The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.

[0029] Reference Figure 1-6 , an embodiment of the present invention is proposed, the floating spindle described in this embodiment includes a mounting mechanism 1 and a swinging mechanism 2, both of which are ring-shaped, the mounting mechanism 1 is used to be coaxially mounted on the spindle flange 100 of the grinding equipment, the swinging mechanism 2 is used to be swingably connected to the side of the mounting mechanism 1 away from the spindle flange 100, and the swinging mechanism 2 is coaxially distributed with the mounting mechanism 1, the grinding device 200 is used to be coaxially mounted on the side of the swinging mechanism 2 away from the mounting mechanism 1, and the grinding device 200 can drive the swinging mechanism 2 to swing relative to the mounting mechanism 1 under the action of external force.

[0030] When the floating spindle described in this embodiment is working, the grinding device 200 installed on the swing mechanism 2 grinds the workpiece. During the grinding process, the grinding device 200 can drive the swing mechanism 2 to swing relative to the mounting mechanism 1, so that the grinding device 200 can be offset during the grinding process and can swing along the contour of the workpiece. It is suitable for grinding burrs of different sizes and is beneficial to improving processing efficiency, processing stability and processing quality.

[0031] In this embodiment, the swing mechanism 2 includes a mounting seat 21, a spherical bearing 22 and a connecting assembly 23. The mounting mechanism 1 is provided with a ring-shaped boss coaxially distributed therewith on the side away from the spindle flange 100. The mounting seat 21 is ring-shaped, and the mounting seat 21 is coaxially sleeved on the boss and coaxially mounted on the boss through the spherical bearing 22. There is a gap between the mounting seat 21 and the mounting mechanism 1. The mounting seat 21 is connected to the mounting mechanism 1 through the connecting assembly 23 arranged therebetween. The connecting assembly 23 is used to prevent the mounting seat 21 from rotating with its axis as the rotation axis.

[0032] The above-mentioned joint bearing 22 allows the mounting seat 21 to swing relative to the mounting mechanism 1, and the rotation of the mounting seat 21 on the joint bearing 22 is limited by the connecting component 23, so that the mounting seat 21 can swing relative to the mounting mechanism 1, so that when the floating spindle is running, the mounting mechanism 1 and the mounting seat 21 drive the grinding device 200 to rotate synchronously, and the mounting seat 21 can swing relative to the boss, and the structure is stable.

[0033] Further, the connecting assembly 23 includes a plurality of bolts 231 and a plurality of arc-shaped spring sheets 232, the plurality of spring sheets 232 are coaxially arranged outside the boss and distributed in sequence along its circumference, and any two adjacent spring sheets 232 overlap each other at one end close to each other, and any two adjacent spring sheets 232 overlap each other at one end provided with a through hole penetrating the main shaft flange 100 axially, the plurality of arc-shaped spring sheets 232 have a plurality of through holes, and the plurality of through holes correspond one-to-one to the plurality of bolts 231, a threaded hole matching at least one through hole is provided on one side of the mounting mechanism 1 close to the mounting seat 21, and a threaded hole matching the remaining through holes is provided on one side of the mounting seat 21 close to the mounting mechanism 1, and each of the bolts 231 has an end away from its head passing through the corresponding through hole and screwed into the corresponding threaded hole.

[0034] The plurality of spring sheets 232 can be deformed along with the mounting seat 21 so that the connecting assembly 23 can swing along with the mounting seat 21 , and the plurality of spring sheets 232 are connected to each other to limit the rotation of the mounting seat 21 , and the structure is simple and reliable.

[0035] Preferably, it also includes a plurality of buffers 3, and the mounting seat 21 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes penetrating the mounting seat 21 along its axial direction, and the plurality of mounting holes correspond one-to-one to the plurality of buffers 3, and the plurality of mounting holes are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the mounting seat 21, and each of the buffers 3 is respectively installed in the corresponding mounting hole, and its impact head faces the mounting mechanism 1 and extends out of the corresponding mounting hole.

[0036] When the swing angle of the workpiece of the mounting seat 21 changes too quickly, the impacted head of the buffer 3 abuts against the side of the mounting mechanism 1 close to the gap, avoiding a direct collision between the mounting seat 21 and the mounting mechanism 1, and slowing down the speed of the angle change of the mounting seat 21, avoiding the floating spindle from breaking, which is beneficial to extending the service life of the floating spindle.

