Publication number: 20100167630Abstract: An abrasive disc includes a backing layer on a first major surface, a water-impermeable abrasive layer on a second major surface, and a water-absorbable, compressible, resilient, porous foam layer sandwiched in between the backing layer and the abrasive layer. The disc further includes a plurality of perforations. The disc is used to abrade a surface. Fluid is absorbed into the abrasive disc. The fluid is then released to the surface by compressing the abrasive disc against the surface in an abrading motion. The fluid is allowed to mix with and absorb surface swarf; and compression on the abrasive disc is released, reabsorbing the fluid and trapping swarf inside the disc.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 14, 2009Publication date: July 1, 2010Inventors: Mervyn Chung-Fat, Biagio P. Pellegrino, Vivien Luttenschlager

Patent number: 7192338Abstract: A tool for co-operating with a fixing device wherein the tool comprises a tool body in the form of a circular disk, with a central opening and a radially inwardly facing locking surface. The fixing device comprises at least one radially outwardly facing projection of a locking element, which can be actuated manually and with which the fixing device can be releasably connected to the tool. In the locking position the at least one radially outwardly facing projection of the fixing device engages over the inwardly facing locking surface of the tool. The tool body is axially secured and held non-rotatably relative to the fixing device. The at least one radially outwardly facing projection of the fixing device and a support for the tool are arranged axially displaceably relative to each other, wherein the axial displacement travel is blockable by a centrifugal force device.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2002Date of Patent: March 20, 2007Assignee: Bruno Schmitz Schleifmittelwerk GmbHInventors: Manfred Kausch, Hans-Josef Kulmer, Torsten Sommer

Patent number: 6663479Abstract: A hand held tool using continuous sanding belts for sanding and smoothing flat surfaces with the additional capability to produce more uniformly rounded edges and corners of various work pieces. Its two piece construction comprises a flat base plate rotationally attached to the bottom side of a housing. The housing has along the length of its top side a deep channel into which a portion of a mounted sanding belt may be wedged, creating a concave sanding surface, that can then be used to produce more uniformly rounded edges and corners. The housing is made of a resilient, compressible material, while the base plate is of a rigid structure. The tool incorporates a way for placing and tensioning continuous sanding belts on it by simply swiveling the base plate that is attached to the bottom of the housing, which by such rotational positioning compresses the compressible material of the housing, or releases it, thus applying or releasing tension on a mounted belt.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2002Date of Patent: December 16, 2003Inventor: Robert Lee Sendelbeck
