Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of gemstone processing equipment, specifically relating to a gemstone tumbling device. Background Technology

[0002] In nature, when sapphire grows, the presence of titanium and iron ions within the crystal causes it to appear blue, thus becoming blue sapphire. People gradually began to process sapphire, and during processing, sapphire crystals are usually ground using a tumbler.

[0003] Chinese patent document with application number CN202421126064.1 discloses a sapphire crystal grinding machine, including two support legs, a first fixed block, a second fixed block, a motor, a first gear, a rotating rod, an inner grinding barrel, and a rotating rod. The motor is detachably connected to the first fixed block and is located above the first fixed block. The first gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor and is located above the first fixed block. The rotating rod is fixedly connected to the first gear. One end of the inner grinding barrel is fixedly connected to the rotating rod. The rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inner grinding barrel. When the motor is started, it drives the first gear to rotate. The first gear drives the inner grinding barrel to rotate forward through the rotating rod. At the same time, the first gear drives the third gear to rotate through the second gear. The third gear drives the outer grinding barrel to rotate in the opposite direction through the connecting pipe.

[0004] Further research by the applicant revealed that the sapphire crystal processing tumbling mill in this technical solution has low efficiency. Due to structural limitations, the impact force generated by the gemstone inside the tumbling cylinder is relatively small, which means that the tumbling efficiency needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A gemstone tumbling apparatus, comprising:

[0007] The frame is connected to a power source;

[0008] A drive disc, which is rotatably mounted on the frame under the drive of a power source;

[0009] The main turntable is mounted on the frame.

[0010] The rotating shaft passes through the main turntable at one end and is connected to the drive disk;

[0011] A rotating cylinder is sleeved on the outer circumference of the other end of the rotating shaft. A connecting cylinder is connected to the side of the rotating cylinder, and a rotating rod is coaxially inserted through the connecting cylinder.

[0012] A grinding cylinder is used to hold gemstone materials, and the grinding cylinder is coaxially sleeved at the front end of the rotating rod;

[0013] The secondary turntable is connected to the tail of the rotating rod, and the secondary turntable is connected to the main turntable via a belt.

[0014] Furthermore, the grinding cylinder includes a grinding cylinder body, a sleeve disposed within the grinding cylinder body and capable of being fitted onto the outer periphery of the rotating rod, and a cover plate that cooperates with the end of the grinding cylinder body.

[0015] Furthermore, a pulley is coaxially mounted on the main turntable.

[0016] Furthermore, a connecting arm connects the connecting cylinder and the rotating cylinder.

[0017] Furthermore, fasteners are provided on the rotating cylinder.

[0018] Furthermore, the grinding cylinder is configured in two sets.

[0019] Furthermore, the end of the rotating rod is threaded.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:

[0021] By employing a main turntable and a slave turntable configuration, the driving force of the power source is converted into the rotation of the grinding cylinder, realizing the basic gemstone grinding process. Since the grinding cylinder is fixed to the connecting cylinder via a rotating rod, both the connecting cylinder and the grinding cylinder can rotate around the main turntable, forming a revolution of the grinding cylinder. Under this motion, the gemstone material can be significantly tumbled during the rotation of the grinding cylinder, increasing the impact force of the gemstone material within the grinding cylinder, thereby increasing work efficiency, reducing working time, and improving the quality of the gemstone grinding process.

[0029] like Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, the present invention provides a gemstone grinding device, which includes a frame 1, a drive disk 20, a main turntable 3, a rotating shaft 31, a rotating cylinder 32, and a grinding cylinder 5.

[0030] Among them, the frame 1 is connected to the power source 2;

[0031] The drive disc 20 is rotatably mounted on the frame 1 under the drive of the power source 2, and the two are connected by a belt 60.

[0032] The main turntable 3 is mounted on frame 1;

[0033] One end of the rotating shaft 31 passes through the main turntable 3 and is connected to the drive disk 20;

[0034] The rotating cylinder 32 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the other end of the rotating shaft 31. A connecting cylinder 34 is connected to the side of the rotating cylinder 32, and a rotating rod 40 is coaxially inserted through the connecting cylinder 34.

[0035] Among them, the grinding cylinder 5 is used to place the gemstone material, and the grinding cylinder 5 is coaxially sleeved on the front end of the rotating rod 40;

[0036] The tail of the rotating rod 40 is connected to a secondary turntable 6, which is connected to the main turntable 3 via a belt 60.

[0037] The arrangement of a main turntable 3 and a slave turntable 6 converts the driving force of the power source 2 into the rotation of the grinding cylinder 5, realizing the basic gemstone grinding process. Since the grinding cylinder 5 is fixed to the connecting cylinder 34 via a rotating rod 40, while the main turntable 3 rotates, the connecting cylinder 34 and the grinding cylinder 5 can rotate around the rotating cylinder 32, forming a revolution of the grinding cylinder 5. Under this motion, the gemstone material can be significantly tumbled during the rotation of the grinding cylinder 5, increasing the impact force of the gemstone material within the grinding cylinder 5, thereby increasing work efficiency, reducing working time, and improving the quality of the gemstone grinding process.

[0038] The main turntable 3 is coaxially equipped with a pulley 30, and a groove is opened from the upper edge of the turntable 6 to cooperate with the belt 60, connecting the turntable 6 and the main turntable 3 to realize the transmission of power.

[0039] The grinding cylinders 5 are configured in two sets, symmetrically arranged, which provides better dynamic balance. The pulley 30 can be matched with two sets of belts 60, which are respectively connected to two sets of turntables 6.

[0040] The grinding cylinder 5 includes a grinding cylinder body 50, a sleeve 51 disposed inside the grinding cylinder body 50 and sleeved around the outer periphery of the rotating rod 40, and a cover plate 52 that cooperates with the end of the grinding cylinder body 50.

[0041] The gemstone raw materials to be processed are put into the grinding cylinder body 50 in batches, the cover plate 52 is closed, and together they are fitted onto the rotating rod 40. The nut is used to cooperate with the end of the rotating rod 40. Since the end of the rotating rod 40 is threaded, the cover plate 52 is fixed to the side of the grinding cylinder body 50. At the same time, the entire grinding cylinder 5 can also be fastened and locked onto the rotating rod 40.

[0042] A connecting arm 33 connects the connecting cylinder 34 and the rotating cylinder 32. The connecting arm 33 can be welded to the connecting cylinders 34 and the rotating cylinder 32 on both sides. The length of the connecting arm 33 can affect the degree of tumbling of the gemstone material inside the grinding cylinder 5.

[0043] Fasteners 320 are provided on the rotating cylinder 32. By tightening the fasteners 320, such as bolts, the rotating cylinder 32 can be loosened, thereby disassembling or assembling the rotating cylinder 32 from the rotating shaft 31.

[0044] The above are merely embodiments of this utility model. Commonly known structures and characteristics are not described in detail here. Those skilled in the art are aware of all common technical knowledge in the field prior to the application date or priority date, are aware of all existing technologies in that field, and have the ability to apply conventional experimental methods prior to that date.
