Description: |
Abstract:
My invention relates to machines for cutting off wire into pieces of any length, and it is designed more particularly to be used in the manufacture of hoot-calks, where the calk is forged on the end of a steel wire and then cut off at the proper point. It consists of two eccentric cutters with their edges in line, and such a distance apart that when they revolve a certain amount their edges will come together, cutting the wire which is placed between them.
Claim:
In a wire-cutting machine, the combination of the two eccentric cutters A A, hung on arbors A' A', their cutting-edges in line with each other, and so adjusted that when revolved in the same direction their edges will come together and separate at regular intervals. |
