Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for fine grinding of pre-machined, annular disk-shaped metallic workpieces, in particular of motor vehicle brake disks with a brake disk cup and an annular disk-shaped brake disk ring, in which a workpiece holder is driven in rotation about a workpiece holder axis and a grinding tool holder from a drive shaft about a workpiece holder axis essentially parallel grinding tool holder axis is driven in rotation.
  • the invention furthermore relates to a device for carrying out the method according to the invention.
  • Pre-processing of the annular disk-shaped workpieces, in particular the motor vehicle brake disks means in the context of the invention that the workpieces have their final design geometry, in particular with regard to the thickness of the disks and the parallelism of the disk surfaces, by machining, eg. B. have experienced on a lathe.
  • This cutting shape has left processing marks on the surface, for example spiraling processing marks.
  • these interfere from a functional point of view. They interfere in particular with motor vehicle brake disks and impair the reproducibility and safety of the braking process. Corrective fine grinding of the pre-machined workpieces in the form of annular disks is therefore generally required.
  • the grinding tool holder is acted upon by a central helical spring, which presses the ring with the ball-joint-shaped design against the joint ball.
  • the joint ball shows two diametrically opposite pins, which are arranged orthogonal to the axis of the drive shaft and are guided in elongated holes in the sleeve-shaped hub. In this way, the grinding tool holder is pressed back during the grinding process under the influence of the grinding pressure against the action of the coil spring.
  • the ball joint loses its joint function during the grinding process: the joint ball released from the ring with the shape of a spherical joint shell can move in an uncontrolled manner according to the fit of its pins in the elongated holes, if only within narrow limits.
  • the invention is based on the technical problem of specifying a method of the type mentioned at the outset with which the machined is achieved in a relatively inexpensive manner Workpieces with regard to the machined surfaces also meet extremely high quality requirements. Furthermore, the invention is based on the technical problem of specifying a device for carrying out the method according to the invention.
  • the invention teaches a method for the fine grinding of pre-machined, annular disk-shaped metallic workpieces, in particular.
  • Motor vehicle brake disks with a brake disk cup and an annular disk-shaped brake disk ring in which a workpiece holder is driven in rotation about a workpiece holder axis and a grinding tool holder from a drive shaft around one Workpiece holder axis is driven essentially parallel to the grinding tool holder axis, in which work is carried out with a grinding tool designed as a ring tool with an annular grindstone and in which the ring tool is subjected to a ball joint-free sequence control on the workpiece to be ground and, in addition, is resiliently flexible on the drive shaft of the grinding tool holder is connected so that the workpiece holder axis and the grinding tool holder axis are skewed to each other by the sequence control lll be.
  • a ring tool designed as a pot tool is used.
  • the invention is based on the surprising fact that a particularly precise and functionally reliable fine grinding is achieved within the scope of the method according to the invention, which leads to high surface qualities of the machined tools, without the fact that structures are only produced by the fine grinding process when the ring tool is connected to a ball joint-free sequence control subject to the workpiece to be ground and for this purpose is connected to the drive shaft of the grinding tool holder in a fully elastic manner.
  • the ring tool is subjected to a sequential control on the workpiece to be ground, it is expressed that the surface of the ring-shaped workpiece performs the orientation or deflection of the ring tool that is possible due to the resilience which is elastic on all sides, in accordance with its surface inaccuracies.
  • the ring tool is floating as it were due to the elastic flexibility on all sides and guides itself on the surface to be ground.
  • the fact that the workpiece-receiving axis and the grinding tool-receiving axis can be placed skewed to one another due to the all-round elastic compliance means that the grinding tool-receiving axis with respect to the elastic compliance in all spatial directions.
  • the workpiece holder axis can be tilted. Windschief means that the orientations of the grinding tool holder axis are not determined by one or a few planes. In the method according to the invention, the grinding tool holder axis can be referenced.
  • the axis of the drive shaft for the grinding tool holder can be arranged as desired on the conical surface, the maximum angle between the conical surface and the Axis of the drive shaft is determined by the degree of elastic compliance.
  • the number of degrees of flexibility or freedom of movement of the grinding tool holder is considerably increased in comparison to the known measures, and constraints that can lead to the generation of disruptive structures during the fine grinding process are avoided.
  • the fact that the ring tool is flexibly and flexibly connected to the drive shaft of the grinding tool receptacle effectively prevents loose seating of the ring tool and the associated uncontrolled movements and resulting chatter mark-like structures on the machined surfaces.
