[0002] A surface grinder is a precision grinding device used to process flat surfaces and is widely used in various fields of industrial production.

[0003] The lateral feed mechanism (micro feed device) of the surface grinder is one of the key components and an important factor affecting processing efficiency and quality. It plays a very important role in achieving precision grinding, high-precision dimensional processing and online error compensation.

[0004] At present, the resolution of micro-feeding devices can reach 0.001mm.

[0005] In grinding, the transverse feed mechanism should meet the following requirements:

[0006] 1. Separate micro-feed from coarse feed to improve the accuracy, resolution and stability of micro-displacement.

[0007] 2. The moving parts must have low friction and high stability in order to achieve high repeatability.

[0008] 3. The transmission element must have high rigidity, that is, the tool clamping part must have high rigidity.

[0009] 4. Good workability and easy to manufacture.

[0010] 5. It should be able to realize automatic control of micro-feed and have good dynamic performance.

[0011] Too much lateral feed will lead to excessive grinding surface roughness, while too little feed will affect processing efficiency. Therefore, the design of the lateral feed mechanism should meet the requirements of its feed amount being 0.002mm to 0.02mm, and be able to switch freely between manual feed and automatic feed.

The manual feeding mechanism comprises a connecting shaft 3, a rotating shaft 7 and a handwheel assembly arranged on a base 2.

[0029] The base 2 (installed on the bed of the grinding machine) is a cylinder with a small front end and a large rear end. The interior of the base 2 is coaxially provided with a front shaft hole I2-1, a middle shaft hole II2-2 and a rear shaft hole III2-3. The connecting shaft 3 is installed in the shaft hole I2-1 through a bearing assembly I4 (two bearings at the front and rear ends). The front end of the connecting shaft 3 extends out of the base 2 and is coaxially connected to the rear end of the feed shaft 1 (ball screw, the nut seat screwed on the ball screw is connected to the carriage) through a coupling sleeve 9; the shaft hole III 2-3 is fitted with a bearing sleeve 5 in a sliding manner. The rotating shaft 7 is mounted in the bearing sleeve 5 through a bearing assembly II 6 (three bearings at the front, middle and rear). The front end of the rotating shaft 7 and the rear end of the connecting shaft 3 are both in the shaft hole II 2-2 and are connected and separated by a clutch 8. The bearing sleeve 5 is provided with two front and rear clamping holes. The alignment clamping holes are provided with a ball pin 19 with downward elastic return inside the base 2. The rear end of the rotating shaft 7 extends out of the base 2. The handwheel assembly is mounted on the rear end of the rotating shaft 7. Figure 1 shown.

[0030] The handwheel assembly includes a large handwheel 10 with a coarse feed scale and a small handwheel 18 with a fine feed scale. The large handwheel 10 is coaxially fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 7. A double gear 13 eccentric to the axial direction is installed inside the wheel body of the large handwheel 10 through a bearing assembly IV 12 (a needle bearing). The front end small diameter gear teeth of the double gear 13 (located outside the front end of the wheel body) mesh with the large diameter internal gear 11. The internal gear 11 is coaxially fixedly mounted on the rear end surface of the base 2. The double gear 13 3, the rear end large diameter gear teeth are located at the rear end of the wheel body; the rear end of the large hand wheel 10 is coaxially mounted with a sealing plate 17 (located on the rear side of the rear end gear teeth of the duplex gear 13), the sealing plate 17 is internally mounted with an external gear 14 via a bearing assembly III 16 (a needle bearing), the front end small diameter gear teeth of the external gear 14 (located outside the front end of the sealing plate 17) are meshed with the rear end gear teeth of the duplex gear 13, the rear end of the external gear 14 extends out of the sealing plate 17, and the small hand wheel 18 is fixedly mounted on the rear end of the external gear 14, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 shown.

[0031] A buffer mechanism is provided between the large hand wheel 10 and the base 2. The buffer mechanism includes elastic pins 20 extending from the front end surface of the large hand wheel 10 and uniformly distributed around the circumference. A baffle 15 is provided on the rear end surface of the base 2 corresponding to the elastic pins 20. Figure 1 shown.

[0032] The utility model has three feeding modes:

[0033] 1. Automatic feeding mode: Manually pull the handwheel assembly backward into place (the elastic ball pin 19 is locked in the front hole), and the large handwheel 10 pulls the rotating shaft 7 backward to separate the rotating shaft 7 from the connecting shaft 3 (the front and rear staggered teeth of the clutch 8 are separated). At the same time, the front end teeth of the double gear 13 are separated from the internal gear 11. Driven by the power mechanism, the feed shaft 1 rotates to realize the automatic horizontal feeding of the carriage.

[0034] 2. Manual coarse feed mode: manually push the handwheel assembly forward into position (the elastic ball pin 19 is stuck in the rear hole, and the elastic pin 20 hits the baffle 15 to achieve buffering), and the large handwheel 10 pushes the rotating shaft 7 forward so that the rotating shaft 7 is combined with the connecting shaft 3 (the front and rear staggered teeth of the clutch 8 are engaged). At the same time, the front end teeth of the double gear 13 are combined with the internal gear 11. The large handwheel 10 is shaken by handle I, and the large handwheel 10 drives the feed shaft 1 to rotate through the rotating shaft 7, clutch 8, connecting shaft 3, and coupling sleeve 9, thereby realizing manual rapid horizontal feeding of the carriage.

[0035] 3. Manual micro-feed mode: manually push the handwheel assembly forward into position (the elastic ball pin 19 is stuck in the rear hole, and the elastic pin 20 hits the baffle 15 to achieve buffering), and the large handwheel 10 pushes the rotating shaft 7 so that the rotating shaft 7 is combined with the connecting shaft 3 (the front and rear staggered teeth of the clutch 8 are engaged). At the same time, the front end teeth of the duplex gear 13 are combined with the internal gear 11. The small handwheel 18 is shaken by handle II. The small handwheel 18 drives the feed shaft 1 to rotate through the external gear 14, duplex gear 13, internal gear 11, large handwheel 10, rotating shaft 7, clutch 8, connecting shaft 3, and coupling sleeve 9, thereby realizing the lateral manual slow feeding of the carriage. The minimum scale value of the micro-feed dial on the small handwheel 18 is 0.002 mm.

[0036] The utility model has reasonable structure, high precision, accurate feeding, good stability and strong carrying capacity. It adopts gear speed change mechanism to fine-tune feeding and perform micro-feed adjustment, which can achieve ц-level (micron-level) feeding; manual feeding and automatic feeding can be achieved by engaging or disengaging the clutch, which is convenient for rapid switching of different modes, has high working efficiency and good workpiece processing accuracy.
