Patent Description:
Polishing wheels mainly use resin bonds and rubber bonds for edge polishing. Resin-bonded abrasive tools have high strength, good elasticity, poor heat resistance, and good self-drive property, but are small in porosity, easy to block, quick to wear, and can easily lose their profiles. Rubber-bonded abrasive tools have higher strength and elasticity, low porosity and poor heat resistance. The above-mentioned bonds have poor temperature resistance, and the bond strength will drop sharply with temperature increase, and is easy to suffer from changes such as softening, melting and carbonization, which destroy the structures, directly resulting in the failures of the performances of the abrasive tools, such as abrasive shedding, sharpness reduction, bond softening and melting to block pores, etc. Therefore, heat dissipation of working abrasive tools is a key to ensure their normal use. In many occasions, coolants such as water and emulsions are used to cool the abrasive tools. However, the existing methods for cooling abrasive tools still have some problems. The coolant has a poor cooling effect on abrasive tools with a temperature resistance of less than <NUM> when used for cooling. For situations where the contact area for grinding is relatively large, for example, the contact surface of a cup-shaped polishing wheel is relatively large when grinding, the coolant cannot smoothly enter a working surface, resulting in poor cooling effect. A bonding material is a poor heat conductor, such that local high temperature generated by the abrasive in the grinding process cannot be quickly transferred out to form a heat dissipation effect. Therefore, the local high temperature will greatly affect the transition zone properties of the abrasive and the bond, such that the poor combination of the abrasive and the bond directly leads to a sharp decline in the performance of the abrasive tool. In high-speed and high-efficiency machining, it is necessary to improve the grinding ability, which requires improved ability to hold the abrasive and better cooling. Increased elasticity and porosity are not conducive to the service life and rigidity. The various factors restrict one another, thus limiting the application of high-speed and high-efficiency machining. <CIT> discloses an emery cloth wheel comprises an annular plate body and a grinding mechanism glued on the annular plate body. The annular plate body is provided with a heat dissipation structure connected with its center. At the center of the body plate a fixing hole is arranged. The heat dissipation structure is composed of a plurality of blades equidistantly surrounding the fixing hole. Each blade comprises an upper and a lower portion, this is to form a tooth-saw structure to lead the coolant. <CIT> discloses a diamond tool, comprising a circular core plate and a cutting segment attached to the outer surface of the core plate. The cutting segment comprises a plurality of abrasive particles dispersed within the holding body and non-abrasive segments are embedded in the holding body in a symmetric manner. The non-abrasive segments guide the workpiece to impact the abrasive segments in a smaller angle to increase the service life of the diamond tool. <CIT> discloses a polishing wheel, comprising a plurality of block-shaped polishing pads arranged in close contact with each other. The first polishing pad extends towards the center of the polishing wheel. A plurality of second polishing pads forming do not extend to the center of the polishing wheel, forms the gap in shape of a triangular cross-section between the first polishing pads. <CIT> discloses a grinding wheel which includes: a rotatable support plate provided at the central portion thereof with a mounting hole, in which a rotational shaft of the grinder is mounted; and the grinding member in which the sand paper piece and the diamond paper piece are alternately attached to a top surface of the rotatable support plate. Only bottom surfaces of the sand paper piece and the diamond paper piece constituting the grinding wheel are attached to the top surface of the rotatable support plate in such a manner that the sand paper piece and the diamond paper piece are arranged perpendicularly to the top surface of the rotatable support plate, so that the sand paper piece and the diamond paper piece of the grinding member have a buffer power in a marching work to perform the machining work without the vibration.

As shown in <FIG>, a polishing device includes a plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM>. The plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> is sequentially spliced and stacked to form an annular structure. Every two adjacent elastic thin teeth <NUM> are closely abutted. An upper end face of the annular structure is a grinding working surface <NUM>. The grinding working surface <NUM> is of an annular saw-toothed structure. The polishing device also includes a substrate <NUM> having an annular structure and a pressing plate <NUM>. The annular structure formed by the plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> is fixed on the substrate <NUM>. The pressing plate <NUM> is placed in the annular structure, is connected to the substrate <NUM> by a bolt, and squeezes the plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM>.

The substrate <NUM> is provided with a limiting groove <NUM> arranged along an inner edge of the substrate <NUM>. Lower parts of the plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> are embedded in the limiting groove <NUM>. An end surface of the pressing plate <NUM> close to the elastic thin teeth <NUM> is inclined, and is matched and close to end surfaces of the elastic thin teeth <NUM> to limit the plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM>.

The plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> is displaced from a radial direction of the annular structure.

