PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in or connected with Apparatus for Cutting Pipes,
Tubes and the like.
I, JAMES ROBINSON, of Crosland Moor, Huddersfield, in the County of York,
Mill Furnisher, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
The object of my invention, is to construct apparatus for cutting pipes, tubes,
and the like, in such a manner that the said pipes may be cut with greater
facility and accuracy than heretofore.
According to my invention, I employ the ordinary frame, having a screw rod
passing through one end of same, and the other end being formed in a hooked
shape, so as to enable it to embrace the pipe to be cut. Within the hook, two
broad edged friction rollers are provided, being mounted on pins in such a
manner that they project within the hook so as to form a bearing surface for the
pipe. On the end of the screw rod, a cutter is provided, the said cutter being
either a sharpened disk or a straight cutting edge, according to the work to be
performed. In employing the apparatus above described, the friction rollers take
off the friction from the hooked end, thus making the tool much easier to work,
and as the friction is removed the parts do not wear down unevenly as has
hitherto been the case.
If desired the friction rollers may be changed for cutting wheels, and an extra
cutter may be added to the frame if required.

Improvements in or connected with Apparatus for Cutting Pipes,
Tubes and the like.
I, JAMES ROBINSON, of Crosland Moor, Huddersfield, in the County of York,
Mill Furnisher, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what
manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained
in and by the following statement:-
The object of my invention, is to construct apparatus for cutting pipes, tubes
and the like, in such a manner that the said pipes may be cut with greater
facility and accuracy than heretofore.
In order that my invention may be clearly understood, I will proceed to

page_text: describe same with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which similar
letters refer to like parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 is a side elevation, Figure 2 is a front elevation, and Figure 3 is a
plan of an apparatus constructed in accordance with my invention. Figure 4 is a
detail view.
According to my invention, I employ the ordinary frame A having a screw
rod B passing through same, and the said frame A is provided with a hook shaped
portion A', so as to enable it to embrace the pipe to be cut. Within the hook A',
two friction rollers Care provided, being mounted on pins C in such a manner
that they project within the hook so as to form a bearing surface for the pipe.
On the end of the screw rod B, a cutter D is provided, the said cutter being
either a sharpened disc as shewn or a straight cutting tool, according to the work
required to be performed.
In employing the apparatus above described, the friction rollers C take off the
friction from the hooked end A¹, thus allowing the tool or cutter D to work
smoothly and rendering the cutting operation easy to perform; and as the
friction is removed, the parts do not wear down unevenly as has hitherto been
the case.
If desired, the friction rollers C may be removed from the hook shaped
portion A¹ and replaced by cutting wheels of the description shewn at Figure 4,
so as to produce a three-wheel cutting tool; or one cutter may be added to the
frame in place of one of the friction wheels if required.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is :-
1. In apparatus for cutting pipes, tubes and the like, the employment of friction
rollers, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
2. An apparatus for cutting pipes, tubes and the like, consisting of frame A
with its hook shaped portion A' and friction rollers C, in combination with screw
rod B and cutter 1), substantially as herein set forth.
3. In apparatus for cutting pipes, tubes and the like, the employment of friction
rollers which are interchangeable with cutting wheels, substantially as and for the
purpose set forth.
