This invention relates to an improved dividing apparatus for grinding machines for the grinding of spur pinlons, grooved shafts or the like having a dividing disc provided with notches corresponding to the number of the tooth spaces or grooves of the workpiece, and an insertible and removable index pin co-operating therewith together with a control mechanism therefor.
Dividing apparatus for pinionand grooved shaft-grinding machines as heretofore proposed are operated by the relative movement between the machine bed and the table slide by means of cams, the dividing operation taking place during the end portion or the movement oi the table, and the control members returning, after the reversal of movement of the table, during the starting movement of the table into their initial position. Such an arrangement has two disadvantages, that is to say the table-travel necessary for the dividing movement has to be utilised twice, whereby the idle run time is considerable and the grinding capacity low, and, moreover, a separate mechanism, which effects the control of the index pin movement in the one direction of movement of the table but is switched out in the other direction, is necessary.
In the case of other proposed dividing apparatus which are driven electrically or hydraulically, these disadvantages do not exist, but according to the number of teeth to be divided, exchange-pinions have to be inserted and also kept in readiness in a considerable number for exchanging purposes.
This invention, whilst avoiding the aforesaid disadvantages, provides a particularly simple construction of an automatic dividing apparatus in which the highest grinding capacity is attained with the utilisation of the end portion of the slide table movement, the rest period and the re-starting movement thereof for eifecting the dividing operation. Moreover, the dividing apparatus constructed in accordance with the invention is universally usable for dividing workpieces having only a few or a great number of teeth and is also suitable for use with grinding' i machines for the grinding of pinions with straight or screw-like teeth.
A particular characteristic of the invention consists in the use of the fluid pressure provided' for actuating the table slide for operating the dividing apparatus. The control cams for the feed and index pin operation are constructed with symmetrical rising and falling portions, such ment is effected by only one direction of movement of the cams. The drive of the control cams in the other direction of movement then likewise produces in the same sequence the control and the return movement of the parts.
, viding, with the return of the control members,
lasts only as long as the piston is in movement, but the operating pressure continues in the cylinder from the beginning of the dividing operation to the commencement of the next dividing operation and thus acts after the piston movement on the latter until it is changed over.
In order'that the invention may be fully understood I shall now describe one embodiment thereof by way of example by reference to the accompanying drawings, which show a dividing apparatus embodying the invention together with means for actuating the same,
Figure 1 being a front View of the most essential parts seen in 'the direction of the arrow I of Fig. 2. The casing of the apparatus has been omitted. In' this figure all the parts are shown in the position of rest with the index pin engaging one of the spaces of the dividing disc.

Fig. 8 is a partly diagrammatic view of the control mechanism for actuating the dividing apparatus.
Fig. 9 is a sectional view of the cock serving for the automatic control of the supply and cutting off of the pressure means to and from' the dividing apparatus together with the actuating parts therefor, and
Fig. 10 is a longitudinal sectional view of the cock shown in Fig. 9.
On the machine bed I (Figs. 2 and 8) is longitudinally movably arranged the table slide 2 on which, in the usual manner, is carried between centres the mandrel 4 for supporting the workpiece 3. One of the centre shafts 5, which engages by means of a carrier device 6 the workpiece mandrel 4, carries the dividing disc 8, the feed disc l6 and the brake surface II located between the two discs 8 and in. The remaining parts are separately mounted. In the example illustrated in the drawings for machines for pin has entered the next groove in the grinding of spur pinions with screw-like arranged teeth, a hollow shaft l4, surrounding one of the centre shafts 5, is used for mounting certain parts, which shaft I4 is furnished with a rolling drum l5. To the latter are connected steel bands l6 and H, which are laid in two directions around the drum l5 and are fastened at their other ends to a slide I8 transversely guided in the table slide 2, and which is actuated in a suitable manner in dependence on the movement of the table slide. -If spur pinions with teeth running in the axial direction,
thus straight, are to be ground, then the slide I8 is not moved. The casing is ncn-rotatably connected by the wedge or key member 2| w th the hollow shaft I4.
