Publication number: 20020157514Abstract: The invention relates to a cutting mold set of metal tubes, comprising of the following: a cutting mold unit that moves in relation to a lower mold unit is installed on one side of an upper mold unit, the upper mold unit is capable of moving in relation to a lower mold unit. On the cutting mold unit is installed a first mold block with a cutting hole, and on the lower mold unit is installed a second mold block with a through hole, the cutting hole and the through hole matching and communicating with each other. With the metal tube inserted inside the through hole and the cutting hole, when the upper mold unit and the cutting mold move toward the lower mold unit, the cutting hole and the through hole move in relation to each other to create a cutting force to cut the metal tube, thereby achieving the objectives of speedy and safe operation, enhancing safety in cutting operation, and reducing waste iron scraps.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 16, 2001Publication date: October 31, 2002Inventor: Chi-Wen Ko

Patent number: 5331873Abstract: An improved tank configuration wherein a die is employed to stamp a formed member is disclosed. The formed member may be used as either the top or bottom head for a portable liquid container, and is constructed so that all welding is eliminated in the corner and outlet portions of the container. A trim machine is employed to remove uneven edges from the formed part. By the present invention, a stamped configuration is provided in which a draw formed tank bottom is formed so as to allow complete and full drainage of the tank bottom. The top and bottom heads are finish trimmed to exact dimensions so as to facilitate the assembly of these parts to the shell of the tank.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 1993Date of Patent: July 26, 1994Assignee: Custom Metalcraft, Inc.Inventor: Ronald G.

Patent number: 4991478Abstract: The excess covering material is trimmed from a workpiece using a blade assembly having side by side blade segments with cutting edges aligned with the contour to be cut. A rubber roller applies a longitudinal cutting force to the blade segments in sequential fashion by rolling across the blade segments ends opposite the cutting ends. The blade segments are returned to the noncutting position by a tension wire threaded through a notch in the shaft of each of the blade segments. Cutting pressure is adequate to cut through at least three layers of covering material without scoring the substrate. The rubber roller provides certain resiliency which helps control the cutting pressure.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 1989Date of Patent: February 12, 1991Assignee: Reflex Trim, Inc.Inventor: Wayne F. Riley
