Description

Tyre manufacturing process and inner core
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of tires, in particular to a tire molding process and a tire mold.
Background
The tire is used as a part of a vehicle, which is in contact with the ground, and needs to have high strength in the running process of the vehicle and play a role in buffering to ensure the comfort of the vehicle. In order to ensure the strength of the tire and satisfy the comfort level of the tire, most of common tires are pneumatic tires. Also, in order to meet certain specific requirements, some tires are solid or use a non-pneumatic tire with a support structure.
The inflation mode of a pneumatic tire is classified into a tubed mode and a tubeless mode, and in either case, a cavity for storing gas needs to be formed inside the tire.
In order to generate the cavity inside the tire in the production process of the traditional tire, a bladder forming mode is mostly adopted, the main principle of the mode is that high-pressure water or high-pressure gas entering the interior of the bladder is used for swelling the bladder, the tire blank is outwards extruded to a tire mold from the interior, a cavity inside the tire is formed after vulcanization forming, and the bladder is shrunk and drawn out after vulcanization. The inflated shape of the bladder determines that the tire interior is a communicating annular space (see fig. 1). The shape of the inner space of the tire has great influence on the performance of the tire, for example, the support rib is added in the inner space of the tire to provide better support and stability for the tire, so that the performance of the tire is greatly improved; the honeycomb structure is added in the inner space of the tire, so that the tire can be converted into an inflation-free tire, and the tire burst hazard and the like are avoided. The bladder process is limited by the shape of the bladder, so that the difficulty in manufacturing the special-shaped inner space in the pneumatic rubber tire is great.
If the initial state of the material of the tire is liquid (such as injected rubber, plastic macromolecules and the like) in the production process of the tire, if the capsule is used for molding by adopting the traditional tire production process, the material cannot provide stable reverse pressure for the capsule, so that the expansion of the capsule is difficult to control under the state of internal pressure, the capsule is easily contacted with an outer side mold under the influence of the expansion and the dead weight, and the phenomenon of different thicknesses appears during the production of the product, so that the product is scrapped. Additionally, if it is desired to enhance tire performance by adding a support structure to the tire, the use of bladders does not provide a location for the support structure. Therefore, tires produced when the raw material is liquid are mainly solid tires, which are expensive and less comfortable than rubber tires. And when the required tires are large-sized engineering tires and giant tires, the solid tires have extremely large weight, the oil consumption is rapidly increased, and the manufacturing cost is greatly increased.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide an inner core for tire molding and a molding process, the method uses a meltable material to manufacture the inner core of the tire instead of a curing bladder, and the inner core can be melted and flowed out in a heating mode after the tire is molded. By using the method, various internal supports and spaces with different shapes can be generated inside the tire, and the tire is applicable to both inflation type tires and non-inflation type tires. The process of the invention is suitable for use with various types of tyres initially produced from liquid raw materials.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the invention provides the following technical scheme:
firstly, a meltable material is used for manufacturing an inner core, an upper die and a lower die of an inner core die are opened, partial material is injected to form a first material layer, partial heating wires and other inserts are pre-embedded, partial material is injected to form a second material layer until a half die is filled with a third material layer (as shown in figure 2). After the upper and lower dies of the inner core die are respectively filled with the materials, the inner core die is cooled for a period of time, the materials are solidified and contracted, then the inner core die is closed, and the middle layer is injected to integrally form the product (as shown in figure 3). In this way, the pre-buried heater wire can be ensured to be in the best position. After the materials are completely injected into the mold, the mold is continuously placed into a plurality of low-temperature chambers with different temperatures for cooling according to fixed time. And during cooling, enough materials are kept in the feeding bin to ensure the shrinkage and material supplement after temperature reduction. And taking out the semi-finished product after cooling, entering a machining process, finishing the appearance of the semi-finished product, and pre-grooving or pre-punching the position of the mechanical insert (shown in figure 4). And after the machining is finished, coating an isolation film on the surface, and finishing the manufacturing of the inner core. The mechanical insert in the inner core can be used in various sizes and purposes, the mechanical insert can be semi-through type, clamping type, material injection type and the like, and the installation positions are uniformly distributed on the inner core according to the requirement of support. The mechanical insert can also be poured into the inner core in an embedded mode.
When the inner core is formed in a 3D printing mode, machining and finishing and surface coating are needed to ensure the accuracy and the surface quality of the inner core.
After the inner core is manufactured, the mechanical insert for fixing is installed at a designated position (or the insert is directly arranged in the inner core when the inner core is manufactured). Then, the inner core is connected with the supporting structural member by a certain mechanical connection (threads, quick insertion or clamping, etc.) so that the inner core and the supporting structural member form a complete tire inner core (as shown in fig. 5).

When the inner core supporting structure needs to be supported from the inner pressure bearing ring, the inner pressure bearing ring can be poured after the tire body is poured and molded.
After the casting is completed, the tire and the inner core are taken out of the mold together. The tire with the inner core is placed into the post-cure chamber while the inner core support structure is removed. In the post-vulcanization process, the inner core is heated by the pre-buried heating wire in the mechanical insert communicated inner core on the inner core, so that heat is provided for post-vulcanization of the tire and the inner core material is melted into liquid, when the post-vulcanization is about to be finished, a channel (breathing hole) reserved when the supporting structure is detached is opened to draw out the melted liquid inner core, and finally the mechanical insert and the pre-buried heating wire are taken out and cleaned up.