  • the grinding tool is not a full-surface grinding wheel, but rather a ring tool with an annular grindstone, in the preferred embodiment of the invention a pot tool. Due to the resilience of the ring tool, which is elastic on all sides, it is also achieved that wear of the grinding surface of the grinding stone takes place only relatively slowly and the method thus ensures a relatively long service life of the grinding tool. If the ring tool protrudes beyond the workpiece, the ring tool is also self-sharpened. In this respect, the method according to the invention is also characterized by particular economy.
  • the invention also relates to an apparatus for carrying out the method described, with a workpiece holder axis rotating workpiece holder and a grinding tool holder connected to a drive shaft and rotating around a grinding tool holder axis which is essentially parallel to the workpiece holder axis, in which the grinding tool is a ring tool with an annular grindstone which, during the grinding process, protrudes outside over the edge of the ring-shaped workpiece , in which rubber-elastic supporting elements are arranged between the ring tool and the end face of the drive shaft for the grinding tool receptacle, in which the drive shaft for the grinding tool holder has a central round pin on its end face, which grips through the rubber-elastic supporting elements and surrounds it in a recess of the ring tool with radial play and in which the ring tool is attached to the inside of the ring with the interposition of rubber-elastic elements on the end face of the round pin.
  • the rubber-elastic support elements between the ring tool and the end face of the drive shaft are preferably an annular disk which surrounds the central round pin.
  • the ring tool is designed as a pot tool and at least one mounting plate covering the recess of the ring tool is provided on the inside of the cup, which is attached to the end face of the round pin with the interposition of the rubber-elastic elements likewise covering the recess.
  • the attachment to the round pin is expediently carried out with one on the axis the drive shaft arranged screw.
  • the rubber-elastic elements then preferably consist of an annular disk which surrounds the screw.
  • the invention also relates to a further embodiment of a device for carrying out the method according to the invention, in which the ring tool is constructed from a tool carrier and the annular grinding stone fastened thereon, in which rubber-elastic supporting elements are arranged between the tool carrier and the end face of the drive shaft for the grinding tool holder, in which a central round pin on the end face of the drive shaft grips through the rubber-elastic supporting elements and surrounds them in a recess in the tool carrier with radial play and in which the tool carrier with the rubber-elastic supporting elements and at radial spacing from the round pin at regular angular intervals arranged fastening elements on the front side of the Drive shaft is attached, wherein the fasteners grasp the tool carrier with radial play and on the bearing surface between the fastener and Tool carriers are interposed rubber-elastic elements.
  • the fastening elements are expediently screws and the rubber-elastic elements are provided between the screw head and the tool carrier.
  • the rubber-elastic components used in the device according to the invention can be arranged under prestress. Their shore hardness is adapted to the special conditions.
  • the rubber-elastic components used in the context of the device according to the invention in connection with the radial play effectively achieve a resilience of the ring tool that is elastic on all sides.
  • the rubber-elastic support ensures that the ring tool or the grinding tool holder, in contrast to the known device (US 3,456,401), does not sit loosely on the drive shaft and thus there are no uncontrolled movements which produce chatter-mark-like structures on the machined surfaces.
  • the extent of the skewed orientation of the grinding tool mounting axis and workpiece mounting axis is determined on the one hand by the resilience of the rubber-elastic components and on the other hand by the radial play between the round pin and ring tool or between the fastening elements and tool holder.
  • the annular grindstone is designed as a closed slip ring.
  • the ring-shaped grindstone can also be designed in the form of individual slip ring sections and sections free of abrasive. Since, according to the teaching of the invention, the ring-shaped grindstone protrudes on the outside over the edge of the ring-shaped workpiece during the grinding process, a self-grinding process on the grindstone takes place when this rotating ring tool is placed on the surface of the already rotating workpiece to be ground. The result of this is that, in the device according to the invention, inaccuracies, even with a long operating time which are based on the fact that the ring tool is working through, cannot occur.

  • a grinding tool holder 4 is driven by a drive shaft 5 to rotate about a grinding tool holder axis substantially parallel to the workpiece holder axis.
  • a ring tool 6 with an annular grindstone 7 is used as the grinding tool, according to the preferred embodiment of the invention and the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1, a pot tool.
  • the ring-shaped grindstone protrudes on the outside over the edge of the ring-shaped workpiece.
  • the ring tool 6 is subjected to a ball joint-free sequence control on the workpiece 1 to be ground and is connected to the drive shaft 5 of the grinding tool holder 4 so that it is resilient on all sides so that the workpiece holder axis and the grinding tool holder axis can be set skewed to one another by the sequence control .
  • a possible orientation of the grinding tool holder axis is indicated by dashed lines in FIG. 1. The following measures are implemented in detail in the devices according to the invention:
  • rubber-elastic supporting elements 8 are arranged between the ring tool 6 and the end face of the drive shaft 5 for the grinding tool holder 4.
