Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bearing processing, and specifically to a processing method for axial oil grooves and ribs of a wind power three-row column structure bearing. Background Art
[0002] The depth, size, appearance of the hardened layer of the axial oil groove and the quality of the raceway rib are one of the important conditions affecting the service life of large wind power three-row column structure yaw and pitch bearings. There are the following problems in the processing of such wind power three-row column structure bearings: ① After the bearing is quenched, the deformation is large, and the depth of the hardened layer of the oil groove becomes shallower after hard turning, not meeting the design requirements; ② After the bearing is quenched, the deformation is large, and the size of the oil groove after hard turning does not meet the drawing requirements; ③ The processing cost of hard turning the oil groove is high; ④ After hard turning, a protrusion will be formed at the boundary between the quenched and unquenched areas of the rib, and the convex point needs to be removed by re-turning.
[0003] Taking the 133.50.2965.03 (YJ) product in the prior art as an example, the processing process of the oil groove and the rib; ① First, the raceway is quenched. Affected by the wall thickness L between the oil groove and the mounting hole (as Figure 1 shown), the depth H of the hardened layer of the oil groove quenching needs to be controlled within H + 0.5; ② After tempering, the ovality of the oil groove and the rib is detected. When the ovality exceeds > 0.5 + the product shrinkage, thermal shaping is required to control the ovality < within 0.5 + the product shrinkage; ③ Hard turn the raceway rib (turn to a circle, with the required ovality of 0.1). If the finished product requirement of the oil groove is D ± 0.2 and the ovality is 0.4 at this time, then when turning the rib, the maximum radial dimension point between the oil groove and the rib should be controlled below 0.4 while ensuring that the size of the rib itself is within the tolerance range; ④ Hard turn the oil groove, just turn off all the oxide scales, machine with the minimum amount, ensure the deepest hardened layer after quenching, and ensure that the size of the oil groove is D ± 0.2; The technical defects in the above process are: ① Affected by raceway quenching and tooth surface quenching, the bearing will deform. According to the statistical data of 100 products, the diameter deformation is generally in the range of 0.6 - 1.4 mm, and the product shrinkage is in the range of 0 - 0.4 mm. When the product shrinkage is 0.4 / 2 + the quenching allowance of 0.5 = 0.7, it just meets the requirements of the maximum deformation product. When the product shrinkage is small and the deformation is large, after turning, the finished product requirements of the hardened layer of the oil groove cannot be met, and thermal shaping is required; ② Affected by the forging material, quenching, and machining, for products of the same size, the deformation amounts are different, resulting in some products having a large turning amount and some products having a small turning amount, causing waste of tools and waste of working hours; ③ After hard turning the oil groove according to the unified size, the hardened layer will be uneven in the circumferential direction, and the hardened layer on one side will be relatively shallow. When the deformation amount exceeds the reserved amount, the radial dimension of the oil groove at a certain position will not meet the drawing requirements. ④ After hard turning, a protrusion will be formed at the boundary between the quenched and unquenched parts on the retaining edge. When the finished product is assembled, it will just contact the spacer block, resulting in cage chips and affecting the service life of the bearing. The hard turning of the oil groove has a high processing cost and low production efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the technical problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a processing method for the axial oil groove and retaining edge of a wind power three-row column structure bearing by changing the process and adopting grinding instead of turning. It can maximize the retention of the hardened layer depth after hard turning while meeting the dimensional requirements of the retaining edge and oil groove, and improve production efficiency and reduce processing costs.
[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a processing method for the axial oil groove and retaining edge of a wind power three-row column structure bearing, characterized in that it includes the following steps: Step 1: Rough turn the oil groove and retaining edge required by the drawing according to the conventional turning process, and perform conventional quenching and tempering. Step 2: Detect the deformation amount of the oil groove and retaining edge after quenching and tempering. Step 3: According to the measured deformation amount value of the oil groove, after turning the retaining edge and oil groove first, grind the oil groove or directly grind the oil groove and retaining edge. After completing Step 3, clean the ring and perform other subsequent processing operations in the conventional manner.
