JP 2003-80612 A

  However, the side of the carcass band that is folded around the bead is folded back along the center of the carcass band, and after the folding arm is returned to the outermost position in the molding drum axial direction, the side of the folded carcass band is securely located at the center of the carcass band. Stitching is performed while rotating the tire molding drum at a high speed so that the folding arm is opened due to the centrifugal force acting on the folding roller of the folding arm. Therefore, when the swinging force of the elastomer band inward in the radial direction is increased, a pressing force more than necessary is applied to the side of the carcass band when the carcass band is folded back, and the streak of the folding roller remains on the side of the carcass band. This was also a problem.

  The present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and the side portion of the carcass band can be folded without leaving a streak on the side portion of the folded carcass band, and the tire molding drum can be rotated at high speed. An object of the present invention is to provide a carcass band folding device in which the folding arm does not open even when the folding arm is opened.

<1> The present invention is arranged in a row in the circumferential direction of the tire molding drum, and is provided in a plurality so as to be able to swing inward and outward in the radial direction around a base end portion positioned outside in the axial direction of a pair of bead lock means. A folding arm of a book, a folding roller rotatably supported at the tip of each folding arm, an arm moving means for reciprocating the folding arms together in the axial direction, and bundling the folding arms together A cylindrical carcass band that is provided on the outer side in the tire axial direction of each bead core supported by the bead lock means by swinging outward in the radial direction of the folding arm. Fold the sides around the bead core along the center of the carcass band that swells in a semicircular shape between the bead cores. In Kasubando wrapping apparatus,
Each of the folding arms is provided with a projection that is in an axially outward position at a position on the outer side in the axial direction of the base end portion under the displacement to the outermost position in the axial direction. A stopper member having a surface facing the radially inner surface of the protrusion under displacement to the outer position is provided, and the stopper member is configured to suppress the displacement of the protrusion inward in the radial direction due to rotation of the tire molding drum. This is a carcass band folding device.

  <2> The present invention provides the carcass band folding device according to <1>, wherein the stopper member is provided with a surface that abuts against the axially outer surface of the projection under the displacement of the folding arm to the outermost position. It is.

  <3> In the present invention, in <1> or <2>, two folding rollers supported by the tip of each folding arm are provided via a swinging member, and the swinging member is the tip of the folding arm. These folding rollers are provided so that they can swing in and out of the radial direction of the molding drum with the central portion in the length direction supported by the shaft as the swing center. This is a carcass band folding device arranged in the circumferential direction of the molding drum.

  <4> In the present invention, in <3>, the folding rollers supported at both ends in the length direction of the swing member are supported by the roller support portions of the swing member in the circumferential direction of the molding drum. The two divided parts are arranged on both sides, and one of the divided parts is provided so as to protrude from the swinging member in the circumferential direction of the molding drum, and the protruding directions thereof are opposite to each other by the folding rollers. The forming drum circumferential direction extending angle range of the roller supporting portion that supports the folding roller is configured to be included in the molding drum circumferential direction extending angle range of the other divided part of the other folding roller. This is a carcass band folding device.

According to the invention of <1>, a protrusion is disposed on each folded arm so as to be directed outward in the axial direction at a position on the outer side in the axial direction of the base end portion under the displacement to the outermost position in the axial direction. And provided with a stopper member having a surface that faces the radially inner surface of the projection under the displacement of the folding arm to the outermost position. Even when the drum is rotated at a high speed, it is possible to prevent the folding arm located at the outermost position in the axial direction from opening, and the oscillation force of the elastomer band is the minimum strength sufficient for folding the side of the carcass band. By adjusting the height, it is possible to solve the problem that the streak of the folding roller remains on the side of the carcass band.
In particular, when the side portion of the carcass band in which the side wall member is extended further outward from both ends in the width direction of the carcass member is folded back, the side wall member is folded back while pressing the surface with a folding roller. The wall member is more likely to leave the mark of the folding roller than the carcass member. In this respect, the present invention can bring about a greater effect in the application of folding the side portion of the carcass band with the sidewall member.

  According to the invention <2>, the displacement of the protrusion can be regulated by the stopper member on both the radially inward surface and the axially outward surface under the displacement of the folding arm to the outermost position. Since it comprised in this, rocking | fluctuation to the radial direction outer side of the folding | turning arm under high speed rotation of a tire shaping | molding drum can be suppressed more reliably.

