The various appearances of "in one embodiment" or "an embodiment" in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment.

[0028] Embodiment 1

[0029] With reference to Figs. 1-2 For the first embodiment of the present application, the embodiment provides a portable carbon brush grinding device, characterized in that: comprising a grinding unit 100, the grinding unit 100 comprising a hand lever 101, an outer shell 102, a containing cavity A arranged inside the outer shell 102, a fixing assembly 103 and a lifting assembly 104, the hand lever 101 extending into the containing cavity A from the end face of the outer shell 102, the fixing assembly 103 arranged in the containing cavity A, the lifting assembly 104 arranged in the containing cavity A, the fixing assembly 103 arranged on the top of the lifting assembly 104, and;

[0030] An adjusting unit 200, the adjusting unit 200 comprising a handle 201, a rotating disc 202, a fixed groove 203 and a sliding block 204, the handle 201 extending into the containing cavity A from the lower end face of the outer shell 102, the fixed groove 203 fixedly arranged at the bottom of the containing cavity A, the sliding block 204 arranged to slide in the fixed groove 203, and the rotating disc 202 arranged on the top of the fixed groove 203 and fixedly connected with the handle 201.

[0031] When using the device, first, place the carbon brush to be ground in the placement hole 102b, then rotate the handle 201, the handle 201 being fixedly connected with the rotating disc 202, so the rotating disc 202 also rotates, through the cooperation of the fixed groove 203 and the sliding block 204, the sliding blocks 204 symmetrically arranged at both ends of the grinding sheet 104b approach each other, and then the grinding sheet 104b is adjusted to the required bending amplitude of the carbon brush, then rotate the hand lever 101, the hand lever 101 rotates and advances into the inner part of the outer shell 102, and then the fixing assembly 103 is pressed on the carbon brush, so that the carbon brush is fixed in the placement hole 102b, at the same time, the hand lever 101 rotates and advances while cooperating with the lifting assembly 104, so that the rotating force of the hand lever 101 is converted into the up-and-down movement force of the lifting assembly 104, finally, through rapidly rotating the hand lever 101, the grinding sheet 104 rapidly moves up and down, and then the grinding sheet 104 continuously grinds the carbon brush, until the carbon brush is ground to the same amplitude as the grinding sheet 104, after the grinding is completed, only need to rotate the hand lever 101 in the opposite direction, so as to move the fixing assembly 103 upward, and then the carbon brush can be separated from the placement hole 102b.

[0032] Embodiment 2

[0033] With reference toFigs. 3-4 For the second embodiment of the application, which is based on the previous embodiment, the hand lever 101 is provided with a first ring piece 101a, a second ring piece 101b, a first threaded line 101c, a second threaded line 101d and a protrusion 101e. The first ring piece 101a, the second ring piece 101b, the first threaded line 101c and the second threaded line 101d are coaxially arranged on the hand lever 101. The protrusion 101e is arranged on the bottom end surface of the hand lever 101. The first ring piece 101a functions to ensure that the hand lever 101 is limited in position while continuing to rotate when the hand lever 101 is rotated and moved downward to the maximum distance, preventing the hand lever 101 from continuing to move downward. The second ring piece 101b functions to drive the pressing plate 103c to move downward while the hand lever 101 moves downward. The first threaded line 101c cooperates with the threaded hole 102a, and the second threaded line 101d cooperates with the threaded groove on the inner wall of the cooperating threaded tube 104c.

[0034] The outer shell 102 is provided with a threaded hole 102a, a placement hole 102b and a vertical groove 102c. The threaded hole 102a is arranged on the top end surface of the outer shell 102. The placement hole 102b is arranged on the bottom end surface of the outer shell 102. The vertical groove 102c is arranged on the inner wall of the outer shell 102. The threaded hole 102a cooperates with the hand lever 101. The placement hole 102b is used for placing the carbon brush. The vertical groove 102c limits the lifting platform 104a, so that it moves up and down only within the range of the vertical groove 102c.

[0035] In more detail, the fixing assembly 103 includes a circular plate 103a, a first spring 103b, a pressing plate 103c and a fixing block 103d. The circular plate 103a is arranged in the accommodation cavity A. One end of the first spring 103b is fixedly connected to the circular plate 103a, and the other end is fixedly connected to the pressing plate 103c. The fixing block 103d is arranged in the placement hole 102b. The downward movement of the second ring piece 101b will press down the circular plate 103a. At this time, the pressing plate 103c will contact the fixing block 103d, forming a space that is sealed on the four sides and open at both ends. Continuing to press down the circular plate 103a will compress the first spring 103b. The pressure exerted by the pressing plate 103c on the fixing block 103d will increase, so that the carbon brush placed in the fixing block 103d is firmly pressed in, thereby achieving the fixation of the carbon brush.

[0036] Further, the lifting assembly 104 comprises a lifting platform 104a, a polishing piece 104b, a matching threaded tube 104c and a first single-sided gear 104d. The lifting platform 104a is arranged in the accommodating cavity A and on the top of the rotating disc 202. The polishing piece 104b is arranged on the lifting platform 104a. The matching threaded tube 104c is coaxially arranged in the lifting platform 104a. In the process of fixing the carbon brush by the fixing assembly 103, the second threaded line 101d on the hand lever 101 also matches the inner wall threaded groove of the matching threaded tube 104c. However, since the first single-sided gear 104d is embedded with the second single-sided gear 104c-2, the matching threaded tube 104c will not rotate with the hand lever 101. In the process of rotating and moving down of the hand lever 101, the protrusion 101e at the bottom of the hand lever 101 will contact the second single-sided gear 104c-2. The protrusion 101e will press the second single-sided gear 104c-2 so that the first single-sided gear 104d is disengaged with the second single-sided gear 104c-2. At this time, the hand lever 101 continues to rotate, and the matching threaded tube 104c will rotate with the hand lever 101. The rotation of the matching threaded tube 104c will realize the up and down movement of the lifting platform 104a.

