Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a movable polishing machine for polishing the surface of a steel sheet or the like with an endless polishing belt.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Various moving polishing machines have been proposed in which a drive unit for an endless polishing belt is mounted on a moving carriage and polishing is performed while moving on the surface of an object to be ground such as a steel plate.

Most of the conventional mobile polishing machines do not have a dust collecting device. When installing a dust collector, a small portable dust collector that is a diversion of a household electric vacuum cleaner is used in order to eliminate space restrictions and reduce weight.

In this case, since the dust collecting object is the grinding powder (the grinding powder is turned into red heat) whose temperature is remarkably high due to the grinding heat, the filter of the dust collecting device is burned and the driving motor of the dust collecting machine is ground. There was a problem that the powder adhered and cooled and became unusable. In addition, since a dust collector is not incorporated in the main body of the mobile polishing machine, grinding powder adheres and accumulates on the lower surface of the mobile trolley, which hinders the movement of the mobile trolley and causes harmful gas such as oil smoke generated during grinding. There was a hygiene problem such as the worker inhaling.

In order to solve such a problem, the inventors of the present invention continue to earnestly research and propose a mobile polishing machine with a dust collecting device as described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-29099. .

[0006] As shown in FIG. 3, the movable polishing machine disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-29099 discloses a contact wheel on the rear lower surface of a wheeled mobile carriage (1) provided with a hand-pushed handle (42) at the rear. The drive pulley (4) is rotatably laterally supported on the upper surface of the front part (6), and the tension pulley (5) is mounted on the upper center of the moving carriage (1) via a tension adjusting mechanism (13). And rotatably supported laterally, and a drive motor (3) connected to the drive pulley (4) is mounted on a moving carriage (1) close to the drive pulley (4), and the drive pulley (4), Contact wheel (6)
An endless polishing belt (7) is stretched between the tension pulley (5) and the tension pulley (5), and the polishing belt (7) runs on the lower surface of the contact wheel (6) in the forward direction of the moving carriage (1). Is configured to drive.

On the moving carriage (1) of the mobile polishing machine, a dust collector main body (8) consisting of a dust collecting box with a filter and an intake air generating means, and the dust collector main body (8) via an intake pipe (31). The separation / collection box (9) for grinding powder connected to the dust collection box in (1) is mounted.

On the other hand, on the lower side of the movable carriage (1) along the running surface of the polishing belt (7) stretched between the contact wheel (6), the drive pulley (4) and the tension pulley (5), A recovery duct (10) for grinding powder, which is wider than the width of the polishing belt (7) and is made of a long hollow square pipe, with the longitudinal direction aligned with the front-back direction of the moving carriage (1). This recovery duct (1
The tip opening (36) of (0) is arranged in front of the contact wheel (6) so as to face the contact wheel (6), and a concave saucer member (39) having an upper opening at the tip opening (36) is provided on the contact wheel (6). Pivot vertically adjustable angle,
Moreover, the rear end portion of the grinding dust recovery duct (10) is U-shaped.
It is connected to the separation / recovery box (9) in a state in which it is curved in a detour and a long cooling section length of the grinding powder is secured.

When the surface of the object to be ground (2) is polished by using the mobile polishing machine shown in FIG. 3, a worker pushes the mobile polishing machine on the object to be contacted. The polishing operation is performed by bringing the polishing belt (7) for each wheel (6) into pressure contact with the surface of the object to be ground (2) and continuing the movement in this state. At this time, the grinding powder generated by grinding scatters toward the front of the contact wheel (6), but inside the grinding powder recovery duct (10) having a long cooling section length from the opening end of the saucer member (39). And is sent to the separation / collection box (9) in the previous stage. Coarse grinding powder is separated from the air flow containing harmful gas and fine dust in the separation and recovery box (9), and at the same time, harmful gas such as oil smoke and fine dust generated during grinding are carried in the air flow. It is separated and collected in the dust collector main body (8) in the latter stage.

[0010]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Conventional saucer member (39)
Since the upper part is a concave shape with an open top, the opening area of the suction opening is too large, and the opening direction of the suction opening is not only directed to the grinding position, but also opens upward, The collection efficiency of grinding powder is low.

