[0021] As Figure 1As shown, the inner wall of the through hole 5 is provided with a third forming surface 7. Specifically, the third forming surface 7 is located in the middle of the inner wall of the through hole 5 and divides the through hole 5 into an upper hole 51 and a lower hole 52. The inner diameter of the upper hole 51 is larger than the inner diameter of the lower hole 52. The first driving component is connected to the upper mold 1 and drives the upper mold 1 to move vertically so that the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are closed. When the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are closed, the first forming surface 4, the second forming surface 6 and the third forming surface 7 surround and form a first forming cavity 11 for forming the thick wall of the wheel hub. The second driving component is connected to the lower mold 2 and drives the lower mold 2 to move vertically. When the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are closed, the upper mold 1 is located in the upper hole 51 and the lower mold 2 is located in the lower hole 52. The third forming surface 7 is used to form the lower edge of the wheel hub. In addition, the outer peripheral wall of the lower mold 2 is provided with an annular groove along the circumferential direction to form a second forming mold cavity 10. The upper end of the second forming mold cavity 10 is connected to the first forming mold cavity 11. The second forming mold cavity 10 is used to form the outer rim of the wheel hub.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, a push rod 8 is vertically connected to the inner edge of the lower mold 2. The third drive assembly is connected to the push rod 8 and drives the push rod 8 to move vertically so that the upper end of the push rod 8 extends into the first molding cavity 11.