[0037] Embodiment 3

[0038] With reference to Figs. 5-6 For the third embodiment of the present application, the rotating disc 202 is provided with a first special-shaped groove 202a, and the polishing piece 104b is symmetrically provided with a deformation groove 104b-1 corresponding to the two sliding blocks 204. The sliding block 204 is coaxially arranged in the deformation groove 104b-1 through the first special-shaped groove 202a. When the rotating disc 202 rotates, the sliding block 204 will move along the track of the first special-shaped groove 202a. Since the sliding block 204 is arranged in the fixing groove 203, the sliding block can only move along the groove in the fixing groove 203. Since the two sliding blocks 204 are symmetrically arranged on the rotating disc 202, the moving tracks of the two sliding blocks 204 are gradually close to each other. Since the two sliding blocks 204 are correspondingly arranged in the deformation groove 104b-1, the two deformation grooves 104b-1 can be close to each other, thereby changing the bending amplitude of the polishing piece 104b.

[0039] More specifically, the fixed groove 203 is provided with rubber bumps 203a, which are symmetrically arranged about the center line of the fixed groove 203. Each side of the rubber bumps 203a is provided with three rubber bumps. The rubber bumps 203a are arranged to correspond to the bending amplitude of three specifications of the polishing sheet 104b, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the specifications of the carbon brush to be polished according to the needs when polishing the carbon brush, thereby improving the work efficiency. The rubber bumps 203a are used to flexibly change the force on the hand when the handle 201 is rotated by hand, so that the transverse movement of the sliding block 204 is greater than the friction force between the sliding block 204 and the rubber bumps 203a, so that the sliding block 204 can smoothly cross the rubber bumps 203a. The resilience generated by the bending of the polishing sheet 104b cannot overcome the friction force between the sliding block 204 and the rubber bumps 203a, so the sliding block 204 will be limited between the rubber bumps 203a, and only by controlling the force on the hand to rotate the turntable 202 to reset the sliding block 204.

[0040] Further, the lifting platform 104a is provided with a square groove 104a-1 and a limiting column 104a-2. The sliding block 204 passes through the square groove 104a-1 and is embedded in the deformation groove 104b-1. The limiting column 104a-2 is embedded in the vertical groove 102c. The polishing sheet 104b is arranged in the middle of the lifting platform 104a. The square groove 104a-1 can not affect the lifting platform 104a when the sliding block 204 moves. The limiting column 104a-2 further limits the lifting platform 104a, so that the lifting platform 104a can only move up and down in the vertical groove 102c.

[0041] The matching screw pipe 104c is provided with a threaded groove 104c-1, a second single-sided gear 104c-2 and a second special-shaped groove 104c-3. The threaded groove 104c-1 is arranged in the interior of the matching screw pipe 104c. The second single-sided gear 104c-2 is arranged at the bottom end of the matching screw pipe 104c. The second special-shaped groove 104c-3 is arranged at the side of the matching screw pipe 104c. The lifting platform 104a is further provided with a connecting column 104a-3. The connecting column 104a-3 is provided with a track rod 104a-4. The track rod 104a-4 is embedded in the second special-shaped groove 104c-3. When the second threaded line 101d on the hand lever 101 contacts and matches the threaded groove 104c-1, the bottom of the matching screw pipe 104c is provided with the second single-sided gear 104c-2. At this time, the second single-sided gear 104c-2 is embedded with the first single-sided gear 104d. The first single-sided gear 104d is fixedly connected with the rotating disc 202. Therefore, at this time, the matching screw pipe 104c will not rotate with the hand lever 101. The hand lever 101 will rotate into the interior of the matching screw pipe 104c. When the second threaded line 101d on the hand lever 101 rotates to the bottom of the matching screw pipe 104c, the protrusion 101e on the hand lever 101 will press the first single-sided gear 104d. The first single-sided gear 104d is provided with the second spring 104d-1. Therefore, the first single-sided gear 104d will be pressed and shrunk downward. When the first single-sided gear 104d and the second single-sided gear 104c-2 are pressed and disengaged, the hand lever 101 is continuously shaken. At this time, the matching screw pipe 104c will rotate with the hand lever 101. Since the outer wall of the matching screw pipe 104c is provided with the second special-shaped groove 104c-3, the track rod 104a-4 is embedded in the second special-shaped groove 104c-3. When the matching screw pipe 104c rotates, the track rod 104a-4 will move up and down along the track of the second special-shaped groove 104c-3. In turn, the entire lifting platform 104a will continuously move up and down. The sliding block 204 is slidingly connected with the deformation groove 104b-1. Therefore, the polishing piece 104b can move up and down along with the up-and-down movement of the lifting platform 104a.

[0042] The first single-sided gear 104d is provided with the second spring 104d-1. The rotating disc 202 is provided with a column groove 202b. The second spring 104d-1 is coaxially arranged in the column groove 202b. After the polishing is completed, the first single-sided gear 104d will rebound under the action of the second spring 104d-. Since the teeth on the first single-sided gear 104d are arranged in the shape as shown in the drawing, the first single-sided gear 104d and the second single-sided gear 104c-2 will be more easily embedded together when they contact. The situation of being stuck will not occur.

[0043] It should be noted that the above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application but not limit the present application. Although the present application is described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or equivalently replaced, without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present application, which should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application.
