  • the reduction of the moving masses also allows a simplified vibration damping within the drive train and the tool guides, whether this is active or passive.
  • the carrier body according to the invention can be made of a variety of materials, such as steel, aluminum, copper, bronze or the like, since the vibration is not carried out by the material properties themselves, but by the geometric configuration of the bushings of the carrier body.
  • both a significant weight reduction can be achieved as a targeted vibration damping, especially in metallic support bodies, which have almost no radial elasticity in support bodies of solid material or support bodies with bushings of small geometric dimensions.

  • the sizes which are most preferably used in the context of the above ratios are thicknesses D between 10 mm inclusive and 600 mm inclusive and radii R A between 75 mm inclusive and 350 mm inclusive.
  • an odd number of feedthroughs are provided for optimizing the vibration behavior, as this, in conjunction with the intended speed, can lead to reduced resonant tooling.
  • the bushings are designed in the form of quadrilaterals in their base area, wherein the long sides are preferably connected in a radially extending manner to the short sides, and the short sides are arranged on the inner or outer region of the carrier body.
  • a straight course of the long sides of the bushings is preferred but not required.
  • a rounded design of the inner corners of the squares is preferred so that sharp-edged inner corners are present at the bushings.
  • At least one of the short sides in the plan view can be at least partially circular-segment-shaped, for example concentric with the outer circumference of the lateral surface.
  • the two long sides of the respective bushing are designed to be of equal length, so that the bushings of the carrier body in this embodiment of the invention appear substantially annular segment-shaped.
  • the quadrangular shape according to the invention also has, in plan view, a substantially delta-shaped configuration in which two corners of the quadrangular shape substantially coincide.
  • This embodiment of the grinding tool according to the invention is referred to as a spoke segment disc, in particular when a plurality of passages are provided, for example 12, since the material remaining between the passages is spoke-like, the spokes preferably having a thickness in the direction of the axis of rotation which is substantially the entire material thickness of the carrier body, and the corresponding, preferably also have the jacket body.

  • the resulting from the remaining between adjacent passages material of this embodiment of the invention spokes are thus arcuately curved and preferably circularly curved and extend in the interior of the carrier body, ie substantially from the hub or axle initially substantially radially outward, then, by the curvature of which is a kind of asymptotic approach towards the periphery of the tool.
  • the degree or extent of the approach of the spokes to the circumference of the tool is different selectable and, as it were, an essential parameter for the radial elasticity of the tool.
  • the long sides of adjacent bushings are substantially parallel, and this applies equally to substantially radially extending long sides of the bushings as well as curved or even circular segment running. Nevertheless, for example, those embodiments are preferred within the scope of the invention, in which a tapering of the spokes is carried out towards the outer region of the carrier body by a non-parallel course of the long sides of passages, whereby further influencing the radial elasticity and the weight of the tools according to the invention this Embodiment can be achieved.
  • the longer of the short sides is arranged in the outer region of the carrier body, that is arranged close to or even adjacent to the jacket body and the shorter of the short sides in the inner region of the carrier body, ie near the hub or axle fitting or adjacent thereto.
  • the bushings of the carrier body from its opposite cylindrical top surfaces are incorporated substantially up to its center in the material of the carrier body, for example by milling. It is particularly advantageous, the bushings, which are incorporated from the second side, so for example, the upper cylinder top surface of the carrier body ago by a predetermined rotation angle ⁇ about the axis of rotation rotates with respect to those of the first side of the carrier body, so for example the lower cylinder top surface will be incorporated to rotate. As a result, the spokes between adjacent feedthroughs of one side of the carrier body are thus substantially not congruent with the spokes between adjacent feedthroughs of the other side of the carrier body.
