Carving cabinet having protective carving barrier

摘要

A carving cabinet configured to enable carving of the work-piece outside the main machine cabinet, without requiring the work-piece to be completely wrapped in a protective covering. The carving cabinet includes a housing defining an enclosure for operating the carving tool when carving the work-piece. A barrier member is coupled to the housing and is configured to substantially separate the work-piece from the enclosure when carving the work-piece. The barrier member includes a first surface facing toward the enclosure and an opposing second surface facing away from the enclosure. A carving port extends between the first surface and the second surface. The barrier member is configured to allow the work-piece to be disposable adjacent the second surface to enable carving of the work-piece through the carving port.

1. An abrasive blasting cabinet for carving a work-piece with an abrasive blasting tool, the abrasive blasting cabinet comprising:
a housing having:
a front wall;a rear wall in opposed relation to the front wall;a pair of sidewalls extending between the front wall and the rear wall;an attachment panel extending between the front wall and the rear wall and being located between the pair of sidewalls, the attachment panel having an opening formed therein;the housing defining an enclosure for operating the abrasive blasting tool when carving the work-piece, and a vestibule being sized and configured to at least partially receive the workpiece, the vestibule being at least partially defined by the front wall, the rear wall and the attachment panel, the enclosure and the vestibule being at least partially separated by the attachment panel; and a barrier member attachable to the attachment panel so as to substantially extend across the opening in the attachment panel, the barrier member including:
a first surface facing toward the enclosure;an opposing second surface facing away from the enclosure; anda carving port extending between the first surface and the second surface; the barrier member being configured to allow the work-piece to be disposable adjacent the second surface such that the work-piece does not extend through the carving port, and a portion of the work-piece extends across the carving port to enable carving of that portion of the work-piece extending across the carving port through the interaction of the carving tool on the work-piece through abrasive blasting port.
