Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of motor shaft technology, and in particular to a one-time clamping and grinding process for a motor shaft with a drum-shaped surface, A reference surface, and B reference surface. Background Technology

[0002] The motor shaft is a core transmission component inside an electric motor (motor). It is typically a rigid metal cylinder (or irregularly shaped structure), fixedly connected to the rotor core at one end and extending to the outside of the motor at the other. It is the key carrier for the motor to convert internal electromagnetic energy into external mechanical energy. During the manufacturing process, the motor shaft requires surface grinding. One end of the motor shaft has a drum-shaped surface and reference surface A, while the other end has a reference surface B and the outer cylindrical surface of the resolver. Both ends of the motor shaft need to be ground. Currently, separate clamping and grinding are used, with the drum-shaped surface and reference surfaces A and B ground separately. This results in a relatively large runout of the drum-shaped surface, typically around 0.012 mm. This process can no longer meet the requirements of modern high-speed motor shafts, which require runout within 0.007 mm. Therefore, a grinding process that clamps one grinding wheel at a time is needed, making the solution to this problem essential. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this invention is to propose a one-time clamping grinding process for the drum-shaped surface, A reference surface, and B reference surface of a motor shaft, thereby solving the problems in the prior art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a one-time clamping grinding process for the drum-shaped surface, A reference surface, and B reference surface of a motor shaft, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Remove burrs / wear from the center holes at both ends of the motor, clean the surface oil, and ensure that the center holes are coaxial with the shaft centerline; Step 2: Clamp the motor shaft with the center hole of the motor shaft as the sole reference. Use double center clamping to ensure the coaxiality of the machined surface and the reference, and ensure the coaxiality of the workpiece is stable during the grinding process to avoid cumulative errors. Step 3: Use a grinding wheel to perform semi-finish grinding on datum surfaces A and B, and use the same grinding wheel to perform semi-finish grinding on the drum-shaped surface and the outer cylindrical surface of the rotary transformer. Step four: Use the same grinding wheel to fine grind the A reference surface and the B reference surface, and use the same grinding wheel to fine grind the drum-shaped surface and the outer cylindrical surface of the rotary transformer. Step 5: After the motor shaft has cooled to room temperature, loosen the clamp. Step six: Clean the motor shaft and check its size, shape, and positional accuracy.

[0005] Preferably, in step three, the transverse feed of the A reference surface and the B reference surface is 0.02-0.05 mm / time for semi-finish grinding, and the grinding is carried out until the allowance is 0.1-0.2 mm.

[0006] Preferably, in step three, the transverse feed for semi-finishing the drum-shaped surface and the outer cylindrical surface of the rotary mill is 0.005 mm / time, grinding to a remaining amount of 0.05-0.1 mm.

[0007] Preferably, in step four, the transverse feed rate for fine grinding of reference surfaces A and B is 0.005-0.01 mm / time, and the grinding wheel speed is 3000-3500 r / min.

[0008] Preferably, in step four, the transverse feed rate for fine grinding of the drum-shaped surface and the outer cylindrical surface of the rotary mill is 0.002-0.005 mm / time, and the grinding wheel speed is 3000-3500 r / min.

[0009] Preferably, after step two, a dial indicator is used to detect the runout of the outer circle, and the movable pin is adjusted to make the runout ≤0.01mm to ensure coaxiality before proceeding to step three.

[0010] Preferably, the end face of the grinding wheel is a stepped portion, the recessed part of the stepped portion is the A reference surface grinding surface, the protrusion of the stepped portion near the A reference surface grinding surface is the drum-shaped grinding surface, and the protrusion of the stepped portion away from the A reference surface grinding surface is the B reference surface and the rotational outer cylindrical surface grinding surface.

