 42 installed on one side of the mounting plate 41, a push plate 43 connected to the output end of the propulsion cylinder 42, and two sets of guide rods 44 symmetrically installed on one side of the push plate 43. Both sets of guide rods 44 are arranged through the mounting plate 41.
[0016] It should be noted that the two sets of guide rods 44 slide in conjunction with the mounting plate 41, and their function is to provide guidance for the movement of the push plate 43, ensuring that the push plate 43 can smoothly push the tire from the tire conveyor line to the worktable under the action of the push cylinder 42.
[0017] In addition, the push plate 43 has an arc-shaped groove on the side near the tire, which matches the outer contour of the tire to ensure that the tire is subjected to uniform force during the pushing process.
[0018] The lifting structure 5 includes a lifting cylinder 51 installed below the workbench 2, a bearing plate 52 connected to the output end of the lifting cylinder 51, and two sets of limiting rods 53 symmetrically installed at the bottom of the bearing plate 52. Both sets of limiting rods 53 are installed through the workbench 2.
[0019] It should be noted that the limiting rod 53 can limit and stabilize the lifting of the support plate 52, ensuring that the support plate 52 can accurately lift the tire to a suitable height under the drive of the lifting cylinder 51, so as to achieve the upright placement of the tire. In addition, the bottom of the two sets of limiting rods 53 are equipped with limiting blocks to limit the maximum lifting height of the support plate 52 and avoid excessive lifting.
[0020] In addition, the upper surface of the support plate 52 is equipped with an anti-slip rubber pad to prevent the tire from slipping during the lifting process.
[0021] Both the tire conveyor line 1 and the baffle 6 are equipped with a tire detection switch 7 at one corner of the top, and a reset button 8 is provided on the top of one side of the baffle 6.
[0022] It should be noted that the tire detection switches 7 are respectively set on the side of the end of the tire conveyor line 1 near the workbench 2 to detect whether the tire has reached the end of the conveyor line; and are set on the side of the inner side of the baffle 6 near the support plate 52 to detect whether the tire has been pushed to the baffle 6.
[0023] Additionally, reset button 8 is used to manually trigger the lifting structure 5 to reset to the waiting state.
[0024] The specific working method is described below using specific embodiments: Example 1
[0025] Initial state: The lifting cylinder 51 drives the bearing plate 52 to rise to the highest position and be flush with the end of the tire conveyor line 1, which is the rising waiting position. The push cylinder 42 drives the push plate 43 to retract to the push original position. Tire receiving: The tire is conveyed from the tire conveyor line 1 to the end, triggering the tire detection switch 7 on the tire conveyor line 1. The signal is transmitted to the PLC controller of the electrical control cabinet 3. After a delay of 0.5 seconds, the controller ensures that the tire is completely removed from the conveyor line, controls the lifting cylinder 51 to retract, and drives the support plate 52 and the tire to the lowest position flush with the surface of the workbench 2. The tire is in a tilted state with a tilt angle of about 30°. Pushing to stand upright: After the support plate 52 reaches the lowest position, the limit switch at its bottom sends a signal to the PLC controller. The controller controls the push cylinder 42 to extend, and the push plate 43 pushes the tire towards the baffle 6 along the guide rod 44 until the tire is in contact with the baffle 6 and triggers the tire detection switch 7 on the baffle 6. At this time, the tire is in an upright state. Reset cycle: The tire detection switch 7 on the baffle 6 sends a signal to the controller, and the push cylinder 42 retracts to its original position; after the upright tire is manually removed, the reset button 8 is pressed, and the lifting cylinder 51 drives the support plate 52 to rise to the waiting position, ready to receive the next tire.
[0026] The present invention has been described above by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvements made by adopting the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution to other situations without modification, are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
