12' Claims; (Cl; 18-39) This invention relates to sanding blocks of the type used in the profile sanding of wood molding and the like, and more particularly to an. improved sanding block of this sort that isuniquely formed with an eX- ceptionally serviceable pressure face. liner of plastic material, and to the method and means for forming. a sanding block with such a. liner.
Heretofore sanding blocks have beerr formed. according to standard practice either from a block. of solid material such as Wood, or' from a relatively more resilient material such as hard block felt. In either case, the technique of forming. the blocks has characteristically consisted in cutting: a reverse profile of the wood molding to be sanded in one face of the sanding block material being used to form a. pressure face for pressing a sanding belt against the molding during the sanding operation. The cutting of this profile in the sanding block pressure faces has commonly been. done by hand, and has involved painstaking. and laborious shaping and fitting to obtain satisfactory accuracy. As a different sanding block having. the particular'profile required must be provided for each different wood molding to be sanded, and as these sanding blocks become worn rather rapidly when formed of. the usual materials heretofore employed, the problem of forming; and maintaining an adequate supply of these sanding blocks for carrying out profile sandingoperations has been particularly burdensome and costly, especially in continuous automatic sanding operations and where relatively heavy sanding pressures are used as is now generally thought to be desirable.
According to the present invention there is now provided a sanding block that may be easily and quickly formed with a pressure face conforming accurately to the profile of the wood molding to be sanded, and that can be made very substantially more wear resistant and serviceable than has heretofore been possible. Briefly described, the sanding block of the present invention is characterized by a pressure face liner formed ofa dimensionally stable plastic material and bearing on its exposed face an impression of the wood molding profile to be sanded.
This pressure face liner is formed in accordance with the present invention by casting it over a length of the wood molding to be sanded so that the pressure face profile is obtained accurately from the wood molding profile itself. For this purpose, a sanding block length of the wood molding to be sanded (i. e., a length of this wood molding equal to the length of the sanding block to be formed) is used directly as a part of the casting mold, and a sanding block body member formed with a liner cavity is used as another part, so that in addition to obtaining an accurate pressure face impression of the wood molding profile, the pressure face liner member is also cast directly on the sanding block body member in the course of being formed. As a result, the sanding blocks of the present invention may be readily formed with excellent accuracy while requir- Patented. Sept. 13;,12855:
2; ing only a fraction. of the time: and expense heretofore necessary for sanding bloclc preparation. I
The present invention is described in further detail below in connection: with: the accompanying drawings; in which:
Fig. l is a perspective: view illustrating: generally the arrangement of a sanding block embodying thepresent invention;
Fig. 2 is an exploded view' in end elevation: of. the basic mold elements employed in forming at sanding block such as is illustrated'in- Fig. 1';
Fig. 3 is a further perspective: view related? generally to Fig. l and illustrating'the arrangement of; a length of Wood molding to be sanded for use in: forming, a sanding block with a pressure face liner in: accordance with the present invention;
Fig. 4 is a plan view of a mold-assembled for-casting a pressure face liner member in accordance with the present invention;
Fig. 5 is a section of the mold taken substantially on the line 5-5- in- Fig. 4, and: illustrating, theform of the cast liner therein; and
Fig. 6 is a section taken on, the line in Fig. 4; and in which the cast liner is also-illustrated.
In Fig. 1- of the: drawings, the: sanding: block embodying the present invention is. indicated; generally by reference numeral 10; and asshown comprises a sanding block body member 1 2, and a pressure: facel-iner 14. The body member 12 will.- usuallybe formed most conveniently of wood, although; it might be formed. of a. variety of other suitable materials too if desired...
The pressureface. liner 14 iswforme'd. of a-plastic material according to the; present invention, as previously noted. The plastic material. used is one that is: heat resistant and a dimensionally stable one? in the. sense that it is a relatively firm unyielding; material when finally formed. Also, the plastic material used is one that is adapted for casting, as distinguished fronr'pressure molding, and one that may be thermosettofa dimensionally stable final form. as noted above. Examples of suchplastic materials that may be used to good. advantage in accordance with the present invention are Durez casting; resin No. 7421 A and-. Marblette resin No. 69, both of whichare phenolic resins.
As. mentioned above, the sanding block body member 12- is employed according to the present invention in conjunction with a length: of the Wood molding. to be sanded for forming a casting mold for' the pressure face liner 14, and Fig. 2 of the drawings-illustrates generally the manner-inwhich this is done.v In- Eig. 2, e
the Wood moldingto be sanded is indicated at 1:6- in re.- lation to a mold base member 18, which may also be suitably formed of wood, and. on which the wood mold.- inglength 16 may be mounted as by fastening screws 20.
