Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 265 words
A method for the fabrication of an apparatus for the true fitting and highly accurate bearing and detachable fastening of various workpieces to be machined comprising: (a) boring a plurality of holes in a plate, said holes being arranged in a predetermined coordinate pattern at a predetermined modular distance from each other within a normal (0.3 mm) tolerance of accuracy to form a modular clamping plate; (b) placing precision holding sockets of a smaller diameter than that of the bore holes into the bore holes which results in appearance of an annular interspace; (c) aligning the placed precision holding sockets with aid of a high precision master plate having a plurality of socket engaging means arranged precisely in said predetermined coordinate pattern so that said means are at said predetermined modular distance from each other within a highly precise tolerance of accuracy; and (d) applying an age hardening material into the annular interspace; and (e) separating the modular clamping plate from the master plate after the age hardening material has hardened; wherein said boring step further comprises: drilling a first bore part, and second bore part, and wherein said placing step comprises inserting in the first bore part the holding fitting sockets with creation of an interspace, and wherein after said separating step, the method further comprises: placing a threaded holding socket featuring an inner thread in the second bore hole part, positioning it with respect to the fixed position of the holding fitting socket, and in the interspace between the holding threaded socket and the second bore hole part applying the age hardening material.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 265 words
A method for the fabrication of an apparatus for the true fitting and highly accurate bearing and detachable fastening of various workpieces to be machined comprising: (a) boring a plurality of holes in a plate, said holes being arranged in a predetermined coordinate pattern at a predetermined modular distance from each other within a normal (0.3 mm) tolerance of accuracy to form a modular clamping plate; (b) placing precision holding sockets of a smaller diameter than that of the bore holes into the bore holes which results in appearance of an annular interspace; (c) aligning the placed precision holding sockets with aid of a high precision master plate having a plurality of socket engaging means arranged precisely in said predetermined coordinate pattern so that said means are at said predetermined modular distance from each other within a highly precise tolerance of accuracy; and (d) applying an age hardening material into the annular interspace; and (e) separating the modular clamping plate from the master plate after the age hardening material has hardened; wherein said boring step further comprises: drilling a first bore part, and second bore part, and wherein said placing step comprises inserting in the first bore part the holding fitting sockets with creation of an interspace, and wherein after said separating step, the method further comprises: placing a threaded holding socket featuring an inner thread in the second bore hole part, positioning it with respect to the fixed position of the holding fitting socket, and in the interspace between the holding threaded socket and the second bore hole part applying the age hardening material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 56 words
The method in accordance with claim 1, wherein the holding threaded socket is concentrically aligned with respect to the holding fitting socket by a series of steps comprising sliding a fitting screw into the holding socket leaving a threaded end exposed and screwing a threaded holding socket onto the threaded exposed end of the fitting screw.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 261 words
A method for the fabrication of an apparatus for the true fitting and highly accurate bearing and fastening of workpieces to be machined comprising: (a) boring holes in a plate at a predetermined modular distance from each other within a normal (0.3 mm) tolerance of accuracy; (b) placing precision holding sockets of a smaller diameter than that of the bore holes into the bore holes which results in appearance of an annular interspace; (c) aligning the placed precision holding sockets with aid of a high precision master plate; and (d) applying an age hardening material into the annular interspace; and (e) separating the modular clamping plate from the master plate after the age hardening material has hardened; and wherein said drilling step further comprises: drilling a first fitting bore part, and a second bore part, and that in the first fitting bore part are introduced the holding fitting sockets with creation of an interspace, and wherein after said separating step, the method further comprises: placing a threaded holding socket featuring an inner thread in the second bore hole part, positioning it with respect to the fixed position of the holding fitting socket and in the interspace between the threaded holding socket and the second bore hole applying the age hardening material; and wherein the threaded holding socket is concentrically aligned with respect to the holding fitting socket by a series of steps comprising sliding a fitting screw into the holding socket, leaving a threaded end exposed and screwing a threaded holding socket onto the threaded exposed end of the fitting screw.
Claim 5
Independent Claim 261 words
A method for the fabrication of an apparatus for the true fitting and highly accurate bearing and fastening of workpieces to be machined comprising: (a) boring holes in a plate at a predetermined modular distance from each other within a normal (0.3 mm) tolerance of accuracy; (b) placing precision holding sockets of a smaller diameter than that of the bore holes into the bore holes which results in appearance of an annular interspace; (c) aligning the placed precision holding sockets with aid of a high precision master plate; and (d) applying an age hardening material into the annular interspace; and (e) separating the modular clamping plate from the master plate after the age hardening material has hardened; and wherein said drilling step further comprises: drilling a first fitting bore part, and a second bore part, and that in the first fitting bore part are introduced the holding fitting sockets with creation of an interspace, and wherein after said separating step, the method further comprises: placing a threaded holding socket featuring an inner thread in the second bore hole part, positioning it with respect to the fixed position of the holding fitting socket and in the interspace between the threaded holding socket and the second bore hole applying the age hardening material; and wherein the threaded holding socket is concentrically aligned with respect to the holding fitting socket by a series of steps comprising sliding a fitting screw into the holding socket, leaving a threaded end exposed and screwing a threaded holding socket onto the threaded exposed end of the fitting screw.
