[0052] The present invention is described below with specific embodiments, but they are not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0053] Embodiment 1

[0054] like Figure 1-Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment, a wheel hub grinding device is provided, including a rotatable main shaft 1, one end of the main shaft 1 is connected to the working end 5 of the robot arm, and a motor for driving the main shaft 1 to rotate is also installed on the working end 5 of the robot arm, and a connecting disk 101 is fixed to the end of the main shaft 1; the lower surface of the connecting disk 101 is symmetrically rotatably connected to two rotating blocks 2; the two rotating blocks 2 are connected to a plurality of brackets 3 through connecting rods 301, each bracket 3 corresponds to two connecting rods 301, and the axes of the two connecting rods 301 on the same bracket 3 coincide, and the plurality of brackets 3 are C-shaped, and a brush wire is provided on the outer arc surface of each bracket 3, and the material of the brush wire is a wire brush.

[0055] Working principle:

[0056] Annular grinding mode: When the wheel hub needs to be fully polished in an annular or circumferential manner, the two rotating blocks 2 rotate to fit the lower surface of the connecting plate 101, and the multiple brackets 3 on the two rotating blocks 2 form a ring body, and the brush wires on the two rotating blocks 2 will form a complete ring-shaped array (such as Figure 1 At this time, the main shaft 1 rotates to drive the connecting disc 101 and the two rotating blocks 2 (and the brush wires thereon) to rotate together, thereby achieving comprehensive annular grinding of the wheel hub.

[0057] Sector grinding mode: If a specific area of ​​the hub (such as the spoke gap or local unevenness) needs to be focused on grinding, the two rotating blocks 2 rotate downward synchronously, and the two rotating blocks 2 will eventually fit together. At this time, the two rotating blocks 2 are vertically connected to the disk 101. In this state, the two rotating blocks 2 will fit together, and their brush wires will form a sector shape (such as Figure 2 As shown). The main shaft 1 rotates to drive the connecting disk 101 and the two rotating blocks 2 (and the brush wires thereon) to rotate together, and the path swept by the fan-shaped brush wires is hemispherical, so as to achieve targeted local grinding.

[0058] In order to drive the two rotating blocks 2 to rotate on the connecting disk 101, so as to realize the switching of the brush wire between the ring shape and the fan shape, a driving mechanism 4 is also included, which includes a slider 401, and the slider 401 is arranged on the main shaft 1. An electric push rod 404 is installed on the working end 5 of the robot arm. The output shaft of the electric push rod 404 is parallel to the main shaft 1, and a shift fork 405 is fixed to the end of the output shaft of the electric push rod 404. A sliding sleeve 403 is sleeved on the main shaft 1 and located above the slider 401. The lower end of the sliding sleeve 403 is fixedly connected to the slider 401. An annular groove 4031 is provided on the side wall of the sliding sleeve 403, and the shift fork 405 is inserted into the annular groove 4031. When the electric push rod 404 is started, the electric push rod 404 drives the shift fork 405 to move, and the shift fork 405 can drive the slider 401 and the sliding sleeve 403 to slide on the main shaft 1 through the annular groove 4031. The sliding direction of the slider 401 is along the axial direction of the main shaft 1. Figure 8-Figure 9 As shown, a through long groove 102 is opened on the side wall of the main shaft 1, and a horizontal block 4011 sliding in the long groove 102 is fixed on the slider 401, so that the slider 401 rotates synchronously with the main shaft 1; two push-pull rods 402 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lower surface of the slider 401, and the upper ends of the push-pull rods 402 are hinged on the lower surface of the slider 401, and the lower ends of the push-pull rods 402 are hinged on the side wall of the rotating block 2 on the same side; when the slider 401 slides downward, the two push-pull rods 402 push the rotating block 2 on the same side downward to rotate; when the slider 401 slides upward, the two push-pull rods 402 pull the rotating block 2 on the same side upward to rotate, thereby realizing the free switching of the brush filaments between the ring shape and the fan shape.