The sanding block body member 12 is adapted to serve as the upper casting mold part by being; formed, with a longitudinal: cavity 22 having a greater transverse extent than that of the profile of: the wood molding 1'6 to be sanded. This cavity 22-may, if desired, be. formed with a reentrant portion as-at for anchoring the liner 14 on the body member. 12;: and a-pouring; aperture as at 26, together with a suitable numbeit of riser apertures 28, are formed in the body'member 12 to exsufiiciently approximating the thickness of a sanding belt so that an expanded profile impression of the wood molding 16 will be made in the cast liner 14 for accommodating a sanding belt to run smoothly between the liner pressure face and the wood molding to be sanded. Preferably, this facing 30 comprises a vinyl film tape carrying a pressure-sensitive adhesive on one of its faces so that it may be secured on the wood molding 16 in accurate conformance with the molding profile. Such tapes may be obtained readily in a thickness of about .010 which We have found is a very satisfactory thickness relation to usual sanding belt thicknesses which normally range from about .015" to .017".
Although not a necessary feature of a sanding block formed in accordance with the present invention, it is also possible with a tape of this sort to arrange a series of contiguous transverse tape strips adjacent each end of the length of wood molding 16 as at 32, 34 and 36, and in an increasing number of layers toward each end as illustrated, so as to form the pressure face impression in the liner 14 with a sanding belt entrance and exit taper which in many cases is particularly useful in facilitating the application of a sanding belt to the work during profile sanding operations. When such an arrangement of transverse taper forming strips 32, 34 and 36 are used, these strips are preferably arranged on the length of wood molding 16 and the base member 18 first, and then covered with a continuous facing sheet 36 of the tape that extends over the entire length of the wood molding 16 and the mold base 18 so as to smooth over and round off the stepped arrangement of the transverse strips 32, 34 and 36. compensation for the irregularities produced by these tape strips at 32, 34 and 36 may be made by placing corresponding tape strip layers 38 on the mold base 18 at the sides of the length of molding 16 to provide for sealing off the casting mold at this point. Alternatively, a sanding belt entrance and exit taper may be obtained in the sanding block 10 by grinding or otherwise machining a suitable radius or taper at the ends of the liner 14 after it is formed.
The length of wood molding 16 prepared in the manner described above is employed as the bottom portion of a casting mold for the sanding block liner 14, the casting mold being completed by disposing the sanding block body member 12 over the prepared length of wood molding 16 and closing the ends of the longitudinal cavity 22 in the body member 12 by end plates or the like as at 40, so that a mold space is formed by the body member cavity 22 over the prepared length of wood molding 16. Accordingly, plastic material may be poured into this mold cavity through the body member aperture 26 to cast the sanding block liner 14 with an impression in its exposed face of the profile of the wood molding length 16. After casting and suitable curing of the plastic liner 14 has been completed, the body member 12 may be removed with the castliner 14 secured thereon for use directly as the complete sanding block 10.
The nature of the plastic material from which the liner 14 is formed according to the present invention has already been described above, and the liner 14 may be formed from such plastic material alone if desired. In addition, however, this plastic material may be modified to enhance its physical characteristics further, in accordance with the present invention, by providing it with an especially hard wear resisting pressure face and by incorporating in it a dry lubricant.
In order to obtain the especially hard wear resisting surface mentioned above, a substantial proportion of discrete glass particles may be included in the plastic casting mix. Suitably, these glass particles may be in the form of spherical glass beads, and we have found that such glass beads of 28 to 35 mesh size (i. e., the size that will pass mesh openings from .0235" to .0164) give very satisfactory results. Preferably, the size of glass beads used should be no smaller than this because a pronounced abrasive action is reached with smaller sizes, although the glass head size might be further increased for further avoiding any abrasive effect so long as a suitably discrete particle size is retained that is satisfactorily dispersible in and compatible with the casting resin. When such glass beads are incorporated in the plastic casting mix they are adapted by reason of their weight for sinking by gravity to the bottom of the mold space as the casting mix is poured and cured, with the result they are concentrated at and adjacent the pressure face of the liner 14 as indicated at 42 in Figs. 5 and 6, during the casting process. Accordingly, these glass beads 42 dispose themselves naturally for providing a hard wear resistant pressure surface on the liner 14 in the course of formation of the liner 14.
As a dry lubricator for the liner 14, we have found that molybdenum disulfide may be incorporated in the plastic casting mix to good advantage for this purpose. The molybdenum disulfide is fully compatible with the plastic materials adapted for forming the liner 14 in accordance with the present invention, and may be dispersed therein so that it is always available at the pressure face of the liner 14 for lubricating and thereby improving the manner in which a sanding belt will run over the pressure face of the liner 14. Also, graphite might be used as the dry lubricant if desired.
As an example of the manner in which glass beads and molybdenum disulfide may be incorporated in the plastic casting mix for the purposes noted above, we have found that a good concentration of glass beads at the liner pressure face and a well lubricated pressure face are obtained with a plastic casting mix in which by volume two thirds parts of glass beads (28 to 35 mesh size) and one third parts of molybdenum disulfide are incorporated for each part of plastic.
The present invention has been described in detail above for purposes of illustration only and is not intended to be limited by this description or otherwise except as defined in the appended claims.
