Embodiment Construction

[0020] This subject provides a C-tube cutter that can be used to cut a range of different sizes of tube, pipe or other workpiece. Although the terms "pipe" or "pipe" are generally used herein, it should be understood that the subject cutter can be used to cut or severe various other types of workpieces. In many embodiments, the cutter utilizes a size index assembly that selectively accommodates multiple discrete sizes of tubing. The size index assembly can be quickly and easily adjusted so that the cutter can receive and cut different size tubes.

[0021] In some embodiments, the pipe cutter has a selectively positionable idler housing. Typically, the roller housings can be positioned radially. The roller housing may be selectively locked in one of a plurality of discrete predetermined positions by a movable trigger. Specifically, in many forms of cutters, the trigger is slidable along an arcuate slot provided in the housing and biased toward a locked position. When the tr...

Abstract

A C-type tubing cutter is described that accommodates and cuts a range of tubing or workpiece sizes. The cutter includes a radially positionable roller carriage that can be selectively positioned in one of several predetermined positions corresponding to different tubing sizes. The cutter also includes a trigger that can be engaged with the roller carriage to lock the carriage in a desired position. Certain versions of the cutters also utilize arcuate slots or tracks along which a cutter wheel is positionable.

Description

technical field [0001] This topic concerns C-shaped pipe cutters that accommodate a range of pipe sizes Background technique [0002] Various handheld C-tube cutters are known in the art. Many cutters are fixed size cutters, limited to one size of pipe or tubing for use. However, some multi-size pipe cutters have been proposed. [0003] Certain known multi-size C-shaped pipe cutters utilize radial positioning rollers for positioning according to the diameter of the pipe to be cut. While satisfactory in many respects, accommodating different tube sizes by adjusting such rollers is time consuming and potentially tedious. Accordingly, there is a need for a cutter that can accommodate a range of tube sizes and that can be quickly and easily configured to change between specific sizes within the range. Contents of the invention [0004] Difficulties and shortcomings associated with previous approaches are addressed in this topic, as described below. [0005] In one aspect,...
