Abstract
Description
- In the manufacture of heads for smoothing and polishing plates or slabs of marbles and other stones, it is of fundamental importance to reduce as much as possible the transmission of vibrations from the moving mechanical members to the gearcase by which the shoe-holders for the abrasive blocks are carried and from which they develop.
- One type of smoothing and polishing head comprises a drive shaft, a fixed top flange, and a gearcase which is driven in rotation by the drive shaft and about the latter, and on which there are mounted shafts with oscillating shoe-holders for the abrasive blocks, the said shafts being driven by a transmission gearing for imposing a reciprocating angular motion on said shoe-holders.
- In order to overcome the drawbacks referred to above, in the aforesaid heads and in similar heads, the present invention envisages the following in combination:
- the gearcase is constrained to the drive shaft by means of a ball-and-socket joint, as well as by means of two elastic damping rings which are coaxial to the drive shaft and which skirt a central end edge of the gearcase and are fastened axially between a discoid fixed on the shaft and a third component angulary engaged to the drive shaft and connected with bolts to a bottom component of the gearcase;
- between said bolts and said third component there are provided damping rings fastened by said bolts; and
- between said third component and said bottom component of said gearcase there are set further elastic damping elements fastened by said bolts.
- With the above arrangement, an effective damping of vibrations from the mechanical members to the shoe-holders is achieved.
- The drawings illustrate a head for smoothing and polishing stones, such as marbles, granites and the like, which, as a whole, is very similar to commercially available heads that are notoriously widely used in the technological sector in question, but which presents the characteristics specified in the attached claims.
- The drawing illustrates a head for smoothing and polishing stones, such as marbles, granites and the like, which, as a whole, is very similar to commercially available heads that are notoriously widely used in the technological sector in question, but which presents the characteristics specified in the attached claims.
- In the drawings:
- Fig. 1 shows a section of the head according to axial half-planes appropriately chosen to illustrate sufficiently well the basic components;
- Figs. 2 and 3 show in isolation a shoe-holder for abrasive blocks in two orthogonal and partial views; and
- Figs. 4 and 5 show enlarged details of Fig. 1.
-
- As illustrated in the annexed drawings, the reference number 1 designates the main drive shaft with a
flange 1A for coupling with a motor drive. Thereference number 3 designates a fixed top flange designed for being applied to the structure of the machine that is to control the head or a plurality of heads for treatment of a material having even a relatively very large surface. Said fixedflange 3carries bearings 5 which are used for mounting the shaft 1. Applied by means of screws 7 to saidflange 3, in the position corresponding to the bottom bearing 5, is an annular element 9 which forms afixed gear 10 and further forms awall 9A that has a cylindrical surface which is also fixed. In thefixed flange 3 and in the annular element 9 apassage 11 is made for lubrication of the inside of the head. Thefixed flange 3 may have an annular seat for an O-ring 13 of very large diameter. Normally, the O-ring 13 is provided in heads of this type as the only seal element and presents the problem of fast deterioration due to the very high sliding speed of the rotary head at the surface with which said O-ring must co-operate. The consequence of this is a frequent and fast heating of theseal element 13, which means that it wears out, or else the problem arises of a dispersion of lubricant which, in addition to representing a cost, also and above all represents a risk of damage to the material that is being smoothed, on account of the oil that may drop onto the plate or slab and stain it. - The smoothing head comprises a
gearcase 15 which is substantially made up of two components, a top one 15A and a bottom one 15B, which are joined together for evident requirements of production. Also forming part of thegearcase 15 is a third component 15C which constitutes a drive flange and which is connected withbolts 17 to thecomponent 15B and withgrooved profiles 19 to the shaft 1. Thereference number 20 designates a discoid fitted on the shaft 1. Thereference number 21 designates elastic damping rings set around the shaft 1, one of said rings being set between thediscoid 20 and a central end edge 15B1 of thecomponent 15B, and the other of said rings being set between said central end edge 15B1 and the third component 15C. A nut (with a lock nut) 22 fastens the twodamping rings 21. The reference number 23 designates a ball-and-socket joint which operates between said central end edge 15B1 and the shaft 1. All the aforesaid members are provided for connection between the shaft 1 and the rotary gearcase 15 (15A, 15B, 15C). Thereference number 25 designates an element forming a central flange designed for positioning of the internal mechanism of the head. In addition to thedamping rings 21, afurther damping ring 27 is provided between the third component 15C of thegearcase 15 and each of thebolts 17 which fasten it, thus preventing direct metal contact between thecomponents 15B and 15C. Yet further annular elastic damping means 28 are received inseats 15G of the third component 15C and are fastened, by means of thebolts 17, between the twocomponents 15B and 15C. These auxiliary damping means 27 and 28, in combination with thedamping rings 21, make it possible to achieve effective damping of the vibrations between the shaft 1 (and corresponding motor) and therotary gearcase 15 to which the abrasive blocks that operate on the stone are associated. - The
