083477200 | Work-support includes passageway for tool (e.g., slotted table) | 15 |
20080223189 | Cutting devices - A cutting device includes a lock device for locking and unlocking a cover against a cover support. The cover includes a first cover removably mounted to the cover support and a second cover removably mounted to the first cover. The lock device is operable in a first mode, a second mode and a third mode. The first mode prevents the first cover from being removed from the cover support and prevents the second cover from being removed from the first cover. The second mode permits the first cover from being removed from the cover support but prevents the second cover from being removed from the first cover. The third mode permits the second cover to be removed from the first cover. | 09-18-2008 |
20090158906 | Cutting devices - A cutting including a saw blade protruding from an upper surface of the table can include a splitter positioned on the front side with respect to a cutting direction of the saw blade and in alignment with the saw blade.

A kickback preventing claw member prevents the workpiece from being forced upward by the saw blade after the workpiece has been cut by the saw blade. A mount frame is detachably mounted to an upper portion of the splitter. The guard device and the kickback preventing claw member are supported on the mount frame, so that the guard device and the kickback preventing claw can be removed separately or together from the splitter. | 06-25-2009 |

20110048207 | TABLE SAW WITH LINKAGE DROP SYSTEM - A table saw in one embodiment includes a swing arm assembly movable along a swing path between a first swing arm position whereat a portion of a shaping device supported by the swing arm assembly extends above a work-piece support surface and a second swing arm position, a first link arm with a first tracking component and a first slot, the first tracking component slidingly engaged with the swing arm assembly, a second link arm with a second tracking component engaged with the first slot, an actuator configured to pivot the second link arm from a first position whereat force from the first link arm acting on the tracking component is directed at a second link arm pivot toward a second position whereat the force is not directed at the second link arm pivot, and a control system configured to actuate the actuator in response to a sensed condition. | 03-03-2011 |
20110203438 | Table saw insert with lock-down mechanism - Inserts for table saws are disclosed. The table inserts are equipped with a toolless locking mechanism that mechanically holds the insert in place and which allows for the installation and removal of the insert without the use of tools. The locking mechanism is easy to lock and unlock and yet robust enough to hold a zero-clearance insert in place. | 08-25-2011 |
20120255414 | Modular Laser Alignment Device for Power Tool - A table saw including a table top having an opening configured to receive a blade. A cutting tool is configured to rotate the blade within the opening of the table top. A light alignment apparatus is configured to be selectively mounted in an upright manner at a plurality of locations on the table saw and direct a beam of light on to the table top from each of the plurality of locations on the table saw. The plurality of locations on the table saw include a first location on the table top and a second location on the cutting tool. | 10-11-2012 |
20130068078 | Table Saw with Reset Mechanism - A power tool in one embodiment includes a swing arm movable along a swing arm path between an upper first swing arm position and a lower second swing arm position, a latch hold mechanism movable between a first latch hold position adjacent to the swing path and a second latch hold position whereat at least a portion of the latch hold mechanism is within the swing path, an actuator configured to force the swing arm assembly away from the first swing arm position and toward the second swing arm position, a swing arm reset configured to pivot the swing arm from the second swing arm position to the first swing arm position, a latch hold reset configured to pivot the latch hold mechanism from the second latch hold position to the first latch hold position, and a control system configured to control the actuator. | 03-21-2013 |