[0011] Preferably, the cooling in step five uses high-pressure internal cooling with a directional nozzle, with a cooling pressure of 3-5 MPa, a flow rate of 15-20 L / min, and the nozzle distance from the grinding zone is 10-15 mm.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention completes multi-face grinding in a single clamping, avoiding datum offset caused by multiple clampings, significantly improving the coaxiality and relative position accuracy of the A / B datum surfaces, the drum-shaped surface, and the resolver outer cylindrical surface, reducing the risk of "steering," eliminating cumulative errors, and improving precision. The use of a stepped grinding wheel integrates multi-feature grinding, reducing the number of grinding wheel changes, shortening auxiliary time, adapting to batch production scenarios, and optimizing processing efficiency. From center hole pretreatment to clamping runout detection, and then to differentiated grinding parameter settings, a closed-loop control of precision is achieved throughout the entire process, reducing scrap rate and stabilizing product quality. The high-pressure directional cooling scheme effectively removes grinding heat, reducing the impact of thermal deformation on shaft precision, ensuring dimensional stability, and suppressing thermal deformation. It can simultaneously process the drum-shaped surface and the resolver outer cylindrical surface, meeting the complex requirements of high-precision motor shafts and adapting to complex structures. High-precision machining reduces subsequent assembly wear, improving motor transmission efficiency and overall machine lifespan. These effects comprehensively balance precision, efficiency, and quality, making it particularly suitable for manufacturing motor shafts with stringent requirements for multiple datums and special curved surfaces.

[0018] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a one-time clamping grinding process for the drum-shaped surface, A reference surface, and B reference surface of a motor shaft, including the following steps: S1, remove burrs / wear from the center holes at both ends of the motor, clean the surface oil stains, and ensure that the center holes are coaxial with the shaft centerline; S2. Use a dial indicator to detect the runout of the outer circle, and adjust the movable pin to make the runout ≤0.01mm to ensure coaxiality; S3 uses the center hole of the motor shaft as the sole reference to clamp the motor shaft. The coaxiality between the machined surface and the reference is ensured by double center clamping, which ensures the coaxiality of the workpiece is stable during the grinding process and avoids cumulative errors. S4. Use a grinding wheel to perform semi-finish grinding on datum surface 2 (A) and datum surface 3 (B). The transverse feed of the grinding wheel is 0.02 mm / time, and the grinding is performed until the allowance is 0.1 mm. S5, using the S4 grinding wheel, performs semi-finish grinding on the drum-shaped surface 1 and the outer cylindrical surface 4 of the rotary millimeter. The transverse feed of the grinding wheel is 0.005mm / time, and the grinding is performed until the allowance is 0.05mm. S6, still using the above grinding wheel to fine grind A reference surface 2 and B reference surface 3, the transverse feed of the grinding wheel is 0.005 / time, and the grinding wheel speed is 3000r / min; S7, still using the above-mentioned grinding wheel to fine grind the drum-shaped surface 1 and the outer cylindrical surface 3, the transverse feed of the grinding wheel is 0.002 / time, and the grinding wheel speed is 3000r / min; Multi-face grinding can be completed in one clamping, avoiding the reference offset caused by multiple clamping, significantly improving the coaxiality and relative position accuracy of the A / B reference surface, the drum-shaped surface and the rotary outer cylindrical surface, reducing the risk of "sweeping" and eliminating cumulative errors, thus improving accuracy; S8, after the motor shaft is cooled to room temperature, the clamping is released. High-pressure internal cooling + directional nozzle is used, with a cooling pressure of 5MPa, a flow rate of 20L / min, and the nozzle distance from the grinding zone is 15mm. The high-pressure directional cooling scheme effectively removes grinding heat, reduces the impact of thermal deformation on shaft accuracy, ensures the stability of machining dimensions, and suppresses thermal deformation. S9 cleans the motor shaft and checks its size, shape, and positional accuracy.

[0019] like Figure 3 As shown, the end face of the grinding wheel is a stepped portion 5. The recessed part of the stepped portion is the A datum surface grinding surface 6. The protruding part of the stepped portion, on the side closer to the A datum surface grinding surface, is the drum-shaped grinding surface 7. The protruding part of the stepped portion, on the side farther from the A datum surface grinding surface, is the B datum surface and the rotational outer cylindrical surface grinding surface 8. This stepped grinding wheel integrates multi-feature grinding, reducing the number of grinding wheel changes, shortening auxiliary time, adapting to mass production scenarios, and optimizing processing efficiency.

[0020] The technical solution in this embodiment has high processing efficiency, and the outer diameter runout of 0.007 / AB is fully guaranteed, as shown in the table below: Therefore, it can be seen that the runout of the outer circle of the motor shaft obtained in this embodiment meets the requirements.
