Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of deep groove ball bearing production and processing technology, specifically to a deep groove ball bearing production and processing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Deep groove ball bearings are the most common type of rolling bearing, possessing advantages such as low frictional resistance, high limiting speed, simple structure, low manufacturing cost, high precision, and minimal maintenance. They are widely used in various fields of industrial production. However, existing equipment presents several problems in the production and processing of deep groove ball bearings:

[0003] Currently, after deep groove ball bearings are manufactured, cleaning equipment often fails to thoroughly clean the inner and outer rings and the gaps between the balls, resulting in residual oil, debris, and other impurities. This not only affects the bearing's precision and service life but may also cause malfunctions during subsequent use. Furthermore, most existing testing equipment can only test a single bearing parameter, such as dimensional accuracy or surface roughness, making it difficult to achieve simultaneous and accurate testing of multiple bearing parameters. Manual inspection is not only inefficient but also susceptible to subjective factors, leading to inaccurate results and failing to meet the quality inspection requirements of large-scale production. The assembly of deep groove ball bearings is complex, involving the precise installation of multiple components such as inner and outer rings, balls, and cages. Moreover, existing assembly equipment has a low degree of automation, with many operations still requiring manual labor. This not only increases labor costs but also makes it difficult to ensure assembly consistency and stability, thus affecting the overall performance of the bearing. Therefore, there is a need to improve deep groove ball bearing manufacturing equipment to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] Preferably, the cleaning mechanism includes a cleaning tank, an ultrasonic generator, and a spray device. The ultrasonic generator is installed at the bottom of the cleaning tank, and the spray device is fixed inside the upper part of the cleaning tank. A drain port with a valve is provided on one side of the cleaning tank. The ultrasonic waves generated by the ultrasonic generator cause cavitation in the various gaps of the bearing, which, together with the spray device, washes the bearing surface, effectively removing oil stains, debris, and other impurities, achieving comprehensive and deep cleaning of the deep groove ball bearing.

[0007] Preferably, the testing mechanism includes a testing platform, a multi-parameter testing probe, and a data processing system. The multi-parameter testing probe is mounted above the testing platform and is electrically connected to the data processing system.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a deep groove ball bearing manufacturing and processing equipment, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0010] 1. Significantly Improved Cleaning Effect: The cleaning mechanism combines the cavitation effect of an ultrasonic generator with the scouring action of a spray device, enabling comprehensive and deep cleaning of the inner and outer rings of deep groove ball bearings, as well as the gaps between the balls. This design effectively removes oil stains, debris, and other impurities that are difficult to remove using traditional cleaning methods, ensuring the cleanliness of the bearing, thereby improving its precision and service life, and reducing the probability of failures caused by residual impurities.

[0011] 2. Precise and efficient testing: The testing facility employs multi-parameter probes, enabling simultaneous testing of multiple key parameters of deep groove ball bearings and real-time data transmission to the data processing system for analysis. Compared to traditional single-parameter testing equipment and manual testing methods, this significantly improves testing efficiency and accuracy, eliminates the interference of subjective factors, and allows for quick and accurate determination of bearing quality, meeting the stringent quality testing requirements of large-scale production.

[0012] 3. High degree of automation in assembly: The assembly mechanism achieves a high degree of automation in the deep groove ball bearing assembly process through the coordinated work of an automatic feeding device, an assembly robot, and positioning fixtures.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0021] Example:

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a deep groove ball bearing production and processing equipment, including a cleaning mechanism 1, a detection mechanism 2 on one side of the cleaning mechanism 1, and an assembly mechanism 3 on one side of the detection mechanism 2.

