Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wheel hubs, and in particular to a device and installation process for installing an integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of society and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, consumers' requirements for the driving and riding comfort of automobiles are also gradually increasing. Automobiles inevitably generate a lot of noise during operation, with tire noise accounting for the largest proportion. To address this issue, a common method is to install an integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure to effectively reduce tire noise during driving. However, since the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure is a ring-shaped elastomer, installing this elastic ring onto the outer wall of the wheel rim and overcoming centrifugal force with its own elasticity requires expanding the body diameter to more than 1.8 times its original size. After installation, the body diameter is 1.5 times larger than before. This installation method, if done manually, is laborious, prone to inaccurate installation, difficult to install without damage to the outer surface of the wheel rim, has a high scrap rate, and cannot be completed quickly and effectively. Therefore, a targeted installation device is needed to solve this problem. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a device and installation process for installing an integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure, thereby solving the problems of time-consuming and labor-intensive installation, low installation efficiency, low installation accuracy, and high usage cost of the existing integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] A device for installing an integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure includes a housing worktable and an installation mechanism. The housing worktable has a central slot. The installation mechanism includes a mounting base with several sets of expansion and contraction mechanisms spaced apart. Each set of expansion and contraction mechanisms is connected to an adjusting spring slot device. The sets of adjusting spring slot devices form a multi-jaw outward V-shaped mechanism. Each expansion and contraction mechanism includes a transmission device and a movable rod. The transmission device is mounted on the mounting base and includes a self-locking device (which can be electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic). The self-locking device fixes the movement position of the transmission device. The control knob is located on the outer wall of the mounting base. The transmission device drives the movable rod to reciprocate. The adjusting spring groove device includes a fixed base. One end of the movable rod passes through the mounting base and the other end is connected to the fixed base. An adjusting round rod is also provided on the fixed base. One end of the adjusting round rod is connected to the fixed base and the other end is used to fit the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure. The movable rods on one or more of the expansion and contraction mechanisms are inserted into the slots to fix the mounting mechanism laterally on the box workbench. The fixed base is provided with a flexible clip. The flexible clip adaptively and tightly connects the wheel hub rim fixing mounting mechanism to complete the subsequent installation.

[0006] Preferably, the mounting base described above is provided with several sets of channels, and each set of channels forms a multi-layer structure with a height difference between the channels. The movable rod is inserted into the channel, and the movable rod forms a polygonal structure with each movable rod.

[0007] Preferably, each of the above-mentioned channels includes two channels, each containing a movable rod. The fixed seats connected to the two movable rods are located in two directions of the mounting base, and the movable end of one movable rod is spaced apart from the side of the fixed seat on the other movable rod.

[0008] Preferably, the aforementioned transmission device and the movable rod rotate relative to each other via a gear and rack, and the power source of the transmission device is manual, electric, hydraulic, or pneumatic.

[0009] Preferably, the aforementioned adjusting rod includes an integrally formed spring plunger screw section and a rod section. The fixing seat is provided with a threaded hole, and the spring plunger screw section is rotatably connected to the threaded hole and fixed by a screw passing through the side of the threaded hole, thereby adjusting the exposed length of the rod section.

[0010] Preferably, the aforementioned adjusting rod is integrally formed, and the threaded hole of the fixing seat is connected to the top of the spring plunger screw section on the adjusting rod.

[0011] Preferably, the aforementioned fixed base is further provided with a flexible locking component, the flexible locking component including a fixing block connected to the fixed base, one end of the fixing block being bent to form a first locking block, and the other end being bent to form a second locking block, a flexible locking groove being formed between the first locking block and the second locking block to adaptively and tightly connect the wheel hub rim fixing and mounting mechanism to complete the subsequent installation.

[0012] An installation process for a device for installing an integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure includes the aforementioned device for installing an integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure, and the specific installation steps are as follows:

[0013] Step 1: Insert one set of movable rods into the slot in the center of the box workbench to fix the installation mechanism horizontally on the box workbench;

[0014] Step 2: Open the control knob of the self-locking device (which can also be electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic), operate the transmission device, and make it drive the movable rod to move along the mounting base, thereby driving the adjusting spring groove device to move towards the mounting base, so that the diameter of the multi-jaw outward V-shaped mechanism is reduced to the minimum.

