Patent number: 12285830Abstract: Spindle for carrying out machining assisted by non-ultrasonic axial oscillations, including a tool-bearing shaft, and an exciting portion, for subjecting the shaft to non-ultrasonic axial oscillations, especially during its rotation. The exciting portion including a first exciting stage, having at least one piezoelectric actuator, and a second exciting stage, having at least one piezoelectric actuator, having a non-zero axial overlap with the first exciting stage, the actuators of the two stages being arranged so that their effects add.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2020Date of Patent: April 29, 2025Assignee: MITISInventor: Sylvain Laporte

Patent number: 9156116Abstract: The present invention provides an axial machining device comprising a tool-carrier spindle rotatable in a housing, the housing housing a transmission system causing the spindle to advance automatically relative to the housing under the effect of the tool-carrier spindle being driven in rotation, the transmission system including an advance gearwheel screwed onto the spindle, the device including a resilient return member urging the advance gearwheel in a first axial direction opposite to the advance direction of the spindle, and also including a first rolling bearing having rolling members rolling on an undulating raceway having an axial component, thereby periodically urging the advance gearwheel to move in a second direction opposite to the first, such that rotation of the spindle is accompanied by axial vibratory motion.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2010Date of Patent: October 13, 2015Assignee: MITISInventor: Gregoire Peigne
