Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of automobile wheels, and particularly relates to an automobile wheel turning device. Background Art

[0002] A wheel hub is a cylindrical metal component that supports the tire inside the tire profile. During the process of machining the wheel hub, after polishing one side of the wheel hub, it is necessary to turn it over to process the other side. When the wheel hub is turned over, the wheel hub is generally conveyed into the turning device through a conveying device on one side for turning. After turning is completed, it is conveyed away through a conveying device on the other side. The conveying device generally uses a roller conveyor. When the existing turning device turns the wheel hub, the conveying device cannot convey the wheel hub and needs to wait for the wheel hub to complete turning and return to the conveying device again before it can be conveyed again, which affects the continuous conveying of the conveying device. Therefore, we have designed an automobile wheel turning device that will not cause the conveying device to pause. Content of the Utility Model

[0015] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Apparently, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0016] An automobile wheel hub flipping device, as Figure 1 、 2 shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, includes a box body 1 for flipping. The box body 1 can be aligned with the side opening of the conveying device. The rear side of the box body 1 communicates with the outside and is rotatably provided with several conveying rollers 2. The box body 1 is provided with a first driving mechanism for driving the conveying rollers 2 to rotate synchronously. It is characterized in that: several box bodies 1 are provided. In this embodiment, four box bodies 1 are provided. Each box body 1 is provided with a first driving mechanism. Rotating shafts 5 are respectively and fixedly installed on the box bodies 1. The rotating shafts 5 are fixedly connected to the output shafts of the first motors 3. The first motors 3 are fixedly connected to the columns 4. The box bodies 1 are evenly distributed in a circumferential manner on the columns 4. The inside of the columns 4 is hollow. The first motors 3 are fixedly installed on the inner walls of the columns 4 through support rods. The output shafts of the first motors 3 are coaxially arranged with the corresponding rotating shafts 5. The outer peripheries of the rotating shafts 5 are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the through holes reserved on the columns 4 through coaxial bearings. One end of the column 4 is fixedly installed with a base 6. The base 6 is provided with a second driving mechanism for driving the column 4 to rotate. The structure of the present utility model is simple and ingenious. When the wheel hub 100 enters the box body 1, the box body 1 can revolve along the axis of the column 4, so as to move away from the conveying device 101 on one side. At the same time, the next box body 1 is aligned with the conveying device 101 again. When the wheel hub 100 enters the box body 1, the box body 1 will complete the flipping of the wheel hub 100 while revolving. After the flipping is completed, the box body 1 is aligned with the conveying device 101 on the other side, and the wheel hub 100 then leaves the box body 1 and is conveyed away by the conveying device 101. During this process, the conveying device 101 does not need to pause and wait for the flipping of the wheel hub 100, realizing continuous feeding, which can meet the actual needs and is suitable for popularization. When using the present utility model, place this device between two conveying devices 101, as Figure 2As shown, the top side of the conveying device 101 and the top side of the conveying roller 2 on the lower side of the box 1 are in the same horizontal plane. The conveying device 101 conveys the wheel hub 100 placed at a distance therefrom into the box 1, and at the same time drives the conveying roller 2 to rotate forwardly through the first driving mechanism, so that the wheel hub 100 can completely enter the box 1. After the wheel hub 100 enters the box 1, the second driving mechanism drives the column 4 to rotate, thereby driving the box 1 to revolve, until the next box 1 is aligned with the conveying device 101. At this time, the next wheel hub 100 is just conveyed to the front of the box 1. After the wheel hub 100 enters the box 1, the first motor 3 can be energized to drive the box 1 to rotate. The box 1 is turned over after rotating one hundred and eighty degrees. When the box 1 revolves to align with the conveying device 101 on the other side, the first driving mechanism drives the conveying roller 2 to rotate in the opposite direction to convey the wheel hub 100 to the conveying device 101. The same is true for other boxes 1. During this process, the conveying device 101 does not need to stop, and continuous conveying can be achieved.

[0017] Specifically, as shown in the figure, the first driving mechanism of the present embodiment includes a second motor 20, the second motor 20 is fixedly mounted on the housing 1, the second motor 20 corresponds to the housing 1 one by one, and coaxial rotating shafts 21 are respectively fixedly mounted on the conveying rollers 2, the inner periphery of the conveying rollers 2 is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 21, the rotating shafts 21 are respectively rotatably mounted in the reserved holes provided on the housing 1 through bearings, the rotating shaft 21 is coaxially arranged with the corresponding bearings, the inner ring of the bearings is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 21, and the outer ring of the bearings is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the reserved hole, and two adjacent rotating shafts 21 are connected through a group of sprockets 22 and chains 23 for transmission, each group has two sprockets 22 and one chain 23, the sprocket 22 is fixedly mounted on one end of the corresponding rotating shaft 21, the rotating shaft 21 is coaxially arranged with the corresponding sprocket 22, and the sprockets 22 in the same group are driven by the chain 23, the other end of one of the rotating shafts 21 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor 20, and the output shaft of the second motor 20 is coaxially arranged with the rotating shaft 21. When the second motor 20 is powered, the second motor 20 drives the corresponding rotating shaft 21 to rotate. The rotating shaft 21 then drives other rotating shafts 21 to rotate through the sprocket 22 and the chain 23, thereby driving the rotating roller 2 to rotate synchronously.

[0018] Specifically, as shown in the figure, the second driving mechanism of this embodiment includes a third motor 30, which is fixedly mounted on the base 6, and the base 6 is rotatably connected to the turntable 31 through a bearing, and the column 4 is fixedly mounted on the turntable 31.
