Zusammenfassung: | An embodiment of a tool assembly (31) includes a robotic assembly (100), a tool mount, and a non-axisymmetric deep rolling tool. The robotic assembly (100) includes a plurality of linear arms (102) connected in series between a base end (104) and a working end (106). Adjacent ones of the plurality of arms (102) are connected via a corresponding plurality of multi-axis joints (110) such that the working end (106) is articulated by movement of one or more of the plurality of arms (102) relative to one or more of the plurality of multi-axis joints (110). The tool mount is connected to one of the linear arms (102) or one of the multi-axis joints (110) at the working end of the robotic assembly (100). The non-axisymmetric deep rolling tool is connected to the tool mount, and includes a spring-loaded shaft assembly disposed along a first axis (24). A hub (22) has an upper hub portion (36A) adjacent to the distal end of the spring-loaded shaft assembly aligned with the first axis (24), and a lower hub portion (36B) extending along a second axis (34), forming a nonzero angle relative to the first axis (24). A roller disk (20) is joined to the lower portion (36B) of the hub (22) and is rotatable about the second axis (34) parallel to the second portion (36B) of the hub (22). |
