Cutting devices and associated methods are described. In one aspect, a cutting device includes an annular support body defining an axial space into which a pipe to be cut can be inserted, the body formed of a rigid material and including a blade-bearing portion and a non-blade-bearing portion, wherein the blade-bearing portion is secured to the non-blade-bearing portion by a hinge mechanism allowing the two portions to be movable between an open position in which a pipe can be inserted, and a closed position in which the pipe is engaged by the body, wherein a part of the blade-bearing portion spaced from the hinge mechanism includes a blade that protrudes radially inwards of the body, such that in use the urging of the two portions towards the closed position urges the pipe against the blade so that rotation of the cutting device around the pipe cuts the pipe.

A pipe cutting device with a positioning element and a counter-support, which are formed on a c-shaped working head, wherein the working head also transitions into a foot part that can also be used as a grip region, and the positioning element can be displaced relative to the foot part to change an opening width of the working head, wherein the positioning element can also be fixed on the foot part by means of a detent device, which has a hand-operable engagement element that interacts with a receiving part to fix the detent. In order to improve the design in terms of handling, the engagement element is situated on the positioning element and can be displaced together with the positioning element relative to the receiving part.

A can cutting device that has a main body and a can support assembly coupled to the main body. The can support assembly has a shaft that extends along a longitudinal shaft axis, an eccentrically mounted mandrel that extends along a longitudinal mandrel axis parallel to the longitudinal shaft axis, and a cutter coupled to the main body having a cutting surface. The can is positionable in a mounted position such that the can is rotatable about a can axis of rotation, the cutting surface is positional to contact the portion of the can body supported by the mandrel at the cutting location, and when the cutting surface is in contact with the portion of the can body supported by the mandrel at the cutting location and the can is rotated about the can axis of rotation, the cutter cuts the portion of the can body at the cutting location.

A powered cutting tool for cutting tubular or cylindrical workpieces such as pipe is described. The cutting tool includes a base, an electric motor, a collection of rollers, a frame, a feedscrew, an auto cut wheel system, and a handle for rotating the feedscrew and adjusting the position of the auto cut wheel system relative to the rollers. In certain versions, the cutting tool includes torque-limiting provisions, to limit the amount of torque applied to the feedscrew. In certain versions, the cutting tool includes rollers and press wheels featuring non-metal outer surfaces.

A pipe cutting device includes first and second C-shaped half-bodies, a cutter disposed between the first and second C-shaped half-bodies, two wheels, an automatic cutter feeding mechanism, and arc-shaped plate adjustment screws. The automatic cutter feeding mechanism moves the cutter to perform an automatic feeding operation and is in cooperation with the two wheels to cut a pipe. The first and second C-shaped half-bodies include a first screw hole and a second screw hole respectively, the arc-shaped plate adjustment screws are locked into the first screw hole and the second screw hole respectively, to adjust a moving path, toward a location between the two wheels, of the cutter pushed by the automatic cutter feeding mechanism. Therefore, the pipe cutting device can adjust the moving path of the cutter, fine tuning to cut the pipe, and adjusting a pressing force of the cutter.

A cutter, such as a tubing cutter or a swing cutter. The cutter may include a cutting wheel; a roller; a housing assembly including a first housing portion supporting the cutting wheel and a second housing portion supporting the roller; a shaft connecting the housing portions, rotation of the shaft causing relative movement of the housing portions along a shaft axis; and a knob connected to the shaft and engageable by a user to rotate the shaft, the knob having, in a plane perpendicular to the shaft axis, a non-symmetrical shape defined by opposite circular sector portions and opposite lever portions, each lever portion being engageable by a user to apply a force to the knob in a direction of rotation. The cutter may include a shaft with a radial shoulder preventing movement of the shaft from the cavity through an opening in the housing portion.
