[Embodiment] [Best Embodiment of the Invention] -8 - Hereinafter, a phase alignment method and a phase alignment device of a spiral grinding wheel according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. [Embodiment] A gear grinding machine 1' to which the phase alignment device for a spiral grinding wheel according to the present invention is applied is shown as a drawing of a workpiece (machined gear) W of an internal gear material by a barrel-shaped spiral grinding wheel 14 as shown in Fig. 2 . The grinding, in addition, as shown in Fig. 1, has a trimming function that can be used to trim the spiral grinding wheel 14 by the dish dresser 32. As shown in Figs. 1 to 3, the gear grinding machine 1 is supported by a movable and rotatable grinding wheel head 11. The grinding wheel head 11 rotatably supports a main shaft 12, and a front end of the main shaft 12 is formed with a grinding wheel spindle 13. Next, a spiral grinding wheel 14 is detachably attached to the front end of the grinding wheel spindle 13. That is, by driving the grinding wheel head 1 1, the spiral grinding wheel 14 can be rotationally driven through the grinding wheel spindle 13 of the main shaft 12. A rotating platform 21 is rotatably supported on the front surface of the grinding wheel head 1 1. The upper surface of the rotating platform 21 is detachably attached to the workpiece W through a mounting fixture (not shown). Namely, by driving the rotary stage 21, the workpiece W can be rotationally driven. On the side of the rotary table 21, a dresser driving portion 31 is movably supported, and the dresser driving portion 31 is mounted with a detachable dish dresser 32. That is, by driving the dresser driving portion 31, the front end surface of the 32° grinding wheel head 11 of the dish dresser can be rotationally driven, and an AE (Acoustic Emission) fluid sensor with acoustic emission pattern 9 - is supported through the bracket 41 (detection Means). The AE fluid sensor 42 is an elastic wave caused by vibration or friction generated by the material detected by the injected fluid, and the elastic wave is treated by the AE number, and has a coolant C which can be used as a fluid. The injection hole 42a at the measurement position is designated at the wheel spindle 13 and the detection portion 42b is detected by the elastic wave propagated from the measurement position via the coolant C.

After the liquid C detecting unit 42b detects the detected elastic wave, it inputs the AE signal to the AE sense amplifier 44. Next, as shown in Fig. 4, the AE amp 44 converts the input AE signal into a voltage (measurement 値), and displays the voltage V at any time. Further, the gear grinding machine 1 is provided with an NC device (determination means, trimming rotation number setting means, grinding wheel phase control means) 50. The NC device 'is connected, for example, to the grinding wheel head 11, the rotary table 21, the dresser drive 31, the AE sense amplifier 44, and the like, and is configured to perform the workpiece W of the spiral grinding wheel 14 according to various conditions or processing conditions of the input workpiece.硏 制 ' or the disc-shaped dresser 3 2 of the spiral grinding wheel 1 4 trim control, 42 Zhongxun sand to 43 but according to the cold> by the sense of V 50 base control with -10- when in the above 硏Prior to the occlusion (tooth alignment) during grinding or dressing, the contact and non-contact of the spiral grinding wheel 14 and the workpiece W or the dish dresser 32 are determined based on the magnitude of the elastic wave detected by the AE fluid sensor 42. The phase adjustment of the spiral grinding wheel 14 is performed. Therefore, when the workpiece W is honed by the spiral grinding wheel 14, first, as shown in Fig. 2, the spiral grinding wheel 14 is moved to the workpiece W attached to the rotary table 21. Next, after the spiral grinding wheel 14 is moved to the workpiece W side, the large-diameter phase alignment (coarse phase alignment) is performed to avoid the spiral grinding wheel 14 before the helical grinding wheel 14 and the workpiece W are engaged. The tip of the blade and the tip of the workpiece W interfere with each other. Then, in the coarse phase alignment state, while rotating the spiral grinding wheel 14 and the workpiece W, the coolant C is ejected from the injection hole 42a of the AE fluid sensor 42 toward the measurement position of the grinding wheel spindle 13 The detecting unit 4U starts detecting the elastic wave of the spiral grinding wheel 14. As described above, when the AE fluid sensor 42 starts detecting the elastic wave, as shown in FIG. 4, the AE sense amplifier 44 converts the input AE signal into a voltage V, and displays the voltage while passing the time. Variety. In addition, while the AE fluid sensor 42 starts detecting the elastic wave, the voltage V is measured by the maximum voltage Vf when the spiral grinding wheel 14 is not in contact, and is automatically set to have a threshold 値Vo greater than the voltage Vf. . This critical enthalpy Vo is used when the contact determination of the spiral grinding wheel 14 described below is performed. Next, as long as the rotation speed (rotation speed) of the workpiece W is increased, the spiral rotation of the spiral grinding wheel 14 and the workpiece W is shifted, and the tooth surface of the workpiece W is brought into contact with the blade surface of the spiral grinding wheel 14. As