The connecting shafts at the left and right ends of the electric roller body 141 are fixed on the two side beams 21.

The infrared transmitter 5 and the infrared receiver 6 are respectively fixed on the two corresponding connecting plates on the left and right. The infrared transmitter 5 irradiates infrared rays to the receiving end of the infrared receiver 6. It can be seen that the position can be adjusted according to the different specifications of the wheel hub blank 100. By rotating the adjusting screw, the front and rear positions of the infrared transmitter 5 and the infrared receiver 6 can be changed, so that it can be ensured that when the wheel hub blank 100 is sensed, it is in the middle of the intermediate conveyor 12;
[0046] A bottom fixing plate 23 is fixed between the front and rear of the middle of the lower part of the two side beams 21 of the upper conveying frame 20, and a double-head pushing cylinder 24 is fixed to the middle of the top surface of the bottom fixing plate 23.

A transmission gear 32 is fixed thereto, which meshes with the intermediate transition gear 282.

The upper conical wall surface is 10° to 15° (12° in this embodiment), and the lower conical wall surface is 65° to 75° (72° in this embodiment). The above angles are adopted so that the bottom of the side wall at the bottom rim of the corresponding hub blank 100 rests on the lower conical wall surface, and the top surface at the bottom rim of the hub blank 100 rests on the upper conical wall surface. When in use, the same hub blank 100 is suitable for a clamping roller body 31 of one specification.

[0058] The material receiving trolley 40 is located directly below the vertical wheel hub blank 100 .
[0059] All the oil cylinders in this embodiment are connected to the control valves in the hydraulic system through connecting pipes. The hydraulic system includes an oil tank, an oil pump and a control valve. It is a conventional structure and will not be described in detail here. All the electrical components in this embodiment are electrically connected to the control host through electrical connecting lines and are controlled by the control host. This is a conventional control structure and will not be described in detail here.
[0060] When this embodiment is used, it includes the following steps:
[0061] (1) The hub blank 100 completed by gravity casting is moved by a handling robot (which can be directly grasped by a six-axis robot, which is an existing conventional equipment and will not be described in detail here) to the motorized roller body 141 of the front conveying frame 11 of the roller conveyor line 10, and is transported backward by the operation of the motorized roller body 141;
[0062] (2) The wheel hub blank 100 is transported to the motorized roller 141 of the upper conveying mechanism 20 of the middle conveying frame 12 of the roller conveyor line 10. As the motorized roller 141 is transported backward, it blocks the infrared rays of the infrared transmitter 5 from being irradiated on the infrared receiver 6, indicating that the wheel hub blank 100 has been transported to the right position. At this time, the control host controls all the motorized rollers 141 on the roller conveyor line 10 to stop running.
[0063] (3) The clamping rollers 31 installed in the upper conveying mechanism 20 of the intermediate conveying frame 12 move to clamp and fix the hub blank 100. Specifically, the control host obtains the sensing signal of the infrared receiver 6, which does not receive the infrared light of the infrared transmitter 5. The control host controls the corresponding control valve (the solenoid valve in this embodiment) of the hydraulic system to operate, so that the ends of the two push rods of the two double-headed pushing cylinders 24 are retracted (the initial state is that the sensing block 251 fixed on the outer wall of the pushing block 25 is close to the sensing end of the corresponding proximity sensor 1, so that it is sensed, and at the same time, the anti-collision layer 214 presses against the side wall of the corresponding rotary drive motor 28 to limit it), so that the hub blank 100 is clamped at the four clamping rollers 31;
[0064] When its position has a certain deviation, the hub blank 100 can be adjusted to the center position and clamped by the four clamping rollers 31 when clamping and closing them (this process is completed within 3 to 5 seconds);
[0065] (4) After 5 seconds, the control host controls the corresponding rotary servo motor 123 to operate, causing the upper conveyor frame 20 to flip upward until the left side wall of the rotating connecting block 22 is sensed by the sensing part of the first sensor 125 and pressed against the top surface of the first limit block 126. At this time, the upper conveying mechanism 20 flips upward by 90°, causing the wheel hub blank 100 to be vertical. At the same time, the first sensor 125 (which is a proximity sensor) transmits a sensing signal to the control host, indicating that it has rotated into place;
[0066] (5) The control host controls the lateral movement servo motor 611 and the lifting servo motor 621 to adjust the left and right and up and down positions of the cutting wheel 66, and pushes the electric push rod 63 to move the cutting wheel 66 to the gate connection of the hub blank 100 to cut it (the left and right and front and back positions of the cutting wheel 66 are adjusted by manually controlling the lateral movement servo motor 611 and the lifting servo motor 621. When the same batch of hub blanks 100 are processed, no further adjustment is required after the first adjustment is completed. The moving position of the cutting wheel 66 pushed by the electric push rod 63 is also stored after the first adjustment is completed. After the processing is completed, the push rod of the electric push rod 63 needs to return to its position. When the second hub blank 100 is moved over for processing, it is extended to the first adjusted position and then cut).
[0067] (6) The rotary drive motor 28 is operated to rotate the clamping roller 31, driving the hub blank 100 to rotate, so that the cutting wheel 66 can cut off the portion of the edge of the hub blank 100 that needs to be cut along the circumference of the hub blank 100, wherein the cutting wheel 66 is operated by the rotary motor to achieve rotation;
[0068] (7) The cut waste falls onto the material receiving trolley 40 below;
[0069] (8) Then, the rotary servo motor 123 is operated, and the upper conveying mechanism 20 is turned downward and returned to its original position;
[0070] (9) After the upper conveying mechanism 20 returns to its original position, the positioning block 71 is moved to the left by pushing the push rod of the oil cylinder 70 laterally, so that the bottom surface of the lateral extension portion 72 is pressed against the bottom surface of the bending plate to achieve locking. Then, the clamping roller body 31 returns to its original position, and all the electric roller bodies 141 run to convey the processed wheel hub blank 100 to the rear conveying frame 13 of the roller conveyor line 10 for further conveying to complete the processing.
[0071] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely representative examples of the present invention. Obviously, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments and is susceptible to numerous variations. Any simple modifications, equivalent variations, and modifications to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention are deemed to fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
