[0002] The centerless grinding machine is a kind of precise grinding equipment, and is widely applied in the field of mechanical processing. The centerless grinding machine is a grinding machine without positioning the shaft center of a workpiece, and generally grinds the workpiece through a grinding wheel. The working principle is to control the machining center line by using the geometric error of the grinding wheel during the machining of the surface of the part, so as to achieve the precise machining effect. During the machining process, the grinding wheel rotates at high speed for grinding, and the guide wheel rotates at a slow speed in the same direction, so as to drive the workpiece to rotate for circumferential feeding.

[0013] The feeding method of the cycle feeding equipment for shaft parts suitable for centerless grinding machine comprises the following steps: first, before the grinding process starts, the workpieces to be ground are placed on the upper layer synchronous belt line assembly feeding area on the upper and lower layer support columns in the cycle feeding equipment by manual placement, different workpiece sizes can accommodate different numbers, and the spacing between every two clamped workpieces is limited to D1≤12mm, taking the workpiece with a diameter D=Ø10mm and a length L=330mm as an example, about 50 workpieces can be accommodated in one cycle grinding;
[0014] Second, after the workpieces to be ground are placed, the equipment is started, the upper layer driving motor drives the upper layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt to run in the up-and-down material transfer device direction D2, wherein D2=(D1+D / 2)mm; the last workpiece a1 to be ground passes through the upper layer feeding detection switch, the upper layer feeding detection switch inputs a signal to the PLC system, the PLC system controls the receiving double-axle cylinder to push out, and adjusts the receiving block to the receiving state; at the same time, the synchronous feeding cylinder is controlled to push out after t seconds, wherein t=the actual part arrival time at the end of the upper layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt, after the part a1 passes through the upper layer feeding detection switch and slides through the upper layer transition plate to the end of the upper layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt, the synchronous feeding cylinder pushes out, controls the feeding block to push the part a1 upwards, the part a1 falls into the receiving block receiving position, the synchronous feeding cylinder is retracted after one second, controls the feeding block to fall back below the upper layer transition plate, and prepares to push out the next part a2; after the part a1 falls into the receiving block receiving position, the receiving double-axle cylinder retracts, and the part a1 falls through the lower layer transition plate and is placed in the lower layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt feeding area, the receiving double-axle cylinder is retracted after one second, the PLC system controls the lower layer driving motor to run in the push plate feeding device direction D2, the receiving double-axle cylinder is pushed out after one second, and is ready to receive the next part a2; this step is a single workpiece up-and-down material transfer cycle;
[0015] Third, repeat the single workpiece up-and-down material transfer cycle of the second step until the part a1 reaches the lower layer synchronous belt line assembly and triggers the lower layer feeding detection switch, the cycle of the second step is stopped, and the fourth step is entered;
[0016] The fourth step, the double-shaft lifting cylinder inside the rack is normally retracted, and the part a1 reaches the trigger lower layer to the material detection switch for one second. The PLC system controls the double-shaft lifting cylinder inside the rack to push out, drives the lifting push plate to push the part a1 into the material transition plate, and the double-shaft lifting cylinder inside the rack is retracted after one second, preparing for the next push out. The part a1 falls into the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt through the material transition plate, and the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt feeder runs after the equipment is started. The feeding drive motor drives the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt to keep running. After the part a1 falls into the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt, the part a1 runs through the feeding detection switch with the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt, triggers the feeding detection switch, and indicates that the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt is in a material state at this time. The signal is fed back to the PLC system, and the PLC system controls the double-shaft lifting cylinder inside the rack to be unable to push out the lifting. The part a1 continues to run with the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt, enters the grinding area of the centerless grinding machine, and starts grinding. At this time, the part a1 leaves the detection area of the feeding detection switch, the signal is interrupted, indicates that there is no material, the signal is fed back to the PLC system, the PLC system controls the double-shaft lifting cylinder inside the rack to push out, drives the lifting push plate to push the part a2 into the material transition plate, and the part a2 falls into the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt. The feeding detection switch is triggered accordingly, and the cycle is repeated. This step is a single part push plate material transfer cycle.
