摘要:
A method of cutting non-metallic materials, specifically glass, resides in the heating of the material by an incident beam of radiation being effected to a temperature short of its softening point, with the rate of relative displacement of the beam and of the material, and the region of the heated zone which is locally cooled being selected to form a blind crack in the material. The method provides for increasing substantially the cutting speed and accuracy, and also for controlling the depth, shape and angle of the cut face formed by the crack. The method can be employed in the automotive industry for making glass windows and mirrors, in the electronics industry for making precision backings and substrates for LED indicator panels and masks, magnetic and optomagnetic disks, in watch-making for making protective glasses, in the aircraft and space industry for making structural optics components, in construction and architecture for dimensional pattern-cutting of glass, including its integration in the glass manufacturing technology, and also in other fields of production and technologies where precision of non-metallic materials are made.

To assure that a plate-shaped brittle material is exactly cut into two plate pieces, a jig having a thread-shaped projection secured thereto in conformity with a predetermined pattern positionally coincident with a cut groove formed in the plate-shaped brittle material, an elastic member located on the cut groove side of the plate-shaped brittle material, and a plate-shaped brittle material to be cut into two plate pieces are placed on a table of a press machine one above another, and subsequently, a predetermined intensity of pressing power is applied to the jig from above by operating a pressing machine. Alternatively, a jig having a thread-shaped projection secured thereto, an elastic member located on the opposite side relative to the cut groove side of the plate-shaped brittle material, and a plate-shaped brittle material to be cut into two plate pieces may be placed on the press table one above another. Otherwise, a pair of jigs each having a thread-shaped projection secured thereto, a pair of elastic members one of which is located on the cut groove side of a plate-shaped brittle material and other one of which is located on the opposite side relative to the cue groove side of the plate-shaped brittle material, and a plate-shaped brittle material to be cut into two plate pieces may be placed on the press table one above another.

A dispenser for cutting and feeding a web of flexible sheet material is described in which a feed roller carries a web cutting blade and a spring connected to an eccentric crank affixed to the feed roll. While initial movement of the web through the mechanism and actuation of the cutter to effect partial separation of the web material is produced by the user's pull on the web, such pull also loads the spring which, upon unloading, delivers the cut web material from the dispenser. The spring is designed to gradually arrest rotation of the feed roll and to be exhausted of stored energy at a predetermined position of the feed roll whereupon the uncut segments of web material are efficaciously severed and the leading end of the succeeding web material is automatically positioned where it can be readily grasped by a subsequent user.

A process and device for marking and cleaving plaquettes of monocrystalline semiconducting materials is described. According to invention, in order to mark off a reference direction onto a plaquette of a monocrystalline semiconducting material having a low hardness, an impression (1) is formed on the useful face of the plaquette and in a non useful area of that face, the impression bringing into view at least one direction from which the reference direction (9, 11, 13) is deduced, and the latter is marked off by means of a line on the non useful area. Since the reference direction corresponds to a cleavage plane of the plaquette, the latter, in addition, is cleaved by tracing a cleavage line along the reference direction on the other face of the plaquette.
摘要:
A feed mechanism for feeding a web of rolled flexible sheet material, such as soft paper towels, out of a dispenser. The mechanism includes a feed roller within the dispenser and a web cutting blade in the feed roller and projectable and retractable therewith as the feed roller rotates. A contoured cam is attached to an end of the feed roller, and a spring-loaded cam follower presses against the contoured cam. The cam follower, through the cam, controllably assists in the rotation of the feed roller during the feed roller cycle when the blade cuts the web and thereafter to feed a free end of the material to an accessible position outside of the dispenser. The needed maximum pull forces by the user on the material to cut and withdraw the material from the dispenser are thereby significantly minimized, and the likelihood of the soft towel material tearing off in the user's wet hands is accordingly reduced.

Apparatus for selecting and feeding web material (F1, F2, F3) from a plurality of supply bobbins (B1, B2, B3) of web material having different characteristics, comprising a selecting and dispensing device arranged on a slide (7) horizontally movable to and fro with respect to a feeder conveyor (T) which finally feeds the film to the packaging station (P) of the packaging machine. On the slide is mounted an indexing arrangement (13, 18) adapted to selectively bring into operative alignment with the feeding conveyor (T) one draw-and-guide unit (A1, A2, A3) which draws the selected film and delivers it to the feeding conveyor (T). The operative engagement between the draw-and-guide units (A1, A2, A3) is obtained by opening the feeding conveyor (T) which consist of a superposed belts conveyor (101, 201) and pinch rollers (R1, R2) and inserting therebetween the forward portion (118, 218, 318) of the draw-and-guide unit. The opening of the feeding conveyor is promoted by the movement of the draw-and-guide unit which carries a roller or opening pin (37) which acts on a shaped plate (3) carrying the upper run (101) of the belt conveyor. Upon engagement of the draw-and-guide unit (A1, A2, A3) with the feeding conveyor (T), there takes place also the operative engagement of a driving wheel (38) arranged on the feeding conveyor (T) with a driven wheel (31) arranged on the draw-and-guide unit, which transmits the drive to the draw wheels (21, 121-22, 122) of the draw-and-guide unit.

There is provided a laminated glass cutter. The cutter includes a rectangular body frame and a pair of opposed cutting members associated therewith. In use the laminated glass cutter may cut a laminated sheet into two adjacent separate components upon a single pass of the body over the sheet.
摘要:
An optical fiber is scored for severing by placing the fiber on a pad in contact with a surface of the pad and engaging the fiber with a scoring body having a rounded obtuse scoring surface in such manner as to urge said scoring surface into scoring contact with fiber and score the fiber without rotation of the fiber about its longitudinal axis relative to the scoring surface, whereby the scoring contact creates a local flaw in the fiber at which the fiber may be parted by stressing the fiber in tension. The scoring surface of the body is rounded to a curvature such that parting of the fiber at the flaw by stressing of the fiber in tension produces mirror smooth fiber end surfaces at the part. The scoring body may be a blade having a blunt edge providing the obtuse scoring surface or a filament such as an optical fiber positioned across the fiber between the pad and a second pad that are moved together to grip the fiber and simultaneously urge the filament into scoring contact with the fiber.

This invention relates to optical fiber cleaving tools where the optical fiber is held in a first clamping device, a portion of said fiber is passed through and elongated open which is coaxial with the long axis of said fiber, and through a second coaxial clamping device, which places said fiber in tension. A sharp pointed means is positioned between the exit of said elongated opening and said second clamping device, adjusted to score the circumferential periphery of said fiber. The tension on said fiber causes it to cleave in a mirror-surface plane which is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of said fiber. Herein, the cleaving tool of this invention produces mirror-surface ends, at least about 1.degree. of the desired 90.degree., and even essentially 90.degree.. In this invention the second clamping device is distinguished in that one clamping face is an arc of a defined circular circumference. Also this cleaving tool is unique in its capability of cleaving either buffered optical fiber or bare optical fiber, with the results as set out above.
