Tile saw

摘要

A tile saw includes a base, a frame assembly disposed on the base, a first rail disposed on the frame assembly, the first rail having a longitudinal axis, a table slidingly disposed on the first rail, a support assembly disposed on the base, a saw assembly supported by the support assembly, the saw assembly having a motor, a cutting wheel driven by the motor, the saw assembly being pivotable about a horizontal axis substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis, and a switch electrically connected to the motor and disposed on the support assembly so that, when the motor assembly is pivoted about the horizontal axis, the switch remains stationary.

1. A saw comprising:
a base; a frame assembly supported by the base; a rail disposed on the frame assembly, the rail having a longitudinal axis, and being supported by first and second support members attached to the frame assembly; a table having at least one bearing that rides along the rail to enable the table to slide relative to the base in a direction of the longitudinal axis; a support assembly fixed on the base and supporting a saw assembly above the table, the saw assembly comprising a motor, and a cutting wheel driven by the motor, the cutting wheel having a rotational axis and a diameter that extends in a direction of the longitudinal, axis of the rail, wherein the first, and second support members are attached to the frame assembly by a first bolt passing through a slot in the first support member and a second bolt having a longitudinal axis perpendicular to the rail, and passing through a round hole in the second support member, so that an angular position of the rail and first support member are adjustable by loosening the first bolt and adjusting a position of the slot relative to the first bolt, the rail being pivotable about the second bolt when the first bolt is loosened, and wherein the longitudinal axis of the second bolt is within a boundary defined by two parallel planes that extend tangent to the cutting wheel through the endpoints of the diameter.
