Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of wheel hub detection devices, and in particular relates to a wheel hub airtight component detection device. Background Art
[0002] After the wheel hub is manufactured, it is usually necessary to conduct an air tightness test. Only the wheel hub that passes the test can be used with the tire. The existing patent text with the publication number CN206832409U discloses a wheel hub air tightness detection device. The existing disclosed detection method is the water immersion detection method, which is to place the wheel hub on a fixture, and then immerse the wheel hub through a water tank to observe whether bubbles are generated in the wheel hub in the water tank. Since the existing wheel hubs are all fixed on the fixture, the wheel hub as a whole cannot be rotated; thus, the outer wall of the wheel hub cannot be observed in all directions. The operator needs to constantly change the position to observe the air tightness of the wheel hub, and the observation process is not convenient. At the same time, during the actual detection process, the direction of the wheel hub cannot be changed arbitrarily, which is not convenient for the operator to accurately locate the leak point. Therefore, it is necessary to design a wheel hub airtightness detection device to overcome the above difficulties. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In response to the problems existing in the prior art, the utility model designs a wheel hub airtight part detection device. The utility model can accurately control the rotation position of the positioning bracket through a deceleration component and a controller. The rotation process of the wheel hub is smoother and the fixing effect is better, which makes it convenient for the operator to observe whether the wheel hub is leaking and quickly find the location of the leak.
[0004] The invention object of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions: a wheel hub airtight parts detection device, comprising a main frame, a driving motor and a cylinder are provided on the main frame, a deceleration assembly for driving the cylinder to rotate is provided between the driving motor and the cylinder; a positioning bracket is provided below the cylinder and rotates synchronously with the cylinder, a hanging shaft connecting the positioning bracket and the cylinder is provided between the positioning bracket and the cylinder, an intermediate pressure plate is provided on the piston shaft of the cylinder; a water tank assembly that can be raised and lowered relative to the positioning bracket is provided below the positioning bracket, and a controller is also provided on the main frame, and the controller is electrically connected to the driving motor.
[0005] Preferably, a first bearing is provided between the oil cylinder and the main frame, a first sleeve is provided on the main frame, and the first bearing is installed in the first sleeve; the hanging shaft and the oil cylinder are fixedly connected, and the first bearing is installed between the first sleeve and the hanging shaft; the positioning bracket is fixedly installed at the end of the hanging shaft; the deceleration assembly includes a first gear, a second gear and a third gear, the first gear is fixedly installed on the oil cylinder, the second gear is installed on the drive motor, and the third gear is installed between the first gear and the second gear; the intermediate pressure plate is arranged toward the bottom of the positioning bracket, and an air inlet nozzle is provided on the piston rod of the oil cylinder.
[0006] When the drive motor is operating, the second gear drives the third gear, which in turn drives the first gear. The first gear is fixedly mounted on the oil cylinder, allowing it to rotate relative to the main frame. The oil cylinder is connected to the positioning bracket via a suspension shaft, allowing the oil cylinder and the positioning bracket to rotate synchronously. An intermediate pressure plate is installed on the oil cylinder's piston shaft, which secures the wheel hub during operation. Since the oil cylinder and the positioning bracket rotate synchronously, the wheel hub does not deflect relative to the positioning bracket during rotation, improving the wheel hub's positioning effect. Furthermore, the wheel hub can rotate freely relative to the main frame, allowing the operator to observe the wheel hub's overall contour from a single location, making observation more convenient and thorough.
[0007] Preferably, the main frame is provided with a rotating shaft and a second sleeve for mounting a third gear; the second sleeve is fixedly mounted on the main frame, and the rotating shaft is mounted in the second sleeve through a second bearing; the third gear engages the first gear and the second gear at the same time.
[0008] Preferably, the first gear, the second gear and the third gear are arranged on the same horizontal plane, the diameter of the second gear is smaller than the diameter of the third gear, and the diameter of the third gear is smaller than the diameter of the first gear.
[0009] By setting the rotating shaft and the second sleeve, the third gear is conveniently positioned, so that the drive motor can reliably drive the cylinder to rotate; because the diameter of the second gear is smaller than the diameter of the third gear, and the diameter of the third gear is smaller than the diameter of the first gear, the speed ratio of the drive motor and the cylinder can be reasonably adjusted, and the cylinder rotates more slowly and the rotation process is smoother.
