Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic shaft processing technology, specifically to a ceramic shaft grooving device. Background Technology
[0002] Ceramic materials, with their excellent properties such as high hardness, high strength, high temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance, are widely used in many fields of modern industry, such as aerospace, electronic information, and medical devices. Ceramic shafts, as key components, often require slotting to meet specific assembly or functional requirements.
[0003] Based on the above, the inventors have discovered the following problems: In actual factory production, the ceramic shaft grooving process often relies on manual operation. Workers need to hold the ceramic shaft and work closely with a high-speed rotating grinding wheel to perform the grooving operation. When the grinding wheel is rotating at high speed, the linear velocity can reach tens of meters per second. If the ceramic shaft is not held steadily or an operational error is made, the worker's hand is very likely to be caught in the grinding wheel, causing serious cuts, abrasions, or even fractures and other workplace injuries.
[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing structure and its shortcomings, and provided a ceramic shaft grooving device in order to achieve a more practical purpose. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a ceramic shaft grooving device to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the ceramic shaft grooving process often relies on manual operation in actual factory production.
[0006] In view of the above problems, the technical solution proposed by this utility model is as follows:
[0007] A ceramic shaft grooving device includes a spraying mechanism, a clamping mechanism, and a grooving mechanism. The spraying mechanism includes a housing with a barrier installed on the upper end. Movable frames are installed on both sides of the housing, and slide rails are installed on the upper ends of the movable frames. The clamping mechanism includes a fixed box, one side of which is inserted into one side of the barrier, and a pneumatic clamping plate is rotatably inserted into one side of the fixed box. The grooving mechanism includes a support frame, with a pair of slide rails slidably connected to the two sides of the bottom interior of the support frame. A movable plate is slidably inserted into the top interior of the support frame, and a grooving machine is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the movable plate. A telescopic rod is inserted at the center of the upper end of the support frame, and the bottom end of the telescopic rod is connected to the top end of the movable plate. The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are that the spray mechanism's housing provides basic support for the entire equipment, the enclosure prevents debris and coolant from splashing during processing, the movable frame and slide rail provide a moving track for the grooving mechanism's support frame, facilitating adjustment of the grooving position, the clamping mechanism's fixed box is inserted into the enclosure for stable installation, the pneumatic chuck can firmly clamp the ceramic shaft, the grooving mechanism's support frame slides on the slide rail, the movable plate can move up and down within the support frame, driving the grooving machine to perform grooving operations on different positions of the ceramic shaft, and the telescopic rod assists in controlling the lifting and lowering of the movable plate.
[0008] Furthermore, each of the movable frames is rotatably connected to a screw, and each screw is threaded with a slider. The outer sides of the sliders are respectively connected to the two sides of the inner bottom of the support frame.

[0011] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the first servo motor at one end of the moving frame provides power for the rotation of the screw, which can control the rotation of the screw, thereby controlling the moving speed and position of the support frame, and further improving the accuracy and efficiency of grooving.
[0012] Furthermore, a second servo motor is fixedly installed on one side of the interior of the fixed box, and a gear is fitted onto the output end of the second servo motor.

The advantage of this further solution is that the meshing of the geared disc and gear at one end of the pneumatic chuck allows the power of the second servo motor to be transmitted to the pneumatic chuck via gear transmission, causing the pneumatic chuck to rotate the held ceramic shaft. This facilitates grooving operations at different circumferential positions on the ceramic shaft, improving the flexibility and versatility of the machining process.
[0015] Furthermore, spray racks are installed on both sides of the upper end face of the box, and several omnidirectional ball nozzles are provided on the opposing surfaces of the spray racks.

The coolant can fully cover the ceramic shaft and the cutting tool of the grooving machine, which can cool the cutting tool, reduce the processing temperature, and wash away the debris, thereby improving the tool life and processing quality.
[0017] Furthermore, water tanks are installed on both sides of the upper part of the box, and a pump is installed on one side of each water tank. The input end of the pump is connected to the water tank through a pipe, and the output end of the pump is connected to the spray frame through a pipe.

[0033] Specifically, the working principle of this ceramic shaft grooving equipment is as follows: First, the ceramic shaft is placed on the pneumatic chuck 202 of the clamping mechanism 2.

Through meshing with the gear plate 203 at one end of the pneumatic chuck 202, the pneumatic chuck 202 drives the ceramic shaft to rotate, meeting the grooving requirements at different circumferential positions. In the spraying mechanism 1, the water tank 113 stores coolant, and the pump 112 extracts the coolant and transports it to the spray frame 105 through pipelines. The universal ball nozzles 106 on the opposing surfaces of the spray frame 105 spray the processing area from different angles, cooling the cutting tool of the grooving machine 304, reducing the processing temperature, and washing away debris. After rinsing, the coolant and debris are collected in the drainage groove 107 on the upper end of the housing 101 and then discharged through the drainage port 109 on the bottom side of the housing 101. The bottom sides of the support frame 301 of the grooving mechanism 3 are slidably connected to the slide rail 108 on the movable frame 103. The first servo motor 104 at one end of the movable frame 103 drives the screw 110 to rotate. The slider 111 threaded on the screw 110 drives the support frame 301 to move horizontally on the slide rail 108 to adjust the grooving position. At the same time, the telescopic rod 303 inside the support frame 301 controls the movable plate 302 to slide up and down, thereby driving the grooving machine 304 installed at the bottom of the movable plate 302 to perform grooving operation on the ceramic shaft, and finally complete the grooving process of the ceramic shaft.
