METHOD AND MACHINE FOR MAKING ARTICLES FROM METAL WIRE, UNIT FOR MAKING ARTICLES FROM METAL WIRE, WORKING TOOL FOR MACHINE MAKING ARTICLES FROM METAL WIRE, INTERCHANGEABLE DRIVE FOR WORKING TOOL Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: unit has working platform, first rotary mounting device positioned on working platform and provided with separately adjustable drives for working tools. Mounting device covering wire working zone is rotatable about working zone to define central axis. Rotary mounting device has detachable segments, each carrying working tool drive. Segments may be detached to increase size of working zone. Working zone is extending through platform. It allows parts movable through working zone to be treated by means of second mounting device positioned at opposite side of working platform. Working platform is movable in directions X, Y to be centered relative to machine and provides preliminary forming of wire. EFFECT: wider operational capabilities, improved precision and increased efficiency. 21 cl, 41 dwg