main component 15B of thegearcase 15 forms seats forradial shafts 29 distributed circumferentially. Each of saidshafts 29 is mounted onbearings holder 31, to which there may be applied, with the aid of ashaped portion 31A, an abrasive block. The abrasive blocks with the corresponding shoe-holders 31 must oscillate about the axes of therespective shafts 29 so as to obtain an effect of gradual displacement of the active surfaces of the abrasive blocks in such a way as to enable regular stone-working on the surface of the material that is to undergo treatment. - The fit between each
shaft 29 and the respective shoe-holder 31 is obtained by means of agrooved end 29B of theshaft 29 and a groovedseat 31 B of the shoe-holder 31. To obtain oscillatory actuation, each of theshafts 29 has abevel gear 33. All thevarious bevel gears 33 mesh simultaneously with the toothing of aring bevel gear 35, which is coaxial to the shaft 1 and which must be moved with a reciprocating angular motion precisely to obtain simultaneous reciprocating angular movements of the variousradial shafts 29. In order to obtain said reciprocating movement, in the gearcase 15 a gearing is provided which, starting from thefixed gear 10, comprises a series ofgears gears gearing 37 to 45 has the function of bringing about, with the rotation of thehead 15, the rotation of a cam 47 which is fixed to theend gear 45 of said gearing. Mounted on the cam 47 is aconnection rod big end 49A andsmall end 49B. The connecting-rodbig end 49A is mounted on the cam 47, whilst thesmall end 49B is mounted on a pin 51 which is carried by thering gear 35. With the above arrangement, angular reciprocating movement of thering gear 35 that drives theradial shafts 29 is obtained by means of thegearing - Connection, by means of the grooved shaped
portions shafts 29 and the respective shoe-holder 31 for the abrasive block must transmit the oscillations to the shoe-holder 31, preventing the onset, over time, of play between the shaft and the shoe-holder. Mere connection between the grooved surfaces of theend 29B of theshaft 29 and the surfaces of theseat 31B, also by means of axial forcing exerted during assembly (even using a hammer) and stabilized by abolt 32 screwed axially in theshaft 29, has not proved sufficient, over time, to maintain proper fit and prevent onset of play. - In order to overcome the aforesaid drawback, each shoe-
holder 31 has aslot 61 which, from outside, reaches radially theseat 31 B in such a way as to create twobranches 31X in the shoe-holder 31 which are largely symmetrical and between which there is theseat 31B, which is thus slotted. The twobranches 31X can be brought up to one another by means of abolt 63 which traverses thebranches 31X and theslot 61, so as to secure theend 29B of theshaft 29. In this way, any onset of play between theshafts 29 and the shoe-holders 31 is prevented; on the other hand, it is always possible to adjust thebolts 63 to increase or restore tightening. - The grooved profiles of the
shafts 29 and of theseat 31 B may have the shape of a gear toothing. - The
top component 15A of thegearcase 15 forms the side wall, i.e., external wall, 15F of thegearcase 15. From said wall 15F there develops atop wall 115, which is set beneath thefixed flange 3 and forms asurface 115A, with which the O-ring 13 co-operates. - Said
top wall 115 is further developed in a centripetal direction beyond thesurface 115A (the latter surface being provided and used when also the O-ring 13 is adopted). Saidtop wall 115 develops as indicated in particular by 115B to form the seat for a main O-ring 117 of a diameter which is much smaller than that of the possible and optional traditional O-ring 13. Said O-ring 117 is designed to co-operate with thesurface 9A of the element 9. Given the same speed of rotation of thegearcase 15, the speed of sliding of the O-ring 117 on thefixed surface 9A is much lower than the speed of sliding of a traditional O-ring (such as the O-ring 13), which has a much larger diameter than that of the O-ring 117. It follows from this that the O-ring 117 can operate in conditions that are far more favourable than those of an O-ring having a diameter like the one of the O-ring 13 illustrated, and its efficiency is maintained for a much longer time as compared to the relatively very short duration of an O-ring such as the O-ring 13. The advantage is achieved therefrom of an improved functionality of the entire head on account of the presence of said O-ring 117 and on account of the aforesaid conformation obtained by adopting the O-ring 117. The possible retaining of an O-ring such as the O-ring 13 constitutes an aid to the functioning of the O-ring 117, but is not altogether essential.
