  • Patent number: 6769282
    Abstract: One-step offset bender for speed and accuracy in offsetting pipe or other materials. The offset bender (100) includes a base (110) on which is mounted a fixed shoe support (130) and a traveling shoe support (160). The fixed shoe support fixedly holds a first shoe assembly (200), and the traveling shoe support holds a second shoe assembly (200′) that can be moved vertically and horizontally. The offset bender simultaneously produces two, aligned, equal and opposite bends in conduit by pressing down on the second shoe assembly (200′). The conduit shoe assemblies include a plurality of conduit shoes that can be selectively aligned to accommodate the desired conduit. The fixed shoe support is pivotally attached to the base, and the traveling shoe support is removable, such that the bender may be folded for easy transport. A motor (361) or other power system may be used to facilitate making the bend.
