Description
- The present invention relates to a piece of machinery for the machining of ceramic articles and by-products thereof.
- These manufactured articles, mainly used in construction, can be made with different ceramic materials which are selected by their different chemical-physical characteristics and mechanical properties.
- As a first approximation one may distinguish among unglazed porous paste ceramic materials, such as bricks or earthenware, glazed porous paste ceramic materials, such as majolica, and, finally, compact paste ceramic materials, such as stoneware and porcelain.
- In any case these materials are known to be machined with machines providing for the use of specific abrasive tools.
- Generally, these tools are disc-shaped elements moved by a special motor. These motors operate at approx. 2800 rpm and are directly connected to the tool associated with a relative spindle.
- Alternatively they can be connected to the tool by means of an inverter that can vary the spindle revs up to a maximum of approx. 5000 rpm.
- The rotation of the tool allows different types of machining of the input material such as grinding, roughing, cutting, etc.
- The strong friction generated by the action of the tool on the manufactured article causes the tool itself to overheat so as to require a control of the temperature by means of appropriate cooling systems.
- Depending on the cooling process there are two types of machining: dry processes and wet processes.
- The latter are necessary when the tool overheating level is such as to make any dry cooling ineffective.
- In dry processes cooling occurs by blowing air directly on the tool. For the removal of the waste material from the work area it is sufficient to provide for a traditional aspiration system.
- In wet processes cooling occurs by spraying water or other liquids on the tool.
- In this case, water combines with waste material, thus producing a waste sludge that must be disposed of in compliance with the criteria established by the law in force.
- Traditional machinery used for dry cooling usually provides differentiated cooling systems for each tool. In particular, to each motor of each tool is connected a cooling unit that takes advantage of part of the work of the motor itself to compress the cooling air to send to the tool via a dedicated connection tube.
- In traditional machines which use conventional tools such as grinding wheels, etc. dry cooling is possible for the machining of porous paste ceramic material which, being less resistant, causes lower tool overheating.
- Dry cooling can also be used in the machining of porcelain stoneware if this takes place at reduced speed which, on the other hand, involves a consequent reduction in the removed material and therefore in productivity.
- For more resistant materials, as is the case of high speed machining of porcelain stoneware, a wet process must be used, resulting in the production of waste sludge to be handled and disposed of.
- A first drawback of traditional machinery used for dry cooling is linked to the fact that at conventional speeds (approx. 2800 rpm) the machining of very resistant materials such as those with compact paste (e.g. porcelain stoneware), involves overheating of the tool and of other mechanical parts, such as the spindle, which are impossible to control with dry cooling. It is therefore necessary to use water or other liquids resulting in the production of waste sludge the handling and disposal of which involve a considerable expenditure in terms of time and resources.
- Furthermore, the machinery of known type provides a differentiated cooling of the tool and of the mechanical parts which support it in rotation, with consequent high construction and maintenance complexity.
- Another drawback of known machinery is linked to the fact that, since each tool is cooled using part of the work produced by the respective motor, a loss of efficiency of the motors themselves is produced with a consequent increase in energy consumption of the production process.
- A further drawback of known machinery is linked to the fact that the tools, directly connected to the motor or by means of an inverter, fail to achieve higher speeds than 5000 rpm. This entails the need, in order to achieve desired production volumes, to use a high number of tools with consequent high energy consumption, high investment costs and large overall dimensions.
EP1932617A1 andDE4015241A1 teach machinery according to the state of the art. - The main aim of the present invention is to provide a piece of machinery which allows an efficient, easy to manufacture and affordable tool cooling.
- Within this aim, one object of the present invention is to simplify, with respect to the machinery of known type, the cooling of the tool and of the mechanical parts which support it in rotation.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a piece of machinery for the machining of ceramic articles which allows to increase the spindle revolution number so as to use tools that achieve top efficiency at significantly higher speeds than those used to now in the ceramic sector.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a piece of machinery which allows using dry processes also in the machining of high resistant ceramic material.