[0006] Further, the detection of the deformation amount of the oil groove and retaining edge involved in Step 2 is to place the ring on the processing workbench and detect it by using a dial indicator in the conventional manner. Further, in Step 3, the grinding of the oil groove is to polish and grind it by using a profiling grinding wheel mechanism. Further, in Step 3, when the deformation amount X of the oil groove > 0.4 mm, turn the retaining edge and oil groove first, and then grind the oil groove. Further, the profiling grinding wheel mechanism includes: a grinding wheel shaft and a grinding wheel body connected to the grinding wheel shaft. The upper end of the grinding wheel shaft is connected to the upper power device by bolts. The grinding wheel body is a profiling design consistent with the shape of the oil groove. An annular chip discharge groove is provided on the lower end surface of the grinding wheel body to facilitate the discharge of the waste chips generated when the grinding wheel grinds the workpiece. Further, in Step 3, when the deformation amount X of the oil groove < 0.4 mm, directly grind the oil groove and retaining edge.
[0007] The beneficial effects of adopting this technical solution are: This processing method can maximize the retention of the hardened turning layer depth while meeting the dimensional requirements of the rib and oil groove, and improve production efficiency and reduce processing costs. By using grinding instead of turning, the problem of raised quenching boundaries in the turning method is solved. The grinding method shortens the processing time and improves production efficiency.

[0012] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the following detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present invention will be given in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to fully understand the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0013] The present solution is a processing method for the axial oil groove and rib of a wind power three-row column structure bearing taking the product of 133.50.2965.03 (YJ) as an example, which is characterized in that it includes the following steps: Step 1: Rough turn the oil groove and rib required by the drawing according to the conventional turning process, and perform conventional quenching and tempering; Step 2: Detect the deformation amount of the oil groove and rib after quenching and tempering; Step 3: According to the measured deformation amount value of the oil groove, perform turning of the rib and oil groove first, and then grind the oil groove or directly grind the oil groove and rib; After completing Step 3, clean the ring and perform other subsequent processing operations in a conventional manner.
[0014] Further, the detection of the deformation amount of the oil groove and rib involved in Step 2 is to place the ring on the workbench and detect it using a dial indicator in a conventional manner; Further, in Step 3, the grinding of the oil groove is to polish and grind it using a profiling grinding wheel mechanism; Further, in Step 3, when the deformation amount X of the oil groove > 0.4 mm, turn the rib and oil groove first, and then grind the oil groove; Specifically, for turning the rib and oil groove, the turning allowance X is -0.4 - 0.1 mm; an profiling grinding wheel mechanism is used for polishing and grinding the oil groove. Among them, the grinding wheel has a grit size of 180#, a hardness of 7P, a shape of 350 * 25 mm, and is ground into an arbitrary R-shaped oil groove. The axial depth of cut of the grinding wheel is 0.05 - 0.1 mm, the radial depth of cut is 0.1 - 0.2 mm, the grinding wheel speed is 1500 - 1600 r / min, and the workpiece speed is 4 - 5 r / min; Further, the profiling grinding wheel mechanism includes: a grinding wheel shaft 3 and a grinding wheel body 4 connected to the grinding wheel shaft 3. The upper end of the grinding wheel shaft 3 is bolted to the upper power device. The outer contour of the grinding wheel body 4 is a profiling design consistent with the shape of the oil groove. An annular chip discharge groove 4.1 is provided on the lower end face of the grinding wheel body 4 to facilitate the discharge of chips generated when the grinding wheel grinds the workpiece; Further, in the third step, when the deformation amount X of the oil groove < 0.4 mm, directly grind the oil groove and the rib; only round it during this process, the grinding allowance < 0.4 mm, and check whether it is qualified after grinding; Since the deformation amount has been detected to be < 0.4 mm before grinding, that is, the allowance can meet the requirements of grinding, the size after grinding, and the hardened layer all meet the drawing requirements.
[0015] The deformation amount of 0.4 mm of the oil groove in the third step is the allowance of 0.4 mm left for rough turning to finish turning; if the deformation amount exceeds 0.4 mm, for example, the deformation amount is 0.5 mm, at this time, the size is turned round, and the hardened layer will become shallower, not meeting the product requirements.
[0016] The deformation amount of the oil groove provided in this solution is 0.4 mm, which is determined as the best critical point for using the grinding method in this solution through data statistics during the processing of a large number of products. The specific detailed data is as Figure 3 shown in Table 1 below.
[0017] Based on the above technical solution, this solution uses grinding instead of turning. Because the surface roughness after grinding is generally Ra0.2 - 0.3, while the surface roughness after turning is generally Ra0.8 - 1.6; the surface roughness generally refers to the size of the unevenness. Using the grinding method is a way to reduce the unevenness value, and it solves the problem of the raised quenching boundary.