  According to the invention <3>, the folding rollers respectively pivotally supported at both ends in the length direction of the swinging member that is swingably connected to the tip of the folding arm are brought into rolling contact with the side portion of the carcass band. Since it can be folded back, the swinging force generated by the elastomer band can be converted into a uniform pressing force to the center portion of the carcass band, and the crimping of the side portion of the carcass band to the center portion of the carcass band can be made uniform.

  According to the invention <4>, according to the tire molding drum, the folding rollers attached to both ends in the length direction of one swing member are provided so as to protrude from the swing member to the opposite sides in the circumferential direction. That is, these rollers are attached to the folding arms in steps, so that even if the diameter of the tip of the folding arm is reduced and the interval between the adjacent tips is narrowed, one of the rollers protruding between the neighboring folding arms The roller of the folding arm and the roller of the other folding arm do not interfere with each other, so that when the folding arms are arranged densely in the circumferential direction and the tip of the folding arm is expanded in diameter, a pair is formed. The side of the carcass band that is not crimped by any of the folding rollers formed can be eliminated, and the contact between the center of the carcass band and the side of the carcass band can be eliminated. It is possible to further strengthen.

  In addition, each folding roller attached to both ends of the swinging member is divided into two on both sides of the roller support part of the swinging member that supports these rollers. Thus, it is possible to prevent the carcass band side portion extending radially outward from coming into contact with the non-rotating support portion and damaging the carcass band side portion.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a half portion including a central axis of a tire molding drum on which a carcass band folding device according to an embodiment of the present invention is mounted.

  The tire molding drum 1 is provided with a pair of sleeves 3 that are spaced apart from each other in the axial direction on the central axis 2 and are displaced toward each other. The carcass band folding device 10 according to the present invention is fixed on the outer periphery of each slider 4 together with the bead lock means 7 for fixing and supporting the bead core. Provided.

  The bead lock means 7 includes a plurality of bead lock segments 71 adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction, expanding and contracting in an annular shape, each link 72 having one end hinged to these bead lock segments 71, and the other end of each link 72 And a bead lock piston 73 that is axially displaceable, and a bead lock cylinder 74 that is fixed on the outer periphery of the sleeve 3 and that displaces the bead lock piston 73. In order to increase the diameter of the bead lock segment 71, the bead lock piston 73 is displaced inward in the axial direction, and the end portion of the link 72 on the bead lock segment 71 side is increased in diameter.

  One core body 60 that is radially expanded and contracted is arranged in the center in the axial direction between the two bead lock means 7, and this core body 60 is engaged with each other by a comb tooth portion to form a ring-shaped rigidity. A plurality of support members 60a are configured, and one end portion of a link mechanism 61 including a pair of links 61a in which intermediate portions are hinge-connected to each rigid support member 60a, and the other end portion of the link mechanism 61 is connected to each other. It attaches to each sleeve 3 which makes a pair, and the means (not shown) which reciprocates this in the axial direction is attached to the sleeve 3.

  The molding drum 1 also includes a center bladder 9 made of a reinforced rubber film that extends outward in the radial direction of the core body 60, seals the space around the core body 60, and expands and contracts in a toroidal shape. The both sides in the axial direction of the center bladder 9 are fixed to the inner end in the axial direction of the slider 4 at a position close to the inner side in the axial direction of the bead lock means 7. With this configuration, both side portions of the center bladder 9 in the axial direction, the bead lock means 7 on the same side in the axial direction, and the carcass band folding device 10 on the same side in the axial direction are integrally separated and moved closer together.

The core body 60 is reduced in diameter, and the bead lock means 7 is separated and displaced.

  In order to displace the pair of bead lock means 7 in proximity to each other, the respective sliders 4 are displaced in proximity to each other. Further, in order to displace the diameter of the bead lock segment 71, the bead lock piston 73 is displaced inward in the axial direction, and the end portion of the link 72 on the bead lock segment 71 side is expanded.

  Here, the means for moving the respective sliders 4 inward and outward in the axial direction so as to move away from each other is a female screw member 41 coupled to the respective sliders 4 via a coupling member 42 on the inside in the radial direction thereof, A screw shaft 50 having left and right male screw portions 51 which are provided in hollow portions in the central shaft 2 and screwed into the respective female screw members 41, and screw shaft rotating means (not shown) for rotating the screw shaft 50. ), And the direction of the lead of the male threaded portion 51 of the screw shaft 50 is opposite to each other on the left and right. With this configuration, by rotating the screw shaft 50 by the screw shaft rotating means, the female screw member 41 is displaced in a laterally symmetrical manner so as to be separated and approached, so that the pair of bead lock means 7 mounted on the slider 4 is accurately positioned. It can be moved away from each other. The central shaft 2 and the sleeve 3 are provided with through-holes 2a and 3a that allow the connecting member 42 to pass therethrough.

