Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of handheld polishing machine technology, and more specifically, to a small handheld polishing machine with a guiding function. Background Technology

[0002] Handheld grinders are efficient and portable grinding tools primarily used for grinding, polishing, and deburring the surfaces of various materials. They utilize an internal motor to drive the grinding head (such as a grinding wheel or disc) to rotate or vibrate at high speed. The friction between the abrasive particles and the workpiece surface removes surface contaminants, smooths uneven surfaces, and polishes them to a smooth finish. Handheld grinders can complete grinding tasks quickly and accurately, improving processing efficiency and surface quality. Furthermore, their portability allows for on-site grinding, reducing the hassle of transporting workpieces. Handheld grinders are powerful, easy-to-operate, and widely applicable grinding tools, playing a vital role in modern industrial production and home renovation.

[0003] Existing handheld grinders typically require operators to manually control the grinding depth and direction based on experience. This not only demands a high level of skill from the operator but also easily leads to fatigue during prolonged use, affecting grinding quality and efficiency. Especially when dealing with workpiece edges, maintaining a uniform grinding depth and smooth transition is difficult, easily resulting in over-grinding or under-grinding. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a small handheld grinder with a guiding function to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0029] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0030] Example:

[0031] like Figs. 1 to 6 As shown, a small handheld grinder with a guiding function includes a grinding head 1 and a positioning and guiding mechanism 2. The grinding head 1 is mounted on the body 3 of the grinder and is responsible for performing the grinding operation. The positioning and guiding mechanism 2 is provided on the outside of the grinding head 1 to guide and control the movement direction and grinding depth of the grinding head 1.

[0032] The positioning and guiding mechanism 2 includes a limiting component 22, a support plate 23, a retaining ring 24, an annular groove 26, and a sliding plate 211. The retaining ring 24 is fixed to the upper part of the grinding machine body 3. A T-shaped sliding groove 231 is formed inside the retaining ring 24. A semi-circular sliding plate 211 is provided inside the annular groove 26 to match it, and the sliding plate 211 is slidably connected to the retaining ring 24. Two sets of symmetrical support plates 23 are provided on the upper side of the sliding plate 211, and the two sets of support plates 23 are symmetrically located on the outside of the grinding head 1. Each set of support plates 23 has two... A set of limiting components 22 is included to limit and adjust the grinding depth of the grinding head 1. One set of limiting components 22 is fixedly connected to the support plate 23, while the other set is adjustablely connected to the support plate 23. The limiting components 22 are perpendicular to the axis of the grinding head 1. This design solves the problem that existing handheld grinders typically require operators to manually control the grinding depth and direction of movement based on experience. This not only demands high technical skills from the operator but also easily leads to fatigue during prolonged operation, affecting grinding quality and efficiency. Especially when dealing with workpiece edges, it is difficult to maintain a uniform grinding depth and smooth transition, easily resulting in over-grinding or under-grinding.

[0033] In this embodiment, the limiting component 22 includes a sleeve 222, an external thread 223, a positioning nut 224, an adjusting groove 225, a stop block 226, a connecting rod 227, and a return spring 228. One end of the connecting rod 227 is connected to the support plate 23, and the other end is fitted with the sleeve 222. The sleeve 222 contains a return spring 228. Two sets of adjusting grooves 225 are symmetrically opened on the annular surface of the sleeve 222. Two sets of stop blocks 226 are symmetrically fixed on the outer end of the connecting rod 227. The stop blocks 226 are engaged in the adjusting grooves 225 and slidably connected thereto. The sleeve 222 has an external thread 223 engraved on its annular surface, and the positioning nut 224 is threadedly connected to the annular surface of the sleeve 222. The limiting component 22 can limit and support the grinding head 1, restricting the movement range of the grinding head 1, thereby limiting and adjusting the grinding depth of the grinding head 1.

[0034] In this embodiment, a groove 231 is provided on the support plate 23 near its upper end. An adjusting bolt 232 is inserted into the groove 231. The inner end of the adjusting bolt 232 is inserted into the connecting rod 227 on the adjustable limiting component 22 and screwed thereon. This design enables the position adjustment of the limiting component 22, thereby allowing the spacing between the two sets of limiting components 22 to be adjusted. This facilitates the grinding of the edges of workpieces of different thicknesses and improves the applicability.

