[0070] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are that the crossbeam component moves along the y-axis guide rail in the y-axis direction through the crossbeam slider, the spindle box component moves in the z-axis direction along the z-axis guide rail through the first slider group, and the saddle component drives the spindle box component to move in the x-axis direction along the x-axis guide rail through the second slider group; the clamping component includes a conveying platform and a plurality of conveying grippers. After the workpiece to be ground is placed in the conveying gripper, it is conveyed to above the grinding disk by the rotation of the conveying platform for grinding; the present invention simultaneously grinds multiple workpieces in multiple directions through the guide rails arranged in three dimensions and the plurality of conveying grippers of the clamping component, processes multiple workpieces at the same time, greatly improves the production efficiency, reduces the movement and positioning errors of the workpieces during the processing, and improves the processing accuracy.

[0071] Furthermore, the thermal deformation of the grinding machine is mainly caused by the deformation of machine tool components induced by internal and external heat sources of the machine tool, such as motors, bearings, transmission parts, hydraulic systems, ambient temperature, and coolant, including the thermal deformation of the grinding spindle, X-axis lead screw, Y-axis lead screw, and Z-axis lead screw. When thermal deformation occurs in the grinding spindle or lead screw, its axial position will generate errors, and the amount of thermal deformation at different positions is different. In the present invention, the temperature grade of the spindle temperature is judged by setting a standard temperature, and corresponding weights are set according to the influence degree of the lead screw on the grinding accuracy. The judgment criteria for the degree of thermal deformation are set according to the weights, which improves the accuracy and adaptability of judging the temperature grade and the degree of thermal deformation.

[0072] Furthermore, thermal deformation has a serious impact on grinding accuracy and efficiency. When the components of the grinding machine undergo thermal deformation, the errors in the machining process will increase significantly, even leading to the scrapping of workpieces. In addition, thermal deformation will also cause an increase in the vibration and noise of the machine tool, affecting the machining quality. At the same time, thermal deformation will change the structure of the machine tool, increasing the difficulty and cost of adjustment and maintenance. In the present invention, the thermal deformation error is calculated based on the spindle temperature. When the thermal deformation error exceeds the standard error, it is determined that the grinding spindle or lead screw has generated thermal deformation that can affect the grinding accuracy. The feed rates of the X-axis lead screw, Y-axis lead screw, and Z-axis lead screw are adjusted accordingly, so as to correct and compensate for the movement of the grinding head during the grinding process, reduce or eliminate the influence of thermal deformation on the machining accuracy, improve the grinding efficiency and quality, and extend the service life of the grinding machine. And because the temperature of the grinding spindle is affected by the grinding temperature, when the grinding spindle is at the second degree of thermal deformation, the cooling rate of the cooling device is adjusted accordingly, and the degree of thermal deformation of the grinding spindle is reduced by reducing the grinding temperature, further increasing the flexibility and adaptability of adjusting the grinding accuracy.

[0073] Furthermore, the thermal deformation generated by the lead screw when the spindle temperature is at the second temperature grade is different in orientation from the feed amount generated by the movement of the grinding head along the set direction, and the influence on the actual feed amount of the grinding head is also different. The actual feed amount of the grinding head may be too large or too small under the influence of the thermal deformation of the lead screw. In the present invention, the specific deviation of the deviation of the thermal deformation of the lead screw on grinding is judged according to the relative relationship between the coordinates of the center point of the grinding head in the grinding coordinate system and the corresponding feed amount. When there is a deviation between the grinding coordinate and the corresponding feed amount, different adjustment schemes are adopted according to the specific deviation situation, and the corresponding feed amount is adjusted by adjusting the feed speed of the grinding machine in the axial direction, reducing the influence of the thermal deformation generated by the lead screw on the grinding process of the workpiece surface in the plane, making the positioning accuracy of the lead screw more stable, and significantly reducing the flatness error of the workpiece surface, thereby improving the grinding quality.

