Rip fence with locking device
A moveable rip fence of a table saw includes a housing including an elongated opening on a top, a seat secured to an underside of top of the housing, the seat having a lower through hole, and a stop member across two sides of the housing, a lever pivotably fastened in the elongated opening; a link pivotably interconnecting the lever and a spring biased rod, an inverted L-shaped limit member secured across two sides of the housing; a clamping member having a top secured by a support member and including an intermediate hole member and a projecting base member; and a locking member including a lower wedge member fastened on the base member, and a flexible inclined member on a top. The lever is flush with the top of the housing in a locked position. A pressing of a rear portion of the lever unlocks the rip fence.
RIP FENCE ADJUSTMENT STRUCTURE FOR SAW MACHINE
A rip fence adjustment structure includes a guide rail, a first slide slidably coupled to the guide rail and fixedly connected with a rip fence, a micro-adjustment device mounted in the first slide, a second slide slidably coupled to the guide rail and connected to the first slide by the micro-adjustment device for movement with the first slide. Thus, after moved the first slide to achieve coarse adjustment of the position of the rip fence, a second locking member is fastened up to lock the second slide, and then the micro-adjustment device is operated to drive the first slide in moving the rip fence, and then a first locking member is fastened up to lock the first slide, achieving fine adjustment of the position of the rip fence.
TABLE SAW WITH SCALE SYSTEM
A table saw includes a worktable, a left extension frame and a right extension frame respectively slidably mounted at left and right sides of the worktable, a scale unit including a first scale, a second scale and a third scale respectively mounted at the worktable, the left extension frame and the right extension frame, and an indicator unit including a first indicator, a second indicator and a third indicator respectively disposed to aim at the first, second and third scales. Thus, when operating the table saw to cut a workpiece, the user can selectively pull out the left or right extension frame and use the corresponding scale and indicator for quickly judging the correctness of the length to be cut.

Fences for table saws
Fences for use in table saws are disclosed. One embodiment may include an actuator, handle or lever to lock and unlock the fence from the table, where the actuator, handle or lever is positioned substantially above the tabletop and substantially within the perimeter of the table (including any rail associated with the table). Another embodiment may include an actuator, handle or lever to lock and unlock the fence from the table, where the actuator, handle or lever is positioned along a top surface of the fence and configured so that the fence unclamps from the saw when the actuator, handle or lever is pressed.

REVERSIBLE FLIP-AWAY WORK STOP FOR STRUT SYSTEMS
A reversible flip-away work-stop for strut systems. The reversible flip-way work stop includes a first component allowing a work stop positioning plate to pivot in a semi-circular motion allowing the work stop positioning plate to be moved and immediately configured in a right-handed configuration or a left-handed configuration without manual disassembly and reassembly in a strut in a strut system. A second component allowing the work stop positioning plate to be micro-adjusted to measurements including thousands of an inch for precisely measuring a material to be cut. A third component includes a pre-determined length to exactly match an alignment of a front face of the work stop positioning plate allowing a measurement to be read on a measuring component in the strut on the strut system without obstruction. The third component also including a pre-determined width and shape matching a width and a shape of a measuring component in the strut on the strut system allowing easy movement of the reversible flip-away work stop within the strut in the strut system and providing the ability to add a custom measuring component to the strut system.
Table saw with fence alignment system and methods
A table saw includes a frame; a saw having a cutting blade supported by the frame; first and second rails extending along opposite sides of the frame; a table supported by the frame; and a fence extending across the table between the first and second rail. A fence holder removably secures the fence to the first rail. The fence holder has a housing and an alignment arrangement configured to balance opposing forces between the fence holder housing and the first rail to hold the fence in a fixed angle relative to the first and second rails.

Table saw with a rip fence locking device
A table saw includes a locking device disposed on a rip fence device to couple a moving unit of the rip fence device to a rail unit of a worktable device. The locking device includes a locking pin extending and movable along an axis relative to the moving unit, and a turning member turnable about the axis to move the locking pin along the axis so as to lock or unlock the moving unit to or from the rail unit. An extending direction of the axis is parallel to the upper surface so as to render the turning operation of the turning member quick and convenient.
