1,040,537. Making wheels; spinning. CINCINNATI MILLING MACHINE CO. Nov. 6, 1964 [Dec. 23, 1963], No. 45415/64. Headings B3A and B3J. A method of forming a groove 84, 86, Fig. 4 (not shown), in the outer surface of a tubular workpiece, e.g. a wheel, supported on a mandrel 17 having a reduced end 68 comprises pressing a conical plug 21, Fig. 3 (not shown), against the end of the work while rotating the work relatively to a forming tool 74 which presses the work against the reduced end of the mandrel. In a preliminary operation the work, located against a shoulder on the mandrel, Fig. 2 (not shown), is thinned and elongated from the original form 65 by a forming roll 50. After forming the groove (Fig. 4) it is given a radial wall, Fig. 5 (not shown), by a further radially and axially movable roll 88. The wall is then trimmed, forming an edge 96. Apparatus, Fig. 1 (not shown), for spinning the work is similar to that described in Specification 889,077 and includes a headstock 15 supporting and rotating the mandrel and a tailstock 14 movable by an hydraulic cylinder 23 for applying the plug 21 against the work. The roll 50 for thinning the work is mounted on a cross-slide 43 carried by a saddle 38. An hydraulic cylinder 45 for feeding the cross-slide 43 is controlled by a valve which is operated by a stylus 58 engaging a pattern 59. The saddle is traversed by a cylinder 40. The roll 74 for spinning the groove is also mounted on a saddle and a cross-slide controlled by a template 80. The finishing roll 88 is substituted for either of the rolls 50, 74 and is controlled by a feed-stop (not shown) or by a pattern. |