[0015] Step 3: According to the size of the pre-installed wheel hub, rotate the adjusting rod along the fixed seat to adjust it until the exposed length of the adjusting rod matches the width of the pre-installed wheel hub. Then, fix the adjusting rod to the fixed seat with the spring plunger screw. Finally, put one end of the integrated wheel hub shock absorption and noise reduction structure onto the exposed rod section of each adjusting rod.

[0016] Step 4: Operate the transmission device again to move the adjusting spring groove device in the opposite direction of the mounting seat, and gradually expand the integrated wheel hub shock absorption and noise reduction structure. When it is expanded to the diameter of the pre-installed wheel hub, close the control knob of the self-locking device (which can also be electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic) to fix the position of the expansion and contraction mechanism.

[0017] Step 5: Pick up the installation mechanism from Step 4 and place it on the top of the wheel hub. Slowly lower it vertically along the wheel hub spokes until it completely passes through the wheel hub, then stop lowering it. Then open the control knob of the self-locking device (which can also be electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic), and operate the transmission device again to move the adjusting spring groove device towards the mounting seat. This causes the multi-claw outward V-shaped mechanism to retract inward, and the flexible clamp to tightly connect with the wheel hub spoke rim surface, so that the integrated wheel hub shock absorption and noise reduction structure is tightly attached to the wheel hub rim surface. Then close the control knob of the self-locking device (which can also be electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic) to fix the position of the expansion and contraction mechanism.

[0018] Step Six: Finally, loosen the spring plunger screw between the adjusting rod and the fixed seat. Use the pry bar to pull the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure outward a little, and then pull the adjusting rod upward to separate the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure from the adjusting rod on the multi-jaw outward V-shaped mechanism. Pull out each adjusting rod in turn to complete the installation of the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure on the wheel hub.

[0019] Preferably, the aforementioned mounting base has multiple non-interfering channels and is polygonal in shape, and is equipped with several sets of expansion and contraction mechanisms. Each expansion and contraction mechanism includes a transmission device and a movable rod. The transmission device and the movable rod rotate relative to each other through a gear and rack. The transmission device is powered by a manual handwheel. In step two, the handwheel is rotated counterclockwise, driving the gear and rack-driven expansion and contraction mechanism to contract inward, so that the diameter of the multi-jaw outward V-shaped mechanism is reduced to its minimum. In step four, the handwheel is rotated clockwise, and in step five, the handwheel is rotated counterclockwise.

[0020] Preferably, the aforementioned fixed base is also equipped with a flexible clamp self-adaptive tight connection wheel hub rim fixing and installation mechanism. In step five, the wheel hub spoke is slowly lowered vertically until it completely passes through the wheel hub, until the flexible clamp contacts the outer edge of the wheel hub spoke rim and stops lowering. The self-locking device (which can also be electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic) is released, and the handwheel is slowly rotated counterclockwise to drive the gear and rack transmission expansion and contraction mechanism to retract the multi-jaw outward V-shaped mechanism inward. The flexible clamp is tightly connected to the wheel hub spoke rim surface, and then the self-locking expansion and contraction mechanism is self-locked again by the self-locking device (which can also be electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic).

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0022] (1) The device of the present invention is a special installation device for an integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure. Through the setting of the expansion and contraction mechanism and the adjustment spring groove device, the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure can be expanded and contracted quickly and effectively. The design of the adjustment round bar in the adjustment spring groove device allows the device to install vehicle wheel hubs of various widths (generally 50-600mm tire width). Several sets of adjustment spring groove devices form a multi-claw outward V-shaped mechanism, which can prevent the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure from sliding downward when it is not expanded, making installation convenient.

[0023] (2) The installation process of the present invention utilizes the above-mentioned installation device. The movable rod can be manually or electrically driven to reciprocate along the mounting base to effectively expand and contract the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure. Then, it can be installed on the required wheel hub surface. The operation steps are simple and quick, which can effectively improve the installation efficiency and installation accuracy.

