特許第4189010号Patent No. 4189010

上記の遠心バレル研磨機は、バレル本体と蓋を組み付け状態に固定する手段として、バレル本体の上端部外周のフランジ部と、蓋の外周縁部とを、ボルトとナットの締付けによって結合するようになっている。このボルトによる固定構造は、周方向に間隔を空けた複数箇所に設ける必要がある。そのため、バレル本体と蓋を固定する場合にも、バレル本体から蓋を外す場合にも、複数のボルトを締め付け又は緩めるという手間の掛かる作業を行う必要があった。   The above-described centrifugal barrel polishing machine is configured such that the flange portion on the outer periphery of the upper end of the barrel body and the outer peripheral edge of the lid are coupled by tightening the bolt and the nut as a means for fixing the barrel body and the lid in an assembled state. It has become. The bolt fixing structure needs to be provided at a plurality of circumferentially spaced locations. Therefore, even when fixing the barrel main body and the lid, and when removing the lid from the barrel main body, it has been necessary to carry out a time-consuming operation of tightening or loosening a plurality of bolts.

本発明は上記のような事情に基づいて完成されたものであって、蓋をバレル本体に対して着脱する際の作業性向上を図ることを目的とする。   The present invention is completed based on the above circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to improve workability when attaching and detaching a lid to and from a barrel body.

本発明は、
上下方向の回転軸を中心として回転駆動されるターレットと、
上面に開口部を有するバレル本体と前記開口部を開閉する蓋とを備え、前記ターレットの偏心位置に自転可能に設けられて遊星回転する複数のバレル槽と、
複数の前記蓋の上面と対向可能な押圧部材と、
前記押圧部材を介して前記複数の蓋に下向きの弾性押圧力を付与可能な閉蓋用弾性部材とを備えているところに特徴を有する。
The present invention
A turret which is driven to rotate about a vertical rotation axis;
A plurality of barrel tanks provided with a barrel main body having an opening on the upper surface and a lid for opening and closing the opening, and rotatably provided at an eccentric position of the turret for planetary rotation;
A pressing member capable of facing the upper surfaces of the plurality of lids;
It has a feature in the point provided with the elastic member for closures which can give downward elastic pressure to said lids via said pressing member.

蓋をバレル本体の上面の開口部に被せ、押圧部材を介して閉蓋用弾性部材の弾性押圧力を蓋に付与すれば、蓋はバレル本体に固定される。ボルトとナットの締付けによって蓋をバレル本体に固定する場合に比べると、バレル本体に対する蓋の着脱作業の作業性に優れている。   The lid is fixed to the barrel main body by covering the opening on the upper surface of the barrel main body and applying the elastic pressing force of the closing lid elastic member to the lid through the pressing member. Compared with the case where the lid is fixed to the barrel body by tightening the bolt and the nut, the workability of attaching and detaching the lid to the barrel body is excellent.

本発明は、前記押圧部材を、前記蓋に対して前記閉蓋用弾性部材の弾性押圧力を付与する押圧位置と、前記押圧位置から上方へ退避して前記蓋を前記閉蓋用弾性部材による弾性押圧力から解放する押圧解除位置との間で昇降させる昇降機構を備えていてもよい。この構成によれば、手作業で弾性押圧力を解除する必要がないので、蓋の開閉やバレル槽の着脱の作業性が良い。   The present invention retracts the pressing member to the pressing position by applying the elastic pressing force of the closing lid elastic member to the lid, and retracts the lid from the pressing position upward by the closing lid elastic member. You may provide the raising / lowering mechanism which raises / lowers between the press release positions released from elastic pressing force. According to this configuration, since it is not necessary to manually release the elastic pressing force, the workability of opening and closing the lid and attaching and detaching the barrel tank is good.

本発明は、前記ターレットに直結して設けられ、前記ターレットを回転駆動する公転用駆動機構と、前記押圧部材が前記押圧位置にあるときには前記押圧部材を前記ターレットに対し同期回転可能に連結し、前記押圧部材が前記押圧解除位置にあるときには前記押圧部材と前記ターレットとの連結を解除する連結部とを備えていてもよい。公転用駆動機構を押圧部材に直結して設けた場合、押圧部材を昇降させる昇降機構の構造が複雑になることが懸念されるが、押圧部材とターレットの連結と連結解除が可能な連結部を設け、公転用駆動機構をターレットに直結したことにより、昇降機構を簡素化することが実現できる。   In the present invention, a revolving drive mechanism, which is provided directly connected to the turret, and rotationally drives the turret, and the pressing member is synchronously rotatably connected to the turret when the pressing member is in the pressing position, The pressing member may include a connecting portion that releases the connection between the pressing member and the turret when the pressing member is in the pressing release position. If the revolving drive mechanism is directly connected to the pressing member, there is a concern that the structure of the lifting mechanism for raising and lowering the pressing member may be complicated, but a connecting portion capable of coupling and releasing the coupling between the pressing member and the turret By providing the revolving drive mechanism directly connected to the turret, the elevation mechanism can be simplified.

