Abstract

Disclosed is a wheel flange burr brushing device, comprising clamping roller motors, a second clamping cylinder, second travel switches, a second feeding sliding plate, an upper rack, a gear, a lower rack, a feeding guide rail, belt pulleys, driving belts, rotating shaft supports, servo motors and the like. After feeding, a first clamping cylinder and a second clamping cylinder move synchronously first to clamp a wheel; next, the clamping roller motors are started to drive the wheel to rotate; then a lifting cylinder is started to drive a lifting platform to ascend, meanwhile, a feeding cylinder is started to drive a first feeding sliding plate and the second feeding sliding plate to reciprocate, and the servo motors are started to drive burr brushes to reverse cyclically; and the lifting cylinder stops moving when the burr brushes contact the flange face, the burr brushes begin brushing burrs.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A wheel flange burr brushing device, comprising a frame, a lifting cylinder, lifting guide rails, a lifting platform, a support, a feeding cylinder, at least two first travel switches, a first feeding sliding plate, a first clamping cylinder, clamping guide rails, a first clamping sliding plate, at least two burr brushes, at least four clamping rollers, a second clamping sliding plate, at least four clamping roller motors, a second clamping cylinder, at least two second travel switches, a second feeding sliding plate, an upper rack, a gear, a lower rack, a feeding guide rail, at least two belt pulleys, at least two driving belts, at least two rotating shaft supports and at least two servo motors, wherein the feeding guide rail and the support are mounted on the lifting platform, the first feeding sliding plate and the second feeding sliding plate are mounted on the feeding guide rail and connected with each other via a gear-rack structure, the feeding cylinder is mounted on the support, the output end of the feeding cylinder is connected with the first feeding sliding plate, and when the feeding cylinder drives the first feeding sliding plate to move left and right, the second feeding sliding plate moves synchronously with the first feeding sliding plate under the engagement effect of the gear and the racks; the first travel switches and the second travel switches are symmetrically mounted on the feeding guide rail; when the sliding plates touch the first travel switches, the output end of the feeding cylinder extends; when the sliding plates touch the second travel switches, the output end of the feeding cylinder retracts; thus, synchronous reciprocating motion of the first feeding sliding plate and the second feeding sliding plate within the fixed distance is realized;
a working process of the wheel flange burr brushing device is as follows: after feeding, the first clamping cylinder and the second clamping cylinder move synchronously first to clamp the wheel; next, the clamping roller motors are started to drive the wheel to rotate; then the lifting cylinder is started to drive the lifting platform to ascend, meanwhile, the feeding cylinder is started to drive the first feeding sliding plate and the second feeding sliding plate to reciprocate, and the servo motors are started to drive the burr brushes to reverse cyclically; and the lifting cylinder stops moving when the burr brushes contact the flange face, the burr brushes begin brushing burrs, the lifting cylinder retracts after the burrs are brushed, the lifting platform descends and is reset, the clamping rollers loosen the wheel, the roller bed conveys the wheel to next procedure and receives next wheel having burrs to be removed.

2. The wheel flange burr brushing device according to claim 1 , wherein the rotating shaft supports are symmetrically and fixedly mounted on the first feeding sliding plate and the second feeding sliding plate, the servo motors are mounted on the rotating shaft supports, the belt pulleys and the burr brushes are fixedly mounted on rotating shafts of the rotating shaft supports, output ends of the servo motors are connected with the belt pulleys by the driving belts, and the servo motors are configured to drive the burr brushes to rotate synchronously when driving the belt pulleys to rotate.

3. The wheel flange burr brushing device according to claim 1 , wherein in an initial state, output end of the feeding cylinder extends, the burr brush on the first feeding sliding plate rotates clockwise, and the burr brush on the second feeding sliding plate rotates counterclockwise, wherein both of the burr brushes brush burrs from the outer side of a flange to a central hole; and when the sliding plates touch the second travel switches, a signal is fed back to the servo motors, the servo motors reverse, the burr brush on the first feeding sliding plate rotates counterclockwise, and the burr brush on the second feeding sliding plate rotates clockwise, wherein both of the burr brushes brush burrs from the central hole to the outer side of the flange; when the sliding plates touch the first travel switches, a signal is fed back to the servo motors, the servo motors reverse, the initial state is restored, wherein the burr brush on the first feeding sliding plate rotates clockwise, and the burr brush on the second feeding sliding plate rotates counterclockwise, both of the burr brushes brush burrs from the outer side of the flange to the central hole, the burr brushes reverse again till the sliding plates touch the second travel switches.
