  • Patent number: 11998995
    Abstract: A modular boring head includes a tubular main body having an internal thread with a first pitch and a pair of axially extending cantilevered members. A movable rod engages the tubular main body such that the movable rod is movable with respect to the tubular main body in an axial direction, D. The movable rod has an internal thread with a second pitch different than the first pitch. A leadscrew is disposed within the tubular main body and has a plurality of gear teeth. Rotation of the leadscrew causes the pair of axially extending cantilevered members of the tubular main body to cooperatively engage with the plurality of gear teeth of the leadscrew in such a manner so as to produce an audible and tactile click, each click being indicative of a distance the movable rod is displaced with respect to the tubular main body.

  • Patent number: 10799958
    Abstract: A modular rotary cutting tool includes a cutting head for insertion into a support. The cutting head has a coupling pin having torque surfaces and clamping surfaces formed on its outer peripheral surface. The coupling pin is divided into a front pin part and a rear pin part. The front pin part is defined by a circumferential groove. Stop surfaces for an axial pullout prevention are formed between the front pin part and the rear pin part. The torque surfaces and the clamping surfaces are arranged in different pin parts. For example, the clamping surfaces are preferably formed on the front pin part and the torque surfaces are preferably formed on the rear pin part. The clamping surfaces taper radially inward in a direction of the front cutting part at an angle of inclination, ?2, with respect to the axis of rotation. Other variants and embodiments are broadly contemplated herein.

  • Patent number: 10040132
    Abstract: The rotary tool comprises a support and a cutting head which can be inserted into a pin receptacle of the support via a coupling pin. The support and the cutting head have mutually corresponding surface sections for transferring a radial clamping force and have mutually corresponding torque sections for transferring torque. For an axial pull-out stop device, effective stop surfaces are formed on the pin receptacle and on the coupling pin in the axial direction, wherein, to do this, a stop element is formed, the radial extension of which is smaller than or equal to a radial extension (r2) of the surface sections of the coupling pin and wherein the stop surfaces and the surface section are offset relative to each other in the circumferential direction.

  • Patent number: 7090447
    Abstract: A twist drill or drill/chamfer tool that comprises a drill with a shaft section. The shaft section is provided with a twisted flute and a clamping ring as the retainer of a facing cutter. The clamping ring tubularly encloses the shaft section or the drill shaft and can be fixed on the shaft section or drill shaft in different axial adjustable positions. The clamping ring can be tensioned on the drill with tension screws that extend through the clamping ring substantially radially to the axis of the drill. The tension screws impinge the surfaces of the twisted flutes, which twisted flutes are enclosed by the clamping ring indirectly with a clamping shoe that is interposed in a twisted flute.

  • Patent number: 6374712
    Abstract: A side milling cutter with cutting inserts, by which side milling cutter a crank pin can be cut with a single feed motion. The plate-shaped cutting inserts are arranged on the periphery of the side milling cutter alternating between the left and right side in a peripheral direction, and are oriented essentially radially with their cover surfaces in relation to the cutter axis, which cover surfaces contain the tool faces. The cutting inserts are also arranged so as to form a gap on the periphery of the cutter which is so narrow that the length of the arc of action between the point of entry and the point of exit of cutting is greater than the half of the gap of the arrangement of cutting inserts on the periphery of the cutter. The present invention also relates to the configuration of the cutting inserts as indexable inserts which can be used on the left and on the right.

  • Patent number: 6231276
    Abstract: In addition to having a stop member in the form of a hollow cylinder which is slotted and can be spread by means of an adjustment screw, an adjustable stop for a cutter adjustably arranged in a main casting or body of a tool is also provided with a sleeve member which can be inserted into a longitudinal bore of the stop member. The sleeve member has inside threads which can be brought into engagement with the adjustment screw. This results in an improvement of the load carrying capacity of the threaded connection. Since the sleeve member can move in the adjustment direction, the bending load on the adjustment screw is reduced.

  • Patent number: 4067916
    Abstract: A process is provided for the manufacture of fluoralkyliodides of high molecular weight from the corresponding perfluoralkyliodides of lower molecular weight. In this process a perfluoralkyliodide is telomerized with a perfluorethylene or a perfluorpropylene each optionally containing at most one chlorine atom, and an amine, in the presence of a metal salt of a metal of groups IIIa, IIIb to VIIIb of the 4th to 6th period or of groups Ia or IIa of the Period Table as a catalyst at 0.degree. to 350.degree. C and under a pressure from 0 to 200 atmospheres (gauge).The so-obtained products are useful as intermediates for the manufacture of carboxylic acids or alcohols or for reaction with non-fluoro compounds. The products thus obtained may be used as agents for conferring oleophobic or hydrophobic proerties, as soil release agents or also as hydraulic fluids.
