A power saw system including a workstation having a table top surface, a saw arm coupled to the workstation at a first hinge member, the saw arm being configured to pivot toward and away from the table top surface about the first hinge member, a circular saw coupled to a distal end of the saw arm, and a second hinge member provided to the saw arm between the first hinge member and the circular saw, the second hinge member configured such that circular saw can be selectively rotated about the second hinge member in a direction lateral to an axis of the saw arm.

A saw slide device allows a user to easily and accurately move a saw for proper alignment with a cutting material or workpiece. The saw slide device generally includes a sliding plate configured to support an associated saw, an adjustment or alignment mechanism configured to move the sliding plate, and a base frame which supports the sliding plate and adjustment mechanism.

A bevel angle lock and detent system for a miter saw includes a first locking unit fixed relative to the turntable and a second locking unit coupled to a bevel arm of the miter saw. An actuator is moveable between a first position and a second position to move the second locking unit relative to the first locking unit. In the first position, a brake member of the second locking unit is engaged with an arcuate surface of the first locking unit to lock a saw unit relative to a turntable. In the second position, the brake member is disengaged from the arcuate surface, thereby permitting pivoting movement of the saw unit, and a detent member of the second locking unit is engageable a detent aperture of the first locking unit to locate the saw unit relative to the turntable at one predetermined bevel angle.

A miter saw has a base assembly, a table rotatably disposed on the base assembly, a support section rotatably connected to the table, a guide bar fixedly attached to and extending forwardly from the support section, and a saw assembly sliding along the guide bar. The saw assembly is pivotable downwardly for cutting a workpiece disposed on the table. A handle is disposed adjacent to a forward end of the guide bar. The handle is movable between a first position for fixing a rotational position of the support section relative to the table, and a second position for allowing rotational movement of the support section relative to the table.

A miter saw has a base assembly and a rotatable table disposed on the base assembly. The rotatable table is rotatable about a substantially vertical miter axis and has a substantially horizontal workpiece-supporting plane. A saw assembly is connected to the table and includes a blade. The blade is movable downwardly from a first position where the blade is above the workpiece-supporting plane to a second position where a portion of the blade is below the workpiece-supporting plane. The base assembly has a top surface and a first handle disposed on the top surface, with a first hole on the top surface extending through the base assembly, the first hole being configured to allow a user to extend the user's hand therethrough and grip the first handle.

The invention relates to an apparatus arranged to secure a portable cutting machine on an elongated profiled object, said apparatus comprising a base adapted to be disposed on an upper surface of the profiled object and at least one arm mounted to the base at right angles to the main extension of said object; the base comprising two parallel, spaced plates with an opening for receiving the object; each plate comprising a central, first contact surface arranged to contact the upper surface of the object; and a second inwardly angled contact surface extending from a first end of the plate towards a corresponding side surface of the object; that the base further comprises a rocker arm having a first end, a central portion and a second end; which rocker arm is mounted pivotable about a first axis at right angles to the parallel plates.

Techniques utilize a fence assembly which includes a fence member constructed and arranged to (i) install on a saw base and (ii) provide a first surface that restricts movement of an object in a first direction when the fence member is installed on the saw base. The fence assembly further includes a stop member constructed and arranged to provide a second surface that restricts movement of the object in a second direction that is different from the first direction when the stop member is in a fixed position relative to the fence member. The fence member further includes positioning hardware constructed and arranged to position the stop member in the fixed position relative to the fence member. Actuation of the positioning hardware enables the stop member to be adjusted to accommodate different object for cutting.

The invention relates to an electric saw comprising: a frame (2) mounted on a base (1), a cutting head (3) mounted on the frame by using a rotating shaft (4) in the vertical direction and an adjustable stop (5) limiting the descent of the head and the cutting depth. The adjustable stop (5) comprises: a rod (51) mounted in a through manner, with the possibility of longitudinal sliding, in a passage (53) defined in the cutting head (3) and facing a fixed stop (21) defined in the frame (2); and a screw (54) for lateral tightening and fixing of the rod (51) inside the passage (53). The screw (54) comprises an actuation knob (55) and is threadedly mounted in a hole defined in the cutting head (3) and leading into the mounting passage (53) of the rod (51).

The disclosure provides a miter saw that includes a base, a table, a cutting assembly, and a linkage assembly. The table defines a supporting surface and is rotatably coupled to the base to rotate about a miter axis. The cutting assembly includes a housing that supports a motor to which a saw blade is rotatably coupled, and a handle that extends from the housing. The cutting assembly is pivotable between raised and lowered positions and is movable relative to the table between forward and rearward positions. The linkage assembly is pivotally coupled to the table and the cutting assembly. The linkage assembly includes a floating link, a first link, and a second link. The floating link is pivotally coupled to the cutting assembly. The first link is pivotally coupled to the table and the floating link. The second link is pivotally coupled to the table and to the floating link.

A saw device includes a motor having a motor output shaft and a drivetrain that includes a gear train and a chain drive. The gear train has a first gear fixedly connected to the motor output shaft and a second gear fixedly connected to an intermediate shaft, the first gear meshing with the second gear so as to transmit rotation from the motor output shaft to the second gear. The chain drive has a driving sprocket fixedly connected to the intermediate shaft, a driven sprocket, and a chain configured to transmit rotation of the driving sprocket to rotation of the driven sprocket. The saw device further includes an arbor shaft fixedly connected to the driven sprocket, the arbor shaft configured to mount a saw blade such that the saw blade rotates with the arbor shaft, and an upper guard configured to enclose at least a portion of the saw blade.
