COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in or connected with Machinery or Tools for Turning,
Shaping, Planing or the like.
I, EDWARD GRIFFITH BREWER, of 33 Chancery Lane in the County of London,
and 30 East Parade, Leeds, in the County of York, Fellow of the Chartered
Institute of Patent Agents, do hereby declare the nature of this invention, and in
what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascer-
tained in and by the following statement, (which invention has been communicated
to me from abroad by Karl August Windmüller, of Chemnitz in the Empire of
Germany):-
--
This invention relates to improvements in or connected with machinery or tools,
not only to be used for the turning of shafts, flanges, spheres, cones, wheels, hollow
channels, screw-cutting and so forth, but also for other purposes, as the cutting of
tooth-wheels, planing, shaping, and so forth.
The invention will be readily understood by reference to the accompanying
drawing,
Fig. 1 shewing in front elevation so much of a machine constructed according to
this invention as will be necessary to explain same.
Fig. 2 is a transverse vertical section of same, and
Figs. 3, 4, and 5 are similar views shewing different positions and fittings.
Similar letters of reference refer to like parts in all the figures.
S is a supporting saddle capable of being slidden upon the carriage or bed M,
and is arranged as shewn in Figs. 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
On the slide part G resting on the carriage M there is, as shewn in Figs. 1 and 2,
on one side a support or socket T, which when turning and the like processes are
being performed, serves for the reception of the tool-holder, and is so arranged
that the socket T can be moved, round the point at which it is hinged to the slide
part G, towards the carriage M in order to be able to give the axis of the socket
or bearing T, in which the tool holder u revolves, the requisite direction. The
screw (Figs. 1 and 2) is capable of being moved in the slot, and serves to keep
the socket T fast in its required position.
If the teeth of wheels are to be planed or cut, or other work of a like nature is
to be effected, then a socket V arranged upon the other side of the slide part G
serves for the reception of the tool, thus the socket T may carry the wheel or part
to be operated upon, whilst the socket V serves for the reception of the tool-holder.
The socket V can also be placed revolvably towards the carriage M in the same
way as T.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that
what I claim is :-
In machinery or tools for turning, shaping, planing or the like, the carrying and
supporting saddle consisting of a sliding part G capable of being traversed on the
carriage M, the said sliding part G carrying supports or sockets T and V, one or
both of which is or are revolvable or adjustable towards the carriage M, all con-
structed and acting substantially as and for the purposes herein described and
illustrated with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Dated this 20th day of June 1892.
