[0039] The right centering device includes a right centering block 403, which is slidably connected to the centering bracket 401 through a right centering guide rail, and a right centering nut 406 is provided below the right centering block 403, and the right centering nut 406 is fixedly connected to the left centering block 402, and the right centering nut 406 is connected to a right-hand screw 407 through a thread, and both ends of the right-hand screw 407 are hinged at the lower end of the centering bracket 401;
[0040] The left-hand screw 404 and the right-hand screw 407 are connected by an intermediate shaft 408, and transmission gears 409 are provided at both ends of the intermediate shaft 408.

When the wheel is lifted between the left centering block 402 and the right centering block 403 by the supporting wheel support 307, the lifting cylinder 303 stops working, and the hydraulic motor of the centering mechanism 4 starts working. The hydraulic motor is connected to the left-hand screw through a coupling, and the left-hand screw 404 rotates to drive the left centering nut 405. Because the left centering nut 405 is fixedly connected to the left centering block 402, the left centering block 402 is connected to the left centering slide rail. The connecting bracket, i.e., the left-handed screw 404 and the left centering nut 405, is a ball screw substructure, i.e., the rotation of the left-handed screw 404 drives the left centering nut 405 to move right, i.e., drives the left centering block 402 to move right, the left-handed screw 404 is connected to the right-handed screw 407 through the intermediate shaft 408, and the two ends of the intermediate shaft 408 are connected to the left-handed screw 404 and the right-handed screw 407 through gears, i.e., when the left-handed screw 404 rotates, it drives the right-handed screw 407 to rotate synchronously, the right-handed screw 407 and the right centering nut 406 form a ball screw substructure, the right-handed screw 407 drives the right centering block 403 to move left, and the hydraulic motor synchronously drives the left centering block 402 and the right centering block 403 to do relative motion, so that the left centering block 402 and the right centering block 403 clamp the wheel, and the wheel is in the middle of the centering mechanism 4.

The centering mechanism 206 includes a centering cylinder 2073, a centering pad 2070 and a centering sleeve 2064. The centering pad 2070 is arranged at the lower end of the centering cylinder 2073. The centering pad 2070 is fixedly arranged above the installation centering hole 2071. The centering sleeve 2064 is fixedly connected to the centering pad 2070. A plurality of positioning pins 2068 are arranged at the lower end of the centering sleeve 2064. There are at least three positioning pins 2068.

After the centering mechanism 4 has clamped the wheel, the lifting cylinder 201 of the centering and measuring mechanism 2 starts to work. The lifting cylinder 201 pushes the lifting slide 203 to move along the lifting slide 202, and then the rotary mechanism, the centering mechanism 206 and the detection mechanism 205 are moved downward as a whole, so that the shield 207 of the detection mechanism 205 is inserted into the middle inner diameter of the wheel, and the centering cylinder 2073 of the centering mechanism 206 is started. The centering cylinder 2073 pushes the tightening block 2067 downward, and the tightening block 2067 hits the positioning pin 2068, so that the positioning pin 2068 moves outward until the centering contact 2069 at the outer end of the positioning pin 2068 is completely pressed against the inner wall of the wheel. It is worth noting that It should be noted that the extension amount of the locating pin 2068 is the same. If the center of the centering mechanism 206 does not coincide with the center of the inner diameter of the wheel, when the locating pin 2068 of the centering mechanism 206 is extended and retracted, it will not be able to be centered due to the asynchronous contact with the inner wall of the wheel. At this time, the two-way floating mechanism 204 starts to work, and the lower connecting plate 2042 and the partition 2041 of the two-way floating mechanism 204 will work passively. The passive work is to receive the reaction force of the locating pin 2068 and the inner wall of the wheel. Under the action of the reaction force, the lower connecting plate 2042 and the partition 2041 move forward, backward, left and right until the center of the centering mechanism 206 completely coincides with the wheel mechanism, driving the centering mechanism 206 and the detection mechanism 205 to move, thereby avoiding measurement errors and improving accuracy.After the centering mechanism 206 is centered with the wheel, the