[0038] like Figure 1-9As shown: A rail weld polishing device includes a enclosure 10, which is installed on the ground to form a closed working space, effectively preventing polishing debris from splashing and dust from escaping. Both sides of the enclosure 10 are equipped with transmission components for conveying the rails, ensuring continuous rail feeding. The transmission components include a first mounting base 19, a rotating roller 20, and a first rotating motor 21. The rotating roller 20 is movably installed within the cavity of the first mounting base 19, and the first rotating motor 21 drives... The rotating roller 20 rotates, and a polishing component 14 for polishing the rails is installed inside the enclosure 10 to achieve the core polishing function. Two sets of side doors 11 are movably connected to one side of the enclosure 10 via hinges, which facilitates the operation of personnel to enter the device for equipment inspection, maintenance and rail positioning adjustment. Rectangular grooves 22 are opened through both sides of the enclosure 10. The rails enter and exit the enclosure 10 through the rectangular grooves 22. The size of the rectangular grooves 22 is adapted to the cross-section of the rails, providing a stable entry and exit channel for the rails and ensuring that the rails do not deviate in posture during transportation. The rails smoothly enter and exit the enclosure 10 through the rectangular grooves 22.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 2-4 An electrical box 12 and a control box 13 are fixedly installed on the outside of the enclosure 10. The electrical box 12 is connected to two sets of first mounting blocks 27 via air pipes. The top of the control box 13 is integrated with a display screen 17 and control buttons 18. A PLC controller is installed inside the control box 13. The control box 13 is electrically connected to the first rotary motor 21, the servo motor 30, the second rotary motor 43, and the stepper motor 44. A high-power centrifugal fan 15 for dust removal is installed inside the enclosure 10. A mounting bracket 16 is fixedly installed between the outer wall of the high-power centrifugal fan 15 and the inner wall of the enclosure 10. Multiple sets of corrugated pipes 46 are connected to the bottom of the machine 15. The corrugated pipes 46 have flexible and deformable characteristics, which can adapt to the movement of the dust collection hood 47 with the polishing component 14. The bottom of the multiple sets of corrugated pipes 46 is connected to the dust collection hood 47. The multiple sets of dust collection hoods 47 are close to the corresponding first polishing roller 38 and second polishing roller 40. One end of the dust collection hood 47 is welded and fixed to the frame of the corresponding first protective cover 33 and second protective cover 41, so as to achieve close-range and efficient capture of dust and debris. The outer wall of the high-power centrifugal fan 15 is connected to the slag discharge pipe, which is used to discharge the collected dust and debris to the designated collection device to avoid accumulation and affect the operation of the equipment. By setting up the electrical box 12 and the control box 13, the electrical and control functions of the device are integrated. The combination of the display screen 17 and the control buttons 18 improves the ease of operation and parameter controllability of the device, ensuring that operators can keep abreast of the device's operating status and make quick adjustments. The high-power centrifugal fan 15, the corrugated pipe 46 and the dust collection hood 47 enable close-range and efficient dust capture and removal, improving dust capture efficiency, effectively reducing the dust concentration in the working environment, and protecting the health of operators.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 5-6 Support legs 24 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the base frame 23. The base frame 23 is placed on the ground by the support legs 24. The support legs 24 play a role in stabilizing and leveling, lifting the base frame 23 off the ground to prevent impurities and water accumulation from affecting the operation of the equipment, while ensuring the overall horizontality of the device. The moving plate 25 is located above the base frame 23. The moving plate 25 is used to support the core component of the polishing assembly 14. There are two first linear slide rails 26. The two first linear slide rails 26 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the first rotary motor 21. The bottom sides of the moving plate 25 are in a movable engagement relationship with the first linear slide rails 26, providing precise guidance and low friction support for the horizontal movement of the moving plate 25. A crossbeam 35 is fixedly installed inside the cavity of the bottom frame 23. A second mounting block 28 is fixedly installed at the top of the crossbeam 35. A first mounting block 27 is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom frame 23. A lead screw 29 is movably installed between the first mounting block 27 and the second mounting block 28. A servo motor 30 is fixedly installed on one side of the first mounting block 27. The output shaft of the servo motor 30 movably passes through the first mounting block 27 and is fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw 29. The lead screw 29 and the moving plate 25 are connected by a thread. By setting the transmission combination of the servo motor 30 and the lead screw 29, the displacement of the moving plate 25 is highly controllable. The position of the moving plate 25 can be flexibly adjusted according to the lateral position of the rail weld, ensuring that the first grinding roller 38 and the second grinding roller 40 can be accurately aligned with the weld area, greatly improving the accuracy of the polishing operation and the adaptability to different weld positions.