  • Publication number: 20110281511
    Abstract: The invention relates to a synthetic-resin-bonded grinding disk comprising a mixture of abrasive grain, binding agent, and pore formers, wherein the pore formers are plant seeds and are contained in the finished grinding disk. The grinding disk is composed of 60 to 90 wt % of abrasive grain and 10 to 40 wt % of a binding agent, wherein the plant seeds constitute up to 80 wt % of the binding agent. The plant seeds can contain oil and can be rape seeds, poppy seeds, clover seed, lupin seeds, mustard seeds, serradella vetch seeds, or similar plant seeds. The grinding disk can be produced by mixing abrasive grain, binding agent, and plant seeds, pouring the starting mixture into a mold provided therefor, pressing the mixture, pre-drying the mixture, and curing the grinding disk. The plant seeds are not burned in the production of the grinding disk. The grinding disk is cured at temperatures of up to 250° C., preferably of up to 200° C., more preferably of up to 180° C., and more preferably of up to 150° C.

  • Patent number: 7172501
    Abstract: A flapped grinding disk having a disk- or plate-shaped support including an outer periphery, and a plurality of spaced-apart, discrete groups of grinding flaps forming a plurality of apertures, wherein the flaps overlap each other on the support in the manner of shingles, are secured in an adhesive bed, and define an outer circumference, wherein the radial dimension of the aperture from the outer periphery of the support to the outer circumference is substantially commensurate with the radial dimension of the groups of grinding flaps from the outer periphery of the support to the outer circumference.

  • Patent number: 7004829
    Abstract: The flapped grinding disk comprises a disk- or plate-shaped support and grinding flaps which overlap each other on the support in the manner of shingles and which are secured in an adhesive bed. Apertures are cut away on the periphery of the flapped grinding disk, the apertures have approximately the form of a part of an annulus with a front edge and an edge at the rear in the direction of rotation of the grinding disk and at least the edge of the apertures that is at the rear in the direction of rotation of the grinding disk runs approximately radially. The grinding flap adjoining the rear edge of the aperture can form a ramp. The front edge of the apertures can also run approximately radially. The radial depth of the apertures can be equal to the radial extent of the grinding flaps, so that no remnants of grinding flaps remain at the inner edge of the apertures.

  • Patent number: 5092082
    Abstract: Laminated grinding disks are built up in layers with the interposition of at least one layer of vibration-damping materials as sound insulation, the layer of vibration-damping materials being placed in the mold in the form of fine, free-flowing powder and/or granules. The powder or granules can consist of elastomers which can withstand heating to more than 110.degree. C. The elastomer can be mixed with synthetic resin. The addition of filler improves the working qualities of the mixture and improves its granulability.
