ABSTRACT:
A method for grinding epitrochoidal, hypotrochoidal, and circular bearing races in one set-up without moving the part and insuring near perfect concentricity between all of the bearing races. A machine blank is mounted on an upper rotary table that is in turn mounted on a lower rotary table. The upper table is driven both by the lower table and by an independent servomotor. The net speed of the upper table is the difference between the two driving speeds of the tables. The axis of rotation of the upper table can be offset from the axis of rotation of the lower table. The tables are rotated in opposite directions while a grinding wheel is moved laterally into contact with the surface of a rough-machined part to form the trochoidal surface. The characteristics are determined by the offset, the diameter of any rollers that are to be positioned between the trochoidal surfaces in the speed change device, and the relative speeds of the two tables. After the trochoidal surface or surfaces are completed, the lower table is stopped in its home position and the upper table is driven to grind the circular bearing race or races. Three independently-driven grinding spindles are laterally adjustable with respect to the tables.
