20110289855 | Superabrasive Cutting Element and Manufacturing Method with High Degree of Control of Distribution and Crystallographic Orientation of the Micro Cutting Edges - An abrasive element comprises a body of crystalline abrasive material. The body has an array of cutting elements formed of crystalline abrasive material which projects from a surface of the body. The shape, size and form of the projections is controlled in the production process. The body may be a natural or synthetic crystal. The body may be a film formed by deposition. The body may be diamond or cubic boron nitride. The body may be monocrystalline or polycrystalline. The projections may be aligned along a crystallographic plane or planes. | 12-01-2011 |

20140076864 | BOROSCOPE AND A METHOD OF LASER PROCESSING A COMPONENT WITHIN AN ASSEMBLED APPARATUS USING A BOROSCOPE - A boroscope includes a working head having first and second ends. A first optical fibre extends through the boroscope to a position between the first and second ends. A second optical fibre extends through the boroscope to the second end of the working head. A laser optical fibre extends through the boroscope. At least one lens is arranged between the first end and the second end of the working head and a mirror is gimballed to the second end of the working head. The laser optical fibre directs laser light transmitted through the laser optical fibre onto the lens and then onto the mirror. A first LED is arranged at a position between the first end and the second end of the working head and a second LED is arranged at the second end of the working head and an actuator devices adjust the position of the mirror. | 03-20-2014 |
20140260755 | MULTI-JOINTED ARM ASSEMBLY - A multi jointed robot arm includes at least first and second link members connected by a connection arrangement and at least a first control cable. First and second ends of the first control cable engage with first and second engagement point of the first link member and first and second attachment points of the second link member. The assembly further includes a first actuator configured to selectively tension the first and second ends of the first control cable such that the second link member pivots toward a first or second side, wherein the connection arrangement is arranged to pivot at a first pivot point located substantially along a notional line extending between the first and second attachment points, and to pivot at a second pivot point extending between the first and second engagement points. | 09-18-2014 |