[0059] Embodiment 2

[0060] like Figure 5-Figure 7 As shown, on the basis of the above embodiment, in order to open multiple brackets 3 at different angles so as to unfold the brush wires on adjacent brackets 3, the push-pull rod 402 is a telescopic rod, and on the two rotating blocks 2, the bracket 3 closest to the rotating shaft of the rotating block 2 is fixed to the corresponding rotating block 2 through the connecting rod 301, and the remaining brackets 3 are rotatably connected through the connecting rod 301; multiple pressure rods 7 are fixed on the slider 401, and multiple tooth plates 8 are arranged at the lower ends of the multiple pressure rods 7. The multiple tooth plates 8 are meshed with the multiple connecting rods 301 rotatably connected to the rotating block 2 one by one, and the side wall of the rotating block 2 is provided with a slot 201 for the tooth plate 8 to be inserted. Among them, the tooth distribution height of the multiple tooth plates 8 on the same pressure rod 7 gradually extends downward from the inside to the outside.

[0061] like Figure 6 As shown, when the slider 401 moves downward with the pressure rod 7, the teeth of the outermost tooth plate 8 first mesh with the corresponding connecting rod 301, and the connecting rod 301 is driven to rotate by the tooth plate 8, and the outermost bracket 3 rotates first. As the pressure rod 7 moves downward, the teeth of the tooth plate 8 from the outside to the inside are meshed with the corresponding connecting rod 301 in turn, causing multiple brackets 3 to open at different angles, thereby realizing the bracket 3 being unfolded to the following angles: Figure 7 Status shown.

[0062] Embodiment 3

[0063] like Fig.11 As shown, on the basis of the second embodiment, in order to realize the extension and retraction of the push-pull rod 402, the push-pull rod 402 includes a first rod 4021 and a second rod 4022, the upper end of the first rod 4021 is hinged to the lower surface of the slider 401, the lower end of the second rod 4022 is hinged to the side wall of the rotating block 2, and the upper end of the second rod 4022 is slidably inserted into the interior of the first rod 4021; the interior of the first rod 4021 is slidably connected with an end block 4023, and the end block 4023 is fixed to the interior of the second rod 4022, the end block 4023 is used to limit the upper end of the second rod 4022 to the interior of the first rod 4021, and the interior of the first rod 4021 is provided with a spring 4024 for pressing the end block 4023 downward.

[0064] When switching:

[0065] The first switching: the brush wire switches from a ring shape to a fan shape;

[0066] The main shaft 1 stops rotating, and the robot arm moves the main shaft 1 to a vertical state through the robot arm working end 5. The connecting disk 101 is located below the main shaft 1. At this time, the electric push rod 404 is used to push the slider 401 downward, and the rotating block 2 rotates downward. All the brackets 3 are fan-shaped and close together (in order to enable the brackets 3 to rotate and there will be no rotation interference between adjacent brackets 3, gaps are allowed between the brackets 3 to ensure that multiple brackets 3 can be rotated and opened). When the two rotating blocks 2 rotate to the vertical connecting disk 101, the slider 401 continues to move downward. At this time, the slider 401 continues to slide with the pressure rod 7 (the push-pull rod 402 contracts). When the tooth plate 8 at the lower end of the pressure rod 7 is inserted into the slot 201 of the rotating block 2, the tooth plate 8 drives the corresponding connecting rod 301 to rotate, so that the multiple brackets 3 are opened. After the slider 401 stops, the multiple brackets 3 remain Figure 7 The state shown, in this state, the path swept by the brush wire is hemispherical, achieving targeted local grinding.

[0067] In addition, in this state, the intervals between the brush filaments on adjacent brackets 3 are increased, which effectively promotes the natural shedding of debris, improves the self-cleaning ability of the brush filaments, and reduces maintenance costs.

[0068] The second switching: the brush filament switches from fan shape to ring shape;

[0069] The electric push rod 404 pulls the slider 401 upward, and the slider 401 first pulls the tooth plate 8 out of the slot 201, and the push-pull rod 402 starts to move. When the tooth plate 8 is pulled out of the slot 201, the push-pull rod 402 ends its movement and continues to slide the slider 401 upward. At this time, the push-pull rod 402 pulls the rotating block 2 to rotate upward. When the rotating block 2 is attached to the lower surface of the connecting disk 101, the lowest bracket 3 supports the upper bracket 3.

[0070] A pressing block 6 is also fixed on the side wall of the connecting plate 101. Figure 2 As shown, when the rotating block 2 rotates to fit against the lower surface of the connecting disk 101, the pressing block 6 presses the uppermost bracket 3. With the cooperation of the pressing block 6 and the lowermost bracket 3, the remaining brackets 3 can be restrained and fixed, so that the multiple brackets 3 are in a stable ring shape.

[0071] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate rather than limit the technical solutions of the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention can still be modified or replaced by equivalents. Any modification or partial replacement that does not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
