Abstract
A cutting device for elongated objects, especially for wire, having a cutting element which is movable relative to a shearing element by means of a drive. The cutting element is of disk-shaped configuration and its periphery is configured, at least in segments, as a cutter. The cutting element is coupled to the drive in such a way that different segments of the cutter for the execution of a respective cut, can be moved one after the other past the shearing element.
Claims15
A cutting device for elongated objects comprising:
- a shearing element;
- an eccentrically driven shaft;
- a cutting element having a circular, disk-shaped configuration, said cutting element mounted for free rotation on said eccentrically driven shaft, said eccentrically driven shaft extending centrally and perpendicularly through said cutting element and moves said cutting element along a cutting plane relative to said shearing element, said cutting element having an outer periphery and a cutter extending around said outer periphery, the cutter being configured in segments;
- and drive means driving said cutting element for rotation about said eccentrically driven shaft such that a respective segment of the cutter, for an execution of a cut, is moved past said shearing element, and successive segments of said cutting element, for the execution of successive cuts, are moved one after another past the shearing element.
