Referring to the drawings, and initially to FIGS.
1 and 2, a device for supporting a saw comprises a base 20 having a number of holes 21, 22, 23 and having an arrow 25 provided on top and directing toward the holes 23, 22. The base 20 includes four legs or pads 24 extended downward from the four corners for spacing and for elevating the base 20 from the supporting surface.
Without the pads 24, the base 20 may also be directly disposed on a table or the like.
A rotary member 30 includes a board 31 having a hole 311 for engaging with a pivot shaft 312 which may be in the form of a bolt for engaging with a nut 313 and for securing the board 31 to the base 20. The pivot shaft 312 is engaged through the hole 22 of the base 20. The board 31 includes a protractor 32 having a curved slot 321 and an angular graduation 322 for telling the angular position of the rotary member 30 by the indication of the arrow 25 to the angular graduation 322. A fastener 35 is engaged through the curved slot 321 and is engaged with a nut 351 and includes a head 352 for rotating the fastener 35 and for securing the board 31 to the base 20 at the required angular position. The board 31 includes one or more posts 40 extended upward.
A saw 51, such as a hand saw, includes a longitudinal rod 511 and a saw blade 512 substantially parallel to the longitudinal rod 511. One or more frames 52 each includes one or more sleeves 521 for slidably engaging with the longitudinal rod 511 and for allowing the saw 51 to be slided relative to the frames 52. The frames 52 each includes one or more rings 522 for engaging with the posts 40 and for allowing the frames 52 and the saw 51 to be guided to move up and down along the posts 40.
In operation, the saw 51 may be moved forward and rearward relative to the frames 52 and may be moved up and down along the posts 40. In addition, the board 31 may be adjusted to different angular positions, such that the saw 51 may be used for effectively and accurately sawing a workpiece engaged on the board 31.
The most important characteristic of the saw supporting device is that frame(s) 52 may be moved up and down along the post(s) 40 and the saw 51 may be moved forward and rearward relative to the frame(s) 52 for allowing the saw 51 to saw the workpiece.
As shown in FIGS. 1-3, one or more supports 61 each includes an extension 63 for engaging with the holes 21 of the base 20 and for securing to the base 20. The supports 61 each includes a panel 62 extended upward and each includes an upper surface having a number of bulges 611 for engaging with a workpiece 99 and for maintaining the workpiece 99 at a suitable angular position. It is preferable that two supports 61 are secured on the base 20 and are disposed on both sides of the rotary member 30 for supporting the end portions of the workpiece such that the middle portion of the workpiece may be supported above the board 31 and below the saw blade 512. As shown in FIG. 2, the support 61 and the panel 62 each includes a screw hole 64. One or more clamping devices 65 each includes a bolt 66 for engaging with the screw holes 64 and each includes a bracket 68 having two screw holes 681 for engaging with the bolt 66 and another bolt 67. The bolt 67 is preferably parallel to the bolt 66 and is threaded to the bracket 68 for clamping the workpiece in place. The bolt 67 includes a knob 671 for rotating the bolt 67. A fastener 684 is engaged with a screw hole 683 of the bracket 68 for securing the bolt 66 in place.
Referring next to FIGS. 4 and 5, a work table 10 may be provided for supporting the saw supporting device. The work table 10 includes a stand 13 having two parallel beams 14 provided on top and includes a bolt 15 rotatably engaged in each of the beams 14. A plate 11 is fixed on top of the stand 13 and another plate 12 is rotatably secured on top of the stand 13 by an angular adjustable mechanism 16. Two blocks are secured to the angular adjustable mechanisms 16 and are slidably engaged in the beams 14 and threadedly engaged with the bolts 15 for allowing the bolts 15 to move the blocks and the angular adjustable mechanism 16 along the beams 14 when the bolts 15 are rotated. Two pads 69 are secured on ends of the plate 11 and each has a tapered cut off portion 691. A rotary member 30 includes a board 31 having a pivot shaft 315 extended downward and rotatably engaging in a hole 111 of the plate 11 (FIGS. 7, 8) for allowing the rotary member 30 to be rotatably secured on the plate 11. The rotary member 30 also includes a protractor 32 having a curved slot 321. A fastener 37 is engaged through the curved slot 321 and is engaged with a hole 112 of the plate 11 for engaging with a nut 371 and for securing the rotary member 30 to the plate 11. An arrow 114 (FIG. 9) is provided on top of the plate 11 for indicating the angular graduation. The board 31 includes a window 36 for viewing the arrow 114 and includes one or more posts 40 extended upward for engaging with the frames 52 and for supporting the saw in place.