detection mechanism 205 starts to work, and the detection cylinder 2056 works to push the front slider 2062 and the rear slider 2063 of the detection slider to move relative to each other, and the front slider 2062 and the rear slider 2063 gradually move away from each other, that is, the detection cylinder 2056 pushes the left slider 2059 and the right slider 2060 to move at the same time, and the left slider 2059 and the right slider 2060 move along the detection slide rail 2052, and the left slider 2059 drives the lower contact 2055 fixedly connected thereto to move outward, and the right slider 2055 drives the lower contact 2055 fixedly connected thereto to move outward. The slider 2060 drives the upper contact 2054 fixedly connected thereto to move outward, that is, to move out of the shield 207, until the upper contact 2054 and the lower contact 2055 at both ends contact the inner wall of the wheel. The upper contact 2054 is pressed against the inner wall of the wheel under the action of the right cylinder. The right sensor detects the distance between the upper contact 2054 and the stopper 2061, and transmits the information to the external control system. The control system calculates the diameter of the inner upper end surface of the wheel. The lower contact 2055 is pressed against the inner wall of the wheel under the action of the left cylinder. The left sensor 205 8 detects the distance between the upper contact 2054 and the lower contact 2055 at both ends, and transmits the information to the external control system, which calculates the diameter of the lower end surface of the wheel. The above process takes about 3 or 4 seconds. The thrust of the detection cylinder is a fixed value. The thrust is small and will not damage the upper detection rod and the lower detection rod. Because at the beginning, the distance between the upper contact 2054 and the lower contact 2055 at both ends is a fixed value, the distance between the detection sensor and the stopper 2061 is a fixed value, and the distance moved by the upper contact 2054 and the lower contact 2055 is That is, twice the distance between the detection sensor and the stopper 2061, that is, the diameter inside the wheel can be calculated, and then the rotary cylinder rotates 90° to make the upper contact 2054 and the lower contact 2055 measure the diameter in the vertical direction. The external control system is the existing technology, and this manual will not explain it in detail, such as PLC controller, etc. The above-mentioned detection sensor, left sensor 2058 and right sensor 2057 are all displacement sensors, and the upper contact 2054 and the lower contact 2055 are made of bearing steel.
[0050] A pneumatic assembly box and an electrical assembly box are provided on both sides of the gantry frame 1 , and the pneumatic assembly box and the electrical assembly box are connected to the roller conveyor 5 , the lifting mechanism 3 , the centering mechanism 4 and the centering and measuring mechanism 2 .
[0051] The working process of the present invention is as follows: when the roller conveyor 5 conveys the wheel to the top of the lifting mechanism 3, it stops working, and the lifting cylinder 303 is started. The working end of the lifting cylinder 303 pushes the bracket support seat 304 to move the lifting bracket 306 upward, and the slider mounting seats 305 on both sides of the lifting bracket 306 slide along the guide rail mounting seat 301, and then the roller support 307 above the lifting bracket 306 will lift the wheel to separate the wheel from the roller conveyor 5. Under the push of the roller support 307, the wheel enters the centering mechanism 4. When the wheel is lifted by the roller support 307 to between the left centering block 402 and the right centering block 403, the lifting cylinder 303 stops working, and the hydraulic motor of the centering mechanism 4 starts working. The hydraulic motor is connected to the left-hand screw through a coupling. The left-hand screw 404 rotates and drives the left centering nut 405, because the left centering nut 405 is fixedly connected to the left centering block 402, and the left centering block 402 is connected to the bracket through the centering slide rail, that is, the left-hand screw 404 and the left centering nut 405 are a ball screw substructure, that is, the rotation of the left-hand screw 404 drives the left centering nut 405 to move right, that is, drives the left centering block 402 to move right, and the left-hand screw 404 is connected to the right-hand screw 407 through the intermediate shaft 408, and the two ends of the intermediate shaft 408 are connected to the left-hand screw 404 and the right-hand screw 407 through gears, that is, when the left-hand screw 404 rotates, it drives the