Detailed description of the invention
Above-mentioned graphic and not in scale display be used for bowls frame support bracket, their unique tasks are the function that the constructional solution of preferred embodiment and embodiment are described.In this respect, be shown in graphic in and with Reference numeral mark detail of construction correspond to the structure solution presented in the following description.
The specific embodiment for bowls frame support bracket 1 of the present invention being shown in appended Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 comprises area supported 2, and it is preferably by moulding glomeration band.This area supported is particularly suitable for receiving bowling 3.Area supported carried by frame 4, and frame 4 engages the top 5 of the curved surface of area supported by external support ring or edge 6.Contrary following at glomerular zone, frame support bracket comprises end cup 7, and it arranges and substantially closely engages with area supported, thus forms the cup of sealing by this way.
The main concept of frame support bracket 1 of the present invention is its availability in grinding, polishing and clean bowling 3.When wishing that bowling is firmly located in the process of grinding, allow ball-joint to support the area supported 2 of frame support bracket, and the friction then between ball and area supported will mainly prevent bowls rotation.On the other hand, if wish to allow the rotation of ball, or can screw during the course, then ball needs to be mentioned by from area supported.This by produce between area supported 2 and bowls surperficial 8 air cushioning or water buffering and complete.Such air cushioning or water buffering make bowling rise from area supported, thus eliminate the friction of area supported and allow bowling to go up in any direction substantially without frictionally rotating.
In order to produce the compressed fluid buffering can mentioning bowling 3, such as, the form cushioned with aforesaid air cushioning or water, compressed fluid needs to be introduced in frame support bracket 1.In order to introduce compressed fluid in frame support bracket, frame support bracket advantageously comprises the special connection 9 for compressed fluid, as shown in Figures 1 and 2.If area supported 2 and end cup 7 jointly form basic uniform hemispherical surface, this connects the central authorities being preferably placed in area supported or cup formed thus.On the contrary, if end cup slightly reduces compared to by the area supported of moulding glomeration band, as shown in drawings, connect and can be placed in the part be lowered Anywhere.
This connection 9 for compressed fluid is advantageously provided with the mechanism for Stress control and/or flow-control.This known device can, such as, being made up of pump, it can be independently electric drive pump or independently manual operation pump.
The compressed fluid be introduced in frame support bracket 1 can be made up of compressed air and water.By compressed fluid is connected to static compressed air network, compressed air can be advantageously used.On the other hand, by compressed fluid being connected to the water supply network of pressurization, water is most conveniently used.
In order to produce described compressed fluid buffering, the glomerular zone of area supported 2 adopts the shape of the geometry of the spherical surface 8 corresponding essentially to bowling 3 equally.Therefore area supported will be connected by common formation substantially closely with the bowling be installed on this area supported, and the compressed fluid be introduced in frame support bracket arranges the compressed fluid buffering formed needed between area supported and bowling.
The overall diameter had when the top 5 of area supported 2 is in the scope of 0.6 to 0.9 times of the diameter of bowling 3, when being preferably 0.8 times of bowls diameter, and the particularly advantageous embodiment of frame support bracket 1 is reached.
In one embodiment, area supported 2 forms glomerular zone, and it should have height II, and the length of curvature that it is limited in glomerular zone exceedes the maximum gauge of grabbing hole be arranged in bowling 3.When grabbing hole by the air leakage during area supported when its object is to avoid bowling to be rotated.
In order to reduce the demand of accurately installing, the middle body of area supported 2, namely connects end cup 7 thereon, can be reduced by relative to glomerular zone and bowls average diameter, makes bowling only hold the annular glomerular zone supporting the final area supported of formation.Such reduction can advantageously in the scope of 1 to 5 millimeters.In such design, therefore door 10 is formed between the surface of glomerular zone and end cup respectively, as shown in figs. 2 and 4.The reduction of end cup will cause the gap 11 between the surface and bowls surperficial 8 of end cup.This gap preferably can be used for more effectively distributing the compressed fluid be introduced in frame support bracket.
In the grinding of bowling 3, polishing and clean process, the connection 9 for the frame support bracket 1 of compressed fluid is advantageously connected to existing compressed air network or water pipe.By regulating pressure to suitable level and installing valve body on tube connector, this function can be controlled when needed, such as, in process of lapping, use foot control system.It is also possible that the suitable pin using the compressed fluid being directly connected to frame support bracket to connect steps on pump.Therefore, when hope rotates bowling, pump or valve can be trampled at any time when rotating bowling according to need.
If non-compressed air network can be used, portable electronic also can be used to drive air compressor, and it can be operated by suitable foot valve, during to need by rotation when ball, below ball, produces air cushioning.Use pressure-reducing valve and compressed-air actuated help, pressure can be set the continuous rotation and the rotation that allow ball when needed.
Water is used, if when particularly wishing to perform the grinding as wet lapping, thus provide synchronously soaking of bowls surface in bowls rotary course.
If bowling 3 is polished and compressed air is used, particularly below ball, keep air cushioning continuously, dust blows afloat from ball simultaneously.In order to reduce this inconvenience, supporting member can be provided with the ring 12 be positioned at outside area supported 2.Such embodiment is shown in Fig. 3 to Fig. 6.This ring can form independently part, and it can be connected to the frame of frame support bracket easily, as shown in Figure 4.Ring also can be naturally formed as the part of the one of frame support bracket.
In addition, ring 12 can jointly be formed around with the frame 4 of area supported and be positioned at the pipeline 13 outside area supported 2, and ring arranges to be seal-installed on bowls surperficial 8 in frame support bracket.Air and dust can from pipeline by dust evacuator or independently dust cleaner be drained, this mechanism is connected to the special bindiny mechanism 14 for this device.Therefore the air that usually can be blown out by dust from sphere is in space evacuated device and catches and be then filtered.Ring should be positioned in the position near area supported, to provide narrow pipeline.For the pipeline with excessive width, cave in and will offset the lift that area supported is produced without limit.
Ring 12 advantageously also can be provided with annular brush 15, and it suitably seals the surface 8 of bowling 3, as shown in Figure 6.
Above-mentioned explanation and this illustrate in the graphic of institute's reference be only intended to as the explanation of the present invention for the solution of the design for bowls frame support bracket.Therefore, solution is not limited to embodiment described above or appending claims, and do not departing under the concept described in appending claims, a plurality of distortion or alternative embodiment are possible.
