Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of guide rail production and processing, and in particular to a linear guide rail end face grinding machine. Background Technology

[0002] Linear guides are basic mechanical components that allow loads to slide back and forth along a straight path with high precision and low friction. Commonly known as "linear rails" or "slide rails," they are found in CNC machining centers, semiconductor equipment, medical robots, lithium battery assembly lines, and even automatic doors on high-speed trains. Linear guides often require multi-section splicing for installation, and the tight fit of the splicing surfaces is crucial. Therefore, the end faces of the guides must be ground before leaving the factory to ensure their perpendicularity and flatness, achieving a proper fit.

[0003] In related technologies, the end face of the guide rail is typically ground using a linear guide rail end face grinder. Currently, the coolant and grinding debris adhering to the guide rail after grinding are often removed by blowing with a fixed nozzle or airflow. However, when blowing with a fixed nozzle or airflow, the airflow tends to diffuse naturally, making it difficult to maintain a uniform and concentrated air pressure across the entire width of the guide rail. This affects the cleaning effect, easily leaving residue. Furthermore, the fixed nozzle outlet width cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the guide rail specifications, impacting production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in the related art.

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a linear guideway end face grinding machine, which generates an adjustable, uniform and concentrated air curtain when the guideway is unloaded through a cleaning component. When the guideway is taken out, the air curtain peels off the coolant water film and grinding debris from the surface of the guideway, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a linear guide end face grinding machine, comprising a machine body, a housing, a cleaning component, a grinding component, and a fixing component.

[0007] In addition, the linear guide end face grinding machine proposed above according to this utility model may also have the following additional technical features: Specifically, the adjustment assembly includes a slider, a forward and reverse lead screw, and a first driving device. The slider is disposed inside the air duct, the baffle is disposed on one side of the slider, the forward and reverse lead screw is disposed inside the air duct, the slider is disposed on the forward and reverse lead screw, and the first driving device is disposed on the housing.

[0008] Specifically, the collection assembly includes a collection trough, a support frame, and a blower mechanism, wherein the collection trough is disposed on the machine body, the support frame is disposed on the machine body, and the blower mechanism is disposed on the machine casing.

[0009] Specifically, the polishing assembly includes a polishing wheel and a second driving device, wherein the second driving device is disposed on the machine body and the polishing wheel is disposed on the second driving device.

[0010] Specifically, the fixing component includes a third driving device and a clamping block, the third driving device being disposed on the machine body and the clamping block being disposed on the third driving device.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. The linear guideway end face grinding machine of this utility model uses an adjustable air curtain to blow away and recycle the attached coolant and micro-chips at the grinding exit, so that the guideway is free of liquid and chip residue, directly meeting the cleanliness requirements for docking.

[0016] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Rather, the embodiments of the present invention include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

[0017] The linear guide end face grinding machine of this utility model embodiment will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0018] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the linear guide end face grinding machine of this utility model embodiment may include a machine body 1, a housing 2, a cleaning component 3, a grinding component 4, and a fixing component 5, wherein.

[0019] The casing 2 is mounted on the body 1.

[0020] The cleaning component 3 is installed on the housing 2. The cleaning component 3 includes an air duct 31, two symmetrically arranged baffles 32, an adjustment component 33, and a collection component 34. The air duct 31 is installed inside the housing 2, the two symmetrically arranged baffles 32 are installed on the air duct 31, the adjustment component 33 is installed inside the air duct 31, and the collection component 34 is installed on the housing 2.

[0021] The polishing component 4 is mounted on the body 1.

[0022] The fixing component 5 is installed on the body 1.

[0023] Specifically, the body 1 is used to stably support the device on the ground or on the mounting platform.

[0024] The housing 2 is mounted on the body 1 to cover the grinding area and prevent coolant and grinding debris from splashing to the outside.