[0074] Further, during the grinding process of the grinding machine, there are differences in the movement laws of the grinding head in the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis directions. The differences are as follows: during the grinding process, the grinding head continuously moves in the x-axis and y-axis directions at corresponding feed speeds to grind the workpiece, while after the grinding head moves in place in the z-axis direction, a certain grinding pressure is applied to the workpiece, and it moves slightly in the z-axis direction with the change of the grinding depth during the grinding process, and stops when the grinding depth or grinding duration reaches a certain amount; and different from the grinding deviation in the x-axis and y-axis directions, the grinding deviation in the z-axis direction is affected by two thermal deformation errors of the z-axis lead screw and the grinding rotating shaft at the same time. The present invention normalizes the two influencing parameters through the grinding pressure and adjusts them uniformly in the z-axis direction, improving the accuracy of grinding the workpiece; after the workpiece grinding is completed, it is determined whether the grinding deviation caused by thermal deformation during the grinding process is within the normal range, and according to the determination result, the evaluation standard of the temperature level for judging the rotating shaft temperature is called back, improving the precision of grinding the workpiece and further reducing the influence of thermal deformation on the grinding accuracy of the workpiece.

[0075] Further, the determination unit judges the working state of the current grinding machine according to the number of lead screws in the second thermal deformation degree. When the number of lead screws generating thermal deformation exceeds the set value, since the temperature of the lead screw is affected by the temperature of the motor, the control unit reduces the feed speed of the lead screw by adjusting the motor speed, thereby reducing the thermal deformation degree of the lead screw, reducing the damage caused to the device by excessive temperature, avoiding the grinding machine being in a thermal deformation state for a long time, increasing the service life of the device, and preventing the device structure from changing.

[0076] Further, a number of hollow grooves are provided on the outer walls of each module of the grinding machine in this embodiment, which can reduce the weight of the grinding machine and improve the overall structural strength and rigidity. Description of the Drawings

[0088] The present invention provides a multi-spindle multi-station precision grinding machine, including:

[0089] A grinding head positioning and driving unit, used to position and move the grinding head capable of grinding workpieces and drive the grinding head to rotate for grinding;

[0090] A detection unit, which includes a pressure sensor and several temperature sensors. Each of the temperature sensors is arranged at different positions of the grinding head positioning and driving unit, and can perform real-time spindle temperature detection on each detection point of the grinding head positioning and driving unit;

[0091] A determination unit, which determines the temperature grade of the spindle temperature according to the temperature detection data of the detection unit, sets the evaluation criteria for determining the degree of thermal deformation according to the weights of the spindle or the lead screw, and determines the degree of thermal deformation of the grinding spindle and the lead screw according to the thermal deformation error; determines whether the grinding deviation is within the normal range according to the deviation difference, and calls back the determination criteria for the temperature grade of the spindle temperature;

[0092] An analysis unit, which calculates the thermal deformation error according to the spindle temperature, judges the grinding deviation orientation according to the degree of thermal deformation of the grinding spindle and the lead screw, judges the specific situation of the deviation according to the grinding coordinates, and judges whether the grinding pressure exceeds the normal range, and adopts different adjustment schemes according to the grinding deviation orientation; calculates the deviation difference between the feed amount of the grinding head and the corresponding standard value, and the grinding depth, and judges the working state of the current grinding machine according to the number of lead screws in the second degree of thermal deformation;

[0093] A control unit adjusts the feed speed in different directions according to the specific situation of the deviation, adjusts the motor speed according to the working state of the grinding machine, and adjusts the grinding depth according to the ratio of the standard pressure to the grinding pressure.

[0094] Specifically, the crossbeam component moves along the y-axis direction on the y-axis guide rail through the crossbeam slider, the spindle box component moves along the z-axis guide rail in the z-axis direction through the first slider group, and the saddle component drives the spindle box component to move in the x-axis direction along the x-axis guide rail through the second slider group; the clamping component includes a conveying platform and several conveying grippers. After the workpiece to be ground is placed in the conveying gripper, it is conveyed above the grinding disc by the rotation of the conveying platform for grinding; the present invention simultaneously grinds multiple workpieces in multiple directions through the guide rails arranged in three dimensions and several conveying grippers of the clamping component, processes multiple workpieces at the same time, greatly improves the production efficiency, reduces the movement and positioning errors of the workpieces during the processing, and improves the processing accuracy.

