Abstract
Various embodiments herein provide a remotely adjustable feed system for remotely controlling the movement of a tool head on a machining tool along an axis of motion by means of converting reciprocal linear motion, i.e., back and forth linear motion, into rotary motion. The rate of movement of the tool head along the axis of motion may be controlled by varying the distance of linear motion in each cycle of linear reciprocal motion and/or by varying the rate of linear reciprocal motion cycles per unit time. Alternatively, or in addition, the rate of movement of the tool head along the axis of motion may be controlled by varying the amount of rotary motion that results from a given amount of reciprocal linear motion. Additionally, in some embodiments, the movement of the tool head may be controlled by directly controlling the rotary motion that drives the tool head along the axis of motion. The rotary motion may be controlled by adjusting the speed of continuous rotation and/or adjusting the frequency of pulsed rotations.
