Abstract
A plane with an interchangeable iron that can be displaced at an angle to the contact surface of the plane frame, along the direction in which the plane travels. The iron is also displaceable on each side of a midposition parallel to the contact surface of the plane and transversely with respect to the direction in which the plane travels. The iron is secured in a predetermined position by a support that has a holder against which the iron rests. A support component can be displaced transversely on a frame. The holder is mounted on the support component, so that it can be displaced longitudinally and transversely with respect to the bottom contact surface of the plane.

Plane comprising:
- a frame with a plane base contact surface;
- an interchangeable iron displaceable at an angle to the contact surface of said frame along a direction in which the plane travels and on each side of a midposition parallel to said contact surface and transversely with respect to a direction in which the plane travels;
- a support for securing said interchangeable iron in a predetermied position;
- said support comprising a compound slide with a holder, said iron resting fixedly against said holder;
- said compound slide having a support component displaceable transversely on said frame;
- said holder being mounted on said support component for displacement inclined to said contact surface in longitudinal direction of motion of the plane, said support component being displaceable on said frame parallel to said contact surface and perpendicular to longitudinal displacement of said iron, said iron being displaceable on both sides from a midposition by at least an amount so that a cutting end of said iron can be displaced at least to each outer surface of a neighboring plane side wall.