[0023] The cleaning mechanism 1 includes a cleaning tank 11, an ultrasonic generator 12, and a spray device 13. The ultrasonic generator 12 is installed at the bottom of the cleaning tank 11, and the spray device 13 is fixed inside the upper part of the cleaning tank 11. A drain port 14 is provided on one side of the cleaning tank 11, and a valve is installed at the drain port 14. During operation, the deep groove ball bearing is placed in the cleaning tank 11, and the ultrasonic generator 12 and the spray device 13 are started. The ultrasonic waves generated by the ultrasonic generator 12 cause the cleaning fluid to cavitate, penetrating deep into the bearing gaps to clean impurities. The spray device 13 rinses the bearing surface. After cleaning, the valve of the drain port 14 is opened to discharge wastewater.

[0024] The testing mechanism 2 includes a testing platform 21, a multi-parameter testing probe 22, and a data processing system 23. The multi-parameter testing probe 22 is mounted above the testing platform 21 and is electrically connected to the data processing system 23. The cleaned deep groove ball bearing is placed on the testing platform 21. The multi-parameter testing probe 22 tests multiple parameters of the bearing, and the test data is transmitted to the data processing system 23. The data processing system 23 analyzes and determines whether the bearing is qualified and outputs the test results.

[0025] Assembly mechanism 3 includes an automatic feeding device 31, an assembly robot 32, and a positioning fixture 33. The automatic feeding device 31 is used to transport the various components of the deep groove ball bearing. With the assistance of the positioning fixture 33, the assembly robot 32 precisely assembles the inner and outer rings, balls, cage, and other components together. The automatic feeding device 31 sequentially transports each component to a designated position. The assembly robot 32 grasps the components, and under the positioning action of the positioning fixture 33, assembles the components into a complete deep groove ball bearing according to the assembly process requirements.

[0026] Working Principle: When cleaning the deep groove ball bearing, the bearing is placed in the cleaning tank 11, which is pre-filled with an appropriate amount of cleaning fluid. The ultrasonic generator 12 is turned on, generating high-frequency ultrasonic waves that cause a large number of tiny bubbles to form in the cleaning fluid. These bubbles rapidly form and expand under the action of the ultrasonic waves, and then suddenly collapse, generating strong shock waves and micro-jet streams, i.e., the "cavitation effect." The cavitation effect can penetrate deep into the gaps between the inner and outer rings of the bearing and the balls, shaking off oil, debris, and other impurities attached to the surface. At the same time, the spray device 13 is activated, spraying and rinsing the bearing from above inside the cleaning tank 11. The sprayed water has a certain pressure and speed, which can further wash away the loosened impurities from the bearing surface. Combined with ultrasonic cleaning, this achieves a comprehensive and deep cleaning of the bearing. After cleaning, the valve at the drain port 14 on one side of the cleaning tank 11 is opened to discharge the wastewater containing impurities from the cleaning tank 11. The cleaned deep groove ball bearing is then placed on the testing platform 21. A multi-parameter detection probe 22 is mounted above the detection platform 21. It can simultaneously detect multiple key parameters of the bearing, such as dimensional accuracy, surface roughness, and roundness. The multi-parameter detection probe 22 incorporates various types of sensors, each targeting different detection parameters. When the probe detects the bearing, the sensors convert the detected physical signals into electrical signals, which are then transmitted to the data processing system 23 via electrical connections. Upon receiving the signals, the data processing system 23 performs a series of analyses and processes, comparing the detection data with pre-set standard parameters. Based on the comparison results, the system can quickly determine whether the bearing is qualified and output the detection results in an intuitive form, facilitating subsequent processing by operators. The automatic feeding device 31, according to the assembly process requirements, sequentially transports the various components of the deep groove ball bearing, such as inner and outer rings, balls, and cages, to the designated assembly positions. Once the components reach the designated positions, the assembly robot 32 begins operation. The assembly robot 32 has multiple movable joints and a flexible end effector, enabling it to precisely grasp each component. The positioning fixture 33 serves to fix and position the components, including the inner and outer rings of the bearing, accurately securing them in the appropriate positions and providing a stable foundation for the assembly operation. With the assistance of the positioning fixture 33, the assembly robot 32 precisely assembles the gripped components according to a pre-set assembly process and sequence.
