Abstract:
1. A deep rolling machine for crankshafts that contains a rotary drive that rotates around an axis for a crankshaft to be deep rolled comprising: at least one deep rolling unit flexibly attached to a suspension system, a shear-type construction with a first and a second shearing arm rotatably connected to one another via a first rotating joint, said first and second shearing arms carry parts of a deep rolling tool with a work roller head and a support roller head at first ends of said first and second shearing arms, said work and support roller heads facing the axis opposite one another, said shearing arms are driven by a power unit on second ends of the shearing arms facing away from the axis; said suspension system can be moved along the axis of the rotary drive for the crankshaft and locked in position; said power unit has an opening width greater than twice a construction radius of the crankshaft to be deep rolled at the first ends of the two shearing arms, said power unit generates closing and opening movements and a deep rolling force by hinges connecting the second shearing arm to a first shank of a first crank lever, said first crank lever is attached via a second rotating joint to the suspension system, said second shank of the first crank lever is connected to a piston cylinder unit attached to the suspension system, the first end of the second shearing arm is supported via a roller on the suspension system, the power unit is articulately connected at a first end via a second crank lever to the second end of the second shearing arm via a third and fourth joint; the power unit is attached within a gate such that the power unit can move in a direction of force exertion; the power unit is articulately connected at its second end, via a fifth joint, to the second end of the first shearing arm; a free end of the gate is fit with a back up roller, said free end is routed along a curved web, defined by a gap at the second end of the first shearing arm; in the closed position of the deep rolling machine, the third, fourth and fifth joint form a triangle with one another, said third joint points to the first rotating joint; and said second crank lever reaches a limit stop at the second end of the second shearing arm.
