A core support system includes a support structure. The support structure includes a frame and a support member having a saturatable engagement layer disposed over the frame. A method of machining a core material includes applying a fluid to an engagement layer of a support structure and saturating the engagement layer with the fluid, disposing a core material on the engagement layer, causing the fluid to freeze to secure to the core material to the support structure, machining the core material, melting the frozen fluid to release the core material from the support structure, and removing the core material from the engagement layer.

A method of manufacturing a control cuff for a rotor blade of a hinge and bearingless rotor. The method comprises at least the steps of: manufacturing an outer shell, manufacturing a stiffener member by means of an automated process, inserting the stiffener member into the outer shell, and bonding the stiffener member to the outer shell.

A method for manufacturing a cylinder head includes: preparing a cylinder head casting having an intake passage, an exhaust passage, and a combustion chamber by casting using a mold and a plurality of cores; machining an intake port, an intake valve seat, an intake valve guide bore, an exhaust port, an exhaust valve seat, and an exhaust valve guide bore in the cylinder head casting by a first cylindrical tool; and forming a tapered surface on a portion of edge of the intake port by a second cylindrical tool. In particular, the second cylindrical tool moves along a predetermined trajectory at the edge portion of the intake port and rotates around an axis simultaneously to machine the tapered surface.

In a method of setting heat-resistant alloy cutting conditions used to set cutting conditions under which a heat-resistant alloy is cut with a cutting tool, the cutting tool has a long shaft mounted on a spindle and extended in the axial direction and teeth formed on the shaft. The cutting conditions include a radial direction cutting amount of the cutting tool in the radial direction. When the radial direction cutting amount in which one tooth is constantly in contact with the heat-resistant alloy is given as a smallest radial direction cutting amount and the radial direction cutting amount in which three or more teeth are not in contact with the heat-resistant alloy is given as a largest radial direction cutting amount, a radial direction cutting amount of the cutting tool is set in the range from the smallest radial direction cutting amount to the largest radial direction cutting amount.

Described herein is a method for manufacturing thin metal sheets and joints by removing material from a single block of material, i.e. for obtaining items including one or more thin sheets and/or thin elastic joints seamlessly connected to one another by means such as milling. The method can be employed in the manufacturing of a high-sensitivity, low-frequency, broadband monolithic mechanical sensor for measuring linear and angular displacements of based on a folded pendulum configuration for monitoring and control applications.

A cooling block for cooling a heat-generating electronic component includes a body having a thermal transfer surface and defining a fluid conduit for circulating a cooling fluid therein. The fluid conduit has a passage extending from a first point to a second point along a longitudinal direction. The passage is defined in part by first and second internal sidewalls, each having a scalloped or undulating shape. A width of the passage is measured between the internal sidewalls in a lateral direction. The passage is defined in part by a pin row disposed between the internal sidewalls, the pin row including multiple pins. The pins of the pin row are spaced apart along the longitudinal direction and are aligned with each other in the lateral direction such that a linear pin axis extending in the longitudinal direction traverses each pin. A method for manufacturing a cooling block is also disclosed.

A method of manufacturing a metallic rotor of an eccentric screw pump, comprising clamping a workpiece extending along a central longitudinal axis in a workpiece clamping device and removing material from the workpiece by cutting with a cutting tool. The invention further comprises not producing the surface of the rotor in a three-axis whirling process, using the cutting tool to produce the outer surface geometry of the rotor, advancing the cutting tool along an axis of advance that is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rotor, and rotating the cutting tool about an axis of tool rotation that is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rotor.

A core support system includes a support structure. The support structure includes a frame and a support member having a saturatable engagement layer disposed over the frame. A method of machining a core material incudes applying a fluid to an engagement layer of a support structure and saturating the engagement layer with the fluid, disposing a core material on the engagement layer, causing the fluid to freeze to secure to the core material to the support structure, machining the core material, melting the frozen fluid to release the core material from the support structure, and removing the core material from the engagement layer.

Various components of an electronic device housing and methods for their assembly are disclosed. The housing can be formed by assembling and connecting two or more different sections together. The sections of the housing may be coupled together using one or more coupling members. The coupling members may be formed using a two-shot molding process in which the first shot forms a structural portion of the coupling members, and the second shot forms cosmetic portions of the coupling members.

In one embodiment, a holder includes a body part elongated from a first end part to a second end part along a rotation axis. The body part includes a first member, a second member, and a third member. The first member is located on a side of the first end part, and includes a pocket to receive a cutting insert. The second member is located closer to the second end part than the first member, and includes at least one cavity inside the second member. The third member is located closer to the second end part than the second member.