本発明は、前記押圧部材が、前記蓋を押さえた状態で前記バレル槽に追従して遊星回転可能とされていてもよい。この構成によれば、押圧部材から蓋に対して弾性押圧力が付与されても、押圧部材はバレル槽に追従して遊星回転するので、バレル槽の自転が妨げられる、という虞はない。   In the present invention, the pressing member may be made to be capable of planetary rotation following the barrel tank in a state in which the lid is pressed. According to this configuration, even if an elastic pressing force is applied to the lid from the pressing member, the pressing member follows the barrel tank and performs planetary rotation, and there is no possibility that the rotation of the barrel tank is hindered.

本発明は、前記蓋と前記押圧部材との接触領域に設けられ、弾性変形可能な偏心吸収部材を備えていてもよい。この構成によれば、偏心吸収部材が弾性変形することにより、バレル槽の自転軸と押圧部材の回転中心との間の芯ずれを吸収することができる。   In the present invention, an elastically deformable eccentric absorbing member may be provided in the contact area between the lid and the pressing member. According to this configuration, it is possible to absorb misalignment between the rotation axis of the barrel tank and the rotation center of the pressing member by elastically deforming the eccentric absorption member.

本発明は、前記押圧部材に弾性変形可能に設けられ、前記押圧部材と前記蓋との間の上下の位置ずれを吸収可能な位置ずれ吸収部材を備えていてもよい。この構成によれば、位置ずれ吸収部材が弾性変形することにより、押圧部材と蓋との間の上下方向の位置ずれが吸収されるので、蓋をバレル本体に対して確実に固定することができる。   The present invention may be provided with a displacement absorbing member which is provided on the pressing member so as to be elastically deformable and which can absorb the vertical displacement between the pressing member and the lid. According to this configuration, since the positional displacement between the pressing member and the lid is absorbed by elastically deforming the positional displacement absorbing member, the lid can be reliably fixed to the barrel main body. .

本発明は、複数の前記押圧部材を一体的に公転可能に設けた押圧モジュールを備えていてもよい。この構成によれば、複数の押圧部材に個別に対応する複数の閉蓋用弾性部材を設ける場合に比べると、部品点数が少なくて済む。   The present invention may include a pressing module in which a plurality of the pressing members are integrally provided to be able to revolve. According to this configuration, the number of parts can be reduced as compared with the case where the plurality of closing elastic members individually corresponding to the plurality of pressing members are provided.

図5に示すように、押圧部材48は、軸受部47内に貫通状態で取り付けられた従動軸49と、従動軸49の下端部に取り付けられた可動押圧体54と、可動押圧体54に一体的に取り付けられた緩衝部材50と、第2スプリング51(請求項に記載の位置ずれ吸収部材)とを備えている。従動軸49は、軸受部47に対し、相対回転可能であるが、軸線方向(上下方向)への相対移動は規制されている。従動軸49の上端部にはストッパ52が一体的に取り付けられている。ストッパ52は、軸受部47の内周に設けたベアリング53の上端に対し上から係止することで、従動軸49が下方へ移動することを規制する。   As shown in FIG. 5, the pressing member 48 is integral with the driven shaft 49 attached in a penetrating manner in the bearing portion 47, the movable pressing body 54 attached to the lower end of the driven shaft 49, and the movable pressing body 54. And a second spring 51 (displacement absorbing member described in the claims). The driven shaft 49 is rotatable relative to the bearing portion 47, but relative movement in the axial direction (vertical direction) is restricted. A stopper 52 is integrally attached to the upper end of the driven shaft 49. The stopper 52 locks the upper end of the bearing 53 provided on the inner periphery of the bearing portion 47 from above, thereby restricting the downward movement of the driven shaft 49.