Every two adjacent elastic thin teeth <NUM> are fixedly connected by gluing and/or by a fastener. The plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> is made of a rubber bond polyurethane material.

The size of the polishing device in this embodiment is as follows. The diameter of the polishing device is <NUM>. The inner diameter of the polishing device is <NUM>. The annular width of the polishing device is <NUM>. The height of the polishing device is <NUM>. The height of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> is <NUM>. The height of the upper part of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> is <NUM>. The height of the lower part of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> is <NUM>. The number of the elastic thin teeth <NUM> is specifically <NUM>. The average circumferential tooth width of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> is: (150π/<NUM>+102π/<NUM>)/<NUM>=<NUM>. A ratio of the radial length of <NUM> of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> to the average circumferential tooth width of <NUM> of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> is <NUM> times.

Upper parts or side walls of the plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> are made of an abrasive layer. The plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> includes a plurality of elastic thin teeth A and a plurality of elastic thin teeth B. The plurality of elastic thin teeth A and the plurality of elastic thin teeth B are arranged in a staggered manner. Alternatively, the plurality of elastic thin teeth A and one elastic thin teeth B are arranged in a staggered manner. Alternatively, the plurality of elastic thin teeth A constitutes a group of elastic thin teeth A, the plurality of elastic thin teeth B constitutes a group of elastic thin teeth B, and the group of elastic thin teeth A and the group of elastic thin teeth B are arranged in a staggered manner. Upper parts of the plurality of elastic thin teeth A and upper parts of the plurality of elastic thin teeth B form an annular saw-toothed structure. The elastic thin teeth A are made of a first bond and a first abrasive. The elastic thin teeth B are made of a second bond and a second abrasive. The elastic thin teeth A made of the first bond and the first abrasive have high hardness and long service life. The elastic thin teeth B made of the second bond and the second abrasive are highly elastic and easy to deform. The comprehensive effect can meet the cooling requirements of high-pressure machining. Meanwhile, the polishing device has a longer service life.

The mechanism of the annular saw-toothed structure is as follows. A plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> is sequentially spliced and stacked to form an annular structure. The annular structure is rotated and the grinding working surface <NUM> of the annular structure is shaped and sharpened. When the grinding working surface <NUM> is shaped and sharpened, the grinding working surface <NUM> is elastically deformed and the elastic thin teeth <NUM> are deflected and displaced by forces, so that the working surface of a single elastic thin tooth is inclined, and the grinding working surface <NUM> shows an annular saw-toothed structure.

The working principle is as follows. When the polishing device is working, the engagement is small. The height of the tip to the root of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> is generally much greater than the engagement. When the grinding part of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> is only partly in contact with a workpiece <NUM>, the tips of the plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> constitute a small amount of intermittent grinding, that is, impact grinding. A first gap <NUM> appears between the workpiece <NUM> and the grinding part of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> that has not yet contacted the workpiece <NUM>. Cooling water penetrates through the first gap <NUM> under a centrifugal force, which improves the timely cooling of the grinding working surface <NUM>.

When the grinding part of the single elastic thin tooth <NUM> has all contacted the workpiece <NUM>, the single elastic thin tooth <NUM> is subjected to a grinding positive force and tangential force. The position and size of the single elastic thin tooth <NUM> when it is stressed and the area and pressure when it is in contact with the workpiece <NUM> are constantly changing. As a result, the single elastic thin tooth <NUM> is slightly deflected and displaced, but the amounts of change of adjacent elastic thin teeth <NUM> are different. In this case, a second gap <NUM> appears between the stressed elastic thin teeth <NUM>. Cooling water penetrates through the second gap <NUM> under a centrifugal force, which improves the timely cooling of the grinding working surface <NUM>. Thus, intermittent grinding machining of the polishing device is realized, and good machining quality and high efficiency are achieved.

Compared with existing technical solutions, the present invention has the following advantages.

The polishing device using the polyurethane material bond in the prior art is annular as a whole. When high-speed and high-efficiency polishing is performed, the temperature of a grinding area is greatly increased. The temperature resistance of the polyurethane material bond is poor, and the bond strength will decrease sharply as the temperature increases and will easily cause changes such as softening, melting and carbonization, which destroy the structures, directly resulting in the failures in the performances of an abrasive tool, such as abrasive shedding, decreased sharpness, and bond softening and melting to block pores. Even if a workpiece can withstand the influence of temperature, the polishing device needs to improve the grinding ability, which requires better ability to hold the abrasive and better cooling. Increased elasticity and porosity are not conducive to the service life and rigidity. Various factors are contradictory and restrict each other, thus limiting the application of high-speed and high-efficiency machining.

