Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of machining technology, and in particular to a precision external cylindrical grinding machine. Background Technology
[0002] External cylindrical grinding machines are machine tools that use grinding wheels to grind the outer cylindrical surface, conical surface, and other shaped surfaces of workpieces. They are widely used in the machining of precision parts in the machinery manufacturing industry. Current external cylindrical grinding machines, such as the one disclosed in invention patent CN114434226B and the one disclosed in invention patent CN102267071B, can all perform grinding on the outer cylindrical surface, conical surface, and other shaped surfaces of workpieces.
[0003] However, during use, it was found that existing cylindrical grinding machines, in order to meet the processing requirements of workpieces of different lengths, must have a bed length that is more than twice the workpiece length. This results in a large footprint, high manufacturing costs, and inconvenience in transportation and installation. Secondly, the manufacturing and installation of long bed guideways are difficult, and straightness errors are easily generated. At the same time, the motion stability of long-stroke worktables is poor, and vibrations are easily generated during high-speed movement, affecting machining accuracy and surface quality. Furthermore, the sliding or rolling guideways of existing cylindrical grinding machines wear out severely under long-term heavy-load operation, resulting in poor accuracy retention, short service life, and the need for frequent accuracy adjustments and maintenance. Moreover, the heat generated during processing can cause thermal deformation of the bed and worktable, further reducing machining accuracy, especially for high-precision parts. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a precision cylindrical grinding machine to improve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides an external cylindrical precision grinding machine that clamps the workpiece through a workpiece clamping mechanism, drives the workpiece to rotate through the workpiece clamping mechanism, and simultaneously runs and approaches the workpiece through an external cylindrical grinding mechanism to perform grinding on the outer diameter of the workpiece.
[0005] The present invention provides a precision external cylindrical grinding machine, comprising a hollowed-out bed; and further comprising a workpiece clamping mechanism and an external cylindrical grinding mechanism, both of which are mounted on the hollowed-out bed; The hollow bed provides stable support for the workpiece clamping mechanism and the external cylindrical grinding mechanism. The workpiece clamping mechanism clamps the workpiece and drives it to rotate, while the external cylindrical grinding mechanism grinds the outer diameter of the workpiece. The workpiece is clamped by the workpiece clamping mechanism, and then the workpiece is driven to rotate by the workpiece clamping mechanism. At the same time, the outer diameter grinding mechanism runs and approaches the workpiece to grind the outer diameter of the workpiece.
[0006] Preferably, the external cylindrical grinding mechanism includes a guide rail 1, a slide 1, a lead screw 1, a drive motor 1, a guide rail 2, a slide 2, a lead screw 2, a drive motor, a grinding head 1, and a grinding wheel. Guide rail 1 and drive motor 1 are both mounted on the die-cutting machine body. Slide 1 is slidably mounted on guide rail 1. Lead screw 1 is rotatably mounted on the die-cutting machine body, and one end of lead screw 1 is connected to the output shaft of drive motor 1. Lead screw 1 and slide 1 are threadedly connected. Guide rail 2 is mounted on slide 1 and slidably mounted on guide rail 2. Lead screw 2 is rotatably mounted on slide 1. The drive motor is fixedly mounted on... Mounted on slide one, with one end of lead screw two connected to the output shaft of drive motor, lead screw two and slide two are threaded together, machine head one is fixedly mounted on slide two, and grinding wheel is mounted on the spindle of machine head one; turn on drive motor one, and through lead screw one, slide one slides on guide rail one to adjust the position of grinding wheel laterally; turn on drive motor one, and through lead screw two, slide two slides on guide rail two to adjust the position of grinding wheel forward and backward; turn on machine head one to drive grinding wheel to rotate, facilitating grinding of the outer diameter of workpiece.
[0007] Preferably, the workpiece clamping mechanism includes a guide rail three, a front clamping end, a rear clamping end, a machine head two, a clamping head one, and a clamping head two. The guide rail three is mounted on the hollowing bed. The front clamping end and the rear clamping end are both slidably mounted on the guide rail three. The machine head two is mounted on the front clamping end. The clamping head one is mounted on the spindle of the machine head two. The clamping head two is rotatably mounted on the rear clamping end. The workpiece is placed between the clamping head one and the clamping head two, and the workpiece is clamped by the clamping head one and the clamping head two. Then, the machine head two drives the workpiece to rotate.
[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the first clamping head and the front clamping end are provided with a rotating structure; this facilitates the adjustment of the angle of the first clamping head, clamping irregularly shaped workpieces, and facilitating the adjustment of the grinding angle of the grinding wheel.
[0009] Preferably, guide rail 1, guide rail 2 and guide rail 3 are all hydrostatic guide rails; this reduces friction and improves the smoothness of equipment operation and machining accuracy.
[0010] Preferably, both the spindles of the first and second machine heads are hydrostatic spindles; this reduces friction and improves the smoothness of equipment operation and machining accuracy.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. The machining method adopts workpiece rotation and grinding head movement. The workpiece only rotates and does not move in a straight line. The grinding head moves back and forth along the transverse hydrostatic guide to complete the grinding of the entire workpiece length. Therefore, the length of the machine bed only needs to be slightly larger than the length of the workpiece. Compared with the traditional cylindrical grinding machine, it significantly reduces the equipment footprint, manufacturing costs and transportation and installation difficulties. 2. The guide rail adopts a hydrostatic guide rail, and a pressure oil film is formed between the guide rail surfaces, which realizes frictionless sliding, good motion stability and high positioning accuracy; 3.

Marble has the advantages of low thermal expansion coefficient, good rigidity and strong vibration resistance, which can effectively absorb vibration during the processing. 4. The worktable is equipped with a cooling circulation system, which can maintain a constant temperature and effectively suppress the impact of thermal deformation on machining accuracy. 5. The hydrostatic guide rail has no metal-to-metal contact wear, and the guide rail has good accuracy retention, which greatly reduces the maintenance cost and downtime of the equipment.
