[0002] At present, the automated transportation of railway wheelsets is mainly completed by AGV carts or ordinary wheelset conveyors. The main defect of AGV carts is that they can only transport wheelsets one by one; and the main defect of ordinary wheelset conveyors is that they can only operate as a whole. When the wheelsets at the input end of the ordinary wheelset conveyor enter randomly, once there is a missing part in the middle of the conveyor, it is difficult to add the wheelset.

[0007] As a further solution of the present invention: the wheel pushing device 3 utilizes the extension and contraction of the push head 5B and the stop head 6B to not only push all the wheel pairs 2 to run simultaneously, but also push only any one wheel pair 2 forward to fill a vacant position in front of this wheel pair 2.

[0008] As a further solution of the present invention: the track 1A includes a plurality of push-pull frames 3B1 that reciprocate and have different travel distances and are arranged in series to push the wheel devices 3 to meet the requirement that the wheel pairs 2 have different spacings on the track 1A.
