Abstract
Abrasive papers comprising a multiplicity of relatively small perforations spaced over the area of the paper.
Description
SPECIFICATION
Improvements Relating to Abrasive Papers
My invention relates to abrasive papers, that is to say paper or cloth having abrasive particles thereon in the form of plain sheets, discs or belts.
One major problem of abrasive papers throughout the years is that of clogging by the relatively fine or very fine material removed from the workpiece during the sanding operation; this fine material becomes trapped between the abrasive particles and thus prevents said particlds from efficient operation. Because of this, the abrasive paper has to be discarded long before the abrasive particles have been worn away. In other words, the effect of clogging is to prevent the maximum utilisation of the abrasive particles on the paper.
The object of my invention is to provide an improved abrasive paper in which clogging of the abrasive particles in use is considerably reduced, thereby significantly increasing the effective life of the abrasive paper.
According to my invention an abrasive paper is characterised by a multiplicity of relatively small perforations spaced over the area of the paper.
By "relatively small perforations" is meant holes smaller than about 1" diameter and preferably around 41' or less.
In order that the invention may be readily understood, one embodiment of abrasive paper in accordance therewith will now be described with reference to the accompanying, diagrammatic drawing, showing a small sheet of said paper.
Referring to the drawing, a sheet of abrasive paper is provided with a multiplicity of perforations at substantially regularly spaced intervals over the area of the sheet. In this embodiment the perforations are arranged substantially in a square-lattice pattern at approximately " intervals, whilst the size of the perforations are approximaterly 1/8" diameter.
In use, I have found that abrasive paper provided with perforations in accordance with my invention reamains effective for 3 to 4 times the life of the same unperforated paper. I believe that the reason for this is that, during the sanding operation, the fine material removed from the workpiece is able to pass through the perforations thereby continuously clearing away from the operative face of the paper. Because of this there is a much reduced possibility of clogging occurring to the degree found with unperforated paper.
Furthermore, if the paper is used for a wet sanding method, the water fed to the operative face of the paper by a sponge, hose or other
suitable means entrains the fine material and
washes it through the holes, thereby again
continuously clearing this material from the
operative face.
I have experimented with perforations of
various sizes and spacings in abrasive papers of
various grades of courseness and have found that,
in general, a spacing of around > " and
perforations of 3/1 6" to " diameter give very
good results. Thus, I have found that if the
spacing between perforations is too small, the
paper disintegrates in use, whereas if the spacing
between perforations is too large, then although
an improved life compared with unperforated
paper can be expected, such improvement is not
nearly so significant, since the larger areas of the
paper between the perforations will tend to be
clogged more readily.Also, if the diameter of the
perforations is too small then the fine sanded
material cannot readily pass therethrough, whilst
if too large, the effective working surface of the
paper is unnecessarily reduced.
Most of my experimentation has been carried
out on wooden workpieces, but I have also tried
the abrasive paper on metal surfaces and again
have found a significant improvement in the life of
the paper.
It will be appreciated that the very considerable
increase in the life of the perforated abrasive
paper compared with unperforated paper can .,provide a very significant cost savings, particularly
to a large user such as a car manufacturer, and I
believe that such cost savings will far outweigh
any extra cost that may be involved in
manufacturing the perforated paper, i.e. to cover
the cost of a stamping or punching-out operation
to produce the perforations in the paper.
