Abstract: A sanding machine (10) for sanding the surfaces of work pieces placed upon a
conveyor (60) that transports the work pieces along a first direction towards and
beneath a sanding head (20). The sanding head (20) comprises a sanding belt (32)
entrained around an upper tension roller (22) and a lower contact roller (24). The
tension roller (22) and contact roller (24) are provided with a single translational orbital
movement by a pair of eccentric shafts (38A,38B) operatively connected thereto and
rotatably driven by an operatively connected motor (50). At least one of the upper
tension roller (22) and lower contact roller (24) is also driven by an operatively
connected motor (44) so as to provide the endless rotation of the sanding belt (32)
around the upper tension roller (22) and lower contact roller (24). In this fashion, the
sanding belt (32) is provided with two contemporaneous superimposed movements
consisting of rotational movement about the tension roller (22) and contact roller (24)
and a single orbital translational movement imparted by the rotating pair of
eccentric shafts (38A,38B). 
     The resulting sanding pattern is homogeneous and renders scratches
normally created by the endlessly rotating sanding belt substantially
unnoticeable.

Abstract: A stepless ratchet one way clutch mechanism, which provides an improved ratchet tool, is disclosed. A drive head (30) is rotatably fitted into a cylindrical recess (18) in a wrench housing. The drive head (30) includes a partially triangular shape with three flat sides equally spaced around its circumference. A latch (20) is positioned between each flat side and the internal wall of the recess (18). A selector mechanism (40) provides a rotational bias to the three latches (20) about the rotational axis of the drive head (30). The drive head (30) may rotate in the wrench in the same direction that the selector (40) is turned. The drive head (30) is prevented from rotating in the opposite direction by wedging the latches (20) between the drive head (30) and the cylindrical internal wall of the recess (18). The selector (40) bias may be switched either way. When the bias is switched, the latches (20) rotate slightly about the drive head (30) and corners of the drive head (30) contact spaced apart segments of each latch (20). The selector bias originates within a recess (38) of the drive head (30) while a thin disk (51) links the bias to the latches (20). A flange (34) of the drive head (30) securely holds the drive head in position and prevents wobble of the drive head. A friction surface is at the latch and internal wall interface. The friction surface may include a "V" groove (11) and rib (26), a hard, textured surface, or very fine teeth and splines.
