<p>1,028,128. Sawing. SOC. DITE ROCMA ANSTALT. Jan. 21, 1965 [Feb. 13, 1964], No. 2746/65. Heading B5L. Apparatus for cutting off lengths of board 4, Fig. 1, of synthetic plastic material, or laminated board having a soft inner layer and harder outer layers, comprises means 13, 14 for supporting a board, sawing means 7, 7a, means defining a first path for the sawing means across one side of the board, means defining a second path for the sawing means across the opposite side of the board, the paths lying in a common plane transverse to the board, means 10, 11 for traversing the sawing means 7 over the first path to cut partly into the board from said one side, and means 10a for traversing the sawing means 7a over the second path in a manner delayed with respect to the first traverse to cut the remaining distance through the board. The apparatus may have a single saw for moving first along the first path and then along the second or separate saws, for each path. In the embodiment having two saws, the board 4 is movable along rollers 12, Fig. 1, on a carriage 1, having lower and upper rollers engaging lower and upper rails 2, 2a, 3, 3a. A pair of endless rails 8, 9, 8a, 9a are disposed on each side of the board, each pair of rails acting as guides for a sawing unit consisting of an electric motor 6, 6a for rotating a saw 7, 7a. The units are connected to endless chains 10, 10a which are mounted on sprockets between the rails for moving the units along the rails, the sprockets being driven from motors 11. In operation, the cradle 1 is initially stationary with the sawing units near the lowermost part of their travel, one unit being a little in advance of the other. As the board is advanced to a predetermined position, stops, such as the clamps 13, 14 carried by a feed chain 15 engage stops on the carriage and the clamps are operated to grip the board so that the carriage 1 moves with the board. The motors 6, 6a of the units are energized to rotate the saws and the motors 11 are energized to move the units upwardly along the guide rails. The saw 7 is arranged to lead the saw 7a and cuts through about half the thickness of the board, the saw 7a completing the cut. When the units have reached their upper positions and have completed the cutting of the board, the motors 6, 6a may be switched off, the motors 11 continuing to move the units along the rails to complete a revolution along the rails until they reach their initial position. The clamps 13, 14 are then disengaged from the board and the carriage 1 is returned to its initial starting position by, for example, counterweights. In the embodiment using a single saw unit 55 Fig. 3 (not shown), the unit is guided for movement along endless guide rails 68 having straight portions 58, 59 on each side of the board so that on movement upwardly along the part 58, the saw 57 cuts halfway through the board from one side, and on movement downwardly along the part 59, the saw completes the cut from the other side. In other embodiments the board may be in a horizontal position and the saws may be movable along single tracks, instead of endless, which tracks are movable from outer inoperative positions to inner operative positions.</p> |
