An attachment for a drill comprises a shank with a chuck configured to mount the attachment to the drill. A housing on the shank comprises a threaded end and a hollow chamber. A compression bladder having a tubular opening through it is configured to be inserted into the hollow chamber. A tube comprising a sanding or cleaning surface located on the inner surface of the tube is configured to be insertable into the tubular opening of the compression bladder. A threaded lid having a circular opening that is at least the same diameter as the inner diameter of the tube is configured to mount onto the housing at the threaded end and compress the compression bladder thereby reducing the diameter of the tubular opening and compressing the compression bladder against the tube to secure the tube within the housing.

A tire grinding machine includes a frame having a plurality of vertically extending posts. A chuck assembly is associated with the frame and adapted to receive and rotate a tire. A grinding assembly is associated with the frame and is movable with respect to the frame. The grinding assembly has at least one grinding element adapted to contact and remove material from the tire when rotated by the chuck assembly. A counterbalance assembly which has a cable with one end connected to a counterbalance weight and an opposite end connected to the grinding assembly is included. A block assembly may be coupled to the grinding assembly to allow pivotable movement thereof. A calibration adapter may be used to ensure proper positioning of the grinding elements, wherein a level adjuster may be used for this purpose.

A method for manufacturing a wire saw apparatus including a wire supply reel; a long roller; wire guides; a wire winding reel; and a tension arm controlled to move within a control angle of ±A (°) set in advance and configured to apply tension to the wire, the method including the steps of: measuring a surface roughness Rmax of the long roller; measuring an angle a (°) of the tension arm at which the tension arm swings outside a range of the control angle set in advance while the wire is extending from the wire supply reel; calculating R1×2×A÷(|a|+A)=R2, where R1 (μm) represents the measured surface roughness Rmax of the long roller; and adjusting the surface roughness Rmax of the long roller to the calculated numerical value R2 or less. The method for manufacturing a wire saw apparatus can prevent the tension arm from greatly swinging outside the control range.

The pressing device (14) is disposed more inwardly than the workpiece holder (11) in a radial direction of the polishing table (3).

A shaft deburring device includes a tubular metallic shaft having a drill mount at a first end and a deburring collar at a second end. The deburring collar has a plurality of radially disposed grinding balls secured about an interior surface of the collar. An exterior surface of the deburring collar has a plurality of radially disposed bristles.

Disclosed is a grinding disk kit for finishing rolling surfaces of bearing rollers, including a pair of coaxial first and second grinding disks; a front face of the first grinding disk includes a group of radially distributed linear grooves and transition faces for connecting the adjacent linear grooves; a front face of the second grinding disk includes one or more helical grooves and transition faces for connecting adjacent helical grooves; one bearing roller to be machined is distributed in each linear groove corresponding to each intersection of the helical grooves and the linear grooves during grinding machining; the rolling surfaces of the bearing rollers to be machined are respectively in contact with working faces of the linear grooves and the helical grooves corresponding to each intersection; and the bearing rollers to be machined translate along the linear grooves while rotating about the own axes under the friction.

A tool for shaping an abradable liner of a turbofan engine is disclosed. The turbofan engine includes a shaft to support a fan rotatable about a rotation axis. The abradable liner is configured to surround the fan and has an axial length in the direction of the rotation axis. The tool includes a support configured to be mounted to the shaft and rotatable about the rotation axis.
