Abstract
A rotatable member is mountable on a tabletop of a power tool apparatus. The rotatable member includes a first work surface and a second work surface. The first work surface is on a first side of the rotatable member. The second work surface is on a second side of the rotatable member. The second side is different from the first side. The rotatable member is configured to move into a first position such that the first work surface is level with a surface of the tabletop. In addition, the rotatable member is configured to move into a second position such that the second work surface is level with the surface of the tabletop.
Claims20
A rotatable member mountable on a tabletop of a power tool apparatus, the rotatable member comprising:
- a first work surface on a first side of the rotatable member;
- and
- a second work surface on a second side of the rotatable member, the second side being different from the first side,
- wherein:
- the tabletop includes a top surface defining a first plane;
- and
- the rotatable member is configured to move into (a) a first position in which only the first work surface is coplanar with the first plane, and (b) a second position in which only the second work surface is coplanar with the first plane.
A rotatable member configured to rotate about a rotational axis that extends parallel to a main surface of a tabletop, the rotatable member comprising:
- a first work surface on a first side of the rotatable member;
- and
- a second work surface on a second side of the rotatable member, the second side being different from the first side;
- wherein:
- the rotatable member is configured to be in (a) a locked state in which the rotatable member is held in place and (b) an unlocked state in which the rotatable member is configured to (i) transition from the first work surface to the second work surface, and (ii) transition from the second work surface to the first work surface.
A power tool apparatus comprising:
- a turntable rotatable about a first rotational axis, the turntable including a rotatable member with a plurality of work surfaces including a first work surface on a first side of the rotatable member and a second work surface on a second side of the rotatable member;
- and
- a power tool configured to operate on a selected one of the plurality of work surfaces of the rotatable member,
- wherein:
- the rotatable member is rotatable about a second rotational axis, the second rotational axis being perpendicular to the first rotational axis.
