Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for automatic gap adjustment in vibratory finishing machines with turntable, wherein the gap width of a gap located between the turntable and a working container is adjusted by a control.
- a work container In vibratory finishing machines with a turntable, a work container is loaded with workpieces and possibly also with grinding wheels, which are rotated by the rotating turntable in rotary motion, being guided through the container water and detergent. Between the turntable and the stationary working container an annular gap is present, which may be in the range of, for example, about 0.2 mm to 0.8 mm.
- the gap is subjected to compressed air, so that the air pressure arising in the region of the gap can be measured on the pressure side.
- the pressure side in this case is understood that side of the gap, which is acted upon with compressed air.
- the supply of compressed air not only opens at one point directly into the gap. Rather, the annular gap is acted upon along its entire circumference from one side with compressed air.
- the reference position for the gap width of zero can then be defined as the relative position of the turntable and the working container which is present at this time.
- the relative position of the turntable and the working container is defined as the reference value for the gap width of zero, which is present when the measured air pressure has reached a predetermined limit value, for example a value of 150 mbar.
- the desired gap width ie the desired axial distance between the work container and turntable, so be regulated that this remains constant in operation.
- This control is preferably carried out without further measurement of the air pressure on the pressure side, namely exclusively via a temperature control by measuring the temperature in the gap region.
- an automated gap width control can be carried out extremely reliably and permanently, since the zero position required for the gap width control is determined extremely accurately, without damaging the work container and / or turntable.
- These two components are usually coated in practice with hot potted polyurethane, which could be permanently damaged if the turntable is set too tightly against the container.
- the turntable can be made comparatively gentle and this only until the predetermined limit value of the compressed air is reached, which defines the gap width of zero and the corresponding relative position of turntable and working container.
- the gap width of zero is first defined with the aid of the air pressure measurement in a first step, in which turntables and work containers are pressed tightly but not too strongly against one another.
- a desired gap width is then set in a second step without air pressure measurement.
- the gap width preferably takes place via a temperature control, in which the gap is increased or decreased in dependence on a temperature measured in the gap region.
- the change of the gap width however, always takes place in relation to the originally determined zero position, which was determined with the aid of the air pressure measurement carried out over the circumference of the annular gap.
- a new reference value for the gap width of zero can be defined after a predetermined operating time of the vibratory finishing machine has been reached and / or after a predetermined temperature change in the region of the gap has been reached.
- a temperature change can be caused on the one hand by changing the room temperature but also by changing the temperature of the working container and the turntable during operation, which is caused for example by different tempered process liquid. It may therefore be advantageous if the constant gap width is regulated exclusively taking into account a temperature measured in the region of the gap. Since both the material of container and turntable as well as the polyurethane coating expand with increasing temperature, the gap width would change during operation without a regulation taking into account the temperature. However, if the temperature in the area of the gap is detected, a temperature compensation can take place, so that when changing the temperature is adjusted by a certain value the gap width accordingly.
- the turntable can be moved by a hydraulic cylinder in the direction of the working container and also away from the working container. It may be advantageous to use a double-acting hydraulic cylinder, since then both the adjusting movement of the turntable to the working container as Also, the return movement of the turntable can be precisely controlled to set the desired gap width.
- the turntable is rotated by a belt drive in rotation.
- the entire drive motor does not have to be moved, so that the total weight of the moving unit is reduced and the construction is simplified.
- the axial stroke, i. the stroke of the turntable in the direction of the working container are compensated by the belt, so that the motor can be fixedly mounted on a machine frame and the axial stroke of the driven turntable is compensated by the belt.
- a measuring transducer can be used for measuring the air pressure, which is used during operation of the vibratory finishing machine as a liquid level sensor.
- a transducer that can detect pressures in liquid and also in gaseous media
- one and the same sensor can be used on the one hand for measuring the air pressure in the region of the gap and on the other hand as a measuring sensor for filling levels.
- the turntable and the working container are no longer moved toward one another relative to one another when the measured air pressure has reached a predetermined maximum value, which in particular is equal to the predetermined limit value. In this way it is ensured that when reaching the zero position of the turntable is not unnecessarily pressed against the work container, so that damage to these components is excluded.
- the contact force of the actuator can be monitored redundantly to prevent damage to the turntable and / or work container in case of failure of the air pressure sensor.
