Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wheel oiling technology, and in particular to a wheel oiling device. Background Technology
[0002] In the fields of automobile manufacturing and wheel surface treatment, applying anti-rust oil or decorative coating to wheels is a key process to ensure the product's corrosion resistance and appearance quality, thus requiring a wheel oiling device.
[0003] Traditional oiling processes generally employ manual application using handheld spray guns and brushes, resulting in low work efficiency and high labor costs. Traditional oiling devices often operate in a single-station mode, requiring the machine to be stopped after oiling before loading and unloading workpieces, leading to wasted equipment idle time. To address these issues, this application proposes a wheel oiling device. Utility Model Content
