[0020] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a method for protecting the surface of a composite material coating that is being ground is used, which uses high-pressure air to act on a water mist generator through a vortex tube to generate water mist with deionized water in the water mist generator. The water mist passes through a coating surface protection nozzle 6, a tool cleaning nozzle 5 and a chip removing nozzle 4 connected to the water mist generator to protect the surface of the composite material coating 2 that is being ground.

[0021] The protective coating surface nozzle 6 is a fan-shaped nozzle to increase the protection area; the angle between the axis of the protective coating surface nozzle 6 and the composite coating 2 is 35°, and the front end of the protective coating surface nozzle 6 faces the composite coating surface 2 and blows from the cutting end of the grinding tool 3 to the cutting end. The cleaning tool nozzle 5 is a columnar nozzle to increase the cleaning force; the position between the cleaning tool nozzle 5 and the grinding tool 3 is fixed during the processing; the cleaning tool nozzle 5 is respectively set on both sides of the grinding tool 3, and the front end of the cleaning tool nozzle 5 faces the surface of the grinding tool 3 and blows from the tail of the grinding tool 3 to the front end. The chip removal nozzle 4 is a columnar nozzle to increase the cleaning force; the position between the chip removal nozzle 4 and the grinding tool 3 is fixed during the processing; the angle between the axis of the chip removal nozzle 4 and the composite coating 2 is 9°, and the front end of the chip removal nozzle 4 faces the cutting surface and blows from the processed surface to the unprocessed surface. The air flow rate of the protective coating surface nozzle 6 is greater than the air flow rate of the cleaning tool nozzle 5 and the chip removal nozzle 4 to prevent the formation of excessive gas turbulence.

[0022] The vortex tube provides cooled high-pressure air to generate water mist with deionized water in the water mist generator. The vortex tube adjusts the water mist temperature to close to 0°C. The protective coating surface nozzle 6 works to form micro-ice crystals on the surface of the composite coating 2 for protection, and then the grinding process is performed to prevent contamination of the non-grinding surface of the composite coating 2. The cooling air source provided by the vortex tube can reduce the heat in the processing area and increase the life of the grinding tool 3.

[0023] During the machining process, the grinding tool cuts from the part substrate to the composite coating surface, so that the pollutants generated by grinding are kept away from the composite coating surface.

[0024] The number of the vortex tubes, water mist generators, protective coating surface nozzles 6, tool cleaning nozzles 5 and chip removal nozzles 4 is determined according to actual needs; the number of protective coating surface nozzles 6 is determined according to the area of ​​the composite material coating 2 to cover the entire coating surface; multiple vortex tubes with multiple nozzles can be used.

[0025] The cleaning method of the composite material coating 2 after grinding is as follows: place the composite material coating 2 in water, and then use a hose connected to a negative pressure device to move left and right along the contaminated part of the surface of the composite material coating 2, and use the porous and water-permeable characteristics of the composite material coating 2 to make the water flow rapidly through the contaminated part of the composite material coating 2, and use the flowing water to carry away the contaminated particles.