[0095] The grinding head grinds the workpiece at an initial grinding pressure, an initial feed rate, and an initial grinding speed. After the grinding duration for the workpiece reaches the initial grinding duration, the grinding stops, and the clamping component conveys the next workpiece to the grinding disc to start grinding;

[0096] During the grinding process, the detection unit senses the temperatures of a number of rotating shafts on the grinding rotating shaft and three lead screws in real time, and the determination unit compares the temperatures of the number of rotating shafts with the standard temperature.

[0097] If the temperature of any rotating shaft is less than or equal to the standard temperature, the determination unit determines that the temperature of the rotating shaft is at the first temperature level;

[0098] If the temperature of any rotating shaft is greater than the standard temperature, the determination unit determines that the temperature of the rotating shaft is at the second temperature level;

[0099] Set the first weight of the x-axis lead screw, the second weight of the y-axis lead screw, the third weight of the z-axis lead screw, and the fourth weight of the grinding rotating shaft;

[0100] The fourth weight is greater than the third weight which is greater than the first weight, and the first weight is equal to the second weight;

[0101] Wherein, the standard temperature is a preset value set according to the historical data of the temperatures of the grinding rotating shaft and the lead screws.

[0102] Specifically, the influence of the thermal deformation of the grinding rotating shaft on the grinding accuracy is greater than the influence of the thermal deformation of the z-axis lead screw on the grinding accuracy, and the influence of the thermal deformation of the x-axis lead screw on the grinding accuracy is equal to the influence of the thermal deformation of the y-axis lead screw on the grinding accuracy.

[0103] Specifically, the thermal deformation of the grinding machine is mainly caused by the deformation of the machine tool components caused by internal and external heat sources of the machine tool such as motors, bearings, transmission parts, hydraulic systems, ambient temperature, and coolant, including the thermal deformation of the grinding rotating shaft, the x-axis lead screw, the y-axis lead screw, and the z-axis lead screw; when the grinding rotating shaft or the lead screw undergoes thermal deformation, its axial position will generate an error, and the thermal deformation amounts at different positions are different. In the present invention, the temperature level of the rotating shaft temperature is judged by the set standard temperature, and corresponding weights are set according to the influence of the lead screw on the grinding accuracy, and the evaluation criteria for judging the degree of thermal deformation are set according to the weights, improving the accuracy and adaptability of judging the temperature level and the degree of thermal deformation.

[0104] When the temperature of the rotating shaft is at the second temperature level, the analysis unit calculates the thermal deformation error according to the temperature of the rotating shaft. The error curve of the grinding rotating shaft or the lead screw at a specific temperature can be approximately regarded as a straight line, and is described by the mathematical formula: Ex = Eo + K×(Px - Po);

[0105] Among them, Ex represents the thermal deformation error when the X-axis coordinate is Px; Eo represents the thermal deformation error of the X-axis at Po; K is the thermal deformation rate of the X-axis at this temperature, and K = tan(β).

[0106] The analysis unit compares the thermal deformation error with the standard error.

[0107] If the thermal deformation error is less than the standard error, the determination unit determines that the corresponding grinding rotating shaft or lead screw is in the first degree of thermal deformation.

[0108] If the thermal deformation error is greater than or equal to the standard error, the determination unit determines that the corresponding grinding rotating shaft or lead screw is in the second degree of thermal deformation, and a grinding deviation is generated during the grinding process. The analysis unit judges the orientation of the grinding deviation.

[0109] Wherein the standard error is equal to the product of the reference error and the weight corresponding to the grinding rotating shaft and the lead screw, and the reference error is a preset value set according to the historical data of the thermal deformation error of the grinding rotating shaft and the lead screw.

[0110] Specifically, when both the grinding rotating shaft and the z-axis lead screw are in the second degree of thermal deformation, the analysis unit adjusts the feed amount of the z-axis lead screw according to the sum of the thermal deformation errors of the grinding rotating shaft and the z-axis lead screw.

