==MULTI-TIP TOOLING DESIGN FOR ULTRASONIC IMPACT GRINDING OF CMCS - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18099491 titled 'MULTI-TIP TOOLING DESIGN FOR ULTRASONIC IMPACT GRINDING OF CMCS

The patent application describes a tool for ultrasonic impact grinding that vibrates along a longitudinal axis at an applied operating frequency.

* The tool includes a body, a first tip extending from the output end of the body, and a second tip parallel to the first tip.
* The second tip is longer than the first tip, providing balance across the output end of the tool body.
* The tool is designed to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of ultrasonic impact grinding processes.

Potential Applications:
* Precision machining in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and medical device manufacturing.
* Surface finishing and polishing of materials like metals, ceramics, and composites.

Problems Solved:
* Uneven material removal during grinding processes.
* Lack of balance in traditional ultrasonic impact grinding tools.

Benefits:
* Enhanced precision and control in material removal.
* Improved surface finish quality.
* Increased efficiency in grinding operations.

Commercial Applications:
* Tooling and equipment manufacturers for precision machining applications.
* Contract manufacturers offering surface finishing services.
* Research institutions developing advanced manufacturing technologies.

Prior Art:
Prior research on ultrasonic impact grinding tools and their design principles can be found in academic journals and patents related to material removal processes.

Frequently Updated Research:
Stay informed about advancements in ultrasonic impact grinding technology by following research publications in materials science and mechanical engineering journals.

Questions about Ultrasonic Impact Grinding Tools:
1. How does the length of the tips on the tool affect the balance and performance of the grinding process?

==Original Abstract Submitted==

A tool for ultrasonic impact grinding apparatus driven to vibrate along a longitudinal axis at an applied operating frequency includes a tool body disposed on the longitudinal axis, a first tip extending from an output end of the tool body, and a second tip extending in parallel to the first tip from the output end of the tool body. The first tip has a first length. The second tip has a second length greater than the first length. A mass of the first and second tip is substantially balanced across the output end of the tool body and with respect to the longitudinal axis.