This embodiment provides better chip holding and cooling functions, and transfers the functions required by the original polishing wheel body to structural functions. While meeting the self-sharpening properties, the porosity and elasticity of the abrasive tool can be appropriately reduced, and the ability to hold the abrasive can be improved, which can help prolong the service life of the abrasive tool and expand the application of high-speed and high-efficiency machining. The difficulty of product manufacturing process is also reduced, and fast chip removal, good cooling, easy manufacturing, and greatly improved performance are achieved.

As shown in <FIG>, a polishing device includes a plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM>. The plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> is sequentially spliced and stacked to form an annular structure. Every two adjacent elastic thin teeth <NUM> are closely abutted. An annular side surface of the annular structure is a grinding working surface <NUM>. The grinding working surface <NUM> is of an annular saw-toothed structure. The polishing device also includes a substrate <NUM> having an annular structure, and a pressing plate <NUM>. The annular structure formed by the plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> is fixed on the substrate <NUM>. The pressing plate <NUM> is placed in the annular structure, is connected to the substrate <NUM> by a bolt, and squeezes the plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM>. The plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> is fixed on the substrate <NUM> using auxiliary parts or adhesives.

The substrate <NUM> is provided with a limiting groove <NUM> arranged along an inner edge of the substrate <NUM>. Lower parts of the plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> are embedded in the limiting groove <NUM>. An end surface of the pressing plate <NUM> close to the elastic thin teeth <NUM> is inclined, and is matched and close to end surfaces of the elastic thin teeth <NUM> to limit the plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> and prevent the plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> from flying out during the grinding process.

The two adjacent elastic thin teeth <NUM> are fixedly connected by gluing and/or by a fastener.

The size of the polishing device of this embodiment is as follows. The diameter of the polishing device is <NUM>. The annular width of the effective annular structure of the polishing device is <NUM>. The thickness of the polishing device is <NUM>, which is suitable for machining a workpiece <NUM> with a shaped edge of a maximum thickness of <NUM>. The polishing device post-processes an opening shape with an appropriate thickness. The number of teeth of the polishing device is <NUM> teeth. The average circumferential tooth working width is: (150π/<NUM>+70π/<NUM>)/<NUM>=<NUM>. A ratio of the effective radial length of <NUM> of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> to the average circumferential tooth width of <NUM> of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> is <NUM> times.

The working principle is as follows. Within a certain range, when the pressure becomes larger, the elastic thin teeth <NUM> will deflect and displace and a second gap <NUM> that appears between the elastic thin teeth <NUM> is also large. Cooling water penetrates through the second gap <NUM> under a centrifugal force, which improves the timely cooling of the grinding working surface <NUM> of the polishing device. When the pressure is small, a first gap <NUM> is formed between the workpiece <NUM> and a grinding part of the elastic thin tooth <NUM> that has not yet contacted the workpiece <NUM>. Cooling water penetrates through the first gap <NUM> under a centrifugal force, which improves the timely cooling of the grinding working surface <NUM>.

When the grinding part of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> is in contact with the workpiece <NUM>, the tips of the plurality of elastic thin teeth <NUM> constitute a small amount of intermittent grinding, and the elastic thin teeth <NUM> is subjected to a grinding positive force and tangential force. The position and size of a single elastic thin tooth <NUM> when it is stressed and the area and pressure when it is in contact with the workpiece <NUM> are constantly changing. As a result, the single elastic thin tooth <NUM> is slightly deflected and displaced, but the amounts of changes of adjacent elastic thin teeth <NUM> are different, such that the first gap <NUM> and the second gap <NUM> continue to appear. The polishing device achieves intermittent grinding machining, good machining quality and high efficiency.

Compared with prior art products, the present invention has the following advantages.

The technical solution of this embodiment simplifies the manufacturing process, realizes the overall presetting of the elastic thin teeth <NUM> that are difficult to manufacture, realizes a narrow tooth structure that greatly shortens the chip discharge path, and achieves the structural functions of the first gap <NUM> and the second gap <NUM> for rapid cooling. Dense internal water cooling in a grinding area is realized, and the product performance of the polishing device is greatly improved.

The annular structure is rotated, and a grinding working surface <NUM> of the annular structure is shaped and sharpened, so that the grinding working surface <NUM> has an annular saw-teeth structure.

In the above embodiment, a ratio of an average radial length of each elastic thin tooth <NUM> to an average circumferential width thereof in step S1 is greater than <NUM> times.
