Abstract:
A transfer object comprises a substrate having one or more fine concave portions formed on a surface thereof. At least one of a sidewall and a bottom of each fine concave portion has an oscillation waveform satisfying at least one of the following oscillation waveform conditions: the oscillation waveform is continuous; the oscillation waveform is a composite waveform of a plurality of oscillation waveforms, and the plurality of oscillation waveforms are in phase with each other; fine concave portions of a plurality of rows are formed on the substrate, and oscillation waveforms of adjacent fine concave portions are in phase with each other; and fine concave portions of a plurality of rows are formed on the substrate, and oscillation waveforms of the fine concave portions are in phase with each other for every two pitches.
Abstract:
An eccentric-shape machining apparatus as well as an eccentric-shape machining method are provided which can efficiently and accurately bore, contour or thread a workpiece about any position other than the rotational center of the workpiece. The workpiece is rotatably driven while controlling the rotational phase of the workpiece. A rotating tool spindle adapted to mount a cutting tool is rotatably driven while controlling the rotational phase of the rotating tool spindle. The rotating tool spindle is mounted on a cutting head which is controllably fed and positioned in Z-axis extending parallel to X-axis perpendicular to the axis of the rotating tool spindle. During one complete revolution of the workpiece, the rotational phases of the main spindle and rotating tool spindle and the movement of the cutting head in the X-axis direction are simultaneously controlled such that the cutting tool is brought into contact with the inner and outer peripheries of the workpiece by a given depth of cut. At the same time, the movement of the cutting head in the Z-axis direction is controlled. As well as the work rotation mode described above, the work oscillation mode can be carried out.
Abstract:
This invention provides a device for employing a motorized hand tool, such as a portable router and the like, to cut a spiralled groove in a workpiece, such as a leg for a table, chair, and the like. Basically, the device comprises: frame means including end block means rotatably journalling chuck means for holding the workpiece for rotation around an axis and guide means interconnected to the end block means for guiding the motorized hand tool for movement with respect thereto in a direction generally parallel to the axis; and drive means mounted on the frame means and being interconnectable between the motorized hand tool and the chuck means to cause movement of the motorized hand tool in a direction generally parallel to the axis in response to rotary movement of the workpiece around the axis.
Abstract:
A constant rake planar cutting edge fluted drill bit and a method of manufacturing the same. The drill bit includes a planar cutting face formed at the tip end of the bit by a motion of a rotating machining wheel respective to a stationary blank in a first step. Once the cutting face is formed, the blank is rotated and translated in a direction parallel to an elongated axis, during which the rotating machining wheel creates a flute. Upon completion of the first flute, the bit is rotated accordingly and the processes are repeated to create each subsequent planar cutting face and respective flute. The process can also be completed in a slightly modified version of a reverse process, fabricating a flute prior to formation of the planar cutting face of the bit.
