Methods are provided for shaping, maintaining the shape of, and cleaning a probe tip using a pad such as a multi-layer adhesive and abrasive pad. The multi-layer adhesive and abrasive pad may be formed from layers of adhesive material having abrasive particles in-between each layer. Using the pad, probe tips may be shaped as desired from an unfinished probe stock, substantially limiting the use of relatively expensive conventional machining operations. Further, the pad may also be used to maintain probe tips in a desired operating shape. Still further, the pad may be used to clean accumulated debris from the probe tip. Preferably, the maintenance and cleaning operations are performed on-line, with the probes operatively installed in connection with testing machinery.

An apparatus (46) for reconditioning a protective surface (30) of an optically-read digital recording disc (20) includes a turntable (48) configured to receive a center hole (24) of the disc (20) and a first motor (52), coupled to the turntable (48), for rotating the turntable (48) and the disc (20) at a first rotational speed. The apparatus further includes a buffing element (50) for removing an amount of material from the protective surface (30) as the turntable rotates the disc (20) and a second motor (54), coupled to the buffing element (50) for rotating the buffing element (50) at a second rotational speed. A timing element (56) synchronizes the first and second motors (52, 54) to substantially simultaneously cease rotation of the turntable (48) and the buffing element (50) following removal of an amount of material from the disc (20). The buffing element (50) includes a substantially rigid stabilizer plate (92) and a foam pad (88, 90) fixedly engaged with a plate surface (96) of the stabilizer plate (92). A buffing pad (82) is in fixed relation with the foam pad (88, 90). The buffing pad has a first surface (102) configured to face the foam pad (88, 90) and a second surface (104) configured to recondition the protective surface (30) of the disc (20).

A probe polish burnishing assembly has a stem having a substantially spherical surface. This spherical surface makes intimate contact with the concave surfaces commonly present at the tips of set screws used to align the assembly, decreasing the likelihood of slippage and chipping of the stem. Alignment of the assembly is thus made more precise, and the useful life of the assembly is improved. Furthermore, the likelihood of damage to the probe during burnishing is lessened.

An apparatus, consisting of a movable casing connected to a drive mechanism. A chamber is arranged in the movable casing and filled with working medium. The movable casing has a diaphragm connected with a mechanism for backward and forward movement. The movable casing is horizontal and the diaphragm, of which there is at least one, is mounted in the chamber of the movable casing on a sliding coupling. The working medium is a mixture of spheres and working fluid, and the movable casing is connected with a working fluid source.

摘要:
During fabrication of components for optical devices, chamfers (or radii) are formed at the edges of the surfaces of the components that are to be subjected to a friction process, such as lapping. After the chamfers are formed, the component is plated, with the plating following the contour of the chamfers. Material is then removed from the surface using a friction process. Because the plating follows the contour of the chamfer, it forms an angle to the lapping stone or wheel used during lapping, where the angle of the plating to the lapping stone is approximately the same as the angle of the chamfer. By providing a chamfer of between about 30 and 60 degrees, and most preferably about 45 degrees, the formation of plating slivers at the edges of the surface during lapping can be significantly reduced, and the occurrence of optical device failures resulting from unwanted particles, such as plating slivers, in cavities within the optical devices is also reduced.

An apparatus (46) for reconditioning a protective surface (30) of an optically-read digital recording disc (20) includes a turntable (48) configured to receive the disc (20) and a first motor (52) for rotating the turntable (48) and the disc (20). The apparatus further includes a buffing element (122) and a second motor (54) for rotating the buffing element (122). A timing element (56) synchronizes the first and second motors (52, 54) to substantially simultaneously cease rotation of the turntable (48) and the buffing element (122) following removal of an amount of material from the disc (20). The buffing element (122) includes a foam pad (124) having a discoid portion (126) and an annular portion (128) encircling a perimeter (132) of the discoid portion (126). The annular portion (128) is more resistant to compression than the discoid portion (126). A buffing pad (82) is in fixed relation with the foam pad (124). The discoid portion (126) and the annular portion (128) are configured to cause the buffing pad (82) to impart a substantially uniform buffing force against the protective surface (30) of the disc (20) to uniformly recondition the protective surface (30).
