[0031] This application provides a wheel protection device for paint peeling of subway wheelsets, mainly including: an outer ring fixing member 1, an inner ring fixing member 3, and a flexible protective member 2. The outer ring fixing member 1 is used to magnetically fix the outer ring end face of the wheel on the inner side of the wheel. The inner ring fixing member 3 is disposed on the inner ring of the outer ring fixing member 1 and is used to magnetically fix the inner ring end face of the wheel on the inner side of the wheel. The outer ring of the flexible protective member 2 is connected to the outer ring fixing member 1, and the inner ring of the flexible protective member 2 is connected to the inner ring fixing member 3. The flexible protective member 2 can at least cover the area between the inner and outer ring end faces of the wheel.

[0032] Both the outer ring fastener 1 and the inner ring fastener 3 can be sheet-like, plate-like, block-like, or ring-like structures. The outer ring fastener 1 and the inner ring fastener 3 are made of magnetic material, and their dimensions are set according to the dimensions of the outer ring and the inner ring of the wheel, respectively, to ensure the firm adhesion to the outer and inner rings of the wheel.

[0033] The flexible protective component 2 can be made of soft or flexible materials, such as fiber materials, rubber, silicone, gel materials, plastic materials, foam materials, etc. The flexible protective component 2 can be set with one or more layers to form a protective structure to achieve effective coverage of the area between the inner and outer end faces of the wheel.

[0034] The flexible protective component 2 possesses a certain degree of flexibility, allowing it to be freely bent, unfolded, and folded. It also exhibits a certain level of strength, with good tear resistance, and can prevent damage caused by solid paint splattering. Furthermore, the flexible protective component 2 also possesses a certain degree of corrosion resistance, resisting chemical solvents, acids, alkalis, greases, and other corrosive environments, making it suitable for corrosive environments.

[0035] The flexible protective component 2 can be glued, fixed by locking components, or hot-pressed onto the outer ring fixing component 1 and the inner ring fixing component 3 to ensure the reliability of the flexible protective component 2 and the outer ring fixing component 1 and the inner ring fixing component 3, or to achieve a detachable connection.

[0036] The installation steps for the wheel protection device for paint peeling of subway wheelsets provided in this application are as follows:

[0037] Step 1, Preparation Stage: Prepare protective devices in advance and ensure that the components will not be damaged during handling;

[0038] Step 2, Installation Stage: The operator attaches the semi-circular magnetic rings to the inner and outer end faces of the wheelset, ensuring a tight fit.

[0039] Step 3: Closing the rings: Align the two magnetic half-rings together and close them using magnetic force to form a complete protective structure.

[0040] Step 4, Paint Removal Stage: Start spraying the paint remover and observe and check for any leaks.

[0041] The wheel protection device for removing paint from subway wheelsets provided in this application can not only quickly adhere to the inner and outer rim surfaces of the wheelset, but also flexibly adapt to wheelsets of different sizes, effectively isolating splashed paint remover. It is highly efficient and convenient to operate, and does not easily damage the wheel surface. Compared to traditional tape protection, this device can be quickly installed and disassembled, with rapid adhesion, allowing operators to install it quickly and effortlessly, improving loading and unloading efficiency. Furthermore, this application can completely isolate splashed paint remover, protecting the paint film on the wheel surface from damage. It provides wide protective coverage, and the flexible protective component can freely extend and fold between the outer rim fixing component 1 and the inner rim fixing component 3, thus flexibly adapting to wheels of different sizes and models, making its application more widespread and cost-effective.

[0042] In one specific embodiment, the outer ring fastener 1 includes a plurality of outer ring magnetic rings 11, which are circumferentially distributed and magnetically fixed to the end face of the wheel outer ring. The outer ring magnetic rings 11 are preferably made of permanent magnets (e.g., neodymium iron boron magnets) or soft magnetic rings. The number of outer ring magnetic rings 11 can be adjusted according to the size of the wheel outer ring, typically set to 2 to 8, to ensure uniform adsorption force. The outer ring magnetic rings 11 are directly adsorbed onto the metal end face of the wheel outer ring by magnetic force, requiring no additional installation tools, and are easy to disassemble without damaging the surface of the wheel outer ring.

[0043] In addition, the inner ring fastener 3 includes multiple inner ring magnetic rings 31, which are circumferentially distributed and magnetically fixed to the end face of the inner ring of the wheel. The inner ring magnetic rings 31 can be made of the same material as the outer ring magnetic rings 11. The number of inner ring magnetic rings 31 is adjusted according to the size of the inner ring of the wheel, and the number of inner ring magnetic rings 31 is the same as the number of outer ring magnetic rings 11, so that the inner and outer ring magnetic rings 11 correspond and ensure uniform adsorption force. The inner ring magnetic rings 31 are easily removed by being magnetically attached to the metal end face of the inner ring of the wheel.

