This utility model discloses an external
cylindrical grinding device, including a base, a workpiece driving mechanism, and a
grinding mechanism. The
grinding mechanism includes a
crank mechanism, a guide rail, and a
grinding block. A slider is slidably mounted on the guide rail, and the slider is connected to the
crank mechanism, which drives the slider to slide along the guide rail. A vertical groove is formed on the upper side of the slider, and the grinding block is slidably mounted in the groove. A spring is provided between the grinding block and the bottom of the groove. Under the action of the spring, the upper end of the grinding block can extend out of the groove to fit tightly against the surface of the workpiece to be ground. This utility model, by employing a grinding device with a certain degree of elasticity, can adapt to different types of shaft workpieces to be ground, has good versatility, and during secondary
processing, the grinding block can always be tightly fitted against the surface of the workpiece under the action of the spring, avoiding the
impact of workpiece jump during secondary clamping on the original shape and position accuracy.
