[0010] Further, a baffle plate is further included, and the bottom of the baffle plate is fixedly connected to the connection between the driven sleeve and the handle.

[0011] Further, vertical sliding grooves are formed on both sides of the balancing machine body, and a connecting piece is fixedly connected between the driven plates on the inner side of the balancing machine body.

[0012] Further, the connecting piece is a sleeve ring, the driving structure includes a screw rod rotatably connected to the balancing machine body and vertically arranged, a driving motor arranged in the balancing machine body, and a transmission gear arranged between the output shaft of the driving motor and the screw rod, and the sleeve ring is internally provided with an internal thread engaged with the screw rod.

[0013] The principle and effect of the present application are as follows:

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the tire to be detected can be placed on the connecting frame of the lifting support, and after being placed, the driven plate of the lifting support is driven to rise and fall by the driving structure, so that the tire can be lifted and lowered synchronously, and after the tire is aligned with the main shaft and the fixing structure on the main shaft, the tire on the connecting frame can be pushed onto the main shaft and fixed by the fixing structure, thereby replacing manual carrying, solving the problem that the traditional automobile tire balancing machine needs to manually lift the tire when loading and unloading the tire to be detected, and the worker needs to carry the tire to be detected up and down for a long time, which is time-consuming and laborious and inconvenient for detection operation.
