Abstract
The grinding apparatus (10) includes a base (100) for receiving at least one workpiece, a pressing portion (106), and a blocking portion (102) opposite to the pressing portion. The pressing portion is movable relative to the blocking portion. The pressing portion is configured for applying a pressing force against the workpiece, so as to hold the workpiece between the pressing portion and the blocking portion.
Description
- The present invention relates to a grinding apparatus for shaping a surface of a workpiece and, in particular, relates to a grinding apparatus having a pressing portion.
- A roll grinder is generally utilized to round and/or polish a surface of a workpiece. A conventional roll grinder includes a pair of hollows. In a grinding process, the hollows are pumped/evacuated so as to create suction and are thereby used to hold a workpiece being treated. The workpiece, thus held, is then ground using a grinding wheel. However, this kind of the roll grinder is not very efficient, as the roll grinder can only shape one workpiece at a time.
- There are a number of grinding methods for grinding a number of workpieces at one time. In a related grinding method the workpieces are placed on a grinding bed and then coated with a UV emulsion. The workpieces are then exposed to a UV light to cure the UV emulsion in such a manner that the workpieces become attached to the grinding bed. The workpieces are then ground, and the UV emulsion is then melted to displace/detach the workpieces from the grinding bed. However, this grinding method has drawbacks. For example, retention of the UV emulsion on the workpieces may cause contamination. Furthermore, the steps of curing and melting the UV emulsion will take time and increase production costs.
- What is needed, therefore is to provide a grinding apparatus that avoids potential shortcomings associated with the UV emulsion and that is generally quicker and cheaper than the known mounting methods associated with roller grinders.
- A grinding apparatus provided herein generally includes: a base for receiving at least one workpiece, a pressing portion, and a blocking portion opposite to each other, the pressing portion being movable relative to the blocking portion, the pressing portion being configured for applying a pressing force against each workpiece, so as to hold the at least one workpiece between the pressing portion and the blocking portion.
- These and other features, aspects, and advantages of the present method will become more apparent from the following detailed description and claims, and the accompanying drawings.
- Many aspects of the present grinding apparatus can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the present grinding apparatus. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.

FIG. 1 , thebase 100 includes agroove 1002 configured (i.e., structured and arranged) for receiving the at least one workpiece. The workpiece to be treated could be, for example, a square wafer. Thegroove 1002 advantageously has a shape corresponding to a shape of the workpiece or at least a portion thereof; or at least has a shape that reduces the potential degrees of freedom of the workpiece. For example, thegroove 1002 may be V-shaped, as it could hold, e.g., an object having at least one corner corresponding to that V-shape or a rod-shaped object. - The blocking
portion 102 is secured to oneend 1001 of thebase 100, usefully, byscrews 1022 or another type of threaded fastener. Accordingly, the blockingportion 102 includes throughholes 1026 defined therein. Thebase 100 includesscrew holes 1006 defined in theend 1001, corresponding to the throughholes 1026 of theblocking portion 102.

Themounting block 104 includes a throughhole 1041 configured for receiving thepressing portion 106. A position of thethrough hole 1041 should be determined according to circumstances, for example, a height of the workpieces to be treated and/or a height of a bottom of thegroove 1002. Generally, in order to maintain contact between thepressing portion 106 and a given workpiece received in thegroove 1002, thethrough hole 1041 is arranged in a position with respect to the bottom of thegroove 1002 such that, beneficially, the pressing portion will impact the cross-section of the workpiece, preferably at about the middle thereof or above in order to more stably hold the workpiece in place. - The
mounting block 104 is secured to anopposite end 1003 of thebase 100, advantageously, byscrews 1022 or other threaded fasteners. Accordingly, themounting block 104 includes throughholes 1046 defined therein. Thebase 100 includes screw holes (not shown) defined in theend 1003, thereby corresponding to the throughholes 1026 of theblocking portion 102. The blockingportion 102 and themounting block 104 are arranged at opposite ends of thegroove 1002 and respectively block anopening groove 1002. As such, theblocking portion 102 and themounting block 104 are configured for supporting a corresponding adjacent end of a given workpiece during the grinding process. - The

Thepressing portion 106 is moveably mounted within the mountingblock 104 via the throughhole 1041, e.g., via cooperating threading. As a result, thepressing portion 106 can be selectably moved relative to the blockingportion 102. - In the grinding process, one or more workpieces are aligned in the
groove 1002. Thepressing portion 106 is moved relative to the blockingportion 102, and a pressing force is applied against each workpiece, so as to hold the at least one workpiece between thepressing portion 106 and the blockingportions 102. Therefore, use of a conventional UV emulsion is avoided. Thus, emulsion-related contamination of the workpieces is also avoided, and a time-consuming operation is shortened. - Referring to
FIG. 3 , there is illustrated anotherbase 600 including agroove 6002 structured and arranged for receiving the at least one workpiece. Particularly, thegroove 6002 has an arc-shape in its cross-sectional view. Thegroove 6002 can be used to receive one or more workpieces having corresponding arc surfaces. Otherwise, during a process for grinding square workpieces, after the workpieces have one surface ground to be arcuate, the workpieces can be reversed (i.e., rotated to have the newly-formed arcuate surface facing downward) and transferred to thegroove 6002 of thebase 600. Similarly, the workpieces can be held between thepressing portion 106 and the blockingportions 102 with their ground arc surface in contact with a bottom of thegroove 6002. - Referring to