軸受部47より下方の領域においては、従動軸49の下端部に、従動軸49と同心の概ね円板状をなす可動押圧体54が設けられている。可動押圧体54は、従動軸49に対し、相対回転は規制されているが、上下方向の相対移動は許容されている。同じく軸受部47より下方の領域には、第2回転バネ受け55が、軸受部47の内周に設けたベアリング56の下端に対し下から当接した状態で設けられている。第2回転バネ受け55は、従動軸49と一体的に回転し得るようになっている。可動押圧体54の上面と第2回転バネ受け55の下面との間には、圧縮コイルバネからなる第2スプリング51が従動軸49を包囲した状態で設けられている。第2スプリング51の弾力(付勢力)により、第2回転バネ受け55が軸受部47の下端に対し下から当接し、可動押圧体54が下方へ付勢されている。   In a region below the bearing portion 47, the lower end portion of the driven shaft 49 is provided with a movable pressing body 54 having a substantially disc shape concentric with the driven shaft 49. Although relative rotation of the movable pressing body 54 is restricted with respect to the driven shaft 49, relative movement in the vertical direction is permitted. Similarly, in a region below the bearing portion 47, a second rotary spring receiver 55 is provided in contact with the lower end of the bearing 56 provided on the inner periphery of the bearing portion 47 from below. The second rotary spring receiver 55 can rotate integrally with the driven shaft 49. A second spring 51 made of a compression coil spring is provided between the upper surface of the movable pressing body 54 and the lower surface of the second rotary spring support 55 so as to surround the driven shaft 49. Due to the elastic force (biasing force) of the second spring 51, the second rotary spring receiver 55 abuts against the lower end of the bearing portion 47 from below, and the movable pressing body 54 is biased downward.

可動押圧体54の下面には、円環状(ドーナツ形)の緩衝部材50が固着されている。緩衝部材50は、従動軸49と一体的に回転するとともに、従動軸49に対し相対的に上下動する。緩衝部材50はポリアセタール樹脂(POM)からなる。ポリアセタール樹脂は、蓋37の上面に固着されている偏心吸収部材39の材料であるウレタン樹脂に対して密着性が低いという特性を有する。したがって、蓋37をバレル本体31から外す際に、緩衝部材50が偏心吸収部材39に貼り付いて密着したままになる、という虞はない。   An annular (donut-shaped) buffer member 50 is fixed to the lower surface of the movable pressing body 54. The buffer member 50 rotates integrally with the driven shaft 49 and moves up and down relative to the driven shaft 49. The buffer member 50 is made of polyacetal resin (POM). The polyacetal resin has a characteristic that the adhesion is low with respect to the urethane resin which is a material of the eccentric absorption member 39 fixed to the upper surface of the lid 37. Therefore, when the lid 37 is removed from the barrel main body 31, there is no possibility that the buffer member 50 will stick to the eccentric absorption member 39 and remain in close contact.

4つの押圧部材48(従動軸49)は、回転軸13と同心の円周上に90°の等角度間隔を空けて配置されている。上記した4つのバレル槽30(自転軸24)も、回転軸13と同心の円周上に等角度間隔を空けて配置されている。4つの押圧部材48の配置円と4つのバレル槽30の配置円は径寸法が同一である。したがって、押圧モジュール41がターレット15に対して相対回転すると、平面視において、4つの押圧部材48を4つのバレル槽30に対して同軸状に配置することができる。また、4つの押圧部材48が4つのバレル槽30に対して45°ずれた位置関係になると、平面視において、アーム部46(可動部材42)は、バレル槽30と非干渉の領域(バレル槽30と全く重ならない領域)に位置する。   The four pressing members 48 (following shafts 49) are arranged at equal angular intervals of 90 ° on the circumference concentric with the rotating shaft 13. The four barrel tanks 30 (rotational axes 24) described above are also arranged at equal angular intervals on the circumference concentric with the rotation axis 13. The arrangement circle of the four pressing members 48 and the arrangement circle of the four barrel tanks 30 have the same diameter. Therefore, when the pressing module 41 rotates relative to the turret 15, the four pressing members 48 can be arranged coaxially with the four barrel vessels 30 in a plan view. Further, when the four pressing members 48 are displaced 45 ° with respect to the four barrel tanks 30, in a plan view, the arm 46 (the movable member 42) does not interfere with the barrel tank 30 (barrel tank) 30) in the area not overlapping at all.

<第1スプリング57(閉蓋用弾性部材)>
回転軸13のうち押圧モジュール41の従動側筒部43より上方の位置には、第1回転バネ受け58が設けられている。第1回転バネ受け58は、回転軸13に対し、相対回転を可能に、且つ回転軸13に対して軸線方向(上下方向)の相対移動を規制された状態で外嵌されている。第1回転バネ受け58の下面と、押圧モジュール41の従動側筒部43の上端面との間には、圧縮コイルバネからなる第1スプリング57が回転軸13を包囲した状態で設けられている。第1スプリング57は、押圧モジュール41を下方へ付勢する機能を有する。
<First spring 57 (elastic member for closing lid)>
A first rotary spring receiver 58 is provided at a position of the rotary shaft 13 above the driven cylindrical portion 43 of the pressing module 41. The first rotary spring receiver 58 is externally fitted to the rotary shaft 13 in such a manner that relative rotation is possible and relative movement of the rotary shaft 13 in the axial direction (vertical direction) is restricted. A first spring 57 formed of a compression coil spring is provided between the lower surface of the first rotary spring receiver 58 and the upper end surface of the driven cylindrical portion 43 of the pressing module 41 so as to surround the rotary shaft 13. The first spring 57 has a function of biasing the pressing module 41 downward.

