Balancing machine for balancing vehicle wheels

Abstract

The balancing machine for balancing vehicle wheels comprises a base frame supporting a balancing shaft for balancing a vehicle wheel and illumination means for illuminating the wheel which comprise a plurality of light sources arranged substantially around the balancing shaft.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to balancing machines for balancing vehicle wheels. Background technique [0002] It is known that the wheels of vehicles on the road require frequent balancing operations involving the fitting to the rim of small balancing weights made of lead or other material suitable to counteract the effect of the weight on the tyres. Uneven distribution. [0003] In order to perform this operation, balancing machines generally use a horizontal axis of rotation called a "balancer shaft", on which the wheel to be balanced must be placed integrally by means of one or more centering and securing components. [0004] Once the wheel has rotated on the balance shaft, a measure of wheel imbalance is determined by means of a series of electronic or electromechanical devices such as force sensors mounted along the balance shaft. [0005] For the unbalance measurement, other characteristic measurements are usually added, such as wheel roundness measu...
