Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of tire pressure monitoring, in particular to a system for automatically attaching a TPMS sensor inside the tire.
- TPMS sensor is a kind of sensor that can detect the internal pressure and temperature of the running tire and locate the position of the tire. It can effectively evaluate the current state of the tire and promptly remind the driver that the tire pressure is unstable and the temperature is too high. The driver makes corresponding measures. Secondly, the tire temperature, tire pressure and other data of the mobile phone are used for statistics to estimate the full life cycle of the tire.
- the sensors are manually attached.
- the specific steps are as follows: cleaning, polishing the tire (inner side), cleaning and polishing the rubber foam, applying vulcanizing agent, drying, attaching the sensor, and touching a layer of adhesive around the sensor.
- the labor intensity of workers is high, the efficiency is low (according to statistics, 120s/min), and the cost of tires is high.
- artificial grinding and gluing may damage the inner liner, and if the gluing is not in place, the tire will leak air, which will result in waste tires.
- the traditional TPMS sensor binding is to obtain the tire internal sensor ID number through the signal excitation of the inspection tool one by one, and then match the wheel position with the receiver, which is not only troublesome, but also the inspection tool adds a large part of the cost of the system.

如图15所示,所述放开驱动机构113包括推动气缸B1131以及与推动气缸B1131驱动连接的伺服电机B1132,所述伺服电机B 1132的输出轴B1133输出端安装有联轴器B1134,所述推动气缸B1131推动伺服电机B1131朝向轮胎放置工装传动轴348方向移动,以使输出轴B1133通过联轴器1134与传动轴348连接,伺服电机B1132驱动传动轴348转动,第一 梯形丝杠与第二梯形丝杠彼此原来,使得轮胎放置工装由夹持状态转换成放开状态;推动气缸B退回,输出轴B与传动轴断开连接;可选地,所述伺服电机B1132滑动连接安装在安装底座1135上;

所述推料组件通过连接组件与伺服电机B连接,使得驱动气缸B驱动伺服电机B朝向前侧移动时,推料组件也朝向胎侧方向移动;
所述下料提升辊筒线1122与上料提升辊筒线422之间设有中间辊筒线242,所述中间辊筒线设有阻挡气缸243;则处于下料提升辊筒线上的轮胎放置工装可以经由中间辊筒线242移送至上料提升辊筒线,且阻挡气缸的作用在于,若上料工位的轮胎放置工装还未完成上料任务,则处于中间辊筒线上的轮胎放置工装则停止前行。
通过本发明提供的轮胎上下料装置,轮胎放置工装可以在不带有驱动机构的情况沿输送线前行,通过上下料装置,使得轮胎放置工装在夹持状态与放开状态之间自由切换,该上下料装置适用于多种生产线,应用方便广泛。

烘干工位处的接近开关检测到轮胎放置工装到达烘干工位后,第四阻挡气缸伸出阻挡轮胎放置工装前行,烘干风嘴进入轮胎内部对硫化剂进行烘干使其达到粘稠状;烘干工作完成后,右侧倍速链输送线将其输送到粘贴工位;
待轮胎放置工装达到粘贴工位后,第五阻挡气缸伸出使得到达粘贴工位的轮胎放置工装止行,粘贴工位的第四机械手带动抓取机构抓取传感器并将其放在轮内侧胎冠底部贴合区域,然后压实轮对传感器进行适度的按压;然后第四机械手带动粘贴组件退回至原位,第五阻挡气缸放行;轮胎放置工装经由后侧的辊筒输送线到达涂胶工位;其中,第四机械手在抓取传感器时,其前端带有的扫码器会判断传感器料盒里有没有传感器,其次将抓取的传感器ID与轮胎信息绑定,并将相应数据同步到***后台;
待轮胎放置工装达到涂胶工位后,第六阻挡气缸伸出使得到达涂胶工位的轮胎放置工装止行,涂胶工位的第四机械手带动刷胶手柄伸入轮内侧胎冠底部贴合区域涂抹胶粘剂;涂抹完成后,第三机械手带动涂胶组件退回至原位,第六阻挡气缸放行;轮胎放置工装经由后侧的辊筒输送线到达下料工位;
