Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] In the assembly process of a precise optical-mechanical system, the flatness and roughness of the mounting surfaces of structural components will affect the stress distribution, heat dissipation efficiency and temperature uniformity of the optical-mechanical system, thereby affecting the dynamic performance of the optical-mechanical system in the full temperature range. In order to minimize the influence of the mounting surfaces on the optical-mechanical system, eliminate local stress, improve assembly consistency and ensure the performance of the system after assembly, the mounting surfaces of the structural components need to be finely polished.

[0003] A common polishing method is to apply a layer of diamond polishing paste on the mounting surface of a workpiece, and an operator holds a special cast iron block and reciprocally pushes the polishing block to make the cast iron block and the mounting surface of the workpiece slide in contact, thereby generating a polishing effect. However, this method has the following disadvantages: 1) one person can only polish one mounting surface at the same time, and the efficiency is low; 2) the angle of polishing needs to be controlled manually to ensure that the angle of the mounting surface meets the requirements of the drawing, and the skill level of the operator is required to be high.

[0007] The automatic polishing device for mounting surfaces of structural components has a 42-step stepper motor for the electric rotary table, which is driven through a worm and gear structure.

[0008] The counterweight is a cylinder processed from a cast iron block.

[0009] The position sensor of the structural member mounting surface automatic grinding device is an Omron photoelectric sensor.

[0010] The present application has the beneficial effects that: the movement trajectory of the X-axis linear displacement translation guide rail, the Y-axis linear displacement translation guide rail and the electric rotary table realizes the relative sliding of the workpiece to be ground and the grinding table, so that the workpiece mounting surface is effectively ground, through the setting of the stepping motor driver and the electric rotary table, manual intervention is not needed in the whole process implementation process, the high-efficiency grinding of the mounting surface of the special-shaped structural member can be effectively improved, the operation time of the process is reduced, the labor intensity of the production personnel is reduced, meanwhile, the requirement for the personnel quality is also reduced.
