  • the slots 32 of the blade 18 may be generally as wide as the diameter of the shaft portion 36 of the retainer 30 in a first direction and longer than the shaft diameter in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. In a mounted disposition, the blade thereby may travel in the second direction corresponding to the length of the slots 32 but not in the first direction corresponding to the width of the slots.
  • the slots 32 alternatively may have an elliptical or other similar oblong shape.
  • the mount 14 further includes at least one recess 44 in the base 20 opposite the blade receiving slot 16.

  • a resilient member 46 such as a spring or similar is received in each recess 44, and the resilient member is in urged engagement with the blade 18.
  • each recess 44 is cylindrical in shape for receiving a resilient member 46 that is a coil spring or similar.
  • a spacer 48 may be inserted between the resilient member 46 and the blade 18 inserted into the slot 16. The spacer 48 provides an intermediate surface between the resilient member 46 and the blade 18, thereby reducing wear of the resilient member.
  • the spacer 48 may be a threadless bolt such as an alien head bolt or similar.
  • the resilient member 46 wraps around the shaft of the bolt and engages the head of the bolt, and the head of the bolt engages the blade 18.
  • the spacer 48 may be a washer or similar.
  • the resilient members 46 provide for the resilient loading of the blade in the support member.
  • the mount 14 is mountable to a backing plate 12 of a sanding/grinding apparatus. Fasteners such as mounting bolts 50 may be inserted into the through holes 26 of the mount 14 to secure the mount 14 to the backing plate 12.
  • the base 20 of the mount 14 that includes the recesses 44 is positioned adjacent the backing plate 12 and the slot 16 for receiving the abrading blade 18 is positioned opposite from the backing plate.
  • the backing plate 12 may also include recesses 52 for receiving ends of the resilient members 46 therein when the mount 14 is mounted on the backing plate.
  • the backing plate 12 may not include the recesses 52, and the resilient members may rest on the surface of the backing plate and may be entirely " received within the recesses 44 of the mount 14.
  • the resilient members 46 allow for the travel of the blade towards and away from the backing plate.
  • the blade holder 10 may be disposed proximate an outer edge of the backing plate 12 and may be angled relative to radii of the backing plate extending from the center of the backing plate to the outer edge. This allows for sanding waste to be directed towards the center of the backing plate 12 as the backing plate rotates during use.
  • a plurality of the blade holders 10 may be mounted on the backing plate 12. For example, in one embodiment, eight blade holders 10 may be mounted on the backing plate 12, although fewer or more blade holders may be mounted on the backing plate.
  • the backing plate 12 also may include a plurality of apertures 54 disposed along circle (s) that are concentric with the outer edge of the backing plate. One of the circles may be closer to the center of the backing plate 12 than the blade holders 10.
  • the apertures 54 allow for the suction of sanding/grinding waste from a working surface being sanded to a vacuum source.
  • the blade holder 10 is capable of holding a variety of different blades 18. Therefore, interchangeable blades 18 may be used with the blade holder 10. For example, a blade having an abrasive surface at an end of the blade may be mounted in the blade holder. This blade can be removed from the blade holder, and a blade having a diamond-coated abrasive edge may be mounted in the blade holder. Furthermore, it may be desired to non spring load mount certain interchangeable blades 18. In this case, the resilient members 46 may be removed from the blade holder 10 prior to mounting of a blade 18 in the blade holder.
  • the backing plate 12 and associated abrading blade holders 10 may be mounted on a rotary sander, orbital sander, or similar.
  • the abrasive blade 18 mounted in each blade holder 10 is contactable with a working surface to be sanded or ground.
  • the "height" of the blades 18 relative to the mount 14 of the blade holder 10 is self -adjusted by contraction or expansion of the resilient members 46 in the blade holder.
  • the sanding/grinding apparatus rotates the backing plate 12 at conventional rotational speeds up to 1200 rpm and above.
  • the blades 18 skim along the working surface without forming grooves or swirls in the working surface. Because the blades 18 are spring loaded, the blades evenly and equally sand/grind the working surface without one of the blades cutting deeper into the working surface than the others. This leaves the support surface smooth and straight without gouges or swirl marks.
  • the blade holder 10 and backing plate 12 assembly is self-cleaning and does not become clogged with waste material generated during sanding/grinding the working surface.
  • the angle of the blade holders 10 and their associated abrading blades 18 relative to radii of the backing plate 12 drives sanding waste towards the center of the backing plate as the backing plate rotates. The sanding waste is then sucked away from the working surface through the apertures 54 in the backing plate 12.
  • the arrangement of the blade holders 10 prevents sanding waste from escaping beyond the outer edge of the backing plate 12 and forces sanding waste away from the abrasive blades 18 towards the center of the backing plate, cleaning the blades and preventing clogging.
  • the blade holders 10 and associated blades 18 also dissipate heat generated from sanding/grinding the working surface by functioning like a fan. While sanding/grinding the working surface, the blades 18 simultaneously function as fan blades to blow air on the working surface. This cools both the working surface and the blades themselves.
