TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of grinding wheel manufacturing, and particularly relates to a reinforcing method for high-speed worm grinding wheel for gear grinding. BACKGROUND
[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of new energy vehicles in China, the machining precision and grinding efficiency of traditional automobile gearbox gears cannot meet the requirements of new energy vehicles on gear precision, meshing, running noise, running stability and service life. In order to improve the machining precision and grinding efficiency, the domestic gear industry has successively introduced Hoefler, Reishauer, Kapp and Gleason high-precision, high-speed and high-efficiency worm gear grinding machines from developed countries such as Germany, Switzerland and the United States. With the continuous improvement of worm grinding machines and the development of grinding technology, worm grinding wheels are also forced to develop in the direction of high strength and high linear speed, so as to match the high-efficiency gear grinding machines. However, the strength of all domestic and part of imported worm grinding wheels used in the domestic gear industry is low, the maximum linear speed is 80 m / s, and the advantages of imported worm gear grinding machines cannot be fully utilized, which seriously affects the precision and production efficiency of gear machining in China.
[0003] The traditional method for improving the strength of worm grinding wheels is to increase the amount of binder and improve the molding density. Although this method can improve the strength of worm grinding wheels, the worm grinding wheels prepared by this method have high hardness and low porosity, and the problem of workpiece burning may occur during high-speed grinding. Chinese patent CN103862393A discloses a ceramic microcrystalline abrasive gear grinding wheel, which comprises a center reinforcing part and a grinding use part. The preparation method of the grinding wheel disclosed in the patent inevitably causes the center reinforcing part to extrude the outer grinding use part during the pressing process, resulting in the intersection of the core material and the outer material. This situation may cause two problems in the sintered grinding wheel: first, the grinding wheel is not balanced, and the tooth shape and tooth direction cannot meet the requirements when the grinding speed is increased, and more seriously, the grinding wheel may be broken; second, the center reinforcing part has large density and the grinding use part has small density, and large internal stress may be generated due to the inconsistent shrinkage of the inside and outside during high-temperature sintering, resulting in cracks in the grinding wheel.
