An engine includes a cylinder block including a cylinder hole, a crank shaft as an offset crank, and a connecting rod that connects the piston and the crank shaft. An inclined surface is provided on an entire circumference of a crank-shaft-side opening edge of one end of the cylinder hole. When viewed in the axial direction of the crank shaft, a boundary line between the inclined surface and the cylinder hole extends towards the other end of the cylinder hole as it extends toward an offset side on which the crank shaft is offset from the center axis of the cylinder hole. The offset crank engine has the entire circumference of the crank-shaft-side opening edge of the cylinder hole chamfered without any bad influence on the sliding surface and posture of the piston to avoid interference between the crank-shaft-side opening edge of the cylinder hole and the connecting rod.

A method for reloading a single-flute drill comprising a shaft made of a hard metal and a drill head that is connected to the shaft and is made of a hard metal, is characterized by the following steps: removing a worn drill head from the shaft; integrally bonding a new drill head to the shaft.

A drill jig apparatus configured to be coupled to a locomotive bedplate is presented. The apparatus can include a first member and a second member. The first member can be configured to attach a drill to provide stability while drilling, and the second member can be operably coupled to a locomotive, such as to an engine and bedplate of a locomotive. An engine dowel drilling system is also presented, which can include a drill jig member and a bushing member, and the members can be operably coupled with one another. A method of drilling holes in a locomotive bedplate can include using a drill jig and a bushing to facilitate drilling, and the drill jig can be a conductor-side jig or an engineer-side jig. A kit is also presented for engine dowel installation that can standardize dowels and dowel holes.

The invention involves the extraction process of a glow plug pencil (23) or a broken pencil (23) which is stuck in a cylinder head (13) housing (11) of a glow plug engine comprising a lower (19) and upper (17) part, so that the upper part (17) forms a shoulder (21) with the lower part (19), the pencil (23) being stuck in the lower part (19). The process is remarkable in that it includes a step (a) for drilling a bore in the pencil (23) according to the longitudinal direction of the latter which is performed with the use of a drill bit (1) comprising a drilling part (5) with flutes (7) and a shank (3) respectively having a diameter smaller and greater than the lower part diameter (19) of the housing (11) so that the shank (3) forms a shoulder (9) with the drilling part (5), and in that step a) for drilling the bore includes the drilling of the pencil (23) until the said shoulder (9) of the drill bit (1) is positioned to a stop against the shoulder (21) of the housing (11).

A fluid passage device including a passage for flowing high-pressure fluid of a predetermined or higher pressure comprises a sac bore cylinder of a metal, which includes therein a closed passage and a branch passage. The closed passage is shaped to extend straightly in a predetermined direction and has a closed top end, and the branch passage is branched off from the closed passage. A top end part of the closed passage at a closed side is defined by a ceiling wall surface, which is perpendicular to the predetermined direction, a passage wall surface, which is parallel to the predetermined direction, and a connecting wall surface, which connects the ceiling wall surface and the passage wall surface. The connecting wall surface is shaped to curve in a direction to expand the closed passage.

A machining apparatus capable of drilling a long workpiece from an end surface of a diameter-expanded part and drilling a short workpiece from an end surface of a stem part without inverting orientation of a collet and a sleeve in a chuck device is provided, as well as a method of using the same, and a chuck device for the machining apparatus. A deep hole drilling machine and a chuck device are included with a sleeve and a collet included inside the chuck device, and the collet and the sleeve each have both end openings opened toward the outside of the chuck device. The opening on one end side of each of the sleeve and the collet is directed to the deep hole drilling machine, and the collet is disposed on the other end side of the sleeve.

A device for detaching a burr from an opening of a transverse borehole of a workpiece includes an elongate shank for positioning in a longitudinal borehole of the workpiece and a fillet to avoid the elongate shank colliding with a drill for drilling the transverse borehole. In an example embodiment, the device has an aperture to further avoid the elongate shank colliding with the drill. In an example embodiment, the elongate shank has a cutting section with a cutting edge for detaching the burr from the opening of the transverse borehole.

The present invention relates to a method and a tool for removing a partial region of a coating from a substrate, in which the partial region to be removed is removed by a machining process in such a way that an undercutting of the partial region of the coating that is to be removed takes place. For the undercutting of the partial region of the coating that is to be removed, at least one machining tool that is rotating relative to the substrate about an axis of rotation is moved relative to the substrate along a direction of advancement that runs parallel to a surface having the coating, wherein a layer of the substrate that is directly adjacent to the coating is also removed together with the coating. Considered in the direction of advancement, the tool thereby penetrates deeper into the substrate than into the coating to be removed.
