Description
La présente invention concerne une machine d'usinage par abrasion ultrasonore, notamment pour l'usinage des matériaux isolants, durs, friables ou cassants comme le verre, le quartz, le carbure de silicium, l'alumine, ou lorsque les pièces usinées à obtenir sont de formes assez compliquées. Dans une telle machine on met en oeuvre une "sonotrode" portant en bout un outil qui communique à un abrasif en suspension dans un liquide des vibrations ultrasonores. Celles-ci ont pour effet d'opérer un micromartellement sur la pièce à usiner et de l'éroder. L'outil, dont la forme est celle de l'empreinte que l'on veut réaliser, s'enfonce dans la pièce, reproduisant en elle sa forme propre.The present invention relates to a machine for machining by ultrasonic abrasion, in particular for the machining of insulating, hard, brittle or brittle materials such as glass, quartz, silicon carbide, alumina, or when the machined parts to be obtained are quite complicated shapes. In such a machine a "sonotrode" is carried carrying at the end a tool which communicates to an abrasive suspended in a liquid ultrasonic vibrations. These have the effect of micro-tapping the workpiece and eroding it. The tool, whose shape is that of the impression you want to make, sinks into the room, reproducing in it its own form.
Généralement, une telle machine comporte :
- un ensemble de support des pièces à usiner ;
- un ensemble vibrant terminé par un porte-outil et propre à animer l'outil d'un mouvement de va-et-vient à fréquence ultrasonore et à communiquer ces vibrations à un abrasif liquide d'usinage ;
- un système de descente contrôlée de l'outil dans la pièce à usiner ;
- la surface d'attaque de l'outil étant perpendiculaire à l'axe du porte-outil, de sorte que l'usinage par abrasion ultrasonore soit réalise en bout d'outil ;
- un dispositif de régulation de la descente de l'outil ; et
- entre l'ensemble vibrant et un bâti fixe, des filtres acousto-mécaniques disposés en des noeuds d'amplitude longitudinale des vibrations.
- a support assembly for the workpieces;
- a vibrating assembly terminated by a tool holder and suitable for animating the tool with a reciprocating movement at ultrasonic frequency and for communicating these vibrations to a liquid abrasive for machining;
- a system of controlled descent of the tool into the workpiece;
- the tool attack surface being perpendicular to the axis of the tool holder, so that machining by ultrasonic abrasion is carried out at the end of the tool;
- a device for regulating the descent of the tool; and
- between the vibrating assembly and a fixed frame, acousto-mechanical filters arranged in nodes of longitudinal amplitude of the vibrations.
Du fait de cette disposition des filtres acousto-mécaniques, l'ensemble vibrant est parfaitement immobilisé en élongation, mais il fait aussi considérer qu'en chaque secteur la vibration longitudinale harmonique est accompagnée d'une vibration radiale en quadrature de phase. Cette vibration radiale présente donc un ventre d'amplitude à cette fixation. Il est par suite absolument nécessaire de découpler parfaitement l'ensemble vibrant du bâti pour ne pas lui transmettre ses vibrations radiales.Because of this arrangement of acousto-mechanical filters, the vibrating assembly is perfectly immobilized in elongation, but it also makes it consider that in each sector the harmonic longitudinal vibration is accompanied by a radial vibration in phase quadrature. This radial vibration therefore presents a belly of amplitude to this fixation. It is therefore absolutely necessary to decouple the vibrating assembly perfectly from the frame so as not to transmit its radial vibrations to it.
Le but principal de la présente invention est d'élaborer un filtre acousto-mécanique qui satisfasse cette condition supplémentaire.The main object of the present invention is to develop an acousto-mechanical filter which satisfies this additional condition.
A cette fin, une machine d'usinage du type défini au début sera, conformément à la présente invention, essentiellement caractérisée en ce qu'un filtre acousto-mécanique est constitué essentiellement de deux bagues concentriques reliées par des pontets équidistants, la bague intérieure étant déformable élastiquement sous l'effet des vibrations radiales.To this end, a machining machine of the type defined at the start will, in accordance with the present invention, be essentially characterized in that an acousto-mechanical filter consists essentially of two concentric rings connected by equidistant bridges, the inner ring being elastically deformable under the effect of radial vibrations.
