The present invention provides an image engraving apparatus capable of precisely driving a stylus to improve accuracy of image engraving. The image engraving apparatus has a vibration actuator fixed to a floating base and having an output portion configured to output vibration generated by deformation of piezoelectric elements, a stylus supported with a stylus holder to be vibrated and engrave an image on a medium to be engraved, a supporting spring supporting the stylus holder, and a retainer positionally adjustably supported to the floating base to come into contact with the medium.

An engraving device includes a material processing platform disposed on a base frame and including suction holes and a pneumatic joint communicating with the suction holes; a gantry bracket disposed across both sides of the base frame; a spindle motor disposed on the gantry bracket; a processing bit operatively connected to the spindle motor; a dust collector disposed on the processing bit; and a driving mechanism operatively connected to the spindle motor and configured to move along the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis.

Devices, kits, and methods for making a carved crayon are provided. In one aspect, a crayon carving device includes a base, a pantograph armature coupled to the base, a crayon positioner, and at least one guide template parallel to the crayon positioner. The pantograph armature includes a motorized drive shaft with a drill tip for carving an outside surface of a crayon body, as well as a guide tip for tracing along a guide template that directs where the drill tip carves. In some embodiments, the guide template includes a stationary bridge support and a plurality of removable carving bucks that insert into one of multiple openings on the bridge support. The surface features of each of the carving bucks may be traced by the guide tip to generate a corresponding carving on the surface of a crayon body.

An engraving machine is disclosed. The engraving machine may have a housing and an engraver located within the housing. The engraving machine may have a slot disposed on the housing for receiving a cartridge including an offboard item to be engraved. The engraving machine may have an onboard storage configured to store a plurality of tags. The engraving machine may have a carrier for receiving the cartridge through the slot and for positioning the cartridge relative to the engraver. The engraving machine may have a pick mechanism for selectively retrieving a tag from the tags stored in the onboard storage and for positioning the tag relative to the engraver. The engraver may engrave the offboard item or the tag based on a user selection.

A disposable multi-edge carving blade contains a first end and a second end which are symmetrical to each other and are connected together so as to form a V-shaped end portion of the carving blade, wherein the first end of the carving blade has a first side face defined thereon, and the second end of the carving blade has a second side face formed thereon, the carving blade also includes two chip removing grooves correspondingly arranged beside a distal end of the V-shaped end portion thereof, and each chip removing groove has a cutting face defined on a bottom end thereof and intersecting with a rotation axis of the carving blade so that at least two cutting edges are oppositely defined beside the rotation axis.

The present invention relates to a positioning device for rotatably and rectilinearly positioning a card with respect to a treatment unit having an axis of treatment. The positioning device comprises a card holder for holding a card in a fixed position, wherein the card holder defines a virtual card surface plane coincident with the surface of a card facing the treatment unit once the card is placed in the card holder, and wherein the card holder defines a virtual card center point coincident with the intersection point of the axis of treatment and the virtual card surface plane. The positioning device further comprises a manipulator to which the card holder is attached, wherein the manipulator comprises: a cardanic element with a first axis of rotation and a second axis of rotation; and a virtual pivot point being the intersection of the first and the second axis of rotation.

A ring holder system comprising a ring holder base with a body that can be oriented horizontally and vertically on a flat work surface. The base includes a single mandrel extending from a front end face of the base, angled upper tool mounting surfaces circumferentially offset from a top surface of the base, and a flat rear end face for resting the base in a vertical work orientation on a flat surface. A horizontal tool adapter mount is configured to be removably mounted on one of the angled upper tool mounting surfaces, and a vertical tool adapter is configured to be mounted on the bottom surface of the base in the vertical work orientation. The mandrel includes a threaded mounting ring at an inner end of the mandrel adjacent the front end face of the base for mounting accessories such as vises and pitch cups rotatably on the mandrel in the vertical work orientation.

A groove engraving device and a groove engraving method are provided. The groove engraving device includes: a processing chamber for containing a piece to be processed, a cutter for groove engraving on the piece to be processed, a clamping mechanism for clamping the piece to be processed, a driving mechanism for driving the clamping mechanism to rotate, and a temperature controlling device for controlling a temperature inside the processing chamber to be within a preset temperature range. The clamping mechanism and the cutter are disposed inside the processing chamber, and the clamping mechanism is rotatable with respect to the processing chamber. The temperature controlling device is disposed inside the processing chamber. The groove engraving device can improve the processing efficiency and quality of the groove engraving on the piece to be processed.

A marking machine having a marking head provided with a percussion tool configured to alter at least partly a surface of an object to be marked, a movement device/component/unit/apparatus or the like configured to move said percussion tool along a direction of percussion, and a heating assembly configured to heat said percussion tool.
