In other words, between the first polishing machine 13 and the second polishing machine 14, a downstream roll 16 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13, an upstream roll 17 corresponding to the second polishing machine 14, and its downstream side. A polishing unit roll 19 is provided between the side roll 16 and the upstream roll 17.

Next, details of the roll for the polishing apparatus will be described.
As shown in FIG. 2, the upstream roll 15 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 includes, for example, an axial core 15a made of a metal material such as stainless steel, and an outer peripheral layer provided on the outer peripheral surface of the axial core 15a. 15b. The outer peripheral layer 15b is made of an elastic material (for example, a rubber material). As for the upstream roll 15, the outer peripheral layer 15b is contacted with the plate-shaped body P on the conveyor 12. FIG.

  Examples of the elastic material constituting the outer peripheral layer 15b include natural or synthetic rubber and elastomer. The hardness of the elastic material is preferably A50 or less in the durometer type A hardness. The hardness of the elastic material is preferably A25 or higher in durometer type A hardness. A method for measuring the durometer type A hardness is defined in JIS K6253-3. The thickness of the outer peripheral layer 15b is, for example, about 1 to 20 mm.

  The outer peripheral layer 15b of the upstream roll 15 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 presses only the intermediate portion of the plate-like body P in the width direction Y orthogonal to the conveyance direction X of the plate-like body P shown in FIG. It is configured. In other words, the outer peripheral layer 15b of the upstream roll 15 is configured not to press both side portions in the width direction Y of the plate-like body P. The dimension in the width direction Y of the outer peripheral layer 15b of the upstream roll 15 is preferably in the range of 50% or more and 90% or less with respect to the full width dimension of the plate-like body P.

  The downstream roll 16 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 and the upstream roll 17 and the downstream roll 18 corresponding to the second polishing machine 14 are also similar to the upstream roll 15 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13, Each has shaft cores 16a, 17a, 18a and outer peripheral layers 16b, 17b, 18b.

  The inter-polishing unit roll 19 has an axial core 19a and an outer peripheral layer 19b, similar to the upstream roll corresponding to the first polishing machine 13. However, the outer peripheral layer 19b of the inter-polishing unit roll 19 is configured to press over the entire width direction Y of the plate-like body P.

  As described above, the upstream roll 15 and the downstream roll 16 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13, and the upstream roll 17 and the downstream roll 18 corresponding to the second polishing machine 14 have the width of the plate-like body P. It is a partial pressing roll that partially presses in the direction Y. On the other hand, the inter-polishing part roll 19 is a full width pressing roll that presses over the entire width direction Y of the plate-like body P.

  An upstream roll 15 and a downstream roll 16 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13, an upstream roll 17 and a downstream roll 18 corresponding to the second polishing machine 14, and an inter-polishing section roll 19 are formed into a plate shape by an urging means. It may be biased toward the body P. Examples of the urging means include a spring and a fluid pressure cylinder.

  The linear pressure at which the inter-polishing part roll 19 that is a full width pressing roll presses the plate-like body P is the linear pressure at which the upstream rolls 15 and 17 and the downstream rolls 16 and 18 that are partial pressing rolls press the plate-like body P. Is preferably lower.

  Note that the upstream roll 15 and the downstream roll 16 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13, the upstream roll 17 and the downstream roll 18 corresponding to the second polishing machine 14, and the inter-polishing section roll 19 are themselves motors or the like. It may be driven to rotate by the driving source of, or may be driven by the conveyor belt 12c (conveyor rolls 12a, 12b) of the conveyor 12.

Next, a method for manufacturing an abrasive article will be described.
The method for producing an abrasive article is a method for obtaining an abrasive article by polishing the plate-like body P on the conveyor 12 capable of transporting the plate-like body P. This manufacturing method includes a polishing step in which the plate-like body P is polished while being pressed toward the conveyor 12 by the polishing roll described above.