[0111] When the grinding rotating shaft is in the second degree of thermal deformation, the control unit increases the cooling rate of the cooling device according to the ratio of the rotating shaft temperature to the standard temperature.

[0112] Specifically, thermal deformation has a serious impact on grinding accuracy and efficiency. When the components of the grinding machine undergo thermal deformation, the errors in the processing process will increase significantly, even leading to the scrapping of the workpiece; in addition, thermal deformation will also cause an increase in the vibration and noise of the machine tool, affecting the processing quality; at the same time, thermal deformation will change the structure of the machine tool, increasing the difficulty and cost of adjustment and maintenance; the present invention calculates the thermal deformation error according to the rotating shaft temperature, determines that the grinding rotating shaft or lead screw has generated thermal deformation that can affect the grinding accuracy when the thermal deformation error exceeds the standard error, and adjusts the feed amounts of the x-axis lead screw, y-axis lead screw, and z-axis lead screw accordingly, so as to correct and compensate for the movement of the grinding head during the grinding process, reduce or eliminate the influence of thermal deformation on the processing accuracy, improve the grinding efficiency and quality, and extend the service life of the grinding machine. And because the temperature of the grinding rotating shaft is affected by the grinding temperature, when the grinding rotating shaft is in the second degree of thermal deformation, the cooling rate of the cooling device is adjusted accordingly, and the thermal deformation degree of the grinding rotating shaft is reduced by reducing the grinding temperature, further increasing the flexibility and adaptability of adjusting the grinding accuracy.

[0113] When a grinding deviation occurs during the grinding process, the analysis unit judges the orientation of the grinding deviation and adopts different adjustment schemes according to the orientation of the grinding deviation.

[0114] If the x-axis lead screw and the y-axis lead screw are at the second thermal deformation level, the analysis unit determines that the grinding deviation orientation is a planar grinding deviation;

[0115] If the z-axis lead screw and the grinding rotation shaft are at the second thermal deformation level, the analysis unit determines that the grinding deviation orientation is a three-dimensional grinding deviation;

[0116] When the grinding deviation orientation is a planar grinding deviation, a grinding coordinate system is established, and the analysis unit determines the specific situation of the deviation;

[0117] The origin of the grinding coordinate system is the center point of the grinding disc. The positive and negative directions of the x-axis and y-axis of the grinding coordinate system can be set according to specific requirements and are not limited here;

[0118] The analysis unit obtains the grinding coordinates (x0, y0) of the center point of the grinding head in the grinding coordinate system,

[0119] If x0 and y0 are greater than the x-axis feed rate and the y-axis feed rate, the analysis unit determines that the specific situation of the deviation is a first quadrant deviation, and the control unit reduces the x-axis feed speed and the y-axis feed speed;

[0120] If x0 is greater than the x-axis feed rate and y0 is less than the y-axis feed rate, the analysis unit determines that the specific situation of the deviation is a second quadrant deviation, and the control unit reduces the x-axis feed speed and increases the y-axis feed speed;

[0121] If x0 is less than the x-axis feed rate and y0 is greater than the y-axis feed rate, the analysis unit determines that the specific situation of the deviation is a third quadrant deviation, and the control unit increases the x-axis feed speed and reduces the y-axis feed speed;

[0122] If x0 and y0 are less than the x-axis feed rate and the y-axis feed rate, the analysis unit determines that the specific situation of the deviation is a fourth quadrant deviation, and the control unit increases the x-axis feed speed and the y-axis feed speed;

[0123] In implementation, the control unit adjusts the x-axis feed speed and the y-axis feed speed according to the ratio of the grinding coordinates (x0, y0) to the x-axis feed rate and the y-axis feed rate;

[0124] Specifically, when the temperature of the lead screw is at the second temperature level, the thermal deformation of the lead screw and the feed amount generated by the movement of the grinding head along the set direction are different in orientation, and the influence on the actual feed amount of the grinding head is also different. The actual feed amount of the grinding head may be larger or smaller under the influence of the thermal deformation of the lead screw. The present invention determines the specific situation of the deviation caused by the thermal deformation of the lead screw during grinding according to the relative relationship between the coordinates of the center point of the grinding head in the grinding coordinate system and the corresponding feed amount. When there is a deviation between the grinding coordinate and the corresponding feed amount, different adjustment schemes are adopted according to the specific situation of the deviation, and the corresponding feed amount is adjusted by adjusting the feed speed of the grinding machine in the axial direction, so as to reduce the influence of the thermal deformation of the lead screw on the grinding process of the workpiece surface on the plane, make the positioning accuracy of the lead screw more stable, and significantly reduce the flatness error of the workpiece surface, thereby improving the grinding quality.

