Definitions
- the invention relates to a rotary belt tool for surface processing.
- Such tools are e.g. Known as belt grinders, in which an abrasive belt runs over a driven and a rotating disc, or rotary brush tools are also known, but in which the bristles are carried by the brush body or by segment pieces (DE-OS 28 25 090, DE-OS 31 35 468).
- These known tools have various disadvantages such as that they are poorly suited for the surface treatment of profiled bars or for structuring wood and that they, among other things. unwieldy, not very effective and, above all, only very limitedly applicable and usable.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of eliminating these disadvantages and of providing an improved radially acting rotary belt tool for surface processing which is more versatile, more effective and yet is also easy to handle, durable, safe and easy to maintain, and compact and inexpensive.
- this object is achieved according to the invention by the features in the characterizing part of claim 1 as the main claim.
- the features of the subclaims represent developments and refinements of the main subject-matter of the object.
- the tool according to the invention can be designed, for example, for structuring wood or for working on leather or for removing rust from steel profiles as a wire brush, in which the axis of rotation relative to the tool axis Bristles standing radially outwards, for example non-rotatably to their main bristle axis, can be fastened at regular intervals from one another in such a way that bristles which are one behind the other in the circumferential direction are axially offset laterally from one another by the bristle wire diameter and the bristle end regions can be slightly bent, for example also in the circumferential direction, and the bristle ends can be ground and the removal rate can be changed significantly by changing the direction of rotation of the tool.
- the wood can be structured without damaging the wood surface.
- Different bristle lengths over the axial tool length make it possible to machine rods of any material with a profile cross section in the longitudinal direction on their surface over partial contour areas.
- the free wire ends experience a much desired self-sharpening due to the non-rotatability and lateral displacement of the bristles, while otherwise the surface to be machined can be pollinated with increasing smoothing of the bristle ends. Resharpening of the bristle ends by simply removing or dressing e.g. on the grindstone is possible.
- the tool according to the invention can also be used and used as a rotating file, as a milling tool, as a polishing tool, as a grinding tool, etc., depending on the equipment of the band with the corresponding elements acting on the surface to be machined.
- the tool according to the invention is i.a. for structuring or cleaning surfaces as well as e.g. also for roughening and refurbishing, for example leather or for polishing.
- FIG. 1 shows an exemplary embodiment of a rotary belt tool according to the invention, in which the belt 5 is equipped with steel bristles of the same length.
- the flat thin endless band 5 is stretched as a ring on a rubber-elastic ring body 3, which is clamped axially deforming between the two flanges 1 and 2 of the clamping unit 1, 2 and attempts to expand radially as a result of its deformation, as a result of which the band 5 is clamped.
- the ring body 3 surrounds two mutually facing axial lugs 8, 9 on the two flanges 1 and 2, which center it and prevent its deformation towards the tool axis.
- the projections 11 enter the ring body 3 made of rubber-elastic material in an increasingly deep axial manner.
- One of the flanges 2 has a central axial through-hole with a counterbore, which receives the shaft and the head of a clamping screw.
- the clamping screw engages with its threaded shaft in a blind hole thread in the axial approach of the other flange 1, so that when the clamping screw is tightened, the two flanges 1 and 2 are clamped axially against one another and against the annular body 3, which in turn causes the band 5 to be circumferential of the ring body 3 is clamped.
- the two flanges 1, 2 protrude somewhat beyond the diameter of the ring body 3 so as to axially enclose the band 5 on the ring body 3.
- the flange 1 with the threaded blind hole in its axial shoulder 8 carries on its side facing away from the shoulder a shaft 7 which serves to clamp the tool in a rotary drive, for example in the chuck of a hand drill.
- the e.g. Shaft 7 positively attached to flange 1 can have, for example, a regular hexagon cross section.
- the two mutually facing axial lugs 8, 9 of the two flanges 1, 2 are at their ends by a radial web, on the one hand, and a corresponding groove, on the other hand, so positively interlocked that the two flanges 1, 2 are non-rotatable but axially displaceable.
