  • Patent number: 7022252
    Abstract: The permanent magnetic alloy of the present invention comprises an R—Fe—B alloy wherein R is at least one element selected from rare earth elements including Y. The R—Fe—B alloy has a composition mainly comprising Fe, substantially containing no N, and containing 4 at. % or more of B. The permanent magnetic alloy substantially comprises a TbCu7 hard magnetic phase (main phase) and a fine crystal having an average crystal grain size of less than 5 nm and/or an amorphous phase, and has high magnetic properties.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6637984
    Abstract: An indexable insert having a heat absorbing performance, and an indexable tool using the same. The indexable insert is attached, when used, to a shank or holder having fluid inlet and outlet passages. The heat absorption indexable insert comprises: a corridor-shaped cooling passage disposed inside of a plurality of corners and circulating the vicinities of the individual corners sequentially; and a connecting passage arranged in an end portion region of the cooling passage so as to communicate with the inlet passage and the outlet passage even when any corner is used.

  • Patent number: 4770572
    Abstract: A press for manufacturing helical gears having a punch with a cutting edge; a die with a cutting edge, one of the cutting edges being shaped as a helical gear and the other having a shape corresponding to the shape of the one cutting edge; and a bolster rotatable about an axis and provided with one of the die and the punch. The die and said punch are pressed together and the bolster is rotatably driven by a driving element in response to a lead of a helical gear to be manufactured. The stroke of the punch is detected and a desired rotation angle of a driving element is calculated and then signalled to the driving element.

  • Patent number: 4282996
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for continuous cold cutting or slitting of a flat material wherein the flat material is subjected to a first step of partial-shearing or penetration in a zigzag state to a controlled depth of penetration, and subsequently to a second step of flattening, thus forcing the penetration formed in the material back to substantially the original thickness of the material, thereby to perform complete severing or slitting the material having no burrs formed during the operation. The first working action is obtained from feeding of the flat material into the controlled spacing of opposing pairs of cutter discs so that there occurs partially shearing or penetration in the flat material under an optimally predetermined interfering action by the opposing pairs of cutter discs into the material when it engages therewith.
