Patent

CA 2668015

A method of improving the control of a rotary cutting machine is disclosed. The cutting element of the rotary cutting machine being a filament which is rotated at high velocity under the control of a motor, such as powered by a battery or gasoline. The invention provides within the lower rotating head of the rotary cutting machine an optical source which illuminates the filament such that the distal rotating end of the filament provides a visual indication to an operator of the location of the rotating cutting element. In an embodiment of the invention the electrical power for the optical source is provided by providing an electrical generator within the rotary cutting machine such that for example the rotor is within the rotating head and the stator within the upper body of the rotary cutting machine.

L'invention concerne un procédé d'amélioration du contrôle d'une machine de coupe rotative. L'élément de coupe de la machine de coupe rotative est un filament qui tourne à vitesse élevée, entraîné par un moteur de type entraîné par une batterie ou à essence. L'invention prévoit une source optique qui éclaire le filament dans la tête rotative inférieure de la machine de coupe rotative, de manière à ce que l'extrémité distale en rotation du filament permette à un opérateur de repérer visuellement l'emplacement de l'élément de coupe rotatif. Dans un mode de réalisation de la présente invention, l'alimentation électrique pour la source optique est assurée par un générateur électrique dans la machine de coupe rotative de manière à ce que le rotor se trouve par exemple dans la tête en rotation et le stator, dans l'élément supérieur de la machine de coupe rotative.
