[0002] In general gantry grinders, the grinding wheel spindle is fixed on the gantry beam. If the grinding wheel spindle is placed vertically up and down, the grinding wheel is placed horizontally, and the circumferential surface of the grinding wheel can only contact the four horizontal sides of the workpiece at most, and cannot directly process the top surface of the workpiece. The workpiece needs to be flipped once, and the top surface of the workpiece needs to be flipped to the horizontal side of the workpiece, so that the existing grinder can process the original top surface of the workpiece. However, once the workpiece is flipped, the tool must be re-calibrated, which is time-consuming and affects the processing accuracy.

Alternatively, an additional horizontally placed grinding wheel spindle is set on the gantry beam, and the additional grinding wheel is placed vertically, and its circumferential surface can contact the top surface of the workpiece, but such a design will significantly increase the manufacturing cost and the load of the gantry beam.

[0036] Workpiece WP [Specific implementation method]

[0037] In order to facilitate a better understanding of the purpose, structure, characteristics and functions of the present invention, the present invention is further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 9As shown, the gantry grinder 1000 includes a base 1 extending along the X-axis; a carrier 2 on the base 1 that can move along the X-axis and is used to place a workpiece WP; two gantry columns 3 connected to the base 1; a gantry beam 4 connecting the two gantry columns 3, and the gantry beam 4 extends along the Y-axis perpendicular to the X-axis; a slide 5 that can move along the Y-axis is provided on the gantry beam 4; the Z-axis is perpendicular to the X-axis and the Y-axis, a slide 6 is installed on the slide 5 and can move along the Z-axis, the front surface of the slide 6 has a receiving space (not numbered) that is recessed backwards, and a bearing 61 is provided in the receiving space; a rotating motor (not shown) is installed on the rear side of the slide 6, and the rotating motor has a through A first rotating shaft 7 passes through the bearing 61, and the axis R of the first rotating shaft 7 is parallel to the X-axis. A grinding wheel spindle 8 is installed and connected with the first rotating shaft 7 passing through the bearing 61 in front of the slide 6. The grinding wheel spindle 8 includes a grinding wheel 81 and a spindle motor 82. The spindle motor 82 has a second rotating shaft 821. The second rotating shaft 821 drives the grinding wheel 81 to rotate. The first rotating shaft 7 can drive the grinding wheel spindle 8 to rotate as a whole, so that the second rotating shaft 821 of the grinding wheel spindle 8 can rotate and switch between a vertical state parallel to the Z axis and a horizontal state parallel to the Y axis. The grinding wheel 81 can process multiple surfaces to be processed, such as the top surface and each side surface of the workpiece WP. In this embodiment, in order to conveniently explain the purpose of the gantry grinder 1000 described in the utility model, it is assumed that the four side surfaces and the top surface of the workpiece WP, a total of five surfaces, are perpendicular to each other and are all used as surfaces to be processed. However, the utility model does not limit the specific shape of the workpiece WP to be processed and the specific position of the surface to be processed when the gantry grinder 1000 is actually used.

[0039] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the grinding wheel spindle 8 can rotate around the axis R of the first rotating shaft 7, and the second rotating shaft 821 can rotate and switch between a vertical state parallel to the Z axis and a horizontal state parallel to the Y axis. When the second rotating shaft 821 is in the vertical state, the grinding wheel spindle 8 is defined to rotate 0 degrees, and the rotation range of the grinding wheel spindle 8 is -90 degrees to +90 degrees. Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the second rotating shaft 821 and the entire grinding wheel spindle 8 are in a horizontal state of +90 degrees; Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the second rotating shaft 821 and the entire grinding wheel spindle 8 are in a vertical state of 0 degrees.

Figures 2 to 4If the top surface of the workpiece WP is to be processed, the grinding wheel spindle 8 is rotated +90 degrees or -90 degrees to a horizontal state. In the horizontal state, the circumferential surface of the grinding wheel 81 is opposite to the top surface of the workpiece WP, and the circumferential surface of the grinding wheel 81 can contact the top surface of the workpiece WP, thereby realizing the processing of the top surface.

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the base 1 has a first driving device A1 and a first horizontal slide rail A2 parallel to the X-axis, the carrier 2 is slidably mounted on the first horizontal slide rail A2, and the first driving device A1 drives the carrier 2 to move along the first horizontal slide rail A2.

