Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 238 words
A device for cutting tubular work pieces and comprising in combination a clamping member for surrounding and clamping the work piece, said clamping member having two semi-cylinderical halves with cylindrical inner surfaces capable of pressing against the outer surface of the work piece in the operation position of said clamping member, said clamping member halves being pivotally interconnected at one of their corresponding edges, means for clamping said halves together at the opposite edges thereof, said halves having radially extending flange portions at one end, the front side of said flange portions having an undercut circular groove, a curved tool carrier having an extension in the circumferential direction of the work piece smaller than each of said halves of the clamping member and having a guide list portion running in said undercut groove, a radially extending tool block secured to said tool carrier, a cutter bit, means for moving said cutter bit along said tool block substantially towards the center of the work piece, each of said semi-cylindrical halves being divided into an outer piece and an insert piece which is detachably mounted in said halves for adapting the device to work with smaller diameter than the inner diameter of said outer piece,at least the upper one of said insert pieces having a guiding pin extending radially through an opening in the outer piece, and said guide pin is releaseabLy lockable at the side of said outer piece.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 238 words
A device for cutting tubular work pieces and comprising in combination a clamping member for surrounding and clamping the work piece, said clamping member having two semi-cylinderical halves with cylindrical inner surfaces capable of pressing against the outer surface of the work piece in the operation position of said clamping member, said clamping member halves being pivotally interconnected at one of their corresponding edges, means for clamping said halves together at the opposite edges thereof, said halves having radially extending flange portions at one end, the front side of said flange portions having an undercut circular groove, a curved tool carrier having an extension in the circumferential direction of the work piece smaller than each of said halves of the clamping member and having a guide list portion running in said undercut groove, a radially extending tool block secured to said tool carrier, a cutter bit, means for moving said cutter bit along said tool block substantially towards the center of the work piece, each of said semi-cylindrical halves being divided into an outer piece and an insert piece which is detachably mounted in said halves for adapting the device to work with smaller diameter than the inner diameter of said outer piece,at least the upper one of said insert pieces having a guiding pin extending radially through an opening in the outer piece, and said guide pin is releaseabLy lockable at the side of said outer piece.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 46 words
A device as claimed in claim 1 wherein the means for locking said guide pin consists of a spring which is pressed by its spring action against an angled side of a portion of said guide pin projecting in the outer piece of said clamping half.
