[0002] At the moment of the vigorous development of new energy automobile industry, as the core component of the steering mechanism, the machining quality of the steering screw rod is directly related to the accurate realization of the automatic driving function. With the increasingly stringent requirements for vehicle control performance, the steering screw rod not only needs to have extremely high dimensional accuracy to ensure that the steering angle is accurate to the nearest millimeter, but also must meet stringent standards for surface finish to reduce frictional resistance, reduce wear and tear, and prolong service life. However, the current traditional polishing technology of the steering screw rod has become a bottleneck restricting the improvement of its quality. The traditional manual polishing method completely relies on the experience and skills of the operator. Due to the limitations of manual operation, it is difficult to ensure that each screw rod can achieve a high degree of consistent polishing accuracy, resulting in uneven product quality and failing to meet the needs of high-precision steering systems of new energy vehicles.

During the polishing process, a large amount of fine dust is generated, which diffuses in the air of the entire workshop, not only reducing the visibility of the workshop and affecting the operator's vision, but also increasing the risk of operation errors. Long-term inhalation of these dusts can cause serious harm to the respiratory system and skin of the operator, causing occupational diseases such as pneumoconiosis and skin disease.

[0103] The lifting device drives the moving platform to rise, and the mechanical arm places the steering screw on the support block of the moving platform. The work step moving device 220 moves to horizontally move the steering screw to the first top holding work step. The two moving modules 241 of the moving top center drive the top center 243 to move to the end of the steering screw until the top center is in contact with the end of the steering screw and remains. Then the lifting device drives the moving platform to descend, so that the support block is separated from the steering screw.
[0104] The polishing horizontal module 510 and the polishing vertical module 520 of the polishing device move to align the polishing wheel with the position of the steering screw. The servo motor drives the polishing wheel to rotate to polish the steering screw. At the same time, the steering screw rotates under the drive of the rotating shaft. In the polishing process, the polishing horizontal module 510 controls the polishing wheel to move in the axial direction of the moving feed shaft to realize the polishing of the steering screw.
[0105] When the rough polishing of the steering screw is completed, the lifting device drives the moving platform to rise so that the steering screw is located on the support block. Then the two moving top centers move in the opposite direction to separate from the steering screw. The moving module 231 drives the steering screw to move downward to the work step, and the above-mentioned top holding and polishing process is repeated. When all the polishing processes are completed, another mechanical arm moves the steering screw to the discharging device. The moving process is the same as the movement of the steering screw to the polishing platform, which will not be described here. The discharging device completes the output of the steering screw, and thus the whole automatic polishing process of the steering screw is completed.
[0106] The automatic steering screw polishing system realizes high-precision automatic polishing of the steering screw through the precise cooperation of the mechanical arm and the polishing device. The design of the floating spindle enables the polishing wheel to dynamically adjust the axial position, realizing self-calibration positioning with the steering screw, thereby improving the polishing precision. The design of the shielding bin effectively prevents the dust generated during polishing from escaping, protecting the health of the operators. The dust suction device further enhances the dust handling capacity and reduces environmental pollution.
[0107] The automatic operation process of the automatic steering screw polishing system reduces manual intervention and significantly improves the polishing efficiency. The system can continuously and stably perform polishing work, shortening the production cycle. Automatic polishing avoids the problem of inconsistent polishing precision caused by manual operation, so that each screw can achieve a high degree of consistent polishing standard. This helps to improve the overall quality of the steering screw and meets the demand of high-precision steering system of new energy vehicles.
[0108] The initial investment of the full-automatic polishing system can be high, but in the long run, it can reduce labor costs and rework costs caused by quality problems. At the same time, the efficient operation of the system also reduces energy consumption and maintenance costs. Avoiding long-term exposure of workers to harsh polishing environments reduces the risk of occupational diseases. The mechanized operation process reduces the possibility of human operation errors and improves job safety.
[0109] In summary, the full-automatic lead screw polishing system not only improves polishing precision and production efficiency, but also improves the working environment, guarantees product quality, reduces production costs, and improves safety. These advantages make the system have broad application prospects and important market value in the new energy automobile industry.
[0110] The above content only illustrates the technical idea of the utility model, and cannot limit the protection scope of the utility model, and any modification made on the basis of the technical scheme according to the technical idea of the utility model falls within the protection scope of the utility model claim.