[0017] The fifth step, after the part a1 enters the grinding area of the centerless grinding machine and completes grinding, the part a1 enters the first feeding V-shaped wheel at the feeding end of the V-shaped synchronous belt transfer machine with the power of the centerless grinding machine. The V-shaped synchronous belt transfer machine is normally running after the equipment is started. The transfer drive motor drives the chain wheel to run, drives the transmission chain to transmit power to the second feeding V-shaped wheel, and simultaneously drives the transfer V-shaped synchronous belt. The transfer V-shaped synchronous belt is driven by the first feeding V-shaped wheel through the chain transmission. The first feeding V-shaped wheel drives the part a1 to enter the transfer V-shaped synchronous belt. When the part a1 triggers the detection switch in front of the air blowing and drying machine, the PLC system controls the air blowing and drying machine to start blowing and blows off the surface grinding liquid and impurities of the part a1. When the part a1 continues to move out of the detection area of the detection switch, the PLC system controls the air blowing and drying machine to stop blowing. The part a1 continues to move and enters the second feeding V-shaped wheel. When the part a1 reaches the detection area of the transfer to position detection switch, the part a1 is limited by the end limiting structure and stops moving. The transfer to position detection switch feeds back the signal to the PLC system. The PLC system controls the mechanical hand jaw of the centerless grinding machine to clamp out the part a1, and places the workpiece back into the double-sided tooth synchronous belt discharging area on the upper layer of the circulating feeding equipment. After the placement is completed, the mechanical hand jaw returns above the transfer to position detection switch, prepares for the next clamping, and the cycle is repeated. This step is a single part clamping and material transfer cycle.
[0018] The sixth step, the above first step to the fifth step is cycled until all the placed parts are ground once. The grinding effect and size change are detected to prepare for the next cycle. This step is a single grinding cycle.
[0019] The seventh step, the sixth step is cycled until the part is ground to the required size, and the centerless grinding machine is completed by type cycle grinding.

The first feeding V-shaped wheel 26 is used for feeding the material rotating V-shaped synchronous belt 27.
[0032] The feeding method of the cycle feeding equipment for shaft parts suitable for centerless grinding machines has the following steps. First, before the grinding process starts, the workpieces to be ground are placed on the upper layer of the synchronous belt line assembly 2 in the feeding area of the cycle feeding equipment by manual placement. Different workpiece sizes can accommodate different numbers, and the spacing between every two workpieces is limited to D1≤12 mm by the clamping robot. Taking the workpiece with a diameter D=Ø10 mm and a length L=330 mm as an example, about 50 workpieces can be accommodated in one cycle grinding. Second, after the workpieces to be ground are placed, the equipment is started, and the PLC system controls the upper layer driving motor 8 to drive the upper layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt 9 to run in the direction of the up-down material transfer device 3 by D2, where D2=(D1+D / 2) mm. The last workpiece a1 to be ground passes through the upper layer feeding detection switch 12, the upper layer feeding detection switch 12 inputs a signal to the PLC system, the PLC system controls the receiving double-shaft air cylinder 16 to push out, and adjusts the receiving block 14 to the receiving state. At the same time, the synchronous material pushing air cylinder 15 is controlled to push out after t seconds, where t is the actual time of the workpiece reaching the end of the upper layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt 9. After the workpiece a1 passes through the upper layer feeding detection switch 12 and slides through the upper layer transition plate 10 to the end of the upper layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt 9, the synchronous material pushing air cylinder 15 pushes out, controls the material pushing block 13 to push the workpiece a1 upwards, the workpiece a1 falls into the receiving position of the receiving block 14, and the synchronous material pushing air cylinder 15 is retracted after one second, controls the material pushing block 13 to fall back below the upper layer transition plate 10, and prepares to push out the next workpiece a2. After the workpiece a1 falls into the receiving position of the receiving block 14, the receiving double-shaft air cylinder 16 is retracted, the workpiece a1 falls through the lower layer transition plate 19 and is placed in the feeding area of the lower layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt 18, the receiving double-shaft air cylinder 16 is retracted after one second, the PLC system controls the lower layer driving motor 17 to run in the direction of the push plate material pushing device 5 by D2, the receiving double-shaft air cylinder 16 is pushed out after one second, and is ready to receive the next workpiece a2. This step is the single workpiece up-down material transfer cycle. Third, the single workpiece up-down material transfer cycle of the second step is repeated until the workpiece a1 reaches the lower layer feeding detection switch 31 to trigger the lower layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt assembly 4, the cycle of the second step is stopped, and the fourth step is entered. Fourth, the double-shaft material pushing air cylinder inside the rack 1 is normally retracted, one second after the workpiece a1 reaches the lower layer feeding detection switch 31 to trigger, the PLC system controls the double-shaft