.On a pin 22 located in the casing 20 is mounted a lever 24 carrying the index pin 23, and so influenced by a spring 25 that the index pin is normally forced towards the dividing disc 8 and enters one of the spaces 9 thereof. The spring 25 is preferably a compression spring and is supported on a projection or shoulder 26 of the easing 20 and acts against the rearward end of the lever'24, which, for this purpose, is formed with a lateral arm adapted to take the spring pressure. Level with the index pin lever 24 is also mounted on the pin 22 the index control lever 28, which preferably carries a roller which is pressed against the index control cam 32 freely mounted on the hollow shaft l4. The index pin lever 24 and the control lever 28 are adjustable relatively to one another for the purpose of ensuring their correct co-operation with the dividing disc 8 on the one hand and the index control cam 32 on the other hand. For this purpose a stop pin 29 carried in the index control lever 28 and an adjusting screw 36 carried by the index pin lever 24 and directed towards the pin 29 are employed. The index control cam 32 carries on its hub 33 a toothed portion 34 which engages another toothed portion 35, that is to say a rack portion of a double acting piston 36. This piston 36 is guided in a cylinder 31 located in the casing 20. At both ends of the piston 36 are cylinder spaces 38 and 39 to which pressure medium conduits 4| and 42 communicate through the covers 40. Adjacent the index control lever 28 is freely rotatably arranged'on the pin 22 a brake lever 44, which is pressed by a spring 45 against the brake surface the latter is provided with a carrier pin 46 against which the brake lever 44 bears by means of an adjusting screw 41 arranged laterally thereon. The index control cam 32 carries a carrier pin 50, which engages in an arcuate slot 52 formed in l the rotatable feed control cam 53, the slot 52 being so dimensioned that the feed control cam 53 is actuated in unison with the swinging out of the index pin 23 from the dividing disc 8. The actual cam surface of cam 53 is made symmetrically rising and falling on both sides, whereby, regardless of the direction of the working stroke at any time, both the dividing, that is to say feed movement, as well as the return movement of the control members is effected. On the feed control cam 53 bears a roller 55 of a link member 51 swingably carried by means of a pin 56in the casing 20, which link member 57 is acted on by a tension spring 58. roller 55 is pivoted a second link 60, which carries a pin 62 which projects into an arcuate slot 63 formed in the feed lever 65 and can be adjusted and fixed in this slot as desired by means of a suitable screw, asis necessitated by the size of the feed movement. On one end of the lever 65, which is mounted freely rotatable on the hollow shaft [4, is swingably carried, by means of a pin 66, a feed pawl 61 which is held by means of the tension spring 68 in engagement with the feed disc Ill. The centre of the arcuate slot 63 coincides exactly or approximately with the pin 59 and the link members 51 and are both of the same length. By adjusting the second link 60 in the slot 63 of the feed lever the stroke of the latter is controllable. If, for example, the second link 6!] lies in a position exactly over the first, then the cam stroke will effect practically no movement of the feed lever 65 as both links swing around a common fixed point of the pin 56. The
greater the angle of adjustment enclosed by the two links 51 and 60 is, the greater is the stroke of the feed control lever '65.
The above described mechanism operates in the following manner:
II. For the purpose of the correct co-operation of the brake lever 44 with the index pin lever 24,
If,'in the initial position shown in Figs. 1 to 4,
through the conduit 42 into the cylinder space 39, the double acting piston 36 commences to move towards the left, whereby, through the medium of the rack 35, the index control cam 32 is swung in the direction of the arrow A indicated in Fig. 1. The index control cam 32 forms a segment of a circle with a raised portion which is made of a definite size, that is to say extends over the middle part of the peripheral surface. On the initial rotation-of the index control cam 32 its pin 50 slides in the arcuate slot 52 of the feed control cam 53 and as soon as, on the further rotation of the index control cam 32, the index control lever 28 moves on to the raised portion of the cam 32, the index pin 23 is lifted out of engagement with the dividing disc 8. Directly thereafter, the pin 50 reaches its end position at one end of the slot 52, as shown in Fig. 5. From their on, the feed control cam 53 is moved in the direction of the arrow A (Fig. 5'). Consequently, owing to the running of the roller 55 on the cam '53, the link'5'l is swung outwardly and the feed angle, Fig. 6 shows' an intermediate position during the feed movement. At the end of this To the pivot pin 59 of the.
feed movement the roller has attained the peak or apex point of the feed control cam 53 and from then on, on the further rotation of this cam 53, with the sliding of the index control lever 28 off the raised portion of the index control cam 32, the index pin 23 is moved into the next space 9 of the dividing disc 8 and immediately thereon the return movement of the feed lever 85 in the direction of the arrow C, Fig. 7, into its initial position is effected by sliding of the roller 55 on the descending portion of the feed control cam 53 located on the other side of the apex point.
If, now, after the pressure in the cylinder part 39 has been removed by supplying .the pressure medium to the cylinder part 38, the double act-- ing piston 38 is displaced towards the right, then the index control cam 32 and the feed control cam 53 are swung in the direction of the arrow D, Fig. 7, indicated in dotted lines, and first the index pin 23 is lifted out of the dividing disc 8 and then the feeding of the dividing disc 8, the re-engaging movement of the index pin 23 and finally the return movement of the feed lever and the pawl 81 into their initial position is effected in the same sequence as above, so that the position of the parts shown in Fig. 1 is again obtained. a
If the pressure in the cylinder space 38 is then removed and pressure supplied to the cylinder space 39, the first described'operationwill be repeated.