Further, since the saucer member (39) is arranged below the traveling position of the polishing belt (7), when the saucer member (39) is made to approach the contact wheel (6) as much as possible, the contact is made. When the wheel (6) is pressed against the object (2) to be ground, the saucer member (3
Since the lower surface of the tip of 9) hits the object to be ground (2), the saucer member (39) cannot be brought close to the contact wheel (6). Therefore, the efficiency of collecting grinding powder and the like is low.

Further, the conventional one has a recovery duct (10).
Since the rear end of the separation / recovery box (9) is only bent and directly connected to the separation / recovery box (9), the mounting position of the separation / recovery box (9) in the height direction is the recovery duct (1).
0) I was not able to take it to a higher position freely because it was restricted by the position in the height direction at the rear end. for that reason,
The amount of grinding powder collected in the separation collection box (9) could not be increased. Further, for the same reason, the mounting position of the separation / recovery box (9) is unavoidably biased to one side of the movable carriage (1), and there is a drawback that it is difficult to balance.

Moreover, the conventional separation and recovery box (9)
In the above method, the collected grinding powder collides with the baffle plate and is separated, so that the baffle plate becomes red-heated and the grinding powder tends to adhere.

[0014]

As a means for solving the above-mentioned problems, the present invention enables a contact wheel to be rotated on a rear lower surface of a wheeled carriage having a hand-pushed handle at a rear portion thereof and a drive pulley to be rotated on a front upper surface thereof. It is supported laterally, and a tension pulley is rotatably supported above the center of the moving carriage via a tension adjusting mechanism, and a drive motor connected to the driving pulley is mounted on the moving carriage near the driving pulley. Then, an endless polishing belt is stretched between the drive pulley, the contact wheel and the tension pulley,
A mobile polishing machine configured to drive and drive the polishing belt on the lower surface of the contact wheel in the forward direction of the moving carriage, comprising a dust collecting box with a filter and an air intake generating means on the moving carriage. A dust collector main body and a cyclone and a separate collection box connected to the dust collector main body via an intake pipe are installed to separate and collect the grinding powder, and the dust collector is suspended over the contact wheel, drive pulley and tension pulley. On the lower side of the moving carriage along the running surface of the polishing belt, a longer grinding dust collecting duct that is wider than the polishing belt in the state where the longitudinal direction is aligned with the front-back direction of the moving carriage is provided. In addition to disposing the tip, the tip opening of the grinding dust collecting duct is arranged in front of the contact wheel so as to face the tip of the collecting duct. A short rectangular cylindrical suction port member is inserted through the opening so as to pass through the polishing belt, leaving a running gap of the polishing belt on the lower side of the upper inner surface via a receiving stopper, and the tip opening is provided at the contact. The wheel is pivotally attached to the wheel so that the angle can be adjusted in the vertical direction in the vicinity of the outer peripheral edge of the wheel, and a flexible intake hose is connected to the upstream end of the grinding powder recovery duct via a pipe joint.

Install a machine.

Separation ability between grinding powder and an air stream containing harmful gas or fine dust by allowing the grinding powder to spirally swirl in the cyclone installed between the main body of the dust collector and the separation / recovery box and causing the grinding powder to drop by gravity. The amount of grinding powder stored in the separation and recovery box is increased.

Further, at the tip opening portion of the grinding powder recovery duct, a running gap of the polishing belt is left below the upper inner surface through a receiving stopper, and the tip opening position is brought close to the outer peripheral edge of the contact wheel. A suction port member for grinding powder whose angle can be adjusted vertically is pivotally mounted.

When the polishing belt for each contact wheel is pushed down toward the surface of the object to be ground by movably inserting the polishing belt under the upper inner surface of the suction port member, the suction port member and the polishing belt are separated from each other. Contact is avoided, and the tip opening of the suction port member can be brought closer to the contact wheel.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. In the following description, in principle, the same components as those of FIG. 3 showing the prior art are denoted by the same reference numerals, and duplicated descriptions will be omitted.

