Номер: US20120012632A1
Принадлежит: Mitsuboshi Diamond Industrial Co Ltd

A cutter with which a diagonal crack can be created without fail deeply within a brittle material substrate is provided. The cutter has such a form that two cones or truncated cones are joined through the same bottom so as to share the same rotational axis, and the circumference of the above described bottom is used as the blade edge ridge line. In addition, grooves that incline at a predetermined angle relative to the direction of the rotational axis are created around this blade edge ridge line at predetermined intervals. Furthermore, the angles between the sides of the above described two cones or truncated cones and the above described bottom are different from each other.

Front feet are provided at a lower part of a cutting-machine main body via a foot holder. Furthermore, a slider positioned on a front side relative to the front feet is provided at the lower part. When a workpiece to be cut is to be cut by a blade, the cutting-machine main body is tilted so as to let the blade go down. When the cutting-machine main body is tilted, a state where the front feet are in contact with the workpiece is switched to a state where the slider is in contact with the workpiece. Then, by moving the cutting-machine main body forward while sliding the slider on the workpiece, the workpiece is cut by the blade. In the cutting operation, the front feet can get away from the workpiece. Therefore, damage of the front feet can be prevented, and the running cost can be suppressed.

The present invention relates to a blade for a cutting tool of a ceramic cutting machine that improves the stability and quality of the cut made on ceramic tiles by means of said cutting machines, due to its specific geometric features. Said cutting tools of ceramic cutting machines are commonly known as “scoring wheels” and the blade they comprise is commonly known as “scoring blade”.The invention is applicable to the field of the metal tool manufacturing industry and the handling ceramic material industry.Current ceramic cutting machines that are manually operated typically comprise a bench where the tile or ceramic piece to be cut is placed, a positioning element of said tile in the bench, and a sliding lever that slides on rails, having a tool carrier element in which a cutting tool (or “scoring wheel”) is inserted, which is in turn formed by a handle and a disc-shaped blade (or “scoring blade”). By means of the pressure exerted by the lever, a certain pressure is exerted by the scoring wheel on the tile to be cut. While exerting said pressure, and by advancing the lever with its tool carrier along the rails, a cut is progressively made on the tile.In ...

The present invention relates to a method for the production of at least one three-dimensional layer of solid material, in particular for usage as wafer, and/or at least one tree-dimensional solid body. The inventive method preferably comprises the following steps: 16.-. (canceled)7. A method for the production of at least one three-dimensional layer of solid material for usage as wafer and/or at least one three-dimensional solid body , the method comprising:providing a work piece for removing of layers of solid material and/or the solid body, wherein the work piece includes a first level surface portion and a second level surface portion, wherein the first level surface portion aligns substantially or exactly parallel to the second level surface portion;wherein the work piece includes at least one exposed surface formed by the second level surface portion;generating defects inside the work piece with laser beams of a laser, wherein the laser beams penetrate into the solid body through the second level surface portion;wherein the defects define at least one crack directing layer;wherein the crack directing layer describes at least one three-dimensional contour; andattaching or generating a receiving layer at the exposed surface of the work piece by forming a composite structure;thermal treating of the receiving layer to generate stresses inside the work piece, wherein the stresses cause a crack propagation inside the work piece; andwherein a layer of solid material or a three-dimensional solid body is separated along the crack directing layer due to the crack propagation, wherein a surface of the layer of solid material or a surface of the solid body corresponds to the three-dimensional contour of the crack directing layer.8. The method of wherein a shape of the crack directing layer has at least sectionally a contour of a pre-defined three-dimensional object claim 7 , which results from a mathematically definable form body.9. The method of wherein the ...
