[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0021] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the utility model provides a device for improving the clamping accuracy of aluminum alloy wheels, including a support plate installed on a testing table, a disc 2 is coaxially slidably connected to the support plate, a plurality of arc-shaped grooves 3 are provided on the disc 2 at equal intervals along the circumference, one end of a top pressure piece is slidably connected to the arc-shaped groove 3, and the other end of the top pressure piece passes through the side wall of the support plate, a driving device for driving the disc 2 to rotate is provided at the bottom end of the disc 2, and a limiting piece corresponding to the top pressure piece is provided along the circumference of the support plate. When the disc 2 rotates clockwise, the top pressure piece approaches the limiting piece, and when the disc 2 rotates counterclockwise, the top pressure piece moves away from the limiting piece.

[0022] In this embodiment, the driving device is a servo motor, the output shaft of the servo motor is fixedly connected to the disc 2, the number of the pressing members is preferably three, and the angle between two adjacent pressing members is 120°.

[0023] By arranging a plurality of limiting members along the circumference of the support plate to form a circular frame, it is convenient to align and place the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 and perform preliminary positioning of the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8. The disc 2 is driven to rotate by the driving device. When the driving device drives the disc 2 to rotate clockwise, one end of the pressing member slides along the path of the arc groove 3. At the same time, the other end of the pressing member extends out of the support plate under the limiting action of the support plate and pushes the ear edge of the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8, and presses on the inner ear edge of the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8, so that the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 is centered and tightened. When the driving device drives the disc 2 to rotate counterclockwise, the pressing rod is separated from the ear edge of the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8, so that the measured aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 is convenient to remove.

[0024] The utility model has the advantages of simple operation and can ensure the clamping precision even if the riser of the aluminum alloy wheel blank is deformed or has burrs, thereby improving the measurement accuracy.

[0025] Furthermore, the supporting plate is an annular plate 1, and the edge of the annular plate 1 close to the limiting member is cut flush.

[0026] The annular plate 1 can support the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 on the one hand, and limit the pressing part on the other hand.

[0027] Furthermore, the pressing member includes a push rod 4, one end of which is slidably limited in the arc groove 3, and the other end of the push rod 4 passes through the side wall of the annular plate 1 and extends out of the annular plate 1, and the push rod 4 is slidably engaged with the annular plate 1.

[0028] Through the rotation of the disc 2 and the guiding action of the arc groove 3, the push rod 4 moves back and forth on the annular plate 1, and under the action of the limiter, the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 is centrally clamped.

[0029] Furthermore, a notch is provided at one end of the push rod 4, and the outer edge of the disc 2 is buckled into the notch. A pin 5 is provided at the notch, and the pin 5 is inserted into the arc groove 3. The push rod 4 is connected to the disc 2 in a sliding and limiting manner through the pin 5 and the arc groove 3.

[0030] The notches on the push rods 4 allow the push rods 4 to move relative to the edge of the disc 2. The pins 5 are provided to ensure that the push rods 4 and the disc 2 are precisely matched, thereby ensuring that when the disc 2 rotates at the same angle, the movement distance of each push rod 4 is equal, thereby ensuring that the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 corresponds to the center point on the measuring platform when it is centered and tightened, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the measurement.

[0031] Furthermore, the limiting member includes a fixed shaft 6 fixed on the detection platform, the fixed shaft 6 is arranged along the radial direction of the disc 2, and a limiting block is connected to the fixed shaft 6, and the limiting block is arranged corresponding to the top pressure member.

[0032] The aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 is preliminarily positioned by the provided limiting blocks, and the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 is fixed in the center by the pressing of the push rod 4 .

[0033] Furthermore, the limiting block is a rotating wheel 7 fixedly sleeved on the fixed shaft 6 , and a side of the rotating wheel 7 away from the disc 2 is flanged.

[0034] Specifically, the runner 7 can slide on the fixed shaft 6 to match the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 of different diameters, and the runner 7 is finally fixedly sleeved on the fixed shaft 6 through the fastening bolts threaded on the fixed shaft 6, so as to achieve preliminary positioning of the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8.

[0035] The device for improving the clamping accuracy of aluminum alloy wheels provided by the present invention has a working principle: the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 formed by die casting is grabbed by the manipulator equipped on the die casting machine, and is placed on the annular plate 1 after removing the slag. It should be noted that according to the specifications of the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8, the distance between the runner 7 and the center base point is locked so that the ear edge of the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 placed on the annular plate 1 just abuts against the folded edge on the runner 7, thereby achieving preliminary positioning of the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8. When the disc 2 is driven by the driving device to rotate clockwise, one end of the push rod 4 slides along the path of the arc groove 3, and at the same time, the other end of the push rod 4 extends out of the annular plate 1 under the limiting action of the annular plate 1 and clamps the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8. The ear edge is pushed to clamp the ear edge of the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 between the push rod 4 and the flange of the runner 7, so that the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 is centered and tightened, so that the center of the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 corresponds to the center point on the measuring platform, thereby realizing accurate clamping of the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8, and at the same time, turning on the measuring equipment to measure the clamped aluminum alloy wheel blank 8. After the measurement is completed, the driving device drives the disc 2 to rotate counterclockwise, and the push rod 4 is separated from the ear edge of the aluminum alloy wheel blank 8 and transferred by the manipulator. In addition, the utility model controls the rotation angle of the disc 2, thereby controlling the stroke of the push rod 4, thereby being suitable for the clamping and fixation of aluminum alloy wheel blanks 8 of different specifications, further improving the scope of use and reducing costs.
