Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bicycle rim production and processing technology, and in particular relates to a grinding device for bicycle rim production. Background Technology

[0002] Bicycles have advantages such as small footprint, light weight, and zero emissions. They are not only a convenient and environmentally friendly means of transportation, but also play an important role in promoting personal health.

[0003] During the production process of bicycle rims, the inner wall of the outer side of the rim needs to be polished to make it smooth, thereby preventing damage to the inner tube of the tire and affecting the normal use of the bicycle. Currently, polishing is generally done by workers holding a polishing roller and rotating the rim, polishing by the contact between the polishing roller and the inner wall of the outer side of the rim. Due to the instability of the human hand, it is impossible to ensure a tight contact between the inner wall of the outer side of the rim and the polishing roller, resulting in poor polishing effect and failing to meet the usage requirements of bicycle rims.

The position of the insert rod corresponds to the slot and the same size. The insert rod is inserted into the slot to ensure a reliable connection between the insert rod and the block, thereby ensuring the stability of the central disk position and preventing the central disk from rotating.

[0008] Preferably, the upper end of the base has a through groove and a bottom groove that are connected. The through groove, the bottom groove and the insertion rod are arranged parallel to each other. The width of the bottom groove is greater than the width of the through groove. The lower end of the slider is fixedly provided with a connecting block and a locking block.
