摘要 |
The present invention relates to a reinforcement device (1, 100), especially a reinforcement device useable in a machine for laminating rims for wheels of automotive vehicles, the machine comprising at least two substantially parallel laminating axles (21, 22, 121, 122), the reinforcement device (1, 100) being characterized by comprising a body (4, 101) associated to the housing (2, 102) of the lamination machine, the positioning of the body being variable with respect to the housing (2, 102), the body (4, 104) being provided with two bearings (41, 42, 141, 142) supportable on respective end regions of the axles (21, 22, 121, 122), so that the axles (21, 22, 121, 122) are maintained substantially parallel during the operation of laminating the rim, at least one bearing being moveable with respect to the reinforcement device by a moving means (51, 52, 150). With great advantages, the invention can be used in usual lamination machines existing in the factory, thus making it possible to manufacture larger and more resistant wheel rims, with good quality and reduced cost, without potentially destructive overloads on the machine. In addition, the device brings about greater uniformity between the successive lots of rims produced, besides reducing the dimensional tolerances of each piece, which results better quality and more satisfaction of the clients. |
