Device and method for grinding workpieces, in particular welding electrodes

摘要

A system for grinding workpieces includes a grinding wheel, a first support for rotatably supporting the grinding wheel about a first rotational axis, and a grinding wheel drive for rotating the grinding wheel. The first support can be rotated about a second rotational axis using a support rotating device, the first rotational axis being inclined relative to the second rotational axis such that the grinding wheel lies diagonally against the surface of the workpiece and grinds a substantially conical surface on the workpiece while rotating about the second rotational axis when the workpiece contacts the grinding wheel surface at a distance from the second rotational axis. A position adjusting device may move the first support along the second rotational axis. The angle of inclination between the first rotational axis and the second rotational axis may be adjusted using an inclination adjusting device.

主权项

1. A device for grinding solid workpieces, comprising:
a flat grinding wheel; a first bearing for rotatable mounting of the grinding wheel about a first axis of rotation; and a grinding wheel drive, which is coupled to the grinding wheel, for rotating the grinding wheel, wherein the first bearing is rotatable about a second axis of rotation, wherein the first axis of rotation is inclined with respect to the second axis of rotation such that the grinding wheel bears obliquely against the surface of the workpiece and grinds, during the rotation about the second axis of rotation, a substantially conical surface to the workpiece when the workpiece is in contact with the grinding wheel surface at a distance from the second axis of rotation.
