Continuous Chatter Boundary Criteria For Manufactured Parts

View page
US Patent:
7437935, Oct 21, 2008
Filed:
Mar 10, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/372918
Inventors:
Ihab M. Hanna - Lake Orion MI, US
Aleksandar J. Filipovic - West Bloomfield MI, US
Jason J. Wiedyk - Essexville MI, US
Bruce A. Tucker - Brighton MI, US
Shane E. Bremer - Hope MI, US
Assignee:
GM Global Technology Operations, Inc. - Detroit MI
International Classification:
G01B 21/00
H04R 29/00
G08B 21/00
US Classification:
73646, 73659, 73660, 381 56, 381 58, 340679, 340683
Abstract:
A chatter boundary system includes a measuring module, a comparison module, and a boundary module. The measuring module measures and collects samples of undulations in a manufactured part. The comparison module classifies a sound signal generated by the undulations as either noisy or quiet. The boundary module determines a continuous boundary between the noisy and quiet undulations based on the samples and the sound signal.

Method Of Displaying Contours Of A Surface Of A Bearing

US Patent:
7784195, Aug 31, 2010
Filed:
Feb 20, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/390140
Inventors:
Ihab M. Hanna - Lake Orion MI, US
Daniel L. O'Neil - Vassar MI, US
Jason J. Wiedyk - Grand Blanc MI, US
Aleksandar J. Filipovic - West Bloomfield MI, US
Shane E. Bremer - Hope MI, US
Assignee:
GM Global Technology Operations, Inc. - Detroit MI
International Classification:
G01B 5/20
US Classification:
33554, 33551
Abstract:
Contours of a surface of a bearing which extends about an axis are displayed on a grid. To visualize the contours, points on the surface are measured at a plurality of angular positions to determine the corresponding measured values. The measured values at each angular position are normalized to determine a normalized measurement datum corresponding to each angular position. The normalized measurement datum is subtracted from each of the measured values to determine a plurality of deviations of the corresponding points. Shades are assigned that correspond to a range of possible deviations. Each of the deviations are displayed as a data segment on a grid that represents the shape of the surface of the bearing. Each data segment is shaded on the grid to the corresponding shade to provide a topographical representation of the contours of the surface of the bearing.

US Patent:
20050170752, Aug 4, 2005
Filed:
Feb 4, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/771842
Inventors:
Shane Bremer - Hope MI, US
Scott Hucker - Ortonville MI, US
Philip Burgess - Columbia TN, US
International Classification:
B24B051/00
US Classification:
451008000
Abstract:
A method of determining the condition of a grinding wheel is provided to avoid over use or premature changing of the grinding wheel in a grinding machine, such as for crankshaft or camshaft grinding. The grinding machine has a motor which drives a grinding spindle carrying an abrasive coated hub acting as a grinding wheel. Sensors detect the level of grinding force and motor torque required to grind a workpiece into a desired shape. The information is relayed to a controller, which averages and compares the grinding force and torque information to force and torque limits to determine the condition of the wheel. In addition, the controller compares grinding force and motor torque over a series of grinds to determine the level of increase between grinds to further determine the condition of the grinding wheel. If the level of increase exceeds an increase limit, the controller actuates a fault signal to stop the grinding machine indicating that the wheel is near the end of its life cycle.

US Patent:
20080188161, Aug 7, 2008
Filed:
Feb 5, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/671008
Inventors:
SHANE E. BREMER - Hope MI, US
Ihab M. Hanna - Lake Orion MI, US
Jason J. Wiedyk - Essexville MI, US
Aleksandar J. Filipovic - West Bloomfield MI, US
Assignee:
GM Global Technology Operations, Inc. - Detroit MI
International Classification:
B24B 49/00
US Classification:
451 5, 451 1
Abstract:
A method for shaping a workpiece having a base portion using a tool is provided. The method includes rotating the tool at a fixed rotational speed in a first direction and rotating the workpiece in the first direction. The tool is positioned in contact with the workpiece at a first portion of the base portion of the workpiece. The workpiece is rotated at a first rotational speed when the tool contacts the first portion of the base portion of the workpiece. The workpiece is rotated at a second rotational speed when the tool contacts a second portion of the base portion of the workpiece. The first rotational speed and the second rotational speed are different.
