Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a shaping device, particularly for shaping substantially elongated elements (see e.g. DE 2 106 559 A ).
  • the invention concerns a shaping device of the above kind, studied and realised particularly for working the surface of elements, preferably comprised of wood, having different dimensions, under maximum safety and precision conditions.
  • splines i.e. those wood elements, with a substantially double dove tail shape, that are used since some years for coupling the elements comprising a frame.
  • frame-maker For the application of these splines, frame-maker must realise, in correspondence of the coupling corners, seats, within which the splines must be housed. Furthermore, frame-maker must procure with splines from the manufacturer, storing a sufficient number of already ready splines.
  • a further problem felt in the planing mill field is that of being able to reduce the amount of wood scraps, that could be reduced by their recycling in the precision working. It would also be advantageous for costs and preservation of nature.
  • the above could be for example applied to the realisation of splines that can be obtained by small wood pieces, also avoiding the needing of procuring with a stock of products, as already said in the above.
  • Object of the present invention is that of suggesting a device that can guarantee very precise and safe wood shaping operations.
  • Another object of the present invention is that of suggesting a device that can be realised by low manufacturing costs.
  • a further object of the present invention is that of allowing the realisation a device that can be used in a flexible way, being easily adaptable to the dimensions of wood parts to be worked on.
  • device 1 comprises a horizontal basis 2, for example having a substantially square shape and two feet 21 on the corners of said horizontal basis 2, it is possible observing vertical supports 22, on which the upper base 23 is placed.
  • Said upper basis 23 provides a substantially central hole 231.
  • Said hole 231 is necessary to apply a working tool 3 (in figures 1 and 2 two different kind of tools are shown, particularly an electro milling machine).
  • Said electro milling machine 3 can be any kind already available on the market. More particularly, the one shown in figure 2 provides a milling cutting tip 31, a support structure 32 and coupling means 33, coupled with the upper base 23. Furthermore, handles 34 are provided.
  • An assembly 4 is placed between the lower base 2 and the upper base 23, comprising adjustment elements for the shaping device 1 that will be described in greater detail in the following with reference to figures 3 and 4.
  • Said assembly 4 provides a wheel 41 operating on a worm screw 42, and having a half left-handed threading and a half right-handed threading.
  • Said worm screw 41 acts on two crosspiece elements 44, slidable along guides 421, provided on said lower base 2, moving them away and approaching said elements 44, on the basis of the work piece.
  • Two turrets 43 are provided above said crosspiece elements 44, said turrets providing corner projections 431, allowing adapting the adjustment assembly 4, as it will be more evident in the following, to the element 5 to be shaped.
  • Said turrets 43 provide lateral tongues 432, on their surfaces faced inwardly, allowing to create a profile suitable to the housing, under a triangular element 45 and two trapezoidal elements 46, provided symmetrically and above an upper gib 491.
  • Said trapezoidal elements 46 are connected to said crosspiece elements 44 by oblique spring 47.
  • Said triangular element 45 is connected to a lower gib 49 by a vertical spring 48.
  • Said gibs 49 and 491 are respectively coupled with the lower base 2 and with the upper base 23 by vertical springs 481 and 482.
  • said gib 491 is provided with a hole, not shown, corresponding with said hole 231 provided on said upper base 23.
  • triangular element 45 lowers, due to the return force of the spring 48, pre-stressed at rest, and at the same time facilitates the moving away of the trapezoidal elements 46, by the action of the springs 47.
  • a channel 51 is created by the upper gib 491, the tongues 432 and the triangular element 45, allowing the introduction of the elements 5 to be shaped.
  • the following step is that of placing an electro-milling machine 3 above the hole 231 of the upper base 23. In this way, device 1 according to the invention is ready to work.
  • figure 5 it is possible observing the various workings that can be carried out. Particularly, it is possible observing the realisation of a dovetail shaped spline, indicated by letter g, widely used as coupling means for wood or plastic structures. It is also possible working at the same time two elements by a V shaped milling cutting tip, as in figure individuated by letter c. in this case, two elements are side by side and worked on at the same time. The section obtained in the two elements has an isosceles trapezoid shape.
  • Device for shaping wood has a series of upper 49 and lower 491 gibs, with different angles ⁇ , in such a way to adapt to different type of elements 5.
  • the basic feature of the present invention is that it is possible shaping small wood parts with the maximum safety, allowing both longitudinal workings, following the orientation of the wood fibres, and transverse workings, i.e. along the fibre section, with a lower resistance during the working.
  • An advantage of the present invention is that said device allows making many different workings.
