Patent number: 10160087Abstract: A honing method for machining the inner surface of a bore in a workpiece via at least one honing operation using an expandable honing tool with an annular cutting group. The method includes coupling of the honing tool to a working spindle of a machine tool, and; inserting the honing tool into an inlet of the bore with the cutting material elements retracted, until it is in a final insertion position, in which the cutting group is located in an end region of the bore. Then the honing tool is turned and the annular cutting group is simultaneously expanded to create a cylindrical widening of the bore, followed by withdrawal of the honing tool from the bore with simultaneous turning of the honing tool in such a way that the bore is successively further widened in the direction of the inlet side.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2015Date of Patent: December 25, 2018Assignee: Elgan-Diamantwerkzeuge GmbH & Co.

Publication number: 20160303702Abstract: In a honing method for machining the internal surface of a bore in a workpiece with the aid of at least one honing operation, during a honing operation, an expandable honing tool is moved up and down within the bore in order to produce a reciprocating movement in the axial direction of the bore and at the same time is rotated in order to produce a rotational movement combined with the reciprocating movement. In the process, a bottle-shaped bore is produced, said bore having, following a bore inlet, a first bore section with a first diameter, a second bore section with a second diameter, which is larger than the first diameter, away from the bore inlet, and a transition section with a continuous transition from the first to the second diameter between the first and the second bore section.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 10, 2014Publication date: October 20, 2016Applicant: ELGAN-Diamantwerkzeuge GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 9230800Abstract: Methods of depositing a film on a substrate surface include surface mediated reactions in which a film is grown over one or more cycles of reactant adsorption and reaction. In one aspect, the method is characterized by the following operations: (a) exposing the substrate surface to a first reactant in vapor phase under conditions allowing the first reactant to adsorb onto the substrate surface; (b) exposing the substrate surface to a second reactant in vapor phase while the first reactant is adsorbed on the substrate surface; and (c) exposing the substrate surface to plasma to drive a reaction between the first and second reactants adsorbed on the substrate surface to form the film.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2014Date of Patent: January 5, 2016Assignee: Novellus Systems, Inc.Inventors: Adrien LaVoie, Shankar Swaminathan, Hu Kang, Ramesh Chandrasekharan, Tom Dorsh, Dennis M.
