A modular cutting-support element with suction in a machine for automatic cutting of sheet material by means of blades, includes a plurality of bristles arranged in the same single line, at least some of the bristles each having a base rigidly connected to a bearing plate intended to be mounted on a support, a head opposite the base on which a sheet material to be cut is intended to rest, and a stem connecting the head to the base, the largest cross-section of which is strictly included in the largest cross-section of the head, the bearing plate comprising, on each of its side surfaces, a plurality of transverse channels for the passage of suction air providing communication between an upper surface of the bearing plate from which the bristles extend and an inner surface opposite the upper surface.

A folding cutting mat having a first and second side boards and a flexible connecting plate. The first and second side boards respectively include a cutting surface, a back surface and a waved joining edge. The first and second side boards are connected to each other through the waved joining edges to form a folding portion. The flexible connecting plate is bonded on the back surfaces of the first and second side boards through a bonding material. The waved joining edge is formed with first and second end sides. A plurality of unit blocks is formed between the first and second ends in continuous and staggered distributions. A center line is defined between the first and second ends to divide each of the unit blocks into first and second surface areas. The distribution area of the bonding material covers the second surface areas of each of the unit blocks.

A support for enabling cutting of a linear product, such as an eavestrough debris guard, is disclosed. The eavestrough debris guard has a top, two sides, a bottom, and a non-linear profile. The support includes a contoured top complementary to a bottom portion of the non-linear profile. The support includes a plurality of surfaces extending from the contoured top positioned to engage with the two sides of the linear product. The support includes a plurality of contoured portions each coupled to one of the surfaces positioned to engage with the top of the linear product. The support includes a gap passing through the contoured top and the plurality of surfaces shaped and dimensioned to allow passage of at least a portion of a cutting tool.

The present invention relates to a yarn clearer for a workstation of a textile machine with a cutting device for clearing out defects from a yarn, as well as a cutting device for a yarn clearer which is configured to be arranged on a workstation of a textile machine, with a cutting knife with a cutting edge adjustable between a rest position and a cutting position, and an anvil arranged on an anvil carrier in an operating position in which a stop surface of the anvil interacts with the cutting edge of the cutting knife in the cutting position. In order to provide a yarn clearer with a cutting device as well as a cutting device with a cutting knife and an anvil, which is characterised by a long service life, there is provision for the anvil to have at least two stop surfaces which are configured to be arranged on the anvil carrier in the operating position and is adjustably arranged on the anvil carrier for the selection of the stop surface which is configured to be brought into an active connection with the cutting edge.

The invention relates to a system made of an electronic display device having a display screen for displaying augmented reality, an electronic memory, and a cutting device for cutting planar cutting stock, e.g., paperboard, corrugated cardboard, film, textile, plastic, foam, or wooden slabs or sheets. The system has a computer unit for computing a position and alignment of the display device in relation to the cutting device. The display device is designed to be worn by a user and positioned in the field of vision of the user. The system is designed to display to the user retrieved cutting-stock-related information by means of the display screen in a manner readable by the user in the field of vision of the user, adapted to the position and alignment of the display device in relation to the cutting device, and linked to an actual and/or setpoint position of the cutting stock.

An apparatus for modifying a sheet of a material (e.g., paper, cardstock, a plastic film, foil, fabric, etc.), or a substrate, includes a base, a handle and a plurality of tools held by the handle. The tools may be removably secured to the handle, and may be arranged in a variety of different ways. Each tool is capable of interacting with the substrate in a manner that will modify (e.g., cut, score, perforate, mark, etc.) the substrate. The handle is capable of being translated, or moved, at least partially across the substrate and of causing the tools to concurrently interact with and modify a plurality of laterally discrete, a substantially linear, substantially parallel locations of the substrate as the handle is translated at least partially across the substrate. Modular tools that may be used with an apparatus that holds a plurality of tools or with hand-held handles are also disclosed, as are methods for simultaneously modifying a plurality of laterally discrete, a substantially linear, substantially parallel locations of a substrate.