a result, the elastic wave of the spiral grinding wheel 14 generated by the contact [s] -11 - 201111111 is transmitted to the grinding wheel spindle 13'. The elastic wave transmitted to the grinding wheel spindle 13 is transmitted through the cooling fluid C by the AE fluid. The sensor 42 detects it. At this time, as shown in FIG. 4, the AE sense amplifier 44 changes the waveform of the voltage V according to the input AE signal. When the voltage V(Vf) exceeds the preset threshold 値Vo, the NC device 50 determines the workpiece. W has contacted the spiral grinding wheel 14, and the phase of the spiral grinding wheel 14 is memorized in this case. On the other hand, as long as the rotation speed (rotation speed) of the workpiece W is lowered, the synchronous rotation of the spiral grinding wheel 14 and the workpiece W is shifted. The other tooth surface of the workpiece W contacts the other blade surface of the spiral grinding wheel 14. As a result, the elastic wave of the spiral grinding wheel 14 generated by the contact is transmitted to the grinding wheel spindle 13, and the elastic wave transmitted to the grinding wheel spindle 13 is detected by the AE fluid sensor 42 through the cooling liquid C. . At this time, as shown in FIG. 4, the AE sense amplifier 44 changes the waveform of the voltage V according to the input AE signal. When the voltage V(Vf) exceeds the preset threshold 値Vo, the NC device 50 determines the workpiece. W has contacted the spiral grinding wheel 14, and the phase of the spiral grinding wheel 14 is memorized. Next, after the NC device 50 calculates the intermediate phase from the phase of the two spiral grinding wheels 14 stored, the phase of the spiral grinding wheel 14 is positioned at the intermediate phase, whereby phase alignment can be precisely performed ( Precision phase alignment). Then, in the precise phase alignment state, the spiral grinding wheel 14 is engaged with the workpiece W, and then the synchronous rotation is performed to make the blade surface of the spiral grinding wheel 14 honing the tooth surface of the workpiece W. Here, when the spiral grinding wheel 14 is used for honing the specified number of workpieces w, the surface of the workpiece is worn and the honing efficiency is lowered, so that the spiral grinding wheel 1 is periodically performed by the dish dresser 32. 4 trimming. Then, when the spiral dressing wheel 13 is trimmed by the dish dresser 32, 'first', as shown in Fig. 1, after the spiral grinding wheel 14 is moved to the side of the dish dresser 32, before the occlusion, These large 槪 phase alignment (coarse phase alignment) is first performed to prevent the tip of the spiral grinding wheel 14 and the tip of the dish dresser 32 from interfering with each other. Then, in the state of the coarse phase alignment, the rotation of the spiral dresser 14 is stopped, and the rotation of the dish dresser 3 2 is performed from the injection hole 42a of the AE fluid sensor 42 toward the grinding wheel spindle 13 The position injection coolant C starts the elastic wave detection of the spiral grinding wheel 14 by the detecting portion 42b. Further, the number N of rotations of the dish dresser 32 at this time is set to a minimum number of rotations at which the operator can confirm the degree of contact sound when the spiral grinding wheel 14 comes into contact with the spiral grinding wheel 1 when the spiral grinding wheel 14 comes into contact. 4 or the middle of the disc-shaped dresser 3 2 between the maximum number of rotations without damage. As described above, when the AE fluid sensor 42 starts detecting the elastic wave, as shown in FIG. 4, the AE sense amplifier 44 converts the input AE signal into a voltage V, and displays the voltage while passing the time. Variety. In addition, while the AE fluid sensor 42 starts detecting the elastic wave, the voltage V is measured by the maximum voltage Vf when the spiral grinding wheel 14 is not in contact, and the threshold 値 which is larger than the voltage Vf is automatically set (determination)値) Vo. The critical enthalpy Vo is used when the contact determination of the spiral grinding wheel 14 described below is performed. Then, the spiral grinding wheel 14 is rotated forward, and one blade surface is brought into contact with the blade surface of the 13-disc dresser 32. . As a result, the elastic wave generated by the contact of the spiral grinding wheel 14 is transmitted to the grinding wheel spindle 13, and the elastic wave transmitted to the grinding wheel spindle 13 is detected by the AE fluid sensor 42 through the cooling liquid C. At this time, as shown in Fig. 4, the AE sense amplifier changes the waveform of the voltage V according to the input AE signal. When the voltage (direction side measurement 値) V exceeds the preset threshold 値Vo, the NC device 50 will It is determined that the spiral grinding wheel 14 has contacted the dish dresser 32, and the phase of the spiral grinding wheel 14 (one phase of the direction side) is counted. Next, the spiral grinding wheel 14 is reversed so that the other blade surface touches the other blade surface of the dish dresser 32. As a result, the elastic wave passing through the contacted spiral grinding wheel 14 is transmitted to the grinding wheel spindle 13 , and the elastic wave transmitted to the grinding wheel spindle 13 is detected by the AE flow sensor 42 through the cooling liquid C. At this time, as shown