[0028] The online dressing tool for the grinding wheel of the broach grinder has a simple structure, is easy to assemble and use, and can be installed on one side of the workbench of the broach grinder to dress the grinding tool of the broach grinder online, so that the shape and finish of the grinding tool are well maintained, and the grinding tool can also be reshaped to achieve the required shape. During the dressing process, there is no need to disassemble the grinding tool from the broach grinder, and the omnidirectional moving ability and flexibility of the grinding tool on the broach grinder can be directly used to achieve the dressing of the tool being dressed.

[0029] The provision of the tooling mounting seat 1 facilitates the installation of the entire tooling as a whole on the side of the workbench. In practice, the tooling mounting seat may not be provided, and the slide rail may be directly installed near the edge of the workbench.

[0030] The setting of the slide rail 2 facilitates the movement of the slide seat 3, thereby driving the first support seat 4, that is, driving the dressing motor 5 to move. The advantage of such a setting is that the position of the dressing tool 7 can be moved. In the non-dressing state, it can be moved to the corner of the workbench so that it is not within the main processing range of the broach grinder to avoid affecting the normal workpiece processing; when dressing is required, it can be moved to the active range of the broach grinder to perform online dressing of the grinding tools of the broach grinder.

[0031] The driving assembly can drive the slide 3 to move. When trimming is required, the slide 3 will be pushed to one end of the slide rail.

[0040] Furthermore, the second support seat 8 is arranged at an edge of the tooling mounting seat away from the slide rail, and an inclined rib plate is also provided between the second support seat 8 and the tooling mounting seat 1 .

[0041] Furthermore, an adjustable cushion block 13 is provided between the inner wall of the slide seat 3 and the outer wall of the slide rail 2 , and the cushion block 13 is connected to the slide seat 3 via an adjusting bolt 14 .

[0042] The setting of the cushion block 13 can adjust the gap between the slide seat 3 and the slide rail 2, that is, the tightness of the fit between the slide seat 3 and the slide rail 2, so that a stable and slidable connection state is formed between the slide seat 3 and the slide rail 2, thereby preventing the slide seat 3 from shaking during movement.

[0043] Furthermore, the slide rail 2 is a T-shaped slide rail, and a clearance groove 15 is provided in the middle of the upper end surface of the T-shaped slide rail along the length direction, and a plurality of groups of bolts connected to the tooling mounting seat 1 are provided in the clearance groove 15.

[0044] The setting of the clearance groove 15 can accommodate these bolts and prevent the heads of the bolts from protruding from the upper surface of the slide rail, and can also accommodate the connecting parts on the slide seat 3; such a setting can also make the structure of the slide rail 2 more compact and avoid connecting and fastening the slide rail with external bolts. This slide rail does not require a connecting wing plate at the bottom.

[0045] Furthermore, a lower limit protrusion 16 is provided at one end of the clearance groove 15 away from the driving assembly, and an upper limit protrusion 17 is provided at the inner bottom of the slide seat 3 to match the lower limit protrusion 16. The lower limit protrusion 16 is connected to the clearance groove 15 by bolts, and the upper limit protrusion 17 is connected to the inner bottom of the slide seat 3 by bolts.

[0046] The arrangement of the lower limit protrusion 16 and the upper limit protrusion 17 can form a hard limit at the leftmost end to prevent the slide 3 from being over-pushed out. The lower limit protrusion 16 and the upper limit protrusion 17 are just within the space range of the clearance groove, and the arrangement is also relatively convenient.

[0047] Furthermore, the slide seat 3 is an integrated slide seat or a split assembled slide seat, and a plurality of groups of lubrication channels are arranged in the slide seat 3 , and the lubrication channels extend to a plurality of sliding matching surfaces between the slide seat 3 and the slide rail 2 , respectively.

[0048] The present embodiment adopts a split assembly slide, and this structure of the slide is convenient for processing the holes inside it; Figure 4 As shown, the split assembled slide includes an upper seat plate 301, a pair of lower seat plates 302, and a pair of side seat plates 303 connected between the upper seat plate 301 and the lower seat plate 302. The structure enclosed by bolt connection can just be buckled on the slide rail 2. The pair of side seat plates 303 are located on both sides of the slide rail 2, the upper seat plate 301 is located on the upper surface of the slide rail 2, and the lower seat plate 302 is located on both sides of the bottom of the slide rail 2.

[0049] The lubrication channel includes a first lubrication channel 18 and a second lubrication channel 19 arranged in the upper seat plate 301, a third lubrication channel 20 in the lower seat plate 302, and a fourth lubrication channel 21 in the side seat plate 303; the first lubrication channel 18 is connected to the upper sliding mating surface of the slide rail 2 through a plurality of small holes, the third lubrication channel 20 is connected to the lower sliding mating surface of the slide rail 2 through a plurality of small holes respectively, the second lubrication channel 19 is connected to the fourth lubrication channel 21 through a small hole, and the fourth lubrication channel 21 is connected to the side sliding mating surface of the slide rail 2 through a small hole.

[0050] Through the provision of these lubrication channels, it is convenient to add lubricant to each sliding mating surface from the outside to play a lubricating role, which can not only ensure the stable matching relationship between the slide seat and the slide rail, but also enhance the smoothness of their movement.

[0051] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
