Abstract A rotary scraping or abrading tool in which a rotatable disc has a multiple of guiding bores through which scraping elements are axially arranged. The scraping elements have outer active ends extending beyond the face of the disc facing the workpiece to be treated. Inner ends of the scraping elements bear against a disc of elastic material. The scraping elements are provided with axial play within the bores which are arranged as coacting sets of holes in at least two adjacent parallel discs. The scraping elements are in the form of circular cylindrical tubular studs with a scraping end cross-cut and with an inner end thereof having a head. The cross section of the head exceeds the cross section of the remainder of the stud. The bores, moreover, have an axis at an acute angle relative to the direction of rotation of the discs.
A rotary scraping or abrading tool including a disc having a multiplicity of guide means therein through which scraping elements are axially arranged, said scraping elements having outer active ends extending beyond the face of the disc facing the workpiece to be treated, a disc of elastic material, said scraping elements having inner ends bearing against said disc of elastic material, said guide means comprising bores arranged as coacting sets of holes provided in said disc and one adjacent parallel disc, said scraping elements comprising circular cylindrical tubular studs with a scraping end cross-cut and with an inner end thereof having a head, said head having a cross-section exceeding the cross-section of the remainder of the stud.
