Abstract
Abstract A device for advancing rod-shaped material in a cutting machine, in which ring the cutting operation the material is held by at least one pair of clamping jaws that are arranged in front of the cutting plane in the material advance direction and by a pair of advancing jaws which are arranged after the cutting plane and can be displaced in the material advance direction, of which at least one advancing jaw can be moved transversely to the material advance direction for the purpose of clamping the material and by means of which the workpiece material can be displaced by an amount corresponding to the portion to be cut off and by means of which the severed material can be removed. The arrangement is such that the transversely movable advancing jaw can be displaced beyond the other advancing jaw and that the other advancing jaw can be moved out the corresponding lateral displacement path of the severed material for disposal of the cut piece of material.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
239 words
Device for advancing a workpiece of material to a cutting station in a cutting machine including a saw means for cutting a desired length of material, advancing the material to a deposition station and discharging a cut piece of material at the deposition station; which comprises a first table for supporting the material during the cutting operation, at least one pair of clamping jaws that can be opened and closed for holding the material during cutting, said at least one pair of clamping jaws being arranged in front of a cutting plane in the material advance direction, feed means for advancing the workpiece of material to its cutting position when said at least one pair of claimping jaws are open, first and second advancing jaws arranged in a material advance direction relative to said clamping jaws, movable means for transversely moving said first advancing jaw for the purpose of opening and closing upon a cut piece of material, support means for moving said advancing jaws and the cut piece of material in the material advance direction to a deposition station, adjustable means for moving said second advancing jaw out of a path in the advancing direction of the material, and said movable means advances transversely to move said first advancing jaw beyond the adjusted position of said second advancing jaw to displace the cut piece of material transverse to the advance direction of the material at said deposition station.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
17 words
Device according to claim 1, in which said second advancing jaw is displaceably arranged on vertical guides.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
Device according to claim 1, in which said second advancing jaw can be swivelled about an axis arranged transversely with respect to the material advance direction.
