Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of grinding machine technology, and specifically relates to a grinding machine loading device. Background Technology
[0002] A grinding machine is a type of grinding machine that does not require workpiece axis positioning for grinding. It mainly consists of three mechanisms: driven wheel, driving wheel, and workpiece support. The driven wheel actually performs the grinding work, the driving wheel controls the rotation of the workpiece and the feed rate of the workpiece, and the workpiece support supports the workpiece during grinding. There are three main grinding methods for cylindrical grinding machines: through grinding, plunge grinding, plunge-through grinding, and through grinding.
[0003] In current use of plunge grinding machines, the loading and unloading of the grinding machine are completed by a loading clamp. First, the workpiece is clamped and placed on the workpiece support for processing. After processing is completed, the processed workpiece is taken out and placed on the feeder. Then, a new workpiece is clamped and loaded. During the entire processing process, the grinding machine is not working from the time the unloading is completed to the time the new workpiece is added, which wastes processing time and resources.

A workpiece support is provided between the driven wheel and the driving wheel. The feature is that it further includes a support frame arranged in an inverted U-shape outside the base. A first feeder and a second feeder are respectively provided between the inner walls of the base and the support frame on both sides. The first feeder and the second feeder are symmetrically arranged. A gripping component is also provided on the support frame.
[0006] The gripping component includes a mounting frame fixed to the top surface of the support frame and a transfer box slidably mounted on the mounting frame. Two synchronously moving grippers are fixedly mounted at the bottom of the transfer box. The mounting frame is also equipped with a power component adapted to the transfer box.
[0007] It should be noted in the solution that the first feeder includes a second feeding box and a second receiving box disposed on the base.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0019] Please see Figure 1-3 A grinding machine feeding device includes a base 1, a drive wheel 8 slidably disposed on one side of the top surface of the base 1, and a driven wheel 7 fixedly installed on the other side of the top surface of the base 1. A workpiece support is provided between the driven wheel 7 and the drive wheel 8. The device is characterized by further including a support frame 12 arranged in an inverted U-shape outside the base 1. A first feeder and a second feeder are respectively provided between the inner walls of the base 1 and the support frame 12. The first feeder and the second feeder are symmetrically arranged. A gripping component is also provided on the support frame 12. The gripping component includes a mounting frame 10 connected to and fixed on the top surface of the support frame 12 and a transfer box 9 slidably disposed on the mounting frame. Two synchronously moving grippers 6 are fixedly disposed at the bottom of the transfer box 9. A power component adapted to the transfer box 9 is also provided on the mounting frame.
[0020] The first feeder includes a second feed box 5 and a second take-up box 4 disposed on the base 1. The second take-up box 4 and the second feed box 5 are arranged side by side, and the second feed box 5 abuts against the support frame 12.
[0021] The second feeder includes a first feed box 2 and a first take-up box 3 disposed on the base 1. The first feed box 2 and the first take-up box 3 are arranged side by side, and the first take-up box 3 abuts against the support frame 12.
[0022] By setting up the gripping components, in actual use, the base 1 is first positioned and fixed: the base 1 is placed stably on a flat ground prepared in advance near the working area of the grinding machine, and the base 1 is reliably fixed with anchor bolts or other fixing devices to ensure that it does not vibrate or shift during operation. Then, the wheel system and workpiece support are installed: on one side of the top surface of the base 1, the drive wheel 8 is installed through bearing seats and other components, and it is ensured that it can slide smoothly along the preset track. On the other side of the top surface of the base 1, the driven wheel 7 is fixedly installed at the position corresponding to the drive wheel 8. Between the drive wheel 8 and the driven wheel 7, a workpiece support is installed to support the workpiece to be processed. The height and level of the workpiece support are adjusted so that it can stably support the workpiece.
[0023] Next, install the support frame 12: Place the inverted U-shaped support frame 12 over the base 1, which already has the wheel system installed. Securely connect the bottom of the support frame 12 to the base 1 or the ground to ensure the rigidity of the overall structure. Then, install the feeding unit. First, install the first feeder: On the base 1, near the inner wall of one side of the support frame 12, install the first feeding box 2 and the first receiving box 3 side-by-side. The first receiving box 3 should be installed against or very close to the inner wall of the support frame 12. Second, install the second feeder: On the base 1, symmetrically opposite to the first feeder, install the second feeding box 5 and the second receiving box 4 side-by-side. Similarly, the second receiving box 4 should be against the inner wall of the support frame 12. All feeding boxes and receiving boxes are fixedly connected to the base 1 via fixing brackets 15. Install several fixing brackets 15 according to the actual layout on both sides of the base 1 to ensure the stability of the feeding boxes.