<昇降機構60>
図1〜3に示すように、昇降機構60は、シリンダ装置61と、揺動アーム63と、昇降部材67とを備えて構成されている。シリンダ装置61は、ターレット15及び押圧モジュール41の後方に配置され、軸線を上下方向に向けて上方へ突出したロッド62を有している。揺動アーム63は、全体として前後方向に延びた形態であり、揺動アーム63の後端部は、ロッド62の上端部に相対回転可能に連結されている。揺動アーム63は、その前端に近い位置を中央フレーム11に設けた左右方向の揺動軸64に支持することにより、シーソー状に揺動し得るように設けられている。
<Lifting mechanism 60>
As shown to FIGS. 1-3, the raising / lowering mechanism 60 is provided with the cylinder apparatus 61, the rocking arm 63, and the raising / lowering member 67, and is comprised. The cylinder device 61 is disposed to the rear of the turret 15 and the pressing module 41, and has a rod 62 which protrudes upward with its axis directed vertically. The swinging arm 63 generally extends in the front-rear direction, and the rear end of the swinging arm 63 is connected to the upper end of the rod 62 so as to be relatively rotatable. The swinging arm 63 is provided so as to be able to swing in a seesaw shape by supporting the swinging shaft 64 in the left and right direction provided on the central frame 11 at a position close to the front end thereof.

中央フレーム11にはブラケット65が固定され、ブラケット65には上下方向のガイドバー66が設けられている。ガイドバー66には昇降部材67が上下動可能に取り付けられている。昇降部材67には、揺動アーム63の前端部が長孔を介して相対変位可能に連結されている。シリンダ装置61を駆動してロッド62を伸長させると、揺動アーム63の前端部が下方へ変位するので、昇降部材67がガイドバー66にガイドされて下降する。シリンダ装置61を駆動してロッド62を収縮させると、昇降部材67がガイドバー66にガイドされて上昇する。   A bracket 65 is fixed to the central frame 11 and a guide bar 66 in the vertical direction is provided on the bracket 65. A lift member 67 is attached to the guide bar 66 so as to be movable up and down. The front end portion of the swing arm 63 is connected to the raising and lowering member 67 via a long hole so as to be capable of relative displacement. When the cylinder device 61 is driven to extend the rod 62, the front end portion of the swinging arm 63 is displaced downward, so the elevating member 67 is guided by the guide bar 66 and descends. When the cylinder device 61 is driven to contract the rod 62, the elevating member 67 is guided by the guide bar 66 and ascends.

昇降部材67には、左右一対の支承部68が設けられている。一対の支承部68は、押圧モジュール41の従動側筒部43の上端部外周に対し、左右から挟むように対向する位置関係となっている。昇降部材67がその昇降ストロークにおける最下端に位置する状態では、第1スプリング57の弾力(付勢力)により、従動側筒部43が駆動側筒部16の上端に当接し、支承部68が従動側筒部43の係止突起45から下方へ離間する。また、昇降部材67が昇降ストロークの最上端に位置する状態では、支承部68が係止突起45を下から支承し、従動側筒部43(押圧モジュール41)が駆動側筒部16(ターレット15)の上端より上方の高さまで上昇する。このときの上下方向における押圧部材48(押圧モジュール41)の高さを、押圧解除位置(図3を参照)と定義する。   The lifting member 67 is provided with a pair of left and right bearings 68. The pair of support portions 68 is in a positional relationship opposite to the outer periphery of the upper end portion of the driven-side cylindrical portion 43 of the pressing module 41 so as to be sandwiched from the left and right. In a state where the elevating member 67 is positioned at the lowermost end in the elevating stroke, the driven side cylindrical portion 43 abuts on the upper end of the drive side cylindrical portion 16 by the elastic force (biasing force) of the first spring 57, and the support portion 68 is driven. It is separated downward from the locking projection 45 of the side cylindrical portion 43. Further, in a state where the raising and lowering member 67 is positioned at the uppermost end of the raising and lowering stroke, the support portion 68 supports the locking projection 45 from below, and the driven side cylindrical portion 43 (pressing module 41) Rising to a height above the top of). The height of the pressing member 48 (pressing module 41) in the vertical direction at this time is defined as a pressing release position (see FIG. 3).

