Device and method for automatic grinding and polishing of illumination optical fibers and cables

Abstract

The invention provides a device and method for automatic grinding and polishing of illumination optical fibers and cables to solve the problems. On the basis of the traditional machining process, an automatic device is additionally arranged, movement in the X-axis direction and movement in the Z-axis direction are provided for a workpiece, and workpiece grinding and polishing pressure stabilizing, grinding and polishing walking track path fixing, workpiece grinding and polishing angle fixing and machining time free setting are achieved. In the grinding and polishing process, unnecessary human factors are eliminated to achieve automatic grinding and polishing of the workpiece; compared with the traditional manual machining manner, the device and method have the beneficial effects that the machining process is simplified, the product quality is improved, the machining efficiency is improved, and the production cost is reduced; and the structural design is simple, the process is easy to achieve, and the device and method are suitable for the producing and machining process of part of medical illumination optical cables.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an automatic grinding and polishing device and method for lighting optical fiber cables, belonging to the field of mechanical processing. Background technique [0002] Lighting fiber optic cables are widely used in urban lighting, medical and other fields. At present, the traditional way to achieve grinding and polishing in the processing of such fiber optic cables is to fix the workpiece on a simple hand-held tooling, expose the polished surface to the outside of the tooling, and grind and polish the shaft. When the grinding and polishing shaft drives the grinding and polishing tool to rotate at a certain speed, it is equipped with corresponding grinding auxiliary materials, such as water, sandpaper, emery, polishing fluid, etc., the operator holds the tooling, and the workpiece to be ground and polished faces The surface of the grinding and polishing tool is rotating and loaded with grinding auxiliary materials. The operator ...

[0002] Lighting fiber optic cables are widely used in urban lighting, medical and other fields. At present, the traditional way to achieve grinding and polishing in the processing of such fiber optic cables is to fix the workpiece on a simple hand-held tooling, expose the polished surface to the outside of the tooling, and grind and polish the shaft. When the grinding and polishing shaft drives the grinding and polishing tool to rotate at a certain speed, it is equipped with corresponding grinding auxiliary materials, such as water, sandpaper, emery, polishing fluid, etc., the operator holds the tooling, and the workpiece to be ground and polished faces The surface of the grinding and polishing tool is rotating and loaded with grinding auxiliary materials. The operator holds the tooling to apply pressure to the workpiece so that the surface of the workpiece to be ground and the surface of the grinding and polishing tool are pressed and fitted. At the same time, the operator needs to hold the tooling on the surface of the grinding and polishing tool Constantly make approximately elliptical or lateral movements, so that the surface of the workpiece to be ground and polished walks a specific trajectory on the surface of the grinding and polishing tool, thereby generating grinding and removal of the grinding auxiliary material on the surface of the workpiece to be ground and polished, and achieving grinding and polishing. The defects of the processing method are: the pressure applied to the workpiece is unstable, the movement track is not fixed, and the inclination angle of the workpiece to be ground and polished relative to the surface of the grinding and polishing tool is difficult to fix, making it difficult for the operator to achieve continuous processing