[0037] Preferably, the mounting mechanism 1 has an airtight chamber 11 and a plurality of piston columns 12, and a plurality of piston holes 13 distributed axially along the main shaft flange 100 are provided on one side of the mounting mechanism 1 close to the mounting seat 21, and the plurality of piston holes 13 are all connected with the airtight chamber 11, and the plurality of piston holes 13 correspond one-to-one to the plurality of piston columns 12, and the plurality of piston holes 13 are evenly distributed along the circumferential interval of the main shaft flange 100, and the plurality of piston columns 12 are respectively slidably mounted in the piston holes 13, and can respectively slide in the corresponding piston holes 13, and the mounting mechanism 1 is provided with an air inlet hole connected to the outside, and the air inlet hole is used to connect with an external air source, and the external air source is used to inflate the airtight chamber 11, so that the piston column 12 extends out of the piston hole 13 under the action of air pressure and extends into the gap to abut against the mounting seat 21.

[0038] One end of the multiple piston columns 12 close to the mounting seat 21 is respectively abutted against it. When one side of the mounting seat 21 swings close to the mounting mechanism 1 under the action of the workpiece, the mounting seat 21 overcomes the air pressure to push the piston column 12 on the corresponding side to move in the corresponding piston hole 13 close to the spindle flange 100, and the piston column 12 on the other side continues to extend out of the corresponding piston hole 13 under the action of air pressure, so that the side of the mounting seat 21 close to the mounting mechanism 1 is always abutted against the multiple piston columns 12, thereby ensuring the stability of the swinging of the mounting seat 21.

[0039] Preferably, an air pressure regulating valve is provided on the air inlet, and the air pressure regulating valve is used to adjust the air pressure in the airtight chamber to adjust the size of the air pressure that needs to be overcome when the mounting seat 21 swings.

[0040] The mounting mechanism 1 includes a cover plate 14 and a floating seat 15, both of which have circular cross-sections. The cover plate 14 is used for being coaxially fixedly mounted on the main shaft flange 100, and the floating seat 15 is used for being coaxially fixedly mounted on the side of the cover plate 14 away from the main shaft flange 100, and a closed airtight chamber 11 is formed between the floating seat 15 and the cover plate 14, the air inlet hole is arranged on the cover plate 14, a plurality of piston holes 13 are arranged on the side of the floating seat 15 away from the cover plate 14, the boss is coaxially arranged on the side of the floating seat 15 close to the mounting seat 21, and the connecting assembly 23 is used to connect the floating seat 15 and the mounting seat 21.

[0042] Preferably, it also includes an anti-collision mechanism 4, which has a stationary component 41 and an action component 42, both of which are annular. The stationary component 41 is coaxially installed on the side of the mounting mechanism 1 close to the mounting seat 21, and the action component 42 is coaxially installed on the side of the mounting seat 21 close to the mounting mechanism 1 and extends into the gap. The mounting seat 21 can drive the action component 42 to swing under the action of external force to make it collide with the stationary component 41, so as to avoid the mounting seat 21 from colliding with the mounting mechanism 1.

[0043] When the mounting seat 21 swings at a large angle under the action of the workpiece, the stationary component 41 and the moving component 42 collide first, thereby avoiding direct collision between the mounting seat 21 and the floating seat 15, which is beneficial to prolonging the service life of the floating spindle.

[0044] Preferably, the anti-collision mechanism 4 also includes a controller and a relay, the stationary component 41 and the moving component 42 are both conductive elements, the stationary component 41 and the moving component 42 are electrically connected to the controller respectively, the two ends of the relay coil are electrically connected to the stationary component 41 and the moving component 42 respectively, and its contacts are used to connect the grinding equipment, and the mounting seat 21 drives the moving component 42 to swing and approach the stationary component 41 and be electrically connected to it under the action of external force, the coil of the relay is energized, and the grinding equipment is shut down, or the moving component 42 is away from the stationary component 41 and disconnected from the stationary component 41, the coil of the relay is de-energized, and the grinding equipment is running.

[0045] In this embodiment, the grinding equipment is a robot, and the mounting mechanism 1 is used to be installed on the driving end of the robot. The contacts of the relay are used to be electrically connected to the controller of the robot. When the mounting seat 21 swings at a large angle under the action of the workpiece, the action component 42 and the static component 41 contact each other and are electrically connected, the coil of the relay is energized, and the robot is powered off and shut down to avoid the mounting seat 21 from swinging at a large angle under the action of the workpiece, thereby limiting the swing angle of the workpiece, thereby avoiding the occurrence of knife breakage, tool damage or part damage in the entire process of burr removal due to large burrs on the parts themselves, insufficient robot rigidity, inaccurate positioning, and debugging errors by on-site engineers.

[0046] In the above embodiment, the stationary component 41 includes a stationary insulating ring 411 and a stationary conductive ring 412, and the moving component 42 includes an moving insulating ring 421 and an moving conductive ring 422.
