Abstract

See full text

A cutting head for a high pressure water jet cutting assembly includes a body having an inner chamber and an aperture that extends into the inner chamber. A focusing tube is removably insertable within the inner chamber along a longitudinal axis. An engagement member is at least partially disposed within the aperture and movable between a first position and a second position in which a portion of the engagement member is disposed within the inner chamber. A retaining member is engageable with the body and movable with respect to the body to bias the engagement member into engagement with the focusing tube to retain the focusing tube within the inner chamber and to align the focusing tube substantially along the longitudinal axis.
