Copying machine of wooden sculptured model - has sensor unit conveyed along model contours with pantograph drive and multiple cut machine

摘要

A machine, producing copies of finely shaped objects such as wooden sculptures, contains a copying pantograph The contours of the model are continuously scanned by an operator using a sensor. A cutter is driven along a path similar to the contours cutting through unfashioned pieces of the model to produce the required replicas. The deflection axes (6,7) of the pantograph (1) are picked by an angular displacement detector and transmitter. The linear displacement is picked up by a linear displacement detector and transmitter. The signals are fed to a transducer with a store and a control unit, which transmits the signals to a multiple cutting machine.
