Abstract: An apparatus for sharpening a beet knife has a plurality of roof-shaped blades next to each other on a knife body has a centering device carrying a centering piece and movable in a Y-direction, a milling device with a mechanically rotatable side miller with a roof-like milling edge movable in the Y-direction toward and away from the centering device, and a guide extending in an X-direction substantially perpendicular to the Y-direction. A grab shiftable in the X-direction on the guide is designed to hold the knife to be sharpened, and respective drives are connected to the centering and milling devices for moving same toward and away from each other in the Y-direction and to the grab for moving same along the guide in the X-direction.

Abstract: An apparatus for machining a spectacle lens by abrasion of material in the area of a joining surface to be formed is provided. The apparatus comprises a tool provided with a cutting end face whose axis of rotation is movable in a forward direction relative to a holding device and covers a reference plane. The holding device comprises a support surface, a contact surface aligned perpendicularly thereto and a stop edge. The support surface and the contact surface extend perpendicularly to the reference plane and the stop edge extends perpendicularly to the support surface and in parallel to the reference plane and has a distance from the reference plane which is variable. The support surface is interrupted such that the projecting end face of the tool can be moved along the interruption. When provided at its machining position the lens rests on the support surface, contacts the contact surface and abuts with its edge against the stop edge.

Abstract: A grinding device includes a fixed barrel, a moving barrel, a grinding plate, and an actuator. The fixed barrel defines a chamber and includes a number of inner surfaces substantially parallel to a central axis, each of which defines a holding groove therein for holding a workpiece. The moving barrel is received in the chamber and includes a side surface substantially parallel to the central axis and defines an installation groove. The grinding plate is fixedly installed in the installation groove. The actuator is configured for driving the moving barrel to spin and move back and forth along the central axis, and driving the moving barrel to move towards a workpiece so that a surface of the workpiece is grinded into a desired arc surface by the grinding plate, and driving the moving barrel to move towards another workpiece after the desired arc surface of the workpiece is obtained.

Abstract: A cutter grinding device has a housing, a motor, a grinding wheel, a holding cap, multiple cutter holding brackets and a cutter clamping assembly. The holding cap is mounted on the housing, encloses the grinding wheel and has multiple holes formed on corresponding axis coinciding with different portions of the grinding wheel. The brackets are mounted respectively in the inserting holes in the holding cap and each has a working hole aligning with the corresponding hole in the holding cap and at least one pair of holding blocks. The holding blocks on the holding brackets have different heights to hold fins of a milling cutter at different positions and angles when inserted into the brackets. Accordingly, the milling cutter can be ground at different angles with the cutter grinding device conveniently and easily.

Abstract: It is to provide a saw chain sharpener such that while a saw chain is clamped at both ends by a holding plate, which is supported forward of a handy type electric motor, so as to stabilize its sharpening posture, a grinding tool such as a round rod-shaped grinding tool or a round rod-shaped grindstone, which is attached to an end of the electric motor, is rotated at a high speed so as to sharpen, at a side thereof, the saw chain efficiently. A support member is projected forward from a sharpener body which is formed such that a round shaft-shaped grinding tool for grinding is attached to an end of a handy type electric motor.

Abstract: A drill sharpener is provided which has a point-splitting port which simplifies the procedure for producing a split point on a drill bit undergoing sharpening. The point-splitting port is positioned relative to a grinding wheel assembly such that, when the drill held by a chuck is advanced toward the grinding wheel, a flute of the drill at the drill tip is brought into contact with the grinding wheel. The port has alignment stops therein which mate with flats provided on the barrel of the chuck to ensure proper alignment of the chuck and drill relative to the grinding wheel. The stops also limit the extent of inward travel of the chuck and drill to a predetermined distance. A debris or grit collection tube is also provided to be inserted into an unused port of the drill sharpener, to contain and confine any debris or grit attempting to exit the sharpener through the unused port.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for grinding convex running surfaces and exact outside diameters on undulated workpieces. In a clamping, a first convex running surface is ground on a discoid partial section of an undulated workpiece during a first grinding operation while using a first grinding wheel that comprises at least one concave lateral surface. A second grinding wheel is used to grind a desired outside diameter on the discoid partial section as well as on other partial sections of the undulated workpiece during a second grinding operation.

Abstract: A cup-shaped grindstone for grinding an end face of an annular portion of a work to form tooth grooves in the end face includes a grinding portion provided around an outer periphery of a disk portion. Abrasive grains of CBN are electrodeposited on each of first, second and third grinding faces of the grinding portion. Cooling-liquid ejecting bores are provided in a lower end of the first grinding face. To form the tooth grooves, the following steps are carried out: a rough-finish processing step cuts the tooth grooves by intermittently feeding the cup-shaped grindstone in a predetermined amount at a time, and a finish processing step of finishing the tooth grooves by retaining the cup-shaped grindstone at a predetermined position after the rough-finish processing step. During both steps, a cooling liquid is supplied from cooling-liquid ejecting bores defined in the first grinding faces of the cup-shaped grindstone.
