1,046,847. Sawing. A. STOLZER. Sept. 28, 1965 [Sept. 30, 1964], No. 41116/65. Heading B5L. A hack saw comprises a saw bow 5 with a saw blade 4 mounted therein in an oblique position to the direction of movement of the saw bow during its cutting stroke, and an automatic hydraulic mechanism for lifting the bow and blade off the workpiece at the end of the cutting stroke, and for lowering the bow to engage the blade with the workpiece at the end of the return stroke to produce the desired cutting pressure of the saw blade. The saw bow is reciprocable along guides 31 in a housing 6 mounted on a pivot 7 on a frame 1 forming a tank for hydraulic fluid, the frame having a vice 3 for a workpiece 30. The saw blade 4 is disposed in the bow 5 at an angle 33 to the direction 34 of the reciprocation of the bow. The automatic hydraulic mechanism consists of a rotatably-driven shaft 8 which is mounted in a housing 35, Fig. 2 (not shown), secured to housing 6, and carries an eccentric element consisting of a pair of eccentrics of equal throw and angular position disposed in a ring 37, and an eccentric 17. The ring 37 is secured to a tubular piston rod 12 connected to a main piston 13 in a cylinder 11 mounted in the frame 1, and the eccentric 17 is abutted by the end of a rod 20 adjustably connected to an auxiliary piston 21. The pistons divide the cylinder into chambers 28, 43 and interfit to form a third chamber 26 between a recess in piston 21 and a projection on piston 13, piston 21 being urged towards piston 13 by springs 24. Each piston is provided with a one-way valve 27, 29 and the cylinder 11 is connected by a valve 16 to a filter 15 in the tank of the frame 1. The cylinder is also connected by an adjustable throttle valve 18 to a pipe 23 leading to a pressure-equalizing reservoir and a coolant nozzle. In operation, when the blade has completed its forward cutting stroke, the eccentrics 9, 91 move the rod 12 downwardly against the force of a spring 14 resulting in the saw bow and blade being lifted about the pivot 7. The eccentric 17 moves the rod 20 downwards after the start of the return stroke to move the auxiliary piston 21 away from main piston 13, fluid entering the chamber 26 through valve 29. During the return stroke, the eccentric 17 permits rod 20 and hence the piston 21 to move upwardly under the action of the springs 24, the fluid in chamber 26 passing through valve 27 into chamber 28 to move the saw bow and blade clockwise about pivot 7 until the blade engages the workpiece as the end of the rearward stroke is reached. The engagement of the blade is dependant on the volume of fluid displaced from chamber 26 and is adjusted by rotation of rod 20 which is in screw-threaded engagement with the piston 21. The throttle valve 18 remains closed during the return stroke of the saw bow, the pressure in chamber 28 being insufficient to open the valve until the forward stroke of the saw bow, because of the inclination of the blade, rocks the bow about the pivot 7 and the piston 13, because of its connection to the ring 37, is moved upwardly. The throttle valve 18 is adjustable to control the cutting pressure of the blade.
