Detailed Implementation

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0021] Reference Figures 1-3 A carbon fiber wheel rim parallelism measuring device includes a detection base 1, a slide rail 2 fixedly installed on the top of the detection base 1, three slide rails 2 are distributed in a ring-shaped array on the top of the detection base 1, a positioning clamping mechanism 3 and a rotation drive mechanism 4 are respectively provided on the top of the slide rails 2, and a double-sided parallelism synchronous detection mechanism 5 is also provided on one side of the detection base 1.

[0022] To achieve the positioning and clamping action in the carbon fiber wheel rim inspection, a positioning and clamping mechanism 3 is set up, including a slider 31 that slides into the inner wall of the slide rail 2. A tension spring 32 is fixedly installed on one side surface of the slider 31, and one end of each of the two tension springs 32 is fixedly installed to the inner side wall of the slide rail 2. A transition groove 33 is opened on the top of the slider 31, and a pin 34 is rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the transition groove 33 through a bearing. An auxiliary wheel 35 is fixedly installed on the arc surface of the pin 34. An auxiliary shaft 36 is rotatably connected to the top of the slider 31 through a bearing. A rotating wheel 37 is fixedly installed on the arc surface of the auxiliary shaft 36, and the arc surfaces of the three rotating wheels 37 are all slidably inserted into the outer arc surface of the carbon fiber wheel rim.

[0023] Specifically, this is achieved by sliding the slider 31 within the slide rail 2, which enables precise positioning of the wheel rim and ensures accuracy during measurement. The tension spring 32 provides a stable clamping force, keeping the wheel rim fixed during measurement and preventing measurement errors caused by vibration or movement. The auxiliary wheel 35 and the rotating wheel 37 allow the wheel rim to be flexibly adjusted according to different sizes and shapes, adapting to different types of carbon fiber wheel rims. The sliding engagement of the auxiliary wheel 35 and the rotating wheel 37 with the outer arc surface of the wheel rim effectively reduces direct contact wear and extends the service life of the equipment. The sliding engagement of the arc surfaces of the three rotating wheels 37 with the outer arc surface of the wheel rim ensures uniform distribution of clamping force, avoiding damage to the wheel rim due to excessive local pressure. This mechanism can adapt to wheel rims of different diameters and widths, providing effective positioning and clamping for various specifications of carbon fiber wheel rims.

[0024] To achieve the self-rotation action in the carbon fiber wheel rim detection, a rotation drive mechanism 4 is set up, including a drive motor 41 mounted on the top of one of the sliders 31. The output end of the drive motor 41 is fixedly mounted with a rotating shaft 42 via a coupling. A rotating gear 43 is fixedly mounted on the top of the rotating shaft 42. A driven gear 44 is also fixedly mounted on the top of one of the auxiliary shafts 36. The teeth of the driven gear 44 mesh with the tooth grooves of the rotating gear 43.

[0025] Specifically, this is implemented by automatically controlling the rotation of the wheel rim through the drive motor 41, which reduces manual operation and improves the automation level of the inspection process. The application of the rotary drive mechanism 4 in the inspection of carbon fiber wheel rims not only improves the automation and efficiency of the inspection, but also ensures the accuracy and safety of the measurement, while reducing the maintenance cost and operation difficulty of the equipment.

[0026] To achieve simultaneous double-sided detection in carbon fiber wheel rim testing, a simultaneous double-sided parallelism detection mechanism 5 is provided, including a U-shaped block 51 installed on one side of the detection base 1. A drive groove 52 is provided on the top of the U-shaped block 51, and a drive block 53 is slidably inserted into the inner wall of the drive groove 52. An L-shaped connecting plate 54 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the drive block 53. A telescopic cylinder 55 is also fixedly installed on the surface of the U-shaped block 51, and the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 55 is fixedly installed on the surface of the L-shaped connecting plate 54.

[0027] Specifically, this is implemented by using a dual-sided synchronous inspection system to simultaneously acquire parallelism data from both the inner and outer sides of the wheel rim, improving inspection efficiency and data integrity. The use of the telescopic cylinder 55 enables automatic extension and retraction of the inspection mechanism, reducing manual operation and improving the automation level of the inspection process. The telescopic cylinder 55 can respond quickly, enabling rapid positioning and movement of the inspection mechanism, shortening the inspection cycle. The design of the L-shaped connecting plate 54 allows the inspection mechanism to adapt to wheel rims of different sizes, improving the equipment's versatility. Synchronous inspection reduces potential errors caused by separately measuring the inner and outer sides, improving measurement accuracy.

[0028] A mounting plate 56 is fixedly installed on one side of the drive block 53. A limiting sleeve 57 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the mounting plate 56. A dial indicator 58 is fitted on the surface of the mounting plate 56 and the bottom surface of the L-shaped connecting plate 54. Two dial indicators 58 are located at the top and bottom of the carbon fiber wheel rim, respectively, and are symmetrically arranged. The end of the dial indicator 58 is threaded with an adjusting nut 59. Two adjusting nuts 59 are located at the top and bottom of the bottom end of the L-shaped connecting plate 54, respectively. Two other adjusting nuts 59 are located at the top of the mounting plate 56 and the bottom of the limiting sleeve 57, respectively.

[0029] Specifically, two dial indicators 58 are located at the top and bottom of the wheel rim respectively, and are symmetrically set up. This allows for simultaneous measurement of the parallelism of the upper and lower sides of the wheel rim, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the measurement results. By adjusting the nut 59, the position of the dial indicators 58 can be easily adjusted to accommodate wheel rims of different sizes, improving the adaptability of the equipment. This ensures the accuracy of carbon fiber wheel rim parallelism measurement, improves measurement efficiency, and enhances the adaptability and maintainability of the equipment.

[0030] This carbon fiber wheel rim parallelism measuring device achieves high-precision and high-efficiency wheel rim parallelism measurement through a meticulously designed positioning and clamping mechanism 3, a rotary drive mechanism 4, and a double-sided parallelism synchronous detection mechanism 5. This device not only improves the automation and accuracy of the measurement, ensuring product quality stability, but also significantly enhances production efficiency through synchronous detection and rapid response capabilities. Furthermore, its easy-to-operate and maintain design reduces production costs and maintenance difficulty, while enhancing the equipment's adaptability and reliability. It provides strong technical support for the production and testing of carbon fiber wheel rims, thus bringing significant benefits in improving product quality, optimizing production processes, and reducing production costs.

[0031] Working principle: During operation, the worker only needs to place the carbon fiber wheel ring on the auxiliary wheel 35 at the top of the slider 31. The tension of the spring 32 controls the surface of the three rotating wheels 37 to press the carbon fiber wheel ring, controlling the positioning and clamping of the carbon fiber wheel ring. The extension movement of the telescopic cylinder 55 drives the two dial indicators 58 to be located at the top and bottom of the carbon fiber wheel ring respectively. By rotating the adjusting nut 59, the detection probe of the dial indicator 58 is controlled to contact the surface of the carbon fiber wheel ring. Then, the dial indicator 58 is controlled to return to zero. Under the operation of the drive motor 41, the rotating gear 43 is driven to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear 44 to rotate, driving the connected rotating wheel 37 to rotate. Under the condition that the rotating wheel 37 presses the carbon fiber wheel ring, the carbon fiber wheel ring is driven to rotate, thus cooperating with the dial indicator 58 to achieve parallelism detection.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
