Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of neodymium iron boron surface treatment, and particularly relates to a neodymium iron boron surface treatment device for surface infiltration of neodymium iron boron and a method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Neodymium iron boron permanent magnet material is widely used in new energy vehicle drive motor, wind turbine, consumer electronics and industrial automation due to its excellent magnetic energy product and coercive force. However, its magnetic performance decays seriously at high temperature, which is mainly caused by the high temperature coefficient of coercive force, resulting in a significant reduction of actual coercive force at high temperature. In order to improve its high temperature stability, the industry generally adopts grain boundary diffusion process to introduce heavy rare earth elements (such as dysprosium Dy and terbium Tb) on the surface of the magnet, so as to significantly improve the coercive force by selective diffusion along the grain boundary without significantly reducing the remanence. The process has very high requirements for the surface quality of the magnet, which must ensure that the surface is clean, free of oxide layer, free of burrs and has uniform and controllable roughness, so as to ensure the effective adsorption and uniform penetration of heavy rare earth elements. Therefore, surface polishing as a key pretreatment process before infiltration directly affects the subsequent diffusion effect and the final magnet performance.

[0003] At present, the surface treatment of neodymium iron boron magnet steel mostly adopts sand belt polishing or sand wheel polishing equipment. However, the existing equipment generally has low efficiency, low automation level and poor processing uniformity. For example, a neodymium iron boron surface treatment device for surface infiltration of neodymium iron boron disclosed in the patent with the authorization announcement number CN113843693B, although it realizes polishing of the surface of neodymium iron boron magnet steel, still has significant defects: first, it only sets a single polishing station, and the polishing head is fixed on the upper side, so it can only process one side of the neodymium iron boron magnet steel; when the other side needs to be polished, the neodymium iron boron magnet steel must be turned over, which not only increases the operation steps and prolongs the processing cycle, but also causes the positioning accuracy to decrease due to repeated clamping, affecting the consistency of the surface treatment of both sides; second, the device lacks multi-station alternating operation design, so the equipment must be stopped and waited during the unloading and loading process, causing the production rhythm to be interrupted, the equipment utilization rate to be low, and it being difficult to meet the actual needs of continuous and large-batch production; in addition, the neodymium iron boron magnet steel is usually in a static state during polishing, which causes uneven contact between the sand belt and the surface of the neodymium iron boron magnet steel, and easily causes local over-polishing or insufficient processing, affecting the uniformity of the surface quality.

Detailed Implementation

[0033] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this is not intended to limit the present invention.

[0034] Example 1: A neodymium iron boron surface treatment device for dripping onto neodymium iron boron surfaces, such as... Figures 1-7As shown, it comprises a rack 1, a rodless cylinder 2, a double-sided polishing mechanism 3, a support frame 9, a rotary positioning tool 4 and a driving mechanism 5. The rack 1 is a whole bearing structure. The rodless cylinder 2 is horizontally installed at the top rear side of the rack 1. The double-sided polishing mechanism 3 is installed on the moving slider of the rodless cylinder 2. The double-sided polishing mechanism 3 comprises two polishing units 34 arranged oppositely, which are used for synchronous polishing of the two sides of the Nd-Fe-B magnetic steel. The support frame 9 is connected to the middle of the top of the rack 1. The rotary positioning tool 4 is symmetrically installed on the support frame 9. The two polishing units 34 are respectively located at the front and rear sides of the rotary positioning tool 4. Each rotary positioning tool 4 is used for bearing the Nd-Fe-B magnetic steel to be processed. The rodless cylinder 2 drives the double-sided polishing mechanism 3 to move, and sequentially performs double-sided polishing on the Nd-Fe-B magnetic steels on the rotary positioning tools 4 on the left and right sides. The driving mechanism 5 is installed on the moving slider of the rodless cylinder 2. When the moving slider of the rodless cylinder 2 moves to the working position, the driving mechanism 5 is in transmission connection with the rotary positioning tool 4. The driving mechanism 5 drives the rotary positioning tool 4 to rotate. In the polishing process, the rotary positioning tool 4 drives the internal Nd-Fe-B magnetic steel to realize the compound motion of rotation and revolution, so as to ensure that the surface of the Nd-Fe-B magnetic steel uniformly contacts the polishing surface, thereby realizing uniform surface treatment.

