The present invention discloses a correction equipment for an end face of an aluminum alloy wheel, including a correction device and a transport device, which is configured to transport the aluminum alloy wheel to the correction device. The correction device comprises a rack body, which is provided with an oil cylinder on an upper part, a lower pressing plate on a middle part and a jacking air cylinder on a bottom part, with an output end of the oil cylinder fixedly connected downward to an upper pressing disc and an output end of jacking air cylinder fixedly connected upward to a lifting frame, on which a displacement roller way is provided. The present invention satisfies the need for an end face correction for an aluminum alloy wheel while having significant, stable and reliable characteristics.

Portable devices for manipulating metals are provided including a housing; an actuator positioned in the housing; and a battery positioned in the housing and coupled to the actuator, the battery providing a discharge current large enough to the actuator to cause a rod in contact with metal of target item to adhere to a surface of the target item and manipulate the metal of the target item where the rod contacts the metal of the target item.

A restraint device for use with a vehicular straightening system includes an elongated tether that is connected to a restraining net along a first end, and an anchor connector along a second end. The anchor connector includes functionality for engaging the platform of the straightening system, and the restraining net includes a shape and size that is suitable for encompassing the fastening mechanism of the straightening system. A plurality of net connectors secure the restraining net about the fastening mechanism, and each of the tether, the restraining net and the connectors are constructed from materials having a high tensile strength for resisting a recoil force associated with a breakage of the fastening mechanism when a pulling force is applied thereon.

The dent removal assembly of the present application is configured to apply a gradual distributed pressure to a hardened material for the purpose of removing dents. The assembly is operable with any vehicle or other tool or panel where a dent may be present. The assembly is configured to regulate the flow of air into and out of the assembly in a controlled manner to cause a desired effect. Air is selectively inserted into an airbag to expand. The expansion presses against a dent and uniformly applies pressure to the dent so as to push it out to a desired position. The method may include the use of one or more braces or the use of a plurality of stacked airbags side to side.
