Abstract
An abrasive wheel has a central support and an abrasive ring releasably and exchangeably fastened thereto and which on the one hand bears against an annular flange connected with the support and is braced against this by means of a locking ring and a locking flange.
Claims4
An abrasive wheel, in particular an abrasive roughing wheel or abrasive cutting-off wheel, comprising
- a support (1, 1', 1", 1"') formed to be concentrical of an axis of symmetry (3) and having a hub (4, 4', 4'"), and
- an abrasive tool arranged on the support (1, 1', 1', 1'"),
- wherein the abrasive tool arranged is formed as an abrasive ring (2, 2'", 44) independent of the support (1, 1', 1", 1'"), and wherein, in the vicinity of its outer circumference the support (1, 1', 1", 1'") is provided with an accommodation (12, 12", 12'") adjusting the abrasive ring (2, 2'", 44) central with the axis of symmetry (3), and with a releasable locking device for mounting the abrasive ring (2, 2'", 44) on the support (1, 1', 1", 1'"),
- wherein in the area of one side (6) the support (1, 1', 1", 1'") has, as part of the locking device, an annular flange (10, 10", 10'") projecting from its outer circumference and against which bears the abrasive ring (2, 2'", 44),
- wherein the annular flange (10", 10'") is arranged in alignment with the rear (45) of the abrasive ring (2'", 44) in a recess (47) of the abrasive ring (44),
- wherein a locking ring (14, 14 ', 14", 14'") is connectable with the support (1, 1', 1") and has a locking flange (28, 28", 28'") bearing against the abrasive ring (2, 2'", 44)
- wherein the locking ring (14") is provided with an annular nut (29) screwable into the support (1").

- an abrasive tool arranged on the support (1, 1', 1", 1'"),
- wherein the abrasive tool is formed as an abrasive ring (2, 2'", 44) independent of the support (1, 1', 1", 1'"), the abrasive ring being provided with at least one reinforcement layer (43) and wherein, in the vicinity of its outer circumference, the support (1, 1', 1", 1'") is provided with an accommodation (12, 12", 12'") adjusting the abrasive ring (2, 2'", 44) central with the axis of symmetry (3), and with a releasable locking device for mounting the abrasive ring (2, 2'", 44) on the support (1, 1', 1", 1'"),
- wherein in the area of one side (6) the support (1, 1', 1", 1'") has, as part of the locking device, an annular flange (10, 10", 10'") projecting from its outer circumference and against which bears the abrasive ring (2, 2'", 44),
- wherein the releasable locking device comprises a locking ring (14, 14', 14", 14'") which is releasably connectable with the support (1, 1', 1") and has a locking flange (28, 28", 28'") bearing against the abrasive ring (2, 2'", 44),
- wherein the annular flange (10") and the locking flange (28") have the same extension (a, c) radial to the axis of symmetry (3),
- wherein the locking ring (14, 14' 14", 14") is arranged in alignment with the abrasive ring (2, 2'", 44) in a recess (22, 22", 22'") of the abrasive ring (2, 2'", 44), and
- wherein the annular flange (10", 10'" ) is arranged in alignment with the rear (45) of abrasive ring (2'", 44) in a recess (47) of the abrasive ring (44),
- wherein for an extension (a) of the locking flange (28, 28", 28'") radial to the axis of symmetry (3) in relation to an difference of the exterior radius (ra) and an interior radius (ri) of the abrasive ring (2, 44)
- 0.01 (ra-ri).ltoreq.a.ltoreq.0.1 (ra-ri) applies.