  The plate-like body P is transported in the transport direction X while being sandwiched between the conveyor belt 12c and the upstream roll 15 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13. Subsequently, the plate-like body P on the conveyor belt 12c has a downstream roll 16 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13, an inter-polishing section roll 19, an upstream roll 17 and a downstream roll 18 corresponding to the second polishing machine. It is sandwiched in order. At this time, the plate-like body P is polished in the order of the first polishing machine 13 and the second polishing machine 14. The plate-like body P may be polished while the plate-like body P is moved by the conveyor 12, or the conveyance of the plate-like body P may be temporarily stopped.

  For polishing the plate-like body P, a polishing slurry is used according to a conventional method. The polishing slurry used in the first polishing unit 11a of the polishing apparatus 11 may be the same type as the polishing slurry used in the second polishing unit 11b, or may be a different type. The polishing slurry is supplied between the polishing pad and the plate-like body P from the central portion of the polishing pad provided in the first polishing machine 13 and the second polishing machine 14. Note that the polishing pad provided in the first polishing machine 13 may be the same type as the polishing pad provided in the second polishing machine 14 or a different type.

Next, main actions of the roll for the polishing apparatus, the polishing apparatus 11, and the method for manufacturing the abrasive article will be described.
For example, the upstream roll 15 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 has an outer peripheral layer 15b made of an elastic material. The upstream roll 15 configured as described above presses the plate-like body P toward the conveyor 12. At this time, the elastic material constituting the outer peripheral layer 15b of the upstream roll 15 is easily deformed so that agglomerates of abrasive scraps and agglomerates of abrasive grains present on the plate-like body P are pushed in. Thereby, it becomes easy to relieve the force with which the aggregate is pressed against the plate-like body P. Such an effect is similarly exerted in the downstream roll 16 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13, the upstream roll 17 and the downstream roll 18 corresponding to the second polishing machine 14, and the inter-polishing section roll 19.

According to the embodiment detailed above, the following effects are exhibited.
(1) For example, the upstream roll 15 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 includes a conveyor 12 that can transport the plate-like body P and a first polishing machine 13 that polishes the plate-like body P on the conveyor 12. Used in the polishing apparatus 11. The upstream roll 15 is arranged and used so as to press the plate-like body P placed on the conveyor 12 toward the conveyor 12, and has an outer peripheral layer 15b made of an elastic material. ing.

  According to this structure, it becomes easy to relieve | force the force with which aggregates, such as grinding | polishing waste, are pressed with respect to the plate-shaped object P. FIG. Thereby, the plate-like body P to be polished on the conveyor 12 can be suitably pressed toward the conveyor 12. Therefore, it becomes easy to stabilize the quality of the abrasive article obtained by polishing the plate-like body P. Such an effect is also exhibited in the downstream roll 16 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13, the upstream roll 17 and the downstream roll 18 corresponding to the second polishing machine 14, and the inter-polishing section roll 19.

  (2) Both side portions and corner portions in the width direction Y of the plate-like body P are portions that are relatively easily damaged or deformed due to a load. In this regard, for example, the outer peripheral layer 15b of the upstream roll 15 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 presses only the intermediate portion of the plate-like body P in the width direction Y orthogonal to the conveyance direction X of the plate-like body P. It is configured.

  According to this structure, it is advantageous at the point which suppresses the failure | damage or deformation | transformation in the both-sides part and corner part of the plate-shaped object P. FIG. In particular, when a glass plate is polished as the plate-like body P, it is advantageous in that it prevents cracks at the corners of the glass plate.

  Here, in the roll which presses the whole width direction Y of the plate-shaped body P, when suppressing the damage or deformation | transformation in the both sides part and corner part of the plate-shaped body P, it is difficult to raise the pressing force with respect to the plate-shaped body P. It becomes. In this regard, the upstream roll 15 can increase the pressing force when pressing the plate-like body P toward the conveyor 12. Therefore, it is possible to perform polishing in a state where the plate-like body P is held on the conveyor 12 (conveyor belt 12c) more stably. Such an effect is similarly exerted in the downstream roll 16 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 and the upstream roll 17 and the downstream roll 18 corresponding to the second polishing machine 14.

