[0022] Referring to Figs. 1 to 3 The novel automatic grinding equipment provided by the embodiment comprises a machine table 1, a workpiece spindle part 2, a grinding spindle part 3 and a movement part 4. The workpiece spindle part 2 comprises a workpiece spindle assembly 21 and a workpiece clamping assembly 22. The grinding spindle part 3 comprises a grinding spindle 31, a grinding head device 32 and a measuring head device 33 (the grinding head device 32 and the measuring head device 33 are replaced on the grinding spindle 31 in an automatic or manual manner). The movement part 4 comprises an X-axis moving device 41, a Z-axis moving device 42, a rotating device 43 and a height-raising support frame 44. The X-axis moving device 41 and the rotating device 43 are arranged on the left side of the machine table 1. The X-axis moving device 41 is vertically arranged on the machine table 1. The rotating device 43 is arranged on the X-axis moving device 41. The grinding spindle part 3 is arranged on the rotating device 43. The Z-axis moving device 42 and the height-raising support frame 44 are arranged on the right side of the machine table. The height-raising support frame 44 is arranged on the machine table 1. The Z-axis moving device 42 is transversely arranged on the height-raising support frame 44 and corresponds to the rotating device 43. The grinding spindle part 3 is arranged above the Z-axis moving device 42 and corresponds to the workpiece spindle part 2.
[0023] It should be noted that the so-called Z-axis moving device 42 corresponds to the rotating device 43, and the grinding spindle part 3 corresponds to the workpiece spindle part 2, and one of the cores is to make the rotation axes of the workpiece spindle and the grinding spindle consistent in the horizontal direction during grinding, so that high-precision grinding can be performed. Because the X-axis moving device 41 and the Z-axis moving device 42 are mainly used to adjust the front-back and left-right position movements in the horizontal direction, no special moving device is provided for height adjustment. Of course, a Y-axis moving device can also be provided for vertical height adjustment. However, in the present device, height adjustment in the vertical direction is not necessary at the moment, because more adjustment and control in more directions will have more influence on the machining precision. Therefore, it is sufficient to ensure that the rotation axes of the workpiece spindle and the grinding spindle are consistent in the horizontal direction (at the same height, which is the reason why the supporting frame is used), and then the position relationship between the two is adjusted in the same horizontal direction by the X-axis moving device and the Z-axis moving device.
[0024] Specifically, the workpiece spindle assembly 21 includes a workpiece spindle seat 211, a workpiece spindle 212, and a workpiece spindle driving device 213. The workpiece spindle 212 is arranged on the workpiece spindle seat 211, and the workpiece spindle driving device 213 is connected with the workpiece spindle 212 to drive the workpiece spindle 212 to rotate. The workpiece spindle driving device 213 includes a workpiece spindle driving motor, a workpiece spindle driving pulley, and a workpiece spindle driving synchronous belt.
[0025] Of course, the workpiece spindle driving device can also be directly connected and driven by using a motor coupling and other components. However, the driving mode using a motor, a pulley, and a belt is more stable and reliable.
[0026] In addition, the workpiece spindle assembly 21 can also include a workpiece spindle metal cover 214.
[0027] Specifically, the workpiece clamping assembly 22 includes a flange plate 221 and a clamping chuck 222. The clamping chuck 222 is arranged at the front end of the workpiece spindle 212 through the flange plate 221.
[0028] Specifically, the end of the grinding spindle 31 is provided with a detachable mounting structure, and the grinding head device 32 or the measuring head device 33 is detachably arranged at the end of the grinding spindle.
[0029] It should be noted that an automatic tool changing device, such as a robot, can be provided to automatically replace the grinding head device or the measuring head device.
[0030] Specifically, the X-axis moving device 41 comprises an X-axis base 411, an X-axis guide rail sliding block assembly 412, an X-axis workbench 413, an X-axis grating ruler and an X-axis linear motor. The rotating device 43 is arranged on the X-axis workbench. The X-axis workbench 413 is arranged on the X-axis base 411 through the X-axis guide rail sliding block assembly 412. The X-axis linear motor drives the X-axis workbench 413 to move in the X-axis direction. The X-axis grating ruler monitors the movement of the X-axis workbench 413 in the X-axis direction.
[0031] More specifically, the Z-axis moving device 42 comprises a Z-axis base 421, a Z-axis guide rail sliding block assembly 422, a Z-axis grating ruler, a Z-axis linear motor and a Z-axis workbench 423. The grinding spindle 31 is arranged on the Z-axis workbench 423, and the horizontal height of the axis center of the grinding spindle 31 is consistent with the horizontal height of the axis center of the workpiece spindle 212. The Z-axis workbench 423 is arranged on the Z-axis base 421 through the Z-axis guide rail sliding block assembly 422. The Z-axis linear motor drives the Z-axis base 423 to move in the Z-axis direction. The Z-axis grating ruler monitors the movement of the Z-axis base 423 in the Z-axis direction.
[0032] More specifically, the rotating device 43 comprises a DD turntable 431 and a turntable connecting plate 432. The workpiece spindle part 2 is arranged on the DD turntable 431 through the turntable connecting plate 432.
