[0020] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0021] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-4 A manual inspection wheel hub flipping bracket includes a workbench 1. A support plate 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the workbench 1. A drive motor 3 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the support plate 2. A rotating rod 4 is fixedly connected to the drive motor 3 via a coupling. A drive gear 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 4. A driven gear 6 is meshed with the side wall of the drive gear 5. A turntable 7 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the driven gear 6. A cylinder 8 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the turntable 7. A clamp 9 is fixedly connected to one end of the cylinder 8. The drive gear 5 and the support plate 2 form a rotating structure through the rotating rod 4. The rotating rod 4 and the support plate 2 are movably connected. The driven gear 6 and the support plate 2 are movably connected. The support plate 2 is positioned at the center of the workbench 1. The device is symmetrically arranged along the axis, with the clamp 9 being semi-circular in shape. The clamp 9 and the turntable 7 form a telescopic structure through the cylinder 8. When using the device, the clamp 9 is pushed by starting the cylinder 8 to fix the hub. Then, the drive motor 3 is started, and the output shaft of the drive motor 3 drives the rotating rod 4 to rotate, which in turn drives the drive gear 5 to rotate. Since the drive gear 5 and the driven gear 6 are meshed, the driven gear 6 and the turntable 7 are also driven to rotate, thus rotating the hub. The hub can be flipped from a horizontal position to a vertical position or any angle. The inspector does not need to walk around or climb, and can directly observe the inner and outer sides of the hub, the back of the spokes, and other hidden parts, avoiding the omission of defects such as cracks and deformation.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-4 A manual inspection wheel hub flipping bracket includes a workbench 1 with a support frame 10 fixedly connected to the top, a stepper motor 11 fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 10, and an adjustment chamber 12 fixedly connected to the bottom of the support frame 10. The stepper motor 11 is fixedly connected to a lead screw 13 via a coupling. A guide plate 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the adjustment chamber 12, and a slider 15 is installed on the inner wall of the adjustment chamber 12. A lighting lamp 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 15. The inner wall of the slider 15 is threaded, and the slider 15 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 13. The lighting lamp 16 forms a sliding structure with the adjustment chamber 12 via the slider 15. When using the device, the stepper motor 11 is started, and its output shaft drives the lead screw 13 to rotate. Because the lead screw 13 and the slider 15 are threadedly connected, the lighting lamp 16 moves along the guide plate 14 via the slider 15. The height of the lighting lamp 16 can be adjusted according to the wheel hub inspection location, and angle adjustment can be used to eliminate shadow blind spots, making it easier to detect small cracks, scratches, and other defects.

[0024] Working principle: In use, first move the device to a suitable position, then activate the cylinders 8 on both sides to drive the clamp 9 to fix the hub to be inspected, and then inspect the hub. When the hub needs to be rotated for inspection, simply start the drive motor 3 to drive the rotating rod 4 to rotate, which in turn drives the drive gear 5 to rotate. Under the meshing drive, the driven gear 6 rotates, and the driven gear 6 rotates, which in turn drives the turntable 7 to rotate, thereby adjusting the hub fixed on the clamp 9 to a suitable vertical angle. At the same time, turn on the lighting lamp 16 for auxiliary lighting, and then start the stepper motor 11 to rotate the lead screw 13. Driven by the rotation of the lead screw 13, the slider 15 moves along the guide plate 14, and drives the lighting lamp 16 to move up and down. The height of the lighting lamp 16 can be adjusted according to the hub inspection position. Combined with the rotation adjustment, the shadow blind area can be eliminated, which facilitates the inspection. This completes the use of the device. The contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.

[0025] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