また、押圧モジュール41が押圧解除位置にあるときは、押圧モジュール41とターレット15は相対回転可能である。押圧モジュール41が押圧解除位置にあり、4つの押圧部材48と4つのバレル槽30が同軸となる位置関係で、押圧モジュール41を下降させると、押圧モジュール41の従動側連結部44がターレット15の駆動側連結部18に対し上から嵌合し、押圧モジュール41(従動側筒部43)とターレット15(駆動側筒部16)とが一体回転可能に連結された状態となる。   When the pressing module 41 is in the pressing release position, the pressing module 41 and the turret 15 can be rotated relative to each other. When the pressing module 41 is lowered with the pressing module 41 in the pressing release position and the four pressing members 48 and the four barrel tanks 30 being coaxial, the driven side connecting portion 44 of the pressing module 41 becomes the turret 15 The drive-side connecting portion 18 is fitted from above, and the pressing module 41 (the driven-side cylindrical portion 43) and the turret 15 (the driving-side cylindrical portion 16) are integrally rotatably coupled.

<実施例1の遠心バレル研磨機Gの作用>
バレル研磨を行う際には、昇降機構60を起動して押圧モジュール41を押圧解除位置へ上昇させ、公転用駆動機構23を起動してターレット15を45°回転させ、図4に実線で示すように、アーム部46をバレル槽30に対して周方向にずれた位置へ変位させておく。この状態で、作業者の手作業により、バレルケース28内のバレル槽30を持ち上げて取り出し、蓋37をバレル本体31から外してバレル本体31内のワーク(図示省略)と研磨石(図示省略)を回収する。
<Function of Centrifugal Barrel Polishing Machine G of Example 1>
When barrel polishing is performed, the lifting mechanism 60 is activated to raise the pressing module 41 to the pressing release position, and the revolving drive mechanism 23 is activated to rotate the turret 15 by 45 °, as shown by a solid line in FIG. In addition, the arm portion 46 is displaced to a position deviated in the circumferential direction with respect to the barrel tank 30. In this state, the operator manually lifts and takes out the barrel tank 30 in the barrel case 28, removes the lid 37 from the barrel main body 31, and works (not shown) and abrasive stones (not shown) in the barrel main body 31. Recover.

この後、バレル研磨を行う際には、空になっているバレル本体31内にワークと研磨石を投入し、そのバレル本体31をバレルケース28内に収容し、バレル本体31の上面の開口部34に蓋37を被せる。バレルケース28内のバレル本体31に蓋37を載せるまでの工程は、作業者が手作業で行う。   Thereafter, when barrel polishing is performed, the work and the polishing stone are put into the empty barrel main body 31, the barrel main body 31 is accommodated in the barrel case 28, and the opening of the upper surface of the barrel main body 31 34 is covered with a lid 37. The operator manually performs the process of placing the lid 37 on the barrel body 31 in the barrel case 28.

この後、公転用駆動機構23を起動してターレット15を45°回転させ、4つのバレル槽30を4つの押圧部材48に対し同軸状となるように移動させる。次に、昇降機構60を起動し、第1スプリング57の弾力によって押圧モジュール41を下降させる。押圧モジュール41が下降する過程では、4つの緩衝部材50の下面が蓋37の偏心吸収部材39の上面に面当たり状態で当接する。押圧部材48が偏心吸収部材39に当接して下降を規制されたときの、上下方向における押圧部材48の高さを、押圧位置(図1,2,10を参照)と定義する。   After that, the revolving drive mechanism 23 is activated to rotate the turret 15 by 45 °, and the four barrel tanks 30 are moved so as to be coaxial with the four pressing members 48. Next, the lifting mechanism 60 is activated, and the pressing module 41 is lowered by the elasticity of the first spring 57. In the process of lowering the pressing module 41, the lower surfaces of the four buffer members 50 abut against the upper surface of the eccentric absorbing member 39 of the lid 37 in a face-to-face contact state. The height of the pressing member 48 in the vertical direction when the pressing member 48 abuts on the eccentric absorbing member 39 and is regulated to be lowered is defined as a pressing position (see FIGS. 1, 2 and 10).

押圧部材48が蓋37の上面に当接して下降を停止した後も、可動部材42は、第1スプリング57の弾力(付勢力)により昇降部材67と一体となって下降を続ける。この間、第1スプリング57の弾力は減少していくが、蓋37に当接した押圧部材48は下降を停止するので、第2スプリング51の弾力は増大していく。従動側筒部43の下端が駆動側筒部16の上端に突き当たったところで、可動部材42の下降が停止し、それ以降は、昇降部材67だけが下降する。   Even after the pressing member 48 abuts on the upper surface of the lid 37 and stops the descent, the movable member 42 continues to descend integrally with the elevating member 67 by the elastic force (biasing force) of the first spring 57. During this time, although the elasticity of the first spring 57 decreases, the pressing member 48 in contact with the lid 37 stops lowering, so the elasticity of the second spring 51 increases. When the lower end of the driven-side cylindrical portion 43 abuts on the upper end of the drive-side cylindrical portion 16, the descent of the movable member 42 is stopped, and thereafter only the elevating member 67 is lowered.

