Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a polishing machine tool, in particular to a polishing head and a polishing device. Background Art

[0002] Computer-controlled optical surface shaping technology is an important branch of modern optical processing technology. Its core lies in using computers to accurately control the processing process and achieve high-precision shaping of the surface shape of optical components. The emergence of this technology is undoubtedly a revolution in the field of optical processing. It has greatly improved the production efficiency and quality of optical components, especially in mass production.

[0003] However, as mentioned above, computer-controlled optical surface shaping technology brings convenience, but also has certain limitations, the most notable of which is the generation of mid-frequency surface shape errors. Mid-frequency surface shape errors usually originate from factors such as vibration during processing, machine tool precision limitations, and processing strategies. For example, the vertical feed of the polishing head cannot be too fast during optical processing, otherwise it will affect the processing accuracy of the workpiece, but the slower feed speed will affect the overall processing efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a polishing head that can take into account both processing quality and processing efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a polishing head and a polishing device to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art and at least provide a beneficial choice or create conditions.

[0005] The solution of the present invention to solve its technical problem is: A polishing head comprises: a main rod, a mounting groove is arranged on the bottom side of which, and the mounting groove extends along the axial direction of the main rod; a piezoelectric actuator, which is connected to the mounting groove, and the piezoelectric actuator has a movable end that can move up and down, and the movable end is arranged downward; a transmission member, which is connected to the movable end and extends downward from the mounting groove; and a polishing disc, which is connected to the bottom end of the transmission member.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3A polishing head comprises: a main rod 1, a mounting groove is arranged on the bottom side of which, and the mounting groove extends along the axial direction of the main rod 1; a piezoelectric actuator 2, which is connected in the mounting groove, and the piezoelectric actuator 2 has a movable end which can move up and down, and the movable end is arranged downward; a transmission member, which is connected to the movable end and extends downward from the mounting groove; a polishing disc 3, which is connected to the bottom end of the transmission member.

[0024] In this polishing head, the main rod 1 is used to be installed on the external polishing equipment, so that the entire polishing head can be driven by the external equipment to the workpiece, and the polishing disk 3 is used to abut against the surface of the workpiece to polish the workpiece. During operation, the piezoelectric actuator 2 in the polishing head applies a voltage signal to control the lifting and lowering of the moving end, and the moving end drives the polishing disk 3 to move up and down through the transmission member, so that the downward pressure of the polishing disk 3 is basically the same when passing each point of the workpiece surface to be processed. In this way, the micro-motion control of the polishing disk 3 by the piezoelectric actuator 2 can achieve fast and accurate control of the movement of the polishing disk 3, thereby improving the processing efficiency and quality of the polishing head, and for non-rotationally symmetrical workpiece surfaces, the polishing disk 3 can better fit the workpiece surface during the polishing process, combined with the computer-controlled smooth trajectory and dwell time, the surface shape iteration efficiency is improved, thereby further improving the versatility of the polishing head for processing different workpieces.

[0025] The transmission member is mainly used to connect the polishing disc 3 located outside the main rod 1, transmit power to the mobile end, and thus drive the processing activity of the polishing disc 3 to adjust.

The asphalt polishing disc 3 adopts a multi-microporous structure, which can store polishing powder particles, make the polishing rate more uniform, and improve the removal rate. The porous structure can also accommodate large-size particles or polishing debris, effectively reducing the roughness of the polishing surface and reducing the possibility of scratches during the polishing process, thereby further improving the quality of the workpiece polishing.
