[0002] A spherical bearing is a type of rolling bearing. The spherical balls are installed between the inner steel ring and the outer steel ring, which can bear a large load, and is also called a ball bearing.

[0003] The four-point contact super-precision machine is a high-precision surface processing equipment, mainly used for the super-precision grinding of precision parts such as bearings, automotive parts, and hydraulic components. Its core feature is to uniformly grind the workpiece with four contact points. Compared with traditional single-point or double-point super-precision machines, it can significantly improve the processing accuracy, surface quality, and efficiency.

[0004] Currently, when the four-point contact super-precision machine on the market processes the outer sleeve of the spherical bearing, since the four grinding heads are distributed around the fixture, it is interfered by the grinding heads during feeding, making it inconvenient to install the bearing sleeve for grinding work.

[0017] S2. Precision turning: Use diamond tools or CBN tools to machine structures such as raceways and ribs. The surface roughness is ≤Ra 0.4μm;

[0018] S3. Heat treatment: Quench the workpiece (oil quench at 840 - 860°C) and then immediately cryogenically cool it (-70 - -196°C) to reduce retained austenite (≤3%). Subsequently, perform low-temperature tempering at 150 - 180°C for heat preservation to eliminate stress and maintain hardness;

[0023] 1. When the third gear rotates in the present invention, it can drive the winding wheel to rotate. Moreover, the winding wheel can pull and displace the displacement cross plate through the connecting rope, so that the electromagnetic chuck can adsorb the bearing sleeve and move it out of the inside of the feeding cavity. At the same time, when the electromagnetic chuck moves the bearing sleeve to the clamping device, the electromagnetic chuck can release the bearing sleeve, enabling the bearing sleeve to be installed and placed. And, the first spring will drive the sealing plate to reset, so that the electromagnetic chuck can adsorb the bearing sleeve inside the feeding cavity again, completing the work of accurately positioning and placing the bearing sleeve.

When the third gear rotates in the present invention, it can drive the cam to rotate until it contacts the third photoelectric inductor, thereby starting the grinding device and the clamping device to process the bearing sleeve. Subsequently, the cam can squeeze the contact rod to displace backward, causing the rack to pass through the first gear and driving the receiving cavity to rotate to the lower part of the clamping device. And, when the support bottom plate displaces, it can drive the push rod to pass through the bearing sleeve. Subsequently, when the second piston rod contacts the grinding device, the extension arm can drive the push rod to displace forward, pushing the processed bearing sleeve forward and dropping it into the inside of the receiving cavity, completing the work of synchronously receiving materials.

[0046] The preparation process of a four-point contact super-precision machine ball bearing comprises the following steps:

[0047] S1. Material pretreatment: eliminating internal defects, refining crystal grains, and ultrasonic flaw detection: detecting internal cracks or inclusions in the material;

[0048] S2. Precision turning: using diamond tools or CBN tools to machine structures such as raceways and ribs, with the surface roughness ≤ Ra 0.4μm;

[0049] S3. Heat treatment: immediately cryogenic cooling (-70 to -196°C) after quenching (840 to 860°C oil quenching) the workpiece to reduce retained austenite (≤ 3%), and then tempering at 150 to 180°C for heat preservation to eliminate stress and maintain hardness;

[0050] S4. Super-finishing: operating the oilstone in the four-point contact super-precision machine to oscillate and grind the workpiece, reducing the roughness to Ra 0.01 to 0.05μm;

[0051] S5. Surface treatment: performing DLC process on the workpiece to coat the surface of the workpiece and extend its service life;

[0052] S6. Assembly and detection: assembling in a clean room to avoid dust pollution. At the same time, controlling the pre-tightening force with a torque wrench, and then using a roundness meter to perform the final roundness detection of the raceway.

