Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of wheel hub processing technology, and specifically relates to a drilling device for wheel hub processing. Background Technology

[0002] Drilling holes in the wheel hub is a crucial step in the manufacturing process, directly affecting the hub's installation accuracy, dynamic balance, and safety. Properly executing the drilling process not only ensures a precise fit between the wheel hub and the vehicle's axle but also guarantees stability and safety during driving.

[0003] Existing drilling equipment for wheel hub processing involves placing the wheel hub to be drilled on a processing table, clamping and fixing it with an external fixture, and then using an external linear slide to drive a rotating drill bit to drill the wheel hub. However, in actual use, when drilling wheel hubs, personnel are required to use tools to assist in loading and unloading the wheel hubs. This process places a certain workload on the processing personnel and affects the efficiency of drilling wheel hubs. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, this utility model addresses the shortcomings of the prior art by providing a drilling device for processing wheel hubs, which can drill holes in wheel hubs during clamping and moving, and can drill holes in wheel hubs during fully automatic transfer, reducing the need for human intervention.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a drilling device for wheel hub processing, including a worktable, a drilling platform provided on the rear side of the worktable, a conveyor seat provided on the upper surface of the worktable, symmetrically distributed supports provided on the upper surface of the conveyor seat, a sliding table slidably disposed inside each support, a sliding cylinder symmetrically distributed on each sliding table, a sliding rod slidably disposed inside each sliding cylinder, a mounting plate provided between laterally adjacent sliding rods, and clamping blocks provided on opposite inner sides of the mounting plates; a driving mechanism is also provided between the conveyor seat and the sliding table, the driving mechanism being used to drive the movement of the clamping blocks; an electric push rod is provided in the middle of each sliding table, the telescopic end of the electric push rod being connected and fixed to the mounting plate; symmetrically distributed door panels are rotatably disposed on the front side of the worktable.

[0006] As a further improvement of this utility model, the drive mechanism includes a U-shaped connecting plate fixedly disposed between two sliding tables, an adjusting screw rotatably disposed inside the rear support, the adjusting screw being threadedly connected to the adjacent sliding table, and a servo motor disposed on the outer side of the rear support, the output shaft of the servo motor being fixed to the adjusting screw by a coupling.

[0007] As a further improvement of this utility model, each mounting plate is slidably provided with a sliding plate, the lower end of the sliding plate is provided with a lower support frame, the sliding plate is provided with multiple positioning holes, the mounting plate is inserted with a screw, the screw is fixedly provided with a knob, and each screw is threadedly connected to the adjacent positioning hole.

[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, a bracket is provided on the upper surface of the drilling table, an XYZ axis linear slide is provided on the upper surface of the bracket, a drive box is provided on the XYZ axis linear slide, and a drill bit is provided on the rotary seat at the lower end of the drive box.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0010] Firstly, the electric push rods on both sides drive the mounting plates connected to them to move, causing the clamping blocks on both sides to move towards each other and clamp the wheel hub conveyed between the two supports. During the clamping process, the lower support frame is inserted between the conveyor belt and the wheel hub. The wheel hub is quickly and stably clamped and fixed through the cooperation of the lower support frame and the clamping blocks on both sides.

[0011] Secondly, slide the sliding plates on both sides, causing the sliding plates to move the lower support frame connected to them upward or downward, so that the lower support frame adapts to the conveyor belt of the external belt conveyor and is level with it. Then, the personnel hold the knob and turn it so that the knob drives the screw into the interior of the adjacent positioning hole to fix the position and height of the lower support frame.

[0012] Third, after drilling, the servo motor continues to run, causing the lower supports and clamps on both sides to move the wheel hub to the other side of the support. Then the wheel hub is released, and at this time the wheel hub is transported to the next level of processing equipment by the belt conveyor running on the other side.

[0013] Fourth, the combination of electric push rods and servo motors enables drilling of wheel hubs during the clamping and moving process, allowing for fully automated transfer and reducing human intervention. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0020] To better understand this utility model, the following embodiments further illustrate its content, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited to the embodiments described below. Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a more thorough understanding of this utility model. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model can be practiced without one or more of these details.