Un autre but de l'invention est d'obtenir une régulation parfaite des conditions d'usinage de la pièce à usiner, notamment quant à la profondeur d'usinage et à la pression exercée par l'outil sur la pièce.Another object of the invention is to obtain perfect regulation of the machining conditions of the part to be machined, in particular as regards the depth of machining and the pressure exerted by the tool on the part.
Pour ce faire, la machine pourra encore être caractérisée en ce que le dispositif de régulation de la descente de l'outil comprend essentiellement, pour le maintien à une valeur constant de l'intervalle entre l'outil et la surface d'usinage de même que de la pression exercée par l'outil sur la surface à usiner, un capteur de force de type capacitif propre à commander, par l'intermédiaire d'une chaîne de régulation électronique, un moteur de commande de déplacement vertical d'un ensemble mobile portant l'ensemble vibrant.To do this, the machine can also be characterized in that the device for regulating the descent of the tool essentially comprises, for maintaining the gap between the tool and the machining surface at a constant value. as the pressure exerted by the tool on the surface to be machined, a capacitive type force sensor capable of controlling, via an electronic regulation chain, a motor for controlling the vertical movement of a mobile assembly carrying the vibrating assembly.
Un autre inconvénient des machines de la technique antérieure réside dans le fait que la réalisation d'outils de formes complexes --pour l'obtention de pièces usinées de formes également complexes-- est coûteuse et nécessite des délais de fabrication importants. Par ailleurs il s'avère que l'outil s'use rapidement et que les formes réalisables sont limitées en finesse et en dimensions.Another disadvantage of the machines of the prior art resides in the fact that the production of tools of complex shapes - for obtaining machined parts of equally complex shapes - is expensive and requires significant manufacturing times. Furthermore, it turns out that the tool wears out quickly and that the achievable shapes are limited in finesse and dimensions.
Enfin on comprend que le prix de l'outil croît rapidement avec les dimensions des pièces à réaliser.Finally we understand that the price of the tool increases rapidly with the dimensions of the parts to be produced.
Un autre but de la présente invention est d'éliminer ces autres inconvénients de la technique antérieure, et notamment d'obtenir une machine d'usinage par abrasion ultrasonore qui permette la réalisation d'empreintes de formes complexes, sans être tributaire d'un outil spécifique coûteux limité en précision et dimensions.Another object of the present invention is to eliminate these other drawbacks of the prior art, and in particular to obtain a machine for machining by ultrasonic abrasion which allows the production of imprints of complex shapes, without being dependent on a tool. costly specific limited in precision and dimensions.
A cet effet une machine d'usinage par abrasion ultrasonore conforme à la présente invention, propre à effectuer un usinage par contournage, pourra encore être caractérisée en ce qu'elle comporte un dispositif numérique de commande de déplacement propre à déplacer la pièce à usiner par rapport à l'outil dans deux directions perpendiculaires entre elles et perpendiculaires à l'axe du porte-outil.To this end, a machine for machining by ultrasonic abrasion in accordance with the present invention, capable of carrying out contour machining, can also be characterized in that it comprises a digital movement control device capable of moving the workpiece by relative to the tool in two directions perpendicular to each other and perpendicular to the axis of the tool holder.
Grâce à cette disposition et à celles qui précèdent, on comprend que l'outil pourra être de forme géométrique très simple et de dimensions particulièrement réduites, puisque c'est par des déplacements relatifs entre la surface d'attaque de l'outil et la pièce à usiner, selon deux directions perpendiculaires l'une à l'autre, que l'on pourra obtenir les formes complexes d'usinage souhaitées, et non plus, comme dans l'art antérieur, en devant conférer à l'outil lesdites formes complexes souhaitées. L'outil sera donc peu coûteux et pourra être élaboré très rapidement. Il est aussi important de noter que l'outil pourra être unique quelle que soit la forme à obtenir, puisque l'on peut réaliser, grâce à l'invention, un usinage par contournage.Thanks to this arrangement and to those which precede, it is understood that the tool can be of very simple geometric shape and of particularly reduced dimensions, since it is by relative displacements between the attack surface of the tool and the part. to machine, in two directions perpendicular to each other, that one can obtain the desired complex shapes of machining, and no longer, as in the prior art, having to give the tool said complex shapes desired. The tool will therefore be inexpensive and can be developed very quickly. It is also important to note that the tool may be unique regardless of the shape to be obtained, since it is possible, thanks to the invention, to contour machining.