material pushing air cylinder inside the rack 1 to push out, drives the material pushing push plate 20 to push the workpiece a1 into the receiving transition plate 21, and the double-shaft material pushing air cylinder inside the rack 1 is retracted after one second, preparing for the next time.The part a1 falls into the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt 22 through the receiving transition plate 21. After the equipment is started, the feeding drive motor 23 operates to drive the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt 22 to keep running. After the part a1 falls into the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt 22, it runs through the feeding detection switch 24 to trigger the feeding detection switch 24, indicating that the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt 22 is in a state of having parts at this time. The signal is fed back to the PLC system. The PLC system controls the double-shaft ejection cylinder inside the rack 1 to be unable to push out the ejection. The part a1 continues to run with the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt 22 and enters the grinding area of the centerless grinding machine to start grinding. At this time, the part a1 leaves the detection area of the feeding detection switch 24, the signal is interrupted, indicating that there is no part, and the signal is fed back to the PLC system. The PLC system controls the double-shaft ejection cylinder inside the rack 1 to push out and drive the ejection push plate 20 to push the part a2 into the receiving transition plate 21 and then fall into the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt 22. The feeding detection switch 24 is triggered accordingly. This step is a single part push plate material transfer cycle. In the fifth step, after the part a1 enters the grinding area of the centerless grinding machine and completes grinding, it enters the first feeding V wheel 26 of the V-shaped synchronous belt transfer machine 7 feeding end with the running power of the centerless grinding machine. The V-shaped synchronous belt transfer machine 7 is in a normal state after being started. The transfer drive motor 25 operates to drive the chain wheel to run and drive the transmission chain to transmit power to the second feeding V wheel 29 and the transfer V-shaped synchronous belt 27. The driven wheel of the transfer V-shaped synchronous belt 27 drives the first feeding V wheel 26 to rotate. The first feeding V wheel 26 drives the part a1 to enter the transfer V-shaped synchronous belt 27. When the part a1 triggers the detection switch in front of the air blowing and drying machine 28, the PLC system controls the air blowing and drying machine 28 to start blowing to blow off the grinding liquid and impurities on the surface of the part a1. When the part a1 continues to move out of the detection area of the detection switch, the PLC system controls the air blowing and drying machine 28 to stop blowing. The part a1 continues to move and enters the second feeding V wheel 29. When it reaches the detection area of the transfer position detection switch 30, the part a1 is limited by the end limiting structure and stops moving. The transfer position detection switch 30 feeds back the signal to the PLC system. The PLC system controls the mechanical hand jaw of the centerless grinding machine to clamp out the part a1 and places the workpiece in the discharging area of the upper double-sided tooth synchronous belt 9 of the circulating feeding equipment. After the placement is completed, the mechanical hand jaw returns above the transfer position detection switch 30 to prepare for the next clamping. This step is a single part clamping and material transfer cycle. In the sixth step, the above first step to the fifth step is cycled until all the placed parts are ground once. The grinding effect and size change are detected to prepare for the next cycle. This step is a single grinding cycle. In the seventh step, the sixth step is cycled until the parts are ground to the required size. The centerless grinding machine completes the through-type cycle grinding.

The loading method of the cyclic loading equipment for shaft parts applicable to the centerless grinding machine according to claim 3, characterized in that: First step, before grinding processing starts, the to-be-ground workpieces are placed on the upper layer synchronous belt line assembly (2) of the upper and lower layer support columns (11) in the feeding area by manual placement, different workpiece sizes can accommodate different numbers, and the spacing between every two workpieces is limited to D1≤12mm by the clamping mechanical hand, taking the workpiece with a diameter D=Ø10mm and a length L=330mm as an example, about 50 workpieces can be accommodated in one cycle of grinding; Second step, after the to-be-ground workpieces are placed, the equipment is started, the PLC system controls the upper layer driving motor (8) to drive the upper layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt (9) to run in the direction of the up and down material rotating device (3) by D2, wherein D2=(D1+D / 2)mm; the last to-be-ground part a1 passes through the upper layer material feeding detection switch (12), the upper layer material feeding detection switch (12) inputs a signal to the PLC system, the PLC system controls the receiving double-shaft air cylinder (16) to push out, and adjusts the receiving block (14) to a to-be-received state; at the same time, the synchronous material pushing air cylinder (15) is controlled to push out after t seconds, wherein t=the actual part arrival time at the end of the upper layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt (9), after the part a1 passes through the upper layer material feeding detection switch (12) and slides through the upper layer transition plate (10) to reach the end of the upper layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt (9), the synchronous