Abstract
A holding device for fastening bar cutters in order for the cutting edges thereof to be coated, wherein the fastening is configured in such a way that a plurality of bar cutters can be arranged in a row such that the cutting faces and tips thereof have the same orientation, and the holding device includes a screen which at least partially protects the cutting faces from the coating, wherein, with bar cutters arranged in a row in the manner described, the top edge of the screen projects beyond the knife tips in such a way that no knife tips protrude.
Claims19
An assembly comprising:
- a holding device;
- and
- a plurality of bar cutters, each bar cutter having a cutting face, a cutting edge, and a blade tip,
- wherein the plurality of bar cutters are fastened to the holding device for coating the cutting edges thereof,
- wherein the plurality of bar cutters are fastened in such a way that the plurality of bar cutters are arranged in rows, each row having multiple bar cutters of the plurality of bar cutters and being parallel to the other rows,
- wherein for each row, the multiple bar cutters of the row are aligned parallel to each other such that their blade tips are directed in the same direction,
- wherein the holding device comprises an elongated screen which extends parallel to one of the rows and at least partially protects the multiple bar cutters of the one of the rows from the coating,
- wherein the elongated screen extends in the direction of the blade tips of the one of the rows in such a way that the elongated screen extends past the blade tips of the one of the rows and no blade tips of the one of the rows protrude beyond the elongated screen, and
- wherein the elongated screen completely covers each cutting face of the one of the rows in a direction normal to the cutting face.

A holding device comprising:
- a plurality of bar cutters,
- a holder to which the bar cutters are attached such that cutting faces and tips of several bar cutters of the plurality of bar cutters have the same orientation, and
- a screen that at least partially protects the cutting faces of the several bar cutters from being coated, wherein
- the several bar cutters and the screen are aligned such that the screen is spaced from the cutting faces of the several bar cutters and projects form the tips of the several bar cutters such that no tips of the several bar cutters project past the screen, and
- wherein the screen completely covers each cutting face of the several bar cutters in a direction normal to the cutting face.

An assembly comprising:
- a holding device that includes a main body, the main body being an elongated body that extends longitudinally along a vertical axis and includes a top end and a bottom end;
- and
- a plurality of bar cutters, each bar cutter having a cutting face, a cutting edge, and a blade tip,
- wherein the plurality of bar cutters are fastened to the holding device for coating the cutting edges thereof,
- wherein the plurality of bar cutters are fastened in such a way that the plurality of bar cutters are arranged in rows, each row having multiple bar cutters of the plurality of bar cutters and being parallel to the other rows,
- wherein for each row, the multiple bar cutters of the row are aligned parallel to each other such that their blade tips are directed in the same direction,
- wherein the holding device comprises an elongated screen which extends parallel to one of the rows and at least partially protects the multiple bar cutters of the one of the rows from the coating,
- wherein the elongated screen extends in the direction of the blade tips of the one of the rows in such a way that the elongated screen extends past the blade tips of the one of the rows and no blade tips of the one of the rows protrude beyond the elongated screen, and
- wherein the elongated screen is adjustably coupled via an upper magnetic strip provided at the top end of the main body and a lower magnetic strip provided at the bottom end of the main body.
