Josef Weiland has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8574036
    Abstract: An apparatus for machining a planar metal workpiece, having at least one machining unit, with which a machining belt, which is driven in circulation, can be guided in an at least approximately linear manner past the region of the workpiece to be machined in an oblique or transverse manner with respect to a feed direction of the workpiece. A movable carrier element having pressure means acts on a rear side of the machining belt in order to influence contact, necessary for machining, between the working side of the machining belt and the workpiece. A drive arrangement, by way of which the carrier element can be motor-driven, is provided such that the carrier element moves substantially parallel to the direction of movement of the machining belt, at least in the working region of the machining belt.

  • Patent number: 7789735
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for machining a strip or plate-shaped metal workpiece, which comprises at least one conveying device which is provided with machining elements. The conveying device guides the machining elements at an angle and/or in a transversal manner in relation to the direction of advancement of the workpiece in the region of the workpiece which is to be machined in an at least approximately linear manner. The machining elements are embodied as abrasive paper and support elements are arranged between said abrasive paper.

  • Patent number: 7614935
    Abstract: An apparatus for machining a strip- or plate-shaped metallic workpiece is proposed, in particular for the deburring of cut edges and/or for the grinding of surfaces of the workpiece, having at least one machining unit which has a revolving drive device which directs a machining element at least approximately linearly past the region of the workpiece to be machined obliquely or transversely to the feed direction of the workpiece. According to the invention, the machining element is designed as a grinding belt, the grinding belt, in the region of the workpiece to be machined, being in operative connection with the drive device in such a way that the drive device drives the grinding belt, and the grinding belt and the drive device are separate from one another at least in a region remote from the workpiece.
