Thus, the scattering to the surrounding environment of the sand sprayed by the sandblasting gun 111 is reduced and the operating environment is improved.

[0095] In this embodiment, the sandblasting roughening device further includes a dust remover 17 connected to the sandblasting chamber by the dust removal pipelines. During the working process of the sandblasting roughening device, the sand inevitably scatters in the sandblasting chamber, and the working environment is adversely affected. The dust in the sandblasting chamber is drawn into the dust remover 17 by a draught fan and the like, so that the dust is removed and after the dust is removed, the air is discharged to the outer environment, thus the operating environment is improved and protected.

[0096] Further, the sandblasting roughening device further includes a filter 16 which is arranged between the dust removal pipelines and the dust remover 17. Before the dust in the sandblasting chamber entering the dust remover 17, the dust first enters the filter 16 to be filtered, thus the dust removal effect is enhanced and the dust remover 17 is protected. A discharged air filter 18 is arranged at an outlet of the dust remover 17, thus the air discharged to the outer environment is further purified.

[0097] As shown in FIG. 7, in the embodiment, for preventing the sandblasting gun 111 from spraying the sand into the workpiece, the sandblasting roughening device further includes a blocking plate assembly fixed above the station where the sandblasting tool 14, which the sandblasting gun 111 aims at, is located. The blocking plate assembly includes a blocking plate 113, a connecting rod which is fixedly connected to the blocking plate 113, is movable upward and downward and is rotatable, and a connecting rod driving device. When a certain sandblasting tool 14 rotates together with the rotary table 110 to the station where the sandblasting gun 111 is located, the connecting rod driving device drives the connecting rod to move downward and drives the blocking plate 113 to block an opening at an upper end of the workpiece to prevent the sand from entering inside of the workpiece. Since the connecting rod is rotatable, during the process that the sandblasting tool 14 drives the workpiece to rotate, the blocking plate 113 rotates together with the workpiece and may not interfere with the rotation of the workpiece.

[0098] As shown in FIG. 8, a tool driving device 15 is provided according to the embodiment, which includes a tool motor 151, a friction wheel shaft 153, a first friction wheel 141, a second friction wheel 154 and a chain 152. The tool motor 151 and the friction wheel shaft 153 are transmitted and connected by the chain 152, the second friction wheel 154 is fixedly connected to the friction wheel shaft 153, and the first friction wheel 141 is connected to a rotation shaft of the sandblasting tool 14. Preferably, a rotation axis of the first friction wheel 141 is arranged to be perpendicular to a rotation axis of the second friction wheel 154. A wheel surface of the second friction wheel 154 is in a frictional contact with an edge of a plane at one side of the first friction wheel 141. The first friction wheel 141 is driven to rotate by a pivoting friction of the second friction wheel 154. The rotation shaft of each of the sandblasting tools 14 is provided with one first friction wheel 141. When a certain sandblasting tool 14 rotates together with the rotary table 110 to a station where the sandblasting gun 111 is located, the first friction wheel 141 is in a frictional contact with the second friction wheel 154 of the tool driving device 15 located on the station, the tool motor 151 works and the sandblasting tool 14 is driven to rotate. Of course, the number of the friction wheel shafts 153 is determined according to the practical needs and may be one, two, three or more than three. At least one tool driving device 15 is arranged on the station where the sandblasting tool 14 is located and the sandblasting gun 111 aims at the sandblasting tool 14, and the tool driving device 15 may also be arranged on the stations where other sandblasting tools 14 are located. The friction wheel shaft 153 may also be transmitted and connected to the tool motor 151 by gears and so on. Moreover, the tool driving device 15 may also be other forms, for example, the rotation shaft of each sandblasting tool 14 is directly transmitted and connected to one tool motor 151 as long as the sandblasting tool 14 can be driven to rotate, and the forms are not limited to the forms listed in the embodiment.

[0099] Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 8, the tool driving device 15 is rotatably connected to a supporting frame 114 of the sandblasting roughening device, the rotation axis of the tool driving device 15 is perpendicular to the axis of the friction wheel shaft 153, the friction wheel shaft 153 can rotate around the rotation axis of the tool driving device 15, thus allowing the second friction wheel 154 to get close to or be away from the first friction wheel 141. The tool driving device 15 is driven to rotate by a telescoping mechanism 155. In a case that the sandblasting tool 14 is required to be driven to rotate, the telescoping mechanism 155 acts on the tool driving device 15 and the second friction wheel 154 is raised to contact with the first friction wheel 141. In a case that the sandblasting tool 14 is not required to be driven to rotate, the telescoping mechanism 155 acts in a reverse direction and the second friction wheel 154 descends and disengages the first friction wheel 141. Of course, the telescoping mechanism 155 may not be provided, in such case, the second friction wheel 154 of the tool driving device 15 is always in contact with the first friction wheel 141, and only the rotation of the rotary table 110 is affected to a certain degree and the rotation may not smooth. The telescoping mechanism 155 may be a telescoping cylinder and so on.

[0100] As shown in FIG. 7, the rotary table 110 of the sandblasting roughening device includes a tool table, a rotary table shaft 1101 and a rotary table motor 1102. The tool table is fixedly connected to the rotary table shaft 1101, and the rotary table shaft 1101 is transmitted and connected to the rotary table motor 1102. Both the rotary table shaft 1101 and the rotary table motor 1102 are located above the tool table and the rotary table motor 1102 drives the tool table to rotate by a reduction box, a self-centering keyless bushing and the rotary table shaft 1101.
