Rare earth sintered magnet fastening jig
First Claim
1. A fastening jig for securing a magnet block suitable for a method for multiple cutoff machining a rare earth sintered magnet block by using a multiple blade assembly comprising a plurality of cutoff abrasive blades coaxially mounted on a rotating shaft at axially spaced apart positions, rotating and feeding the cutoff abrasive blades to cutoff machine the magnet block into a multiplicity of pieces,the fastening jig comprising a first clamp on which the magnet block is rested, a second clamp disposed on the magnet block, and a press unit for pressing the first and second clamps to apply a pressing force to the magnet block from one or both of its upper and lower surfaces, whereina portion of at least one clamp which is disposed adjacent to the magnet block is provided with a generally horizontal channel extending inward from a position corresponding to a work surface of the magnet block, to define a resilient cantilever, whereby the magnet block is held between the first and second clamps by the repulsion force created by vertical movement of the resilient cantilever.

Abstract
A fastening jig for securing a magnet block (M) when the magnet block is cutoff machined into pieces is provided, the jig comprising a lower clamp (31) on which the magnet block is rested, an upper clamp (32) disposed on the magnet block, and a press unit (33) for pressing the clamps to apply a pressing force to the magnet block. A portion of the lower clamp (31) which is disposed adjacent to the magnet block is provided with a generally horizontal channel (311) to define a resilient cantilever (312), whereby the magnet block is held between the clamps by the repulsion force of the cantilever (312).