- this relates to a vibratory finishing machine with working container and turntable, in particular for carrying out a method of the type described above, wherein the gap width of a gap located between turntable and working container is set automatically.
- the vibratory finishing machine comprises an air pressure device, with which the gap can be acted upon with compressed air only to determine a gap width of zero.
- a pressure sensor is provided for detecting the air pressure arising in the region of the gap on the pressure side and an actuating drive serves to move the turntable and the working container relative to one another towards and away from one another.
- a control and regulating device is provided in which the reference position for a gap width of zero that relative position of turntable and working container is stored, which is present when the air pressure measured in the region of the gap on the pressure side a predetermined limit has reached.
- a control is implemented in the control and regulating device, with which a desired constant gap width on the basis of the stored relative position during operation of the vibratory finishing machine with the aid of the actuator is controlled, for example by a temperature control without using the air pressure sensor.
- a particularly precise and reproducible path measurement can be achieved by integrating a displacement sensor into the actuator, which moves the turntable and the working container relative to one another.
- the present invention will be described with reference to a vibratory finishing machine in which the turntable is moved relative to the working container and the annular gap from below, i. is pressurized from outside the inner volume of the working container with compressed air.
- the invention could also be implemented by the working container is moved or by the annular gap is acted upon from above with compressed air.
- Fig. 1 shows in partial section a vibratory finishing machine with an open at its top working container 10, which is closed at its bottom by a turntable 12, wherein between the lower container edge 14 and the upper edge 16 of the turntable 12, a circumferential annular gap 18 is present.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur automatischen Spalteinstellung bei Gleitschliffmaschinen mit Drehteller, wobei die Spaltweite eines zwischen dem Drehteller und einem Arbeitsbehälter befindlichen Spalts durch eine Regelung eingestellt wird.The present invention relates to a method for automatic gap adjustment in vibratory finishing machines with turntable, wherein the gap width of a gap located between the turntable and a working container is adjusted by a control.
Bei Gleitschliffmaschinen mit Drehteller wird ein Arbeitsbehälter mit Werkstücken und gegebenenfalls auch mit Schleifkörpern beladen, die durch den rotierenden Drehteller in Drehbewegung versetzt werden, wobei durch den Behälter Wasser und Reinigungsmittel geführt werden. Zwischen dem Drehteller und dem feststehenden Arbeitsbehälter ist ein Ringspalt vorhanden, der im Bereich von beispielsweise etwa 0,2 mm bis 0,8 mm liegen kann.In vibratory finishing machines with a turntable, a work container is loaded with workpieces and possibly also with grinding wheels, which are rotated by the rotating turntable in rotary motion, being guided through the container water and detergent. Between the turntable and the stationary working container an annular gap is present, which may be in the range of, for example, about 0.2 mm to 0.8 mm.
Da Veränderungen der Spaltweite einerseits den Flüssigkeitsdurchfluss beeinflussen und andererseits ein Verklemmen von Werkstücken oder Schleifkörpern hervorrufen können, ist es wünschenswert, eine voreingestellte Soll-Spaltweite während des Betriebs beizubehalten. Hierzu ist es aus dem Stand der Technik bereits bekannt, die Spaltweite durch eine Regelung automatisiert einzustellen. Allerdings hat sich in der Praxis gezeigt, dass eine solche automatisierte Spaltweiteneinstellung nicht dauerhaft zufriedenstellend funktioniert.Since changes in gap width, on the one hand, can affect fluid flow and, on the other hand, cause jamming of workpieces or abrasive articles, it is desirable to maintain a preset desired gap width during operation. For this purpose, it is already known from the prior art to automatically set the gap width by a control. However, it has been shown in practice that such automated gap width adjustment does not work permanently satisfactorily.

