[0024] The clamping and rotating module 2 includes a clamping component and a rotating component. Figure 1As shown, the clamping assembly includes a three-jaw chuck and a tailstock 3 installed inside the polishing box. The tailstock 3 is slidably set on the first slide rail 9 on the right side of the three-jaw chuck. The three-jaw chuck is used to clamp the large end of the core rod 8. A pointed cone portion is provided on the left side of the tailstock 3 for inserting into the round hole of the small end of the core rod 8. The three-jaw chuck cooperates with the tailstock 3 to clamp the core rods 8 of different lengths.
[0025] The controlled end of the three-jaw chuck is connected to the output end of the PLC controller, and the controlled end of the rotating component is also connected to the output end of the PLC controller.
[0026] The rotating assembly is a conventionally arranged rotating drive mechanism, such as a motor drive, a gear drive, etc., which can drive the three-jaw chuck to clamp the core rod and rotate.
[0027] The polishing module 4 includes a polishing machine, a forward and backward moving component for driving the polishing machine to move forward and backward, and a left and right moving component for driving the polishing machine to move left and right.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the left-right moving component includes a slide plate 13 slidably set on the second slide rail 10 in the polishing box 1, and the top surface of the slide plate 13 is provided with a first rack horizontally set along the left and right directions. The first rack is meshed with the first gear in the left and right gear box plates 14 at the top of the slide plate 13 for transmission, and the first gear is driven by the first motor inside the left and right gear box plates 14, and the controlled end of the first motor is connected to the output end of the PLC controller.
[0029] The forward and backward moving component includes a second rack arranged on the top of the left and right gear box plates 14, the second rack is horizontally arranged in the forward and backward direction, the second rack is meshed with the second gear in the front and rear gear box plates 15 above the left and right gear box plates 14, and a second motor that drives the second gear to rotate is installed inside the front and rear gear box plates 15, and the controlled end of the second motor is connected to the output end of the PLC controller.
[0030] The polishing machine includes a driving wheel 18, a first driven wheel 19, a second driven wheel 20, a third driven wheel 21, and a grinding sandpaper 22 which is sleeved on the outer sides of the driving wheel 18, the first driven wheel 19, the second driven wheel 20, and the third driven wheel 21 to form a quadrilateral.
[0031] The driving wheel 18 is installed on the top of the front and rear gear box plates 15 through the driving wheel mounting frame 17 and is connected to the rotating motor, and the controlled end of the rotating motor is connected to the output end of the PLC controller.
[0032] The first driven wheel 19 is vertically slidably mounted on the front end of the support plate 16 and elastically connected to the support plate 16 . The gear box plates 15 before and after the support plate 16 are vertically arranged and are respectively mounted on the rear end of the support plate 16 with the second driven wheel 20 and the third driven wheel 21 .
[0033] The first driven wheel 19 can move up and down in the vertical direction to control the tightness of the sandpaper according to the change of the core rod size, so as to ensure that the tension of the sandpaper is uniform everywhere.
[0034] A first limit switch 11 for detecting the position of the polishing machine is arranged on the tailstock 3, and an output end of the first limit switch 11 is connected to an input end of the PLC controller.
[0035] A second limit switch 12 for detecting the position of the polishing machine is also provided on the rear side of the three-jaw chuck, and the output end of the second limit switch 12 is connected to the input end of the PLC controller.
[0036] The cooperation of the first limit switch 11 and the second limit switch 12 can enable the polishing machine to move back and forth during the polishing process to complete the polishing of the core rod.
[0037] The safety protection module 5 includes a safety door installed on the polishing box. A distance sensor is arranged inside the safety door. The output end of the distance sensor is connected to the input end of the PLC controller.
[0038] When the safety door is opened, the distance sensor sends a signal to the PLC controller, and the PLC controller sends a signal to control the polishing module 4 to stop the action, ensuring that the polishing module is carried out in a closed environment to avoid dust overflow after polishing.
[0039] The dust removal module 7 includes a vacuum cleaner, a controlled end of the vacuum cleaner is connected to the output end of the PLC controller, and the vacuum cleaner is connected to the polishing box through a dust removal pipeline, so that the generated dust can be sucked out while polishing.
[0040] During polishing, first, move the tailstock 3 to a suitable position according to the length of the core rod 8, and insert the round hole at the small end of the core rod 8 into the pointed cone on the tailstock 3. Then, clamp the threaded part at the large end of the core rod 8 with a three-jaw chuck, and adjust the self-locking device in the tailstock to fix the tailstock.
[0041] Next, close the safety door, start the polishing machine, and drive the polishing machine to move toward the mandrel through the forward and backward moving assembly so that the sandpaper 22 contacts the surface of the large end of the mandrel, and then drive the polishing machine from the large end of the mandrel to the small end through the left and right moving assembly for grinding and polishing.
[0042] During the movement, when the size of the core rod changes, the pressure between the core rod and the sandpaper also changes. Since the first driven wheel 19 is elastically connected to the support plate 16, the first driven wheel 19 can move up and down for adjustment, thereby ensuring that the tension between the sandpaper can be kept uniform and ensuring uniform sanding force.
[0043] When the polishing machine moves to the small end of the mandrel, the first proximity switch 11 will send a signal to control the polishing machine to move in the opposite direction for polishing again, moving from the small end to the large end of the mandrel; when the polishing machine moves to the large end of the mandrel again, the second limit switch 12 will send a signal to control the polishing machine to move in the opposite direction again, moving from the large end to the small end of the mandrel, and repeat this process for multiple times. After polishing is completed, press the polishing stop button to stop the action.
[0044] During the polishing process, the dust removal module 7 will promptly absorb the dust generated during the polishing process to prevent dust from overflowing.
[0045] The utility model provides an automatic polishing device for a long core rod. The efficiency of core rod polishing is improved by arranging a clamping and rotating module, a polishing module and a control module, and the automatic operation of polishing is realized. The dust removal module is arranged to absorb dust in the polishing process in time to avoid impact on the environment. The safety protection module is arranged to ensure that the polishing process is always carried out in a closed environment, which will not cause harm to the human body and improve the safety of operation. In addition, the tension of the sandpaper is adjusted in time during the polishing process to ensure that the force on each part of the core rod is uniform during polishing, thereby improving the polishing quality and the polishing speed.
