Abstract
A machine for the repair of alloy-tipped saw blades is provided. According to the invention, a damaged circular saw blade can be completely repaired at one location. The saw blade is clamped in the machine. Brazing and grinding tools are positioned for repair of the clamped saw blades.
Claims8
A machine for repairing hard-alloy-tipped saw blades having plates brazed on prepared plate seats of a saw blade, said machine comprising:
- (a) a frame;
- (b) a saw blade support on said frame;
- (c) a pair of clamping jaws on said frame for holding said saw blade seated on said saw blade support;
- (d) at least two flank-grinding tools for simultaneously grinding both flanks of one of said plates;
- (e) at least two radial guides;
- (f) at least two radial slides, one each of said radial slides carried respectively on each said radial guide;
- (g) each of said flank-grinding tools being arranged respectively on one of said radial slides;
- (h) each said radial guide being adapted for pivoting adjustment out of a normal position wherein the radial guide extends parallel to a saw blade seated on said saw blade support and about a pivot shaft disposed at right angles to the radial guide and parallel to the saw blade;
- (i) at least two transverse slides, each said transverse slide being disposed, respectively, on said radial slides, each transverse slide being displaceable at right angles to the radial guide and its pivot shaft, and a rotary shaft on said transverse slide, said rotary shaft being parallel to the corresponding pivot shaft, each said flank-grinding tool being adapted for rotary adjustment on said rotary shaft between a working position for face grinding and a work position for peripheral grinding of said plates.

- (f) said pair of clamping jaws and said at least two flank-grinding tools being spaced from said brazing tool;
- (g) an intermediate member for connecting together said at least two flank-grinding tools, said intermediate member being displaceable in the plane of a saw blade seated on said saw blade support, and a control drive for moving said intermediate member;
- (h) at least two radial guides;
- (i) at least two radial slides, one each of said radial slides carried respectively on each said radial guide, said radial slides being connected to said intermediate member;
- (j) each of said flank-grinding tools being arranged respectively on each of said radial slides;
- and
- (k) each said radial guide being adapted for pivoting adjustment out of a normal position wherein the radial guide extends parallel to a saw blade seated on said saw blade support and about a pivot shaft disposed at right angles to the radial guide and parallel to the saw blade;
- and
- (l) at least two transverse slides, each said transverse slide being disposed, respectively, on said radial slides, each said transverse slide being displaceable at right angles to the radial guide and its pivot shaft, and a rotary shaft on said transverse slide, said rotary shaft being parallel to the corresponding pivot shaft, each said flank-grinding tool being adapted for rotary adjustment on said rotary shaft between a working position for face grinding and a work position for peripheral grinding of said plates.