material pushing air cylinder (15) pushes out, controls the material pushing block (13) to push the part a1 upwards, the part a1 falls into the receiving position of the receiving block (14), the synchronous material pushing air cylinder (15) is retracted after one second, controls the material pushing block (13) to fall back below the upper layer transition plate (10), and prepares to push out the next part a2; after the part a1 falls into the receiving position of the receiving block (14), the receiving double-shaft air cylinder (16) is retracted, the part a1 falls through the lower layer transition plate (19) and is placed in the feeding area of the lower layer double-sided tooth synchronous belt (18), the receiving double-shaft air cylinder (16) is retracted after one second, the PLC system controls the lower layer driving motor (17) to run in the direction of the push plate material pushing device (5) by D2, the receiving double-shaft air cylinder (16) is pushed out after one second, and the next part a2 is prepared to be received; this step is a single part up and down material rotating cycle; Third step, the single workpiece up and down material rotating cycle of the second step is repeated until the part a1 reaches the lower layer synchronous belt line assembly (4) and triggers the lower layer material feeding detection switch (31), the second cycle is stopped, and the fourth step is entered. The fourth step is that the double-shaft ejection cylinder inside the rack (1) is normally retracted, and the part a1 reaches the trigger lower layer material detection switch (31) after one second. The PLC system controls the double-shaft ejection cylinder inside the rack (1) to push out, drives the ejection push plate (20) to push the part a1 into the material receiving transition plate (21), and the double-shaft ejection cylinder inside the rack (1) is retracted after one second, preparing for the next push out. The part a1 falls into the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt (22) through the material receiving transition plate (21). The V-shaped synchronous belt feeder (6) runs after the equipment is started, drives the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt (22), keeps running, and the part a1 falls into the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt (22) and runs with the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt (22) through the feeding detection switch (24), triggers the feeding detection switch (24), indicating that the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt (22) is in a material state at this time, feeds the signal to the PLC system, and the PLC system controls the double-shaft ejection cylinder inside the rack (1) to be unable to push out the ejection. The part a1 continues to run with the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt (22) and enters the centerless grinding machine grinding area to start grinding. At this time, the part a1 leaves the detection area of the feeding detection switch (24), the signal is interrupted, indicating that there is no material, feeds the signal to the PLC system, and the PLC system controls the double-shaft ejection cylinder inside the rack (1) to push out, drives the ejection push plate (20) to push the part a2 into the material receiving transition plate (21) and fall into the feeding V-shaped synchronous belt (22), and then trigger the feeding detection switch (24) accordingly, to form a cycle. This step is a single part push plate material transfer cycle. The fifth step, after the part a1 enters the grinding area of the centerless grinding machine and is ground to completion, it enters the first feeding V wheel (26) of the V-shaped synchronous belt material transfer machine (7) through the power of the centerless grinding machine. The V-shaped synchronous belt material transfer machine (7) is in normal operation after starting, and the material transfer driving motor (25) operates to drive the chain wheel, which drives the transmission chain to transmit power to the second feeding V wheel (29) and the material transfer V-shaped synchronous belt (27). The driven wheel of the material transfer V-shaped synchronous belt (27) drives the first feeding V wheel (26) to rotate through chain transmission, and the first feeding V wheel (26) drives the part a1 to enter the material transfer V-shaped synchronous belt (27). When the part a1 triggers the detection switch in front of the air blowing and drying machine (28), the PLC system controls the air blowing and drying machine (28) to start blowing, and blows off the surface grinding fluid and impurities of the part a1. When the part a1 continues to move out of the detection area of the detection switch, the PLC system controls the air blowing and drying machine (28) to stop blowing. The part a1 continues to move and enters the second feeding V wheel (29). When it reaches the detection area of the material transfer in-place detection switch (30), the part a1 is limited by the end limiting structure and stops moving. The material transfer in-place detection switch (30) feeds back the signal to the PLC system, and the PLC system controls the mechanical hand clamp of the centerless grinding machine to clamp out the part a1, and places the workpiece on the upper double-sided tooth synchronous belt (9) of the circulating feeding equipment. After the placement is completed, the mechanical hand clamp returns to above the material transfer in-place detection switch (30) to prepare for the next clamping. The above steps are repeated to clamp and transfer the single part. The sixth step is to repeat the first to fifth steps until all the placed parts are ground once. The grinding effect and size change are detected to prepare for the next cycle. This step is a single grinding cycle. The seventh step is to repeat the sixth step until the part is ground to the required size. The centerless grinding machine completes the through-type cycle grinding.
