An easily operable, highly durable cutting machine finely adjusts the miter angle of a turntable. A cutting machine includes a turntable supported in a manner rotatable horizontally to a base and including a substantially disk-shaped table body to receive a workpiece and a table extension protruding forward from the table body, a cutting machine body located above the turntable and connected in a manner swingable vertically to the turntable, and a fine angle adjuster that adjusts a rotation angle of the turntable with respect to the base and including a rack on the base, a pinion located in the table body within an area of the table body as viewed from above and engageable with the rack directly or indirectly, and an operation part operable to rotate the pinion.

Tabletop cutting machine

A benchtop cutting machine (), such as a miter saw, includes: a base (); a turntable (), which is rotatable relative to the base; and a lock mechanism (), which locks the rotation of the turntable relative to the base. The lock mechanism comprises a locking pin (), which is movable along its axial direction and locks the rotation of the turntable by engaging with the base, and a manipulatable lever (), which is pivotable in an up-down direction to release the engagement of the locking pin from the base. The manipulatable lever has a pivot point or center of rotation () that is located upward of the locking pin.

Miter saw

A cutting machine reduces cost increase associated with production equipment and has design flexibility for different types of batteries. A cutting machine for cutting a workpiece includes a cutting machine body including a cutting blade, a motor that drives the cutting blade, and a motor housing accommodating the motor, and an adapter including a body holder attached to the cutting machine body and a battery holder in which a battery to power the motor is installable.

Battery adapter for a cutting power tool

The first rotation lock mechanismis configured such that a screw force produced by a rotation operation of an operation memberis transmitted to a lock membervia a transmission bracketand a transmission rod. Through minimizing the length of the screw shaft, the transmission bracket, and the transmission rod, the position of a lock member which a screw shaftis brought into contact with and the screw force is directly applied to is arranged to be closer to a user in comparison with conventional prior art. As a result, transmission loss of the screw force can be reduced, enhancing accuracy and consistency for the fixing force with respect to the table can be improved.

Cutting device

A blade mounting device of a cutting tool includes a lock device and a blade guide. The lock device is configured to releasably lock a blade against a rod of a cutting tool. The blade guide is movable relative to the rod in an axial direction of the rod and is coupled to the lock device, so that the lock device locks and releases the blade in response to position of the blade guide in the axial direction. The blade guide has a guide recess having a bottom and capable of guiding and engaging the blade, so that the blade guide can be moved by the blade in the axial direction through engagement of the guide recess with the blade. The blade guide has a configuration other than a thin flat plate configuration.

Cutting tools

A cutting device includes a cutting unit having a rotary blade, a table for placing a workpiece thereon, and a support device vertically movably supporting the cutting unit relative to the table. The cutting unit includes a blade case. The blade case covers an upper portion of the rotary blade and has a dust discharge member for discharging dust produced at a cutting region. The cutting device further includes a dust guide device disposed on at least one of an upstream side and a downstream side of the dust discharge member with respect to a flow of the dust. A position of at least a part of the dust guide device changes relative to the dust discharge member according to change of the vertical position of the cutting unit.

Cutting devices

The present invention includes a cutting device including a table configured to accommodate a workpiece, and a cutting unit positioned on an upper side of the table and being operable to vertically move relative to the table. The cutting unit includes a cutting blade, and a grip portion disposed on a lateral side of the cutting blade and capable of being grasped by an operator in order to vertically move the cutting unit. The grip portion has a palm contact part that can be touched by a palm of the operator when the operator grasps the grip portion. The palm contact part is inclined relative to a reference line that may be perpendicular to a surface of the cutting blade.

A cutting device includes a table for placing thereon a workpiece. A tool unit supports a cutting tool and is laterally tiltably supported on the table, so that the rotational axis of the cutting tool can be inclined relative to a horizontal direction. A positioning device includes a first positioning member and a second positioning member that can interact with each other to position the tool unit at a plurality of laterally tilted positions. At least one of the first and second positioning members can be moved to change the laterally tilted position positionable by the positioning device.

The present invention includes a cutting device including a table and a cutting unit disposed on an upper side of the table and vertically movably supported by the table via a slide mechanism. The slide mechanism enables the cutting unit to slide in a sliding direction relative to the table within a plane substantially parallel to a surface of the table. A slide lock mechanism can lock and unlock the sliding movement of the cutting unit and includes an operation member operable to slide for locking and unlocking the sliding movement.

A vise assembly includes a support rod standing on a base of a bench circular sawing machine, a first arm connected to the support rod and projecting frontward, a second arm of which a rear end portion is connected to a front end portion of the first arm in such a manner that the second arm is horizontally swingable and capable of being retained at any angular position, and a clamping rod disposed at a front end portion of the second arm, configured to be movable upward and downward, and capable of holding a workpiece placed in a cutting region. Optionally, the rear end portion of the second arm is movable upward and downward and capable of being retained at any vertical position.