- the bristle length in this tool corresponds to approximately half the ring body diameter or approximately a quarter of the tool diameter.
- the clamping screw has, for example, a hexagon socket in the head.
- the shaft 7 is axially fixed, for example, by radial deformation of the wall of an attachment shoulder of the flange 1 receiving its end.
- FIG. 2 shows the ring body 3 of the tool, which is made of rubber-elastic material, with its bore for receiving the flange projections 8, 9 and with the end-side recesses for the engagement of the flange projections 11, which have a uniformly increasing depth with a smaller radius.
- the two end faces of the ring body 3 are very frustoconical, ie the axial length of the ring body 3 increases slightly and evenly with increasing radius from the axis.
- the ring body 3 has a plane of symmetry perpendicular to the ring body axis.
- Figure 3 shows the flange 1 of the clamping unit 1, 2 with the fastening attachment for the hexagonal shaft on one flange side for clamping the tool in a rotary drive, e.g. the drill chuck of a drill.
- the fastening attachment has a blind hole with a hexagonal inner cross section.
- the flange 1 carries the axial shoulder 8 with the threaded blind hole, a guide recess as a cylindrical end depression and radially outside the depression, each with a carrier web.
- the flange 1 has radially extending stiffening ribs that decrease conically radially outwards.
- the flange 1 On the side of the axial cylindrical projection 8, the flange 1 carries, with a larger radius, the projections 11 which are evenly distributed over the circumference and whose height relative to the flange 1 decreases uniformly to a lower final height with increasing radius.
- Figure 4 finally shows the other flange 2, which differs from the former in that, instead of the fastening lug and the threaded blind hole, a through hole for the clamping screw is provided with a conical depression at the end of the hole facing away from the lug.
- the free end of the attachment has a transverse groove or a slot for receiving the driving webs transverse to the tool axis.
- This flange 2 has no radial stiffening ribs.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Rotationsbandwerkzeug zur Oberflächenbearbeitung. Solche Werkzeuge sind z.B. als Bandschleifgeräte bekannt, bei denen ein Schleifband über eine angetriebene und eine mitlaufende Scheibe läuft, oder es sind auch Rotationsbürstenwerkzeuge bekannt, bei denen die Borsten jedoch vom Bürstenkörper oder von Segmentstücken getragen werden, (DE-OS 28 25 090, DE-OS 31 35 468). Diese bekannten Werkzeuge haben verschiedenste Nachteile wie z.B., daß sie schlecht geeignet sind zur Oberflächenbearbeitung von profilierten Stäben oder zur Strukturierung von Holz und daß sie u.a. unhandlich, nur wenig effektiv und vorallem nur sehr beschränkt anwendbar und einsatzfähig sind.The invention relates to a rotary belt tool for surface processing. Such tools are e.g. Known as belt grinders, in which an abrasive belt runs over a driven and a rotating disc, or rotary brush tools are also known, but in which the bristles are carried by the brush body or by segment pieces (DE-OS 28 25 090, DE-OS 31 35 468). These known tools have various disadvantages such as that they are poorly suited for the surface treatment of profiled bars or for structuring wood and that they, among other things. unwieldy, not very effective and, above all, only very limitedly applicable and usable.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, diese Nachteile zu beseitigen und ein verbessertes radial wirkendes Rotationsbandwerkzeug zur Oberflächenbearbeitung anzugeben, das vielseitiger einsetzbar ist, effektiver wirkt und dabei dennoch auch leicht handhabbar langlebig, sicher und wartungsfreundlich sowie kompakt und kostengünstig ist. Ausgehend von einem gattungsgemäßen Werkzeug wird diese Aufgabe erfinderisch gelöst durch die Merkmale im kennzeichnenden Teil des Patentanspruches 1 als dem Hauptanspruch. Die Merkmale der Unteransprüche stellen Weiterbildungen und Ausgestaltungen des Hauptanspruchgegenstandes im Sinne der gestellten Aufgabe dar. So kann das erfindungsgemäße Werkzeug beispielsweise zum Strukturieren von Holz oder zum Aufarbeiten von Leder oder zum Entrosten von Stahlprofilen als Drahtbürste ausgebildet sein, bei welcher die gegenüber der Werkzeugachse als Rotationsachse radial nach außen stehenden Borsten z.B. unverdrehbar zu ihrer Borstenhauptachse in regelmäßigen Abständen voneinander so befestigt sein können, daß in Umfangsrichtung