RAPID-REPLACING STRUCTURE OF MULTIFUNCTIONAL SAW
20170291277 · 2017-10-12 ·

The present invention relates to a rapid-replacing structure of multifunctional saw, including a head housing, a tool rest and an output device, wherein the output device comprises an output shaft. It also includes a quick-change device that consists of a rapid-replacing buckle, an eccentric block, a movable rod, a collet chuck, a tensioning rod and a compression spring. The rapid-replacing buckle and the eccentric block are connected with the top of the head housing through a straight pin. The movable rod is arranged in the output shaft, with its top end closely connected to the eccentric block and its bottom end connected to the tensioning rod by screw thread. The rapid-replacing structure of the multifunctional saw can realize the purpose of blade removal and replacement simply by shifting the rapid-replacing buckle on the upper side of the head housing, without using other auxiliary means, so it is simple and fast to operate.

Clamping Apparatus with Control Mechanism for Spring-Actuated Lever
20170282329 · 2017-10-05 ·

A clamping apparatus with a control mechanism includes a cam, a cam post, a handle, and a handle plate. The cam is configured to rotate into a clamped position in which the clamping apparatus is in a clamped state and an unclamped position in which the clamping apparatus is in an unclamped state. The cam post is rotatable with the cam. The handle is movable into a first position and a second position. The handle plate is rotatable with the handle. The handle plate is configured to rotate the cam post in a first direction when the handle moves from the first position to the second position. The handle plate is configured to rotate in a second direction without rotating the cam post in the second direction for a predetermined distance when the handle moves from the second position to the first position. The first direction is opposite to the second direction.

Chuck
09776252 · 2017-10-03 · ·

A rotatable chuck for clamping a shank portion of a rotatably operating machining tool includes a rotatable chuck body provided with a cylindrical bore concentric with a rotation axis of the chuck body. The circumferential surfaces of a clamping portion of the bore are arranged to apply a clamping force around the circumference of the shank portion of the tool when it is mounted in the chuck to fixate the tool in the chuck. The chuck is provided with auxiliary pull out preventing means for preventing inadvertent pull out of the tool in the axial direction of the bore during machining operation, as well as auxiliary rotary preventing means for preventing inadvertent rotation in at least one direction in relation to the chuck during machining operation. The auxiliary pull out and rotary preventing means include an attachment member positionable in an inner portion of the bore and attachable to the shank portion to be clamped, such that the tool and the attachment member will be prevented from being pulled apart in the axial direction and from being rotated in at least one direction in relation to each other.
