The present invention relates to a milling drum for removing glued-down floor coverings, in particular wooden floor coverings, preferably parquet floor coverings, in particular multilayer parquet, with a predetermined milling width which determines the width of a floor surface section by running the milling drum over the floor surface section to be machined, having a plurality of cutting plates which are arranged tangentially on the milling drum and which are arranged in a distributed manner on the milling drum, such that, upon a complete revolution of the milling drum, the entire milling width is operable with at least one cutting plate and such that a common width of the cutting plates being in contact simultaneously with the floor surface section to be machined is always smaller than the milling width. The present invention further relates to a corresponding surface milling cutter, and a corresponding method for removing glued-down floor coverings.

An apparatus for facilitating processing of plant material is disclosed. The apparatus includes a base, a cutter disc rotatably coupled to the base such that the cutter disc is configured to rotate about an axis of rotation relative to the base, the cutter disc having an upper side including a plurality of radially spaced teeth, each of the plurality of teeth configured to travel on a respective cutting path to engage and shear the plant material when the cutter disc rotates. The apparatus includes a shearing governor rigidly coupled to the base, the shearing governor including one or more cutting edges, each of the one or more cutting edges extending adjacent to the cutting paths of at least two of the plurality of teeth and configured to shear the plant material when the cutter disc rotates. Other systems and apparatuses are disclosed.

This sectional hob is provided with: a cylindrical hob body; a plate-shaped blade having a saw-toothed cutting edge, the blade being disposed in at least one attachment seat formed in an outer peripheral part of the hob body such that a direction of the cutting edge is parallel to a center axis direction of the hob body; and a plurality of wedge members configured to detachably-fix the blade disposed in the attachment seat to the hob body, the wedge members being installed in a recess formed on the outer peripheral part of the hob body, wherein the recess is adjacent to the attachment seat in a circumferential direction of the hob body, and the plurality of the wedge members are disposed in a line in the center axis direction in the recess.

A cutter includes a rotary shaft having a longitudinal axis and a plurality of circumferentially spaced-apart multi-blade cutting strips each of which includes a plurality of cutting blades spacedly provided at at least one longitudinal side edge of a cutting strip body thereof. Each cutting blade of each cutting strip has a portion (P1) staggered with respect to an adjacent cutting blade of an adjacent cutting strip along a circumferential direction around the longitudinal axis, and a remaining portion (P2) aligned with the adjacent cutting blade of the adjacent cutting strip along the circumferential direction. The portion (P1) has an offset length (D) measured along the longitudinal direction.

A clamping assembly to hold a woodworking knife in place in a woodworking machine. The clamping assembly comprises a clamping component comprising a body and an actuator. The body has three discrete contact positions distributed thereon: 1) a fulcrum located generally at one end, 2) a knife abutting portion located generally at the other end, and 3) a bearing surface located elsewhere. The actuator is for applying a clamping force to the body along a clamping axis located intermediate of the knife abutting portion and the fulcrum. The fulcrum is a surface having a normal that is at an angle to the clamping axis. The bearing surface is a surface wherein a line normal to the bearing surface intersects the line normal to the fulcrum at a position outside of the clamping component at a location farther askew of the clamping axis than the fulcrum.
