Abstract
A lathe cutting tool is provided for cutting helix grooves into rubber covered rolls for use in polishing of stainless steel strip or the like. This cutting tool consists of a shaft having a cutting blade means mounted at one end thereof. A traction wheel is provided in parallel relationship with the cutting means for engaging the surface of the rubber covered roll, and means are provided for mounting the traction wheel for rotation and parallel to the cutting blade means. Bracket means are provided for mounting said shaft to a lathe for movement therealong so that the cutting tool can be used to cut helix grooves in a rubber covered roll as desired.
Claims3
A lathe cutting tool mountable on a lathe assembly for cutting helix grooves into a rubber covered roll, comprising:
- a shaft;
- cutting blade means;
- means for mounting the cutting blade means on one end of the shaft;
- first bracket means slidably mounted on the shaft, the first bracket means having a bar extending therefrom perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shaft;
- second bracket means slidably mounted on the bar;
- a traction wheel;
- means for mounting the traction wheel for rotation on the second bracket means, the traction wheel lying in a plane parallel to the longitudinal axis of the cutting blade means;
- and
- mounting means for slidably mounting the shaft to the lathe assembly, the shaft being rotatable about its longitudinal axis within the mounting means to adjust the angle of the traction wheel and cutting blade means relative to the roll so as to vary the angle of the helix grooves being cut.
