Abstract: The transmission of the rotational movement to the driving pinion of the carriage is provided by: a first gear train with a cage mounted so that it can rotate about the axial shaft and the crown wheel of which meshes with a pinion fitted onto the shaft of an electric motor carried by the body, this train carrying at least two superposed planet pinions and meshing, in the case of the upper one, with a set of teeth formed around the axial shaft and, in the case of the lower one, with an output sun gear, a second train, the sun gear of which is secured to the output sun gear of the first train and meshes with the upper planet pinion of at least one set of superposed planet pinions which are mounted so that they are free to rotate in a continuation of the body, the lower planet pinion meshing with a set of teeth which, formed on the driving pinion of the carriage, is distinct from the set of teeth that collaborates with the rack of this carriage, these two sun gears having ratios which are other than 1 and in

Abstract: In a machine tool, a cradle of a bit holder is in the form of a rectangular trihedron and is inclined transversely about an axis of inclination corresponding to a generatrix of the conical bearing surface of a valve seat that has to be produced, while the cutting edges of the bit are produced from a blank having three bearing faces forming a rectangular trihedron, including a back face, a longitudinal face and a rear face, and another longitudinal face and a forward face of which, remaining in the as-produced state, are flanks with respect to the front face, a main cutting edge being produced so that its mid-point coincides with a reference point on the axis of inclination and lies on the axis of inclination at a constant distance from the vertex of the trihedron of the cradle.

Abstract: The means for aligning this device comprise a sphere holder (17) placed on a support (4) with the possibility, in the phase of positioning the spindle (6), of it shifting in all directions of the horizontal plane, a spherical core (13) mounted in the sphere holder (17) with the possibility of rotating freely, a substantially vertical sheath (10) which can be shifted axially in the core (13) and carries the spindle for driving the tool.
