Patent number: 6865787Abstract: A numerical control (NC) processor with an onboard grinding unit is disclosed in which a workpiece is first cut in a preselected contour with a Y-axis cutting tool, and then subjected to honing operation intact whereby both the cutting and honing operations can be performed with just a single processor with high-speed, high-acceleration. With the NC processor, the Y-axis cutting tool is mounted on a sliding base above an X-axis table in a way allowed to move back and forth in a Y-axis direction, while a grinding unit is installed in close proximity to the sliding base. A slider moves back and forth in synchronized relation with rotation of a work spindle to first let the Y-axis cutting tool cut the workpiece into a preselected contour, and then cause a buffing material of the grinding unit to grind a work surface of the workpiece into a high-quality surface finish in conformity with a programmed contour while the workpiece remains held intact in a chucking device.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2003Date of Patent: March 15, 2005Assignee: Seibu Electric & Machinery Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kouki Shingai, Toshiro Morikawa

Patent number: 6722959Abstract: A glass plate tooling apparatus has independently driven loading and unloading tools which presents raw workpieces to, and removes finished workpieces from a centrally located machining station. The machining station holds the workpiece in a fixed orientation on first and second planes. Machine tools, such as a grinder apparatus and a drill apparatus are independently movable on the first plane to engage with and tool the workpiece. The machining station rotates to provide tool accessibility on a third plane.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2002Date of Patent: April 20, 2004Assignee: Glassline CorporationInventor: Mark Opfer

Patent number: 6675548Abstract: A gantry is constrained to move around the walls of a cylindrical, concrete tank. A rotating, high pressure water spray nozzle is mounted to a moveable platform on the gantry and connected to a source of water at a pressure of over 20,000 psi. The distance between the nozzle and an opposing surface of the wall of the tank is selected so the nozzle can remove the surface of the concrete and produce a selected surface roughness. The platform is moved vertically, with the gantry moving around the tank, so the surface of the concrete is systematically removed and roughened. A shotcrete or gunnite sprayer is then mounted to the platform, and the roughened surface sprayed with shotcrete or gunnite which sticks to the roughened surface. A tensioning head is then mounted to the platform, and wires or cables are tensioned as they are wrapped around the walls.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2001Date of Patent: January 13, 2004Assignee: DYK IncorporatedInventors: Gordon B. Bristol, Robert A. Grogan, Timothy M. Mathews, Stephen T. Rader, James L. Rogers

Patent number: 6632131Abstract: Rotary saw blades (1, 17, 18) for use on a power saw are disclosed for cutting and sanding materials simultaneously. The rotary blades have abrasive sanding means (10, 11) affixed to each face of the blade to accomplish the sanding process. The abrasive means may take the form of donut-shaped abrasive pieces (10) affixed radially inward of blade cutting teeth (3) on each face of the blade or a plurality of abrasive pieces or disks (11) attached to various locations on both faces of the blade. The plurality of abrasive pieces may consist of different grades of sand paper with the heavier grades of paper being radially nearest the teeth and finer grades inward so that the material when cut may be gradually sanded and polished as the cutting occurs. One embodiment provides rotary blades (17, 18) with recessed areas (12, 15) for fixing thicker pieces of adhesive means or for use when the kerf width (9) of the blade teeth (3) is less.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2000Date of Patent: October 14, 2003Inventor: Terry L. Buchholz

Patent number: 6632125Abstract: A method of manufacturing aluminum frames for photomask protective films comprises the step of: providing a square-shaped hollow or solid strut aluminum material, fastening the bottom end of the aluminum material to a base of a machine tool, using a milling cutter to fabricate and form a hollow trough for a selected depth in the aluminum material from the top surface thereof, and using a cutting tool to cut off the aluminum material at the periphery of the hollow trough to form individual aluminum frames for the photomask protective films. The method of the invention uses fewer chucks and screw bolts during machining, and can reduce chuck setup time and simplify machining processes.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2001Date of Patent: October 14, 2003Assignee: Gudeng Precision Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventor: Ming-Chien Chiu
