This invention relates to a mechanism for tooth clearance adjustment and linear actuation. In certain aspects of the invention, a mechanism for gear clearance adjustment comprises a retaining element, on which a first gear wheel is mounted, and a carrier element, on which a gear rack or a second gear wheel is mounted. The carrier element or on the retaining element includes at least one clearance adjustment device arranged by a fastening device.

Mechanism for tooth clearance adjustment and linear actuation

In some aspects, a workpiece processing installation includes an operating area, an operating pallet able to be moved along a transport direction between a position within the operating area and a position outside the operating area, the operating pallet being configured to support a workpiece, and a pallet support that is configured to be transferred from a first position, in which the pallet support defines a storage area for the storage of the operating pallet outside the operating area, to a second position in which the pallet support protrudes away from the operating area in the transport direction to a lesser extent than it does in the first position. Transferring the pallet support from the first position to the second position includes moving at least a portion of the pallet support towards the operating area which results in the storage area defined by the pallet support becoming smaller.

A device for comminuting a residual sheet metal grid includes a grid supply system defining a grid supply plane and supplying the grid in a longitudinal direction; and a cutting assembly including a plurality of shearing teeth extending along a transverse direction transverse to the longitudinal direction. The shearing teeth can include a cutting edge, a cutting edge portion, or both a cutting edge and a cutting edge portion. The cutting assembly can be constructed and arranged to cut the metal grid along the longitudinal direction and the transverse direction.
