Definitions
- the present invention relates to the general field of devices for sharpening the blades of cutting tools like knives or the like.
- a sharpening device comprising at least two abrasive belts each provided with an abrasive active top surface and a bottom surface, which strips are offset longitudinally and arranged in a cross to form a crossing line. defining, on one side, a sharpening wedge formed by said moving top surfaces of said strips, and on the other side, an underlying dihedral, formed by said moving bottom surfaces of said strips. And it still relates to a sharpening process by means of such a device.
- the sharpening of a blade can be performed by an operator on a stone wheel, belt, or other.
- the operation requires experience and good dexterity in order to obtain the desired profile of the cut, ie generally a profile with convex edges, called “curved”, or “in shell", allowing a clean cut and a long service life of the blade wire.
- US-2,222,361 or the embodiment of Figure 10 of WO-2010007171, provides a mobile abrasive endless belt device each provided with an abrasive top surface and a bottom surface.
- These documents more particularly describe devices in which the moving strips are longitudinally offset and arranged in a cross, to form a cross line which defines, on one side, a sharpening wedge (formed by the moving top surfaces of said strips ), and on the other side, an underlying dihedral (formed by the moving bottom surfaces of the bands).
- these sharpening devices are formed of three abrasive belts: a first band guided by a driving pulley at the bottom and a deflection pulley at the top, and two second strips, arranged longitudinally on either side of the first, both guided by said lower drive pulley, and by another upper idler pulley.
- the grinding operation is carried out by positioning the cutting edge of the tool in the sharpening wedge, against the crossing line of the strips, in particular in the median plane of this sharpening wedge.
- a support roller adjustable in position in a vertical plane is provided at the level of the underlying dihedron, with its active surface in contact with the bottom surfaces of the strips. , to allow adjustment of the angle of the sharpening wedge.
