Abstract
The quick change insert system of the present invention utilizes a removable locking pin and an insert sleeve to permit easy replacement of an insert pin within a sleeve. Insert pin replacement occurs by removing the locking pin. After removing the locking pin, the insert sleeve is removed together with the insert pin. The insert pin is separated from the insert sleeve, and a replacement insert pin is put in its place. The new insert pin and the insert sleeve slide back into the sleeve, and the locking pin secures the insert pin and the insert sleeve to the sleeve. The present invention does not require the removing or re-adjusting of the sleeve during insert pin replacement. Furthermore, the present invention permits easy replacement of other sleeve assembly parts during part to part changeover and eliminates costly inventory of sleeve assemblies.