Grâce au dispositif de déplacement à deux dimensions, l'outil pourra par exemple effectuer un rainurage en circuit fermé sur le périmètre à découper, ou par balayage sur la surface à creuser. Il sera également possible d'effectuer un rainurage en circuit ouvert sur la pièce à usiner en terminant la boucle du circuit à l'extérieur de la pièce lorsque le rainurage se prolonge jusqu'au bord de la pièce. Lorsque le rainurage est limité à l'intérieur de la pièce, le système de déplacement peut effectuer un va-et-vient.Thanks to the two-dimensional displacement device, the tool can for example perform grooving in a closed circuit on the perimeter to be cut, or by sweeping on the surface to be dug. It will also grooving in open circuit on the workpiece is possible by terminating the circuit loop outside the workpiece when the grooving extends to the edge of the workpiece. When the grooving is limited inside the room, the movement system can go back and forth.
Lorsqu'un circuit ou un balayage d'usinage aura été effectué sur la pièce à usiner, on pourra procéder à une autre passe, après descente de l'outil, en suivant le même circuit ou le même tracé de balayage, et obtenir ainsi l'usinage sur la profondeur souhaitée , par autant de passes successives qu'il sera nécessaire.When a circuit or a machining sweep has been carried out on the workpiece, another pass can be made, after lowering the tool, following the same circuit or the same sweeping path, and thus obtaining the machining to the desired depth, by as many successive passes as necessary.
Une machine conforme à la présente invention, à savoir établie selon les principes généraux qui viennent d'être exposés, pourra présenter un certain nombre de caractéristiques et avantages complémentaires, lesquels apparaîtront à la lecture de l'exemple de réalisation donné ci-dessous à titre nullement limitatif.A machine according to the present invention, namely established according to the general principles which have just been exposed, may have a certain number of additional characteristics and advantages, which will appear on reading the embodiment given below by way of in no way limitative.

Sur la figure 1 on a référence en 1 un ensemble de support destine à porter les pièces p à usiner. Il s'agit d'un ensemble à déplacements X, Y, à savoir qu'il est constitué de deux tables 2 et 3 dont l'une (2) peut se déplacer par rapport à un bâti fixe 4 une direction horizontale Y, et dont l'autre (3) peut se déplacer par rapport à la précédente dans une direction horizontale X perpendiculaire à la direction Y.

Le déplacement de ces tables est obtenu grâce à des moteurs électriques My et Mx commandés par un calculateur 5.The position of tables 2 and 3 is identified at all times by optical reading displacement sensors (not shown). The displacement of these tables is obtained by means of electric motors M y and M x controlled by a
La pièce à usiner p est disposée dans un bac d'arrosage 6 de récupération du liquide abrasif, qui contient une plaque métallique de support de la pièce à usiner p. Comme visible sur la figure 1, la circulation du liquide abrasif est assurée par une pompe 7 qui prélève le liquide dans la bac 6 et l'y réinjecte par l'intermédiaire de l'outil, lequel a été référence en 8.The workpiece p is placed in a sprinkling tank 6 for recovering the abrasive liquid, which contains a metal plate for supporting the workpiece p . As shown in FIG. 1, the circulation of the abrasive liquid is ensured by a pump 7 which takes the liquid from the tank 6 and reinjects it there by means of the tool, which has been referenced at 8.
La figure 2, qui est une partie de la figure 1 représentée à plus grande échelle et de façon plus détaillée, montre l'ensemble vibrant, référencé globalement en 9.Figure 2, which is a part of Figure 1 shown on a larger scale and in more detail, shows the vibrating assembly, generally referenced at 9.
