  • Patent number: 10632539
    Abstract: A device for the fine machining of a circumferential workpiece surface arranged eccentrically relative to an axis of a workpiece. The device comprises a pressure mechanism configured to press a fine-machining tool against the circumferential workpiece surface. The device also includes a drive unit configured to drive an active section of the pressure mechanism via a first drive and a second drive. The first drive drives the active section in a movement plane that runs crosswise to the workpiece axis along a first movement trajectory. The second drive drives the active section along a second movement trajectory that is at an angle to the first movement trajectory.

  • Patent number: 10307879
    Abstract: Device and method for the finishing machining of an internal face of a workpiece, such as the track of a ball screw, including a workpiece holder and a finishing tool held on a finishing tool holder. A rotary drive is provided, by which the workpiece holder and the finishing tool is rotationally driven relative to one another about a rotational axis. A linear drive is provided, by which the finishing tool held on the finishing tool holder and the workpiece holder is driven in a translatory manner relative to one another along the rotational axis. An oscillating drive is provided, by which the finishing tool held on the finishing tool holder and the workpiece holder is driven in an oscillating manner relative to one another in the direction parallel to the rotational axis and wherein the finishing tool is pivotably held on the finishing tool holder about a pivot axis.

  • Patent number: 10166648
    Abstract: A finishing belt device includes a pressure apparatus having a pressure roller that applies a pressing force to the rear side of a finishing belt that, when viewed in the running direction of the finishing belt, an active side of the finishing belt is pressed against a peripheral surface to be finished of a workpiece in a linear contact region at the level of the pressing force. A pressure roller support is provided with the pressure roller arranged as a first pressure roller and another pressure roller is arranged as a second pressure roller. When viewed in the running direction of the finishing belt, the active side of the finishing belt is pressed against the peripheral surface to be finished of the workpiece in two spaced-apart linear contact regions via the two pressure rollers. The invention also relates to a method for finishing a peripheral surface of a cam surface.

  • Publication number: 20100003903
    Abstract: This disclosure concerns a device for machining surfaces, e.g., superfinishing, polishing, grinding or lapping spherical shells or flattened domes of a workpiece, or, for example, a ball joint, using a tool having a machining stone with a workpiece receiver, a first drive for an oscillating motion about a first axis of the workpiece, a tool holder and a second drive for an oscillating motion about a second axis of the tool holder, whereby the axes are an angle to one another.

  • Publication number: 20060232106
    Abstract: The invention relates to an assembly space in a motor vehicle for the reception of operating assemblies, which is mounted in front of a dashboard separating a passenger space from an engine space capable of being covered by means of a hood and which is closed all round with the exception of an access orifice pointing towards the hood. To achieve a cost-saving and space-saving integration of an air supply device, normally arranged separately in the engine space, for an air consumer arranged in the passenger space into the assembly space, the assembly space has produced in it a gastight incoming air connection to an air inlet orifice arranged in the hood, a water separator is integrated and a waste air orifice is arranged in such a way that it is approximately congruent with the intake orifice of the air consumer in the dashboard.