  FIG. 2 is a partial cross-sectional view showing the carcass band folding apparatus 10 in a cross section including the central axis of the tire molding drum. 2A shows a state before turning back, FIG. 2C shows a state in the middle of turning back, and FIG. 2B shows the turning back in FIG. 2A. It is detail drawing which expands and shows the engaging part of protrusion of an arm and a stopper member. Both FIG. 2 (a) and FIG.2 (c) show only about the substantially quarter part of a tire molding drum.

  The carcass band folding device 10 includes a folding arm 11 provided so as to be able to swing inward and outward in the radial direction around the base end portion 17, and the folding arm 11 is arranged in the tire molding drum circumferential direction, for example, at regular intervals. Is done.

  Further, the carcass band folding device 10 includes a folding roller 14 rotatably supported at the tip of each folding arm 11, arm moving means 30 for reciprocally displacing each of the folding arms 11 in the axial direction, and these An elastomer band 15 that bunches the folding arms 11 and swings inward in the radial direction of the forming drum. By swinging the folding arms 11 radially outward, each of the bead cores B supported by the bead lock means 7 is provided. The cylindrical carcass band side portion CBS located on the outer side in the tire axial direction is configured to be folded back around the bead core B along the carcass band center portion CBS bulged between the bead cores B in a substantially semicircular shape. Is done.

  The arm moving means 30 includes a cylinder base 32 fixed on the circumference of the slider 4, a first sliding wall 33 and a second sliding wall 34 that slide on the outer circumference of the cylinder base 32, and these sliding walls. And a fixed partition wall 31 fixedly provided on the outer periphery of the cylinder base 32. The fixed wall 31, the first sliding wall 33, the cylindrical wall 37, Forms the first pressure chamber 36a, and the fixed wall 31, the second sliding wall 34 and the cylindrical wall 37 similarly form the second pressure chamber 36b.

  The fixed wall 31, the first sliding wall 33, and the second sliding wall 34 are formed in an annular shape around the center axis of the tire molding drum, and in the figure, reference numerals 35a and 35b denote the first pressure chamber 36a. , Air holes for taking pressurized air into and out of the second pressure chamber 36b.

  Each of the proximal end portions 17 of the folding arm 11 is fixed to the first sliding wall 33, and air is supplied from the air hole 35a to the first pressure chamber 36a, and at the same time from the air hole 35b to the second pressure chamber. By exhausting the air in 36b, the first sliding wall 33 can be pressurized outward in the axial direction, and the folding arm 11 can be displaced outward in the axial direction. Simultaneously with the supply to the chamber 36b, the air in the first pressure chamber 36a is exhausted from the air hole 35a, whereby the second sliding wall 34 is pressurized inward in the axial direction and the folding arm 11 is displaced inward in the axial direction. be able to.

Each folding arm 11 has an attitude toward the outside in the axial direction under the displacement to the outermost position in the axial direction, that is, in the state shown in FIG. And a stopper member 13 having a surface facing the radially inner surface of the protrusion 12 under the displacement of the folding arm 11 to the outermost position.
That is, the surface 13 a is provided on the stopper member 13 as a surface facing the surface 12 a facing the radially inner side of the protrusion 12. In addition to these pairs of surfaces, the projection 12 is provided with a surface 12b facing outward in the axial direction under displacement of the folding arm 11 to the axially outermost position, and the stopper member 13 is provided with this surface 12b. An abutting surface 13b is provided.

  When the tire molding drum 1 is rotated at a high speed for stitching or the like, each folding arm 11 is moved radially inward of the elastomer band 15 by a centrifugal force acting on a folding roller 14 provided at the tip of the folding arm 11. With respect to the problem of opening to the outside in the radial direction against the force and causing interference with other devices, the folding arm 11 is arranged by disposing the surface 13a of the stopper member 13 so as to face the surface 12a of the protrusion 12. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the displacement of the protrusion 12 that moves inward in the radial direction when the arm opens, and thus it is possible to prevent the folding arm 11 from opening outward in the radial direction, and the surface 12b of the protrusion 12 and the surface 13b of the stopper member 13 This contact can be surely prevented. Further, when the folding arm 11 is separated from the outermost position in the axial direction, the stopper member 13 does not face the protrusion, so that it can be opened radially outward, and the carcass band folding device 10 can perform the intended folding. Can be operated.