- A further object of the present invention is to provide a piece of machinery which allows to obtain an increase in efficiency and energy savings in the manufacturing process.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a piece of machinery which allows to overcome the mentioned drawbacks of the prior art within the ambit of a simple, rational, easy, effective to use and low cost solution.
- The objects stated above are achieved by the present machinery for the machining of ceramic articles and the like having the characteristics of claim 1.
- Other characteristics and advantages of the present invention will become better evident from the description of a preferred but not exclusive embodiment of a piece of machinery for the machining of ceramic articles and the like, illustrated by way of an indicative, but non-limiting, example in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
-
Figure 1 is a side elevation view of the machinery according to the invention; -
Figure 2 is a side sectional view of a detail of the machinery according to the invention; -
Figure 3 is a front view of a detail according to the invention. - With particular reference to such illustrations, reference number 1 globally designates a piece of machinery for the machining of ceramic articles and the like.
- The piece of machinery 1 for the machining of ceramic articles or the like has a
support frame 2 with which is associated at least amachining device 3 which comprises amotor element 4 associated with thesupport frame 2, atool 5 for the machining of ceramic articles, amotor shaft 10 connected to saidmotor element 4 and supporting thetool 5 in rotation. - The machinery 1 also comprises motion transmission means 8, 9, 11 for transmitting motion from the
motor element 4 to thetool 5. - Alternative embodiments are not ruled out wherein the
tool 5 is directly connected to themotor element 4. - The
support frame 2 comprises abase structure 6 able to hold themachining device 3 in a predetermined working position. - In the embodiment shown in
figure 1 themachining device 3 is fixed to thebase structure 6 so that thetool 5 can work at a height from the ground coinciding with that of the line offorward movement 7 of the ceramic material to be machined. - The
tool 5 is operable in rotation around a respective axis and is kinematically connected to themotor element 4. - The motion transmission means 8, 9, 11 comprise at least a
first pulley 8 associated with themotor element 4, at least asecond pulley 9 associated with ashaft 10, supporting thetool 5 in rotation and abelt element 11 which mutually connects thefirst pulley 8 to thesecond pulley 9. - In this way, by operating the
motor element 4, the rotary motion generated by the same is transmitted from thefirst pulley 8 to thesecond pulley 9 through thebelt element 11 and, therefore, from thesecond pulley 9 to thetool 5 through theshaft 10. - Conveniently, the
second pulley 9 has a smaller diameter than thefirst pulley 8 so as to enable thetool 5 to rotate at a higher speed than the speed of themotor element 4. - Advantageously, the diameter of the
second pulley 9 is sized so that thetool 5 can reach a speed between 5000 and 7000 rpm, i.e. the appropriate speed to allow tools made with very resistant material to work in the most efficient manner. - In the present embodiment, in fact, the
tool 5 is the type of a diamond wheel. - In this way, high resistant ceramic materials, such as porcelain stoneware, can be machined without using wet cooling processes.
- These types of tool, in fact, keep their hardness and resistance characteristics even at high temperatures, without jeopardizing the quality of the machining process.
