[0034] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings to further illustrate the present invention.
[0035] First, combine Figures 1-3 The invention provides a split elbow tool bar for internal thread grinding according to an embodiment of the invention, which is used for grinding the internal threads of nuts and has a wide range of application scenarios.
[0036] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the split elbow tool bar for internal thread grinding according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a tool bar module 1, an elbow module 2, a transmission flexible shaft 3 and a grinding module 4.
[0037] Specifically, if Figures 1-3As shown, in this embodiment, the two ends of the elbow module 2 are respectively connected to one end of the tool rod module 1 and the grinding module 4; the transmission flexible shaft 3 passes through the tool rod module 1, the elbow module 2 and the grinding module 4 in sequence; the grinding module 4 is sleeved on the transmission flexible shaft 3; the other end of the tool rod module 1 is connected to the external power system, and the power system drives the transmission flexible shaft 3 to rotate, thereby driving the grinding module 4 to rotate to grind the internal thread of the nut 5. In this embodiment, unlike the previous method of setting the tool rod module 1 and the elbow module 2 as one body, the elbow module 2 and the tool rod module 1 are set separately. When a module fails or wears out, the module can be replaced alone without replacing the entire tool rod, thereby reducing maintenance costs; by replacing the elbow module 2, it can adapt to the grinding needs of internal threads of different specifications and shapes, and is more flexible to use; the tool rod with a split design can better ensure the overall rigidity, thereby providing higher stability and reliability during high-speed grinding; the split design reduces the force on a single part and reduces the possibility of wear, thereby extending the service life of the tooling; the split design can accurately control the processing position and size of the internal thread of the nut 5, thereby improving processing accuracy and consistency; the split setting can disperse vibration and improve the smoothness and dimensional accuracy of the processed surface.
[0038] Further, if Figures 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the tool bar module 1 includes: a tool bar body 11, a first mounting hole 12, a first bearing 13 and a bearing cover 14;
[0039] One end of the shank body 11 is connected to the elbow module 2, and the shank body 11 provides installation space for the first installation hole 12, the transmission flexible shaft 3 and the elbow module 2;
[0040] The first mounting hole 12 is provided in the cutter bar body 11 and penetrates along the length direction of the cutter bar body 11. The first mounting hole 12 is used to mount the transmission flexible shaft 3, providing a stable mounting path for the transmission flexible shaft 3.
[0041] The first bearing 13 is provided at the other end of the cutter bar body 11 and is sleeved on the transmission flexible shaft 3 to support and lubricate the transmission flexible shaft 3;
[0042] The bearing cover 14 is fixed to the other end of the arbor body 11 and is pressed and fixed on the first bearing 13 to enhance the fixation of the bearing, prevent the bearing from loosening or falling off during rotation, and protect the first bearing 13.

[0045] The inclined groove 23 is provided at the other end of the internal grinding elbow 21. The inclined groove 23 is used to install the grinding module 4. The inclined setting of the inclined groove 23 enables the grinding module 4 to be installed on the internal grinding elbow 21 at a certain angle, thereby adapting to the grinding requirements of different positions and angles. For example, it adapts to the helix angle of the internal thread so that the movement direction of the transmission flexible shaft 3 and the grinding wheel in the grinding module 4 is consistent with the direction represented by the helix angle of the internal thread, that is, the movement trajectory matches the helix line of the internal thread to avoid interference and collision.
[0046] The second mounting hole 22 is provided in the inner grinding elbow 21. The two ends of the second mounting hole 22 are respectively connected to the inclined groove 23 and the first mounting hole 12.

[0047] The second bearing 24 is provided at one end of the inner grinding elbow 21 and sleeved on the transmission flexible shaft 3 to support and lubricate the transmission flexible shaft 3 .
[0048] Further, if Figures 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the internal grinding elbow 21 is fixedly connected to the tool bar module 1 by screws 25, and the connection is stable, easy to disassemble and assemble, highly adaptable, and easy to maintain.
[0049] Further, if Figures 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the elbow module 2 further includes: a pair of sealed bearings 26, a bearing positioning sleeve 27 and a pressing screw 28;
[0050] The bearing positioning sleeve 27 is arranged in the inclined groove 23 to realize the positioning and installation of a pair of sealed bearings 26;
[0051] A pair of sealed bearings 26 are disposed adjacent to each other and are mounted in the chute 23 via bearing locating sleeves 27 . The sealed bearings 26 support and seal the grinding module 4 .
[0052] The pressing screws 28 are fixed on the elbow module 2 and press and fix a pair of sealed bearings 26. Since the top surface of the sealed bearings 26 is flush with the inner grinding elbow 21, the pressing screws 28 can prevent the sealed bearings 26 from escaping from the inclined slot 23 during rotation.
[0053] Further, if Figures 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the grinding module 4 includes: a mounting assembly and a grinding wheel 41; the grinding wheel 41 is fixed to the mounting assembly, and the grinding wheel 41 grinds the internal thread of the nut 5; the mounting assembly is installed on the elbow module 2 and sleeved on the transmission flexible shaft 3, and the mounting assembly is used to install the grinding wheel 41. The mounting assembly includes: a grinding wheel fixing shaft 42 and a locking nut 43;
[0054] The grinding wheel fixing shaft 42 is provided on the elbow module 2 and sleeved on the transmission flexible shaft 3. The grinding wheel fixing shaft 42 is installed and fixed with the grinding wheel 41 to ensure the stability of the grinding wheel 41 during the grinding process. The grinding wheel fixing shaft 42 is passed through a pair of sealed bearings 26. A locking nut 43 is installed on the top of the grinding wheel fixing shaft 42, and a locking nut 44 is screwed on the bottom. The locking nut 44 supports and positions the pair of sealed bearings 26.
[0055] The locking nut 43 is fixed on the transmission flexible shaft 3 and the grinding wheel fixing shaft 42, and is connected to the grinding wheel 41. The locking nut 43 locks and fixes the grinding wheel 41 on the grinding wheel fixing shaft 42, which can ensure that the grinding wheel 41 will not loosen or fall off during high-speed rotation and grinding, further improving the stability of the grinding wheel 41. The locking nut 44 is connected to the transmission flexible shaft 3 by spot welding or glue dripping.
[0056] When in use, the entire elbow cutter bar is fixed to the external internal thread machine by screws 25. The clamp on the internal thread machine holds the input end of the transmission flexible shaft 3. The main shaft in the internal thread machine rotates, driving the transmission flexible shaft 3 to rotate. The transmission flexible shaft 3 then drives the grinding wheel 41 to rotate through the grinding wheel fixing shaft 42, thereby realizing the grinding process of the internal thread of the nut 5.
