[0041] The embodiment describes a circle line square machine, which has a machining precision of more than microns, solves the chip removal problem, can be applied to the square process of various sizes of silicon rods on the market, and has a machining efficiency of more than 5 to 20 mm per minute, and has a small floor space. The square machine of the embodiment can be placed symmetrically left and right to form a double-station square machine, ensuring that two silicon rods can be machined at the same time.

[0042] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the square machine includes a rack 1, a feeding and discharging mechanism 2, a rotating centering workbench mechanism 3, a cutter head cutting mechanism 4, a pressing mechanism 5, an edge clamping mechanism 6, a walking system, and a control system. The control system is used to control the actions of the feeding and discharging mechanism 2, the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3, the cutter head cutting mechanism 4, the pressing mechanism 5, the edge clamping mechanism 6, and the walking system. The feeding and discharging mechanism 2 is installed on the rack 1 and is used for feeding and discharging workpieces. The rotating centering workbench mechanism 3 is movably connected with the linear guide rail in the walking system of the rack 1, and can move along the linear guide rail under the driving of the walking system. The two cutter head cutting mechanisms 4 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the linear guide rail and movably connected with the rack 1. The pressing mechanism 5 is installed on the rack 1 through a pressing seat and located at the end of the linear guide rail. The two edge clamping mechanisms 6 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the rack 1 through material conveying bases on the left and right sides of the linear guide rail and located between the cutter head cutting mechanisms 4 and the linear guide rail, and are used for conveying the corner waste generated after the cutter head cutting mechanism 4 cuts. The workpieces in the embodiment include but are not limited to silicon rods, and are divided into to-be-cut workpieces 7 and cut workpieces 8 according to the cutting state.

[0043] The rack 1 is used for mounting and connecting various mechanisms and has a certain strength to support the self-weight load and cutting load of each mechanism. A plurality of shock-absorbing pad irons are uniformly distributed at the bottom of the rack 1. The height and levelness of the rack 1 can be adjusted through the shock-absorbing pad irons to ensure the precision and stability of the movement of each mechanism and effectively eliminate the adverse effects of vibration on cutting precision. In addition, water channels corresponding to the working positions of the feeding and discharging mechanism 2, the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3, and the cutter head cutting mechanism 4 are arranged on the rack 1 to collect cutting fluid, which is beneficial to the recycling of the cutting fluid.

[0044] The feeding and discharging mechanism 2 is installed on one side of the linear guide rail of the walking system, and is used for feeding and discharging workpieces and adjusting the posture of the workpieces, so as to facilitate subsequent processes. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the drawings, the feeding and discharging mechanism 2 comprises a feeding and discharging base 2.1, a feeding conveying platform 2.2, a turnover conveying platform 2.3, a cylinder lifting part 2.4, and a gear advancing and retreating part 2.5.

[0045] The feeding conveying platform 2.2 is installed on the feeding and discharging base 2.1, and is used for feeding workpieces to be cut and discharging workpieces after cutting. The turnover conveying platform 2.3 is hingedly installed on the translation slide plate of the cylinder lifting part 2.4 at the end close to the linear guide rail. The cylinder lifting part 2.4 is slidably connected to the linear slide rail of the gear advancing and retreating part 2.5 through the translation slide plate. The linear slide rail is installed on the feeding and discharging base 2.1. The driving motor of the gear advancing and retreating part 2.5 is installed below the translation slide plate and is in meshing connection with the rack installed on the feeding and discharging base 2.1. The cylinder lifting part 2.4 can slide along the linear slide rail under the driving of the gear advancing and retreating part 2.5. The cylinder body of the cylinder lifting part 2.4 is hingedly connected to the translation slide plate. The piston rod penetrates through the middle part of the translation slide plate and is hingedly connected to the bottom of the turnover conveying platform 2.3. The piston rod pushes the turnover conveying platform 2.3 to turn 90° under the action of the cylinder of the cylinder lifting part 2.4. The rack of the gear advancing and retreating part 2.5 is installed on the feeding and discharging base 2.1. The advancing and retreating motor of the gear advancing and retreating part 2.5 is installed below the translation slide plate and is in meshing connection with the rack. The advancing and retreating motor drives the cylinder lifting part 2.4 and the turnover conveying platform 2.3 to move along the linear slide rail through gear meshing transmission. The feeding conveying platform 2.2 and the turnover conveying platform 2.3 of the embodiment are coaxial and flush in the horizontal state, which facilitates the conveying of workpieces. The upper surfaces of the feeding conveying platform 2.2 and the turnover conveying platform 2.3 are both in U shape. A plurality of parallel rollers are uniformly distributed on the upper surfaces to form roller conveying tracks. Symmetrical unpowered rollers are provided on both sides of the rollers and are inclined inward. The unpowered rollers are installed on the upper surfaces of the feeding conveying platform 2.2 and the turnover conveying platform 2.3 through roller seats. The rollers convey workpieces under the driving of the conveying motor. The turnover conveying platform 2.3 of the embodiment is provided with a fork arm for positioning workpieces at the end close to the linear guide rail. The fork arm can be a U-shaped plate and is perpendicular to the surface of the turnover conveying platform 2.3. The opening of the fork arm faces upward of the turnover conveying platform 2.3. When the workpiece contacts the fork arm, the cylinder lifting part 2.4 controls the turnover conveying platform 2.3 to turn 90° to contact the buffer installed on the rack 1. The fork arm can bear the weight of the workpiece when the workpiece is turned over, so as to prevent the workpiece from tilting and sliding out of the conveying track of the turnover conveying platform 2.3. The workpiece is conveniently turned over to the vertical posture and falls into the workbench of the rotary centering workbench mechanism 3 during feeding.

