Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a clutch plate grinding machine. Background Art

[0002] Clutch plate grinding machines are essential processing equipment in the automotive repair and manufacturing industries, primarily used to precisely polish the surface of clutch plates to ensure smoothness and friction performance. Existing clutch plate grinding machines primarily utilize belt grinding, where the high-speed operation of the belt grinder grinds the surface of the clutch plate.

[0003] The typical operating process of a clutch plate grinding machine is as follows: the operator first starts the machine, running the abrasive belt at high speed between the driving and driven pulleys. The operator then carefully presses the clutch plate against the abrasive belt, adjusting the applied pressure and contact angle to achieve a smoother surface. Finally, the operator visually inspects and feels the surface to determine if the grinding is satisfactory. This method is common for small-scale repairs.

[0004] However, existing clutch plate grinding machines present significant safety risks. The primary issue is that the operator must directly hold the workpiece in contact with the high-speed abrasive belt, a method that can easily lead to workplace accidents. Improper operation can result in scratches on the operator's hands.

[0005] At the same time, manual operation is also inefficient. Operators must maintain high concentration for extended periods of time, manually controlling the pressure and angle of the workpiece. This not only consumes considerable physical effort but also easily compromises machining quality due to fatigue. This manual operation is particularly time-consuming and labor-intensive during batch processing.

[0006] Furthermore, the instability of manual operation can also affect machining accuracy. Since it's difficult to maintain constant pressure and angle, it can easily lead to uneven grinding of the workpiece surface, affecting the performance of the clutch plate. Differences in operator skill levels can also lead to inconsistent machining quality.

[0007] Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop a safe, reliable and easy-to-operate automatic clutch plate grinding machine, which can solve the safety hazards in manual operation, improve processing efficiency and ensure the stability of processing quality. Utility Model Content

[0008] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a clutch plate grinding machine, which can reduce safety hazards and improve processing efficiency.

[0009] The above technical objectives of the present invention are achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0010] A clutch plate grinding machine comprises: a frame; a sanding belt device arranged on the frame, the sanding belt device comprising a motor, multiple transmission wheels and a sanding belt; a conveyor belt arranged on the frame; multiple baffles arranged in sequence on the conveyor belt, the height of the baffles being less than the height of the clutch plate; a bevel gear set connected to one end of the conveyor belt; a drive shaft connected to the bevel gear set, with bearings connected between both ends of the drive shaft and the frame; a driving wheel fixedly sleeved on the middle part of the driving shaft; a driven wheel meshing with the driving wheel, the diameter of the driving wheel being larger than the diameter of the driven wheel; a rotating shaft connected to the middle part of the driven wheel, and the rotating shaft being connected to the output shaft of the motor.

[0011] The utility model is further configured as follows: the space between the baffles is used for placing the clutch plate.

[0012] The utility model is further configured as follows: the sanding belt device is used for grinding the upper surface of the clutch plate.

[0013] The utility model is further configured such that the diameter difference between the driving wheel and the driven wheel forms a speed change effect.

[0014] The utility model is further configured such that: the driven wheel drives the driving wheel to rotate at a variable speed.

[0015] The utility model is further configured such that: the driving wheel drives the conveyor belt to operate through the bevel gear set.

[0016] The utility model is further configured such that the baffle can prevent the clutch plate from being retained under the friction force of the sand belt.

[0017] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] The present application realizes the automation of the clutch plate grinding process by arranging a combination structure of a conveyor belt and a sanding belt device on a frame. The baffles on the conveyor belt are arranged at intervals to accommodate the clutch plates in sequence, and because the height of the baffles is less than the height of the clutch plates, the upper surface of the clutch plates is exposed for easy grinding. Through the transmission mechanism of the bevel gear set, drive shaft, active wheel and driven wheel, and the design that the diameter of the active wheel is larger than the diameter of the driven wheel, the conveyor belt is driven to run at high speed while the motor drives the sanding belt to run, and the slow movement of the conveyor belt is achieved, so that the clutch plate can be fully ground by the high-speed running sanding belt during low-speed movement, and the presence of the baffle prevents the clutch plate from being retained due to the friction of the sanding belt. The overall solution avoids the safety hazards of traditional manual hand-held grinding methods, while ensuring the stability and uniformity of the processing and improving the processing efficiency.

For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0025] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, a clutch plate grinding machine includes a frame 1. A sanding belt device 2 is mounted on the frame 1. The sanding belt device 2 is connected to a sanding belt 5 via a motor 3, multiple drive wheels 4, and a sanding belt 5. This straightens the sanding belt 5, allowing the high-speed sanding belt 5 to grind the clutch plate that passes beneath it. This is prior art and will not be further described here.

[0027] The core technical solutions of this application are as follows:

[0028] To achieve the technical goal of automatically feeding the clutch plate for grinding, the present application provides a conveyor belt 6 on the frame 1. Baffles 7 are arranged in sequence on the conveyor belt 6. The clutch plate can be placed between the baffles 7. The height of the baffles 7 is less than the height of the clutch plate.

[0029] When the conveyor belt 6 is working, it can drive the conveyor belt 6 to run, thereby moving the clutch plate. When it moves to contact the sand belt device 2 for grinding, due to the setting of the baffle 7, the clutch plate will not be trapped under the friction with the sand belt 5, but will move with the operation of the conveyor belt 6, so that the sand belt 5 can fully grind the upper surface of the clutch plate.

[0030] One end of the conveyor belt 6 is connected to a bevel gear set 8. This bevel gear set 8 is connected to a drive shaft 9. Both ends of the drive shaft 9 are connected to the frame 1 via bearings. A driving pulley 10 is fixedly mounted in the middle of the drive shaft 9. The driving pulley 10 engages with a driven pulley 11. The diameter of the driving pulley 10 is larger than that of the driven pulley 11. A rotating shaft 12 is connected to the middle of the driven pulley 11. The rotating shaft 12 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 3. When the motor 3 is operating, it can drive the abrasive belt 5 to rotate at high speed, achieving a polishing effect. Furthermore, when the motor 3 rotates at high speed, the difference in diameter between the driven pulley 11 and the driving pulley 10 creates a speed change effect, allowing the high-speed driven pulley 11 to drive the driving pulley 10 to rotate at a slower speed. When the driving pulley 10 rotates, it cooperates with the bevel gear set 8 to drive the conveyor belt 6. This ensures that while the clutch plate moves at a low speed along with the conveyor belt 6, the abrasive belt 5 maintains high-speed operation, thereby automatically polishing the clutch plate.

[0031] The present application realizes the automation of the clutch plate grinding process by arranging a combination structure of a conveyor belt 6 and a sanding belt device 2 on a frame 1. The baffles 7 on the conveyor belt 6 are arranged at intervals to accommodate the clutch plates in sequence, and because the height of the baffles 7 is designed to be less than the height of the clutch plates, the upper surface of the clutch plates is exposed for easy grinding. Through the transmission mechanism of the bevel gear set 8, the drive shaft 9, the active wheel 10 and the driven wheel 11, and the design that the diameter of the active wheel 10 is larger than the diameter of the driven wheel 11, while the motor 3 drives the sanding belt 5 to run at high speed, the conveyor belt 6 is moved slowly, so that the clutch plate can be fully ground by the high-speed running sanding belt 5 during low-speed movement, and the presence of the baffles 7 prevents the clutch plate from being retained due to the friction of the sanding belt 5. The overall solution avoids the safety hazards of traditional manual hand-held grinding methods, while ensuring the stability and uniformity of the processing and improving the processing efficiency.

[0032] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make non-creative modifications to the present embodiment as needed. However, as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by patent law.
