| 141 | Surface Contouring of a Weld Cap and Adjacent Base Metal Using Ultrasonic Impact Treatment | US14235530 | 2012-07-30 | US20140169863A1 | 2014-06-19 | David John Sharman; Samuel B. Abston, II; Taylor Hanes |
| A method for forming a smooth interface between a weld cap and an adjacent base metal utilizing ultrasonic impact treatment. The method improves the geometric profile of a weld while imparting a compressive residual stress layer on the weld metal and base metal thereby alleviating the tensile residual stresses imparted to the metals during welding. The contouring process does not remove material, as in grinding, but plastically deforms the surface being treated producing a densified surface, in turn providing a smooth weld cap and base metal surface finish without the loss of base or weld metal thickness. | ||||||
| 142 | METHOD OF SCALE SUBSTRATE MANUFACTURE | US14002231 | 2012-03-05 | US20130335071A1 | 2013-12-19 | Peter Kogej; Vojteh Leskovsek |
| The present invention relates to a method for producing a magnetic substrate for an encoder scale. The method comprising the step of mechanically working the substrate, wherein the substrate is cooled prior to the mechanical working step. In one embodiment, a stainless steel substrate is used. The stainless steel may comprise an austenite (non-magnetic) phase and a martensite (magnetic) phase. Mechanically working and cooling in this manner increases the amount of magnetic (martensite) phase material that is formed, thereby improving the magnetic contrast when non-magnetic (austenite) marking are subsequently formed on the substrate by laser marking. | ||||||

| Peening provides compression of component (6, 46, 56) surfaces in order to create residual surface compressions to resist crack propagation in components such as aerofoils. Previously peening techniques have had problems with respect to achieving adequate treatment depths, speed of treatment and with respect to effectiveness. By the present method arrangement an electrical conductor (1, 41, 51) in the form of a wire is subject to electrical pulses to cause evaporation and subsequent breakdown with high power ultrasound (HPU) propagation in a volume of dielectric fluid towards a component and so peening. The electrical conductor (1, 41, 51) ensures that there is limited possibility of electrical discharge to the component (6, 46, 51) surface whilst the positioning of the wire (1, 41, 51) relative to the surface can be adjusted to achieve best effect particularly if reflector (5) devices are utilised to concentrate (HPU) pulse presentation to the component (6, 46, 56). Furthermore, the component (6, 46, 56) can be surface treated in order to provide protection from potentially damaging emissions from evaporation and electrical discharge to the wire (1, 41, 51). | ||||||

| A method of working metal in which the microstructure of metal body is rendered fine to thereby enhance the strength, ductility or homogeneity thereof; a metal body obtained by the metal working method; and a metal-containing ceramic body obtained by the metal working method. In this metal working method, the deformation resistance of metal body or metal-containing ceramic body (hereinafter referred to simply as “metal body”) is lowered locally to thereby form low deformation resistance regions in the metal body, and shear deformation of the low deformation resistance regions is effected so as to fine the microstructure of metal body. In particular, the metal body is formed in unidirectionally drawn configuration so as to produce low deformation resistance regions crossing the metal body. Further, with respect to two non-low deformation resistance regions arranged to sandwich low deformation resistance region crossing the metal body, one non-low deformation resistance region is caused to have a relative position change to the other non-low deformation resistance region so as to effect shear deformation of the low deformation resistance region. The low deformation resistance regions can be moved along the direction of drawing of the metal body. | ||||||