For the correct timing of the control of the pressure medium the dividing apparatus is, for example, provided wiith a control mechanism shown in Figs. 8, 9 and 10. It is assumed in this case that a pressure fluid, for example oil, is employed for effecting the'reciprocating movement of the table slide 2.
In the machine frame I is provided a pressure medium cylinder I8 through which passes a piston rod I3 on which is mounted a piston 15, which rod I3 is carried on the table slide 2 by means of projections II and I2. By supplying pressure alternately to one cylinder space or to the other cylinder space 11, the table slide reciprocating movement is produced.
For the operating medium, in the present case oil, a storage container is provided together with a suitable pump, preferably a geared pump 8!. The pump 8| sucks throughthe medium of the conduit I9, and forces the oil through the conduit 82 to the throttle valves 83 and 84 which are adjustable by hand. In the conduit 82 is arranged an overflow valve 18. One of the valves 83 is intended for feeding the device for moving the table slide 2, whilst the other valve 84 serves for the adjustment of the pressure oil supply to the dividing apparatus. Both valve spindles are located adjacent one another and carry pinions 85, 88 which interengage. A slipping clutch is provided in the spindle of the valve 84. As the oil supply for effecting the dividing operation is connected to that for effecting the movement of the table, both working speeds are controlled together and in the same proportion by the common control valve 83. The second valve 84 'for controlling the dividing is provided adjacent the table control valve 83 for the purpose of adjusting the dividing speed relatively to the speed of P the table slide 2 in the case of particularly large or small workpieces. The two valves 83 and 84 are coupled together through the friction clutch coupling and, in the case a relative adjustment of the two speeds is desired, the friction coupling p all duit us;
is adjusted on the second operating knob. A conduit 81 leads from the valve 83 to the control cock 88 for the table slide movement, and the conduits 89 and 98 lead from this cock 88 to the cylinder spaces I8 and 11. For the control of the dividing apparatus a cock 92 secured to the table slide 2 is provided, which cock is fed through the conduit 93 from the valve 84. The cook 92 is provided with a cock plug 95 formed with suitable cut-out portions, which cock plug can be rotated on its shaft through the medium of a pinion 98 and a rack 91. The rack 91 is formed of a vertically displaceable bolt 99 held by a spring 98 in the lower rest position and having a lower bevelled 'end I88 projecting out of the body of the cock 92. This bolt end I88 which can also, if desired, be provided with a roller, projects into the path of cam pieces I82 and I83 which are arranged longitudinally adjustably on the machine bed I and fixable thereon by screws I85. These cam pieces I82 and I83, are, in accordance with the invention, located at positions where, in relation to the position of the table slide 2, it is desired to eifecta dividing operation, so that, on the said end I88 striking one or the other of the cam pieces I82 and I83, the change-overof the cock plug 95 is effected in such a manner that the pressure oil is fed alternately through the conduits 4|, 42 to the cylinder spaces 38 and 39 of the dividing apparatus. An inward movement of the bolt 99 causes the movement of the cock .arrow shown in Fig. 9. So as to be able to control the cock plug 95 also by hand, a hand 'wheel H3 is fixed on the shaft I88. An outlet pipe H5 is provided in the body of the cook 92 opposite the conduit 93. It will therefore be understood that cock 92 constitutes a four-way valve. .The cock plug 95 is provided with opposed circumferential recesses, one of which is shown in Fig. 10. Each recess connects to adjacent ports. In the position shown in Fig. 18, supply conduit 93 is connected to line 42 and cylinder space 39; and line H from cylinder space 38 is vented to outlet pipe II5. A ninety degree rotation of plug 95 under actuation of bolt 99 reverses the-connections and connects supply conduit 93 to line 4! and cylinder space 38, and vents cylinder space 39 through line 42 to outlet pipe I I5. This actuates the piston 38 and'causes the mechanism to perform the dividing operation. A further ninety degree rotation interchanges the positions of the recesses, and reestablishes the connections between the conduits that existed originally in the position shown in Fig. 10, effecting another dividing operation. A catching gutter or channel IIB from which a conduit III leads to the oil storage container 88 is provided below the con- This is necessary owing to the movement of the table slide 2', of which movement the cock 92 partakes.
The conduits M and of hose pipes, particularly in the ,case where the whole dividing apparatus is rotated by means of a rolling device when pinions with screw-like running teeth are to be ground.
