Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a circular saw with a riving knife, a support plate and a saw blade that is adjustable relative to the support surface for changing the cutting depth.
  • the riving knife In the case of circular saws, it is known and prescribed to arrange the riving knife so that it does not change its position relative to the saw blade and to the highest point of the saw blade above the contact surface when the cutting height is adjusted. If the cutting height is changed by moving the saw housing with the saw blade vertically against the support plate, then the riving knife is firmly connected to the motor housing in known circular saws.
  • the motor housing with saw blade for adjusting the cutting height is pivotally connected to the support plate with a motor support, then a guiding device must be provided for the riving knife in a known manner, which guides the saw blade in the desired manner.
  • the riving knife must normally be used for the safety of the operator, there is occasionally a need to remove the riving knife for certain areas of application. This is the case, for example, if the saw blade is cut into plate-shaped workpieces are dipped into the workpiece from the surface. Or if you have to saw backwards on certain occasions. In these cases, the riving knife would prevent the desired working movement and must therefore be removed. When using the circular saw for normal sawing work, the riving knife would have to be reattached. However, this is often forgotten or omitted for convenience so that the operator can be seriously endangered and injured by kickback workpieces.
  • the object of the present invention is to arrange the riving knife on a circular saw in such a way that it is also possible for the saw blade to be immersed in the workpiece or to be sawed backwards without the riving knife having to be removed.
  • This object is achieved in that the riving knife is movably mounted on the circular saw above the contact surface in order to carry out a relative movement relative to the highest point of the saw blade.
  • the riving knife is thus preferably pivoted behind the supporting surface against the action of a restoring force when the saw blade is immersed in the workpiece and slides into the slot produced by the saw blade during further forward sawing. This ensures that the prescribed riving knife is available for further sawing work and thus the operator cannot be endangered.
  • the guiding device designed as a jelly corner can be provided with at least one additional degree of freedom.
  • this additional degree of freedom can be formed in that the non-driven rocker arm has a length that can be varied against a restoring force.
  • a bearing of the four-bar linkage is designed to be movable.
  • a releasable locking between the riving knife and circular saw can be provided, which prevents the free relative movement between the riving knife and the highest point of the saw blade in the locking position.
  • the lock To use such a circular saw for plunge work, the lock must be released so that the riving knife can swing back behind the platen. If the riving knife then slides into the saw slot when sawing further, it can be provided that the locking mechanism engages automatically and must be released again the next time it is immersed. It can also be provided that the riving knife without a restoring force, e.g. Spring, weight, magnetically or hydraulically adjustable by hand and locked in the end points.
  • a restoring force e.g. Spring, weight, magnetically or hydraulically adjustable by hand and locked in the end points.
  • the riving knife according to the invention can advantageously be attached to portable circular saws as well as to stationary table saws.
  • a motor housing 3 with a saw blade 4 is fastened in a vertically displaceable manner on a support plate 1 with a support surface 2.
  • a riving knife carrier 5, on which a riving knife 6 is removably attached, is pivotally mounted on the motor housing 3 concentrically to the axis 7 of the saw blade 4.
  • a stop 8 is also provided on the motor housing 3 and a tension spring 9 is provided between the stop 8 and the riving knife carrier 5, so that the riving knife carrier 5 is pulled against the stop 8 in its rest position.
  • Splitting wedge 6 assumes its position intended for normal sawing work, in which the highest point 10 of the saw blade 4 projects beyond the splitting wedge (6) by a few millimeters.
  • the riving knife 6 is pivoted back so far by the workpiece against the action of the tension spring 9 in the position shown in broken lines in FIG. 1 that the saw blade 4 can be immersed in this until the bearing surface 2 abuts the workpiece.
  • the riving knife 6 slides under the action of the tension spring 9 into the sawing gap formed by the saw blade 4 and thus performs its intended safety function.
  • FIGS. 2 to 4 schematically show circular saws with a pivotably mounted motor mount and tracking device for the riving knife, various exemplary embodiments for the movement of the riving knife according to the invention being shown.
  • the rocker arm 15 of a motor housing 16 is pivotably mounted on a bearing 13 or 14 for adjusting the cutting height of the saw blade 17.
  • a riving knife carrier 19 is pivotally mounted on the motor housing 16 concentrically to the axis 18 of the saw blade 17, on which a riving knife 20 is removably fastened. The highest point 21 of the saw blade 17 projects beyond the riving knife 20 again by a certain amount.
