Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automotive wheel hub processing and flipping technology, specifically relating to an automotive wheel hub processing and flipping mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] The main function of wheel hub bearings is to bear weight and provide precise guidance for the rotation of the wheel hub. They bear both axial and radial loads, making them a very important component. Traditional automotive wheel bearings consist of two sets of tapered roller bearings or ball bearings. The installation, lubrication, sealing, and clearance adjustment of the bearings are all carried out on the automotive production line. The wheel hub processing and flipping mechanism is a key piece of equipment in the automated wheel hub production line, mainly used to realize the automatic flipping, positioning, and angle adjustment of the wheel hub during the processing.

[0003] Existing automotive wheel hub processing and flipping mechanisms are generally used in conjunction with conveyors. However, after the automotive wheel hub is fed into the flipping mechanism by the conveyor, the lack of a guiding structure inside the flipping mechanism may cause the wheel hub to deviate upon entering, resulting in it being unable to be accurately connected and input to another conveyor after flipping. To address this, we propose an automotive wheel hub processing and flipping mechanism. Summary of the Invention

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This invention, through the design of a guide plate and rubber pad, can guide the wheel hubs fed into the turning machine, so that the wheel hubs can be kept in the center position of the turning machine. At the same time, with the design of the operating handle, through hole, telescopic rod, locking hole and locking rod, the position of the guide plate can also be adjusted according to the size of the wheel hub. Compared with the existing technology, it greatly facilitates the turning and processing of wheel hubs. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 3This utility model provides a technical solution: an automobile wheel hub processing and flipping mechanism, including a base 1, a rotatable flipping machine 2 connected to the inner side of the top of the base 1, conveying rollers 3 connected to both ends of the inner side of the flipping machine 2, an adjustable wheel hub guiding mechanism provided inside the flipping machine 2, and a conveying protection mechanism provided on the surface of the conveying rollers 3. The adjustable wheel hub guiding mechanism includes: a guiding component and an adjusting locking component.

[0020] In this embodiment, preferably, the guiding assembly includes guide plates 100 symmetrically arranged on both sides inside the tilting machine 2 and rubber pads 101 fixed inside the guide plates 100, so as to guide the conveyed hub.

[0021] In this embodiment, preferably, an operating handle 200 is fixed on the side of the guide plate 100 to facilitate pulling and adjusting the guide plate 100.

[0022] In this embodiment, preferably, the adjusting locking assembly includes through holes 300 symmetrically opened on both sides of the inner wall of the flipping machine 2 and telescopic rods 301 symmetrically fixed to the end of the guide plate 100. The telescopic rods 301 are slidably connected to the through holes 300 to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the guide plate 100 inside the flipping machine 2.

[0023] In this embodiment, preferably, the telescopic rod 301 has symmetrically provided grooves 400 at both ends, and the inner wall of the through hole 300 is symmetrically fixed with sliders 401, which are engaged with the grooves 400.

[0024] In this embodiment, preferably, a locking hole 500 is provided through one side of the inner wall of the through hole 300, and a locking rod 501 is provided on the surface of the flipping machine 2 to be screwed and connected to the locking hole 500. The end of the locking rod 501 is pressed and fitted against the surface of the telescopic rod 301, which can position the telescopic rod 301 after the position is adjusted.

[0025] In this embodiment, preferably, the conveying protection mechanism includes a rubber protective ring 600 sleeved and fixed on the surface of the conveying roller 3, which facilitates the protection of the hub during the overturning conveying.

[0026] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: When it is necessary to adjust the position of the guide plate 100 according to the size of the wheel hub, first loosen the locking rod 501 on the surface of the flipping machine 2, so that its end separates from the surface of the telescopic rod 301 and is screwed into the inside of the locking hole 500. This releases the positioning of the guide plate 100. Then, hold the operating handle 200 and pull the guide plate 100 to move and adjust its position inside the flipping machine 2. This also causes the telescopic rod 301 to slide inside the through hole 300, and at the same time, it causes the slide groove 400 to move on the surface of the slider 401 to achieve sliding. The guide plate 100 is adjusted to a suitable position. Then, the operating handle 200 is stopped, causing the telescopic rod 301 to move temporarily inside the through hole 300. Then, the locking rod 501 is tightened, so that it is screwed out inside the locking hole 500 and pressed against the surface of the telescopic rod 301 for positioning. Then, the above steps are repeated to adjust the guide plate 100 on the other side. With the action of the rubber pad 101 and the rubber protective ring 600, the surface of the wheel hub fed into the turning machine 2 can be protected to avoid scratches and damage to the surface of the wheel hub.

[0027] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described (see the detailed description above), it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
