Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wheel hub processing technology, and in particular to a storage rack for aluminum alloy wheel hub processing. Background Technology
[0002] Aluminum alloy wheels are automotive wheels made of aluminum alloy. They are lightweight, have fast heat dissipation, and good shock absorption performance, and are widely used in passenger cars and racing cars.
[0003] The manufacturing process of aluminum alloy wheels involves multiple steps, including material preparation, mold making, casting or forging, heat treatment, and surface treatment. During this process, the wheels need to be placed using a special storage rack. Since there is a round hole in the center of the wheel for easy hanging, the storage rack is usually used to hang the wheels through this hole. However, existing storage devices lack necessary protection. To avoid collisions between wheels, only one wheel can be hung on a single hanging rod. This leads to the need for more storage and hanging devices during mass production. When hanging the wheels, attention must also be paid to the wheel size. If the spacing between the hanging rods is too small, large wheels may bump against each other. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model addresses the deficiencies in the prior art by providing a storage rack for aluminum alloy wheel hub processing.
[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] A storage rack for aluminum alloy wheel hub processing includes a base, an upright, a diagonal brace, a movable seat, a pull rod, a clamping plate, a backrest, a protective pad, a suspension mechanism, and rollers. The upright is fixedly mounted on the top of the base, the diagonal brace is fixedly mounted on both sides of the upright, and pull strips are fixedly mounted on the inner sides of the diagonal brace and the upright. The movable seat is secured to the top of the pull strips, the pull rod is fixedly mounted on the top of the movable seat, the clamping plate is fixedly mounted on the inner side of the top of the movable seat, the backrest is fixedly mounted on both sides of the movable seat, and the protective pad is attached to the outer side of the backrest. The suspension mechanism is fixedly installed on the outside of the backing plate, and the roller is fixedly installed on the bottom of the base. The suspension mechanism includes a suspension rod, a rotating shaft, a rotating plate, a locking block, a rubber pad, a magnet, and a protective sliding plate. The suspension rod has a mounting hole in the middle, the rotating shaft is installed inside the mounting hole in the middle of the suspension rod, the rotating plate is movably connected to the rotating shaft, the locking block is fixedly installed in the middle of the rotating plate, the rubber pad is pasted on the surface of the rotating plate, the magnet is fixedly installed at both ends inside the mounting hole on the surface of the suspension rod, and the protective sliding plate is pasted on the edge of the suspension rod.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the edge of the suspension rod is an arc-shaped structure, the vertical section of the protective slide plate is an arc-shaped structure that matches it, the protective slide plate is made of hard plastic, and the rotating plate is made of iron.
[0008] After the wheel hub is suspended on the surface of the suspension rod, the inner wall of the central circular hole will contact the outer surface of the protective plate. The plastic protective plate can not only prevent the inner side of the wheel hub from being scratched, but also allow the wheel hub to slide down the inclined suspension rod until its inner side contacts the protective pad on the outer side of the back plate.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the side of the movable seat is inclined, the backing plate is inclined, and the protective pad is made of rubber or foamed plastic.
[0010] The inclined backplate makes better contact with the surface of the suspended wheel hub, and the protective pad provides cushioning and prevents damage from impacts.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the inclined rod is fixed to the upper surface of the base, and the top of the inner pull bar of the upright rod is provided with a slot that cooperates with the card plate;
[0012] The position of the movable seat can be adjusted according to the wheel hub size to ensure that the spacing between the suspension rods meets the requirements of the wheel hub suspension.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the top of the pull rod extends through and to the outer side of the top of the upright, and the top of the upright is provided with a waist-shaped hole that mates with the pull rod.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] This aluminum alloy wheel hub processing storage rack can adjust the position of the movable seat according to the wheel hub size, thereby adjusting the spacing of the suspension rods to match the wheel hub size. When a single wheel hub is suspended, the locking block is impacted and squeezed, causing the rotating plate to automatically stand up, making it easy to suspend the wheel hub again. The two wheel hubs suspended on the surface of a single suspension rod are separated from each other and effectively protected to avoid damage, thereby reducing the amount of storage racks used.