The mobile polishing machine according to the present invention comprises a dust collection box with a filter and a suction means, for example, a dust collection body (8) consisting of a negative pressure suction device on a movable carriage (1),
Separation collector (12) for grinding powder consisting of cyclone (11) and separation collection box (9) via intake hose (31)
Are connected.

Further, the polishing belt is provided below the moving carriage (1) along the traveling surface of the polishing belt (7) which is wound around the contact wheel (6), the drive pulley (4) and the tension pulley (5). A collection duct (10) of long grinding powder consisting of a square pipe made of a heat-resistant material having a width direction wider than that of (7) is mounted, and the collection is arranged facing the contact wheel (6). In the tip opening (36) of the duct (10), as shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 2, a short rectangular tubular suction port member (the tip of which is slidably cut so that the polishing belt (7) can be passed therethrough is cut ( 14) via the receiving stopper (13), leaving a running gap of the polishing belt (7) below the inner surface (18) of the upper part, and bringing the tip opening (19) close to the outer peripheral edge of the contact wheel (7). It is pivotally attached in the state of being made. Like the recovery duct (10), the suction port member (14) is formed of a square pipe made of a heat-resistant material so as to secure an insertion interval of the polishing belt (7) therein, and the recovery duct (10) and The pin (16) planted on the side wall surface of the suction port member (14) is loosely fitted in the hole (15) of the connecting plate (17) so that the pin (16) can be vertically swung as indicated by an arrow UD. It is supported. The lower limit of the swing position of the suction port member (14) is restricted by the receiving stopper (13). The tip of the suction port member (14) does not necessarily need to be cut obliquely, and may be cut at a right angle.

On the other hand, the upstream end of the grinding powder recovery duct (10) is connected to an intake hose (21) made of a flexible heat resistant material via a pipe joint (20) as shown in FIG. There is.
The intake hose (21) is formed in an S-shaped curved air feeding conduit to give a sufficient cooling time to the grinding powder sucked inside, and its rear end is the side wall surface of the cyclone (11). Is tangentially connected to an opening (22) provided in the.

The rotation of the polishing belt (7) causes the surface of the object to be ground (2) to be polished.
The generated grinding powder flows into the recovery duct (10) through the tip opening (19) of the suction port member (14) together with harmful gas and fine dust, and after a predetermined cooling time elapses, the intake hose (21) It flows from the upstream end through the opening (22) into the cyclone (11) tangentially. As a result, the grinding powder spirally swirls (the swirling direction is indicated by the reference symbol S) while falling by its own weight in the cyclone (11) and is deposited in the separation and recovery box (9).

On the other hand, the air flow containing harmful gas and fine dust which has flown into the cyclone (11) together with the grinding powder separates the grinding powder at the upper part of the cyclone (11) and then the intake pipe (31). It flows in through the dust collector body (8) and is captured and collected in the dust collector box with a filter.

[0025]

EFFECT OF THE INVENTION A cyclone (11) is installed between the dust collector body (8) and the separation and recovery box (9), and grinding powder is spirally swirled in the cyclone (11) as indicated by symbol S. However, by dropping it by its own weight, the ability to separate the grinding powder from the air stream containing harmful gas and fine dust is enhanced. As a result, it becomes easy to separate and collect the grinding powder into the separation / collection box (9), and the rear end of the grinding powder collection duct (10) is connected to the cyclone via the flexible intake hose (21). Since it was connected to (11), a separate collection box (9)
The mounting position in the height direction can be set to a high position irrespective of the position in the height direction of the rear end of the recovery duct (10), whereby the grinding stored in the separation recovery box (9). The amount of sparks also increases. Further, the separation / collection box (9) can be installed in the widthwise center of the movable carriage (1), and the stability is improved.

Further, by passing the polishing belt (7) through the suction port member (14), the suction port member (14) can be brought closer to the contact wheel (7) than ever before. Moreover, since it is in the shape of a square tube, the air flow containing grinding powder and harmful gas or fine dust is reliably captured and collected by the suction port surrounded by the square tube at a position close to the grinding position,
Recovery efficiency is high.