  (3) The polishing apparatus 11 includes a conveyor 12 capable of conveying the plate-like body P, a polishing machine (for example, the first polishing machine 13) for polishing the plate-like body P on the conveyor 12, and the plate-like body P as a conveyor. 12 (for example, the upstream roll 15). The method for manufacturing an abrasive article includes a polishing step in which the plate-like body P is polished while being pressed toward the conveyor 12 by a roll (for example, an upstream roll 15 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13).

  According to such a polishing apparatus 11 and a method for manufacturing an abrasive article, the plate-like body P to be polished on the conveyor 12 is suitably pressed toward the conveyor 12 as described in the section (1) above. Therefore, it becomes easy to stabilize the quality of the abrasive article obtained by polishing the plate-like body P.

  (4) The polishing apparatus 11 includes a first polishing machine 13 and a second polishing machine 14 disposed downstream of the first polishing machine 13. Between the first polishing machine 13 and the second polishing machine 14, a partial pressing roll (corresponding to the first polishing machine 13) is configured so that the outer peripheral layer partially presses the plate-like body P in the width direction Y. An upstream roll 17) corresponding to the downstream roll 16 or the second polishing machine 14 is disposed. In this case, although the effect described in the above section (2) is obtained, the polishing slurry used when the plate-like body P is polished by the first polishing machine 13 together with the plate-like body P is downstream (second polishing portion 11b). ).

  In this regard, the outer peripheral layer is configured to press over the entire width direction Y of the plate-like body P between the first polishing machine 13 and the second polishing machine 14 in the polishing apparatus 11 of the above embodiment. A full-width pressing roll (roller 19 between polishing parts) is disposed.

  When the plate-like body P is conveyed by the conveyor 12, the full-width pressing roll arranged in this way is used to convey the polishing slurry and polishing waste on the plate-like body P toward the second polishing machine 14 downstream. It suppresses that. For this reason, it becomes easy to improve the polishing accuracy when the plate-like body P is polished by the second polishing machine 14.

  It is preferable that the linear pressure at which the full width pressing roll arranged as described above presses the plate-like body P is lower than the linear pressure at which the partial pressing roll presses the plate-like body P. In this case, an excessive load is hardly applied to the plate-like body P.

  (5) It is preferable that the hardness of the elastic material which comprises the outer peripheral layer of the roll for polishing apparatuses is A50 or less in the durometer type A hardness. In this case, it becomes easier to relieve the force with which the agglomerates such as polishing scraps are pressed against the plate-like body P.

(Second Embodiment)
In the second embodiment, since the shape of the outer peripheral layer in the roll for a polishing apparatus is different from that of the first embodiment, the difference will be mainly described. In the second embodiment, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the upstream roll 20 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 in the second embodiment includes an axial core 20a and a pair of outer peripheral layers 20b and 20c spaced apart in the axial direction of the axial core 20a. ing. The outer peripheral layers 20b and 20c of the upstream roll 20 are configured to press only both side portions in the width direction Y of the plate-like body P. In other words, the outer peripheral layers 20b and 20c of the upstream roll 20 are configured not to press the intermediate portion in the width direction Y of the plate-like body P. The distance between the outer circumferential layer 20b and the outer circumferential layer 20c in the axial direction of the upstream roll 20 is preferably in the range of 50% or more and 90% or less with respect to the width of the plate-like body P.

Similarly to the upstream roll 20, the downstream roll 21 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 includes an axial core 21 a and a pair of outer peripheral layers 21 b and 21 c.
The upstream roll 20 and the downstream roll 21 in the present embodiment are partial pressing rolls that partially press the plate-like body P in the width direction Y.