[0044] The dimensions of the outer magnetic ring 11 and the inner magnetic ring 31 can correspond to the dimensions of the wheel end face corresponding to the inner side of the wheel. The outer magnetic ring 11 and the inner magnetic ring 31 are flexibly connected by the flexible protective component 2, and the flexible protective component 2 completely covers the inner and outer end faces of the wheel, so that the splashed and penetrating paint remover is effectively isolated.

[0045] During installation, the outer ring fastener 1 is magnetically fixed to the outer ring of the wheel. Then, the flexible protective component 2 connects to another inner ring fastener 3 on the same wheel. The inner ring fastener 3 is magnetically fixed to the inner ring of the wheel. The outer ring fastener 1, inner ring fastener 3, and their connected flexible protective component 2 are installed in pairs sequentially. The outer ring fastener 1 and inner ring fastener 3 are designed as multi-segment circular ring structures, which can match wheels of different sizes and achieve complete coverage and isolation of the wheel surface with different diameters.

[0046] The flexible protective component 2 includes multiple flexible protective units 21 distributed circumferentially. Each flexible protective unit 21 is arc-shaped, and the outer ring of the flexible protective unit 21 is fixedly connected to an outer magnetic ring 11, while the inner ring of the flexible protective unit 21 is fixedly connected to an inner magnetic ring 31.

[0047] The flexible protective component 2 can be a ring-shaped curtain structure. Its outer edge is bonded and fixed to the inner side of the outer magnetic ring 11 by a high-strength adhesive (such as epoxy resin or polyurethane adhesive). The inner edge of the flexible protective component 2 is also fixed to the inner ring fixing component 3 by an adhesive method, forming a complete protective barrier.

[0048] In addition, the flexible protective component 2 can also be detachably connected to the outer ring fastener 1 and the inner ring fastener 3 by means of hook and loop fasteners (using the nylon hook side and the rough side to bond together) or clamps and other structures.

[0049] To achieve complete protection of the inner and outer ring areas of the wheel, a flexible protective component 2 is provided on the outer surface of the outer ring fixing component 1 and the inner ring fixing component 3. The outer edge of the flexible protective component 2 is flush with the outer edge of the outer ring fixing component 1, and the inner edge of the flexible protective component 2 is flush with the inner edge of the inner ring fixing component 3, thereby protecting the entire inner and outer ring areas of the wheel and increasing the protection range.

[0050] Furthermore, the flexible protective unit extends 10mm to 100mm beyond the end face of the outer magnetic ring 11 in the circumferential direction at both ends. Additionally, the flexible protective unit extends 10mm to 100mm beyond the end face of the inner magnetic ring 31 in the circumferential direction at both ends. This arrangement prevents the two end faces of the outer ring fixing member 1 and the inner ring fixing member 3 from completely fitting together. Even with gaps, the flexible protective unit extending beyond the end faces of the inner and outer ring fixing members 1 can still engage with adjacent flexible protective units, thereby adjusting the radial length of the flexible protective member 2 to completely cover the area of ​​the wheel surface requiring protection.

[0051] The flexible protective component 2 can be made of various materials, such as cotton, polyester fiber, or a blend of cotton and polyester fibers. It can also be a multi-layer composite structure, such as an outer layer of canvas or abrasion-resistant nylon cloth and an inner layer of elastic rubber, to improve durability and protective effect.

[0052] Optionally, the flexible protective component 2 is made of canvas, which has high strength and wear resistance, can withstand frequent friction, impact and heavy pressure, and can extend its service life.

[0053] Furthermore, to prevent wear or breakage of the inner ring fixing member 3 and the outer ring fixing member 1 due to hard collisions when magnetically adsorbed with the wheel, in a preferred embodiment, protective pads can be provided on the adsorption surfaces of the outer ring magnetic ring 11 and the inner ring magnetic ring 31. The protective pads can be made of soft materials such as rubber or silicone pads, and can be attached to the surface of the fixing members or fitted over the outside of the fixing members. When the inner ring fixing member 3 and the outer ring fixing member 1 are magnetically connected with the wheel, the protective pads act as a buffer and shock absorber, ensuring a secure fixation while preventing wear on the wheel surface.

[0054] The foregoing has provided a detailed description of the wheel protection device for preventing paint stripping from subway wheelsets. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this application. The descriptions of the embodiments above are merely for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications to this application without departing from its principles, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of this application.
