Abstract
The invention relates to a device for receiving workpieces to be balanced in a machine for performing an unbalance compensation having a bearing device (2) arranged on a machine frame for rotatable mounting of the workpiece (3) around a bearing axis (L), wherein the bearing device (2) has at least one bearing block (10) having two bearing shells (18, 19) differing in diameter and lying adjacent to each other in a direction transverse to the bearing axis (L). The bearing block (10) is movable transversely to the bearing axis (L) of the bearing device (2) into two bearing positions and another one of the two bearing shells (18, 19) is aligned centrally to the bearing axis (L) in each of the two bearing positions.
Claims6
A device for receiving workpieces to be balanced in a machine for performing an unbalance correction, with a bearing device arranged on a machine frame for supporting the workpiece for rotation about a bearing axis L,
- wherein the bearing device includes at least one bearing block having two bearing elements differing in diameter and lying next to each other in a direction transverse to the bearing axis,
- wherein the bearing block is movable transversely to the bearing axis of the bearing device into first and second bearing positions,
- wherein in each of the first and second bearing positions another one of the two bearing elements is aligned centrally to the bearing axis,
- wherein the at least one bearing block is adjustable relative to the machine frame in the direction of the bearing axis,
- wherein the at least one bearing block is arranged on a slide movable along a straight-line guide provided on a slide carrier, and
- wherein the slide carrier mounts a drive mechanism enabling the slide to be moved into the bearing positions.
