US Patent:

Filed:

Mar 5, 2018

Appl. No.:

15/911667

Inventors:

- Tualatin OR, US
James F. W. Wright - Sherwood OR, US

Assignee:

SawStop Holding LLC - Tualatin OR

International Classification:

B23D 45/06

Abstract:

Elevation mechanisms for table saws and anti-backdrive mechanisms for use in elevation mechanisms for table saws are disclosed. The anti-backdrive mechanisms typically include three sub-assemblies: an input assembly, an output assembly, and a fixed assembly. The anti-backdrive mechanisms prevent a torque related to the output assembly from changing the blade elevation. For example, the weight of the blade and the structure supporting the blade is prevented from backdriving the elevation mechanism and allowing the blade to drop.

Assignee:

SD3, LLC - Tualatin OR

International Classification:

B27B 27/10
B27B 27/02

Abstract:

Extension rails for table saws are disclosed. Some of the disclosed extension rails can be attached to a table saw without a user having to manipulate a lever or knob. Extension rails particularly relevant to portable table saws such as jobsite and bench-top table saws are disclosed, including extension rails that can provide 48″ or more of cutting capacity on jobsite and/or bench-top table saws. A method of attaching extension rails to a table saw is disclosed that does not require the use of a tool or the manipulation of a knob or clamp.
