ROLLING GRINDER WITH PRESS FIT BETWEEN ROLLER AND SHAFT

Abstract

A method for producing a rolling sharpener having at least one grinding or polishing face for grinding and/or polishing a cutting tool, the rolling grinder being formed substantially from two rollers, a grip body to be arranged between the rollers and rotatably relative thereto, and a shaft to be supported rotatably in the grip body. To make correct operation of the rolling grinder user-friendly and to facilitate correct operation overall, each of the rollers is connected to the shaft in a frictionally engaged manner.

11. A method for producing a rolling grinder having at least one grinding or polishing face for grinding or polishing a cutting tool, comprising: connecting two rollers to a shaft such that the rollers and the shaft are frictionally engaged,wherein a grip body is arranged between the rollers and rotatable relative to the rollers, andwherein the shaft is rotatably supported in the grip body.

12. The method according to claim 11, wherein at least one of the rollers is connected to the shaft in a frictionally engaged manner only.

13. The method according to claim 11, wherein at least one of the rollers is connected to the shaft by press-fitting.

14. The method according to claim 13, wherein the shaft or one of the rollers comprises an insertion bevel or chamfer to facilitate press-fitting.

15. The method according to claim 11, wherein an interference fit between the roller and the shaft is cylindrical.

16. The method according to claim 11, wherein at least one of the rollers has a temperature difference to the shaft.

17. The method according to claim 11, wherein at least one of the rollers is inserted into the shaft.

18. The method according to claim 17, wherein the shaft forms a female component and comprises a bore, and wherein each of the rollers forms a male component and comprises a support section fitting in the bore.

19. The method according to claim 11, wherein at least one of the rollers comprises a grinding or polishing face non-detachably arranged at an end face of the roller.

20. The method according to claim 19, wherein the grinding or polishing face is integrally formed with the roller.

21. The method according to claim 20, wherein the grinding or polishing face comprises a ceramic coating.

22. The method according to claim 11, wherein the grip body is made of wood.

23. The method according to claim 11, wherein the grip body is made of oak wood, walnut wood, beech wood, or spruce wood in one piece.

24. The method according to claim 11, wherein the grip body is a hollow cylinder.

25. The method according to claim 11, wherein an outer diameter of the grip body is in the range of 50 to 60 mm.

26. The method according to claim 11, wherein an axial length of the grip body is in the range of 55 to 75 mm.

27. The method according to claim 11, wherein each of the rollers is a cylindrical disc.

28. The method according to claim 11, wherein each of the rollers is formed of stainless steel.

29. The method according to claim 11, wherein each of the rollers comprises a circumferential annular groove on a circumferential side thereof and a rubber ring fitted in the circumferential annular groove.

30. The method according to claim 29, wherein each of the rollers comprises a rounded or chamfered transition from the circumferential side provided with the annular groove to an end face of the roller.

31. The method according to claim 11, wherein an outside diameter of each of the rollers is in the range of 40 to 60 mm.

32. The method according to claim 11, wherein each of the rollers is connected to the shaft by press-fitting in a frictionally engaged manner, wherein each of the rollers is inserted into the shaft,wherein the shaft forms a female component and has a bore, andwherein each of the rollers forms a male component and comprises a support section fitting into the bore.

33. The method of claim 32, wherein an insertion bevel or chamfer is formed on said roller to facilitate said press-fitting.

34. A method for producing a rolling grinder having at least one grinding or polishing face for grinding or polishing a cutting tool, comprising: connecting two rollers to a shaft such that the rollers and the shaft are frictionally engaged,wherein a grip body is arranged between the rollers and rotatable relative to the rollers,wherein the shaft is rotatably supported in the grip body,wherein each of the rollers is inserted into the shaft,wherein the shaft forms a female component and comprises a bore, andwherein each of the rollers forms a male component and comprises a support section configured to fit in the bore.
