Abstract
A machine for cutting or beveling a pipe. A cutter unit rotates around the pipe while cutting any surface of the pipe after gripping and fixing the pipe. The machine includes: a main body which a pipe passes through the center portion thereof to be fixed; and a cutter unit coupled to the main body unit rotates around the fixed pipe to cut or bevel the pipe. The cutter unit may have a rotating unit on one side to pull the cutter unit aside and a locking unit on the other side to restrain or release the cutter unit. An entry control unit operating the cutter unit includes: a lever gear-engaged with an outer side surface of an entry control plate; and a clutch formed on a rotation shaft of the lever such that the restraint is released when the lever is lifted or pressed in the axial direction.
Claims7
A pipe cutting and beveling machine comprising:
- a main body portion having a central portion through which a pipe passes so as to be fixed;
- a cutter unit coupled to the main body portion and configured to cut or bevel the pipe via a cutting blade while the cutting unit is orbiting around the fixed pipe;
- an entry adjustment plate coupled to the cutter unit and configured such that the entry adjustment plate and the cutter unit move toward and retreat from a portion of the pipe at which the cutting blade is configured to cut the pipe, which moving and retreating are movements along a path extending in a direction;
- and
- an entry control unit configured to perform the moving of the entry adjustment plate,
- wherein the cutter unit is provided with a pivot unit on one side thereof such that the cutter unit is pivoted about a pivot axis of the pivot unit back and forth along a path extending in a direction different from the direction of movement of the entry adjustment plate, and the cutter unit is provided with a lock unit on a side of the cutter unit that is opposite the pivot axis such that the pivoting of the cutter unit about the pivot axis is configured to pivot a portion of the lock unit that is mounted on the cutter unit into a locked position at which the lock unit restrains the pivoting of the cutter unit, and to pivot the portion of the lock unit away from the locked position when the lock unit releases the pivoting of the cutter unit.
