<p>A belt brake for a band saw provides added safety by stopping the blade of the band saw when the operator deactivates the band saw. Ideally, the brake activation is synchronized with the band saw's clutch mechanism. In the prior art, this was attainable by pivoting half the band saw, including the band saw engine. The present invention provides synchronized tension using pulleys which function while the band saw remains coplanar.</p> |
