Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application claims priority of Chinese Application No. 200720146361.2, filed on Jun. 12, 2007.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention


This invention relates to a wood planing machine, and more particularly to a wood planing machine including a rough-plane cutter and a fine-plane cutter.


2. Description of the Related Art


Referring to FIGS. 1, 2, and 3, a conventional wood planing machine 10 includes a base 11, four guide posts 12 fixed on the base 11, a mounting seat 13 sleeved movably on the guide posts 12, a motor 14 disposed on the mounting seat 13, a cutter 15 disposed rotatably on the mounting seat 13 and driven by the motor 14, a speed reduction unit 16 disposed on the mounting seat 13 and driven by the cutter 15, two pressing rollers 17 disposed rotatably on the mounting seat 13 and driven by the speed reduction unit 16, and a driving unit 18 for driving the mounting seat 13 to move vertically relative to the base 11. The cutter 15 is disposed between the pressing rollers 17.


During use, a wooden workpiece 20 is first placed onto the base 11. Next, the mounting seat 13 is moved downwardly through operation of the driving unit 18 until the cutter 15 abuts against the workpiece 20. Subsequently, the motor 14 is operated to cut the workpiece 20.


The aforesaid conventional wood planing machine 10 suffers from the following disadvantages:


Only a rough-plane cutting operation can be performed on the workpiece 20 by use of the cutter 15. To remove precisely a thickness from the workpiece 20, after the rough-plane cutting operation by the cutter 15 is finished, it is necessary to further machine the workpiece 20 through a fine-plane cutting operation or a grinding operation, thereby reducing the cutting efficiency and quality. Furthermore, due to the presence of another machine required for the fine-plane cutting operation or the grinding operation, the operating cost is increased.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The object of this invention is to provide a wood planing machine that includes a rough-plane cutter and a fine-plane cutter and that is able to improve the operating efficiency and quality and reduce the operating cost.


According to this invention, includes a base adapted to permit a workpiece to be moved thereon in a front-to-rear direction, a plurality guide posts fixed on the base, a mounting seat sleeved movably on the guide posts and, a motor disposed on the mounting seat, and a cutting unit disposed on the mounting seat. The cutting unit includes a rough-plane cutter, a fine-plane cutter disposed behind the rough-plane cutter, a first transmission unit interconnecting the motor and the rough-plane cutter to allow the rough-plane cutter to be driven by the motor, and a second transmission unit interconnecting the rough-plane cutter and the fine-plane cutter to allow rotation of the rough-plane cutter to be transferred to the fine-plane cutter.

During use, the workpiece 110 is first placed on the base 30. Next, the driving unit 33 is operated to move the mounting seat 40 downwardly until the rough-plane cutter 51 abuts against a top surface 111 of the workpiece 110. Subsequently, the motor 32 is operated to drive the rough-plane cutter 51 to perform a rough-cutting operation on the workpiece 110. When any portion of the workpiece 110 is moved rearwardly from the rough-plane cutter 51 to a position under the pressing member 65, it is pressed against the base 30 by the pressing member 65 to prevent vertical movement of the workpiece 110. When any portion of the workpiece 110 is moved rearwardly from the pressing member 65 onto the fine-plane cutter 52, a fine-plane cutting operation is performed thereon.