[0024] Installation of the gripping component: A mounting bracket 10 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the support frame 12. The transfer box 9 is slidably assembled onto the mounting bracket 10, ensuring that it can move horizontally along the mounting bracket 10. Then, the power assembly is installed. A power box 11 (usually a servo motor or stepper motor with a reducer) is installed on the top surface of the mounting bracket 10. One end of the synchronous belt 13 is connected to the output end of the power box 11, and the other end is connected to the pulley at the other end of the mounting bracket 10. Adjust the timing belt 13 to reliably engage with the meshing interface (usually a timing belt clamp) on the transfer box 9. Core components: servo motor: provides precise power and position control; active timing pulley: mounted on the output shaft of the servo motor; driven timing pulley: connected to one end of the feed screw (usually still a high-precision ball screw); high-strength timing belt: a toothed rubber or polyurethane belt that meshes with the tooth grooves of the pulley to transmit motion and power. Working principle: servo motor rotates → driven by timing belt → drives precision ball screw to rotate → converts rotational motion into linear motion of the guide wheel frame.
[0025] At the bottom of the transfer box 9, two grippers 6 are fixedly installed. The distance between the two grippers 6 is adjusted so that they can accurately correspond to the positions of the workpiece support and the material boxes on both sides.
[0026] Installation of distribution box 14: Fix distribution box 14 in a suitable location reserved on base 1. All electrical wiring must be neatly planned and protected by cable trays or cable chains;
[0027] Finally, the workflow and debugging are performed. Initial state: the first feeding box 2 is full of workpieces to be processed, and the second feeding box 5 is empty or contains a different type of workpiece. The first receiving box 3 and the second receiving box 4 are empty, ready to receive processed workpieces. The gripper 6 is in the initial position. Loading process: the power box 11 starts, driving the transfer box 9 and the two grippers 6 to move above the first feeding box 2 via the synchronous belt 13. One of the grippers 6 descends and grips a workpiece to be processed. After gripping the workpiece, the power box 11 reverses its direction, moving the gripper assembly towards the workpiece support. Workpiece exchange and processing: when the gripper 6 holding the workpiece moves directly above the workpiece support, it descends and places the workpiece onto the workpiece support.
[0028] Driven by the drive wheel 8, the workpiece is ground. At the same time, another idle gripper 6 moves to the top of the second feed box 5 (assuming there is a workpiece to be exchanged at this position) or waits. Unloading process: After the first workpiece is processed, the gripper group moves again, and the idle gripper 6 can perform the next loading operation (retrieving the workpiece from the second feed box). The gripper 6 that has completed loading will move to the top of the workpiece support to grip the processed workpiece. Then, the gripper group carries the processed workpiece to the top of the first receiving box 3 and puts the workpiece into the first receiving box 3.
[0029] Cyclic operation: The above steps are repeated. The two grippers 6 move synchronously under the drive of the power unit, alternately completing a series of actions such as picking up materials from the feeding box, placing them on the workpiece support, picking up the processed parts from the workpiece support, and putting them back into the recycling box, so as to realize continuous automated production.
[0030] System debugging: Connect the power supply of the distribution box 14, and program the power box 11 to move distance and speed, as well as the gripping / releasing action sequence of the gripper 6, through the control system (such as PLC) to make it precisely match the processing cycle of the grinding machine.
[0031] Perform no-load and load testing to check whether each component operates smoothly, whether the positioning is accurate, and whether the clamping is reliable, and fine-tune the parameters according to the actual situation;
[0032] This implementation cleverly achieves continuous workpiece exchange and loading / unloading through a symmetrically arranged dual feeder and a gripping component with dual jaws, seamlessly integrating with the grinding process and greatly improving production efficiency. During installation, it is necessary to ensure the relative positional accuracy of each part and the overall structural stability; during the debugging phase, the action sequence must be meticulously planned.