[0021] The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of this utility model can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby providing a clearer and more definite definition of the scope of protection of this utility model. The directional terms mentioned in this utility model, such as "up," "down," "front," "back," "left," "right," "top," and "bottom," are only for reference to the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the directional terms used are for the purpose of explaining and understanding this utility model, and not for limiting this utility model.
[0022] like Figure 1-4 The aluminum alloy wheel hub processing storage rack shown includes a base 1, an upright 2, a diagonal brace 3, a movable seat 4, a pull rod 5, a clamping plate 6, a backrest 7, a protective pad 8, a suspension mechanism 9, and rollers 10. The upright 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 1, the diagonal brace 3 is fixedly installed on both sides of the upright 2, and a pull rod is fixedly installed on the inner side of the diagonal brace 3 and the upright 2. The movable seat 4 is clamped on the top of the pull rod, the pull rod 5 is fixedly installed on the top of the movable seat 4, the clamping plate 6 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the top of the movable seat 4, the backrest 7 is fixedly installed on both sides of the movable seat 4, the protective pad 8 is pasted on the outer side of the backrest 7, and the suspension mechanism 9 is fixedly installed. On the outside of the backing plate 7, the roller 10 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the base 1. The suspension mechanism 9 includes a suspension rod 91, a rotating shaft 92, a rotating plate 93, a locking block 94, a rubber pad 95, a magnet 96, and a protective sliding plate 97. The suspension rod 91 has a mounting hole in the middle. The rotating shaft 92 is installed inside the mounting hole in the middle of the suspension rod 91. The rotating plate 93 is movably connected to the rotating shaft 92. The locking block 94 is fixedly installed in the middle of the rotating plate 93. The rubber pad 95 is pasted on the surface of the rotating plate 93. The magnet 96 is fixedly installed at both ends inside the mounting hole on the surface of the suspension rod 91. The protective sliding plate 97 is pasted on the edge of the suspension rod 91.
[0023] Specifically, the edge of the suspension rod 91 is an arc-shaped structure, the vertical section of the protective plate 97 is an arc-shaped structure that matches it, the protective plate 97 is made of hard plastic, the rotating plate 93 is made of iron, the side of the moving seat 4 is inclined, the backing plate 7 is set at an angle, the protective pad 8 is made of rubber or foamed plastic, the bottom of the inclined rod 3 is fixed to the upper surface of the base 1, the top of the inner pull bar of the upright rod 2 is provided with a slot that matches the card plate 6, the top of the pull rod 5 passes through and extends to the outer side of the top of the upright rod 2, and the top of the upright rod 2 is provided with an oblong hole that matches the pull rod 5.
[0024] In this embodiment, the rotating plate 93 and the suspension rod 91 are first kept parallel to each other and attracted by the magnet 96 to ensure that the suspension rod 91 will not stand up automatically. Then, the spacing of the suspension rod 91 is adjusted according to the size of the wheel hub produced. After the pull rod 5 is lifted, the moving seat 4 is lifted and moved on the top of the inner pull bar of the upright rod 2 and the inclined rod 3. After moving to the appropriate position, the card plate 6 is locked into the corresponding slot on the top of the pull rod for limiting, thereby adjusting the position of the suspension rod 91.
[0025] Furthermore, when a wheel hub is fitted onto the surface of the suspension rod 91, as the inclined suspension rod 91 slides down, the protective slide plate 97 avoids scratching the inner wall of the mounting hole in the middle of the wheel hub, and impacts and squeezes the locking block 94 during the descent, thereby causing the rotating plate 93 to stand upright. After the first wheel hub is installed, its side will fit against the back plate 7, and the protective pad 8 on the outside of the back plate 7 effectively provides protection and cushioning. After the wheel hub is fitted again, the wheel hub will be blocked by the rotating plate 93, thereby preventing the two wheel hubs from colliding with each other. The rubber pad 95 on the surface of the rotating plate 93 provides cushioning and protection. In this way, multiple wheel hubs are suspended on the surface of a single suspension rod 91, which not only protects the wheel hubs and prevents them from being bumped, but also reduces the amount of storage racks used.