In addition to the effects described in the column (1) of the first embodiment, the roll for polishing apparatus of the present embodiment exhibits the following operational effects.
(6) For example, the outer peripheral layers 20 b and 20 c in the upstream roll 20 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 are configured to press only both side portions in the width direction Y of the plate-like body P. Thereby, between the intermediate part of the plate-shaped body P of the width direction Y and the upstream roll 20 becomes a flow path of the polishing slurry used when polishing the plate-shaped body P. For example, as shown by a broken line arrow in FIG. 3, the polishing slurry can be discharged from the plate-like body P. Thereby, since it becomes difficult to retain polishing scraps etc. on the plate-like body P, it becomes possible to improve the efficiency of polishing, for example. Such an effect is also exhibited in the downstream roll 21 as well.

(Third embodiment)
In the third embodiment, since the shape of the outer peripheral layer in the roll for a polishing apparatus is different from that of the first embodiment, the difference will be mainly described. In 3rd Embodiment, about the structure similar to 1st Embodiment, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and description is abbreviate | omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the upstream roll 22 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 in the third embodiment includes an axial core 22 a and an outer peripheral layer 22 b, and the outer peripheral layer 22 b is in the width direction of the plate-like body P. It is comprised so that it may press over the whole Y. The outer peripheral layer 22 b has a spiral groove 22 c extending in the circumferential direction of the upstream roll 22. The pitch of the spiral grooves 22c in the outer peripheral layer 22b is different between a portion that presses both side portions of the plate-like body P in the width direction Y and a portion that presses an intermediate portion of the plate-like body P in the width direction Y. The pitch of the portion that presses both side portions in the width direction Y of the body P is configured to be narrower than the pitch of the portion that presses the intermediate portion in the width direction Y of the plate-like body P.

The downstream roll 23 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 also includes an axial core 23 a and an outer peripheral layer 23 b, and the outer peripheral layer 23 b has a groove 23 c having the same shape as the upstream roll 22.
In addition to the effects described in the column (1) of the first embodiment, the roll for polishing apparatus of the present embodiment exhibits the following effects.

  (7) For example, since the outer peripheral layer 22b in the upstream roll 22 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 has a groove 22c extending in the circumferential direction of the upstream roll 22, the groove 22c causes the upstream roll 22 to The outer peripheral layer 22b becomes easier to deform. Thereby, it becomes easy to relieve | force the force with which aggregates, such as grinding | polishing waste, are pressed with respect to the plate-shaped object P. FIG. Accordingly, the plate-like body P to be polished on the conveyor 12 can be suitably pressed toward the conveyor 12. Such an effect is also exhibited in the downstream roll 23 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13.

  (8) For example, the outer peripheral layer 22b in the upstream roll 22 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 is configured to press over the entire width direction Y of the plate-like body P, and the circumferential direction of the upstream roll 22 A spiral groove 22c extending to the surface. Since the spiral groove 22c is set to the pitch as described above, the hardness of the portion that presses both side portions in the width direction Y of the plate-like body P in the outer peripheral layer 22b is reduced. Thereby, it is possible to suppress breakage or deformation at both side portions of the plate-like body P. Such an effect is also exhibited in the downstream roll 23 as well.

(Example of change)
The above embodiment may be modified as follows.
In the first embodiment, for example, the outer peripheral layer 15b of the upstream roll 15 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 has a size smaller than the size in the width direction Y of the plate-like body P. The dimension larger than the dimension in the width direction Y of the body P may be sufficient. That is, it can also be configured as a roll that presses only the intermediate portion in the width direction Y of the plate-like body P by partially changing the outer diameter of the roll.

  In the first embodiment, any one of the downstream roll 16 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 and the upstream roll 17 corresponding to the second polishing machine 14 may be omitted. For example, the downstream roll 16 corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 may be omitted, and the downstream roll corresponding to the first polishing machine 13 may also be used as the upstream roll 17 corresponding to the second polishing machine 14. .