in FIG. 4, the AE senser 44 changes the waveform of the voltage V according to the input AE signal, and when the pressure (the other direction side measurement 値) V exceeds the preset threshold 値Vo, the NC device 50, it is judged that the spiral grinding wheel 14 has contacted the dish trimming 32, and the spiral grinding wheel 14 phase (the other direction side phase) is memorized. Next, after the NC device 50 calculates the intermediate phase from the two helical grinding wheels 14 stored therein, the phase of the spiral grinding wheel is positioned at the intermediate phase, whereby the phase pair can be precisely performed (precision phase alignment). Secondly, in the precise phase alignment state, the value of the spiral grinding wheel 14 is engaged with the dish dresser 32, and then the disc dresser is rotated, so that the blade surface of the dish dresser 32 can be trimmed by the spiral grinding wheel 14 Measure 44 when the production of the body of the electric timer into the phase 14 quasi-screw 32 edge -1411111 face. Further, in the present embodiment, the workpiece W of the internal gear material is used, but the workpiece W of the external gear material may be used. Further, the voltage threshold used for the contact determination of the spiral grinding wheel 14 and the workpiece W or the dish dresser 32 is a common critical value 値Vo, but a critical enthalpy of different enthalpy is also used, and the critical enthalpy is Set according to each material or processing conditions. Here, as described above, when the spiral grinding wheel 14 is rotated forward and reversed by its contact with the dish dresser 32, the spiral grinding wheel 14 is not in contact with the dish dresser 32, and the voltage is applied for a specified time. When V does not exceed the critical value 値Vo, the NC device 50 controls the number of rotations N of the dish dresser 32 to be increased. That is, as shown by the dotted line in Fig. 4, when the measured voltage V exceeds the maximum voltage Vf at the time of non-contact, and, when it is below the critical value 値Vo, the dish dresser 3 is stepwisely increased at a certain ratio. The number of rotations N of 2 (see Fig. 5) until the voltage V exceeds the critical value 値Vo, forcibly increases the elastic wave of the spiral grinding wheel 14. As a result, the detection sensitivity of the AE fluid sensor 42 can be improved, and the contact determination of the spiral grinding wheel 14 can be surely performed. Next, the stepwise setting method of the number of rotations N of the dish dresser 32 at this time is as shown by the solid line in FIG. 5, and the increase ratio may be a certain ratio, but the increase ratio may be changed, for example, As shown by the dotted line, it can also be gradually reduced to increase its ratio. Next, the disk shape setting process of the disk shaper 32 of the NC device 50 will be described with reference to Fig. 6. First, in step S1, the maximum electric -15-pressure Vf when the spiral grinding wheel 14 is not in contact is measured. Next, in step S2, the critical enthalpy Vo for determining the contact of the spiral grinding wheel 14 is set to be larger than that measured in step S1. The maximum voltage Vf is still large. Next, when the spiral grinding wheel 14 is in contact with each other, the operator can confirm that the minimum number of rotations of the contact sound level and the maximum number of rotations of the spiral grinding wheel 14 when the spiral grinding wheel 14 is in contact with each other are set to The number of rotations of the dish dresser 32 is N, and secondly, step S4 is to start the phase alignment of the spiral grinding wheel 14 with respect to the dish dresser 32. Then, step S5 is a determination as to whether or not the spiral grinding wheel 14 has contacted the dish dresser 32. Here, if the determination is YES, the step S6 is to continue the phase alignment of the spiral grinding wheel 14, and the phase alignment is completed in step 7. Further, if the determination is negative, the number of rotations of the dish conditioner 32 is increased in step S8, and the flow returns to step S5. Therefore, according to the phase alignment method and the phase alignment device of the spiral grinding wheel according to the present invention, before the splicing of the spiral grinding wheel 14 and the dish dresser 32 during trimming, the spiral grinding wheel 14 is first opposed to the dish. When the phase of the shape dresser 32 is aligned, it is determined whether the spiral grinding wheel 1 4 has contacted the dish dresser 32 according to the voltage V corresponding to the elastic wave when the spiral grinding wheel 14 contacts the dish dresser 32. When the spiral grinding wheel 14 has contacted the dish dresser 32 but the voltage V does not exceed the critical value 値Vo, the number of rotations of the dish dresser 32 is increased to forcibly determine the contact, and according to the phase of the spiral grinding wheel 14 at this time, The helical grinding wheel 14 is positioned in the intermediate phase that can be engaged. In this way, the contact and non-contact of the spiral grinding wheel can be detected with high precision, and the phase alignment of the spiral grinding wheel 14 with respect to the dish dresser 32-16- can be precisely performed. [Industrial Applicability] The present invention is a gear grinding machine that can be applied to shorten non-machining time.
