A puncture needle includes a needle tube 1 provided with a spiral groove 3 and wall surfaces 3a and 3b of the spiral groove 3 serve as a surface for reflecting ultrasonic waves. The spiral groove is formed on the peripheral surface of the needle tube such that a grinding stone 2 is brought into contact with the peripheral surface of the needle tube while the needle tube 1 is being moved in its axial direction and rotated. The wall surfaces of the spiral groove formed on the needle tube serve as a reflection surface to change the orientation of the reflection surface in the axial direction of the needle tube according to change in position of the spiral. Therefore, even if a direction in which an ultrasonic wave is applied to the puncture needle is fixed, any portion of the reflection surface changing in orientation can become a surface for reflecting well ultrasonic waves, so that good ultrasonic waves can be obtained. The slant angles of the reflection surfaces in the axial direction of the needle tube can be changed by adjusting the moving speed in the axial direction of the needle tube or the rotation speed.

A method for producing a groove pattern on a cylinder surface includes providing an abrasive module, including an abrasive mesh article and collector block, providing a patterning head, which including the abrasive module and pressing actuator, pressing the abrasive module against the cylinder surface by using the actuator, forming a plurality of grooves on the cylinder surface by causing relative motion between the abrasive module and cylinder surface, and drawing gas through the abrasive mesh article to collect particles released from the cylinder surface. The abrasive mesh article includes a plurality of abrasive grains bonded to a flexible mesh backing, defining openings. The collector block has a curved supporting surface defining openings. The abrasive mesh article is attached to the curved supporting surface by a releasable fastening system. The openings of the flexible mesh backing are in communication with the openings of the collector block via the releasable fastening system.

The present invention provides a method for micro-grinding tip-accurately induced brittle fracture forming of a curved mirror surface. The method includes the steps of: grinding a surface of an optical glass material by means of a V-shaped tip of a diamond grinding wheel to form a V-shaped microgroove having a groove micro-tip; setting two supporting points with a distance of L therebetween on one side of the optical glass material where the microgroove is machined, providing a loading pressing head having a horizontal deviation distance of l between a loading point and the groove micro-tip on the other side of the optical glass material, and allowing the loading pressing head to perpendicularly apply a loading force F onto the optical glass material with a loading speed of v, and forming a penetrated smooth curved mirror surface within 0.3 millisecond via the loading point of the loading force F and under induction of the groove micro-tip.