hintereinanderstehende Borsten um den Borstendrahtdurchmesser axial seitlich gegeneinander versetzt angeordnet sind und die Borstenendbereiche beispielsweise auch in Umfangsrichtung leicht abgebogen sein können, die Borstenenden angeschliffen sein können und die Abtragrate durch Drehrichtungswechsel des Werkzeuges deutlich veränderbar ist. Durch die Borstenversetzung quer zur Umfangsrichtung gelingt die Holzstrukturierung ohne Verletzung der Holzoberfläche. Durch unterschiedliche Borstenlänge über die axiale Werkzeuglänge besteht die Möglichkeit, Stangen beliebigen Materials mit Profilquerschnitt in Längsrichtung an ihrer Oberfläche über Teilkonturbereiche hinweg zu bearbeiten.The invention is therefore based on the object of eliminating these disadvantages and of providing an improved radially acting rotary belt tool for surface processing which is more versatile, more effective and yet is also easy to handle, durable, safe and easy to maintain, and compact and inexpensive. Starting from a generic tool, this object is achieved according to the invention by the features in the characterizing part of claim 1 as the main claim. The features of the subclaims represent developments and refinements of the main subject-matter of the object. The tool according to the invention can be designed, for example, for structuring wood or for working on leather or for removing rust from steel profiles as a wire brush, in which the axis of rotation relative to the tool axis Bristles standing radially outwards, for example non-rotatably to their main bristle axis, can be fastened at regular intervals from one another in such a way that bristles which are one behind the other in the circumferential direction are axially offset laterally from one another by the bristle wire diameter and the bristle end regions can be slightly bent, for example also in the circumferential direction, and the bristle ends can be ground and the removal rate can be changed significantly by changing the direction of rotation of the tool. Thanks to the bristle offset across the circumferential direction, the wood can be structured without damaging the wood surface. Different bristle lengths over the axial tool length make it possible to machine rods of any material with a profile cross section in the longitudinal direction on their surface over partial contour areas.
Die freien Drahtenden erfahren bei Drehrichtungsumkehr eine vielfach erwünschte Selbstschärfung durch die Unverdrehbarkeit und seitliche Versetzung der Borsten während sonst bei zunehmender Glättung der Borstenenden eine Pollierung der zu bearbeitenden Oberfläche bewirkt werden kann. Auch ein Nachschärfen der Borstenenden durch einfaches Abziehen bzw. Abrichten z.B. am Schleifstein ist möglich. Das erfindungsgemäße Werkzeug kann aber ebenso als rotierende Feile, als Fräswerkzeug, als Pollierwerkzeug, als Schleifwerkzeug usw. eingesetzt und verwendet werden, je nach der Bestückung des Bandes mit den entsprechenden, auf die zu bearbeitende Oberfläche einwirkenden Elementen. Das erfindungsgemäße Werkzeug ist dabei u.a. zur Strukturierung oder Reinigung von Oberflächen ebenso einsetzbar wie z.B. auch zum Aufrauhen und Aufarbeiten, beispielsweise von Leder oder zum Pollieren. Es gibt keinerlei Beschränkung auf die nur beispielhaft genannten Anwendungsmöglichkeiten, sondern darüber hinaus gibt es noch eine große Vielfalt und Vielzahl, hier nicht einzeln aufzählbarer, höchst interessanter und nutzvoller Anwendungsmöglichkeiten.When the direction of rotation is reversed, the free wire ends experience a much desired self-sharpening due to the non-rotatability and lateral displacement of the bristles, while otherwise the surface to be machined can be pollinated with increasing smoothing of the bristle ends. Resharpening of the bristle ends by simply removing or dressing e.g. on the grindstone is possible. However, the tool according to the invention can also be used and used as a rotating file, as a milling tool, as a polishing tool, as a grinding tool, etc., depending on the equipment of the band with the corresponding elements acting on the surface to be machined. The tool according to the invention is i.a. for structuring or cleaning surfaces as well as e.g. also for roughening and refurbishing, for example leather or for polishing. There is no restriction to the application possibilities mentioned only by way of example, but there is also a great variety and variety, extremely interesting and useful application possibilities, which cannot be individually enumerated here.

