  • Patent number: 5167136
    Abstract: Each of the two, pivotal, roll supporting arms of a thread rolling attachment has therethrough adjacent the end thereof remote from its pivotal axis a bore in which one end of a cylindrical pattern roll supporting shaft is adjustably secured. The axis of the bore, and hence the axis of the shaft and the pattern roll mounted thereon, are inclined slightly to the pivotal axis of the roll supporting arm, so that the axis or rotation of the pattern roll will be inclined slightly to the axis of rotation of the stock which is to be engaged by the roll. The pattern roll is releasably attached to one end of the support shaft, and is drivingly connected to one end of an internal pin, which is mounted intermediate its ends for rotation in an axial bore which is formed through the support shaft. At its opposite end the pin is releasably connected to a roll gear to which rotation is imparted by the pin upon rotation of the pattern roll.

  • Patent number: 4924687
    Abstract: An annular threading roll is releasably secured to one end of a support shaft by a ball detent which in its locking position seats at one side in a semi-spherically shaped recess that is formed in the inner peripheral surface of the roll, and which is engaged at its opposite side by an enlarged-diameter head formed on one end of an operating member that is mounted for limited axial movement in an axial bore in the shaft. The operating member is spring-loaded into a position in which its head engages the detent to keep the latter in its roll locking position, but the member can be pushed axially to a second position to remove its head from behind the detent which can then shift radially inwardly of the shaft to release the roll for axial movement off of the shaft.
