Abstract: Cams which meet all strength requirements and can be shrunk on a shaft can be made in a simple manner by sintering from a nickel- and copper-free mixture which comprises iron powder and contains 0.3 to 1.0 weight percent carbon and molybdenum and/or tungsten in such amounts that the sum of the molybdenums content and the tungsten content multiplied with the ratio of the atomic weight of molybdenum to the atomic weight of tungsten lies between 0.5 and 3 weight percent.

Abstract: The tool for machining pneumatic tires for vehicles comprises a plurality of peripherally consecutive, segment-shaped cutter blades, which constitute a peripheral surface of the tool and are axially spaced apart and extend in planes that are transverse to the axis of the tool. Each of said blades has a radially outer edge and cutting tools carried by said outer edge. The radially outer edge of each of said blades comprises at least one tooth-carrying edge portion which is bent out of the plane of said blade. Peripherally consecutive ones of said tooth-carrying edge portions of said tool are bent out to opposite sides.

Abstract: A segment-shaped blade is provided for use in a rotatable cylindrical tool for machining elastic material, particularly pneumatic rubber tires for vehicles. The blade comprises teeth defined at the convex periphery by approximately V-shaped or circular or oval cuts. Said teeth include one or more triangular teeth and one or more trapezoidal teeth, which precede said triangular teeth in the direction of rotation of the tool and have prongs that are directed toward each other and are bent to different sides out of the plane of the blade. The triangular tooth or teeth are divided by one or more radial cuts into two or more triangular teeth, the prongs of which are bent to different sides out of the plane of the blade. The trapezoidal teeth have preferably legs of equal length. The two prongs of a trapezoidal tooth which are directed toward each other are defined in known manner by a punched circular hole, which is symmetrical to the periphery of the tooth.

Abstract: A segment-shaped blade is provided for use in a rotatable cylindrical tool for machining elastic material, particularly pneumatic rubber tires for vehicles. The blade comprises pointed triangular teeth, which are provided on a convex periphery and are staggered and divided by radial cuts. Each radial cut extends only as far as to the root of the tooth concerned and each triangular tooth is divided by one or more radial cuts into at least two triangular prongs which have pointed tips that are much more slender than the pointed tip of the original tooth.