In Figur 1 ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel eines erfindungsgemäßen Rotationsbandwerkzeuges gezeigt, bei dem das Band 5 mit Stahldrohtborsten gleicher Länge bestückt ist. Das flache dünne endlose Band 5 ist als Ring auf einem gummielastischen Ringkörper 3 gespannt, der zwischen den beiden Flanschen 1 und 2 der Spanneinheit 1,2 axial verformend verspannt wird und sich infolge seiner Verformung radial aufzuweiten sucht, wodurch das Band 5 festgespannt wird. Der Ringkörper 3 umgibt dabei zwei einander zugewandte axiale Ansätze 8,9 an den beiden Flanschen 1 und 2, die ihn zentrieren und seine Verformung zur Werkzeugochse hin verhindern. Axial ragen in die beiden Stirnflächen des Ringkörpers 3 an den Flanschen 1 und 2 ausgebildete, axiale, einander zugewandte Vorsprünge, die eine zuverlässige, formschlüssige Mitnahmeverbindung und Befestigung des Ringkörpers 3 an der Spanneinheit 1,2 sicherstellt.1 shows an exemplary embodiment of a rotary belt tool according to the invention, in which the
Die Vorsprünge 11 treten mit abnehmendem Radius von der Werkzeugachse gleichmäßig zunehmend tief axial in den Ringkörper 3 aus gummielastischem Material ein. Einer der Flansche 2 weist eine zentrische axiale Durchgangsbohrung mit Einsenkung auf, die den Schaft und den Kopf einer Spannschraube aufnimmt. Die Spannschraube greift mit ihrem Gewindeschaft in ein Sacklochgewinde im axialen Ansatz des anderen Flansches 1 ein, so daß mit dem Anziehen der Spannschraube die beiden Flansche 1 und 2 axial gegeneinander und gegen den Ringkörper 3 dazwischen verspannt werden, wodurch wiederum das Band 5 auf dem Umfang des Ringkörpers 3 festgespannt wird. Radial ragen die beiden Flansche 1,2 etwas über den Durchmesser des Ringkörpers 3 hinaus, um so das Band 5 axial auf dem Ringkörper 3 einzuschließen. Der Flansch 1 mit dem Gewindesackloch in seinem axialen Ansatz 8 trägt auf seiner dem Ansatz abgewandten Seite einen Schaft 7, der dazu dient, das Werkzeug in einen Drehantrieb zu spannen, beispielsweise in das Spannfutter einer Handbohrmaschine. Der dabei z.B. formschlüssig am Flansch 1 befestigte Schaft 7 kann beispielsweise einen regelmäßigen Sechseckquerschnitt aufweisen. Die beiden einander zugewandten axialen Ansätze 8,9 der beiden Flansche 1,2 sind an ihren Enden durch einen radial verlaufenden Steg einerseits und eine entsprechende Nut andererseits so formschlüssig ineinandergefügt, daß die beiden Flansche 1,2 gegeneinander unverdrehbar aber axial verschiebbar sind. Die Borstenlänge entspricht bei diesem Werkzeug etwa dem halben Ringkörperdurchmesser bzw. etwa einem Viertel des Werkzeugdurchmessers. Die Spannschraube weist beispielsweise ein Innensechskant im Kopf auf. Der Schaft 7 ist beispielsweise durch radiale Deformation der Wand eines sein Ende aufnehmenden Befestigungsansatzes des Flansches 1 axial befestigt.With a decreasing radius from the tool axis, the

