  • Patent number: 10857652
    Abstract: Provided are: an electroplated tool; a screw-shaped grindstone for grinding a gear; a method for manufacturing the electroplated tool; and a method for manufacturing the crew-shaped grindstone for grinding a gear. Said tool having a parent material, a plating layer that has a high-level portion and a low-level portion formed as strips on the parent material at different heights along the direction intersecting the processing direction, and electrodeposited abrasive grains exposed from the surface of the plating layer. The difference in height of the plating layer is preferably 50-100% of the average particle diameter of the abrasive grains, the width of the high-level portion of the plating layer is preferably 150-200% of the average particle diameter of the abrasive grains, and the width of the low-level portion of the plating layer is preferably 100-800% of the average particle diameter of the abrasive grains.

  • Patent number: 8678880
    Abstract: A device for measuring tooth surface deviation includes a contact detector that measures the deviation at the tooth surface of a dresser with respect to a grinding tooth surface formed on a helical grinding tooth of a grinding tool when the grinding tool and a dresser toothed wheel are rotated synchronously in a state in which the grinding tooth surface and the dresser tooth surface of the dresser toothed wheel can be brought into contact, and detects contact between the grinding tooth surface and the dresser tooth surface; and a controller that changes the speed of rotation of the dresser toothed wheel in such a way that the detection result of the contact detector comes within the range of contact determination data, and also measures the amount by which the grinding tool and the dresser toothed wheel have been changed in one revolution of the dresser toothed wheel.

  • Patent number: 8641482
    Abstract: A gear grinding tool, which includes a helical tooth with grinding faces on surfaces thereof, grinds tooth faces of a gear as a workpiece with the grinding faces. The grinding face includes a rough grinding face for performing a rough grinding process. The grinding face includes a rough grinding face for performing a rough grinding process, and the rough grinding face includes a forming line for performing a finishing process.
