        Description: |  
| "My improvement relates to the device for giving to the head-stocks the required vertical adjustments; and it consists in supporting the head-stocks in their vertical position by a vertical screw, each head-stock being supported on a screw-threaded collar or nut on the screw, said collar forming the hub of a bevel-wheel and turning in an ear or lug of the head-stock or adjustable plate in which the cutter-shaft has bearing. The construction is such that the head-stocks are raised and lowered simultaneously by the turning of the vertical supporting-screw, and each of the head-stocks has independent vertical adjustment by the turning of its supporting-nut upon the screw. The bevel-wheel nut is turned by a bevel-wheel on a spindle to whose end a winch is placed." |
