ABSTRACT:
A self-propelled pipe cleaning machine as disclosed for use in removal of deteriorated coatings, such as coal tar or tape, from pipelines and providing a degree of surface preparation suitable for recoating. The machine comprises a travelling frame for motion along the pipe and an oscillating carriage bearing a plurality of counter-rotating cylindrical cutting tools which are urged toward the pipe surface by constant-force pneumatic cylinders. Variation in the pressure of cutters against the pipe surface during oscillation of the cutter head is avoided by counterbalancing of the pivotally-mounted cutters and their associated drive means.
