ABSTRACT:
A grooving indexer is provided for use with routing apparatus to improve the capability of the apparatus for rapidly routing straight parallel grooves in cabinet doors and similar panels. The routing apparatus is of the type in which a router is mounted on the end of a bar for extension over a panel to be routed and in which the router can be moved in any direction across the panel by reason of the bar being mounted on a carrier for longitudinal movement in one dimension of the panel, and the carrier being mounted for movement parallel to the other dimension of the panel. The grooving indexer comprises a series of stops adjustable longitudinally of the bar and a pivotal lever on the carriage biased into engagement with the stops to prevent longitudinal movement of the bar unless the lever is tripped. Although the lever may be tripped manually, mechanism is provided for tripping the lever automatically after each groove is cut so that the router is automatically released for positioning to cut succeeding grooves. An auxilliary adjustable stop may be provided for stopping the carriage for cutting selected transverse grooves.