Detailed Implementation

[0035] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions are for the purpose of aiding understanding the present invention, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0036] Example 1

[0037] like Figure 1-10 As shown, a device for installing an integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure includes a housing workbench 1 and an installation mechanism. The housing workbench 1 is provided with a slot 101. The installation mechanism includes a mounting base 2, which has three sets of channels forming a multi-layered structure with height differences between them. Movable rods 3 pass through the channels, forming a polygonal structure between the movable rods 3. Each set of channels includes two channels, each containing a movable rod 3. Fixed seats 5 connected to the two movable rods 3 are located in two directions of the mounting base 2, and there is a gap between the movable end of one movable rod 3 and the side of the fixed seat 5 on the other movable rod 3. The movable rods 3 in the same layer are staggered to prevent interference during expansion and contraction. The six sets of adjusting spring slots form a multi-claw outward V-shaped mechanism. The transmission device includes a self-locking device (which can also be electric or pneumatic). The transmission device (either electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic) uses a self-locking device 12 to fix the movement position of the transmission device. The control knob 4 of the self-locking device 12 (which can also be electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic) is located on the outer wall of the mounting base 2. The transmission device drives the movable rod 3 to reciprocate. An adjusting rod 6 is also installed on the fixed base 5. One end of the adjusting rod 6 is connected to the fixed base 5, and the other end is used to fit the integrated wheel hub shock absorption and noise reduction structure 7. The movable rod 3 on one or more of the expansion and contraction mechanisms is inserted into the slot 101, and the mounting mechanism is horizontally fixed on the box workbench 1. The fixed base is provided with a flexible clip 8, which adaptively and tightly connects to the wheel hub rim 13 to fix the mounting mechanism and complete the subsequent installation. The transmission device and the movable rod 3 rotate relative to each other through a gear and rack. The power source of the transmission device is manual, electric, hydraulic, or pneumatic. The specific installation steps are as follows:

[0038] Step 1: Insert two sets of movable rods 3 into the slots 101 in the center of the box workbench 1, so that the installation mechanism is horizontally fixed on the box workbench 1.

[0039] Step 2: Open the control knob 4 of the self-locking device (which can also be electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic), turn the handwheel 9 counterclockwise, and drive the gear and rack transmission expansion and contraction mechanism to contract inward, so that the diameter of the multi-jaw outward V-shaped mechanism is reduced to the minimum.

[0040] Step 3: According to the size of the pre-installed wheel hub, rotate the adjusting rod 6 along the threaded hole on the fixed seat 5 to adjust it until the exposed length of the adjusting rod 6 matches the width of the pre-installed wheel hub. Then, fix the adjusting rod 6 on the fixed seat 5 through the spring plunger screw 11 that passes through the side of the threaded hole. Then, put one end of the integrated wheel hub shock absorption and noise reduction structure 7 on the exposed rod section 602 of each adjusting rod 6.

[0041] Step 4: Turn the handwheel 9 clockwise to move the adjusting spring groove device in the opposite direction to the mounting base 2, and gradually expand the integrated wheel hub shock absorption and noise reduction structure 7. When it is expanded to the diameter of the pre-installed wheel hub, close the control knob 4 of the self-locking device (which can also be electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic) to fix the position of the expansion and contraction mechanism.

[0042] Step 5: Pick up the installation mechanism in the installation state of Step 4, place it on the top of the wheel hub, and slowly lower it vertically along the wheel hub spokes until it completely passes through the wheel hub. Stop lowering it when the flexible clamp 8 contacts the outer edge of the wheel hub spoke rim 13. Then turn on the control knob 4 and turn the handwheel 9 counterclockwise to drive the gear and rack transmission expansion and contraction mechanism to retract the multi-jaw outward V-shaped mechanism inward. The flexible clamp 8 adaptively and tightly connects to the wheel hub rim 13 surface. Then open the self-locking device (which can also be electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic) to self-lock the expansion and contraction mechanism again.