Es ist die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art und eine entsprechende Vorrichtung zu schaffen, mit denen eine dauerhaft zufriedenstellende Spaltweitenregelung erzielt werden kann.It is the object of the present invention to provide a method of the type mentioned and a corresponding device, with which a permanently satisfactory gap width control can be achieved.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt durch die Merkmale der unabhängigen Ansprüche.The solution of this object is achieved by the features of the independent claims.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wird zunächst in einem ersten Schritt zur Bestimmung einer Spaltweite von Null der Spalt mit Druckluft beaufschlagt, so dass der im Bereich des Spalts entstehende Luftdruck auf der Druckseite gemessen werden kann. Unter der Druckseite wird hierbei diejenige Seite des Spalts verstanden, die mit Druckluft beaufschlagt wird. Hierbei mündet die Zuführung der Druckluft nicht nur an einer Stelle direkt in den Spalt. Vielmehr wird der Ringspalt entlang seines gesamten Umfangs von einer Seite her mit Druckluft beaufschlagt.In the method according to the invention, first of all, in a first step for determining a gap width of zero, the gap is subjected to compressed air, so that the air pressure arising in the region of the gap can be measured on the pressure side. Under the pressure side in this case is understood that side of the gap, which is acted upon with compressed air. Here, the supply of compressed air not only opens at one point directly into the gap. Rather, the annular gap is acted upon along its entire circumference from one side with compressed air.
Nach Beaufschlagung mit Druckluft können Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter relativ zueinander aufeinander zu bewegt werden, so dass sich der Spalt zunehmend schließt. Hierdurch steigt auf der Druckseite der gemessene Luftdruck an. Mit zunehmendem Anstellen des Drehtellers an den Behälter (oder umgekehrt) schließt sich der Spalt zunehmend, bis der gemessene Luftdruck einen vorbestimmten Grenzwert erreicht hat, bei dem keine oder nahezu keine Luft mehr durch den Spalt gelangt. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt kann dann als Referenzwert für die Spaltweite von Null diejenige Relativposition von Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter definiert werden, die zu diesem Zeitpunkt vorhanden ist. Mit anderen Worten wird als Referenzwert für die Spaltweite von Null diejenige Relativposition von Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter definiert, die vorhanden ist, wenn der gemessene Luftdruck einen vorbestimmten Grenzwert erreicht hat, beispielsweise einen Wert von 150 mbar. Hierdurch ist sichergestellt, dass die beiden Bauteile zwar dicht aneinander anliegen, dass diese jedoch nicht übermäßig stark aneinander gepresst werden und sich beispielsweise im Bereich einer Beschichtung verformen. Auf Grundlage dieser definierten Relativposition, d.h. des ermittelten Abstands zwischen Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter bei Erreichen des vorbestimmten Grenzwertes, kann dann in einem zweiten Schritt die gewünschte Spaltweite, d.h. der gewünschte axiale Abstand zwischen Arbeitsbehälter und Drehteller, so geregelt werden, dass diese im Betrieb konstant bleibt. Diese Regelung erfolgt bevorzugt ohne weitere Messung des Luftdrucks auf der Druckseite, nämlich ausschließlich über eine Temperaturregelung durch Messung der Temperatur im Spaltbereich.After exposure to compressed air turntable and work container can be moved towards each other towards each other, so that the gap closes increasingly. As a result, the measured air pressure rises on the pressure side. As the turntable advances to the container (or vice versa), the gap closes progressively until the measured air pressure has reached a predetermined limit at which no or nearly no air passes through the nip. At this point in time, the reference position for the gap width of zero can then be defined as the relative position of the turntable and the working container which is present at this time. In other words, the relative position of the turntable and the working container is defined as the reference value for the gap width of zero, which is present when the measured air pressure has reached a predetermined limit value, for example a value of 150 mbar. This ensures that the two components but close to each other, but that they are not excessively pressed together and deform, for example, in the region of a coating. On the basis of this defined relative position, ie the determined distance between turntable and working container when reaching the predetermined limit, then in a second step, the desired gap width, ie the desired axial distance between the work container and turntable, so be regulated that this remains constant in operation. This control is preferably carried out without further measurement of the air pressure on the pressure side, namely exclusively via a temperature control by measuring the temperature in the gap region.
Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren lässt sich eine automatisierte Spaltweitenregelung außerordentlich zuverlässig und dauerhaft durchführen, da die für die Spaltweitenregelung erforderliche Nullposition äußerst genau ermittelt wird, ohne dass dabei Arbeitsbehälter und/oder Drehteller beschädigt werden. Diese beiden Bauteile sind in der Praxis üblicherweise mit heiß vergossenem Polyurethan beschichtet, das bei einem zu starken Anstellen des Drehtellers an den Behälter dauerhaft beschädigt werden könnte. Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren kann der Drehteller jedoch vergleichsweise sanft angestellt werden und dies nur so lange, bis der vorbestimmte Grenzwert der Druckluft erreicht ist, der die Spaltweite von Null und die entsprechende Relativposition von Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter definiert.With the method according to the invention, an automated gap width control can be carried out extremely reliably and permanently, since the zero position required for the gap width control is determined extremely accurately, without damaging the work container and / or turntable. These two components are usually coated in practice with hot potted polyurethane, which could be permanently damaged if the turntable is set too tightly against the container. With the method according to the invention, however, the turntable can be made comparatively gentle and this only until the predetermined limit value of the compressed air is reached, which defines the gap width of zero and the corresponding relative position of turntable and working container.
Weiterhin kann mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren auch ein Verschleiß von Drehteller und/oder Arbeitsbehälter kompensiert werden, da durch erneutes Erfassen und Definieren der Nulllage auch dann eine gewünschte Spaltweite exakt geregelt werden kann, wenn sich die Spaltflächen durch Verschleiß verändert haben sollten.Furthermore, with the inventive method also wear of turntable and / or work container can be compensated because even by re-detecting and defining the zero position, a desired gap width can be controlled exactly when the gap surfaces should have changed by wear.
Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen zweistufigen Verfahren wird zunächst mit Hilfe der Luftdruckmessung in einem ersten Schritt ausschließlich die Spaltweite von Null definiert, bei der Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter zwar dicht aber nicht zu stark aneinander gepresst aneinander anliegen. Ausgehend von dieser Nullstellung wird dann in einem zweiten Schritt ohne Luftdruckmessung eine gewünschte Spaltbreite eingestellt. Die Regelung der Spaltbreite erfolgt bevorzugt über eine Temperaturregelung, bei der in Abhängigkeit von einer im Spaltbereich gemessenen Temperatur der Spalt vergrößert oder verkleinert wird. Die Änderung der Spaltbreite erfolgt aber stets in Relation zu der ursprünglich festgelegten Nullstellung, die mit Hilfe der über den Umfang des Ringspalts durchgeführten Luftdruckmessung ermittelt wurde.With the two-stage process according to the invention, only the gap width of zero is first defined with the aid of the air pressure measurement in a first step, in which turntables and work containers are pressed tightly but not too strongly against one another. Starting from this zero position, a desired gap width is then set in a second step without air pressure measurement. The regulation The gap width preferably takes place via a temperature control, in which the gap is increased or decreased in dependence on a temperature measured in the gap region. The change of the gap width, however, always takes place in relation to the originally determined zero position, which was determined with the aid of the air pressure measurement carried out over the circumference of the annular gap.
Da die Relativposition zwischen Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter durch einen Wegmesssensor ermittelt wird, ist bei einer automatisierten Regelung eine reproduzierbare und wiederholbare Positionserfassung möglich.Since the relative position between turntable and work container is determined by a Wegmesssensor, reproducible and repeatable position detection is possible with an automated control.
Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sind in der Beschreibung, der Zeichnung sowie den Unteransprüchen beschrieben.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are described in the description, the drawings and the subclaims.
Nach einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann ein neuer Referenzwert für die Spaltbreite von Null definiert werden, nachdem eine vorbestimmte Betriebsdauer der Gleitschliffmaschine erreicht worden ist und/oder nachdem eine vorbestimmte Temperaturänderung im Bereich des Spalts erreicht worden ist. Eine solche Temperaturänderung kann einerseits durch Änderung der Raumtemperatur aber auch durch Temperaturänderung des Arbeitsbehälters und des Drehtellers während des Betriebs verursacht sein, die z.B. durch unterschiedlich temperierte Prozessflüssigkeit verursacht ist. Es kann deshalb vorteilhaft sein, wenn die konstante Spaltweite ausschließlich unter Berücksichtigung einer im Bereich des Spalts gemessenen Temperatur geregelt wird. Da sich sowohl das Material von Behälter und Drehteller wie auch die Polyurethanbeschichtung bei zunehmender Temperatur ausdehnen, würde sich ohne eine Regelung unter Berücksichtigung der Temperatur die Spaltweite im Betrieb verändern. Wenn allerdings die Temperatur im Bereich des Spalts erfasst wird, kann eine Temperaturkompensation erfolgen, so dass bei Veränderung der Temperatur um einen bestimmten Wert die Spaltweite entsprechend nachgestellt wird.According to an advantageous embodiment, a new reference value for the gap width of zero can be defined after a predetermined operating time of the vibratory finishing machine has been reached and / or after a predetermined temperature change in the region of the gap has been reached. Such a temperature change can be caused on the one hand by changing the room temperature but also by changing the temperature of the working container and the turntable during operation, which is caused for example by different tempered process liquid. It may therefore be advantageous if the constant gap width is regulated exclusively taking into account a temperature measured in the region of the gap. Since both the material of container and turntable as well as the polyurethane coating expand with increasing temperature, the gap width would change during operation without a regulation taking into account the temperature. However, if the temperature in the area of the gap is detected, a temperature compensation can take place, so that when changing the temperature is adjusted by a certain value the gap width accordingly.
Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann der Drehteller durch einen Hydraulikzylinder in Richtung des Arbeitsbehälters und auch von dem Arbeitsbehälter weg bewegt werden. Hierbei kann es vorteilhaft sein, einen doppelt wirkenden Hydraulikzylinder einzusetzen, da dann sowohl die Anstellbewegung des Drehtellers an den Arbeitsbehälter wie auch die Rückführbewegung des Drehtellers zur Einstellung der gewünschten Spaltweite präzise gesteuert werden kann.According to a further advantageous embodiment, the turntable can be moved by a hydraulic cylinder in the direction of the working container and also away from the working container. It may be advantageous to use a double-acting hydraulic cylinder, since then both the adjusting movement of the turntable to the working container as Also, the return movement of the turntable can be precisely controlled to set the desired gap width.
Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform wird der Drehteller durch einen Riemenantrieb in Drehung versetzt. Auf diese Weise muss nicht der gesamte Antriebsmotor bewegt werden, so dass das Gesamtgewicht der bewegten Einheit reduziert und die Konstruktion vereinfacht ist. Weiterhin kann durch Verwendung eines Riemenantriebs der Axialhub, d.h. der Hub des Drehtellers in Richtung Arbeitsbehälter durch den Riemen kompensiert werden, so dass der Motor feststehend auf einem Maschinengestell montiert werden kann und der Axialhub des angetriebenen Drehtellers durch den Riemen kompensiert wird.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the turntable is rotated by a belt drive in rotation. In this way, the entire drive motor does not have to be moved, so that the total weight of the moving unit is reduced and the construction is simplified. Furthermore, by using a belt drive, the axial stroke, i. the stroke of the turntable in the direction of the working container are compensated by the belt, so that the motor can be fixedly mounted on a machine frame and the axial stroke of the driven turntable is compensated by the belt.
Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann zur Messung des Luftdrucks ein Messwandler verwendet werden, der bei einem Betrieb der Gleitschliffmaschine als Flüssigkeitsstandsensor verwendet wird. Somit kann bei Einsatz eines Messwandlers, der Drücke in flüssigen und auch in gasförmigen Medien erfassen kann, ein und derselbe Sensor einerseits für die Messung des Luftdrucks im Bereich des Spalts und andererseits als Messsensor für Füllstandshöhen herangezogen werden.According to a further advantageous embodiment, a measuring transducer can be used for measuring the air pressure, which is used during operation of the vibratory finishing machine as a liquid level sensor. Thus, when using a transducer that can detect pressures in liquid and also in gaseous media, one and the same sensor can be used on the one hand for measuring the air pressure in the region of the gap and on the other hand as a measuring sensor for filling levels.
Es kann vorteilhaft sein, wenn nach einer Betriebsunterbrechung vorbestimmter Dauer vor neuerlicher Inbetriebnahme automatisch zunächst erneut ein Referenzwert für eine Spaltweite von Null ermittelt wird.It may be advantageous if, after a service interruption of a predetermined duration before a new startup, a reference value for a gap width of zero is automatically determined again.
Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform werden Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter nicht mehr relativ zueinander aufeinander zu bewegt, wenn der gemessene Luftdruck einen vorbestimmten Maximalwert erreicht hat, der insbesondere gleich dem vorbestimmten Grenzwert ist. Auf diese Weise ist sichergestellt, dass bei Erreichen der Nulllage der Drehteller nicht unnötig gegen den Arbeitsbehälter angedrückt wird, so dass eine Beschädigung dieser Bauteile ausgeschlossen ist.According to a further advantageous embodiment, the turntable and the working container are no longer moved toward one another relative to one another when the measured air pressure has reached a predetermined maximum value, which in particular is equal to the predetermined limit value. In this way it is ensured that when reaching the zero position of the turntable is not unnecessarily pressed against the work container, so that damage to these components is excluded.
Zu diesem Zweck kann auch die Anstellkraft des Stellantriebs redundant überwacht werden, um bei einem Ausfall des Luftdrucksensors eine Beschädigung von Drehteller und/oder Arbeitsbehälter zu verhindern.For this purpose, the contact force of the actuator can be monitored redundantly to prevent damage to the turntable and / or work container in case of failure of the air pressure sensor.
Nach einem weiteren Aspekt der Erfindung betrifft diese eine Gleitschliffmaschine mit Arbeitsbehälter und Drehteller, insbesondere zur Durchführung eines Verfahrens der vorstehend beschriebenen Art, wobei die Spaltweite eines zwischen Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter befindlichen Spalts automatisch eingestellt wird. Die Gleitschliffmaschine umfasst eine Luftdruckeinrichtung, mit der nur zur Bestimmung einer Spaltweite von Null der Spalt mit Druckluft beaufschlagbar ist. Zum Erfassen des im Bereich des Spalts auf der Druckseite entstehenden Luftdrucks ist ein Drucksensor vorgesehen und ein Stellantrieb dient dazu, Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter relativ zueinander aufeinander zu und voneinander weg zu bewegen. Zur Einstellung einer konstanten vorbestimmten Spaltweite ist eine Steuer- und Regeleinrichtung vorgesehen, in der als Referenzwert für eine Spaltweite von Null diejenige Relativposition von Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter abspeicherbar ist, die vorhanden ist, wenn der im Bereich des Spalts auf der Druckseite gemessene Luftdruck einen vorbestimmten Grenzwert erreicht hat. Schließlich ist in der Steuer- und Regeleinrichtung eine Regelung implementiert, mit der eine gewünschte konstante Spaltbreite auf Grundlage der abgespeicherten Relativposition während des Betriebs der Gleitschliffmaschine mit Hilfe des Stellantriebs regelbar ist, beispielsweise durch eine Temperaturregelung ohne Verwendung des Luftdrucksensors.According to a further aspect of the invention, this relates to a vibratory finishing machine with working container and turntable, in particular for carrying out a method of the type described above, wherein the gap width of a gap located between turntable and working container is set automatically. The vibratory finishing machine comprises an air pressure device, with which the gap can be acted upon with compressed air only to determine a gap width of zero. For detecting the air pressure arising in the region of the gap on the pressure side, a pressure sensor is provided and an actuating drive serves to move the turntable and the working container relative to one another towards and away from one another. To set a constant predetermined gap width, a control and regulating device is provided in which the reference position for a gap width of zero that relative position of turntable and working container is stored, which is present when the air pressure measured in the region of the gap on the pressure side a predetermined limit has reached. Finally, a control is implemented in the control and regulating device, with which a desired constant gap width on the basis of the stored relative position during operation of the vibratory finishing machine with the aid of the actuator is controlled, for example by a temperature control without using the air pressure sensor.
Eine besonders präzise und reproduzierbare Wegmessung kann dadurch erreicht werden, dass ein Wegmesssensor in den Stellantrieb integriert ist, der Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter relativ zueinander bewegt.A particularly precise and reproducible path measurement can be achieved by integrating a displacement sensor into the actuator, which moves the turntable and the working container relative to one another.

Nachfolgend wird die vorliegende Erfindung anhand einer Gleitschliffmaschine beschrieben, bei welcher der Drehteller relativ zu dem Arbeitsbehälter bewegt wird und der Ringspalt von unten, d.h. von außerhalb des Innenvolumens des Arbeitsbehälters mit Druckluft beaufschlagt wird. Grundsätzlich könnte die Erfindung jedoch auch umgesetzt werden, indem der Arbeitsbehälter bewegt wird oder indem der Ringspalt von oben mit Druckluft beaufschlagt wird.Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to a vibratory finishing machine in which the turntable is moved relative to the working container and the annular gap from below, i. is pressurized from outside the inner volume of the working container with compressed air. In principle, however, the invention could also be implemented by the working container is moved or by the annular gap is acted upon from above with compressed air.