Die beiden Stirnflächen des Ringkörpers 3 sind sehr stumpfkegelig ausgebildet, d.h. die axiale Länge des Ringkörpers 3 nimmt mit zunehmendem Radius von der Achse aus geringfügig und gleichmäßig ob. Der Ringkörper 3 besitzt eine senkrecht zur Ringkörperachse stehende Symmetrieebene. Es sind z.B. sechs stirnseitige Ringkörperausnehmungen regelmäßig über den Umfang verteilt mit 30 Winkelgraden Teilung und radialem Öffnungswinkel sowie Kreissegmentbegrenzung am ineren und äußeren Durchmesser der Ausnehmungen.FIG. 2 shows the
Figur 3 zeigt den Flansch 1 der Spanneinheit 1,2 mit dem Befestigungsansatz für den Sechskantschaft auf der einen Flanschseite für die Einspannung des Werkzeuges in einen Drehantrieb wie z.B. das Bohrfutter einer Bohrmaschine. Der Befestigungsansatz weist ein Sackloch mit Sechskantinnenquerschnitt auf. Auf der anderen Seite trägt der Flansch 1 den axialen Ansatz 8 mit dem Gewindesackloch, einer Führungsaussparung als zylindrische endseitige Einsenkung und radial außerhalb der Einsenkung je einem Mitnahmesteg. Auf der Befestigungsseite hat der Flansch 1 radial verlaufende, konisch radial nach außen abnehmende Versteifungsrippen. Auf der seite des axialen zylindrischen Ansatzes 8 trägt der Flansch 1 bei größerem Radius die gleichmäßig über den Umfang verteilten Vorsprünge 11, deren Höhe gegenüber dem Flansch 1 mit zunehmendem Radius gleichmäßig auf eine geringere Endhöhe abnimmt.Figure 3 shows the flange 1 of the clamping unit 1, 2 with the fastening attachment for the hexagonal shaft on one flange side for clamping the tool in a rotary drive, e.g. the drill chuck of a drill. The fastening attachment has a blind hole with a hexagonal inner cross section. On the other hand, the flange 1 carries the
Figur 4 schließlich zeigt den anderen Flansch 2, der sich vom erstgenannten dadurch unterscheidet, daß anstatt des Befestigungsansatzes und des Gewindesackloches eine Durchgangsbohrung für die Spannschraube vorgesehen ist mit kegeliger Einsenkung am ansatzabgewandten Bohrungsende. Das freie Ansatzende besitzt eine Quernut bzw. einen Schlitz zur Aufnahme der Mitnahmestege quer zur Werkzeugachse. Dieser Flansch 2 hat keine radialen Versteifungsrippen.Figure 4 finally shows the other flange 2, which differs from the former in that, instead of the fastening lug and the threaded blind hole, a through hole for the clamping screw is provided with a conical depression at the end of the hole facing away from the lug. The free end of the attachment has a transverse groove or a slot for receiving the driving webs transverse to the tool axis. This flange 2 has no radial stiffening ribs.
Dieses vorstehend beschriebene und in den Figuren dargestellte Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung gibt nur eine mögliche Werkzeugausbildung wieder, die keinerlei Beschränkung gegenüber dem im Hauptanspruch mit seinen wesentlichen erfindungsgemäßen Merkmalen festgelegten Werkzeug mit sich bringen soll.This exemplary embodiment of the invention described above and shown in the figures represents only one possible tool design, which should not entail any restriction compared to the tool defined in the main claim with its essential features according to the invention.
