Abstract
The invention relates to a device for polishing hard surfaces, especially glass surfaces, said device comprising polishing system (5) provided with a replaceable polishing disk (6). Said polishing system (5) can be displaced in a two-dimensional manner by means of a displacement device (10) comprising a holding element (11) for the polishing system (5), and guiding elements (12, 18; 20, 25) for displacing the holding element (11) in XY directions. The inventive device enables hard surfaces to be repaired in a simple and precise manner.
Claims18
Device for polishing hard surfaces, comprising:
- a motor-driven polishing device;
- and
- a displacement device that moves said polishing device, said displacement device comprising:
- a guide shaft;
- a guide rod oriented at a right angle to said guide shaft;
- a guide bush movable longitudinally along said guide shaft, said guide rod being coupled to said guide bush at one end region such that said guide rod is movable relative to said guide shaft as said guide bush moves along said guide shaft;
- and
- movement guiding means for holding said polishing device and enabling and guiding movement of said polishing device longitudinally along said guide rod such that said polishing device is movable in an X direction along said guide shaft and in a Y direction along said guide rod, and
- wherein said guide rod is supported at one end region on said guide shaft and at an opposite end region by a roller assembly.
