Patent number: 7074116Abstract: A combination tool for machining a bore has a tool shaft transmitting a rotational movement and an oscillating movement in an axial direction of a bore to be machined with the tool. A horning tool is arranged on the tool shaft, and a deburring tool is arranged on the tool shaft at an axial spacing to the honing tool in a direction of a longitudinal axis of the tool shaft. The honing tool is configured to move for each honing stroke between a lower position and an upper position wherein a spacing between a lower edge of the honing tool and a lower edge of the deburring tool in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the tool is greater than a spacing of the lower edge of the honing tool to a workpiece surface when the honing tool is in the lower position.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2002Date of Patent: July 11, 2006Assignee: Maschinenfabrik Gehring GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 6973367Abstract: In a method for machining bores of workpieces with a desired nominal shape of the bores in operative condition, a bore with a desired nominal shape in inoperative condition is produced in a workpiece and the workpiece is then put in operative condition. A deviation of the desired nominal shape of the bore resulting from the operative conditions is determined. Based on the deviation, an initial shape which shape the bore must have in inoperative condition in order for the bore to assume the desired nominal shape in operative condition is the determined. Bores are then produced by employing the determined initial shape as a template.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2004Date of Patent: December 6, 2005Assignee: Maschinenfabrik Gehring GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 6960121Abstract: In a method for honing a bore having first and second sections sequentially arranged in an axial direction of the bore, wherein the first section is hardened so that the first and second sections have different hardness, a honing tool is radially supported by positioning guides of the honing tool on the second bore section. first section is machined with honing stones arranged on the honing tool to remove material from the first section. During machining of the first section, the honing tool is expanded by feeding the honing stones according to a defined feeding mode against a surface of the first section by a force-guided electro-mechanical advancement. During machining of the first section, the working stroke of the honing tool is adjusted continuously at least toward the end of the honing process. Feeding of the guides is realized independently of feeding of the honing stones.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2004Date of Patent: November 1, 2005Assignee: Gehring GmbH & Co.

Publication number: 20050155451Abstract: A connecting rod (1) has a small connecting rod eye (2) and a large connecting rod eye (3). A bearing shell (4, 5) is disposed in at least one connecting rod eye (2, 3), wherein the bearing shell (4, 5) is held in the connecting rod eye (2, 3) for secure mutual rotation therewith. To obtain good adhesion of the bearing shell (4, 5) in the connecting rod eye (2, 3), the bore surface (12, 13) in one connecting rod eye (2, 3) and/or the outer surface of a bearing shell (4, 5) has/have a structure (6, 7, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 37, 38), wherein the structure (6, 7, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 37, 38) is formed by elevations (9), the elevations (9) delimiting the outer periphery of depressions (8). In a method for producing a connecting rod (1) comprising at least one connecting rod eye (2, 3) with a structured surface (12, 13), wherein a bearing shell (4, 5) is disposed in the connecting rod eye (2, 3) after structuring of the surface, the surface (12, 13) is structured with a laser.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2004Publication date: July 21, 2005Applicant: Gehring GmbH & Co.