Der Arbeitsbehälter 10 ist auf einem (nicht dargestellten) Maschinengestell fest montiert, während der Drehteller 12 mit Hilfe eines (ebenfalls nicht dargestellten) Motors um seine Mittelachse A rotiert werden kann. Hierzu ist der Drehteller 12 mit seiner Welle 20 in einem auf dem Maschinengestell montierten Axiallager 22 drehbar gelagert, wobei die Welle 20 mit Hilfe eines doppelt wirkenden Hydraulikzylinders 24 entlang der Rotationsachse A in Richtung des Arbeitsbehälters 10 und von diesem weg bewegt werden kann. Mit anderen Worten kann mit Hilfe des durch den Hydraulikzylinder 24 verwirklichten Stellantriebs der Drehteller 12 relativ zu dem Arbeitsbehälter 10 bewegt werden, so dass Drehteller und Arbeitsbehälter relativ zueinander aufeinander zu und voneinander weg bewegbar sind.The
Unterhalb des Drehtellers 12 befindet sich ein mit dem Maschinengestell fest verbundenes Lagerteil 26, das zusammen mit dem Drehteller 12 einen geschlossenen Raum 28 bildet, durch den bei geöffnetem Ringspalt 18 Flüssigkeit abfließen kann. Der Raum 28 ist mit einem Flüssigkeitsbehälter 30 verbunden, in dem sich ein Messwandler 32 befindet, der im Betrieb der Gleitschliffmaschine als Flüssigkeitsstandsensor verwendet wird, der jedoch auch in der Lage ist, den im Raum 28 vorhandenen Luftdruck zu messen. Der Raum 28 kann über ein - nicht dargestelltes - Ventil entlüftet werden, ist jedoch bei geschlossenem Ringspalt und geschlossenem Ventil luftdicht verschlossen. Über einen (in der Zeichnung nicht erkennbaren) Luftdruckanschluss kann der Raum 28 mit Druckluft beaufschlagt werden, so dass auch der Ringspalt 18 mit Druckluft beaufschlagt wird. Somit entsteht im Inneren des Raumes 28 bei geschlossenem Ringspalt 18 ein Luftdruck, der mit Hilfe des Messwandlers 32 gemessen werden kann.Below the
Wie die
Um den Hub des Drehtellers 12 zu erfassen, ist der Stellantrieb 24 mit einem Wegmesssensor 36 versehen, der den Hub des Drehtellers 12 parallel zur Rotationsachse A misst. Auf diese Weise lässt sich sehr genau der Axialabstand zwischen Arbeitsbehälter 10 und Drehteller 12 messen und somit auch die Spaltweite einstellen. Der Drehantrieb des Drehtellers 12 erfolgt über einen Riementrieb 38, wobei auch ein Antrieb über eine Kette oder dergleichen denkbar ist. Der Riementrieb 38 wird von dem (nicht dargestellten) Antriebsmotor angetrieben und treibt über eine Riemenscheibe 40, die an der Welle 20 befestigt ist, den Drehteller 12 an. Bei einer Axialverschiebung der Welle 20 mit Hilfe des Hydraulikzylinders 24 kompensiert der Riementrieb 38 den auftretenden Axialhub.In order to detect the stroke of the
Nachfolgend wird das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zur automatischen Spalteinstellung mit Hilfe einer Regelung beschrieben.The method according to the invention for automatic gap adjustment will be described below with the aid of a control.
