MUMBAI, India, June 22 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621051399 A) filed by Mohan Vishwakarma on April 22, 2026, for Automatic Truing And Alignment Mechanism For Circular Jobs In Independent Lathe Chucks.
Inventor includes Mohan Vishwakarma.
The application for the patent was published on June 12, 2026, under issue no. 24/2026.
Abstract: Abstract The present invention relates to an automatic truing and alignment mechanism for circular workpieces in a lathe machine. The system comprises a carriage assembly mounted within a chuck, incorporating two oppositely arranged V-blocks for supporting the workpiece and a clamping mechanism for securing it. The invention utilizes a deterministic two-jaw alignment approach that guides the workpiece along a predefined axis toward the spindle center, eliminating the need for conventional trial-and-error adjustments associated with 4-jaw chucks. A micro-adjustment provision enables fine alignment through controlled external tapping, ensuring minimal runout. The mechanism achieves high repeatability and reduces setup time significantly, making it suitable for batch production. The system is compatible with standard lathe machines and can be implemented without major modifications. The invention provides a cost-effective, operator-independent solution for improving accuracy, efficiency, and productivity in machining operations involving circular jobs.
