[0028] Embodiment:

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1-5 A dressing device for a diamond grinding wheel according to this embodiment includes a grinding machine body 11. A grinding wheel shaft 12 is installed on the grinding machine body 11. A grinding wheel A is fixedly connected to the grinding wheel shaft 12.

The microwave power supply 21 is connected to a microwave generator 22 through a wire. The microwave generator 22 is connected to a coaxial line 23. The microwave power supply 21 provides electrical energy and converts it into microwave energy. The microwave power supply 21 transmits the electrical energy to the microwave generator 22 through a wire. The microwave generator 22 converts the electrical energy into microwave energy. The microwave energy generated by the microwave generator 22 is transmitted to the grinding wheel A through the coaxial line 23. The coaxial line 23 ensures the effective transmission of the microwave energy and reduces the energy loss. The microwave energy acts on the surface of the grinding wheel A, locally heating and softening the metal bond, thereby realizing the dressing of the surface of the grinding wheel A.

[0030] A lower fixing frame 32 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the bottom plate 8 by bolts. An upper fixing frame 31 is installed on the lower fixing frame 32. The upper fixing frame 31 can slide up and down. The lower fixing frame 32 is connected to the bottom plate 8 by a bolt connection method. The upper fixing frame 31 is sleeved on the lower fixing frame 32. The upper fixing frame 31 is fixed on the lower fixing frame 32 through a threaded fastening mechanism. When not fixed, the upper fixing frame 31 can also slide up and down relative to the lower fixing frame 32.

[0031] Hollow circular bushings 311 are fixedly installed at the centers of the four faces of the upper fixing frame 31 by bolts.

[0032] Inside the hollow circular bushing 311, there is a circular sliding rod 312. The surface of the circular sliding rod 312 is fixedly installed with an arcuate plate 313 through bolts. The surface of the arcuate plate 313 is slidably connected with an L-shaped sliding plate 314. Inside the hollow circular bushing 311, the circular sliding rod 312 is installed, and they can slide relatively back and forth and are locked by a threaded locking mechanism. The arcuate plate 313 is fixed to the circular sliding rod 312 by bolt connection. The L-shaped sliding plate 314 can be installed in the arcuate plate 313, and the L-shaped sliding plate 314 can slide relatively back and forth with respect to the arcuate plate 313. The arcuate plate 313 and the L-shaped sliding plate 314 are combined in pairs to form a square frame.

[0033] The upper surface of the bottom plate 8 is fixedly connected with a moving platform 5. The surface of the moving platform 5 is fixedly connected with a rotating platform 51. The rotating platform 51 is installed on the surface of the Z-axis 52. The surface of the rotating platform 51 is fixedly connected with a rotating motor 512. The drive shaft of the rotating motor 512 is fixedly connected with a needle tip fixing plate 511. The needle tip fixing plate 511 is installed on the drive shaft of the rotating motor 512 in the rotating platform 51. The moving platform 5 is fixed to the bottom plate 8, and the moving platform 5 can move in three directions of X, Y, and Z. The rotating platform 51 is installed on the Z-axis 52. The rotating motor 512 in the rotating platform 51 rotates to drive the needle tip fixing plate 511 to rotate.

[0034] The needle tip fixing plate 511 is fixedly installed with a metal mesh fixing plate 513 through bolts. The surface of the grinding machine body 11 is fixedly connected with a coaxial line fixer 514. The coaxial line 23 is fixedly connected to the surface of the needle tip fixing plate 511 through the coaxial line fixer 514. The coaxial line 23 is fixed to the needle tip fixing plate 511 in the rotating platform 51 of the moving platform 5 and is fixed by bolt tightening through the coaxial line fixer 514.