  In the carcass band folding device 10 configured as described above, when the folding arm 11 is displaced to the axially outermost position, the tip of the folding arm 21 is in a reduced diameter state, and the folding roller 14 becomes a groove. Although it is stationary on the roller arrangement part 16 extending in the circumferential direction, when the folding arm 11 is displaced inward in the axial direction by the arm moving means 30, the folding roller 14 has a radius along the inclined surface of the roller arrangement part 16. When the carcass band central portion CBC bulges out in the direction outward, it further moves outward in the radial direction along the carcass band outer contour line beyond the inclined surface.

  At this time, a radially inward force by the airlastoma band 15 acts on the folding arm 21, and by this force, the folding roller 14 pushes the carcass band side part CBS back inward in the radial direction to the central part of the carcass band. Can be crimped.

  3 and 4 are cross-sectional views of a tire in the middle of molding, illustrating a process of molding a green tire using the carcass band folding device 10. First, as shown in FIG. 3A, a preset bead PB in which a bead core B and a bead filler member F are preset, and a carcass member C with an inner liner member IL, a sidewall member S, and a canvas chafer member CF. A carcass band CB having a generally cylindrical shape, on which members such as the above are assembled, is disposed on the outer peripheral side of the tire molding drum 1.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 3B, the bead lock segment 71 of the bead lock means 7 is forwardly displaced by the bead lock piston 37 shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 3 (c), the left and right bead cores B are locked by the corresponding bead lock segments 71, and are moved close to each other under the action of the slider 4 shown in FIG. The space sealed in the center bladder 9 is pressurized to bulge the central portion CBC of the carcass band CB extending between the bead cores B in a toroidal shape.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 4 (a), the side surface of the rigid support member 60a is expanded to a height corresponding to the radial position of the bead core B, and this is held at that position. By actuating, the base end portion 17 of the folding arm 11 is displaced inward in the axial direction, and folding of the carcass band side portion CBS including the sidewall member S is started.

  Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 4B, the folding roller 14 is displaced radially outward along the outer contour line of the carcass band central portion CBC, and the folding of the carcass band side portion CBS is completed. When the carcass band side portion CBS is folded by the folding roller 14, the rigid support member 60a is always folded so that the side surface of the rigid support member 60a faces each other according to the radial position of the folding roller 14 whose diameter is increased. It is preferable to carry out the diameter expansion displacement in synchronism with the diameter expansion of 14, so that the crimping of the carcass band side part CBS to the carcass band center part CBC can be ensured.

  Next, after the folding roller 14 is originally displaced radially inward, as shown in FIG. 4 (c), the side of the side surface is rotated by the stitching roller 38 whose surface is knurled while the molding drum 1 is rotated. The vicinity of the folded end of the carcass band side portion CBS including the wall member S is crimped.

Although the subsequent steps are not shown in the drawings, the rigid support member 60a is further expanded to the maximum diameter, and a belt member, a tread member, a rubber chafer member, etc. are pasted on the outside of the carcass band CB using the rigid support member 60a as a support. After the tire is completed, the diameter of the rigid support member 60a is reduced, the green tire is taken out from the molding drum 1 and delivered to the next process, and the process ends.
In the above description, the side wall member S is folded after being assembled as a part of the carcass band CB. However, the side wall member S is not part of the carcass band CB, but is turned back. It can also be assembled to the outside in the axial direction of the side part CBS.

  The carcass band folding device 10 described above has a configuration in which one folding roller 14 is provided at the tip of each folding arm 11, but a modification in which only this tip is replaced with another one will be described. FIG. 5 is a front view showing details of the distal end portion of the folding arm 21 of the carcass band folding device 20 of this modification, and FIG. 6 is a view of the expansion / contraction mode of the folding arm 21 as seen from the axial direction. In FIG. 5, the solid line indicates a state in which the tip of the folded arm 21 is reduced in diameter, and the two-dot chain line indicates a state in which the diameter of the folded arm 21 is expanded to an intermediate diameter, and in FIG. The two-dot chain line indicates a state where the diameter is reduced.

