Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of mechanical processing fixture technology and equipment, in particular to a drill bit sharpening mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Drilling technology is required in mechanical processing, assembly and equipment maintenance. Drilling is an indispensable processing technology in the mechanical field. The quality of drilling directly affects the assembly quality and the service life of the equipment. The tool required for drilling is the drill bit. The quality of drill bit processing directly affects the quality of the hole. During the drilling process, the drill bit is prone to wear and breakage. In order to improve the quality of drilling, improve production efficiency, and reduce production costs, the used drill bit needs to be re-sharpened under the drilling requirements. The sharpened drill bit is put back into use like a new drill bit. At the same time, since most of the drill bits on the market are standard drill bits, and the drill bit geometric angles required for different materials in the daily drilling process are also different, in order to meet the requirements, we need to sharpen the drill bit. The sharpening mechanism is a mechanism for sharpening the drill bit.

[0003] At present, drill bit sharpening in most domestic enterprises is mainly done by skilled workers directly on the grinding wheel, which requires high technical skills and is difficult for workers. The geometric angle of the drill bit and the symmetry of the two main cutting edges are difficult to guarantee. Even skilled technicians have to perform repeated sharpening and testing, which consumes a lot of time and manpower. The quality of drill bit sharpening directly affects the quality of the drilled hole, drilling efficiency, and drill bit service life. Summary of the invention

[0010] Furthermore, an arrow line is provided on the turntable along the diameter direction, and correspondingly, an angle scale is provided on the slide seat near the circumference of the turntable; a spring is provided between the connecting screw and the rolling bearing, and the rolling bearing is a plane needle bearing; the slide seat and the turntable can slide along the guide rail.

[0011] A spring is arranged between the connecting screw and the rolling bearing to play the role of automatic tensioning, so that the rotation is more stable. The rolling bearing is preferably a plane needle bearing, which has the advantages of high load, high rigidity, compact structure and long life; the slide seat and the turntable can slide along the guide rail; the V-shaped groove on the turntable is suitable for placing drill bits of different diameters.

[0012] When the present invention is used, the height of the sharpening mechanism and the distance from the grinding wheel are first adjusted according to the size of the grinding wheel diameter, and then the turntable angle and the angle limit pin are adjusted according to the geometric angle required for sharpening the drill bit. The grinding machine is started, the drill handle is held with the left hand, and the drill head is pressed firmly into the V-shaped groove with the right hand to carry out the sharpening operation.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0014] 1) A rotatable turntable is set up to easily adjust the angle of the drill bit on the turntable, so that drill bits of different angles and sizes can be sharpened; the turntable, guide rail, slide seat, etc. can rotate along the axis connecting the screw and the rolling bearing, which is convenient for processing various parts of the drill bit; the top angle and main clearance angle of the drill bit can be accurately sharpened according to the set plan to ensure that the main cutting edges on both sides of the drill bit after grinding are symmetrical and consistent, and the main clearance angle meets the requirements;

[0015] 2) The turntable and the slide can move along the guide rail, so that the contact area between the drill bit to be sharpened and the circumference of the grinding wheel is increased, the sharpening is more uniform and the service life of the grinding wheel is extended;

[0016] 3) Use plane needle roller bearings, which have high load, high rigidity, stable operation, suitable for fine processing of drill bits, safe and reliable;

[0017] 4) Set the angle limit pin to support the slide, turntable and drill bit to ensure that the main clearance angle after grinding meets the requirements;

The transverse adjustment slot 17 is provided with a fixing screw 13 . The fixing screw 13 connects the fixing seat 14 with the bracket 7 . The bracket 7 can move horizontally along the transverse adjustment slot 17 .

[0028] A spring 10 and rolling bearings 8 and 9 are provided in the vertical adjustment groove 18, and a connecting screw 11 passes through the spring 10 and rolling bearings 8 and 9 and is connected to the left end of the guide rail 5; the assembly consisting of the connecting screw 11, rolling bearings 8 and 9, and the guide rail 5, the slide seat 4 and the turntable 1 can move in the vertical direction along the vertical adjustment groove 18 and can also rotate along the axis of the rolling bearings 8 and 9; an angle limit pin 12 is provided in the angle adjustment groove 19, and the limit pin 12 can move in the vertical direction.

[0030] The working process of the present invention takes the standard twist drill sharpening as an example:

[0031] In the first step, a drill bit sharpening mechanism is fixed on a bench grinder with screws 15 and 16;

[0032] The second step is to place the drill bit to be sharpened on the V-groove 2, and adjust the connecting screw 11 according to the diameter of the grinding wheel to adjust the guide rail 5, slide seat 4, turntable 1 and other components along the vertical adjustment groove 18 so that the main cutting edge of the drill bit is slightly higher than the horizontal center line of the grinding wheel.

[0033] The third step is to adjust the tension of the spring 10 by connecting the screw rod 11 to ensure that the guide rail 5 rotates smoothly without axial movement.

[0034] The fourth step is to adjust the distance between the drill bit sharpening mechanism and the grinding wheel by fixing the screw 13. It is necessary to ensure that the turntable 1 and the slide seat 4 components have a sufficient safety distance from the grinding wheel and cannot collide with each other. Generally, the distance is about 5 mm.

[0035] Step 5. Rotate the turntable 1 so that the arrow is aligned with the scale 58. o -60 o , which is the angle between the drill bit axis and the grinding wheel axis, that is, the vertex angle (118 o ±2 o ) half, tighten the turntable locking screw 3, as shown Figure 5 .

[0036] Step 6: Adjust the angle limit pin 12 so that the drill head tilts downward by about 8 o -15 o ,like Figure 6 .

[0037] After adjusting the above steps, you can start sharpening the standard twist drill. When sharpening, you can grind one side first and then the other side. If the grinding amount is large, you can also grind the two sides alternately. The two main cutting edges of the drill ground by a drill grinding mechanism are symmetrical, and the geometric angles meet the requirements of the standard twist drill.