[0043] Step Six: Finally, loosen the spring plunger screw 11 between the adjusting rod 6 and the fixed seat 5, and use the pry bar device 12 to pull the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure 7 outward a little. Then pull the adjusting rod 6 upward to separate the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure 7 from the adjusting rod 6 on the multi-jaw outward figure-eight mechanism. Pull out each adjusting rod 6 in sequence to complete the installation of the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure 7 on the wheel hub.

[0044] The above embodiments and appendices Figure 1-10 All are equipped with six sets of adjusting spring groove devices. Depending on the usage requirements, other numbers of adjusting spring groove devices can also be set. It should be noted that the channels set on the mounting base 2 should form a multi-layer structure with height differences, and the movable end of the movable rod 3 should not touch the fixed seat 5 on the adjacent movable rod 3. The movable rods 3 in the same layer adopt a staggered design so that they will not interfere with each other during expansion and contraction, ensuring the effective operation of the mounting mechanism.

[0045] The device of this invention is a dedicated installation device for integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structures. Through the expansion and contraction mechanism and the adjustment spring groove device, the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure 7 can be quickly and effectively expanded and contracted. The design of the adjustment rod 6 in the adjustment spring groove device allows the device to install vehicle wheel hubs of various widths (generally 50-600mm tire width). Several sets of adjustment spring groove devices form a multi-claw outward V-shaped mechanism, which prevents the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure 7 from sliding downwards when not expanded, facilitating installation. Simultaneously, the highly integrated box-shaped workbench 1, with its ergonomic design, allows for rapid pre-installation and pre-expansion / contraction of the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure 7, simplifying operation.

[0046] The installation process of this invention utilizes the aforementioned designed installation device. Simply drive the movable rod 3 manually or electrically to reciprocate along the mounting base 2 to effectively expand and contract the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure 7. Then, it is installed onto the desired wheel hub surface. The operation is simple and quick, effectively improving installation efficiency and accuracy. The integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure is pulled outwards slightly by the pry bar device 12 to disassemble the installation mechanism. Utilizing the lever principle, by holding one end and pushing forward, the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure 7 can be easily separated from the adjusting rod 6 of the adjusting spring groove device with one hand. This is simple, convenient, suitable for batch installation, and highly efficient.

[0047] Specifically, the adjusting rod 6 includes an integrally formed spring plunger screw section 601 and a rod section 602. The fixing seat 5 has a threaded hole, and the spring plunger screw section 601 is rotatably connected to the threaded hole and fixed by a spring plunger screw 11 passing through the side of the threaded hole, thereby adjusting the exposed length of the rod section 602. This design allows for more effective adjustment and fixation of the adjusting rod 6. The initial height of the rod 6 must not exceed the height of the wheel hub to be installed, avoiding height interference and improving the ease of product installation.

[0048] Specifically, the adjusting rod 6 is integrally formed, meaning that the spring plunger screw 11 is connected to the top of the spring plunger screw section 601 on the adjusting rod 6. This design allows the integrated wheel hub vibration damping and noise reduction structure 7 to be more stably fixed to the mounting mechanism and then more tightly installed on the wheel hub rim.

[0049] Specifically, the fixed base 5 is also equipped with a flexible locking component 8, which includes a fixing block 801 connected to the fixed base 5. One end of the fixing block 801 is bent to form a first locking block 802, and the other end is bent to form a second locking block 803. A flexible locking groove 804 is formed between the first locking block 802 and the second locking block 803 to adaptively and tightly connect the wheel hub flange 13 to the fixing and installation mechanism to complete the subsequent installation. The above design gives the adjusting spring groove device a flexible adjustment mechanism, which can adapt to wheel hubs with various widths (specifications are 50-600mm tire width), avoids the adjusting round bar 6 from touching the bottom of the tire changer platform due to excessive length, and quickly calibrates the size of the locking groove and the wheel hub flange, facilitating installation and positioning. The flexible locking groove 804 provides convenience for assembly, releases the self-locking function of the expansion and contraction mechanism, reverses the handwheel, and the expansion and contraction mechanism retracts inward and adaptively and tightly connects to the wheel hub flange 13 through the flexible locking groove 804.

[0050] The foregoing description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, details various variations and modifications to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention. However, the invention is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, any modifications, substitutions, and alterations fall within the scope of protection of this invention.
