1,138,500. Planing. COMMISSARIAT A L'ENERGIE ATOMIQUE. 10 June, 1966 [30 June, 1965], No. 26065/66. Heading B3L. Helical internal grooves 58, Fig. 4, are machined in the bore of a tube, to thus provide helical fins 59, by clamping the tube 9 in two chucks 5, 6, Fig. 1, inserting a tool spindle 16 having cutting tools 39 mounted therein, into the tube, adjusting the tools radially to provide the depth of cut, moving the spindle axially in the opposite direction to arrow C, and simultaneously moving the tube angularly about its axis. The apparatus for carrying out the machining comprises the chucks 5, 6, connected by a tube 11, a cam path 30, Fig. 2, on the tube 11, a follower 29 mounted on a block 28 secured to a rod 21, and the tool spindle 16. Spindle 16 and rod 21 are connected to a thrust-plate 20, and spindle 16 has a slot 34, Fig. 4, in which a tool carrier 35 can be adjusted radially, and in which a blade 36 can slide axially, the blade having projections 49 which co-operate with two sloping grooves 48, 48a, in carrier 35, Fig. 1. A rod 44 abuts blade 36 at one end, and a cam 50 at the other end, the cam being keyed to a shaft 51, Fig. 2, on which is also keyed a ratchet wheel 52, which can be actuated by a pawl 53. In operation, force is applied to thrust-plate 20, and spindle 16 and rod 21 move in the direction of arrow C, with no cutting taking place. A ramp 56 engages a roller 55 so as to lift pawl 53 into engagement with ratchet wheel 52. Cam 50 is rotated and pushes rod 44 so that blade 36 is moved axially, and due to the grooves 48, 48a, the tool carrier 35 is moved radially, to thus set the depth of cut. The direction of movement of plate 20 is reversed, the pawl and ratchet 53, 52 is released, and the tool spindle moves through the tube to thus cut grooves in the latter, which grooves are helical in form due to the movement of tube 11 in the direction of arrow (B), Fig. 3 (not shown), provided by the engagement of projection 29 in cam path 30, Fig. 2. Tube 11 may have left and right hand cam paths which engage with left and right hand projections so as to, produce grooves of opposite hands. |