可動部材42が昇降部材67と一体的に下降する過程では、従動側筒部43の下端が駆動側筒部16の上端に突き当たる直前で、従動側連結部44が、駆動側連結部18に対し周方向への相対変位を規制された状態で嵌合される。従動側連結部44と駆動側連結部18の嵌合により、押圧モジュール41とターレット15とが一体回転し得るように連結される。押圧部材48が押圧位置にあり、押圧モジュール41とターレット15とが連結された状態では、昇降機構60の支承部68が押圧モジュール41の係止突起45から下方へ外れるので、押圧モジュール41は、昇降部材67と干渉することなく回転することができる。   In the process in which the movable member 42 integrally descends with the elevating member 67, the driven side connecting portion 44 is in contact with the driving side connecting portion 18 immediately before the lower end of the driven side cylindrical portion 43 abuts the upper end of the driving side cylindrical portion 16 It fits in the state where the relative displacement to the circumferential direction was regulated. The press module 41 and the turret 15 are connected so as to be able to rotate integrally with each other by the engagement of the driven side connection portion 44 and the drive side connection portion 18. In the state where the pressing member 48 is in the pressing position and the pressing module 41 and the turret 15 are connected, the support portion 68 of the elevating mechanism 60 is disengaged downward from the locking projection 45 of the pressing module 41. It can rotate without interfering with the lifting member 67.

押圧部材48が押圧位置に保持されている状態では、第1スプリング57の付勢力と4つの第2スプリング51の付勢力が、可動部材42と4つの可動押圧体54を介すことにより4つの蓋37に対し下向きの押圧力として作用する。この下向きの弾性押圧力により、蓋37が、バレル本体31に対し、内上がりを規制され、且つ相対回転や水平方向への位置ずれを規制された状態に固定される。   In a state where the pressing member 48 is held at the pressing position, the biasing force of the first spring 57 and the biasing force of the four second springs 51 are four through the movable member 42 and the four movable pressing members 54. It acts as a downward pressing force on the lid 37. By the downward elastic pressing force, the lid 37 is restricted from rising inside with respect to the barrel main body 31, and is fixed in a state where relative rotation and positional deviation in the horizontal direction are restricted.

尚、押圧部材48が押圧位置にある状態では、4つのバレルケース28内におけるバレル槽30の高さにバラツキがあると、蓋37(偏心吸収部材39)の上面の高さにバラツキが生じる。しかし、この高さのバラツキは、第2スプリング51の弾性変形によって吸収されるので、押圧部材48の緩衝部材50と蓋37の偏心吸収部材39との間に隙間が生じることはない。したがって、押圧部材48から蓋37に対して下向きの弾性押圧力が常に作用する。   In the state where the pressing member 48 is in the pressing position, if the height of the barrel tank 30 in the four barrel cases 28 varies, the height of the upper surface of the lid 37 (eccentric absorbing member 39) varies. However, since the variation in height is absorbed by the elastic deformation of the second spring 51, no gap is generated between the buffer member 50 of the pressing member 48 and the eccentric absorbing member 39 of the lid 37. Therefore, a downward elastic pressing force always acts on the lid 37 from the pressing member 48.

また、押圧部材48が押圧位置にある状態(蓋37をバレル本体31に固定した状態)では、第1スプリング57が押圧モジュール41を介して4つの蓋37に付与する弾性押圧力は、4つの第2スプリング51が4つの蓋37に個別に付与する4つの弾性押圧力の総力(合力)より大きい値となっている。このように第1スプリング57と第2スプリング51のバネ定数を設定したことにより、4つの第2スプリング51の弾性変形量にばらつきがあっても、第1スプリング57の弾性変形量に変動はなく、押圧モジュール41の可動部材42が上下方向へ位置ずれすることはない。   When the pressing member 48 is in the pressing position (the lid 37 is fixed to the barrel main body 31), the elastic pressing force applied by the first spring 57 to the four lids 37 via the pressing module 41 is four. The second spring 51 has a value larger than the total force (total force) of the four elastic pressing forces individually applied to the four lids 37. By setting the spring constants of the first spring 57 and the second spring 51 in this manner, even if there is variation in the amount of elastic deformation of the four second springs 51, there is no variation in the amount of elastic deformation of the first spring 57. The movable member 42 of the pressing module 41 is not displaced in the vertical direction.