Cet ensemble vibrant est constitué d'un empilage de trois parties cylindriques distinctes 10, 11 et 12, chacunes de longueur λ/2, λ désignant la longueur d'onde des vibrations.This vibrating assembly consists of a stack of three distinct
La première partie 10 est constituée d'un transducteur qui comprend deux pastilles 13 en céramique piézoélectrique (titanate, zirconate de plomb PZT), précontraintes entre deux cylindres 14, 14′ de titane de masses identiques et de longueurs égales à λ /4.The
La seconde partie 11 est un adaptateur d'amplitude de vibration longitudinale. Il est soit en titane, soit en duralumin, de forme bicylindrique et de longueur égale à deux fois λ /4. Le carré du rapport des diamètres des deux sections 15, 15′ qui le constituent définit le rapport d'adaptation.The
La troisième partie 12 est un second adaptateur plus communément appelé "sonotrode", et terminée par l'outil d'usinage 8. Comme la seconde partie 11, elle est généralement de forme bicylindrique et de même matériau. Le rapport entre les diamètres des deux parties 16, 16′ qui la constituent est cette fois fonction de la forme et de la masse de l'outil 8, que ce dernier soit monobloc avec la sonotrode, ou rapporté.The
Sur les figures 3 et 4 on a montré de quelle façon la liaison entre l'outil 8 et la sonotrode 12 peut être assurée. Cette liaison est assurée par un emboîtement à cône morse de conicité égale à 5 %, une partie de surface extérieure conique 8′ de l'outil 8 s'emboîtant dans un creux de forme correspondante 16˝ de la partie terminale 16′ de la sonotrode 12. Ce blocage est maintenu par un goujon bicylindrique 17 à deux filetages différentiels 18, 18′. Le filetage à pas fin 18′ de la partie supérieure de gros diamètre du goujon s'engage dans un trou taraudé correspondant 19′ de la sonotrode 12, tandis que le filetage à pas plus gros 18 de la partie inférieure de petit diamètre du goujon s'engage dans un trou taraudé correspondant 19 de la partie 8′ de l'outil.In FIGS. 3 and 4, it has been shown how the connection between the
Ce système de liaison présente l'avantage d'augmenter la surface de contact entre la sonotrode 12 et l'outil 8, et donc de permettre une meilleure transmission des vibrations à l'outil, tout en assurant leur excellente coïncidence axiale.This connection system has the advantage of increasing the contact surface between the sonotrode 12 and the
En outre, il rend facile un ajustage de l'ensemble vibrant 9 qui vient d'être décrit sur la fréquence de résonance, par léger déplacement du goujon 17 dans son logement, ce qui évite d'opérer par retouches successives de la longueur de la sonotrode.In addition, it makes it easy to adjust the vibrating
Sur la figure 1, et de façon plus détaillée sur la figure 2, on a également représenté un système de découplage entre l'ensemble vibrant 9 et le bâti 4 de la machine, ce système étant destiné à arrêter les vibrations ultrasonores au niveau de la liaison entre l'ensemble vibrant et le bâti, tout en maintenant cet ensemble vibrant parfaitement perpendiculaire à la surface à usiner.In FIG. 1, and in more detail in FIG. 2, there is also shown a decoupling system between the vibrating
Sur les figures 1 et 2 on a aussi représenté l'amplitude des vibrations longitudinales de l'ensemble vibrant (en trait continu), ainsi que l'amplitude des vibrations radiales (en tirets).Figures 1 and 2 also show the amplitude of the longitudinal vibrations of the vibrating assembly (in solid lines), as well as the amplitude of the radial vibrations (in dashes).
Comme le montre en particulier la figure 2, lorsque l'ensemble oscille sur son mode propre, la fixation au bâti se fait en un noeud d'amplitude longitudinale de vibration. L'ensemble vibrant est parfaitement immobilisé en élongation.As shown in particular in Figure 2, when the assembly oscillates in its own mode, the attachment to the frame is made in a node of longitudinal amplitude of vibration. The vibrating assembly is perfectly immobilized in elongation.
