This invention. relates to machines for tho grinding of the cams upon the cum sliuits of internal combustion und like engines.
The object of my present invention is to provide means for the more expeditious and economica grinding of the said cams which :ire integral with tlle com shafts und which have heretofore usually been ground one ut o time.
My invention comprises the combination with means suijiporting the cuni slm-ft, of u plurality of independently mounted rotat- `ing; grinding Wheels, each operating 'upon one com, the positions and the feed movements o'l" seid Wheels being' controlled by master caros or formare9 for adjusting 'the Ig'iosition of the grinding 'wheels zw;-l
ially with relation to the coms, und ineens 'for reciprocating the com shaft during grinding'.
My' invention further comprises :i grind-- ingr machine haring in combinution with o fixed liead., sliding1 heads mounted upon u reciprooetory tnlrlc and carrying anni. roti ing the com sllufu the come oi1 which :ire to bey ground, and n plurality of grinding Wheels each carried by an erm or its equivolent'ou'palole of oscillotorj movement: under the action o u muster com or oriiner, elicli of Suid arms being lx'lvotelly mounted upon l an adjustable slide.
My invention further comprises theJ rie tails of eonsiruction hereinafter f lcscriiied.
Referring; to tlm accompanying explainatory' drswingm-- Figure 1 is a plan View of o, 'niucliiue constructed in one convenient, form in accordance 'with my invention for grinding four cams simultaneously.
Figure il is an end elevation of the mnchine,
