Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of polishing tools, in particular to a rubber bearing polishing tool. Background Art
[0002] Rubber bearings are crucial components in water pump shafting, and their manufacturing quality is crucial for ensuring the smooth operation of the pump. High requirements are placed on the inner bore precision and surface quality of rubber bearings, making it difficult to achieve these design requirements through turning alone. A turning-then-polishing process is required to achieve a surface roughness of Ra1.6.
[0003] In the existing technology, rubber bearing manufacturers often use a lathe-before-grinding process. A special motor-driven grinding head is installed on the center carriage of the lathe to grind the inner hole of the rubber bearing, so that the inner hole size accuracy and surface quality meet the specified requirements. Although the inner hole size and surface quality of the rubber bearing can meet the design requirements by installing a special motor-driven grinding head on the center carriage of the lathe, there are disadvantages such as high precision requirements for the special grinding head and high investment costs. Due to the high elasticity and poor thermal conductivity of rubber, grinding chips can easily clog the grinding wheel during grinding, causing the grinding wheel to lose its grinding ability, resulting in defects such as uneven surface and poor surface quality of the workpiece. At the same time, due to the high rotation speed of the grinding wheel head, if the grinding wheel breaks, it can easily cause injury, posing a safety risk.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to develop new rubber bearing polishing tools in a targeted manner to reduce costs and improve safety. Utility Model Content

[0017] The technical solution of the present utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0018] As shown in the figure, the present invention's rubber bearing polishing tool comprises a tool body 1, a clamping unit 2, and an abrasive belt 3. The tool body 1 is composed of a cutter body 11 and a pad 12. The cutter body 11 is T-shaped, with a set of threaded holes on one side for connection to the pad 12 and a set of threaded holes on the top for mounting a pressure plate 21. The other end has a square cross-section for mounting in a lathe toolholder. The pad 12 has a semicircular cross-section. The abrasive belt 3 is placed on the pad 12, making linear contact with the inner surface of the rubber bearing to reduce grinding forces. The pad 12 is provided with a set of stepped holes, which are connected to a corresponding set of threaded holes on the side of the cutter body 11 using hexagon socket head screws 13. The pad 12 is made of a non-metallic material such as hard wood or nylon, providing shock absorption. The countersunk holes and screw recesses on the arc surface of the pad 12 are filled and smoothed with epoxy resin material 14 to ensure smooth contact between the abrasive belt and the rubber bearing during grinding.
[0019] The pressing unit 2 includes a pressing plate 21 and screws 22. The pressing plate 21 is provided with a group of connecting holes corresponding to the cutter body 11, which is used to fasten the sanding belt 3 to the cutter body 11 through the pressing plate 21 and the screws 22. By loosening the screws 22, the sanding belt 3 can be quickly replaced.
[0020] The sanding belt 3 uses brown corundum abrasive, 60 mesh or 80 mesh is selected for coarse grinding, and 180 mesh or 240 mesh is selected for fine grinding. In the specific implementation process, the sanding belt parameters can be adjusted to other required values as needed.
[0021] During use, the lathe chuck clamps the rubber bearing housing, driving the rubber bearing to rotate as the main motion. The turning tool row is equipped with a polishing tool for feed motion. The rough and fine polishing process is performed on the turned inner hole of the rubber bearing. A brown corundum abrasive belt is selected, with 60 or 80 mesh for rough grinding and 180 or 240 mesh for fine grinding. The appropriate cutting amount is selected during polishing to achieve a surface roughness of Ra1.0 to 1.6 on the rubber bearing. This utility model can polish the inner and outer circles and planes of metal workpieces to reduce the surface roughness value. The polishing process is similar to turning the inner hole. The workpiece rotates as the main motion and the tool performs the feed motion. The operation is simple, safe and reliable.