Pour obtenir, comme mentionné plus haut, le découplage radial souhaité, on peut avantageusement utiliser les filtres acousto-mécaniques 20 visibles de profil sur la figure 2 et en plan sur la figure 2a, et qui sont disposés, selon ce qui vient d'être expliqué plus haut, en des noeuds (21 et 22) d'amplitude longitudinale des vibrations. Chaque filtre électro-acoustique 20 est constitué de deux bagues concentriques 23, 24 reliées entre elles par trois pontets équidistants 25 et reliées à l'adaptateur par trois autres pontets 26 équidistants entre eux, décalés des premiers de 60°. La bague intérieure 24 est déformable élastiquement au gré des vibrations radiales. La bague extérieure plus massive 23 est reliée à un ensemble mobile 27 du bâti par une bride 28 (figure 1).To obtain, as mentioned above, the desired radial decoupling, it is advantageous to use the acousto-
La machine comporte par ailleurs, comme déjà indiqué au début, un dispositif de régulation de la descente de l'outil 8, destiné à maintenir constante la distance entre la surface d'attaque de l'outil et la surface à usiner.The machine also comprises, as already indicated at the beginning, a device for regulating the descent of the
Ce dispositif est visible en partie à la figure 1 mais son schéma de principe général est fourni à la figure 5. Sur ces deux figures on a utilisé dans la mesure du possible les mêmes références pour désigner les mêmes parties ou organes du dispositif.This device is visible in part in Figure 1 but its general block diagram is provided in Figure 5. In these two figures we used as far as possible the same references to designate the same parts or organs of the device.
Pour que l'intervalle entre l'outil et la surface d'usinage reste constant , avec une pression constante sur la surface à usiner, il convient bien évidemment que l'outil 8 descende dans la pièce p au fur et à mesure que celle-ci se creuse. On utilise l'effet de la pesanteur agissant sur un système de bras de levier et de contrepoids réglables schématisés en 29, soutenant l'ensemble mobile 27 auquel est fixé l'ensemble vibrant 9.So that the interval between the tool and the machining surface remains constant, with a constant pressure on the surface to be machined, it is obviously necessary that the
Cette solution est valable lorsque la surface d'usinage est grande ; dans ce cas, les contrepoids sont importants, de l'ordre du kilogramme. Mais lorsque les surfaces d'usinage sont petites et que, de plus, une grande finesse d'exécution est demandée, les masses mises en jeu sont telles qu'elles ne compensent pas les frottements des axes d'articulation du bras de levier et ceux du couple des poulies de renvoi. Le système est alors arrêté par les frottements secs du montage, et il faut alors charger exagérément en masse, ce qui introduit des écaillages importants et même une rupture de la pièce. De plus, il arrive au cours de la descente de l'outil que l'abrasif ne circule pas régulièrement ou que la concentration en abrasif change. Il s'ensuit un ralentissement, voire un arrêt de descente. Toute la pression est alors transmise à la pièce et il y a rupture immédiate. Pour éviter ces inconvénients, on prévoit un capteur de force qui corrige la vitesse de descente. Le capteur de force est constitué d'une lame 30 encastrée à une extrémité et qui forme une électrode d'un condensateur. Tout le poids du système mobile 9-27 de la machine repose sur cette lame 30 lorsque l'usinage fonctionne correctement. En regard de cette électrode, est disposé un capteur capacitif qui comporte une électrode de détection 31, formant l'autre électrode du condensateur associée à la déformation de la lame 30. Une chaîne électronique, à déséquilibre de pont, corrige la vitesse de descente de la butée.This solution is valid when the machining surface is large; in this case, the counterweights are significant, of the order of a kilogram. But when the machining surfaces are small and, moreover, great finesse of execution is required, the masses involved are such that they do not compensate for the friction of the axes of articulation of the lever arm and those the torque of the return pulleys. The system is then stopped by the dry friction of the assembly, and it is then necessary to load excessively in mass, which introduces significant chipping and even a rupture of the part. In addition, it happens during the descent of the tool that the abrasive does not circulate regularly or that the concentration of abrasive changes. It follows a slowing down, even a descent stop. All the pressure is then transmitted to the part and there is an immediate rupture. To avoid these drawbacks, provides a force sensor which corrects the descent speed. The force sensor consists of a
Lorsque la vitesse d'usinage ralentit, pour une des raisons citées plus haut, la lame 30 du capteur se trouve légèrement soulagée et la distance interélectrodes (lame-capteur) augmente. Le système réagit en ralentissant le moteur Mz de descente.When the machining speed slows down, for one of the reasons mentioned above, the
Sur les figures 1 et 5 on a encore référencé en :
- 32 une butée mobile entraînée par le moteur Mz et supportant la
lame encastrée 30 ; - 33 un amplificateur de commande du moteur Mz ;
- 34 un condensateur à capacité de référence ;
- 35 un comparateur du type à déséquilibre de pont, commandant l'amplificateur 33 ; et
- 36 une consigne de vitesse moyenne.
