Abstract

In a cutting mechanism (1), the cutting blade (2) is clamped against the blade support (3) by cam-like clamping members (25) arranged on a common actuating shaft (22). The clamping members (25) can be jointly adjusted by means of an actuating member (33) positioned in readily accessible manner on the front outside (30) of the cutting mechanism (1). In the vicinity of the other end, a longitudinal stop (40) for cutting blade (2) is provided, while on the end of the cutting blade (2) located at actuating member (3) is provided a mounting support (41) for a handle. Thus, even in the case of cutting mechanisms (1) closely juxtaposed in a cutting station, the cutting blade (2) can be replaced and realigned in a very short time.