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 Two sets of rectangular boxes 32 are symmetrically arranged and used to install the first grinding roller 38 and the first drive unit. A second linear slide rail 34 is also fixedly installed at the top of the moving plate 25. The bottom ends of the two sets of rectangular boxes 32 are in a movable engagement relationship with the second linear slide rail 34. The second linear slide rail 34 plays a limiting and guiding role in the movement of the rectangular boxes 32, providing precise guidance for the lateral movement of the rectangular boxes 32, restricting the rectangular boxes 32 to move only along the direction of the second linear slide rail 34, and preventing deviation. Two sets of columns 31 are symmetrically arranged, and a guide rod 36 is fixedly installed between the two sets of columns 31. The guide rod 36 movably passes through the two sets of rectangular boxes 32. The guide rod 36 is parallel to the second linear slide rail 34 and perpendicular to the two sets of rectangular boxes 32. The two sets of rectangular boxes 32 are hollow. By setting up a dual guide and restriction design with guide rod 36 and second linear slide rail 34, the movement trajectory of rectangular box 32 is restricted, ensuring the accuracy of the movement direction and the stability of the movement of rectangular box 32, and avoiding problems such as tilting and offset that affect polishing accuracy.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 8Both rectangular boxes 32 have stepper motors 44 fixed inside. The stepper motors 44 have high-precision speed adjustment and positioning functions, providing stable and precisely controllable rotational power for the first grinding roller 38. The output end of the stepper motor 44 is fixedly connected to a rotating spindle 45. The top of both rectangular boxes 32 is fixedly installed with a first protective cover 33 to block metal debris from splashing during the polishing of the first grinding roller 38, and to prevent the operator from accidentally touching the high-speed rotating first grinding roller 38, forming a safety protection barrier. The top of the rotating spindle 45 passes through the top of the rectangular box 32 through a bearing and is fixedly inserted through the first grinding roller 38. During the rotation of the first grinding roller 38, the rail weld is polished. The first grinding roller 38 is located inside the corresponding first protective cover 33. A stepper motor 44 drives the first grinding roller 38 to rotate via a rotating spindle 45. The stepper motor 44 has high-precision speed adjustment and positioning functions, enabling stepless adjustment of the speed of the first grinding roller 38. This adapts to different rail materials, weld thicknesses, and polishing precision requirements, improving the process adaptability of the device. The first protective cover 33 effectively blocks the spread of metal debris, protecting the surrounding environment and the safety of operators, while also preventing external dust and impurities from entering the grinding area and affecting the polishing effect.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 7 A second mounting base 42 is fixedly installed at the top of the movable plate 25. A second grinding roller 40 is movably installed between the second mounting bases 42. A second protective cover 41 is provided at the bottom of the outer wall of the second grinding roller 40. A second rotary motor 43 is fixedly installed on the top of the movable plate 25. A drive wheel is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the second rotary motor 43. A driven wheel is fixedly installed at one end of the central shaft of the second grinding roller 40. The drive wheel and the driven wheel are both fitted with a belt. When the second rotary motor 43 is working, it drives the drive wheel to rotate. The drive wheel and the driven wheel are both fitted with a belt. Through belt transmission, the second grinding roller 40, which is movably installed between the second mounting bases 42, rotates. The rotation of the second grinding roller 40 polishes the bottom of the rail, improving the overall polishing.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 9 There are two sets of cylinders 37, which are fixedly installed on the sides of the two sets of columns 31 that are close to each other. The telescopic ends of the two sets of cylinders 37 are fixedly connected to the corresponding rectangular boxes 32, thereby pushing the corresponding rectangular boxes 32 to move. The cylinders 37 can quickly adjust the lateral position of the first grinding roller 38, which can significantly shorten the changeover time, improve the adaptability of the device to different specifications of rails, and enhance its versatility. The thrust of the cylinders 37 is stable and can be adjusted by air pressure, so that the first grinding roller 38 and the rail weld maintain a constant contact pressure, avoiding uneven polishing depth caused by pressure fluctuations, and further optimizing polishing quality and process stability.

