Rotary Wheel Deburring Device with Adjustable Brush Angles
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current deburring methods for aluminum-alloy wheels, using two rotary disc brushes, are inadequate for wheel types with high requirements and complex shapes, as they fail to effectively remove burrs from specific areas, such as wheel windows.
Innovation Solution
A rotary type wheel deburring device that allows for rapid adjustment of brush angles in horizontal and circumferential directions, utilizing a complex system of guide rails, servo electric cylinders, and gears to position a brush for targeted removal of burrs from focal parts, including root corners, roots of rims, and root included angles of flanges.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If two rotary disc brushes are used for deburring front surface and back cavity, then the deburring effect is permissible for majority of wheel types, but for wheel types with high requirements and complicated shapes, some parts cannot meet requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies multi-functionality by equipping the deburring device with multiple brushes (front surface brush, back cavity brush, and focal part brush) that can handle different wheel types and deburring requirements, making the device universally applicable while maintaining high precision on specific focal parts
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamics through the adjustable positioning mechanism that allows the focal part brush to be rapidly adjusted in horizontal and circumferential directions, enabling the brush to dynamically adapt to different wheel shapes and burr locations for precise deburring
2Device complexity
If fixed position brushes are used, then the structure is simple, but the brush cannot be rapidly adjusted to different angles for targeted processing
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the fixed brush structure into a dynamic, adjustable structure through servo electric cylinders and guide rails that enable rapid angular adjustment in horizontal and circumferential directions, greatly improving ease of operation while maintaining reasonable structural complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical adjustment with automated servo electric cylinder-driven positioning systems, allowing precise and rapid brush angle adjustment through electronic control rather than complex manual mechanical operations
3Ease of operation
If conventional deburring mode is used, then the equipment is simple to operate, but it cannot carry out focused processing on parts with difficult-to-remove burrs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the deburring function into multiple specialized brushes (front surface brush, back cavity brush, and focal part brush), each targeting specific areas, allowing focused processing on difficult-to-reach burrs while maintaining overall operational simplicity through automated control
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces conventional manual deburring operations with an automated positioning system using servo electric cylinders and guide rails, enabling precise focused processing on focal parts while keeping the operation simple through automated control rather than complex manual manipulation

AI summary
The present invention relates to a rotary type wheel deburring device, which comprises servo motors, cylinders, a brush, etc. When in use, a wheel reaches middle positions of four clamping wheels, a clamping cylinder enables the four clamping wheels to clamp the wheel and separate the wheel from a roller way surface through upper gears and gear racks, and a servo motor I enables the wheel to rotate in a clamped state; a servo motor II enables the brush to rotate; and a servo motor III can be used for adjusting the brush to an appropriate angle in the circumferential direction through a lower gear and a geared ring.
