Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of centerless lathe calibration, in particular to a center calibration tool and method for centerless lathe for turning round steel. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the production process of round steel special steel bar, it is common to use a centerless lathe to realize surface turning of the round steel bar. The round steel is turned into a conveying roller by a material turning mechanism, then clamped and sent into a front guide by a clamping roller, and then adjusted in centering by a front guide device to enter a turning main machine after the centering of the end of the round steel and the center of the cutter head. The cutter head drives the turning tool installed on the cutter head to rotate at high speed to turn the surface of the round steel. Then the clamping roller continuously clamps and sends the round steel forward, and the turned round steel enters a middle and rear guide centering device to ensure the stability of the round steel before and after the turning tool. When the tail of the round steel is about to be separated from the clamping roller, the rear clamping device of the centerless lathe operates to clamp the round steel and drives the rear clamping device to move forward at the same speed as the clamping roller by a screw rod mechanism, so as to avoid the loss of forward driving force and stability of the round steel. After the round steel is completely turned, the rear clamping device releases the round steel, the screw rod reverses and returns to the initial position, and the round steel is transported by the conveying roller and then enters the collection groove to complete the turning. After a long period of operation of the centerless lathe, due to problems such as excessive bending and ovality of the raw material, vibration of the equipment in operation, etc., the center of the front clamping device, the front centering wheel group of the middle and rear guide device, the rear directional wheel group and the rear clamping device will deviate, resulting in that the front, middle and rear centers of the equipment are not on the same straight line. This will cause the round steel to bend after turning or the turning center to deviate, resulting in different turning thicknesses of the round steel at different angles, and the surface turning of the deviated turning part will not be clean. In the related art, the eccentric adjustment of the front clamping device, the front centering wheel group of the middle and rear guide device, the rear directional wheel group and the rear clamping device of the centerless lathe is realized by manual observation. However, the center calibration adjustment precision of this method is low and the effect is poor. SUMMARY

[0035] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present disclosure / the present application, not all. The description of the at least one exemplary embodiment below is actually only illustrative, and is by no means any limitation on the present application and its application or use.
[0036] In the surface turning process of round steel bar by using a centerless lathe, the round steel is turned into a conveying roller by a material turning mechanism, and then is clamped and sent into a front guide by a clamping and sending roller. After the round steel end is adjusted to be centered with the center of a cutter head by a front guide device, the round steel enters a turning main machine. The cutter head drives a turning tool mounted on the cutter head to rotate at a high speed to turn the surface of the round steel. Then the clamping and sending roller continuously clamps and sends the round steel forward, and the turned round steel enters a centering device of a middle and rear guide to ensure the stability of the round steel before and after the turning tool. When the tail of the round steel is about to be separated from the clamping and sending roller, the rear clamping device of the centerless lathe operates to clamp the round steel and drives the rear clamping device to clamp the round steel forward at the same forward speed of the clamping and sending roller by a screw rod mechanism, so as to avoid the loss of forward power and stability of the round steel. After the round steel is completely turned, the rear clamping device releases the round steel after the round steel leaves the position of the cutter head, the screw rod is reversed and returns to the initial position, and the round steel is transmitted by the conveying roller and then enters a collecting groove to complete the turning. After the centerless lathe is operated for a long time, due to problems such as excessive bending degree and ovality of raw materials, vibration of equipment operation and the like, deviations may occur in the centers of the front clamping and sending device, the front centering wheel group and the rear directional wheel group of the middle and rear guide device and the center of the rear clamping device, which leads to the fact that the centers of the front, middle and rear of the equipment are not on the same straight line. This will lead to the fact that the turned round steel is bent or the turning center deviates, which causes the thickness of the round steel to be different at different angle directions, and the surface turning of the deviated turning part is not clean. A center calibration tool and method for round steel turning centerless lathe of the application are used for calibrating the centers of the front clamping and sending device, the front centering wheel group and the rear directional wheel group of the middle and rear guide device and the rear clamping device of the centerless lathe, and realizing the center calibration of the centerless lathe.
