LIQUID COOLED GRINDING WHEEL Filed Nov. 4, 1954 INVENTOR.

9 Claims. (Cl. 51-267) The present invention relates to grinding wheels; and in particular, it relates to a novel and improved and apparatus for efiecting internal cooling of the wheel and the work, during the operation of the wheel.
The present invention effects cooling of a grinding wheel by percolation of a liquid coolant radially of the wheel, through the interstices of the homogeneous body thereof, from the center of the wheel to the peripheral face thereof, uniformly throughout the entire circumference and axial length of the wheel by the utilization of centrifugal force developed as a result of high speed rotation of the wheel.
An object of my invention is to provide a uniform distribution of a regulated or controlled supply of coolant throughout the entire circumference and axial length of a grinding wheel.
In most cases, involving the radial distribution of a liquid coolant by centrifugal force throughout the axial length and circumference of a grinding wheel, the best cooling is efiected by a regulated or controlled supply of coolant to the wheel, which cooling, in particular, is best accomplished by a very slow drip-like feed so that a greater surface area of the coolant may be presented at the point of grinding. With respect to grinding wheels now known in the art, the characteristics of centrifugal force are generally not recognized; in particular, the characteristic that as soon as the liquid coolant is released from a restraint, it moves directly in a straight line, under centrifugal action, radially from the point where the restraint is released. If in radial distribution of the coolant, in a grinding structure involving radial distribution outwardly through a plurality of axially spaced radially directed passages or openings, all or a plurality of said passages are fed from a common axially extended cavity or passage, the radial openings or passages closest to the source will receive all or most of the supply, if regulated. Uniform circumferential and axial distribution of the coolant could be effected, in such a case, only by a steady, solid flow of coolant to the interconnected axially spaced points of radial distribution, which condition is seldom, if ever, desirable.
Therefore, it is another object of the present invention to provide, in a grinding wheel structure including a grinding wheel having a central axially extending cavity, coolant, which may be regulated as to supply, being delivered through axially extending passages of different lengths to all of the various axially spaced points within the cavity of the wheel, so that even distribution of a regulated supply of coolant is effected throughout all axially and circumferentially spaced areas of the wheel.
it is a further object of the present invention to provide in the art or" grinding, a method of supplying coolant to a grinding wheel having a central axially extending cavity, wherein the coolant is properly restrained against centrifugal action until it reaches the proper point for radial delivery or distribution within the cavity of the wheel, to effect uniform. distribution of the coolant throughout all axial and circumferential spaced areas of the wheel.
2,774,201 Patented Dec. 18, 1956 These and other objects and advantages will be apparent in the course of the following specification and claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawings wherein:
Fig. 1 is a fragmentary view in front elevation, with some parts broken away, of my invention;
Fig. 2 is a view in vertical section taken substantially on the line 22 of Fig. 1; and
Fig. 3 is an enlarged fragmentary view in horizontal section taken substantially on the line 33 of Fig. 2.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, wherein like parts will be indicated by the same numeral, the numeral 10 indicates a conventional grinding wheel composed of any well known abrasive substance, having any desired grain size, and a suitable bonding substance of any well known kind, and having a porous homogeneous body. Wheel 10 has an axially extending bore or cavity 11. A hub 12 positioned in and extending generally through cavity 11 comprises a pair of telescoped axially extending annular hub members 13 and 14, and a pair of radially outwardly projecting circumferentially extending flanges 15 and 16 integral with the telescoped hub members 13 and 14, respectively.
For the purpose of securing wheel 16 to a spindle 17 having a tapered end portion 18 and a threaded end 19 disposed axially outwardly of tapered end 18, hub member 13 is provided with a tapered opening '20 corresponding to the taper of end portion 18 of the spindle 17 and an axially outwardly opening recess 21 at the smaller end of the tapered opening 20 which provides a shoulder 22. Hub member 13 is held fast on the tapered end 18 of the spindle 17 by means of a nut 23 threaded on the end 19 which engages the shoulder 22. Hub member 13 is positioned on spindle 17 with the circumferentially extending flange 15 disposed axially inwardly adjacent the inner end of hub member 13. Fastening means comprising circumferentially disposed bolts 24 extend between the separate portions of hub 12, and specifically extend axially through hub member 14 and are threaded into circumferentially extending flange 15 adjacent the inner end of hub member 13. Fastening means 24 hold the separate portions of hub 12 together and hold the circumferentially extending flanges 15 and 16, together with friction washers 25, in friction locking engagement with the opposite side faces 26 and 27 of the wheel 16.
A pan-shaped member 28 having a rim '29 releasably secured to the circumferentially extendingflange 16 by threaded bolts 3t? defines a coolant-receiving cavity 31 adjacent the axially outwardly disposed side 32 of the hub 12. A conduit 33 extends through an aperture 34 in pan-shaped member 28 to open axially into the coolantreceiving cavity 31 and is adapted to be connected to a source of coolant, not shown in the drawings, which may be regulated or controlled to supply a very slow drip-like feed of coolant to the cavity 31.
The inner end 34 of hub member 14 is spaced axially outwardly from the circumferentially extending flange 15 to define a space 35.
The periphery 36 of axially extending hub member 14, radially outwardly disposed with respect to axially extending hub member 13, is contiguous the inner cylindrical surface 37 of the wheel 10. Hub member 14 has a plurality of identical circumferentially disposed groups or series 38 of several axially extending passages 39 and an axially extending passage 40, which is the last passage of the series, formed therein. Passage 39 and passage 40 of each group 38 are circumferentially spaced and of difierent lengths; the passages opening at their ends 41 into the coolant-receiving cavity 31 and at the opposite ends 42 terminating in axially and circumferentially spaced points in the hub member 14 of hub 12. The passages 39 and passage 40 of each group 38 are arpassages 43.
tending passages 39 adjacent their closed ends 42 to the periphery 36 of hub member 14 and opening, adjacent the inner surface 37 of wheel 10. Radially extending passages 43 are of smaller diameter than the axially extending passages 39 and 40. Hub member 14 also has a plurality of axially extending passages 44 formed therein, one of which extends from each of the passages 40 to the space 35. Passages 44 are of approximately the same diameter and length as the radially extending The passages 39 and passage 40 of each series 33 are adapted to uniformly distribute the coolant in the hub 12 along the axial length of the wheel 10, and the disposition of the identical series 38 of the passages 39 and 40' elfects this axial distribution of coolant uniformly about the circumference of the hub 12. Thus, the cool ant is delivered from the coolant-receiving cavity 21 -'through the axially directed passages 39 and 40 to all a the various axially spaced points Within the cavity 11 of the wheel until delivered to said points, the cool ant is restrained against centrifugal action; and from said pointsjthe coolant is delivered through the radially di-' rected passages 43 and space 35 to the wheel 10, so that even distribution of coolant is effected throughout all axially and circumfe-rentially spaced areas of the wheel 10.
My invention not only effects the aforesaid uniform distribution of the coolant, but by restraining the coolant against centrifugal action until it reaches the proper point for distribution, the supply of coolant to the wheel 16 maybe efiectively regulated to accomplish the most satisfactory cooling of the wheel. In other words, my invention is adapted to achieve regulation of the supply of coolant to the wheel 10 together with a uniform distribution thereof throughout all the axially and circumferentially spaced areas of the wheel 10. t
My inyention has been built and tested' and found to accomplish: all of' the afore-mentioned objectives and advantages.
