Abstract
Abstract A mounting for a pair of boring tool cutting bits, the mounting being such that the two cutting bits, when present, project beyond a forward end of a mounting member and are displaced through 180° relative to each other. Each of the tool cutting bits is mounted on a respective cutting bit carrier which is radially adjustable relative to and guided on teeth on the mounting member. The teeth extend in the direction of adjustment at right angles to the rotary axis of the mounting member and are parallel. The cutting bit carrier is also adjustable radially by means of an adjusting screw engaging the carrier and extending in the direction of the teeth. The teeth of the two cutting bit cariers is provided on the forward face of the mounting member in a common radial plane with continuous teeth running across the whole breadth of the forward face. The cutting bit carriers have similar teeth on their rear ends facing towards the forward face. The clamping screws are arranged parallel to the rotary axis.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
225 words
A mounting for a pair of boring tool cutting bits, the mounting being such that the two cutting bits, when present, project beyond a forward end of a mounting member and are displaced through 180° relative to each other, each being mounted on a respective cutting bit carrier which is radially adjustable relative to and guided on a toothing on the mounting member, the said toothing extending in the direction of adjustment at right angles to the rotary axis of the mounting member and having parallel teeth, by means of a similar toothing and which can be fixed relative to the mounting member by means of a clamping screw passing through an oblong hole in the cutting bit carrier and engaging with the mounting member, there also being provided for the radial adjustment of the cutting bit carrier, in each case, an adjusting screw engaging with the carrier and extending in the direction of the toothing, and wherein the toothing for the two cutting bit carriers is provided on the forward face of the mounting member in a common radial plane with continuous teeth running across the whole breadth of the forward face, and the cutting bit carriers have a similar toothing on their rear ends facing towards the said forward face, and that the clamping screws are arranged parallel to the said rotary axis.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
225 words
A mounting for a pair of boring tool cutting bits, the mounting being such that the two cutting bits, when present, project beyond a forward end of a mounting member and are displaced through 180° relative to each other, each being mounted on a respective cutting bit carrier which is radially adjustable relative to and guided on a toothing on the mounting member, the said toothing extending in the direction of adjustment at right angles to the rotary axis of the mounting member and having parallel teeth, by means of a similar toothing and which can be fixed relative to the mounting member by means of a clamping screw passing through an oblong hole in the cutting bit carrier and engaging with the mounting member, there also being provided for the radial adjustment of the cutting bit carrier, in each case, an adjusting screw engaging with the carrier and extending in the direction of the toothing, and wherein the toothing for the two cutting bit carriers is provided on the forward face of the mounting member in a common radial plane with continuous teeth running across the whole breadth of the forward face, and the cutting bit carriers have a similar toothing on their rear ends facing towards the said forward face, and that the clamping screws are arranged parallel to the said rotary axis.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
57 words
A mounting according to claim 1, wherein the toothing of the mounting member covers the whole forward face of the bore rod and the height of each cutting bit carrier at right angles to the cutting surface of the cutting bit is about half the diameter of the mounting member, the mounting member being of circular cross-section.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
21 words
A mounting according to claim 2, wherein the cutting bit carriers do not overlap each other in their direction of adjustment.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
23 words
A mounting according to claim 3, wherein the cutting bit carriers are designed to be plane at their surfaces which face each other.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
20 words
A mounting according to claim 4, wherein the cutting bit carriers make contact with their surfaces which face each other.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
61 words
A mounting according to claim 1, wherein a plate is provided between a head on each clamping screw and the respective cutting bit carrier, the said plate being a common clamping plate extending parallel to the direction of adjustment and applied against a supporting surface of each cutting bit carrier which extends parallel to the front face of the mounting member.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
71 words
A mounting according to claim 6, wherein the supporting surface of each cutting bit carrier is set back axially by about the thickness of the clamping plate relative to the effective cutting edge of the cutting bit, when present, and the cutting bit carrier has an extension neighbouring on the supporting surface, which projects similarly from the supporting surface in the axial direction and which carries the cutting bit when present.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
51 words
A mounting according to claim 7, wherein a female screw thread to accept the adjusting screw is provided in the clamping plate for each cutting bit carrier and extends parallel to the direction of adjustment, the external end of said screw being supported on a counter surface of the said extension.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
57 words
A mounting according to claim 8, wherein the clamping surfaces of the clamping plate which are applied against the supporting surfaces are designed to be slightly concave or somewhat cut away at the centre so that the clamping plate is substantially applied against the supporting surfaces of the cutting bit carriers by means of its outer ends.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
30 words
A mounting according to claim 1, wherein the centre of one tip or of the one root of a tooth is arranged on a diametrical line of the mounting member.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
12 words
A mounting according to claim 1, wherein the toothings are V-shaped toothings.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
14 words
A mounting according to claim 1, wherein the mounting member is a bore rod.
