Abstract: Through making experiment, research and summary on three situations of Thomas, Cossack and Bare Foot, as well as the mechanical parameters under the combination of these three situations, the paper concludes the differences of the properties (such as stamping and shock resistance, etc.) among various special shoes for aerobics and different influences on bounce action caused by these various shoes. It plays an instructive significance to the choice of professional aerobic shoes

Abstract: In order to increase the production quality and efficiency of the battery grid, the new type of continuous casting machine is designed in this article. First the structure of the continuous casting machine is introduced, namely drum, shoe and clamp mechanism. Then, the drum is designed whose peripheral surface is machined the battery grid pattern machined ,in which the liquid circulation system is disposed to maintain its stable temperature. Finally the shoe is introduced which has an arcuate surface, and it is maintained in pressure-mating engagement with the outer peripheral surface of drum by the clamp mechanism The successful design of continuous casting machine will significantly increase the production efficiency and quality of battery grid.

Abstract: This paper clarifies the influence of the geometrical arrangement of the workpiece on workpiece roundness in the ultrasonic elliptic-vibration shoe centerless grinding, and determines an optimum geometrical arrangement for minimizing the roundness error of the workpiece. The influences of the geometrical arrangements of the workpiece on workpiece roundness were investigated by computer simulation and practical grinding operations involving pin shaped workpieces. The experimental results agreed closely with those obtained by the simulation, the results of simulation and grinding tests indicated that the final roundness error of the workpiece after grinding reaches a minimum at a particular angle number (= + =7) for various values of the blade angle.

Abstract: The present authors proposed a new centerless grinding technique for the fabrication of microscale pin-shaped parts. The new technique uses an ultrasonic vibration shoe whose structure and dimensions was determined in detail by FEM analysis instead of a regulating wheel as in conventional centerless grinding. The workpiece is supported by the end face of the shoe and the blade, and the rotational motion is controlled by the micro elliptic motion generated on the end face of the shoe. a shoe was made and installed on an existing centerless grinder to perform actual microscale centreless grinding operations involving a tungsten carbide pin-shaped workpiece 0.6 mm in diameter and 15mm in length. The experimental result gave a microscale workpiece 75μm in diameter and 15 mm in length.

Abstract: This paper describes an experimental investigation of the effect of ultrasonic elliptic vibration of the shoe on the friction between the shoe and the workpiece in ultrasonic elliptic-vibration shoe centerless grinding, a new centerless grinding technique proposed previously by the present authors. In the new technique, an ultrasonic elliptic-vibration shoe is employed to control the workpiece rotational speed as a regulating wheel does in conventional centerless grinding. The grinding accuracy is affected significantly by the workpiece rotation stability, which is dependent on the frictional force between the workpiece and the ultrasonic elliptic-vibration shoe. The issue relating to the friction between the workpiece and the shoe is therefore very important in the complete establishment of the new centerless grinding technique. In the present work, in order to clarify the effect of ultrasonic elliptic vibration of the shoe on the frictional coefficient and to determine the appropriate ultrasonic elliptic vibration conditions, a measurement apparatus was built up in-house and used to measure the frictional coefficient under the presence and absence of the ultrasonic elliptic vibration. The measurement results indicated that the frictional coefficient decreases with increase in the size of the ultrasonic elliptic motion, and a shape of the elliptic motion, in which the frictional coefficient reaches maximum, exists.