[0033] It should be noted that the grinding process is generally for the cylindrical part of the workpiece. During the process, the axis center needs to be kept in the same horizontal plane to obtain the corresponding processing accuracy. The height supporting frame plays a role in raising the Z-axis moving device and the grinding spindle part thereon, so that the grinding spindle of the grinding spindle part and the workpiece spindle of the workpiece spindle part are in the same horizontal plane.
[0034] Specifically, the workpiece spindle part is arranged on the turntable connecting plate through the workpiece spindle seat of the workpiece spindle assembly. In addition, the connection can be realized through a sliding rail structure, and the relative position of the workpiece spindle seat on the turntable connecting plate can be adjusted horizontally when necessary. In addition, the DD turntable can realize rotation of ±90°.
[0035] The brittle and hard workpiece automatic grinding process based on the device comprises the following steps:
[0036] 1) Setting the standard parameters of the workpiece and storing them in the control system of the new automatic grinding device. On the basis of the standard parameters of the workpiece, the allowable error is taken into account as the qualified parameters of the workpiece;
[0037] 2) the workpiece clamping assembly clamps the workpiece to be processed on the workpiece spindle assembly, then measures the actual parameters of the workpiece to be processed by the measuring head device on the grinding spindle, compares the actual parameters of the workpiece to be processed with the standard parameters of the workpiece, calculates the amount of grinding processing required for the inner diameter, arc or slope of the workpiece to be processed, and forms an automatic grinding processing process step;
[0038] 3) the new automatic grinding equipment performs automatic grinding processing on the workpiece to be processed by the grinding head device on the grinding spindle according to the automatic grinding processing process step formed in step 2) through the cooperation of the workpiece spindle part, the grinding spindle part and the movement part;
[0039] 4) the workpiece to be processed after automatic grinding processing is measured by the measuring head device on the grinding spindle, and whether the parameters of the workpiece to be processed at this time meet the qualified parameters of the workpiece is determined;
[0040] 4.1) if the parameters of the workpiece to be processed at this time meet the qualified parameters of the workpiece, no compensation grinding processing is required, and a qualified workpiece is directly obtained;
[0041] 4.2) if the parameters of the workpiece to be processed at this time do not meet the qualified parameters of the workpiece, the standard parameters of the workpiece are compared again, the amount of compensation grinding processing required for the inner diameter, arc or slope of the workpiece to be processed is calculated, and an automatic compensation grinding processing process step is formed; then, the new automatic grinding equipment performs automatic compensation grinding processing on the workpiece to be processed by the grinding head device on the grinding spindle according to the automatic compensation grinding processing process step through the cooperation of the workpiece spindle part, the grinding spindle part and the movement part;
[0042] The workpiece to be processed after automatic compensation grinding processing is continuously measured by the measuring head device on the grinding spindle, and whether the parameters of the workpiece to be processed at this time meet the qualified parameters of the workpiece is determined; if yes, a qualified workpiece is obtained, and if no, the automatic compensation grinding processing process step is continuously formed, automatic compensation grinding processing is continuously performed until the parameters of the workpiece to be processed meet the qualified parameters of the workpiece, and a qualified workpiece is obtained.
[0043] It should be noted that the brittle and hard workpiece automatic grinding process is an automatic grinding process based on the standard parameters of the workpiece (the design parameters of the workpiece), the actual parameters (the measured parameters of the workpiece) and the qualified parameters of the workpiece (that is, the parameters of the workpiece processing to what extent is qualified, that is, the allowable processing error of the workpiece), in the process, the actual parameter measurement, automatic grinding processing, product detection measurement after processing are performed by relying on a new type of automatic grinding equipment. As for generating a specific processing program, for example, how to feed and how much to feed, it will be automatically generated by the system according to the shape and parameters of the workpiece. For example, the programs for processing a circular arc and a slope are different. The present application mainly protects the process steps of the brittle and hard workpiece automatic grinding process, and is not limited to the specific processing program itself, therefore, the control system for generating the specific processing program is not described here.
[0044] Specifically, the automatic grinding processing process steps and the automatic compensation grinding processing process steps involve one, two or three combinations of inner diameter, circular arc and slope grinding processing, and are repeated multiple times from inside to outside with the outer end surface of the workpiece as the reference. It should be noted that the repeated multiple times from inside to outside with the outer end surface of the workpiece as the reference is a preferred reference for generating the automatic grinding process processing program, but it does not represent the only program generation method. In theory, for example, a workpiece has an inner diameter and a circular arc or a slope, the inner diameter is processed first, and then the circular arc or the slope is processed, and this one-by-one processing is also feasible, but in practice, the efficiency and accuracy of such one-by-one processing are not ideal. The efficiency and accuracy of the repeated multiple times from inside to outside are better.
[0045] Specifically, when the parameter measurement or grinding processing is performed, the corresponding measuring head device or grinding head device is replaced and assembled on the grinding spindle by the mechanical hand device, or the corresponding measuring head device or grinding head device is replaced and assembled on the grinding spindle by manual operation.
