<p>1,215504. Sawing. A. STOLZER. 21 March, 1968 [22 March, 1967], No. 13827/68. Heading B5L. A hack-saw machine comprises a saw blade 2 mounted in an oblique position to the direction of movement of the saw bow 1 and its guide means during its cutting stroke, and an automatic hydraulic control mechanism for pivoting the saw bow so as to lift the blade off the workpiece at the end of the cutting stroke, for lowering it upon the workpiece at the end of the return stroke, and for producing the desired cutting pressure of the saw blade, a torque acting upon the guide means of the saw bow tending to lift the blade at all times off the workpiece and an hydraulic cylinder 12 pivotally connected to the guide means exerts a force thereon in the direction opposite to that of the torque, and the hydraulic cylinder is connected to a control chamber 17 in which a piston 18 is displaceable by a control element 19 connected to and actuated by the driving means 20 of the saw bow so as to vary the volume of the control chamber. The saw bow 1 and guide means 3 therefore are mounted on a pivot 5 on the machine frame 6, the centre of gravity of the bow and guide means acting in the direction 14 to lift the block from the workpiece 9. The hydraulic cylinder acts in the opposite direction to the arrow 14. The cylinder 12 is connected by a conduit to the control chamber 17, the piston 18 of which is movable by a cam 19 on a shaft 20 which effects the reciprocation of the saw bow 1. A second cam 21 on shaft 20 engages a follower on a lever 22 which is mounted on a pivot 23 and engages a pair of levers 24, 25 on pivots 27, 28. Lever 24 actuates a feed pump 37, 38 connected by one-way valves 50, 52 to a tank 51 and the control chamber 17 and cylinder 12. Lever 25 engages an intermediate lever 39 which in turn engages a differential valve 41 which is mounted on a slide member 44 adjustable by a rack-and-pinion 45, 46 and has a plunger 42 engaging a stationary cam 43. The pivots 27, 28 are mounted on a slide member 26 movable in the direction of the arrows 36 by an arm 29 which is mounted on a pivot 30 on the guide means 3 and is integral with a lever 31 having a follower 32 engaging a cam 33 on the frame 6. In operation, the reciprocation of piston 18 in control chamber 17 lifts and lowers the saw blade in time with reciprocation of the saw blade and controls the pressure applied by the blade 4 to the workpiece. During the return stroke, the feed pump 37, 38 is actuated by cam 21 to pump a predetermined amount of fluid into cylinder 12 so that at the start of each cutting stroke, the blade is lowered a predetermined amount. The feed pump may also be actuated by the rocking of lever 29 reciprocating slide member 26, the lever being rocked by cam 33 engaging follower 32. Different cams 33 according to the crosssection of the workpiece may be provided to vary the feed. The differential valve 41 is adjustable to control the pressure with which the saw blade engages the workpiece.</p> |
