Description: |
| Claim:
Surface grinding of flats and squares on cylindrical work pieces such as gages, punches, shafts, etc. is usually done by clamping the piece in a V-block with the portion to be ground projecting from one end of the block. The standard V-block is basically a metal block containing a cavity of V-shaped cross-section extending the length of the block, and having a bottom surface normal to the plane bisecting the V-shaped cavity. Ordinarily the V-block is chucked magnetically or mechanically beneath a grinding wheel and the desired cut is made. |
