Abstract: A grinding machine includes a wheel spindle stock in which a wheel spindle is rotatably provided. The wheel spindle moves between first and second spindles so that a third rotation axis of the wheel spindle moves in the direction perpendicular to first and second rotation axes on an XZ plane extending through the first and second rotation axes. The grinding wheel that is held by the wheel spindle grinds a first workpiece as the wheel spindle stock moves toward a first headstock, and grinds a second workpiece as the wheel spindle stock moves toward a second headstock.

Abstract: A first angular grinding wheel and a straight grinding wheel having rotation axes parallel to each other are arranged on a swivel slide that turns about a turning axis. A reference symmetry plane (MA) that is parallel to a grinding wheel rotation axis and that includes the turning axis and a reference perpendicular plane (MB) that is perpendicular to the reference symmetry plane and that includes the turning axis are defined. A grinding reference point (PA1) of the first angular grinding wheel (TA1) and a grinding reference point (PP1) of the straight grinding wheel (TP1) are arranged asymmetrical with respect to the reference symmetry plane. A distance from the grinding reference point of the straight grinding wheel to the reference symmetry plane is equal to a distance from the grinding reference point of the first angular grinding wheel to the turning axis.

Abstract: In a tool spindle device, a tool head is slidably guided along guide members on a support table and is movable by a tool head feed mechanism. A tool spindle with a machining tool such as grinding wheel attached thereto is rotatably supported through antifriction bearings in the tool head. A lubrication mechanism is provided in the tool head for lubricating the antifriction bearings with oil air or oil mist. A space section is formed between the support table and the tool head to house the tool head feed mechanism and the guide members therein. A release passage is provided for releasing the oil air or the oil mist after lubricating the antifriction bearings, into the first space section therethrough to lubricate the tool head feed mechanism and the guide members housed in the space section.
