20090241745 | GUARD, RIVING KNIFE, AND ANTI-KICKBACK PAWL ASSEMBLY - In various embodiments, a saw accessory assembly can be configured to be attached to a saw. In at least one embodiment, the assembly can include a first component and a second component, wherein at least one of the first and second components can include a visual guide configured to assist an operator in assembling the first and second components. In other various embodiments, at least one of the first and second components can include a visual guide configured to assist the operator in adjusting the first and second components in a predetermined sequence. | 10-01-2009 |
20090241746 | SAW ACCESSORIES AND CLAMP FOR USE THEREWITH - In at least one form of the invention, a clamp can be used to attach a saw accessory to a saw. In various embodiments, the clamp can comprise first and second clamping members, an actuator, and a controller. In various embodiments, the saw accessory can be disposed between the first and second clamping members where at least one of the first and second clamping members can be moved by the actuator in order to clamp the saw accessory therebetween. In at least one such embodiment, the controller can be in electrical and/or fluid communication with the actuator to activate the actuator. In various embodiments, the controller can be activated by an operator from a location proximate to the operator but remote from a blade of the saw. | 10-01-2009 |
20090241748 | SAFETY DEVICES FOR SAWS - In various embodiments, a saw can include a work surface and a blade at least partially extending through the work surface. In at least one embodiment, the saw can further include a sensor and a light emitter, wherein the light emitter can be configured to emit a first light beam and a second light beam onto at least a portion of the work surface. In various embodiments, the sensor can be can be configured to detect a plurality of saw conditions and, owing to communication between the sensor and the light emitter, the light emitter can be configured to emit the first light beam onto the work surface when the sensor detects a first saw condition and emit the second light beam onto the work surface when the sensor detects a second saw condition. | 10-01-2009 |
20110120741 | AUXILIARY HANDLE FOR USE WITH A POWER TOOL - An auxiliary handle for use with a power tool includes a first clamp for engaging a housing of the power tool at a first location, and a second clamp for engaging the housing at a second location. The second clamp is movable independent from the first clamp in a first direction toward the first clamp to couple the auxiliary handle to the housing and the second clamp movable independent from the first clamp in a second direction away from the first clamp to uncouple the auxiliary handle from the housing. The auxiliary handle further includes a grip operable to move the second clamp in at least one of the first and the second directions, and together the first clamp and the second clamp surround only a portion of a chuck of the power tool. | 05-26-2011 |
