Generally speaking, the gas meter aluminum shell is made of high-strength aluminum alloy material, which has good corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, and can withstand the influence of extreme environments such as high temperature and high pressure during use.

[0003] After casting, a series of subsequent treatments are required, such as grinding and polishing, to further improve the surface quality and aesthetics of the aluminum shell. In addition, the aluminum shell needs to be strictly tested to ensure that it meets relevant standards and requirements. Edge grinding of the gas meter aluminum shell after casting is an important process step. The main purpose of edge grinding is to remove burrs, flash and uneven edges generated during the casting process, so that the edge of the aluminum shell is smoother and neater.

[0004] Edging is usually performed using a professional edge grinder or a grinding wheel machine. Currently, an operator generally holds the aluminum shell of the gas meter and moves it to contact the edge grinder, and then uses the edge grinder to grind the shell. During the edging process, the edging position needs to be continuously changed to achieve a comprehensive edging operation. This places certain requirements on the operator, who needs to have certain skills and experience to control the depth and uniformity of the edging. In addition, manual hand-held shell edging is prone to fatigue and low efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0021] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that these descriptions are merely illustrative and exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] It should be noted that like reference numerals denote similar items in the following drawings, and thus, once an item is defined in one drawing, it may not be further defined or explained in subsequent drawings.

[0023] This embodiment mainly describes the structure of the edge grinding device, which is as follows:

[0024] An edge grinding device for casting and processing of aluminum shell of gas meter, such as Figure 1-3As shown, it includes a frame 1, a mobile frame 101, a cylinder 102, a pressure block 103, a mobile assembly 104, an edge grinding assembly 105, a chassis 2 and a supporting mechanism. The mobile frame 101 is slidably connected to the bottom of the frame 1. The mobile frame 101 is C-shaped. The top of the mobile frame 101 is installed with a cylinder 102. The telescopic rod of the cylinder 102 penetrates the mobile frame 101 and is rotatably connected to the pressure block 103. The mobile assembly 104 is arranged at the bottom of the frame 1. The mobile assembly 104 drives the mobile frame 101 to move. The edge grinding assembly 105 is arranged at the bottom of the frame 1. The edge grinding assembly 105 can be adaptively moved back and forth according to the edge of the aluminum shell of the gas meter. The bottom of the mobile frame 101 is rotatably connected to the chassis 2. The chassis 2 is controlled to rotate by a motor. A supporting mechanism is arranged on the chassis 2. After the aluminum shell of the gas meter is placed on the chassis 2, it is supported and fixed by the supporting mechanism.

[0025] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the supporting mechanism includes a fixed plate 3, a supporting block 4, a bidirectional screw 5, a rotating block 6, a contact block 7, a limiting rod 8 and a reset spring 9. The middle parts of the left and right sides of the chassis 2 are connected with a fixed plate 3, and the fixed plate 3 is rotatably connected with a bidirectional screw 5. Two supporting blocks 4 are threadedly connected to the bidirectional screw 5. The two supporting blocks 4 are symmetrically arranged. The support block 4 is slidably connected to the chassis 2. One end of the bidirectional screw 5 is connected to the rotating block 6. The supporting block 4 is slidably connected with a limiting rod 8. The outer end of the limiting rod 8 is connected with a contact block 7. A reset spring 9 is connected between the contact block 7 and the support block 4, and the reset spring 9 is sleeved on the outside of the limiting rod 8.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a dust-proof curtain 10 is also included. The upper front part of the movable frame 101 is connected with the dust-proof curtain 10. The dust-proof curtain 10 can block the debris generated during the edge grinding process.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, a protective pad 11 is also included. The contact block 7 is connected with the protective pad 11, and the protective pad 11 plays a protective role on the aluminum shell of the gas meter.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, an auxiliary roller 12 is also included. The upper part of the contact block 7 is rotatably connected to the auxiliary roller 12. The auxiliary roller 12 can be used to easily cover the aluminum shell of the gas meter on the outside of the contact block 7.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, an anti-skid pad 13 is also included. The outer side of the rotating block 6 is connected with the anti-skid pad 13. The anti-skid pad 13 plays an anti-skid role and facilitates the rotation of the rotating block 6.

[0030] like Figure 3As shown, a stopper 14 is also included. The contact block 7 is connected to the stopper 14 and is located below the protective pad 11. The stopper 14 can block and limit the aluminum shell of the gas meter so that the aluminum shell of the gas meter is maintained at a specific height when supported and fixed.

[0031] After the gas meter aluminum shell is cast, when it needs to be edged, the gas meter aluminum shell is put on the outside of the four contact blocks 7 from top to bottom, and the stopper 14 can limit the support of the gas meter aluminum shell to keep it at a certain height. Then, the rotating block 6 is rotated to drive the bidirectional screw 5 to rotate, and then drive the support block 4 to move outward. After the protective pad 11 contacts the inner wall of the gas meter aluminum shell, the contact block 7 stops moving. At this time, the support block 4 continues to move outward, and the reset spring 9 is deformed by force. After the gas meter aluminum shell is supported and fixed, the rotating block 6 is stopped, and then the cylinder 102 is started to drive the pressing block 103 to move downward to press the top of the gas meter aluminum shell, and then the moving frame 101 is driven to move backward through the moving assembly 104, so that the gas meter aluminum shell moves backward and contacts the edge grinding assembly 1 05 contact, the edge grinding component 105 can be started, and the chassis 2 is controlled to rotate through the motor, thereby driving the gas meter aluminum shell to rotate, and the edge grinding component 105 grinds the gas meter aluminum shell, and when the gas meter aluminum shell rotates, the gas meter aluminum shell will apply thrust to the edge grinding component 105, and the edge grinding component 105 can move adaptively in the front and rear directions, so that the irregular gas meter aluminum shell can be continuously edged, which improves work efficiency and does not require high technical skills for operators; after the edge grinding is completed, the edge grinding component 105 and the motor of the chassis 2 are turned off, and the moving component 104 is controlled to drive the moving frame 101 to move forward and reset, and then the cylinder 102 is started to drive the pressure block 103 to move upward and reset, and the rotating block 6 is reversed, so that the contact block 7 loosens the gas meter aluminum shell, and the gas meter aluminum shell can be taken out.
