Problems solved by technology

Such pinch points typically cause disabling injuries to the fingers, hands and / or arms of the operator or others
There is a risk that the operator's palm, fingers, or arm could be caught in the tube lathe and injured
[0006] Additionally, whenever the operator repositions the tool slide, the operator must also reposition the jack pin assembly on the turret, which can be time consuming, inconvenient, and if inadvertently repositioned during repositioning of the jack pin assembly It is even dangerous to start a pipe lathe
In addition, the operator is often exposed to the gear connection between the drive gear and the ring gear, which is usually located outside the body of the pipe lathe, creating additional hazards for the operator that can cause disabling injuries

Embodiment Construction

[0037] A better understanding of the various embodiments of the invention may be obtained from the following description read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which like reference numerals refer to like elements.

[0038] A first exemplary embodiment of a rotary machining apparatus including a tube lathe 100 is shown in figure 1 middle. Tube lathe 100 includes a support housing 102, a headstock 104, and one or more bearing assemblies 106 (shown in FIG. Figure 7 ), and a drive module 135 and a gearbox 147 operatively connected to the headstock 104 to rotate the headstock 104 . The support housing 102 and headstock 104 may be segmented (eg, split into two or more pieces) and designed to be coupled together to form a complete assembly around a workpiece (eg, a tube) to be machined.

[0039]The workpiece is supported concentrically with respect to the axis of rotation 108 of the headstock 104 by the tube lathe 100 . The tube lathe 100 may be split diametricall...

Abstract

A rotating machining device for machining a work piece includes a support housing adapted to be mounted on the work piece and a headstock rotatably mounted on the support housing. At least one tool module is mounted to the headstock and includes a tool feed system having a tool holder and a feed mechanism operatively connected to the tool holder. A tripper pin assembly is mounted on the support housing and arranged to collide with the feed mechanism for advancement of the tool holder relative to the work piece. The feed mechanism collides with the tripper pin assembly at a collision point radially positioned inside of an outer diameter of the headstock.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a tool feed system for a rotary machining device. Background technique [0002] A clamshell lathe is used in an industrial setting to machine or cut a portion of a generally cylindrical tube or pipe. These lathes may include first and second semicircular halves designed to fit together to encircle the tube to be cut or machined. The resulting annular assembly includes a retainer portion that becomes clamped to the pipe and an adjoining rotatable portion that includes a ring gear attached to the retainer portion for rotation about the concentrically exposed pipe. [0003] A drive system including an electric motor is operatively coupled to the assembly and includes a drive gear designed to mesh with a ring gear operatively connected to the rotatable portion of the lathe. A tool slide may be mounted on said rotatable part and adapted to hold a tool head for milling or cutting pipe. The tool slide may include a feed mechanism c...