right-hand screw 407 to rotate synchronously, and the right-hand screw 407 and the right centering nut 406 form a ball screw substructure, and the right-hand screw 407 drives The right centering block 403 moves to the left, and the hydraulic motor synchronously drives the left centering block 402 and the right centering block 403 to make relative movement, so that the left centering block 402 and the right centering block 403 clamp the wheel, and the wheel is in the middle of the centering mechanism 4. After the centering mechanism 4 clamps the wheel, the lifting cylinder 201 of the centering and measuring mechanism 2 starts to work, and the lifting cylinder 201 pushes the lifting slide 203 to move along the lifting slide 202, and then moves the rotary mechanism, the centering mechanism 206 and the detection mechanism 205 downward as a whole, so that the shield 207 of the detection mechanism 205 is inserted into the middle inner diameter of the wheel, and the centering cylinder 2073 of the centering mechanism 206 is started, and the centering cylinder 2073 pushes the tightening block 2067 downward, and the tightening block 2067 hits the positioning pin shaft 20 68, so that the positioning pin shaft 2068 moves outward until the centering contact 2069 at the outer end of the positioning pin shaft 2068 is completely pressed against the inner wall of the wheel. It is worth noting that the extension amount of the positioning pin shaft 2068 is the same. If the center of the centering mechanism 206 does not coincide with the center of the inner diameter of the wheel, when the positioning pin shaft 2068 of the centering mechanism 206 is extended and retracted, it will not be able to be centered due to the asynchronous contact with the inner wall of the wheel. At this time, the two-way floating mechanism 204 starts to work, and the lower connecting plate 2042 and the partition 2041 of the two-way floating mechanism 204 will work passively. The passive work is to receive the reaction force of the positioning pin shaft 2068 and the inner wall of the wheel. Under the action of the reaction force, the lower connecting plate 2042 and the partition 2041 move forward, backward, left and right.Until the center of the centering mechanism 206 is completely coincident with the wheel mechanism, the centering mechanism 206 and the detection mechanism 205 are driven to move, so as to avoid measurement errors and improve accuracy. After the centering mechanism 206 is centered with the wheel, the detection mechanism 205 starts to work, and the detection cylinder 2056 works to push the front slider 2062 and the rear slider 2063 of the detection slider to move relative to each other, and the front slider 2062 and the rear slider 2063 gradually move away from each other, that is, the detection cylinder 2056 pushes the left slider 2059 and the right slider 2060 to move at the same time, and the left slider 2059 and the right slider 2060 move along the detection slide rail 2052, and the left slider 2059 drives the lower contact fixedly connected thereto to move outward, and the right slider 2060 drives the upper contact fixedly connected thereto to move outward, that is, moves out of the shield 207, until the upper contacts 2054 and the lower contacts 2055 at both ends contact the inner wall of the wheel, and the upper contacts 2054 and 2055 are moved outward. When the point contacts the inner wall of the wheel, the information is transmitted to the right sensor 2057, the right sensor 2057 detects the distance between the point and the stopper 2061, and transmits the information to the external control system, and the control system calculates the diameter of the upper end surface of the wheel. When the lower contact point contacts the inner wall of the wheel, the information is transmitted to the left sensor 2058, the left sensor 2058 detects the distance between the point and the stopper 2061, and transmits the information to the external control system, and the control system calculates the diameter of the lower end surface of the wheel. Because at the beginning, the distance between the upper and lower contacts at both ends is a fixed value, the distance between the detection sensor and the stopper 2061 is a fixed value, and the distance moved by the upper and lower contacts is twice the distance moved by the detection sensor and the stopper 2061, that is, the diameter of the wheel can be calculated. The external control system is a prior art, and this manual will not be described in detail, such as a PLC controller, etc.,
[0052] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, several changes and improvements can be made without departing from the overall concept of the present invention, which should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