[0021] like Figure 1 , 4 As shown, the system includes a workbench 101, a drilling platform 104 on the rear side of the workbench 101, a conveyor seat 102 on the upper surface of the workbench 101, symmetrically distributed supports 201 on the upper surface of the conveyor seat 102, a sliding table 202 slidably disposed inside each support 201, symmetrically distributed slide cylinders 203 on each slide table 202, slide rods 204 slidably disposed inside each slide cylinder 203, mounting plates 205 are disposed between each laterally adjacent slide rods 204, and clamping blocks 209 are disposed on the opposite inner surfaces of the mounting plates 205.

[0022] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, a drive mechanism is also provided between the conveyor seat 102 and the sliding table 202. The drive mechanism is used to drive the movement of the clamping block 209. The drive mechanism includes a U-shaped connecting plate fixedly installed between the two sliding tables 202. An adjusting screw 211 is rotatably installed inside the rear support 201. The adjusting screw 211 is threadedly connected to the adjacent sliding table 202. A servo motor 212 is installed on the outside of the rear support 201. The output shaft of the servo motor 212 is fixed to the adjusting screw 211 by a coupling. An electric push rod 210 is provided in the middle of each sliding table 202. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 210 is connected and fixed to the mounting plate 205.

[0023] like Figure 2 , 3As shown, each mounting plate 205 has a sliding plate 206 slidably mounted on it. The lower end of the sliding plate 206 is provided with a lower support 207. The sliding plate 206 has multiple positioning holes. The mounting plate 205 is inserted with screws. The screws are fixed with knobs 208. Each screw is threadedly connected to the adjacent positioning hole.

[0024] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, a bracket 105 is provided on the upper surface of the drilling table 104, an XYZ axis linear slide 106 is provided on the upper surface of the bracket 105, a drive box 107 is provided on the XYZ axis linear slide 106, and a drill bit 108 is provided on the rotary table at the lower end of the drive box 107.

[0025] In use, slide the sliding plates 206 on both sides, so that the sliding plates 206 drive the lower support frame 207 connected to them to move up or down, so that the lower support frame 207 adapts to the conveyor belt of the external belt conveyor and is level with it. Then, the person holds the knob 208 and rotates it so that the knob 208 drives the screw to screw into the interior of the adjacent positioning hole, thereby fixing the position and height of the lower support frame 207.

[0026] The wheel hub to be processed is transported by the conveyor belt of the external belt conveyor to the space between two supports 201. Then, the electric push rods 210 on both sides drive the mounting plates 205 connected to them to move, so that the mounting plates 205 are guided to move closer together in the guide relationship between the slide cylinder 203 and the slide rod 204. This causes the clamping blocks 209 on both sides to move closer together, clamping the wheel hub transported to the space between the two supports 201. During the clamping process, the lower support 207 is inserted between the conveyor belt and the wheel hub. The wheel hub is quickly and stably clamped and fixed by the cooperation of the lower support 207 and the clamping blocks 209 on both sides.

[0027] Then, the servo motor 212 is controlled to run, so that the output shaft of the servo motor 212 drives the adjusting screw 211 connected to it to rotate. By adjusting the thread relationship between the adjusting screw 211 and the sliding table 202, the sliding table 202 is moved, which in turn causes the lower support frame 207 and the clamping block 209 on both sides to move during the process of clamping and fixing the wheel hub, so that the clamped and fixed wheel hub is moved to the bottom of the bracket 105.

[0028] Then, the XYZ axis linear slide 106 and drive box 107 are controlled to run, causing the rotating drill bit 108 to move in the horizontal and vertical directions to drill a hole in the wheel hub that is held and fixed by the lower support 207 and clamping block 209. After drilling, the servo motor 212 is controlled to continue running, causing the lower support 207 and clamping block 209 on both sides to move the wheel hub to the other side of the support 201. Then, the electric push rod 210 is controlled to run in the opposite direction, causing the clamping block 209 to move in the opposite direction and release the wheel hub. At this time, the wheel hub is transported to the next level of processing equipment by the belt conveyor running on the other side.

[0029] According to another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the front side of the workbench 101 is symmetrically equipped with door panels 103. Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Other modifications or equivalent substitutions made by those skilled in the art to the technical solution of this utility model, as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