[0125] When the grinding deviation orientation is a three-dimensional grinding deviation, the detection unit detects the grinding pressure borne by the workpiece through a pressure sensor arranged on the grinding platform, and the analysis unit compares the grinding pressure with the standard pressure.

[0126] If the grinding pressure is greater than the standard pressure, the analysis unit determines that the grinding pressure exceeds the normal range, and the control unit reduces the grinding depth according to the ratio of the standard pressure to the grinding pressure.

[0127] Among them, the standard pressure is a preset value set according to the historical data of the grinding pressure borne by the workpiece that has passed the qualification test.

[0128] After the current workpiece grinding is completed, the analysis unit calculates the deviation difference between the x-axis feed amount and the y-axis feed amount of the grinding head and the standard feed amount, and the deviation difference between the grinding depth and the standard depth.

[0129] If the deviation difference is less than or equal to the difference evaluation value, the determination unit determines that the grinding deviation caused by the thermal deformation during the grinding process is within the normal range.

[0130] If the deviation difference is greater than the difference evaluation value, the determination unit determines that the grinding deviation caused by the thermal deformation during the grinding process exceeds the normal range, and reduces the standard temperature according to the ratio of the difference evaluation value to the deviation difference.

[0131] Specifically, during the grinding process of the grinding machine, there are differences in the movement laws of the grinding head in the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis directions. The differences are as follows: during the grinding process, the grinding head continuously moves in the x-axis and y-axis directions at corresponding feed speeds to grind the workpiece, while after the grinding head moves in place in the z-axis direction, a certain grinding pressure is applied to the workpiece, and it moves slightly in the z-axis direction with the change of the grinding depth during the grinding process, and stops when the grinding depth or grinding duration reaches a certain amount; and different from the grinding deviations in the x-axis and y-axis directions, the grinding deviation in the z-axis direction is affected by two thermal deformation errors of the z-axis lead screw and the grinding rotating shaft at the same time. The present invention normalizes the two influencing parameters through the grinding pressure and adjusts them uniformly in the z-axis direction, improving the accuracy of grinding the workpiece; after the workpiece grinding is completed, it is determined whether the grinding deviation caused by the thermal deformation during the grinding process is within the normal range, and according to the determination result, the evaluation standard of the temperature grade for judging the rotating shaft temperature is called back, improving the precision of grinding the workpiece and further reducing the influence of thermal deformation on the grinding accuracy of the workpiece.

[0132] After the current workpiece grinding is completed, the detection unit detects the number of lead screws in the second thermal deformation degree.

[0133] If the number of lead screws is less than or equal to the standard number, the determination unit determines that the grinding machine is in the first working state;

[0134] If the number of lead screws is greater than the standard number, the determination unit determines that the grinding machine is in the second working state;

[0135] When the grinding machine is in the second working state, the control unit adjusts the motor speed to reduce the feed speed of the lead screw;

[0136] Wherein, the standard number is a preset value set according to specific requirements.

[0137] Specifically, the determination unit determines the working state of the current grinding machine according to the number of lead screws in the second thermal deformation degree. When the number of lead screws generating thermal deformation exceeds the set value, since the temperature of the lead screw is affected by the temperature of the motor, the control unit reduces the feed speed of the lead screw by adjusting the motor speed, thereby reducing the thermal deformation degree of the lead screw, reducing the damage caused by excessive temperature to the device, avoiding the grinding machine being in the thermal deformation state for a long time, increasing the service life of the device, and preventing the device structure from changing.