- 32 a movable stop driven by the motor Mz and supporting the embedded
blade 30; - 33 a motor control amplifier Mz;
- 34 a reference capacitor;
- 35 a comparator of the bridge imbalance type, controlling the
amplifier 33; and - 36 an average speed setpoint.
Ceci étant, on constate que l'invention présente les importants avantages suivants :
- La surface d'attaque de l'outil est perpendiculaire à l'axe de la sonotrode et reste à une distance constante de la pièce à usiner, cette distance dépendant de la dimension des grains d'abrasif utilisé et de l'amplitude des vibrations ultrasonores, ce qui confère à la pièce réalisée une excellente qualité de finition ;
- Le réglage de la distance entre la surface d'attaque de l'outil et la surface de la pièce à usiner est obtenu par l'intermédiaire d'un capteur de force donnant la pression minimale de contact de l'outil sur la pièce à travers la charge d'abrasif en mouvement ;
- L'outil peut être réalisé dans des matériaux très durs et résistants, par exemple du diamant polycristallin, compte tenu de sa forme simple. Il présente donc une usure bien moindre pour un travail équivalent, ce qui permet une précision d'usinage accrue ;
- Il n'y a pas d'adaptation d'impédance acoustique à chaque changement d'outil (sonotrode standard) ;
- L'ensemble vibrant, des pastilles piézoélectriques jusqu'à l'outil, peut être monobloc. Cet ensemble monobloc, sans solution de continuité par goujons, inévitable par la méthode d'usinage classique, permet la meilleure transmission possible des vibrations à l'outil.
- Il est possible de réaliser un "Kit Ultrasons" adaptable sur toute machine outil à commande numérique ;
- La dimension des pièces n'est plus limitée par la puissance de l'usineuse mais par la longueur et la précision de déplacement des tables X, Y. Cette limite est généralement moins contraignante que celle de la puissance ; et
- Dans l'usinage par contournage, objet de la présente demande,
l'outil 8, généralement cylindrique, est parfaitement concentrique à la sonotrode 12.
- The attack surface of the tool is perpendicular to the axis of the sonotrode and remains at a constant distance from the workpiece, this distance depending on the size of the abrasive grains used and the amplitude of the ultrasonic vibrations. , which gives the finished piece an excellent quality of finish;
- The setting of the distance between the leading surface of the tool and the surface of the workpiece is obtained via a force sensor giving the minimum contact pressure of the tool on the workpiece through the moving abrasive charge;
- The tool can be made from very hard and resistant materials, for example polycrystalline diamond, given its simple shape. It therefore has much less wear for equivalent work, which allows increased machining precision;
- There is no adaptation of acoustic impedance at each tool change (standard sonotrode);
- The vibrating assembly, from the piezoelectric pads to the tool, can be in one piece. This one-piece assembly, without solution of continuity by studs, inevitable by the conventional machining method, allows the best possible transmission of vibrations to the tool.
- It is possible to create an "Ultrasonic Kit" adaptable to any numerically controlled machine tool;
- The size of the parts is no longer limited by the power of the machine but by the length and the precision of movement of the X, Y tables. This limit is generally less restrictive than that of the power; and
- In contouring machining, which is the subject of this application, the
tool 8, generally cylindrical, is perfectly concentric with thesonotrode 12.
