<p>996,048. Sawing. A. GJERDE. May 29, 1964 [May 31, 1963], No. 22258/64. Heading B5L. An adjustable motor-driven saw comprises a frame 19 which supports a motor 20 and a bearing for a circular saw blade 22 and is connected by a pivot 18 to a cradle 13, in turn, supported by pivots 10 having an axis extending along a slot which is formed in a rotatable support 3 for the work and through which the saw blade can be raised and lowered, and a rod 31 having its ends connected by universal joints 32, 33 to a point located substantially in the rotational axis of its support and on an operating lever 26 pivoted to the frame 2 of the saw and to a point on the mounting frame 19 so located that the rod, as projected on the vertical plane through the slot, will always remain substantially vertical and, when the cradle 13 is tilted between extreme positions, passes from one side to the other of a plane through the lower joint 33 and the axis of the pivot 10 of the cradle. The rotatable support 3 is formed with a bearing ring 5 co-operating with an outer bearing ring 4 on the frame 2. An arm 7 depends from the ring 5 and supports a rail 8 of arcuate shape having its centre coincident with the pivots 10 which are rotatably received in the ring 5 and are formed as hooks 11 connected by bosses to the cradle 13 shaped as a stirrup. A narrow stirrup 14 is secured to the cradle 13 and embraces [the rail 8, the stirrup 14 having a handle 15 and screw 17 whereby the cradle can be rocked about the pivots 10 and locked in position. The cradle 13 carries the pivot 18 for the mounting frame 19 on which is the electric motor 20 and a bearing for the spindle 21 of the saw, the spindle being driven by a belt 23 from the motor 20. The frame 19 is connected by the universal joint 32 to the upper end of the rod 31, the lower end of which is connected by the universal joint 33 to the lever 26 on a pivot 25 on the frame. The lever is extended at 27 to form a foot pedal and is also connected by a rod 28 guided for vertical movement on the frame to a handle 29, a screw 30 being provided to clamp the rod in position. Rotation of the cradle 13 about the pivots 10 by the handle 15 when the screw 17 is released adjusts the saw from the vertical position to an inclined position shown dotted, the rod 31 pivoting about its lower universal joint. Depression of the foot pedal 27 or handle 29 rocks the frame 19 about its pivot 18 to raise the saw blade through the slot in the support 3 to its operative position. Both movements can be effected in any position of the rotatable support 3 which can be clamped in its adjusted position by a screw 6. A cover 34 is secured to the cradle 13 and in the vertical position of the saw blade forms part of the works supporting surface of the support 3, the cover moving with the cradle when the blade is moved to its inclined position. In other embodiments, the saw may be operated by foot or by hand only, the lever 26 being single armed and pivoted to a near part of the frame.</p> |
