  • Patent number: 9956593
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to mechanical support rail cleaners for cleaning support rails of workpiece supports in machine tools, such as in machine tools for thermally cutting workpieces. The cleaners include one or more cleaning member carriers, which carry at least one cleaning member, and a parallel drive, by means of which the cleaning member and the support rail can be moved relative to each other in parallel with a lateral longitudinal face of the support rails and transversely relative to a longitudinal axis of the support rail to remove deposits from the support rail by means of the cleaning member. The support rail cleaner further includes a transverse drive configured to periodically move the one or more cleaning member carriers and the support rail towards and away from each other transversely relative to the lateral longitudinal face of the support rail.

  • Patent number: 6733216
    Abstract: A hand-held milling machine (1) has a cutting tool (9, 10) which protrudes from a machine support (3) on the side facing the workpiece. A screw-type clamping mechanism allows the cutting tool (9, 10) and the machine support (3) to be positionally adjusted relative to each other by the relative rotational movement of clamping sections (6, 18) on both sides around a drive axis (13) in the direction of the projection of the cutting tool (9, 10) relative to the machine support (3). The clamping sections (6, 18) are positioned opposite each other in the radial direction of the drive axis (13). A tensioning device (35) allows the two clamping sections (6, 18) on both sides to be secured against relative rotational movement around the drive axis (13).
