US 2020/0047294 A1 · BLOCK POSITIONING TOOL

Abstract

A tool for positioning a block on a milling drum having a plurality of welded blocks thereon is provided. The tool includes a longitudinal body. The tool also includes a plurality of arm members extending from the longitudinal body. Each of the plurality of arm members includes a fixture body provided at a distal end thereof. The tool further includes a plurality of fixture assemblies coupled to the fixture body of the corresponding arm member. The plurality of fixture assemblies are adapted to be coupled with corresponding welded blocks of the plurality of welded blocks. Further, at least one of the plurality of arm members and the corresponding fixture assembly coupled to the at least one of the plurality of arm members are adapted to position the block at a desired position on the milling drum relative to the plurality of welded blocks.
