A method and an apparatus for the chamfering of the axially facing ends of toothed cylindrical or conical workpieces in which a cutting tool arranged on a rocking lever is moved back and forth in response to the peripheral speed of the workpiece which constantly rotates about its axis. The cutting edge of the tool acts chip-removingly during each stroke that is directed onto or toward the axially facing surface of each tooth of the workpiece. The cutting edge moves along a circular segment path, the axis of which extends at least approximately parallel to a radial of the workpiece, which radial starts out from the workpiece axis and extends through the tooth which is to be worked or machined.

A gear or rack-shaped tool for precision machining of tooth flanks of gears is provided with a coating of a hard material like diamond or cubic bornitride (CBN). In order to be able to apply this coating without any problems, the tool includes two connected halves. Each half includes a base member with teeth which project axially beyond one side of the base member every second tooth being removed. The projecting teeth of each half project into the gaps created by the teeth removed from the other half.

An apparatus for orienting the position of a machine tool carriage relative to a stationary machine part, which machine tool carriage is movable in a plane defined by orthogonally related X and Y axes. In a first embodiment, the carriage is freely movable on a holder parallel with respect to the X axis and the holder is arranged freely movably in the stationary machine part parallel with respect to the Y axis. In a different embodiment, two pairs of steering knuckle arms are provided and which are arranged symmetrically with respect to the carriage. Each pair of arms consists of two hingedly connected steering knuckle arms which define a right angle with one of each thereof being hinged to the carriage, the other one to the stationary machine part. Two modifications are described for the design of the joints. The apparatus can be used, for example in machines for the precision working of gears.

A machine for the precision working of tooth surfaces on a toothed workpiece stationarily but rotatably mounted on a machine frame, by using a tool, for example a shaving gear, arranged above the workpiece and which is rotatably drivable. The tool is mounted on a tool carrier which in turn is mounted on a guide carrier, which tool carrier is longitudinally movable and which is swingably suspended on a horizontal bolt. The tool carrier has a guide arm which is guided in a pivot member. The horizontal bolt, which for the purpose of adjusting the feed direction can be rotated about a vertical axis, is also adjustably inclinable in a vertical plane to enable the production of slightly conical teeth according to an underpass machining method.

A machine for precision working, for example shaving, of the tooth flanks of a toothed workpiece supported rotatably on a machine frame. A tool carrier carries a multi-toothed tool, for example a shaving cutter, and is supported substantially above the workpiece for rotative adjustment of the crossing of the axes of the workpiece and tool, about an axis perpendicular to the workpiece axis. The tool carrier is guided movably in a guide carrier and is driven for longitudinal feeding of the tool. The guide carrier is suspended swingably about a horizontal axis for spherical or conical tooth working. The guide carrier is supported pendantly from a swivel plate which is swingable and lockable about an axis perpendicular to the workpiece axis for adjusting the feed direction. The tool carrier is guided by a guide arm which is adjustable in its inclination and is securable by a pivot member on the swivel plate. Structure is provided for cancelling a portion of the feed movement of the tool toward the workpiece, and the guide arm comprises an inclined swivel guide bar which produces such feed movement of the tool toward the workpiece in response to longitudinal movement of the tool carrier.
