Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a guide roller for superfinishing bearing rollers. Background Art

[0002] The rolling element is one of the five components of a rolling bearing (inner ring, outer ring, rolling element, cage, lubricant), and its quality will directly affect the precision and service life of the bearing. Cylindrical or tapered rollers are rolling elements in roller bearings, transmitting motion and load in the narrow space between the inner ring and the outer ring, and are key components that affect the service life of tapered roller bearings.

[0003] The final processing technology currently widely used is through-type superfinishing, which has the advantages of high production efficiency and stable roller quality. Figure 1 shown. Figure 1 The main guide roller 1 and the auxiliary guide roller 2 are both arranged horizontally and their axes are parallel to each other, and they rotate in the same direction and at a constant speed around their respective axes. The main guide roller 1 has a spiral rib 10, and the auxiliary guide roller 2 has a spiral groove 20. When the radius of the roller 3 is small, the spiral rib 10 of the main guide roller 1 can enter the spiral groove 20 of the auxiliary guide roller 2 appropriately, thereby avoiding interference between the main guide roller 1 and the auxiliary guide roller 2; in addition, the spiral groove 20 on the auxiliary guide roller 2 also helps to discharge the superfinishing liquid. The roller 3 is placed between the main guide roller 1 and the auxiliary guide roller 2. The main guide roller 1 and the auxiliary guide roller 2 are shaped to control the posture and drive the roller 3 in rotation. The main guide roller 1 with the spiral rib contacts the ball base surface of the large end of the roller 3. The spiral rib 10 drives the roller 3 to continuously penetrate the axial direction of the guide roller forward on the one hand, and can isolate two adjacent rollers 3 on the other hand, so that the roller 3 transported between the main guide roller 1 and the auxiliary guide roller 2 by the automatic loading mechanism can penetrate forward along the axial direction of the guide roller while rotating around its own axis. A row of oilstones 4 oscillates at a high frequency and a small amplitude in the longitudinal direction, and acts on the rolling surface of each roller 3 with a constant pressure, so as to realize the super-finishing processing of the rolling surface of the roller 3. The relative position relationship between the roller 3, the main guide roller 1 and the auxiliary guide roller 2 and the oilstone in the longitudinal vertical plane is shown as follows: Figure 2 shown.

[0004] Generally, the materials of the main and auxiliary guide rollers are made of cast steel or cast iron, which are mainly obtained by high-temperature melting and casting of industrial pig iron, scrap steel and other steel and alloy materials. In addition to cast iron, it also contains carbon in other cast irons in the form of graphite. If the precipitated graphite is in the form of strips, the cast iron is called gray cast iron or gray cast iron, the cast iron in the form of worms is called vermicular cast iron, the cast iron in the form of flocs is called white cast iron or code iron, and the cast iron in the form of balls is called ductile cast iron. Cast iron materials have the advantages of high strength, good wear resistance, and good friction stability. However, there are also problems such as uneven hardness of the surface material, many defects, and easy scratches on the roller surface, which affects the processing quality of the roller surface. Since the surface of the roller needs to be processed into a logarithmic curve shape through super-fine grinding technology, the surface of the main and auxiliary guide rollers also needs to be processed into a corresponding shape. At the same time, the center distance A of the main and auxiliary guide rollers 1 and 2 must be adjusted so that the center height of the roller 3 and the center height of the main and auxiliary guide rollers 1 and 2 form a certain angle θ. The surface processing shape of the main and auxiliary guide rollers and the relative position of the main and auxiliary guide rollers have a great influence on the force conditions during roller processing. If the clamping force on the roller is too large, the roller surface is easily scratched; if the clamping force is too small, the roller traction force is insufficient, and the roller is prone to slipping, stalling, and jamming, affecting the processing shape of the roller surface. In the actual adjustment process, many angles cannot be accurately measured, which makes the adjustment of the main and auxiliary guide rollers very difficult. At the same time, the main and auxiliary guide rollers will wear after working for a period of time, and the relative position relationship and the surface shape of the guide rollers will also change. Continuous adjustment is required to ensure the processing quality of the rollers. In addition, cast iron or cast steel guide rollers can only be scrapped after being worn to a certain extent. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a guide roller for superfinishing bearing rollers, which can make the roller transmission more stable and the processing positioning posture retention better, so as to obtain higher outer circle superfinishing surface quality and more stable logarithmic curve convexity shape; at the same time, due to the reduction of sliding wear and a certain self-compensation ability, its service life is also longer than that of cast iron or cast steel guide rollers.

[0006] The object of the present invention is achieved as follows: A guide roller for superfinishing a bearing roller comprises a main guide roller and an auxiliary guide roller arranged in parallel in a horizontal direction; the main guide roller is made of cast steel or cast iron, and a spiral baffle is arranged on the outer surface of the main guide roller, wherein:

[0007] The auxiliary guide roller includes a guide roller core and a guide roller shell; the guide roller core is a cylinder and is made of cast steel or cast iron; the guide roller shell is made of polymer plastic steel material and is heat-shrink-fitted onto the guide roller core; a spiral groove is provided on the outer surface of the guide roller shell, the pitch of the spiral groove is the same as the pitch of the spiral baffle on the outer surface of the main guide roller, and the rise angle of the spiral groove is the same as the rise angle of the spiral baffle on the outer surface of the main guide roller.

[0008] The guide roller used for super-finishing bearing rollers, wherein the wall thickness of the guide roller shell is 15-20 mm.

[0009] The guide roller used for superfinishing bearing rollers is characterized in that the width of the spiral groove on the outer surface of the guide roller shell is 7 mm, and the outer surface between the spiral grooves is a conical surface with a taper of 1.523°, which is smaller at the front and larger at the back.

[0010] The above-mentioned guide roller for super-finishing bearing rollers, wherein the thickness of the spiral baffle is 12 mm; the front and rear sides of the spiral baffle are respectively provided with front spiral grooves and rear spiral grooves with a width of 3 mm; the outer surface of the main guide roller between the front spiral groove and the rear spiral groove is a conical surface with a smaller front and a larger rear and a taper of 1.523°.

[0011] The guide roller for superfinishing the bearing roller of the present invention has the following characteristics:

[0012] 1) The elastic deformation of the plastic steel shell of the auxiliary guide roller ensures the smooth operation of the roller during superfinishing. At the same time, the low surface hardness and self-lubricating performance will not cause scratches on the surface of the roller;

[0013] 2) After using the auxiliary guide roller with a plastic steel shell, the distance adjustment accuracy between the main and auxiliary guide rollers is not required to be high, as long as the roller can be clamped and driven to rotate. The surface of the auxiliary guide roller is an elastic material, so under elastic deformation, the roller will not have too much clamping force between the main and auxiliary guide rollers, resulting in the roller surface being stuck or stuck, etc.;

[0014] 3) Due to the elasticity and adaptability of plastic steel, after the guide roller surface of the plastic steel shell has a certain wear, it can automatically compensate for the gap caused by wear, and there is no need for frequent adjustment; even if adjustment is made, it is just to reduce the distance between the main and auxiliary guide rollers a little bit, which is also very simple to adjust;

[0015] 4) When the surface of the guide roller of the plastic-steel shell is worn to a certain extent, the plastic-steel shell can be removed and a new plastic-steel shell can be replaced, so it has good repairability and economic benefits. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
