Abstract
A shaping machine wherein either a work or a tool is a rod-like member extending along a straight center line while the other is a member having a hole capable of being fitted on the rod-like member and wherein the work is shaped while the member having the hole passes through the rod-like member from one end toward the other end of the rod-like member. The shaping machine comprises a feed mechanism for causing relative movement of the rod-like member and the member having the hole to each other along the center line of the rod-like member, a center line of the feed mechanism being coincident with the center line of the rod-like member.
Claims8
A shaping machine wherein either a work or a tool is a rod-like member extending along a straight center line while the other is a member having a hole capable of being fitted on the rod-like member, and wherein the work is shaped while the member having the hole moves alone the rod-like member from one end toward the other end of the rod-like member, comprising a feed mechanism for causing relative movement of the rod-like member and the member having the hole to each other along the center line of the rod-like member, a center line of the feed mechanism being coincident with the center line of the rod-like member, means for releasably securing the rod-like member at both its ends, respectively, the feed mechanism including means for feeding the member having the hole along the stationary rod-like member from said one end toward said other end of the rod-like member, the feeding means including a pipe for accommodating the rod-like member.
A broaching machine comprising:
- an elongate broach cutter;
- and
- a feed mechanism for feeding a work having a hole to be broached by the broach cutter, along the broach cutter such that the work passes over the broach cutter from one end toward the other end of the broach cutter;
- a center line of the feed mechanism being coincident with a center line of the broach cutter;
- and
- wherein the feed mechanism includes a pipe for accommodating the broach cutter.