[0025] The cleaning component 3 is installed on the housing 2 and is used to peel off and collect the coolant and micro-debris adhering to the end face of the guide rail in one go during grinding discharge with an adjustable slit air curtain, so as to ensure the cleanliness of the guide rail. The cleaning component 3 includes an air duct 31, two symmetrically arranged baffles 32, an adjustment component 33 and a collection component 34.

[0026] The air duct 31 can be installed inside the housing 2 to guide the clean air pressurized by the blower mechanism to the guide rail in the form of a high-speed, linear air curtain, so as to blow away the coolant and debris.

[0027] Two symmetrical baffles 32 are slidably installed inside the air duct 31 to form an adjustable slit at the outlet end, so that clean air is concentrated into a linear air curtain, and can be adjusted in time according to the different widths of the processing guide rails so that the air curtain completely covers the guide rails of different widths.

[0028] In one embodiment of this utility model, a flexible sealing strip can be installed at the connection between the baffle 32 and the air duct 31 to keep the baffle 32 in contact with the wall of the air duct 31 during the reciprocating adjustment process, so as to prevent high-pressure airflow from leaking from the connection gap and ensure the stability of the air curtain speed and width.

[0029] The adjustment component 33 is installed inside the air duct 31 and is used to drive the two baffles 32 to move closer or further away simultaneously, changing the slit width to adapt to the width of guide rails of different specifications, ensuring that the air curtain always concentrates energy to completely cover the guide rails.

[0030] The collection component 34 is installed on the housing 2 and is used to collect, guide and return the coolant and wear debris blown off by the air curtain to the coolant collection tank in an instant.

[0031] The grinding component 4 is installed on the machine body 1 and is used to grind the end face of the guide rail.

[0032] The fixing component 5 is installed on the body 1 to clamp and position the guide rail.

[0033] It should be noted that when the guide rail is placed on the machine body 1, the guide rail is firmly clamped and positioned by the fixing component 5. At the same time, the spacing between the two baffles 32 is controlled by the adjusting component 33 according to the size of the guide rail to ensure that the air curtain can completely cover the guide rail. Then, the end face of the guide rail is ground by the grinding component 4. During the grinding, the airflow is blown out from the air duct 31. The airflow forms an air curtain under the obstruction of the baffles 32 to prevent the coolant from spreading outward on the surface of the guide rail. After the grinding is completed, the fixing component 5 is released from clamping and fixing the guide rail. Then, the operator pulls out the guide rail. During the pulling out, the coolant and grinding debris are instantly blown away by the air curtain and fall into the collection component 34 with the airflow, so as to achieve drying and cleanness upon discharge, with no liquid film residue on the guide rail, which can meet the cleanliness requirements for docking.

[0034] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 5 As shown, the adjustment component 33 may include a slider 331, a forward and reverse lead screw 332 and a first driving device. The slider 331 is disposed inside the air duct 31, the baffle 32 is disposed on one side of the slider 331, the forward and reverse lead screw 332 is disposed inside the air duct 31, the slider 331 is disposed on the forward and reverse lead screw 332, and the first driving device is disposed on the housing 2.

[0035] Specifically, two sliders 331 are slidably installed on both sides of the inside of the air duct 31, and two baffles 32 are fixedly connected to one side of each slider 331.

[0036] In one embodiment of this utility model, a corresponding sealing structure can be installed between the slider 331 and the inner wall of the air duct 31 to block the leakage of high-pressure airflow from both sides of the slider 331, ensuring that all airflow can only be discharged from the adjustable slit, maintaining the speed of the air curtain and the effect of blowing.

[0037] The positive and negative lead screw 332 is rotatably installed inside the air duct 31. Two sliders 331 are respectively threaded to the positive thread and the negative thread on the outside of the positive and negative lead screw 332. One end of the positive and negative lead screw 332 extends out of the air duct 31.

