Assigned to Cincinnati Milacron, Inc. - Cincinnati, Hamilton County OH

Abstract: A first shield is disposed above a workpiece and adjacent thereto to protect the operator of a grinding machine during a grinding operation from any fragments of an exploding grinding wheel. During loading and unloading of the workpieces, the first shield is pivoted away from the grinding position of the workpiece, and a second shield is disposed between the workpiece and the grinding wheel to protect the operator during loading and unloading operations. The first shield has a coolant supplied thereto for cooling the grinding wheel; this coolant serves as an energy absorber if any fragment of an exploding grinding wheel strikes the first shield. Claim: In a grinding machine having: a base; a wheel slide supported on said base for translational movement relative to a workpiece to be ground, said slide having a grinding wheel and a guard substantially enclosing said grinding wheel supported thereby; means on said base to support the workpiece to be ground; means cooperating with said grinding wheel and disposed above the workpiece in a grinding position during grinding of the workpiece by said grinding wheel to prevent any fragments of said grinding wheel in the event of a failure of said grinding wheel from escaping from between the top of the workpiece and said guard; and means to move said cooperating means from the grinding position to a workpiece loading position toward said grinding wheel only when said grinding wheel is withdrawn from engagement with the workpiece by said slide for loading and unloading of workpieces.

Assigned to Cincinnati Milacron, Inc. - Cincinnati, Hamilton County OH

Abstract: A grinding wheel is moved to a reference position by a hydraulic piston, which carries a stepping motor therewith. The stepping motor advances the grinding wheel into the workpiece at varying rates and for various distances depending on the desired size of the workpiece. After completion of advancement of the grinding wheel into the workpiece, the grinding wheel may be retracted to a predetermined distance before dwell occurs. Claim: A mechanism for producing relative movement toward and away from each other between a tool of a machine tool and a workpiece comprising: a feed member; fluid-responsive means including: a housing having a chamber therein; and a piston disposed in said chamber in said housing to produce relative translational movement between said housing and said piston when fluid is supplied to said chamber; said piston having means to rotatably support said feed member; first means connecting said piston to said feed member; said first connecting man including motive means to rotate said feed member relative to said fluid-responsive means; means to prevent relative rotation between said motive means and said housing; said means to connect one of said feed member and said housing to the movable one of the workpiece and the tool and to connect the other of said feed member and said housing to a fixed structure; and said second connecting means including means to convert rotational movement of said feed member to translational movement of the movable one of the workpiece and the tool; said motive means rotating said feed member both independently of movement of the movable one of said piston and said housing due to fluid supplied to said chamber and simultaneously therewith.
