Abstract

A device for detecting the balance of a hub valve hole that includes a hub conveying roller bed configured to sequentially convey a hub from an upstream of a conveying belt to a hub identification device and a valve hole balance detection device until the hub leaves the valve hole balance detection device, wherein the hub identification device includes an electronic belt scale configured to obtain the weight of the hub and an industrial camera configured to take a photo of a wheel disc of the hub when the hub is conveyed to the hub identification device. The device can accurately identify the hub type and then automatically complete the valve hole compensation function of balance detection through the combination of the above components, program control and an algorithm, thereby improving the automation level and reducing the repeated operation of an operator.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A device for detecting balance of a hub valve hole, comprising:
a hub conveying roller bed, a hub identification device, a valve hole balance detection device and a processor;
wherein the hub conveying roller bed is configured to sequentially convey a hub from an upstream of a conveying belt to the hub identification device and the valve hole balance detection device until the hub leaves the valve hole balance detection device;
wherein the hub identification device comprises an electronic belt scale and an industrial camera, the electronic belt scale is configured to obtain a weight of the hub when the hub is conveyed to the hub identification device, the industrial camera is configured to take a front photo of a wheel disc of the hub when the hub is conveyed to the hub identification device, and the electronic belt scale and the industrial camera are both in data connection with the processor;
wherein the valve hole balance detection device comprises a spindle, an industrial camera, a laser generating device and a laser receiving device, wherein the spindle is configured to clamp and rotate the hub when the hub reaches the valve hole balance detection device;
wherein the industrial camera is configured to face the front of the wheel disc of the hub;
wherein the laser generating device and the laser receiving device are configured to emit laser, detect laser reflection at a bolt hole of the wheel disc and transmit a reflected signal to the processor; and
wherein the processor is configured to receive the laser reflection from the laser generating device and the laser receiving device which are used for emitting laser and detecting the laser reflection at the bolt hole of the wheel disc, and calculate a weight compensation.

2. The device for detecting balance of a hub valve hole according to claim 1 , wherein the valve hole detection device further comprises an encoder, which is configured to calculate a phase angle of the valve hole of the hub.
