Method and apparatus for cleaving anisotropic pyrolytically deposited materials on curved surfaces
Abstract
Abstract A METHOD OF SEPARATION OF ARTICLES DEPOSITED BY GAS PYROLYSIS FROM TERMINATION PORTIONS FORMED DURING MANUFACTURE. THE SEPARATION OF THE CENTER PORTION OF THE DEPOSITED ARTICLE FROM THE TERMINATION PORTIONS NORMALLY FORMED DURING THE DEPOSITION PROCEDURE IS FACILIATED BY FORMING A RADIALLY INWARDLY EXTENDING ROUNDED ANNULAR SHOULDER ADJACENT TO AND ON THE TERMNATION SIDE OF AN ANNULAR FLANGE USED TO CREATE A FAULT IN THE DEPOSITED ARTICLE. THE COMBINATION OF THE ROUNDED SHOULDER AND THE FLANGE PRODUCES A FAULT IN THE PYROLYTICALLY DEPOSITED MATERIAL AND STRESES ON EITHER SIDE OF THE FAULT THAT ARE OPPOSITE IN DIRECTION WHICH RESULTS IN A CLEAN SEPARATION OF THE TERMINATION PORTION FROM THE CENTER PORTION OF THE DEPOSITED PPYROLYTIC ARTICLE.