The slide 5 has a third driving device C1 and a vertical slide rail C2 parallel to the Z-axis, the slide 6 is slidably mounted on the vertical slide rail C2, and the third driving device C1 drives the slide 6 to move relative to the slide 5 along the Z-axis. The first driving device A1, the second driving device B1 and the third driving device C1 are all motors in this embodiment, and other solutions such as hydraulic drive can be selected in other embodiments. The gantry grinder 1000 also includes a plurality of foldable shields FS for covering the first drive device A1, the first horizontal slide rail A2, the second drive device B1 and the second horizontal slide rail B2. Two of the foldable shields FS are installed along the X-axis at both ends of the base 1 and connected to the carrier 2, and extend and retract along the X-axis as the carrier 2 moves. Two of the foldable shields FS are installed along the Y-axis at both ends of the gantry beam 4 and connected to the slide 5, and extend and retract along the Y-axis as the slide 5 moves.

[0041] like Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, the grinding wheel spindle 8 includes a grinding wheel cover 83 and a grinding wheel cover rotating mechanism 84. The grinding wheel cover 83 covers a portion of the grinding wheel 81, and the grinding wheel cover 83 has an opening 831. The opening 831 is oriented perpendicular to the second rotating shaft 821 so that the circumferential surface of the grinding wheel 81 is exposed. The grinding wheel cover rotating mechanism 84 includes a base plate 841, an eccentric motor 842, a driving gear 843 and a driven gear 844. The eccentric motor 842 is fixed on the side of the base plate 841 facing away from the grinding wheel 81, and the rotating shaft of the eccentric motor 842 passes through the base plate. 841 and the driving gear 843 is connected to the side of the substrate 841 facing the grinding wheel 81, the driving gear 843 is meshed with the driven gear 844, the driven gear 844 is located on the radial outer side of the driving gear 843, the driven gear 844 is sleeved on the second rotating shaft 821 and is located between the substrate 841 and the grinding wheel 81, a part of the grinding wheel cover 83 is inserted between the driven gear 844 and the grinding wheel 81, and the part of the grinding wheel cover 83 is fixed to the driven gear 844 by several screws and rotates with the driven gear 844. In this embodiment, the number of teeth of the driven gear 844 is greater than the number of teeth of the driving gear 843, so that the grinding wheel cover 83 can reduce the speed relative to the eccentric motor 842 and rotate stably.

[0042] like Figure 5 As shown, the slide 5 includes a mounting portion 51 located on the upper side of the gantry beam 4 and a carrying portion 52 located on the front side of the gantry beam 4, the slide seat 6 and the vertical slide rail C2 are arranged on the front side of the carrying portion 52, and the third driving device C1 is installed on the top surface of the carrying portion 52.

[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, the gantry grinder 1000 also has a control cabinet arranged beside the gantry column 3, and a control module 9 is arranged in the control cabinet to control the gantry grinder 1000 to process the five surfaces of the workpiece WP according to a predetermined program.

[0044] like Figure 3As shown, when the gantry grinder 1000 processes the top surface of the workpiece WP, the rotating motor drives the grinding wheel spindle 8 to rotate +90 degrees around the axis R of the first rotating shaft 7 (it can rotate -90 degrees in other embodiments), so that the grinding wheel spindle 8 is in a horizontal state and parallel to the Y axis, and the grinding wheel 81 is located on the right side of the spindle motor 82, and the grinding wheel 81 is perpendicular to the Y axis, so that the circumferential surface of the grinding wheel 81 can face the top surface of the workpiece WP; if the opening 831 of the grinding wheel cover 83 is not facing downward at this time, the eccentric motor 842 is started, and the eccentric motor 842 drives the grinding wheel cover 83 to rotate around the grinding wheel spindle 8, and the opening 831 faces downward; then the slide 6 drives the grinding wheel spindle 8 to rise a certain height along the Z axis, the carrier 2 drives the workpiece WP to move a certain distance along the X axis, and at the same time, the slide 5 drives the grinding wheel spindle 8 to move a certain distance along the Y axis, so that the grinding wheel 81 is located directly above the workpiece WP. At this time, the circumferential surface of the grinding wheel 81 is exposed downward from the opening 831 of the grinding wheel cover 83 and can directly contact the top surface of the workpiece WP.

[0045] like Figure 5 As shown, when the gantry grinder 1000 processes the right side of the workpiece WP, the grinding wheel spindle 8 is in a vertical state and parallel to the Z axis, and the grinding wheel 81 is located below the spindle motor 82, and the grinding wheel 81 is perpendicular to the Z axis, so that the circumferential surface of the grinding wheel 81 can face the right side of the workpiece WP; if the opening 831 of the grinding wheel cover 83 does not face the left side of the right side of the workpiece WP at this time, the eccentric motor 842 is started, and the eccentric motor 842 drives the grinding wheel cover 83 to rotate around the axis until the opening 831 faces the left side of the workpiece WP; then the slide 6 drives the grinding wheel spindle 8 to rise and fall along the Z axis to adjust the height, the carrier 2 drives the workpiece WP to move a certain distance along the X axis, and at the same time, the slide 5 drives the grinding wheel spindle 8 to move a certain distance along the Y axis, so that the grinding wheel 81 is located to the right of the workpiece WP. At this time, the circumferential surface of the grinding wheel 81 is exposed to the left from the opening 831 of the grinding wheel cover 83 and can directly contact the right side surface of the workpiece WP.