  • the riving knife carrier 19 is designed as an angle lever, on the carrier arm 22 of which the riving knife 20 is fastened and the other arm of which forms a coupling 23, on the joint 24 of which a rocker arm 25 (FIGS. 2) and 26 (FIGS. 4 and 5) is pivotably fastened is. Swing arms 25 and 26 are connected at their other end to the support plate 11 via joints 27, 28 and 29.
  • the imaginary connecting line between the joints 13-27, 14-28 and 13-29 form in a known manner with the driven rocker 15, the coupling 23 and the further rocker 25 and 26, a quadrilateral joint, which when swiveling the motor housing 16 to adjust the Cutting height of saw blade 17 tracks riving knife 20 so that the determined distance between highest point 21 and riving knife remains constant.
  • the rocker 25 has a sleeve 30 which is pivotally attached to the joint 27.
  • a rod 31 is slidably mounted in the sleeve 30, with a plate 32 of the rod 31 and an end wall 33 of the sleeve 30 a compression spring 34 is arranged.
  • Rod 31 is pivotally connected to the joint 24 and plate 32 is pressed in the rest position by compression spring 34 against the other end wall 35 of sleeve 30.
  • the arrangement according to the invention shown in Fig. 2 ensures the tracking of the riving knife 20 when adjusting the cutting height. If the circular saw is used for plunge sawing, then the riving knife 20 is pivoted from the surface of the workpiece against the action of the compression spring 34 into the position shown in broken lines in FIG. 2. After a sawing gap has been formed, the compression spring 34 automatically guides the riving knife 20 into this sawing gap.
  • the joint 28 is not connected to the support plate 11, but is pivotally connected to an intermediate member 36 with the bearing 14 attached to the support plate 11.
  • a tension spring 37 is fastened between the intermediate member 36 and the bracket 38 of the support plate 11 and pulls the intermediate member 36 against a stop cam 39 of the bracket 38.
  • the riving knife 20 can be pivoted when immersed in the direction of the support surface 12 and returns automatically after the formation of a sawing gap his rest position back.
  • the joint 29 is mounted in an arcuate slot 40 in a bracket 41 of the support plate 11.
  • a collar bolt 43 engages in a bore 42 of the rocker arm 26, which is slidably mounted in the slot 40 and can be clamped to the bracket 41 with a wing nut 44.
  • the additional degree of freedom can thus be eliminated by an intervention by the operator and the movement of the gap restrict the wedge to the tracking movement.
  • the wing nut 44 is loosened, the displaceable mounting of the joint 29 in the slot 40 allows the riving knife 20 to be pivoted in the direction of the support surface 12 when the saw blade 17 is immersed.
  • FIG. 6 A modification of the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 is shown in FIG. 6.
  • the bearing 14 is designed as a double joint on which both the rocker arm 15 for the motor housing 16 and the intermediate member 36 are pivotably mounted.
  • the intermediate member 36 is fastened to a bearing pin 45 which is rotatably mounted in the bracket 38 and with which a setting wheel 47 is fixedly connected with a pin 46.
  • a helical spring 48 is arranged between the adjusting wheel 47 and the bracket 38, which holds the intermediate member 36 in the rest position shown in FIG. 3 via the bearing pin 45.
  • a locking pin 50 is slidably mounted in a bore 49 of the adjusting wheel 47. It has two grooves 51, into which a spring-loaded ball 52 engages, the adjusting wheel 47 being freely rotatable in the release position of locking bolts 50 and the locking bolt 50 engaging in a locking position in a bore 53 of console 38 and thus adjusting wheel 47 with console 38 locked. In this locking position, the additional degree of freedom of riving knife 20 is canceled.
  • Fig. 7 shows the use of the riving knife according to the invention in a stationary table saw.
  • a rocker 57 of motor housing 58 with saw blade 59 is pivotally mounted on a bearing 56 again.
  • the riving knife 60 is removably attached to one arm of a riving knife carrier 61, the other arm forms a coupling 62 of a four-bar linkage which is supplemented by a rocker 63 which corresponds to the rocker 25 of FIG. 2 and is pivotably mounted on the joint 64 of the bracket 54 and the joint 65 of the coupling 62.
  • Stationary table saws are usually provided with a protective hood, which can be pivotally attached to the end of riving knife 60.
  • this protective hood must be removed.