[0035] When the device polishes the surface of the Nd-Fe-B magnetic steel, the Nd-Fe-B magnetic steel to be processed is first placed in the rotary positioning tool 4. Then, the rodless cylinder 2 drives the double-sided polishing mechanism 3 to move horizontally along the rack 1, so that it accurately reaches the front and rear positions of the Nd-Fe-B magnetic steel borne by the rotary positioning tool 4 at the current working position. At this time, the driving mechanism 5 is in transmission connection with the rotary positioning tool 4. After the driving mechanism 5 is started, it drives the rotary positioning tool 4 to rotate as a whole, so that the Nd-Fe-B magnetic steel realizes the compound motion of rotation and revolution inside. This motion mode ensures that the surfaces of the two sides of the Nd-Fe-B magnetic steel uniformly contact the polishing unit 34, so that the double-sided grinding is synchronously completed in one feeding, and the uniformity and smoothness of surface treatment are effectively improved. When the polishing of the Nd-Fe-B magnetic steel at this working position is completed, the rodless cylinder 2 drives the double-sided polishing mechanism 3 to move to the corresponding position of the rotary positioning tool 4 on the other side, and polishes another group of Nd-Fe-B magnetic steels to be processed. At the same time, the processed Nd-Fe-B magnetic steel can be unloaded from the rotary positioning tool 4 which has exited the polishing area, and a new workpiece to be processed can be loaded. Through the alternating operation of the working positions on the left and right sides, continuous and efficient polishing production is realized.

[0036] As shown in the drawings, Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, the polishing unit 34 includes a roller shaft 341, a polishing motor 342 and a sand belt 343, each of the roller shafts 341 is rotatably installed on the left and right sides of the moving frame 33, the polishing motor 342 is installed on the top of the right side of the moving frame 33, the output shaft of the polishing motor 342 is connected to the lower roller shaft 341 through a shaft coupling, and the sand belt 343 is sleeved on the outer sides of the two roller shafts 341, forming a sand belt 343 transmission polishing structure, realizing continuous grinding of the surface of the neodymium iron boron magnet.

[0037] When the polishing motor 342 is started, it drives the roller shaft 341 connected thereto to rotate, driving the sand belt 343 to continuously operate, forming a stable grinding surface. The neodymium iron boron magnet is in contact with the high-speed running sand belt 343 in the compound motion, realizing efficient and continuous surface grinding treatment, effectively removing the oxide layer and burrs, and improving the surface flatness.

[0038] Example 2: Based on example 1, as shown in Figure 3 The double-sided polishing mechanism 3 further includes a guide rail frame 31, an adjusting screw 32 and a moving frame 33. The guide rail frame 31 is fixed to the top of the moving slider of the rodless cylinder 2 by bolts. The adjusting screw 32 is rotatably installed on the top of the guide rail frame 31 at the middle position through two bearing seats. The two sides are provided with thread segments with opposite rotation directions. The moving frame 33 is slidably connected to the front and rear sides of the guide rail frame 31. Two polishing units 34 are installed on the two moving frames 33 respectively. Each of the moving frames 33 is provided with a nut on the top, and the nut is meshed and connected with the thread segment on the corresponding side of the adjusting screw 32. When the adjusting screw 32 is rotated, the two moving frames 33 can be driven to move synchronously towards or away from each other along the guide rail frame 31, so as to adjust the distance between the two polishing units 34, to adapt to the polishing requirements of neodymium iron boron magnets of different specifications.

[0039] The double-sided polishing mechanism 3 realizes accurate adjustment of the distance between the two polishing units 34 through the adjusting screw 32. When the adjusting screw 32 is manually rotated, the two moving frames 33 slide synchronously towards or away from each other on the guide rail frame 31, thereby driving the polishing units 34 installed thereon to approach or move away from each other. This structure can quickly adapt to neodymium iron boron magnets of different widths and sizes, improving the universality and efficiency of equipment change.

[0043] When the rodless cylinder 2 pushes the double-sided polishing mechanism 3 to the working position, the driving wheel 53 precisely presses the contact wheel 51 on the corresponding side. At this time, the motor of the driving wheel 53 is started, the contact wheel 51 is rotated by friction, and then the rotating shaft 42 and the sun gear 43 are driven to rotate, so that the planet gears 45 rotate around their own axis. The non-rigid connection mode of the driving wheel 53 and the contact wheel 51 allows the double-sided polishing mechanism 3 to move freely in the non-working stroke without interfering with the rotary positioning tool 4, which is simple in structure and stable in operation.