バレル研磨が終了した後は、ターレット15と押圧モジュール41の回転方向の向きをセンサ(図示省略)により検出し、周方向において押圧モジュール41の係止突起45が昇降機構60の支承部68と整合する位置で、ターレット15と押圧モジュール41を停止させる。この後、昇降機構60を起動して支承部68で係止突起45を下から持ち上げ、押圧部材48(押圧モジュール41)を押圧解除位置まで上昇させ、ターレット15を45°回転させる。この後は、バレル槽30をバレルケース28から取り出して研磨済みのワークと研磨石を回収すればよい。   After the barrel polishing is completed, the direction of the rotational direction of the turret 15 and the pressing module 41 is detected by a sensor (not shown), and the locking projection 45 of the pressing module 41 is aligned with the support portion 68 of the elevating mechanism 60 in the circumferential direction. At this position, the turret 15 and the pressing module 41 are stopped. Thereafter, the lifting mechanism 60 is activated to lift the locking projection 45 from below by the support portion 68, and the pressing member 48 (pressing module 41) is lifted to the pressing release position, and the turret 15 is rotated 45 °. After this, the barrel tank 30 may be removed from the barrel case 28 to recover the polished work and the polishing stone.

<遠心バレル研磨機Gの効果>
本実施例1の遠心バレル研磨機Gは、上下方向の回転軸13を中心として回転駆動されるターレット15と、上面に開口部34を有するバレル本体31と開口部34を開閉する蓋37とを備え、ターレット15の偏心位置に自転可能に設けられて遊星回転する複数のバレル槽30と、複数の蓋37の上面と対向可能な押圧部材48と、押圧部材48を介して複数の蓋37に下向きの弾性押圧力を付与可能な第1スプリング57とを備えている。
<Effect of Centrifugal Barrel Polishing Machine G>
The centrifugal barrel polishing machine G according to the first embodiment includes a turret 15 which is rotationally driven about a rotating shaft 13 in the vertical direction, a barrel main body 31 having an opening 34 on the upper surface, and a lid 37 for opening and closing the opening 34. The plurality of barrel tanks 30 rotatably provided at the eccentric position of the turret 15 and capable of planetary rotation, a pressing member 48 capable of facing the upper surfaces of the plurality of lids 37, and the plurality of lids 37 via the pressing members 48 And a first spring 57 capable of applying a downward elastic pressure.

この構成によれば、蓋37をバレル本体31の上面の開口部34に被せ、押圧部材48を介して第1スプリング57の弾性押圧力を蓋37に付与すれば、蓋37はバレル本体31に固定される。ボルトとナットの締付けによって蓋37をバレル本体31に固定する場合に比べると、バレル本体31に対する蓋37の着脱作業の作業性に優れている。   According to this configuration, if the lid 37 is placed over the opening 34 on the upper surface of the barrel main body 31 and the elastic pressing force of the first spring 57 is applied to the lid 37 via the pressing member 48, the lid 37 can be attached to the barrel main body 31 It is fixed. Compared with the case where the lid 37 is fixed to the barrel main body 31 by tightening the bolt and the nut, the workability of attaching and detaching the lid 37 to the barrel main body 31 is excellent.

また、遠心バレル研磨機Gに設けられている昇降機構60は、押圧部材48を、蓋37に対して第1スプリング57の弾性押圧力を付与する押圧位置と、押圧位置から上方へ退避して蓋37を第1スプリング57による弾性押圧力から解放する押圧解除位置との間で昇降させる装置である。このような昇降機構60を設けたことにより、手作業で弾性押圧力を解除する必要がなくなったので、蓋37の開閉やバレル槽30の着脱の作業性が良い。   Further, the lifting mechanism 60 provided in the centrifugal barrel polishing machine G retracts the pressing member 48 upward from the pressing position and the pressing position for applying the elastic pressing force of the first spring 57 to the lid 37. This is a device for moving the lid 37 up and down between a pressure release position where the lid 37 is released from the elastic pressing force by the first spring 57. By providing such a lifting mechanism 60, there is no need to manually release the elastic pressing force, and therefore, the workability of opening and closing the lid 37 and attaching and detaching the barrel tank 30 is good.

