HONING HEAD Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: machine engineering, namely means for surface hardening of parts at precisely working them. SUBSTANCE: honing head includes cylindrical body with lengthwise slits in which shoes of two groups of working members are alternatively arranged. Mechanism for unclamping first or second group of shoes is mounted along axis of cylindrical body. Working members of first group are in the form of grinding blocks; working members of second group are in the form of spherical indenters. Honing head is also provided with means for supplying onto worked surface cutting fluid with additive. After working of grinding blocks unclamping mechanism initiates operation of indenters for surface hardening of part and also for imparting antifriction properties to it. EFFECT: improved design. 3 dwg
