DEFINITION

Classification: 83/776

(under subclass 746) Device wherein means are provided which give the cutting tool a continuous or discontinuous reciprocating or oscillating motion in addition to the to-and-fro motion along its cutting edge, both the additional motion and the to-and-fro motion being in a plane common to all the motions and to the cutting span.

(1) Note. The "additional motion" referred to above must be distinguished from the tool infeed motion of subclasses 753+. The "reciprocating motion" normally causes the tool to backfeed to separate the cutting edge from the work during a portion of the to-and-fro motion, and the "oscillating motion" normally causes the tool to rock during or between cutting strokes (for the purpose of removing waste material from the kerf, etc.).
