Title: Method and apparatus for moulding an article in elastomeric material
Inventor: HOGAN JAMES MAHLON
IPC: B29C67/24
Filed: 1980-11-10
Granted: 1983-06-16
Abstract: A tire is cast and cured in a stationary mold having an annular mold cavity, an inlet opening and an outlet vent. The mold is tilted for optimum foam flow and minimum air or bubble entrapment. A liquid reactive mixture is injected into the mold through the inlet opening and moves through the mold cavity in different directions providing two leading surfaces which meet to form an interface adjacent the outlet vent. The air, foam gases and interface portion are extruded from the mold cavity through a slot in the vent into a reservoir. After curing of the elastomeric material formed by the liquid reactive mixture in the mold, the material in the slot and reservoir may be severed from the tire.

Title: Apparatus for drilling a curved bore
Inventor: ROMANO JACK W
IPC: B23B45/04
Filed: 1994-05-05
Granted: 1998-02-12
Abstract: A method and apparatus for drilling a curved bore are disclosed, wherein the apparatus includes a handle (20) and a removable cartridge (174) in which cutting bits (240) are disposed to produce the bore. The handle includes a trigger (66), (66'), or (66''), which the user squeezes toward a grip (24) of the handle to both energize a pneumatic motor (42) and to advance the opposed cutting bits in curved arcs at different rates. As the trigger is squeezed, a curved guide arm (234) conveying one of the cutting bits is advanced more rapidly than the other curved guide arm, passing a median point in the bore and then being withdrawn as the other curved guide arm and cutting bit are advanced past the median point. Thus, interference between the two cutting bits is avoided and a clean bore hole is produced. In addition, the removable cartridge minimizes breakage of a flexible drive cable (238) used to transmit rotational force to the cutting bits from rotating left and right extended drive shafts (190 and  192). A straight segment (236) of each curved guide arm is provided adjacent the point where the cutting bit connects to the flexible drive cable, to substantially eliminate stress on the flexible drive cable at that point. Instead, the stress is shifted to a portion of the flexible shaft where its flexibility is greater. A push-button release (122) is provided on a barrel (26') of the handle to facilitate release of retainer pins (106') that engage push bars in the removable cartridge so that the removable cartridge can more easily be disengaged from the barrel.

Granted: 1993-09-23
Abstract: A drill bit for use in drilling a well bore comprises a main drill body (10) adapted to be rotated about a substantially vertically disposed axis of rotation (20) and having therein a duct extending longitudinally along such axis, for supplying a drill fluid under pressure to the well bore. At least one generally circular, rotatable cutting discs (34, 36, 38) are mounted on the outside of the main drill body (10) at equally spaced locations, with the cutting discs each having cutting elements (35, 37, 39) disposed in a ring-shaped array. Each of the cutting disc (34, 36, 38) has an axis of rotation disposed at an acute angle to the vertical centerline about which the main drill body rotates. The axis of rotation of each cutting disc (34, 36, 38) is slightly offset laterally in a rearward direction from the centerline (20) of the main drill body (10), thus to cause the entire bit to be placed in a non-equilibrium position with the rotation of the main body enabling the cutting disc (34, 36, 38) to be positioned to be particularly effective and aggressive in cutting the well bore. <IMAGE>

Title: Numerically controlled machine tool with tool advancing control - has a speed transmitter whose output signal is fed to a monitoring circuit
IPC: B23B39/08
Filed: 1968-10-05
Abstract: The output signal of the transmitter represents the momentary advancing speed of the tool and/or the workpiece. Should the monitoring circuit detect a decrease in speed by a certain amount then a control signal is generated which brings about a corresp. reduction in the speed of advance. The momentary speed of advance is represented through the voltage level of a direct potential signal supplied to a level supervisory circuit. Until a precise determinable min. speed is attained during the start of the advancing drive, the level supervisory circuit is inoperative. The control unit can be applied to any machine tool independently of the kind and direction of advance.
