In one embodiment, the driven gear 24 is mounted on top of the rotating shaft 30, the base 23 is mounted on the driven gear 24, and the driven gear 24 can drive the rotating shaft 30 and the base 23 to rotate.


In one embodiment, the jacking core base 20 is fixed on the base 23, the jacking core base 20 encloses the spring 18 and the umbrella-shaped jacking core 16 inside the jacking core base 20 through the limiting block 21 and the limiting screw 19, the spring 18 is arranged in the middle of the jacking core base 20, and the umbrella-shaped jacking core 16 can smoothly float up and down under the action of the spring 18.

At this time, the servo motor 10 starts to work to drive the rotating shaft 30, the floating positioning portion and the wheel blank 40 to rotate for one circle, a data analysis system obtains n distance values (n is an integral multiple of 3, n is greater than 6) from the distance sensor 39 to the wheel blank 40, wherein each detection value position respectively corresponds to n uniformly distributed positions on the end face of the whole wheel lip of the wheel blank 40. A mean square deviation represents a measure of the dispersion degree of a group of data in the mean value, wherein a smaller mean square deviation represents that these data are closer to the mean value, and the meaning here is that the deformation amount of the wheel lip position of the wheel blank 40 corresponding to the three detection values is smaller. The method for calculating the mean square deviation is that if a certain group of values in n/3 groups of detection values have n1, n2 and n3, the mean square deviation of the group is √{square root over ((n1-x)2+(n2-x)2+(n3-x)2)}; the data analysis system statistically analyzes the average value x of n distance values, divides the n detection values into n/3 groups, wherein the angles among the positions on the end face of the wheel lip of the wheel blank 40 corresponding to the three values in each group are 120 degrees, then analyzes and calculates the mean square deviation of the relative average value x in the n/3 groups of detection values, and selects the minimum mean square deviation, wherein this group of data corresponds to the three positions of the wheel blank 40, namely, the positioning surface with the minimum deformation of the end face of the wheel lip, that is the optimal position of the blank discharging position, then analyzes the relative position of the optimal positioning surface relative to the valve hole of the wheel blank 40 through the X-ray detector 17, then the control system controls the steering and the revolution of the servo motor 10, and the optimized positioning surface of the wheel blank 40 is transferred to the mechanical hand grabbing position. And at this time, the optimal selection work of the blank machining and discharging position is finished.
