When the material tray 4 rotates, the metal After being loaded from the loading area 51, the parts can pass through the guide area 52, the pressing area 53, the grinding area 54 and the unloading area 55 in sequence, realizing continuous and efficient loading and grinding operations. This design reduces the transfer and positioning time of the workpiece during the grinding process and improves production efficiency; the guide area 52 design of the material tray 4 helps to accurately pre-position the metal parts before entering the grinding area 54, ensuring that each metal part can enter the grinding area 54 with the correct posture; the pressing area 53 further ensures that the metal parts maintain a stable position during the grinding process, avoiding the metal parts from falling before entering the grinding area 54; the edge grinding component 2 is arranged at the front end of the grinding area 54, and grinds a single side of the metal part. This design enables the edge grinding component 2 to accurately control the grinding force, speed and depth, ensuring that the single-sided grinding of the metal part meets the predetermined requirements.

[0025] The partition design of the material tray 4 makes the functions of each area clear, which is convenient for operators to observe and adjust. At the same time, the edge grinding component 2 is located at the front end of the material tray 4, which is convenient for maintenance and replacement. In addition, the installation positions of the material tray 4 and the edge grinding component 2 are relatively fixed, which reduces the difficulty and cost of equipment maintenance.

[0026] In summary, the design of the material tray 4 has the advantages of high efficiency, precision, optimized path, and easy operation and maintenance for single-sided grinding of metal parts, and can significantly improve the production efficiency and quality of single-sided grinding of metal parts.

Four tensioning wheels 61 are equidistantly arranged around the material tray 4. They keep the abutment cable 62 in a certain tension state through appropriate tensioning force. The tensioning wheel 61 can adjust the tightness of the abutment cable 62 to adapt to workpieces of different sizes or thicknesses; the abutment cable 62 forms an arc shape in the grinding area 54 of the material tray 4. This shape enables the abutment cable 62 to fit the contour of the material tray 4, thereby abutting the workpiece more evenly. The abutment cable 62 is located in the abutment area 53, which means that in this area, the workpiece will be The abutment cable 62 abuts from the periphery, so that the metal part is always clamped in the workpiece clamping position 41 when it turns from the upper end to the lower end; because the abutment cable 62 can firmly abut the workpiece, the workpiece maintains a stable posture and position during the grinding process, thereby improving the grinding accuracy and consistency, and the uniform abutment of the abutment cable 62 can avoid damage to the workpiece due to shaking or deviation during the grinding process, thereby protecting the quality of the workpiece; in summary, through the synergistic effect of the tensioning wheel 61 and the abutment cable 62, stable abutment and fixation of the workpiece are achieved, thereby producing the effects of improving grinding accuracy, reducing workpiece damage, improving production efficiency and enhancing equipment applicability.
