There are many types of wheel hubs according to diameter, width, molding method, and material. The wheel hub generally includes the rim, spokes, flange, bead seat, etc.

[0003] After the existing wheel hub is machined, it needs to be tested for its balance. In the existing production process, the wheel hub is generally placed in the input frame, and the roller on the conveying frame rotates to convey the wheel hub along the conveying frame to the testing platform. Then, it is manually taken off the conveying frame and placed on the testing platform. The manual operation efficiency is low, and the weight of the wheel hub is heavy, so the manual labor is also large during transportation, and the effect is not ideal;

[0033] When the present embodiment is in use, the wheel hub 100 is operated through the input frame 10, and is transported backward until it is close to the elastic anti-collision block 12. At this time, the wheel hub 100 is sensed by the first proximity switch 13, indicating that it has moved into position. Then, the moving servo motor 581 is operated to make the moving block 51 move to the left, so that the third proximity switch 5 on the left senses the rear sensing block fixed on the rear wall surface of the moving block 51, indicating that it has moved into position.

[0035] If the product is unqualified, the shaft of the rotating cylinder 53 is rotated 180° so that the sensing block 542 is approached by the sensing end of the second proximity switch 3 on the left. At this time, the wheel hub 100 is directly above the unqualified product placement rack 70, and is pushed by the push rod of the lifting cylinder 55 to place the wheel hub 100 on the top surface of the unqualified product placement rack 70. The two clamping blocks 65 are separated to achieve placement. Then, the push rod of the lifting cylinder 55 is retracted, and the shaft of the rotating cylinder 53 is rotated and reset, so that subsequent processing, grasping and testing of the wheel hub 100, etc. can be carried out, which is very convenient.

[0036] It greatly reduces manual labor, has high use effect and high detection efficiency.
