Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grinding thin-walled aerospace castings, and in particular to a grinding device for thin-walled aerospace castings. Background Technology

[0002] When producing aerospace parts, we mostly use casting. This production method is simple and can quickly make wax models according to different shapes and sizes, thereby making dumpling molds. It is very friendly to small-batch production of aerospace parts. However, the drawback is that the outer surface of the demolded product is rough, so it needs to be polished. Based on disc parts, we have designed a polishing device for thin-walled aerospace castings. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, adapt to practical needs, and provide a grinding device for thin-walled aerospace castings.

[0004] To achieve the purpose of this utility model, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a grinding device for thin-walled aerospace castings, including a grinding table, a casting fixing component, and a grinding wheel. The grinding table has a fixing hole in the middle, and the upper end of the casting fixing component extends out of the fixing hole. The part hole in the middle of the casting is fitted onto the casting fixing component at the fixing hole. The casting fixing component can open and close to clamp the part hole and release. A rotary motor is arranged directly above the casting fixing component. A rotating plate is connected to the rotating shaft below the rotary motor. A grinding motor bracket is connected to one end of the rotating plate. A grinding motor is arranged on the grinding motor bracket. The rotating shaft below the grinding motor passes through the grinding motor bracket and connects to the grinding wheel below.

[0005] An elastic connector is used to connect the rotating plate and the grinding motor bracket. The elastic connector includes a spring tube, a spring, and a telescopic rod. One side of the spring tube has an opening with a diameter smaller than its inner diameter. A telescopic rod is retractably mounted at this opening. A limit block is provided at the extended end of the telescopic rod, and a spring is positioned between the limit block and the bottom of the spring tube. The telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the grinding motor bracket, and the spring tube is fixedly connected to the rotating plate. During grinding, the spring is in a contracted state.

[0006] The rotary motor is mounted on a rotating support on the grinding table.

[0007] The casting fixing component includes an expansion rod, expansion petals, and an expansion cylinder. The expansion petals are arranged in a circular array on the outer ring of the expansion rod, and their roots are fixed to the fixing tube. Under normal conditions, the expansion petals can converge into a circular tubular structure with an isosceles trapezoidal cross-section. The diameter of the expansion rod is smaller than that of the tubular structure formed by splicing the expansion petals at the large diameter end and larger than that at the smallest diameter end. The expansion rod is driven to extend and retract by the expansion cylinder, thereby causing the expansion petals to expand and retract.

[0008] An annular elastic rope is fixed between the ends of the expansion valves. Under normal conditions, the expansion valves retract under the action of the elastic rope.

[0009] A clamping block is provided on the outer ring of the end of the expansion valve.

[0010] Limiting wheels are installed on the grinding motor brackets on both sides of the grinding wheel. The function of the two limiting wheels is to prevent the grinding wheel from grinding too deeply.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] This device has a simple structure and is easy to operate. Workers push the parts onto the casting fixture for fixing, and then the grinding motor drives the rotation for grinding. Attached Figure Description

[0018] See Figure 1-3 .

[0019] This utility model discloses a grinding device for thin-walled aerospace castings, including a grinding table 1, a casting fixing member 3, and a grinding wheel 2. The grinding table 1 has a fixing hole in the middle, and the upper end of the casting fixing member 3 extends out of the fixing hole. The part hole in the middle of the casting 4 is fitted onto the casting fixing member at the fixing hole. The casting fixing member can open and close to clamp the part hole and release. A rotary motor 5 is arranged directly above the casting fixing member. A rotating plate 6 is connected to the rotating shaft below the rotary motor. A grinding motor bracket 7 is connected to one end of the rotating plate 6. A grinding motor 8 is arranged on the grinding motor bracket. The rotating shaft below the grinding motor passes through the grinding motor bracket and connects to the grinding wheel below.

[0020] An elastic connector is used to connect the rotating plate and the grinding motor bracket. The elastic connector includes a spring tube 9, a spring 10, and a telescopic rod 11. One side of the spring tube has an opening with a diameter smaller than its inner diameter. A telescopic rod 11 is telescopically mounted at this opening. A limit block 12 is provided at the extended end of the telescopic rod, and a spring is positioned between the limit block and the bottom of the spring tube. The telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the grinding motor bracket, and the spring tube is fixedly connected to the rotating plate. During grinding, the spring is in a contracted state.

[0021] The rotary motor is mounted on the rotary support 13 on the grinding table.

The expansion petals are arranged in a circular array on the outer ring of the expansion rod, and their roots are fixed to the fixing tube 17. Under normal conditions, the expansion petals can converge into a circular tubular structure with an isosceles trapezoidal cross-section. The diameter of the expansion rod is smaller than that of the tubular structure formed by splicing the expansion petals at the large diameter end and larger than that at the smallest diameter end. The expansion rod is driven to extend and retract by the expansion cylinder, thereby causing the expansion petals to expand and retract.

[0023] An annular elastic rope 18 is fixedly installed between the ends of the expansion valve. Under normal conditions, the expansion valve closes under the action of the elastic rope.

[0024] A clamping block 19 is provided on the outer ring of the end of the expansion valve.

[0025] Limiting wheels 20 are installed on the grinding motor brackets on both sides of the grinding wheel. The function of the two limiting wheels is to prevent the grinding wheel from grinding too deeply.
