A tile saw includes a saw unit having a motor and a saw blade driven by the motor, a table through which the saw blade at least partially protrudes, and a pan positioned underneath the table and including a channel configured to receive at least a portion of the saw blade. The channel extends along a longitudinal axis perpendicular to a rotational axis of the saw blade such that fluid moves through the channel in a first direction in response to rotation of the saw blade. An interior wall is positioned adjacent the channel. The interior wall is obliquely oriented relative to the longitudinal axis of the channel to redirect the fluid in a second direction that is different from the first direction.

A power tool such as a table saw includes a cutting blade, a motor that drives the blade, and a dust management assembly for collecting cutting debris. The position and angle of the blade can be adjusted relative to a table top of the saw. The dust management assembly is disposed below the table top in such a way so as to change positions in concert with the blade, and includes a blade cover that surrounds a portion of the blade; a dust shield that is pivotably connected to the table top in such a way that an inner surface of the dust shield faces toward an outer wall of the blade cover; and a dust port that is detachably connected to the blade cover and is configured collect debris generated by a cutting action of the blade.

A self-dust extraction dustless table saw includes a table saw frame, saw table, and saw blade installed to the table saw frame. An upper and a lower blade guards are respectively mounted to upper and lower sides of the saw table, the saw blade is mounted in the upper and lower blade guards, and the lower blade guard includes a lower left and lower-right blade guards. Several interval guide barriers are installed on the inner walls of the lower left and lower right blade guards, and the guide barriers transport the dust to a dust outlet on the side of the lower right blade guard.

A compound saw includes a base, a housing, a transmission component and a table, the rear end of the table is rotatably connected to the housing, and is engaged with the cutter head through the transmission component, so as to expose the cutter head out of the first cutting slit or out of the second cutting slit when the front end of the table swings upward and downward. The cutter head of the compound saw can be switched between the bench cutting mode and the miter cutting mode. Accordingly, on one hand, the structure for switching between modes is simple and does not require the cooperation of too many parts; on the other hand, the switchover can be realized simply by manually operating the movable bench, without too many operations.

A table saw has a base assembly, a table assembly supported by the base assembly, the table assembly, and a saw assembly supported by at least one of the table assembly and the base assembly. The saw assembly has a saw blade extending through the table assembly. The base assembly has at least one foot having a substantially horizontal surface, a substantially vertical surface, and a curved surface disposed between the substantially horizontal surface and the substantially vertical surface. The substantially vertical surface is substantially coplanar with a surface of the table assembly so that the table saw can be disposed on the substantially vertical surface and the surface of the table assembly.

In some embodiments, a cutting system including a movable blade or a reciprocating blade operably coupled to a motor is disclosed, wherein the cutting system comprises a diverting feature. In some embodiments, a diverter proximity relative to the movable blade or reciprocating blade is selected to facilitate diversion of a material during cutting. In at least one embodiment, the movable blade may be movable blade for an oscillating tool. A cutting system according to the present invention may be coupled to a container, for example, a residential trash container or a residential recycling container.

A signal switch for a power tool has a paddle supported by a rocker that extends into a switch housing to pivot an actuating member. A circuit board is attached to a bottom of the switch. At least one micro-switch extends from the circuit board into the switch in position to be actuated by the actuating member depending on a position of the paddle. The circuit board includes a connector that is configured to connect to a cable, such as a ribbon cable. Circuit traces on the circuit board are electrically connected to the micro-switches and the electrical connector. The interior of the switch housing is sealed from the exterior environment so that the mechanical components of the switch are shielded from the environment.
