Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
SAMUEL WHYTE, OF REDHILL, ENGLAIVD.
PROCESS OF RESHARPENING FILES.
No Drawing.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, SAMUEL WI-IYTE,
B. So, a subject of the King of Great Britain and Ireland, and residing at Shir1ey, Earlswood- Road, Bedhill, in the county of Surrey, England, have invented certain new and useful Improvements Relating to Processes of Resharpening Files, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to the renewing of the cutting edges of files or other appliances having similar multiple cutting edges, by etching.
I have found that etching is produced upon file steels by hot dilute sulfuric acid, but that the action rapidly becomes not uniform. The action on the bottoms of the grooves between the teeth soon ceases, and they become clogged, possibly with iron carbids set free. Again, dilute hydrochloric acid only acts very slowly, much too slowly for industrial working. Dilute nitric acid, on the other hand, acts very rapidly, and tends to pit the surfaces. Its action alone is very difficult to control. It has, however, the valuable property of very rapidly cleaning the surfaces, and removing all clogging metal and other matter.
Now the present invention consists in employing. to renovate files and the like, combinations of nitric and hydrochloric acids giving industrially controllable etching.
In carrying this invention into effect, the ordinary worn files are, after cleaning, immersed in a warm bath of mixed nitric and hydrochloric acids, in substantially equal Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Aug, 26, 1919,
Application filed April 16, 1919.
Serial No. 290,575.
parts of these acids, and of water. The rate of etching depends on the temperature of the bath, and this is maintained practically constant. -At about 80 F., the files will be found to take about eight minutes to complete, while if the bath be raised to about 100 F., they will be completed in about four minutes. They are then removed from the bath, washed, and preferably wiped with oil, when they are ready 'for packing.
I employ suitable frames into which the files are inserted and held for dipping into the vats, and arrange for the mechanical low ering of the files into the respective vats. I also prefer to provide for circulation of the etching and washing fluids.
The final washing is preferably efi'ected in an alkaline water, say lime water.
I claim:
1. A process of renovating files and the like consisting in etching the cleaned Worn files by immersion in a warm bath of substantially equal parts of nitric acid, hydrochloric acid and water, at a temperature of about 100 F.
2. A process of renovating files and the like consisting in etching the cleaned Worn files by immersion in a bath composed essentially of substantially equal parts of hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and Water, maintained at about 100 F., and thereafter washing, such washing operation including washing with an alkaline solution.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.
SAMUEL WHYTE.