[0045] The implementation principle of the rail weld polishing device of the present invention is as follows:

[0046] First, the device is placed stably on the work surface using the support legs 24 at the four corners of the base frame 23. The support legs 24 are used to level the device to ensure that the overall level is maintained and to prevent impurities or water accumulation on the ground from affecting operation. The operator enters the device through the side door 11 on one side of the enclosure 10, inspects the polishing assembly 14, and then closes the side door 11. The operator inputs the rail specifications (width, thickness), weld position, and polishing precision parameters through the display screen 17 and control buttons 18 of the control box 13. After receiving the command, the PLC controller in the control box 13 drives the lead screw 29 to rotate in coordination with the servo motor 30, which drives the moving plate 25 to move precisely along the first linear slide rail 26, so that the polishing assembly 14 is initially aligned with the transverse area of ​​the rail weld. At the same time, the cylinder 37 adjusts the transverse spacing of the two sets of rectangular boxes 32 according to the rail width to ensure that the first grinding roller 38 is adapted to both sides of the rail.

[0047] Then, the steel rail to be processed is placed into the transmission assembly through the rectangular slots 22 on both sides of the enclosure 10. After the transmission assembly is started, it drives the steel rail to be fed smoothly and continuously. At the same time, the high-power centrifugal fan 15 is started, and the dust collection hood 47 welded to the frame of the first protective cover 33 and the second protective cover 41 captures the dust and debris generated in the polishing area at close range. The dust is collected into the high-power centrifugal fan 15 through the corrugated pipe 46 with flexible and deformable characteristics, and then discharged to the collection bucket through the slag discharge pipe. The stepper motor 44 drives the rotating spindle 45 to drive the first grinding roller 38 to a high position. The second rotary motor 43 drives the second grinding roller 40 to rotate synchronously via belt drive. The two sets of first grinding rollers 38 move smoothly along the double guide trajectory of the second linear slide rail 34 and guide rod 36 with the rectangular box 32, forming a coordinated polishing layout with the second grinding roller 40, fully covering the rail weld and surrounding area, and achieving precise grinding. During the process, the display screen 17 displays parameters such as the speed of the stepper motor 44 and the second rotary motor 43, the stroke of the cylinder 37 and the air volume of the high-power centrifugal fan 15 in real time, which is convenient for the operator to make dynamic adjustments.

[0048] Finally, after the rail polishing is completed, it is conveyed out of the enclosure 10 via the transmission component. The operator confirms the polishing effect through the display screen 17. If secondary polishing is required, the parameters can be readjusted and the operation repeated. The power supply of the equipment is turned off, the dust and debris in the dust collection device are cleaned, and the slag discharge pipe is checked for unobstructedness. The operator enters the enclosure 10 through the side door 11 to check the wear condition of the first polishing roller 38 and the second polishing roller 40, as well as the operation of vulnerable parts such as belts and bearings. Necessary replacements or maintenance are carried out to ensure the stability of the equipment in the next operation.

[0049] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed invention.
