DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The technical scheme and technical effects of the embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the present invention.

[0026] Please also see Figure 1 to Figure 2 A rough processing device 10 for a ball of a high hardness and brittle material comprises a socket 100, a first motor 200, a second motor 300, a slider group 310, a clamping device 400 and a workbench 500; the socket 100 uses a bowl-shaped grinding wheel to grind a material 600 to be processed into a sphere; the first motor 200 is connected to the socket 100, and the first motor 200 is used to drive the socket 100 to rotate to grind the material 600 to be processed; the second motor 300 is connected to the slider group 310, and the second motor 300 is connected to the slider group 310. 0, the slider group 310 is connected to the first motor 200, so as to drive the slider group 310 to move up and down through the second motor 300, drive the first motor 200 to move up and down, and the first motor 200 moves up and down and drives the socket 100 to approach or move away from the material 600 to be processed; the clamping device 400 is arranged on the workbench 500 and is located directly below the socket 100 to fix the material 600 to be processed during the process of grinding the material 600 by the socket 100. Among them, the diameter of the rough-machined ball is 50-280mm.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, there are five main stages in the rough processing of a sphere made of high-hardness and brittle materials. The first stage is to obtain a cylindrical body by drilling with a drilling device; the second stage is to cut one end of the cylindrical body and simply cut off a part of the material to make its shape multi-faceted and rough, close to a spherical surface, in order to reduce the workload of the next stage and improve the work efficiency of the next stage (if the work efficiency of the next stage is not considered at this stage, this stage can also be omitted and directly enter the next stage); the third stage is to use the rough processing device for spheres made of high-hardness and brittle materials of the utility model to round the cut part of the cylindrical body; the fourth stage is to cut the other end of the cylindrical body, and the requirements are similar to those of the second stage; the fifth stage is to use the rough processing device for spheres made of high-hardness and brittle materials of the utility model to round the cut part of the other end of the cylindrical body, thereby obtaining a sphere.

[0028] When the utility model performs rough machining on a sphere of high hardness and brittleness, the material to be machined 600 is first placed on the clamping device 400 and clamped and fixed, wherein the part to be ground (such as Figure 1 The second stage upward part or the fourth stage upward part) faces the socket device 100, and then the second motor 300 starts to work, controlling the first motor 200 to move downward to drive the socket device 100 close to the material 600 to be processed. When the socket device 100 is close to the material 600 to be processed, the first motor 200 starts and drives the socket device 100 to rotate. The socket device 100 contacts the material 600 to be processed during the rotation and grinds the material 600 to be processed. The socket device 100 adopts a bowl-shaped grinding wheel, so that the part to be ground of the material 600 to be processed can be rounded by rotation, and the grinding efficiency is high, the processing time is short, and the processing quality is high.

[0029] Further, please also see Figure 3 to Figure 4 , a plurality of raised teeth 110 are evenly distributed inside the socket 100, and electroplated corundum is provided on the surface of the teeth and the bottom surface of the socket, so that the electroplated corundum on the surface of the teeth and the surface of the socket is used to grind the material 600 to be processed. When the socket 100 rotates, the plurality of teeth 110 inside the socket 100 rotates accordingly, so that the entire curved surface of the material to be processed that needs to be ground can be covered, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the socket. In some embodiments, eight teeth are evenly distributed inside the socket 100, and the eight teeth are provided with mutually staggered tool grooves, so that the contact area between the electroplated corundum of the teeth and the material to be processed is more sufficient, thereby improving the grinding efficiency.

[0030] Further, please also see Figures 2 to 5The rough processing device 10 for a sphere of high hardness and brittle material also includes a main shaft 210, a first motor connecting plate 220 and a first motor connecting piece 230; the main shaft 210 runs through the first motor connecting plate 220 and the first motor connecting piece 230, and one end of the main shaft 210 is connected to the first motor 200, and the other end of the main shaft 210 is threadedly connected to the socket 100, so that the first motor 200 controls the rotation of the socket 100 through the main shaft 210; a water inlet 231 is provided on the side of the first motor connecting piece 230 facing the outside, and a water inlet pipeline 120 is provided on the upper part of the socket 100, and the water inlet 231 is connected to the water inlet pipeline 120, so that during the grinding process of the socket 100, water can be introduced into the socket 100 from the outside through the water inlet 231 and the water inlet pipeline 120. When the sphere is rough-processed, the first motor 200 drives the socket 100 to rotate through the main shaft 210, and the first motor connector 230 does not rotate. At the same time, external water is introduced from the water inlet 231 and enters the socket through the water inlet pipe 120. In the process of grinding the material to be processed by the socket, water is added while grinding. On the one hand, the temperature of the grinding part is reduced to prevent thermal stress from causing deformation of the sphere; on the other hand, powder is generated during the grinding process, and the powder is taken away by the water flow to prevent the powder from falling on the sphere and affecting the processing of the sphere. In some embodiments, a pipe thread is provided at the water inlet 231 for connecting the water inlet with an external water pipeline. In some embodiments, an overflow port is also provided on the upper part of the first motor connector 230 to overflow excess water.

