When the wheel is jacked certain height by the support column 5, the upper cylinder 31 is started to drive the mobile platform 32 to move down, the four clamping jaws 42 are located outside the inner rim of the wheel, then the clamping cylinder 37 is started to drive the left sliding table 40 and the right sliding table 38 to move synchronously, the inner rim of the wheel is clamped by the clamping jaws 42, and the wheel is thus positioned and clamped. Since the inner rim of the wheel and the flange face of the wheel are machined on a first-procedure lathe, high-precision positioning of the wheel at the moment is realized before detection.

[0028] A transverse groove and two longitudinal grooves are formed inside the support column 5, the inner ring adjusting cylinder I 6 and the inner ring adjusting cylinder II 8 are symmetrically mounted in the transverse groove, the output end of the inner ring adjusting cylinder I 6 is connected with the inner ring sliding block I 9, the output end of the inner ring adjusting cylinder II 8 is connected with the inner ring sliding block II 10, and both the inner ring sliding block I 9 and the inner ring sliding block II 10 are mounted on the inner ring guide rail 7.

[0029] The outer ring adjusting cylinder I 16 and the outer ring adjusting cylinder II 17 are symmetrically mounted in the longitudinal grooves, the output end of the outer ring adjusting cylinder I 16 is connected with the outer ring sliding block I 20, the output end of the outer ring adjusting cylinder II 17 is connected with the outer ring sliding block II 21, the outer ring sliding block I 20 is mounted on the outer ring guide rail I 18, and the outer ring sliding block II 21 is mounted on the outer ring guide rail II 19. The electric cylinder III 22 is mounted on the outer ring sliding block I 20, the detection bar III 24 is mounted at the output end of the electric cylinder III 22, and a piezoelectric sensor 15 is mounted on the detection bar III 24; the electric cylinder IV 23 is mounted on the outer ring sliding block II 21, the detection bar IV 25 is mounted at the output end of the electric cylinder IV 23, and a piezoelectric sensor 15 is mounted on the detection bar IV 25. The detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 are used for detecting the outer ring of the flange of the wheel, and the distance between the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 can be adjusted via the outer ring adjusting cylinder I 16 and the outer ring adjusting cylinder II 17, so that the outer rings of multiple flange diameters can be detected, and the universality is wider.

[0030] When the flange of the wheel is concave, the inner ring of the flange face is low, and the outer ring is high. When the detection bar I 13, the detection bar II 14, the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 which have equal height simultaneously approach the flange face, the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 receive signals from the piezoelectric sensors 15 first due to the high outer ring, then the detection bar I 13 and the detection bar II 14 receive signals from the piezoelectric sensors 15 due to the low inner ring, and the flange of the wheel is judged to be concave in such a way that the time when the detection bar I 13 and the detection bar II 14 receive signals is later than the time when the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 receive signals.

[0031] When the flange of the wheel is convex, the inner ring of the flange face is high, and the outer ring is low. When the detection bar I 13, the detection bar II 14, the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 which have equal height simultaneously approach the flange face, the detection bar I 13 and the detection bar II 14 receive signals from the piezoelectric sensors 15 first due to the high inner ring, then the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 receive signals from the piezoelectric sensors 15 due to the low outer ring, and the convex flange of the wheel is judged in such a way that the time when the detection bar I 13 and the detection bar II 14 receive signals is earlier than the time when the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 receive signals.

[0032] After the wheel is clamped and positioned by the clamping jaws 42, the upper cylinder 31 is started to drive the mobile platform 32 to move up certain distance, at the moment, the flange face of the wheel leaves the support column 5, next, the electric cylinder I 11, the electric cylinder II 12, the electric cylinder III 22 and the electric cylinder IV 23 are simultaneously started, the detection bar I 13, the detection bar II 14, the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 which have equal height simultaneously approach the flange face, and whether the flange of the wheel is concave or convex is judged via the sequence of time when the detection bar I 13 and the detection bar II 14 receive signals and time when the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 receive signals. The detection bar I 13, the detection bar II 14, the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 are oblong, and the lengths of the detection bars are required to be greater than the width of a drainage channel, thus eliminating the influence of the flange drainage channel on the detection result. After the detection is completed the once, all the detection bars are reset, the servo motor 34 is started to drive the clamped wheel to rotate certain angle, and then the wheel is redetected via the detection bars. After multiple times of redetection, when all the detection results are concave, the flange face of the wheel is judged to be concave, otherwise, the flange face of the wheel is convex.

[0033] The working process of the device for detecting concave-convex of the flange face of the wheel is: firstly, according to the flange face of the wheel produced on line, the distance between the detection bar I 13 and the detection bar II 14 and the distance between the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 are adjusted; after the wheel enters the device, the positioning cylinder 26 is started to drive the left sliding plate 27 and the right sliding plate 28 to move synchronously, and the wheel is pre-positioned on the roller bed via the positioning columns 30; after the wheel is pre-positioned, the positioning columns 30 are reset, the jacking cylinder 2 is started to drive the support column 5 to move up, and the support column 5 can jack the wheel after contacting the flange face of the wheel, so that the inner rim of the wheel leaves the roller bed; when the wheel is jacked certain height by the support column 5, the upper cylinder 31 is started to drive the mobile platform 32 to move down, the four clamping jaws 42 are located outside the inner rim of the wheel, then the clamping cylinder 37 is started to drive the left sliding table 40 and the right sliding table 38 to move synchronously, the inner rim of the wheel is clamped by the clamping jaws 42, the wheel is thus positioned and clamped, and high-precision positioning of the wheel at the moment is realized before detection; after the wheel is clamped and positioned by the clamping jaws 42, the upper cylinder 31 is started to drive the mobile platform 32 to move up certain distance, and at the moment, the flange face of the wheel leaves the support column 5; next, the electric cylinder I 11, the electric cylinder II 12, the electric cylinder III 22 and the electric cylinder IV 23 are simultaneously started, the detection bar I 13, the detection bar II 14, the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 which have equal height simultaneously approach the flange face, and the flange of the wheel is judged to be concave in such a way that the time when the detection bar I 13 and the detection bar II 14 receive signals is later than the time when the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 receive signals; and the flange of the wheel is judged to be convex in such a way that the time when the detection bar I 13 and the detection bar II 14 receive signals is earlier than the time when the detection bar III 24 and the detection bar IV 25 receive signals. After the detection is completed the once, the four detection bars are reset, the servo motor 34 is started to drive the clamped wheel to rotate certain angle, and then the wheel is redetected via the detection bars. After multiple times of redetection, when all the detection results are concave, the flange face of the wheel is judged to be concave, otherwise, the flange face of the wheel is convex. Finally, after the detection, the four detection bars are reset, the clamping jaws 42 loosen the wheel, and the wheel falls back to the roller bed via the support column 5 and rotates downward.

[0034] The device of the disclosure can be used for 100% detection about whether the flange face is concave in automatic production, and has the characteristics of advanced process, high stability and efficiency, high automation degree and the like.