[0035] In this embodiment, a rotatable ball bearing 221 is embedded at the outer end of the sleeve 222. The design of the ball bearing 221 can significantly reduce the frictional resistance between the sleeve 222 and the workpiece contact surface, improve the smoothness of the movement of the grinding head 1 along the workpiece surface, and at the same time prevent wear on the workpiece surface.

[0036] In this embodiment, the right side of the grinding head 1 is covered with an arc-shaped protective cover 21, and the protective cover 21 is fixedly connected to two sets of support plates 23. During the grinding process, the fragments, dust and sparks generated by the high-speed rotation of the grinding head 1 may cause injury to the operator. The arc-shaped protective cover 21 can effectively block these flying objects and protect the operator's eyes, face and other parts of the body from injury.

[0037] In this embodiment, two sets of insertion seats 27 are symmetrically fixed on the annular surface of the slide plate 211. Insertion slots 28 are formed inside the insertion seats 27. A T-shaped insertion plate 25 is fixed to the bottom of the support plate 23. The insertion plate 25 is inserted into the insertion slot 28 and detachably connected to the insertion seat 27. The design of the insertion plate 25 and the insertion seats 27 enables a detachable connection between the limiting component 22 and the grinding machine body 3, facilitating quick installation and disassembly and improving operational convenience.

[0038] In this embodiment, a screw hole 29 is provided in the middle of the slide plate 211, and a locking bolt 210 is installed inside the screw hole 29. The inner end of the locking bolt 210 penetrates the slide plate 211 and extends into the annular groove 26. The locking bolt 210 and the screw hole 29 can lock the slide plate 211, making it easy to fix the slide plate 211 in the current position and ensuring the stability of the slide plate 211 on the retaining ring 24.

[0039] The working principle of this small handheld grinder with guidance function:

[0040] In actual use, first insert the plug plate 25 into the plug socket 27 to ensure a stable connection between the limiting component 22 and the grinding machine body 3, thus installing the limiting component 22. Then, rotate the slide plate 211 to adjust the position of the limiting component 22, and rotate the locking bolt 210 to lock the position of the slide plate 211 on the retaining ring 24, ensuring that the slide plate 211 will not slide. Then, adjust the position of the limiting component 22. According to the thickness of the workpiece edge, adjust the distance between the two sets of limiting components 22 by rotating the positioning nut 224 and the adjusting bolt 232. It should be noted that the contact plane formed by the outermost edge of the ball bearing 221 at the end of the limiting component 22 is designed to slightly protrude from the grinding working surface of the grinding head 1. When the operator holds the grinding machine and makes the ball bearing 221 contact and adhere to the workpiece surface, the grinding head 1 has not yet contacted the workpiece. At this time, the operator can stably guide the entire equipment to move along the edge of the workpiece by using the ball bearing 221 as a sliding fulcrum. When grinding is required, the operator only needs to apply slight force radially towards the grinding head (i.e., towards the workpiece) to push the entire grinding machine body 3. At this time, inside the limiting component 22, the sleeve 222 is compressed, and the return spring 228 inside is compressed, allowing the connecting rod 227 to slide inward relative to the sleeve 222 (i.e., towards the grinding machine body 3). This sliding process allows the grinding machine body 3, along with the grinding head 1, to feed towards the workpiece until the grinding head 1 contacts the workpiece surface and reaches the predetermined grinding depth. Then, the limiting component 22 is adjusted according to the required grinding depth by rotating the adjusting positioning nut 224 on the sleeve 222. At this time, the distance from the stop block 226 to the positioning nut 224 is the distance that the connecting rod 227 can move, which is the distance that the grinding head 1 can move, i.e., the grinding depth. Therefore, by rotating the positioning nut 224 to preset the stop position of the stop block 226, the maximum movable stroke of the connecting rod 227 (along with the grinding machine body 3 and the grinding head 1 fixed thereto) is determined. When the ball bearing 221 contacts the workpiece, force continues to be applied, and the grinding head 1 feeds towards the workpiece until the stop block 226 on the connecting rod 227 abuts against the positioning nut 224 and can no longer move. At this point, the grinding depth has just reached the preset value. Then, the grinding machine is started, and the grinding head 1 is aligned with the edge of the workpiece to begin the grinding operation. During this process, the ball bearing 221 on the sleeve 222 assembly abuts against the workpiece surface, reducing the contact friction.

[0041] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is impossible to exhaustively list all the implementation methods here. Any obvious variations or modifications derived from the technical solutions of this utility model are still within the protection scope of this utility model.