[0053] The working principle of Embodiment 1 is as follows: When in use, first place the bearing sleeves into the interior of the feeding cavity 13 in sequence. Since the interior of the feeding cavity 13 is provided with placement holes adapted to the bearing sleeves, the bearing sleeves can be placed inside the feeding cavity 13, so that the bearing sleeve at the bottom layer inside the feeding cavity 13 can be aligned with the electromagnetic chuck 22. Subsequently, driving motors are installed at both ends inside the control system 46, and the shafts in the driving motors are connected to the third gear 45. The driving motors can be turned on to drive the third gear 45 to rotate. At this time, since the third gear 45 meshes with the second gear 40, the second gear 40 can be driven to rotate. When the second gear 40 rotates, the winding wheel 42 can be driven to rotate, so that the connecting rope 41 can pull the displacement cross plate 19 to move backward. At this time, since the blocking plate 16 is installed on the displacement cross plate 19, the displacement cross plate 19 can push the bearing sleeve inside the feeding cavity 13 to move backward through the blocking plate 16. Moreover, when the displacement cross plate 19 contacts the second photoelectric inductor 17, the electromagnetic chuck 22 can be powered on, so that the electromagnetic chuck 22 can adsorb the bearing sleeve inside the feeding cavity 13. Thus, when the blocking plate 16 moves, the electromagnetic chuck 22 can carry the bearing sleeve to move. And since an arc groove adapted to the blocking plate 16 is provided at the front end inside the feeding cavity 13, the blocking plate 16 can be allowed to slide inside the feeding cavity 13. Since the size of the electromagnetic chuck 22 is the same as that of the bearing sleeve, when the electromagnetic chuck 22 drives the bearing sleeve to move, the blocking plate 16 can enter the interior of the feeding cavity 13 to prevent the bearing sleeves on the upper layer inside the feeding cavity 13 from falling downward. Moreover, when the displacement cross plate 19 moves, it can also drive the contact block 18 to move to contact the bottom end of the chassis 25. Since a support base is fixedly installed on the grinding device 37 and the bottom end of the chassis 25 contacts the top end of the support base, the chassis 25 can be supported to maintain a horizontal state. Since the top of the rear end of the contact block 18 is inclined at 45°, when the contact block 18 contacts the bottom end of the chassis 25, the chassis 25 can be pushed to move upward. Since the chassis 25 is connected to the extension arm 26 and the extension arm 26 is rotatably installed on the first piston rod 27, when the chassis 25 is pushed, it can rotate upward with the first piston rod 27 as the axis to avoid interference between the electromagnetic chuck 22 driving the bearing sleeve and the push rod 35. Subsequently, when the displacement cross plate 19 moves backward to the limit position, the electromagnetic chuck 22 can drive the bearing sleeve to move onto the clamping device 39. Moreover, the blocking plate 16 can also drive the contact disk 15 to contact the first photoelectric inductor 14, so that the electromagnetic chuck 22 can be powered off to release the bearing sleeve and place it on the clamping device 39. At the same time, the third gear 45 can rotate 180°, so that the third gear 45 can disengage from the second gear 40. The displacement cross plate 19 loses the pulling force, and the elasticity of the first spring 20 will drive the displacement cross plate 19 to move forward to reset, causing the displacement cross plate 19 to contact the second photoelectric inductor 17. And the rear end of the electromagnetic chuck 22 can be flush with the inner wall of the placement hole inside the feeding cavity 13.Thus, the bearing sleeve on the upper layer inside the feeding cavity 13 drops downward to align with the electromagnetic chuck 22, completing the work of replenishing the bearing sleeve. Meanwhile, the contact block 18 can be moved out from the bottom end of the chassis 25, enabling the extension arm 26 and the push rod 35 to rotate downward to a horizontal state. Subsequently, after the third gear 45 rotates 180°, the cam 44 can contact the third photoelectric inductor 43. Since the third photoelectric inductor 43 is electrically connected to the control system 46, the control system 46 can operate the grinding device 37 and the clamping device 39. Thus, the clamping device 39 can clamp and rotate the bearing sleeve, and the four grinding devices 37 can synchronously move to contact the surface of the bearing sleeve for ultra-precision