[0046] After the crane puts the workpiece 7 to be cut into the horizontal state into the feeding conveying platform 2.2, the workpiece 7 to be cut is transported to the turnover conveying platform 2.3 through the roller conveying track. When the workpiece 7 to be cut is conveyed to the turnover position on the turnover conveying platform 2.3, the oil cylinder lifting part 2.4 pushes the turnover conveying platform 2.3 to turn over 90°, the workpiece 7 to be cut is adjusted from the horizontal posture to the vertical posture, the fork arm enters the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3, and the workpiece 7 to be cut is transferred to the platform surface of the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3. The gear advancing and retreating part 2.5 drives the oil cylinder lifting part 2.4 and the turnover conveying platform 2.3 to retreat as a whole, so that the fork arm exits the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3, avoids the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3, and moves to the cutting position under the driving of the walking system to cut the square. When the workpiece 7 to be cut is cut into the workpiece 8, the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3 retreats to the feeding and discharging position along the linear guide rail in the walking system, the gear advancing and retreating part 2.5 controls the oil cylinder lifting part 2.4 and the turnover conveying platform 2.3 to move forward as a whole, the fork arm enters the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3, and is located below the workpiece 8. At this time, the turnover conveying platform 2.3 contacts the workpiece 8 in the vertical state, the oil cylinder lifting part 2.4 turns over the turnover conveying platform 2.3 by 90° (i.e. rotates from the vertical posture to the horizontal posture), transfers the workpiece 8 to the turnover conveying platform 2.3, and adjusts the workpiece 8 from the vertical posture to the horizontal posture. At this time, the non-powered rollers on the two sides of the turnover conveying platform 2.3 contact the side surface of the workpiece 8, and the roller surrounds the workpiece 8 from three sides to ensure the stability of the turnover. Then the workpiece 8 is conveyed to the feeding conveying platform 2.2 through the roller conveying line of the feeding conveying platform 2.2 and the turnover conveying platform 2.3, and the workpiece 8 is taken away by the crane controlled by the manual control.

[0047] The walking system of the embodiment is a gear and rack walking part 9 (see Figure 5 ), which comprises a gear and rack driving assembly and a linear guide rail. The gear and rack driving assembly is installed on the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3, the linear guide rail is installed on the rack 1, and the gear and rack driving assembly drives the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3 to move along the linear guide rail.

[0048] The rotating centering workbench mechanism 3 is used for radial centering of the workpiece and adjusting the cutting angle of the workpiece 7 to be cut. As shown in Figure 5 , the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3 comprises a workbench rotating part 3.1 and a cylinder lifting centering part 3.2.

[0049] The workbench rotating part 3.1 is used to drive the workpiece 7 to rotate horizontally by a predetermined angle, so as to adjust the cutting position of the workpiece 7, and cooperate with the cylinder lifting centering part 3.2 to center the workpiece 7 radially. The workbench rotating part 3.1 comprises a workbench, a workbench seat and a rotating device. The workbench is above the workbench seat and is used to carry the workpiece. The workbench is installed at the top end of the rotating shaft of the rotating device. The rotating device drives the workbench and the workpiece 7 thereon to rotate, so as to adjust the cutting position of the workpiece 7. The rotating device is installed below the workbench seat. The rotating shaft passes through the workbench seat and is movably connected with the workbench seat. The workbench seat is movably connected with the linear guide rail of the gear and rack walking part 9 and is connected with the gear and rack driving assembly of the gear and rack walking part 9. The gear and rack driving assembly drives the workbench rotating part 3.1 to move along the linear guide rail through the workbench seat.

[0050] The cylinder lifting centering part 3.2 comprises a centering seat, a centering clamping cylinder, a lifting cylinder, a centering guide wheel, a guide wheel plate, a centering seat sliding plate and a linear sliding rail. The centering seat is between the workbench and the workbench seat. Two centering clamping cylinders and two linear sliding rails are symmetrically arranged on the upper surface of the centering seat. Two sliding blocks are symmetrically arranged on the linear sliding rails. The two ends of the centering seat sliding plate are respectively installed on the sliding blocks on the same side of the linear sliding rails. The movable clamping pieces on both sides of the centering clamping cylinder are respectively connected with the centering seat sliding plates on the same side. The centering seat sliding plates move in opposite directions under the driving of the centering clamping cylinder. The centering seat sliding plates are connected with the centering guide wheel through the guide wheel plate above the sliding blocks. Two lifting cylinders are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the centering seat and are installed on the workbench seat, and are used to drive the centering seat to lift.

