  • the cutting head 8 In order to bring now the knife position of the inclined cutting angle C - C in the vertical cutting angle B - B, that is with respect to the mat 1 of FIG. 2 from the knife approach 18 to the knife neck 19, the cutting head 8 from the controller 15 to the stop 17th hazards. In the schematic representation according to FIG. 3, this corresponds to the position 8 'of the cutting head 8 indicated by dashed lines. It should be added here that the position of the stop 17 is to be understood only as an example; it could also be arranged elsewhere, for example on the left edge of the support 7, as long as it can be approached by the cutting head 8. In the illustrated embodiment, the stop 17 is formed so that the beam 12 can pass over it unhindered.
  • a stop 17 is shown in Figs. 13-19.
  • the stop 17 on an inclined, that is deviating from the vertical surface 29, the further below the cutting head 8, and the guide stop 27 opposes as above.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une machine à découper, en particulier pour la découpe de passe-partout au moyen d'une lame (21) disposée sur une tête de coupe (8). La tête de coupe (8) est déplaçable, au moyen d'un système d'entraînement, suivant au moins deux axes. La découpe de passe-partout nécessite un angle de coupe (B-B) vertical et un angle de coupe (C-C) oblique pour conférer à la partie concernée du passe-partout, une coupe généralement oblique. Pour régler la lame (21) en vue de passer d'un premier angle de coupe (B-B) à un second angle de coupe (C-C), ou inversement, la tête de coupe (8) est déplacée sur une butée (17) disposée sur la machine à découper, et amenée en position de telle façon que l'élément pivotant (20), porteur de la lame (21) soit orienté d'un angle de coupe à l'autre (B-B, C-C). Ce réglage peut ainsi s'effectuer, commandé automatiquement, sans avoir besoin de recourir à un entraînement supplémentaire.