- As illustrated in
Figure 2 , themachining device 3 comprises acontainment body 12 for containing theshaft 10. - In the present embodiment, the
body 12 is a substantially prismatic casing able to contain theshaft 10. - In particular, between the
body 12 and theshaft 10 is defined agap 13 intended to contain cooling air and having at least an inlet opening 14 and at least an outlet opening 15 for such cooling air. - In particular, cooling air enters the
gap 13 so as to lap and therefore cool the mechanical parts in motion within thebody 12, such as the spindle or bearings that support theshaft 10 in rotation, preserving them from excessive and exhausting overheating due to the mechanical action they are subjected to during operation. - Still with reference to
Figure 2 , there is an outlettubular element 16 associated with the outlet opening 15 and able to convey air from thegap 13 to thetool 5. In particular, thetubular element 16 comprises a first extremity associated with the outlet opening 15 and a second extremity associated with anozzle 17 able to increase the output speed of air. - More particularly, the outlet section of cooling air defined by the
nozzle 17, which is oriented so as to direct the exiting air jet towards thetool 5, is smaller than the transit section defined by thetubular element 16. - In the embodiment illustrated in the figures, the machinery 1 comprises a plurality of
machining devices 3 arranged in series along the line offorward movement 7 of the material to be machined identified witharrow 7. - According to the invention, the machinery 1 has cooling means 18, 19, 22, 23 of the
machining devices 3. - The cooling means 18, 19, 22, 23 provide a
common manifold 18 and compression means 19, where thecommon manifold 18 has aninlet port 20 able to receive cooling air from the compression means 19 and a plurality ofoutlet ports 21 of the cooling air. - In the present embodiment, the compression means 19 are made up of a compressor unit able to send pressurized air into the
common manifold 18. Alternative embodiments are not ruled out wherein the compression means 19 are formed by a turbine or a turbo-compressor unit or the like. - Each of the
outlet ports 21 is connected to the inlet opening 14 of arespective machining device 3 so as to send cooling air into therespective gap 13. - The cooling means 18, 19, 22, 23 also comprise an
inlet conveyor element 22 and a plurality ofoutlet conveyor elements 23. - The
inlet conveyor element 22 is associated with theinlet port 20 so as to connect thecommon manifold 18 to the compression means 19. - Each of the
outlet conveyor elements 23, on the contrary, is able to connect one of theoutlet ports 21 to a respective inlet opening 14, so as to convey cooling air from thecommon manifold 18 to themachining device 3. - In particular, the
inlet conveyor element 22 has a larger section than theoutlet conveyor elements 23. - The sizing of the sections of the
conveyor elements machining device 3. - Alternative embodiments are not ruled out wherein the cooling means 18, 19, 22, 23 are the type of oil cooling means.
- The operation of the present invention is as follows.
- The compression means 19 send compressed air to the
common manifold 18 through theinlet conveyor element 22. - Air in the
common manifold 18, in turn, is distributed into themachining devices 3 by means of theoutlet conveyor elements 23, entering in the correspondinggaps 13. - Subsequently, by means of the
tubular element 16, air is blown on thetool 5 through thenozzle 17. The latter, the outlet section of which is smaller than the section of thetubular element 16, increases the outlet speed of air taking advantage of the well-known "Venturi effect". - At the same time, the
motor element 4 rotates at approx. 2800 rpm and thefirst pulley 8 also rotates with it. By means of thebelt element 11 the rotary motion is transferred to thesecond pulley 9 which, having a smaller diameter than thefirst pulley 8, will rotate at a faster speed, approx. 5000/7000 rpm. Being thetool 5 associated with thesecond pulley 9 by means of theshaft 10, it will also rotate at the same speed as thesecond pulley 9. - It has in practice been found how the described invention achieves the proposed objects and in particular the fact is underlined that the machinery allows efficient cooling of the tools, using the same air to cool the tools and mechanical parts, such as the spindle, which support it in rotation, thereby leading to significant energy savings.
- Therefore, the machinery using this type of tool allows for a cooling of the same by means of dry processes also in the machining of high resistant ceramic material.
- Finally, thanks to the use of the above-mentioned cooling means it is possible to achieve an increase in efficiency and energy savings of the production process, given that one single compressor, or turbine, or the like provides for cooling each tool and the mechanical parts of the respective machining device.
- The machinery, thanks to the use of the motion transmission means described above, allows to rotate the tool also at higher speeds than the rotation speed of the motor that operates it.
- For this reason it is possible to use tools made of very resistant material (such as diamond grinding wheels) and which require, in order to achieve top efficiency, higher rotation speeds than 2800 rpm of the motors used.
- The transmission means making the subject of the present invention thus enable to considerably reduce, compared to machinery of known type, the number of tools used, production capacity being the same, thereby reducing energy consumption, investment costs and overall dimensions of the machine.