[0035] The outer surface of the grinding wheel cover 13 is provided with a flexible metal mesh 6. Below the grinding wheel A, there is a metal tip 7. The metal tip 7 is fixedly connected to the surface of the coaxial line 23. The flexible metal mesh 6 is fixed by a tip fixing plate 511 and a metal mesh fixing plate 513. The tip fixing plate 511 and the metal mesh fixing plate 513 are connected by bolts. The bolts pass through the flexible metal mesh 6 to ensure its firm fixation. The metal tip 7 is arranged below the grinding wheel A and is connected to the microwave generator 22 through the coaxial line 23. The function of the metal tip 7 is to serve as a focusing point of microwave energy to dress the grinding wheel A. The flexible metal mesh 6 completely wraps the protruding part of the grinding wheel cover 13, forming a closed area. This closed area contains the metal tip 7, the grinding wheel A, and the grinding wheel shaft 12. The microwave energy generated by the microwave generator 22 is transmitted to the metal tip 7 through the coaxial line 23. Narrow-gap discharge is formed between the metal tip 7 and the surface of the grinding wheel A, causing the metal bond to locally melt and vaporize, removing the metal bond. At the same time, the microwave energy has no effect on the diamond abrasive grains, making the diamond abrasive grains protrude, thereby realizing the dressing of the surface of the grinding wheel A. The closed area constructed by the flexible metal mesh 6 and the grinding wheel cover 13 ensures that the microwave energy will not leak into the external environment, guaranteeing the safety of the operator and the normal operation of the equipment.

[0036] In the embodiment of the present application, the implementation principle of a dressing device for a diamond grinding wheel is as follows: In order to achieve the complete dressing of a metal-bonded diamond grinding wheel with different heights, different sizes, different angles of the tip, and the grinding wheel, a grinding machine body 11 and a grinding wheel shaft 12 provided on the base are provided. A grinding wheel A is installed on the grinding wheel shaft 12, and the grinding wheel shaft 12 drives the grinding wheel A to rotate. A metal tip 7 is installed below the grinding wheel A. The metal tip 7 is placed in a coaxial line 23, and the coaxial line 23 is fixed on a tip fixing plate 511 in a rotating platform 51 in a moving platform 5 and fixed by a coaxial line fixer 514 in a bolt-tightening manner. The tip fixing plate 511 is installed on the drive shaft of a rotating motor 512 in the rotating platform 51. The moving platform 5 is fixed on a bottom plate 8, and the moving platform 5 can move in three directions of X, Y, and Z. The rotating platform 51 is installed on a Z-axis 52. The rotating motor 512 in the rotating platform 51 rotates, driving the tip fixing plate 511 to rotate. The tip fixing plate 511 drives the metal tip 7 to rotate, realizing the rotation movement to change the angle of the metal tip 7. The above mechanism drives the metal tip 7 to move in four directions of X, Y, Z, and R. When the moving platform 5 moves in the tangential direction of the grinding wheel A, the position of the metal tip 7 relative to the grinding wheel A can be adjusted. When the moving platform 5 moves in the axial direction, the metal tip 7 can move from the front end of the axis of the grinding wheel A to the rear end of the axis. When the rotating platform 51 in the moving platform 5 makes a rotating movement, the installation angle of the metal tip 7 can be changed, realizing the dressing of the metal-bonded diamond grinding wheel with different heights, different sizes, and different angles of the metal tip 7. In order to prevent the unstable closure of the flexible metal net 6 from falling off, resulting in microwave leakage and causing safety accidents, it is necessary to fasten the flexible metal net 6. The fastening of the flexible metal net 6 is mainly through an upper fixing frame 31 and a lower fixing frame 32. The lower fixing frame 32 is connected to the bottom plate 8 by a bolt connection method. The upper fixing frame 31 is sleeved on the lower fixing frame 32, and the upper fixing frame 31 is fixed on the lower fixing frame 32 by a thread fastening mechanism. When not fixed, the upper fixing frame 31 can also slide up and down relative to the lower fixing frame 32. Four hollow circular bushings 311 are installed at the centers of the four faces of the upper fixing frame 31 by a bolt connection method. A circular sliding rod 312 is installed inside the hollow circular bushing 311, and they can slide relatively back and forth and are locked by a thread locking mechanism. An arcuate plate 313 is fixed on the circular sliding rod 312 by a bolt connection method. An L-shaped sliding plate 314 can be installed in the arcuate plate 313, and the L-shaped sliding plate 314 can slide relatively back and forth relative to the arcuate plate 313. The arcuate plate 313 and the L-shaped sliding plate 314 are combined in pairs to form a square frame. When the square frame completely fits the flexible metal net 6, the thread locking mechanism is locked, so that the flexible metal net 6 tightly fits around the grinding wheel cover 13, and the L-shaped sliding plate 314 completely fixes the flexible metal net 6, achieving the effect of fixing the flexible metal net 6 and preventing microwave leakage.

[0037] The above embodiments are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and the scope of protection of the present utility model cannot be limited thereby. Any non-substantive changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on the present utility model fall within the scope of protection required by the present utility model.