[0051] When the workbench is connected to the workpiece 7 to be cut from the feeding and discharging mechanism 2, the gear and rack walking part 9 drives the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3 to move to the cutting position as a whole, the lifting cylinder is lifted to drive the centering clamping cylinder and the centering guide pulley connected thereto to rise above the lower surface of the workpiece 7 to be cut, and then the centering clamping cylinder is clamped (the centering clamping cylinder has been in an open state all the time), so that the centering guide pulley gradually closes and clamps the workpiece 7 to be cut towards the center, and the workbench rotating part 3.1 controls the rotation of the workbench and the workpiece 7 to be cut. During the rotation, if the center of the workpiece 7 to be cut deviates from the center of the rotating shaft, the corresponding centering guide pulley pushes the workpiece 7 to be cut to move towards the center through the clamping force provided by the centering clamping cylinder. At this time, the workpiece 7 to be cut moves gradually towards the center of the rotating shaft under the action of the rotational inertia force of itself, and keeps concentric, and the contact sensor 5.3 of the pressing mechanism 5 measures the circumferential error of the workpiece 7 to be cut. When the pressing mechanism 5 presses the workpiece 7 to be cut, the centering clamping cylinder is opened, the centering guide pulleys on both sides are driven to open away from the center of the workpiece 7 to be cut, the lifting cylinder drives the centering seat and the centering guide pulley to descend below the workbench plane, and the centering guide pulley has avoided the cutting position. The edge material clamping mechanism 6 moves to the working position, clamps the part to be cut of the workpiece 7 to be cut, and the cutter head cutting mechanism 4 on both sides of the workbench feeds downward to cut the workpiece 7 to be cut. After one cutting is completed, the cutter head cutting mechanism 4 on both sides of the workbench retreats upward to the cutting origin, the edge material clamping mechanism 6 moves the edge material out of the cutting position and to the recycling equipment. The workbench rotating part 3.1 drives the workbench to rotate by a preset angle, the edge material clamping mechanism 6 on both sides of the workpiece 7 to be cut moves to the working position, clamps the part to be cut of the workpiece 7 to be cut, and the cutter head cutting mechanism 4 repeats the cutting action. The above-mentioned retreat and repeat cutting actions are repeated in turn until the square machining process is completed. The gear and rack walking part 9 reverses the action, drives the rotating centering workbench mechanism 3 and the cut workpiece 8 to move to the feeding and discharging position together, and completes the discharging process through the feeding and discharging mechanism 2. After the next workpiece 7 to be cut enters, the next cutting action is automatically performed.

[0052] As shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the cutter head cutting mechanism 4 includes a sliding seat 4.1, a cutter head translation device 4.2, a cutter head feeding device 4.3, a cutting roller 4.4, a winding roller 4.5, a cutting fluid supply system 4.6, a ring wire 4.7, a water baffle 4.8, a tensioning device 4.9, and a cutter head seat 4.10.

[0053] One or two cutting rollers 4.4 and one or more winding rollers 4.5 are respectively installed on the front surface of the tool head seat 4.10. The cutting roller 4.4 is a driving roller, which is directly driven by the rotating driving device on the back surface of the tool head seat 4.10 through a shaft. When two cutting rollers 4.4 are installed, the second cutting roller 4.4 can be determined whether to start the rotating driving device according to the needs. The winding roller 4.5 is a driven roller, which rotates under the driving of the cutting roller 4.4. As shown in Figure 7 The embodiment shown in the figure adopts one cutting roller 4.4 and five winding rollers 4.5, and the annular wire 4.7 is wound on the cutting roller 4.4 and the five winding rollers 4.5 in turn to form a closed loop annular wire, which constitutes a six-wheel cutting train. During the cutting process, the annular wire 4.7 rotates in one direction at a high speed in an endless cycle. Since the annular wire 4.7 only has one acceleration and deceleration process during the whole process, there is no pause phenomenon of returning in the opposite direction when cutting, so that the workpiece 7 to be cut is cut from top to bottom at the same speed and in the same direction, further controlling the machining precision of the single piece from top to bottom in the whole plate of the workpiece 7 to be cut, thereby realizing the machining precision of microns or even higher.

[0054] The roller center planes of the cutting roller 4.4 and the winding roller 4.5 are respectively provided with an annular V groove with the same shape and size, which is used for loading the annular wire 4.7 to form a single-wire cutting. The annular wire 4.7 of the embodiment is a ring-shaped wire with a certain length and a certain diameter, on which diamond micro-powder particles of a required size are plated, and the head and tail of the wire are connected together.
