Traditional metal casting polishing is mostly done manually, which is not only inefficient but also makes it difficult to guarantee polishing quality. Furthermore, the dust generated during polishing poses a serious threat to workers' health.
[0003] With the continuous development of automation technology, automated metal casting polishing equipment has gradually emerged. However, most existing automated polishing equipment has some problems, such as poor polishing effect, incomplete dust removal, complex equipment structure, and high maintenance costs. In particular, the metal dust and metal shavings generated during the polishing process are often difficult to collect and handle effectively, which not only affects the working environment but may also cause wear and tear on the equipment, reducing its service life.

[0030] Reference Figures 1-6 As an embodiment of the present invention, an automated metal casting polishing device is provided, including a polishing mechanism 100 and a dust removal mechanism 200;
[0031] The polishing mechanism 100 includes a polishing wheel 101, which is arranged on one side of the metal casting 300 to be polished. The polishing wheel 101 is connected to a first motor 102. The metal casting 300 has a cylindrical structure and is arranged on a rotating seat 103. The rotating seat 103 is provided with an inner support circular clamp 104 that cooperates with the metal casting 300. The rotating seat 103 is connected to a second motor 105.
[0032] The dust removal mechanism 200 includes a dust removal brush plate 201. A brush plate slide 202 is connected to the bottom of the brush plate 201. A brush plate screw 203 is mechanically connected to the brush plate slide 202. The brush plate screw 203 is rotatably mounted within a brush plate slide rail 204. Synchronous pulleys 205 are arranged on both the brush plate screw 203 and the first motor 102. The two sets of synchronous pulleys 205 are mechanically connected by a synchronous belt 206. A dust collection box 207 is arranged at the bottom of the dust removal brush plate 201. A dust collection screen 208 is arranged at the top of the dust collection box 207. A dust collection hopper 209 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the dust collection box 207. A vacuum fan 210 is connected to the bottom of the dust collection hopper 209 via a pipe. The vacuum cleaner 210 is connected to a dust collection pool 211 via a pipe, and the air outlet of the vacuum cleaner 210 is connected to the top of the dust collection pool 211. The dust collection screen 208 is provided with multiple sets of dust collection mesh holes 214, which are arranged alternately on the left and right sides. The bottom of the dust removal brush plate 201 is provided with multiple rotating brushes 216, and the top of the rotating brushes 216 is connected to a rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the dust removal brush plate 201. The top of the rotating shaft is provided with a gear 217, and the gears 217 on the multiple rotating shafts mesh with each other for transmission. The outermost set of gears 217 meshes with and transmits transmission to a rack set 215, which is arranged inside the brush plate slide rail 204.
[0033] A fixed cleaning plate 212 is arranged on one side of the metal casting 300. The fixed cleaning plate 212 and the polishing wheel 101 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the metal casting 300. Cleaning bristles 213 are arranged on the fixed cleaning plate 212 and contact the surface of the metal casting 300. The fixed cleaning plate 212 has an arc-shaped groove adapted to the circumferential outer wall structure of the metal casting 300. The cleaning bristles 213 are arranged in layers along the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove to form contact at different angles, ensuring comprehensive cleaning of the surface of the metal casting 300.
[0034] In this embodiment: In actual use, the metal casting 300 to be polished is placed on the rotating seat 103 and fixed by the inner support circular clamp 104 (using existing mature technology for direct application). Driven by the first motor 102, the metal casting 300 starts to rotate. At the same time, the polishing wheel 101 polishes the surface of the metal casting 300 under the drive of the second motor 105.
[0035] During the polishing process, the dust removal mechanism 200 starts working; when the metal casting 300 is polished, larger debris falls onto the surface of the dust collection screen plate 208 or enters the dust collection box through the dust collection screen holes 214 under the action of gravity. Some of the dust adhering to the surface of the metal casting 300 is swept off by the cleaning brush bristles 213 fixed inside the cleaning plate 212 through contact with the surface of the metal casting 300, avoiding wear on the grinding wheel, and falls onto the surface of the dust collection screen plate 208.
[0036] The brush screw 203 is driven to rotate by the synchronous pulley 205 and the synchronous belt 206. The dust removal brush 201 moves automatically along the direction of the brush slide rail 204 under the drive of the brush screw 203. At the same time, the gear 217 rotates by contacting the rack group 218. Simultaneously, the rotating shaft drives multiple rotating brushes 216 to rotate synchronously, thereby cleaning the dust and metal debris generated after polishing the metal casting 300. The swept dust and metal debris fall into the dust collection box 207 through the dust collection mesh 214, and are transported to the dust settling water pool 211 for treatment through the dust collection hopper 209 and the dust suction fan 210. The air outlet of the dust suction fan 210 is connected to the top of the dust settling water pool 211 to ensure that the dust can be effectively treated and discharged.
[0037] It is worth noting that the entire device is controlled by a controller. Since the controller is a common device and belongs to existing mature technology, its electrical connection relationship and specific circuit structure will not be described in detail here.
[0038] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
