SHEAR FRAME MOUNTING AND POSITIONING MECHANISM

摘要

A shear frame mounting and positioning mechanism for linearly reciprocal shear blades in which the shear frame can be adjusted in a horizontal plane in a direction parallel to and perpendicular to the direction of travel of the shear blades. Additionally, the shear frame is tiltable in a vertical plane which is parallel to the direction of movement of the shear blades. A mechanism is provided for locking the shear frame under the feeder spout, the mechanism including means for adjusting the shear frame in a direction perpendicular to the direction of movement of the shear blades. The shear frame can be swung between a position under the feeder spout to a position out from underneath the feeder spout and also raised and lowered in a vertical direction.
