CONTROL DEVICE FOR BLADES SHARPENING

摘要

Device for controlling the sharpening state of a blade (2) having a cutting edge (20) delimited by two sides (21, 22) converging towards a plane (X) that contains the cutting edge itself. The device comprises two control surfaces each of which is in contact with a corresponding side (21, 22) of the cutting edge (20) and is connected with a transducer (R4), which produces an electrical displacement signal (S4) proportional to a displacement of the control surface with respect to said plane (X). Furthermore, the device comprises a processing unit (E) that receives said displacement signals (S4) and compares them, emitting an error signal if the comparison produces a value that exceeds a predetermined limit. The control surfaces are the surfaces that delimit an external groove (40) of a roller (4) that is free to translate along an axis (A4) perpendicular to said plane (X) and spaced from the blade (2) by an amount such that said cutting edge (20) passes in said groove (40).

主权项

1. A device for controlling a sharpening state of a blade having a cutting edge delimited by two sides converging towards a plane that contains the cutting edge, the device comprising:
two control surfaces, each of said two control surfaces being in contact with a corresponding side of said cutting edge and each of said two control surfaces being connected with a transducer, which produces an electrical displacement signal proportional to a displacement of the control surface with respect to said plane to provide at least a plurality of displacement signals; a programmable electronic unit that receives said displacement signals and compares said displacement signals, said programmable electronic unit emitting an error signal if a comparison of said displacement signals produces a value that exceeds a predetermined limit, said two control surfaces being surfaces that delimit an external groove of a roller that is free to translate along an axis perpendicular to said plane and spaced from the blade by an amount such that said cutting edge passes in said groove.
