[0002] The bearing inner ring raceway is usually processed by multi-head raceway superfinishing equipment, which provides radial support for the bearing inner ring through two rollers, and then acts on the raceway of the bearing inner ring through the oil stone installed on the oil stone clamp shaft. Under the drive of the motor, the oil stone oscillates at a certain frequency to achieve the purpose of raceway superfinishing. However, for large-diameter narrow-width bearing parts, due to the large outer diameter size but narrow width size in the axial direction, the shape and position tolerances such as raceway side swing and roundness after superfinishing often exceed the tolerance, and the processing efficiency is low, which cannot meet the batch processing demand.

[0006] Preferably, the two roller shafts include a driving roller and a driven roller, and the rack is provided with a position adjusting device capable of adjusting the installation height of the two roller shafts and the radial distance between the two roller shafts.

[0007] Preferably, the clamping plate on the side close to the pull hook is provided with a hand holding ear portion extending from the side plate in the axial direction of the coil spring.

[0008] According to the above technical scheme, the present application has the following advantages:

[0009] The present application clamps the inner rings of the bearings in multiple groups through multiple bearing positioning assemblies, and only needs to insert the spring, stretch the spring and install the clamping plate during operation, which is simple and convenient, but can ensure the axial positioning effect of the inner rings of the bearings in the same group. The number of the inner rings of the bearings in the same group is determined according to whether the inner rings of the bearings can move in the radial direction after being manually pushed and pressed by the operator, so as to ensure that the axial force between the inner rings of the bearings is within a proper range, and the inner rings of the bearings in the same group can move freely under the radial pressure of the oil stone. Even if there is a radial deviation during clamping of the inner rings of the bearings, the inner rings of the bearings can still maintain sufficient tangential contact with the roller shaft during the machining process, so as to ensure the shape and position tolerances such as side swing and roundness of the raceway after superfinishing. The structure is simple, the machining effect is stable, multiple groups of inner rings of bearings can be machined at one time, and the present application is particularly suitable for raceway superfinishing of small-batch large-diameter narrow-end-face bearings, and can meet the demand of batch machining.