Zum Ermitteln eines Referenzwertes für die Spaltweite von Null wird zunächst der Arbeitsbehälter geleert und sich eventuell in dem Raum 28 befindliche Flüssigkeit wird entfernt bzw. abgelassen. Anschließend wird der Raum 28 bei geöffnetem Spalt 18 über den Druckluftanschluss mit Druckluft beaufschlagt, so dass auch der Ringspalt 18 auf seiner Druckseite, d.h. im Bereich des Raums 28 über seinen gesamten Umfang gleichmäßig mit Druckluft beaufschlagt wird. Der Versorgungsdruck kann hier beispielsweise 300 mbar betragen. Da der Spalt noch geöffnet ist, entweicht zunächst die Druckluft im Bereich des Raumes 28 (in
Anschließend wird bei ansonsten geschlossenen Entlüftungsventilen die Spaltweite zunehmend verringert, indem der Hydraulikzylinder 24 betätigt wird. Mit zunehmendem Schließen des Ringspalts erhöht sich der Luftdruck innerhalb des Raumes 28, was von dem Sensor 32 erfasst werden kann. Wenn der durch den Sensor 32 gemessene Luftdruck auf der Druckseite des Spalts 18, d.h. im Raum 28, einen vorbestimmten Grenzwert von beispielsweise 150 mbar erreicht hat, wird der Hydraulikzylinder 24 in seiner Position angehalten und die vom Wegmesssensor 36 ermittelte Position wird in der Steuer- und Regeleinrichtung abgespeichert. Hierdurch ist ein reproduzierbarer Parameter für die Nullreferenz des Mess- und Regelsystems gefunden, so dass ausgehend von diesem Referenzwert die gewünschte Spaltweite eingestellt werden kann, indem der Hydraulikzylinder 24 in der Gegenrichtung betätigt wird, so dass der Drehteller 12 nach unten etwas abgesenkt wird.Subsequently, in otherwise closed vent valves, the gap width is increasingly reduced by the
Während des nachfolgenden Gleitschleifens kann die so eingestellte Position des Drehtellers in Axialrichtung dauerhaft beibehalten werden, indem der Temperatursensor 34 die im Bereich des Spalts 18 vorhandene Temperatur misst und bei einer Temperaturerhöhung oder einer Temperaturverringerung den Drehteller 18 relativ zum ermittelten Referenzwert (Nullpunkt) um einen vorbestimmten Wert verstellt. Hierbei wurde in Praxisversuchen ermittelt, dass sich bei einer Temperaturveränderung von beispielsweise 1°C das Spaltmaß um einen konstanten Wert verändert. Durch eine entsprechende Regelung kann diese Veränderung des Spaltmaßes kontinuierlich, automatisch und dauerhaft korrigiert werden, indem der Hydraulikzylinder 24 durch die Steuer- und Regeleinrichtung entsprechend betätigt wird. Während des Betriebs misst die Steuer- und Regeleinrichtung kontinuierlich die im Spalt vorhandene Temperatur und regelt das Spaltmaß durch Betätigen des Stellantriebs 24 bei einer Temperaturänderung entsprechend nach. Hierdurch lässt sich das Spaltmaß mit einer Genauigkeit von etwa 25 µm konstant halten.During the subsequent vibratory grinding, the position of the turntable set in the axial direction can be permanently maintained by the
Die Ermittlung des Referenzwerts für die Spaltweite von Null kann anhand von vorgegebenen Kriterien wiederholt werden, beispielsweise nach Erreichen einer bestimmten Betriebsdauer der Gleitschliffmaschine oder aber bei Überschreiten einer vorbestimmten Temperaturgrenze.The determination of the reference value for the gap width of zero can be repeated on the basis of predetermined criteria, for example after reaching a certain operating time of the vibratory finishing machine or when a predetermined temperature limit is exceeded.
Ergänzend sei erwähnt, dass im Bereich der Hydraulikversorgung des Hydraulikzylinders 24 (es könnte grundsätzlich auch eine pneumatische Ansteuerung oder auch ein Schrittmotor als Stellantrieb Verwendung finden) ein Druckregelventil und ein zusätzlicher Drucksensor vorhanden sind, die als redundante Überwachungseinrichtungen zusätzlich zu dem Drucksensor 32 vorhanden sind, falls dieser eine Fehlfunktion aufweisen sollte. Außerdem dient der Drucksensor im Bereich der Hydraulik zur genauen Steuerung des Hubs des Hydraulikzylinders 24.In addition, it should be mentioned that in the area of the hydraulic supply of the hydraulic cylinder 24 (in principle, a pneumatic control or else a stepping motor may also be used as an actuator) a pressure regulating valve and an additional pressure sensor are present, which are present as redundant monitoring devices in addition to the
