[0002] Currently, aluminum alloy Kaba wheels are commonly made of 6061 aluminum alloy, which is prone to rim fatigue wear during use. Furthermore, increasing wheel strength typically relies on increasing wheel thickness, which fails to meet lightweighting requirements. Aluminum alloy wheel surface hardening technology is a tool-free plastic machining method for wheel surface hardening. It offers the advantages of safety, convenience, and precise control. It effectively improves the wheel surface texture, enhances its surface hardness and strength, and mitigates defects such as wear and cracking that can easily occur during use.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent application number 202420402720X discloses a rolling device for improving the surface hardness of a wheel hub. The roller of the rolling mechanism rolls against the rotating hub flange end face, generating rolling pressure on the hub end face to improve the surface texture of the hub and increase its surface hardness and strength. This solution, in which the roller is connected to the tool holder via a wheel frame, results in a relatively complex structure and is susceptible to interference from the wheel frame during use. This makes it difficult to meet the rolling requirements for curved surfaces such as the wheel rim, resulting in poor applicability. Furthermore, the roller and tool holder are rigidly connected, resulting in poor processing stability.

[0004] In view of this, developing a new type of wheel hub surface strengthening tool for actual production is an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content