grinding of the bearing sleeve. When the cam 44 passes through the inside of the third photoelectric inductor 43, the grinding device 37 and the clamping device 39 can be in an operating state. When the cam 44 rotates out from the inside of the third photoelectric inductor 43, the control system 46 can drive the grinding device 37 and the clamping device 39 to reset, thereby releasing the bearing sleeve. Subsequently, when the third gear 45 continuously drives the cam 44 to rotate, the convex part of the cam 44 can rotate to contact the front end of the contact rod 8, causing the cam 44 to squeeze the contact rod 8 to drive the second special-shaped bracket 9 and the rack 10 to displace backward. Since the support base plate 29 is connected to the second special-shaped bracket 9, the support base plate 29 can displace synchronously. When the support base plate 29 displaces backward, it can drive the push rod 35 to contact the bearing sleeve on the clamping device 39. With the third spring 34 arranged between the push rod 35 and the extension arm 26, and the blocking frame 36 rotatably installed at the top end of the extension arm 26, when the push rod 35 contacts the bearing sleeve, the push rod 35 can rotate forward until the push rod 35 completely passes the bearing sleeve. Due to the elasticity of the third spring 34, it will pull the push rod 35 to move back to its original position. And since the anti-drop piece is fixedly installed at the rear end of the blocking frame 36, when the push rod 35 resets, it can contact the surface of the anti-drop piece, so that the push rod 35 can be horizontally aligned with the extension arm 26. When the push rod 35 passes the bearing sleeve, the support base plate 29 can continue to displace, so that the second piston rod 33 can contact the front end of the control system 46, enabling the second piston rod 33 to enter the inside of the air cylinder 28, and the first piston rod 27 displaces forward. When the first piston rod 27 displaces forward, it can drive the extension arm 26 and the push rod 35 to displace forward. Limited by the anti-drop piece at the rear end of the blocking frame 36, it can prevent the push rod 35 from rotating backward. Thus, when the extension arm 26 displaces, it can drive the push rod 35 to squeeze the bearing sleeve to move forward along the surface of the clamping device 39, so that the bearing sleeve can fall off from the clamping device 39. At the same time, while the support base plate 29 displaces, it can also drive the rack 10 to displace along the surface of the first gear 4, thereby driving the vertical rod 5 and the receiving cavity 6 to rotate. When the push rod 35 has not yet displaced forward to the limit position, the receiving cavity 6 can rotate to the bottom end of the clamping device 39. Thus, when the push rod 35 pushes the bearing sleeve out from the clamping device 39, the bearing sleeve can fall into the inside of the receiving cavity 6 for collection. And,The material of the receiving cavity 6 is plastic, which can avoid the phenomenon of the bearing sleeve being knocked. Subsequently, when the bearing sleeve is discharged, the convex part of the cam 44 can rotate to disengage from the contact rod 8. At this time, the elasticity of the second spring 30 will drive the support bottom plate 29 to move back to its original position to complete the work.

[0055] On the basis of Embodiment 1, as Figure 10 shown, the feeding cavity 13 further includes a support top frame 47, a feeding disk 48 and a hydraulic cylinder 49. The support top frame 47 is fixedly installed at the top end of the feeding cavity 13, the hydraulic cylinder 49 is fixedly installed at the front end of the support top frame 47, and the feeding disk 48 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the hydraulic cylinder 49.

[0056] When implementing this embodiment, when the bearing sleeve needs to be replenished inside the feeding cavity 13, the bearing sleeve can be placed inside the support top frame 47 so that the bearing sleeve can be vertically placed inside the support top frame 47. Subsequently, the hydraulic cylinder 49 can be activated to drive the feeding disk 48 to slide into the support top frame 47, thereby squeezing the bearing sleeve to slide inside the support top frame 47 in the direction of the feeding cavity 13. Since the support top frame 47 is provided with a feeding hole near the bottom end of the feeding cavity 13, when the bearing sleeve moves to be vertically aligned with the feeding hole, the bearing sleeve will fall into the feeding cavity 13 to complete the replenishment work of the bearing sleeve.

[0057] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
