Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of wheel hub processing technology, specifically to a wheel hub contour full-circumference chamfering machine. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, full-circumference chamfering of wheel hubs refers to chamfering the entire circumference of the wheel hub. Chamfering refers to the machining process of cutting the edges of a workpiece into a certain bevel. In machining, the sharp, pointed edges at the intersections of surfaces on the outer surfaces of machine parts can easily cause injury and affect assembly performance. These edges need to be smoothed out, becoming blunt surfaces – this is what is commonly referred to as chamfering.
[0003] Currently, all wheel hub chamfering uses lever chamfering machines. A lever chamfering machine is a specialized machine for chamfering the edges and corners of objects. Chamfering machines are commonly used to process the edges and corners of materials such as metal, plastic, and glass, and are frequently used in industrial manufacturing, construction, automotive, and aerospace industries. The main function of a chamfering machine is to change the shape of an object's edges and corners, making them smoother, rounder, or more beveled. However, lever chamfering machines cannot adjust the chamfering size and cannot adapt well to different wheel hub shapes, resulting in poor chamfering accuracy. Summary of the Invention

The chamfering blade is connected to the spindle motor via a tool holder. The spindle motor is fixed on the Z-axis slide. The Z-axis slide is equipped with a lead screw adjustment device, which is fixed to the column.
[0007] As a further improvement, a cam bolt needle roller bearing is provided below the chamfering blade. The height of the chamfering blade in the cam bolt needle roller bearing is adjusted by a screw adjustment device to achieve adjustment of the chamfer size around the entire circumference of the wheel hub. The cam bolt needle roller bearing is fixed to the Z-axis slide plate by a fixing seat.

The gravity mechanism includes a chain 3, three sprockets, and a tension wheel 4. The first sprocket 5 and the second sprocket 6 are arranged parallel to each other below the X-axis slide 10, and the third sprocket 7 is arranged below the second sprocket 6. All three sprockets are fixed to the frame. The chain 3 passes through and connects the three sprockets. A balance block 8 is provided at the end of the chain 3 below the first sprocket 5, and a counterweight block 9 is provided at the other end of the chain 3 below the third sprocket 7. The balance block 8 weighs 4 kg, and the counterweight block 9 weighs 1 kg. The chain 3 is fixed to the X-axis slide 10 in the middle by several latches 14. A column 13 is provided on the X-axis slide 10, and the chamfering mechanism is fixed to the column 13. The chamfering mechanism is equipped with a protective cover 30. The protective panel on the front side of the protective cover 30 is equipped with a display screen 31 and a control button group 32. The top of the protective cover 30 is equipped with an indicator light 33. The wheel hub clamping fixture 27 is equipped with a protective plate 34.
[0024] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the chamfering mechanism includes a spindle motor 22, a chamfering blade 15, a Z-axis slide 16, and a lead screw adjustment device. The chamfering blade 15 is connected to the spindle motor 22 via a tool holder 17. The spindle motor 22 is fixed on the Z-axis slide 16. The Z-axis slide 16 is equipped with a lead screw adjustment device, which includes a lead screw 20 and an adjustment knob 21. The lead screw 20 is fixed to the column 13 by bolts. A cam bolt needle roller bearing 18 is provided below the chamfering blade 15. The cam bolt needle roller bearing 18 includes an outer ring 35, needles 36, a retaining ring 37, and a bearing bolt 38. The height of the chamfering blade 15 within the cam bolt needle roller bearing 18 is adjusted by the lead screw adjustment device to achieve adjustment of the full circumference chamfer size of the wheel hub. The cam bolt needle roller bearing 18 is fixed to the Z-axis slide 16 via a fixing seat 19. By adjusting knob 21, the Z-axis slide 16 is moved up and down, thereby controlling the height of the chamfering blade 15 within the cam bolt needle roller bearing 18, thus controlling the chamfer size, which can be controlled within 0.3-2.5±0.2mm.
[0025] As attached Figure 1As shown, the hub rotation mechanism includes a rotary motor 23, a rotary spindle 24, and a clamping cylinder 25.

The top of the rotary spindle 24 is provided with a hub clamping fixture 27, which clamps the hub 29 to be processed.
[0026] In actual operation, the whole machine is controlled by PLC control cabinet 1. The manual person puts the wheel hub 29 to be processed into the wheel hub clamping fixture 27 and starts the start button in the control button group 32. The wheel hub rotation mechanism starts to rotate the wheel hub 29. The chamfering blade 15 of the chamfering mechanism moves forward to fit the entire circumference of the wheel hub for chamfering. Due to the gravity mechanism, the balance block 8 will keep the X-axis slide plate 10 moving forward, and the chamfering blade 15 will fit the entire circumference with the wheel hub 29 as it rotates. After the full circumference chamfering is completed, the motor 2 is disengaged to return the chamfering mechanism to its original position, waiting for the next repeat of the work.
