[0002] The automobile flywheel is a disc-shaped part with a large moment of inertia, which acts like an energy storage device. For a four-stroke engine, work is performed once every four piston strokes, that is, only the power stroke performs work, while the exhaust, intake and compression strokes all consume work. Shot blasting is an important part of the casting process of automobile flywheel housings. It is achieved by shot blasting machines. The high-speed projectiles thrown by the shot blasting machine are used to clean or strengthen the surface of the casting. The shot blasting machine can simultaneously perform sand dropping, core removal and cleaning operations on the castings. When the shot blasting machine is operating, the flywheel housing needs to be placed on a rack, and then the rack and the workpiece are synchronously fed into the shot blasting machine.

[0015] Step 1: During operation, hang the flywheel housing of the car on the hanging rods around the pillars, make the flywheel housing close to the limit plate at one end of the hanging rod, and use the hand wheel to rotate the screw on the clamping seat so that the rubber head at one end of the screw presses the flywheel housing to achieve the effect of squeezing and fixing;

[0022] 2. By setting a limit plate and a clamping seat at one end of the hanging rod, when in use, the flywheel housing of the car is hung on the hanging rods around the column, so that the flywheel housing is close to the limit plate at one end of the hanging rod, and the screw on the clamping seat is rotated by the hand wheel to make the rubber head at one end of the screw press the flywheel housing to achieve the effect of squeezing and fixing, thereby reducing the high-speed projectile impacting the workpiece during shot blasting, causing the workpiece to fall off from the bracket.
[0023] 3. By setting a water pipe at the upper end of the hanger, after shot blasting, the external water pipe can be connected to the water pipe connecting valve on the outside of the water pipe, so that clean water enters the cross spray pipe along the water pipe, and the water is sprayed onto the workpiece through the nozzle to achieve a quick cleaning effect. Because there are three groups of hanging rods from bottom to top, and the length gradually decreases, the upper layer will not cover the lower layer during cleaning.
[0024] 4. By installing threaded rods on both sides of the upper surface of the base, when the bracket is in use, the weight of the base can be adjusted by installing counterweights on the threaded rods to lower the center of gravity of the bracket.
