Diamond segmented saw blade

摘要

A diamond segmented saw blade having a steel center is provided with a plurality of sockets about the rim and a plurality of cutting tip supports having diamond impregnated tips. Each socket is provided with an upper surface inclined upwardly and inwardly and a tapered or wedge-shaped dovetail groove. Each support is provided with a depending tenon. The surfaces adjacent the tenon are inclined upwardly and inwardly complementary to the surfaces adjacent the socket. The tenon is similarly wedge-shaped to fit in the dovetail groove so that the support and socket are firmly interlocked to insure easy and free exchange of diamond impregnated tips.
