  • Apparatus for adjusting radial displacement from rotatable shaft
    Patent number: 5000627
    Abstract: Apparatus for adjusting the radial displacement of a member, such as a tool bit, from a rotational shaft, such as a boring bar used in a boring operation. An aperture in the boring bar supports the tool bit, allowing it to protrude radially outwardly from the boring bar. An adjustable feed mechanism in the aperture adjustably feeds the tool bit along the aperture. An adjusting mechanism couples with and facilitates adjustment of the feed mechanism. A calibrating mechanism on the adjusting mechanism, and on the boring bar, calibrates adjustment of the feed mechanism by the adjusting mechanism.