また、遠心バレル研磨機Gは、ターレット15に直結して設けられ、ターレット15を回転駆動する公転用駆動機構23を備えている。また、ターレット15には駆動側連結部18が設けられ、押圧モジュール41には従動側連結部44が設けられている。駆動側連結部18と従動側連結部44は、押圧部材48が押圧位置にあるときには押圧部材48(押圧モジュール41)をターレット15に対し同期回転可能に連結し、押圧部材48が押圧解除位置にあるときには押圧部材48(押圧モジュール41)とターレット15との連結を解除する。   In addition, the centrifugal barrel polishing machine G is provided directly connected to the turret 15 and includes a revolving drive mechanism 23 that rotationally drives the turret 15. Further, the turret 15 is provided with a drive side connecting portion 18, and the pressing module 41 is provided with a driven side connecting portion 44. When the pressing member 48 is in the pressing position, the drive-side connecting portion 18 and the driven-side connecting portion 44 connect the pressing member 48 (pressing module 41) to the turret 15 so as to synchronously rotate, and the pressing member 48 is in the pressing release position. At this time, the connection between the pressing member 48 (the pressing module 41) and the turret 15 is released.

この構成の技術的意義は、次の通りである。公転用駆動機構23を押圧部材48に直結して設けると、押圧部材48を昇降させる昇降機構60の構造が複雑になることが懸念される。そこで、押圧部材48とターレット15の連結と連結解除が可能な連結部(駆動側連結部18と従動側連結部44)を設け、公転用駆動機構23をターレット15に直結した。これにより、昇降機構60を簡素化することが実現できた。   The technical significance of this configuration is as follows. If the revolving drive mechanism 23 is provided directly to the pressing member 48, there is a concern that the structure of the elevating mechanism 60 for moving the pressing member 48 up and down becomes complicated. Therefore, a connecting portion (the driving side connecting portion 18 and the driven side connecting portion 44) capable of connecting and releasing the connection between the pressing member 48 and the turret 15 is provided, and the revolving drive mechanism 23 is directly connected to the turret 15. As a result, the lifting mechanism 60 can be simplified.

また、押圧部材48は、蓋37を押さえた状態でバレル槽30に追従して遊星回転可能となっている。この構成によれば、バレル槽30が遊星回転している間、押圧部材48から蓋37に対して弾性押圧力が付与されていても、押圧部材48はバレル槽30に追従して遊星回転する。したがって、バレル槽30の自転が妨げられる虞はない。   In addition, the pressing member 48 can follow the barrel tank 30 and can make a planetary rotation in a state where the lid 37 is pressed. According to this configuration, while the barrel tank 30 is in planetary rotation, even if an elastic pressing force is applied from the pressing member 48 to the lid 37, the pressing member 48 performs planetary rotation following the barrel tank 30. . Therefore, there is no possibility that the rotation of the barrel tank 30 is hindered.

また、蓋37の上面における押圧部材48との接触領域(即ち、蓋37と押圧部材48との接触領域)には、弾性変形可能な偏心吸収部材39が設けられている。この構成によれば、バレル槽30と押圧部材48が一体的に遊星回転している間、バレル槽30の自転軸24と押圧部材48の回転中心(従動軸49)との間で芯ずれが生じても、偏心吸収部材39が弾性変形することによって芯ずれを吸収することができる。   Further, an elastically deformable eccentric absorption member 39 is provided in the contact area with the pressing member 48 (that is, the contact area between the lid 37 and the pressing member 48) on the upper surface of the lid 37. According to this configuration, while the barrel tank 30 and the pressing member 48 are integrally planet-rotated, misalignment occurs between the rotation shaft 24 of the barrel tank 30 and the rotation center (following shaft 49) of the pressing member 48 Even if it occurs, the eccentric absorption member 39 can absorb misalignment due to elastic deformation.

また、押圧部材48には、上下方向の弾性変形が可能であり、押圧部材48と蓋37との間の上下の位置ずれを吸収可能な第2スプリング51が設けられている。この構成によれば、第2スプリング51が弾性変形することにより、押圧部材48と蓋37との間の上下方向の位置ずれが吸収されるので、蓋37をバレル本体31に対して確実に固定することができる。   Further, the pressing member 48 is provided with a second spring 51 capable of elastic deformation in the vertical direction and capable of absorbing the positional deviation between the pressing member 48 and the lid 37 in the vertical direction. According to this configuration, the second spring 51 elastically deforms to thereby absorb the positional deviation between the pressing member 48 and the lid 37 in the vertical direction, so that the lid 37 is reliably fixed to the barrel main body 31. can do.

また、遠心バレル研磨機Gは、複数の押圧部材48を可動部材42を介して一体的に公転し得るように設けた押圧モジュール41を備えている。この構成によれば、複数の押圧部材48に個別に対応する複数の第1スプリング57を設ける場合に比べると、部品点数が少なくて済む。   In addition, the centrifugal barrel polishing machine G includes a pressing module 41 provided with a plurality of pressing members 48 so as to be able to integrally revolve via the movable member 42. According to this configuration, the number of parts can be reduced as compared to the case where the plurality of first springs 57 individually corresponding to the plurality of pressing members 48 are provided.
