Description: |
| Abstract:
The speed ratios of the movements of the two parts of a compound slide in a machine for grinding tools, milling-cutters, reamers, taps, saws, worm hobs, counterbores, &c. are made interchangeable in order to reduce the necessary adjustment of the work, so that in operating upon two faces at an angle to one another, what is the quicker or longitudinal movement to feed the work across the grinder in operating upon one face becomes the slower or transverse movement to adjust the depth of the cut in operating on the other face, and vice versa. The variable gear may only be used to obtain different speeds in one direction. Each portion of the slide is operated by a pinion gearing into a rack on the slide, the pinion being either driven directly from the hand-wheel K, or more slowly from another hand-wheel through a worm M and worm-wheel L, or other gearing, which may be clutched to the shaft J. The worm-wheel L is mounted on a sleeve L<1> loose on the shaft and is clutched against a conical shoulder P on the shaft by a nut S, working on the screwed end J<1> of the spindle which can slide through the hand-wheel K for the purpose: The angular motion of the swiveling plate carrying the work is reduced by this device. |