[0046] like Figures 7 to 9As shown, when the gantry grinder 1000 processes the front side, left side or rear side of the workpiece WP, the operation process of the gantry grinder 1000 is similar to that of processing the right side of the workpiece WP, the grinding wheel spindle 8 is in a vertical state and parallel to the Z axis, and the grinding wheel 81 is located below the spindle motor 82, and the grinding wheel 81 is perpendicular to the Z axis, so that the circumferential surface of the grinding wheel 81 can face the front side, left side or rear side of the workpiece WP; if the opening 831 of the grinding wheel cover 83 does not face the surface to be processed at this time, the eccentric motor 842 is started, and the eccentric motor 842 drives the grinding wheel cover 83 to rotate around the axis until the opening 831 faces the corresponding surface to be processed; then the grinding wheel 81 is adjusted relative to the workpiece WP along the X axis, Y axis, and Z axis, so that the grinding wheel 81 can face the surface to be processed.

[0047] The gantry grinder of the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0048] (1) The grinding wheel spindle 8 is installed on the rotating motor so that the grinding wheel spindle 8 can rotate around the first rotating shaft 7 parallel to the X-axis. The grinding wheel spindle 8 can be transformed from a vertical state parallel to the Z-axis to a horizontal state parallel to the Y-axis, so that the grinding wheel 81 facing the side of the workpiece WP can be rotated to the top surface of the workpiece WP, and the circumferential surface of the grinding wheel 81 can be switched to the top of the workpiece WP to process the top surface of the workpiece WP. It is not necessary to manually flip the workpiece WP or set up an additional grinding wheel spindle 8 to process the top surface of the workpiece WP. In addition, with the grinding wheel 81 moving along the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis relative to the workpiece WP, the gantry grinder 1000 can process the five mutually perpendicular surfaces to be processed of the workpiece WP in succession without flipping the workpiece WP or setting up an additional grinding wheel spindle 8. The rotating motor is moved along the Y axis through the slide 5 and along the Z axis through the slide 6. The positioning is accurate and controllable, and the installation error is small. It can realize precision grinding of multiple surfaces to be processed on large workpieces WP with high processing accuracy requirements such as machine tool guides.

[0049] (2) The grinding wheel 81 rotates from the +90 degree position to the -90 degree position following the grinding wheel spindle 8 to achieve a certain distance of Y-axis displacement, which can reduce the maximum stroke of the slide 5 along the Y-axis, thereby reducing the length of the gantry beam 4, which is beneficial to reducing the footprint of the gantry grinder 1000.

[0050] (3) The eccentric motor 842 drives the grinding wheel cover 83 to rotate in real time following the change of the surface to be processed of the workpiece WP, so that the opening 831 of the grinding wheel cover 83 always faces the processing surface of the workpiece WP, controls the range of debris and dust scattering, and protects the safety of on-site personnel. The grinding wheel cover 83 is indirectly driven by the eccentric motor 842, and the grinding wheel 81 is directly driven by the spindle motor 82. The two rotate independently, that is, the present invention allows the grinding wheel cover 83 to rotate following the change of the processing direction without affecting the processing effect.

[0051] (4) In this embodiment, the number of teeth of the driven gear 844 is greater than the number of teeth of the driving gear 843, so that the grinding wheel cover 83 can be decelerated relative to the eccentric motor 842 and rotate stably.

[0052] (5) The front surface of the slide 6 has a receiving space that is recessed backwards, and a bearing 61 is arranged in the receiving space. The rotating motor is installed on the rear side of the slide 6, and the first rotating shaft 7 passes through the bearing 61 to be installed and fixed with the grinding wheel spindle 8. The design is compact and is also conducive to providing high-strength support for the rotating motor.

[0053] (6) The slide 5 has the mounting portion 51 located on the upper side of the gantry beam 4 , which is beneficial for dispersing the load of the gantry beam 4 and preventing the load from being concentrated on the front side of the gantry beam 4 .

[0054] The above detailed description is only an explanation of the preferred embodiment of the present utility model, and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent technical changes made by using the description and illustrations of the present utility model are included in the patent scope of the present utility model.
