  • Publication number: 20120225735

  • Patent number: 8215878
    Abstract: An indirect cooling system for a rotating cutting tool uses a cryogenic coolant that is delivered to a cavity formed on the back surface of the cutting element, providing cooling near the cutting edge of the element. Because the total flow rate of the working fluid is low (less than 0.08 Liters/min/cutting edge), the fluid can be safely vented to atmosphere from the cavity, and as a result, no specialized coolant recovery or ventilation equipment is needed. The cavity may be formed with fins to enhance the heat transfer between the cutting element and the coolant, and coolant may additionally be sprayed directly onto the exterior surface of the element to cool the tool-chip interface. The indirect cooling system may be used for hard to machine metals and composites, as well as the machining of conventional materials without the use of traditional cutting fluids.

  • Patent number: 8206244
    Abstract: The present invention is a unique fairway wood type golf club. The club is a fairway wood type golf club characterized by a long blade length with a long heel blade length section, while having a small club moment arm and a low center of gravity relative to a face height of the club, and all the benefits afforded therefrom. The fairway wood incorporates the discovery of unique relationships among key club head engineering variables that are inconsistent with merely striving to obtain a high MOIy using conventional golf club head design wisdom. The resulting fairway wood has a face closing moment of inertia (MOIfc) that provides golfers with a feel similar to that of a modern driver or hybrid golf club.

  • Publication number: 20120093604
    Abstract: A rotary coolant adapter that is compatible with commercially available tool holders attaches to a rotary tool holder to supply coolant to a flow path in a rotary tool. The rotary coolant adapter has a stationary outer housing and a stationary supply tube for supplying coolant to an annular coolant manifold that surrounds a portion of the rotary tool holder. An internal radial feed tube supplies coolant from the annular coolant manifold to the flow path in the tool. Bearings support the stationary outer housing on the rotary coolant holder, and seals are located between the annular coolant manifold and the bearings to prevent coolant leakage from the annular manifold reaching the bearings.

  • Publication number: 20100272530
    Abstract: Cryogenic fluids are delivered along an axial path through a machine tool spindle to a cutting tool that is mounted in a standard tool holder. An external source of cryogen is delivered via an insulated line to a junction block housing where the cryogen flows into a vacuum insulated coolant delivery tube mounted on the axis of rotation of the spindle. The coolant delivery tube couples with a cryogenic manifold located in a standard tool holder in the end of the spindle. The cryogenic manifold couples the cryogen to a tool that is mounted in the tool holder. Before a tool change operation, the coolant delivery tube is raised to disconnect it from the cryogenic manifold, and to turn off the flow of cryogen to the delivery tube.

  • Patent number: 6862573
    Abstract: An automated knowledge dependent transaction management system for processing both the front-end and back-end of a transaction is provided. The system contains hard-coded transaction management module to support the processing of deterministic manual work independent of the specific transactions. According to the invention, the hard-coded module is separated from the business logic that comprise the definition and configuration of the transaction specific data models, business rules and process steps which drive the manual work of human operators. Such separation of code and business logic allows any ordinary business administrator without any computer programming experience to quickly develop the business logic through a simple GUI. Further, any change in the business logic can be implemented quickly using the GUI by the ordinary administrator to accommodate changes in the business environment without relying on computer programmers.

  • Patent number: 4344711
    Abstract: An improved mixing apparatus involves a vessel having an interior surface in the shape of at least two intersecting conical frustums with axes parallel and substantially vertical. At least two interengaging helical screw elements are rotatably mounted within the vessel such that when co-rotated they interengage along their length and also conform to the interior surface of the vessel to effect a complete cleaning of each other and of the interior surface of the vessel. The bottom portion of the screw elements form a pressure generating zone and the upper portion of the screw elements form a mixing zone having a hollow center described by the co-rotating screw elements. In the mixing zone each screw element includes a continuous transition from a multilobal cross-section, e.g., trilobal cross-section (bounded by three equal arcs), to a circular cross-section. The circular cross-sections of the screw elements in the upper part of the mixing zone, i.e.

  • Patent number: 4115509
    Abstract: Cured thermoset plastics artefacts, (including extrusions) are made directly from a non-homogeneous blend of a filler and a solid particulate thermosetting material, by use of a screw injection moulding machine (or screw extruder) which is operated to cause the non-homogeneous blend to plasticize or flux so that a homogeneous intimate mixture of the filler and the thermosetting material is formed in the barrel of the machine. Thus, the moulding (or extrusion) sequence includes the provision or formation of the non-homogeneous blend in the barrel.