[0038] The first drive unit is installed on the housing 2 and is used to drive the positive and negative lead screws 332 to rotate, thereby driving the two sliders 331 to move the baffles 32 away from or closer to each other, thereby controlling the width of the air curtain.

[0039] In one embodiment of this utility model, the first driving device can be a micro servo motor, fixed on the outside of the housing 2, with its output shaft coaxially connected to the forward and reverse lead screw 332 to achieve precise control of forward and reverse rotation, thereby driving the two sliders 331 to move away or closer synchronously, and driving the baffle 32 to move to complete the adjustment of the air curtain width.

[0040] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the collection component 34 may include a collection trough, a support frame, and a blower mechanism, wherein the collection trough is disposed on the body 1, the support frame is disposed on the body 1, and the blower mechanism is disposed on the housing.

[0041] Specifically, the collection tank is located on the body 1. After the coolant and debris blown off by the air curtain fall into the collection tank, they flow into the coolant collection box by gravity, thus realizing the immediate recovery of coolant.

[0042] The support frame spans the collection tank, with its upper surface in contact with the bottom surface of the guide rail. It is used to continuously support the collection tank area to prevent the guide rail from bending due to suspension, while ensuring smooth airflow.

[0043] The blower mechanism is installed on the upper part of the housing 2, and its air outlet is connected to the air duct 31. It is used to continuously provide high-pressure clean airflow to the air duct 31. After passing through the adjustable slit, it forms a high-speed air curtain to blow away the coolant and wear debris.

[0044] In one embodiment of this utility model, the blower mechanism can be a high-speed centrifugal fan or a vortex air pump to ensure its air pressure, so as to form sufficient shear force to blow the water film and debris away from the guide rail surface instantly.

[0045] It should be noted that after the grinding section of the guide rail leaves the grinding zone, it first passes through the air curtain area. The high-speed linear airflow blows away the coolant and debris on the guide rail. The coolant and debris are carried downward by the airflow into the collection tank. The debris and water are collected in the coolant collection tank, achieving drying upon discharge, with no liquid or debris, and can directly proceed to the next process.

[0046] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the grinding assembly 4 may include a grinding wheel and a second drive device, wherein the second drive device is mounted on the body 1 and the grinding wheel is mounted on the second drive device.

[0047] Specifically, the second drive unit is installed on the machine body 1 and is used to drive the grinding wheel to rotate.

[0048] The grinding wheel is mounted on its second drive assembly and is used to grind the end face of the guide rail.

[0049] In one embodiment of this utility model, the second driving device may be a servo motor, used to drive the grinding wheel to meet the grinding process requirements of guide rail end faces of different materials.

[0050] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the fixing component 5 may include a third driving device and a clamping block, wherein the third driving device is disposed on the body 1 and the clamping block is disposed on the third driving device.

[0051] Specifically, the third drive device is used to move the clamping block and fix the guide rail placed on the machine body 1 by controlling the clamping block.

[0052] In one embodiment of this utility model, the third driving device can be a servo electric cylinder, with its output shaft connected to the clamping block to achieve adjustable clamping force for fixing the guide rail.

[0053] The clamping blocks are installed on the third drive unit to clamp the guide rail synchronously on both sides, thereby achieving rigid fixation of the guide rail during the grinding process.

[0054] It should be noted that after the guide rail is placed on the upper part of the machine body 1, the third drive device is activated, and the clamping blocks synchronously clamp both sides of the guide rail in the transverse direction to complete rigid positioning.

[0055] In summary, the linear guideway end face grinding machine of this utility model uses an adjustable air curtain to blow away and recover the attached coolant and micro-chips at the grinding exit, leaving the guideway free of liquid and debris residue, directly meeting the cleanliness requirements for docking. Furthermore, the width of the air curtain of this linear guideway end face grinding machine can be adjusted in real time by driving the positive and negative lead screws to synchronously open and close the baffles on both sides, ensuring that the air curtain can completely cover the guideway without any cleaning dead corners.