[0031] Furthermore, the first motor connector 230 further includes a bearing 232 and a skeleton oil seal 233; the bearing 232 is connected to the skeleton oil seal 233, and the bearing 232 and the skeleton oil seal 233 are installed between the main shaft 210 and the first motor connector 230 to ensure the normal rotation of the socket 100. Specifically, Figure 5 As shown, two bearings and two skeleton oil seals are installed on the main shaft, and the main shaft 210 is supported by the bearing 232, which reduces the friction coefficient when the main shaft 210 rotates, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the socket ball device during rotation grinding. The skeleton oil seal 233 is installed in the middle of the two bearings to prevent the lubricating oil from leaking from the bearings, ensuring the normal operation of the main shaft and the socket ball device, and improving the working efficiency and life of the main shaft and the socket ball device. In some embodiments, the first motor connector is also equipped with a hole elastic ring, which is installed on the main shaft, plays a buffering and stabilizing role during the rotation of the main shaft, and prolongs the service life of the main shaft.

[0032] Further, please also see Figure 2 , Figure 6The slider group 310 further includes a ball screw 311, a track 312, and a ball screw connecting assembly 320. The second motor 300 is connected to the ball screw 311, and the ball screw 311 is connected to the first motor 200 through the ball screw connecting assembly 320, so that the second motor 300 drives the ball screw 311 to move and drive the first motor 200 to rise or fall. The ball screw can accurately control the moving distance of the first motor 200, and then accurately control the moving distance of the socket 100, thereby improving the grinding efficiency of the socket.

[0033] Furthermore, if Figure 6 As shown, the ball screw connection assembly 320 includes a first connection member 321, a second connection member 322, and a third connection member 323. Both sides of the first connection member 321 are connected to the first motor 200, the middle of the first connection member 321 is connected to the second connection member 322, the middle part of the second connection member 322 is connected to the ball screw 311, both sides of the second connection member 322 are connected to the third connection member 323, and the third connection member 323 is installed on the track 312. The track 312 is arranged parallel to the ball screw 311, so that when the second motor 300 drives the ball screw 311 to move, the second connection member 322 is driven to move, and when the second connection member 322 moves, the third connection member 323 is driven to move along the track, and when the second connection member 322 moves, it drives the first connection member 321 connected thereto to move, thereby driving the first motor 200 and the socket 100 to move. When the socket ball device needs to be lowered, the second motor 300 drives the ball screw 311 to move, and the nut of the ball screw 311 moves downward along the ball screw 311, and the second connecting member 322 connected to the ball screw 311 moves downward at the same time, and the second connecting member 322 is not only connected to the ball screw, but also connected to the third connecting members 323 on both sides of the ball screw 311, so that the second connecting member 322 can remain stable when moving; at the same time, the third connecting member 323 is connected to the track 312, and the second connecting member 322 moves downward. The third connecting member 323 is driven to move, and the third connecting member 323 moves downward along the track, so that the third connecting member 323 can keep the second connecting member 322 stable during movement, and will not affect the normal movement of the second connecting member 321; the first connecting member 321 is respectively connected to the second connecting member 322 and the first motor 200. When the second connecting member 322 moves downward, it will also drive the first connecting member 321 to move downward, thereby driving the first motor 200 to move downward, and the first motor 200 then drives the socket device to move downward.

[0034] Furthermore, if Figure 6As shown, dust covers 313 are provided on both sides of the ball screw 311 to isolate the ball screw 311 from the socket 100, and prevent dust generated by the socket 100 during grinding from entering the ball screw 311. The socket 100 generates dust during grinding, and if water is added while grinding, water will also splash out during the grinding process. By providing dust covers 313 on both sides of the ball screw 311, dust and water can be prevented from entering the ball screw to affect the normal operation of the ball screw, thereby extending the service life of the ball screw.

[0035] Further, please also see Figure 7 and Figure 8 The rough processing device 10 for high hardness and brittle material spheres further comprises a vacuum absorber 700, which is detachably mounted on the clamping device 400 to fix the processed side of the material 600 to be processed. Figure 1 In the fourth stage, one side of the cylindrical body has been rounded. If the rounded part is clamped directly with a clamping device, on the one hand, the rounded part has an arc and is not easy to fix. On the other hand, the clamping device will apply pressure to the contacting part during the clamping process, which may damage the rounded part. Therefore, the high-hardness and brittle material sphere rough processing device 10 of the utility model also includes a vacuum absorber 700, which is placed on the clamping device 400 for clamping, and the rounded part of the material to be processed is placed on the vacuum absorber 700. The vacuum absorber 700 is evacuated inside to firmly absorb the material to be processed by using the air pressure difference.

[0036] Furthermore, the first motor 200 is a reduction motor, and the second motor 300 is a servo motor. The reduction motor has a simple and relatively stable structure, and the rotation of the socket can be well controlled by the reduction motor to achieve grinding of the ball; the servo motor has high precision, and can achieve high-precision position control, and accurately control the feeding distance of the ball screw, so that the ball screw can be fed in a micro-amount, so as to better control the descending distance of the socket, so that the socket is accurately aligned with the part to be processed, and achieve accurate grinding of the part to be processed.

[0037] Furthermore, the clamping device 400 is a three-jaw chuck, and the three-jaw chuck utilizes the radial movement of three movable jaws evenly distributed on the chuck body to achieve clamping and fixing of the material to be processed.

[0038] The above disclosure is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it certainly cannot be used to limit the scope of the present invention. A person skilled in the art can understand that all or part of the processes of the above embodiments and equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention still fall within the scope of the present invention.