[0010] Preferably, a locking nut is provided between the first gear and the cylinder, securing the first gear. The locking nut is mounted on the outer layer of the suspension shaft. A fastener is provided between the locking nut and the cylinder for securing the first gear. The fastener passes through the cylinder, the first gear, and the locking nut in sequence. The locking nut and fastener securely attach the first gear to the cylinder, allowing it to rotate synchronously with the cylinder. Because the positioning bracket is relatively large, secure attachment of the cylinder and the first gear ensures that the cylinder can reliably drive the positioning bracket.
[0011] Preferably, the oil cylinder is provided with an oil inlet joint and an air inlet, the main frame is provided with a hydraulic station and an air tank, the oil inlet joint is connected to the hydraulic station, and the oil inlet joint is a rotary joint; the air inlet is connected to the air tank, and the air inlet nozzle is also connected to the air tank; the air inlet nozzle and the intermediate pressure plate are connected to each other.
[0012] The oil inlet connector is connected to the hydraulic station via a metal pipe. Because it's a rotary joint, the cylinder rotates without interfering with the station. The air tanks are connected to the air inlet nozzle and air inlet via connecting hoses, commonly used in pneumatic tools. These hoses are not shown in the accompanying drawings. The ends of the connecting hoses are equipped with rotary joints, allowing them to be easily plugged in and out of the nozzle and air inlet.
[0013] Preferably, the intermediate pressure plate is provided with a first positioning seal fixedly connected thereto, and when the oil cylinder is working, the intermediate pressure plate is driven to move close to the bottom of the positioning bracket; a second positioning seal is provided at the bottom of the positioning bracket, and the first positioning seal and the second positioning seal are coaxially arranged.
[0014] By providing the first positioning seal and the second positioning seal, the wheel hub can be better sealed and positioned, ensuring that there will be no gaps in the wheel hub during the detection process, thereby further improving the detection accuracy.
[0015] Preferably, the outer layer of the oil cylinder is provided with a plurality of signal paddles, the main frame is provided with a first travel switch, and the first travel switch is arranged adjacent to the signal paddles; the first travel switch is electrically connected to the controller, and the controller is provided with a start-stop button and two steering buttons.
[0016] The signal paddle and first travel switch facilitate adjustment of the cylinder's rotational position. After one full rotation, the cylinder automatically stops and then reverses, allowing for automatic adjustment of the wheel hub's rotational position. A start / stop button on the controller allows for easy control of the wheel hub's rotational stop, making it easier to locate and observe air leaks. The steering button also allows for left and right rotation of the wheel hub, making the inspection process more convenient and more versatile.
[0017] Preferably, the water tank assembly includes a mounting seat, a first cylinder, a water tank connecting seat and a water tank body; the mounting seat is fixedly mounted on the main frame, and the mounting seat is provided with a first rail arranged in a pair, and the first rail is provided with a water tank connecting seat slidably connected thereto; the first cylinder is fixedly mounted on the mounting seat, and the piston shaft of the first cylinder is connected to the water tank connecting seat, and the water tank connecting seat and the water tank body are fixedly connected; an inlet valve is provided at the top open end of the water tank body, and a second stroke switch is also provided on the mounting seat; an intermediate pressure plate is provided on the piston shaft of the oil cylinder, and the second stroke switch is arranged between the intermediate pressure plate and the water tank body; lighting components are provided in pairs on the main frame, and the lighting components are arranged toward the water tank body; the second stroke switch and the lighting components are both electrically connected to the controller.
[0018] When the first cylinder is in operation, it controls the water tank connector to move up and down along the first track, which in turn drives the water tank body up and down, allowing it to submerge the wheel hub. A second travel switch facilitates control of the water tank's upward position, preventing interference between the water tank body and the bottom of the positioning bracket. Lighting also allows the operator to more clearly and intuitively observe the wheel hub inspection status.
[0019] Preferably, a pair of safety gratings are provided on the sides of the main frame, facing the lighting element. The safety gratings are electrically connected to the controller. By providing the safety gratings, the controller automatically issues an alarm when an operator crosses the gratings, making the detection process safer and more reliable.
[0020] Compared with the existing technology, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The present invention adjusts the speed ratio of the drive motor and the oil cylinder through the reduction assembly, so that the oil cylinder rotates slowly and the process of the oil cylinder rotation is smoother. 2.