  In the carcass band folding device 20, a swinging member 22 that swings in the radial direction around the central portion in the length direction is attached to the tip of the folding arm 21 via a swinging pin 25. Folding rollers 23 and 24 that rotate around respective axes provided in parallel with the swing pin 25 are attached to both ends in the length direction of 22. The folding rollers 23 and 24 attached to the swinging member 22 of each folding arm 21 are arranged back and forth in the length direction, that is, in the radial direction or the axial direction of the tire molding drum 1, and the swinging member 22. These rollers 23 and 24 are opposite to each other in the protruding direction.

  Each of the rollers 23 and 24 is divided into two parts on both sides of the portions 22a and 22b of the swinging member 22 supporting these roller shafts. The roller 23 is divided into a protruding roller 23a and a non-projecting roller 23b. The roller 24 is divided into a projecting side roller 24a and a non-projecting side roller 24b. At this time, the circumferential extension angle range of each roller rotating shaft support portion 22a or 22b corresponding to one folding roller 24 or 23 is located within the circumferential angle range of the other folding roller 23 or 24. .

  In the carcass band folding device 20, the swinging member 22 is provided at the tip of the folding arm 21, so that the carcass band pressing force applied to the tip of the folding arm 21 is caused by the action of the swinging member 22. Regardless of the outer contour shape of the central portion and the position on the outer contour, it is evenly distributed to the respective folding rollers 23 and 24, and uniform and smooth folding can be realized.

  In addition, since these rollers 23 and 24 are attached in steps on both sides in the circumferential direction of the folding arm 21, even if the distal end portion of the folding arm 21 is reduced in diameter and the interval between the adjacent distal end portions is narrowed, The roller 23 of one arm 21 and the roller 24 of the other arm 21 projecting between the adjacent arms 21 do not interfere with each other, and the distance between the adjacent arms 21 can be minimized. In the state where the arms 21 are densely arranged in the circumferential direction and the tip portion of the arm 21 is expanded in diameter, it is possible to eliminate the carcass band side CBS portion which is not pressure-bonded by any of the rollers 23 and 24. The adhesion between the carcass band center part CBC and the carcass band side part CBS can be strengthened.

  Each of the rollers 23 and 24 is divided into two on both sides of the portions 22a and 22b of the swinging member 22 that support these roller shafts. This is because the rollers 23 and 24 are supported by the support portion 22a. , 22b, the portion of the carcass band side portion CBS stretched radially outward between the adjacent folding arms 21 in the middle of the folding is a supporting portion 22a that does not rotate. It is possible to prevent a problem that there is a risk of damaging the carcass band side portion CBS by abutting against the carcass band.

  At this time, the circumferentially extending region of each roller rotating shaft support portion 22a or 22b corresponding to one folding roller 24 or 23 is positioned within the circumferentially extending region of the other folding roller 23 or 24. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the portion of the carcass band side portion CBS that is not pressure-bonded by any of the rollers 24 and 23 from remaining.

  In the above description, the carcass band folding device 10 has been described as being mounted on the tire molding drum 1 having one core body 60 and positioned in the center in the axial direction, but this can be moved away from each other in the axial direction. It can be similarly mounted on a tire molding drum having a pair of core bodies provided, and similar effects can be achieved.

  FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view showing a pair of core body tire molding drums that are spaced apart and approaching each other in the axial direction, corresponding to FIG. 1, and the same parts as those in FIG. FIG. 7A shows a state in which the diameter of the pair of bead lock means 7 and the core body 60B is increased and these bead lock means 7 are displaced in proximity, and FIG. 1B shows the bead lock means 7. In addition, the diameter of the core body 60B is reduced, and the bead lock means 7 and the core body 60B are separated and displaced in the axial direction.

  Also in this tire molding drum, the pair of bead lock means 7 and the pair of carcass band folding means 10 are mounted on the slider 4 so as to be spaced apart from each other in the axial direction of the molding drum. This is the same as that shown in FIG.

  1 differs from that shown in FIG. 1 in that the core bodies 60B form a pair, and the pair of core bodies 60B are mounted on the slider 4 so as to be spaced apart from each other in the axial direction and arranged in a ring in the circumferential direction. The plurality of rigid body segments 60C are configured so that the segment expansion / contraction mechanism 63 displaces each rigid body segment 60C through the link 62 along the guides 65A and 65B. In this embodiment, the green tires having different widths can be molded without replacing the core body 60B by moving the pair of core bodies 60B apart from each other.
