Abstract
A miter cut fine adjustment mechanism for use with a cutting tool for finely adjusting the angle of cut. The miter cut fine adjustment mechanism has a yoke mounted to a lever, the lever attached to a cutting tool for moving the cutting tool into a different angle of cut. An insert is movably secured between the opposing side walls of the yoke for detachably securing the lever to a worktable and the insert is laterally movable for finely adjusting the angle of cut.
Claims16
A fine adjustment mechanism for use with a cutting tool attached to a base, the base rotatably attached to a worktable, the fine adjustment mechanism comprising:
- a yoke having two opposing sidewalls, the side-walls attached to the base;
- a lever attached to yoke, the lever for rotating the base to a first cutting position;
- an insert rotatably attached to the yoke between the opposing sidewalls;
- a protuberance attached to the insert, the protuberance positioned to contact to worktable;
- wherein rotation of the insert moves the protuberance against the worktable such that the base rotates to a second cutting position.
A cutting tool assembly comprising:
- a worktable;
- a base rotatably attached to the worktable;
- a cutting tool attached to the base;
- a yoke having two opposing sidewalls, the sidewalls attached to the base;
- a lever attached to the yoke, the lever for rotating the base to a first cutting position;
- an insert laterally slidably attached to the yoke between the opposing sidewalls;
- and
- a protuberance attached to the insert, the protuberance positioned to contact the worktable;
- wherein the lateral slide of the insert moves the protuberance against the worktable such that the base rotates to a second cutting position.
A cutting tool assembly comprising:
- a worktable;
- a base rotatably attached to the worktable;
- a cutting tool attached to the base;
- a first means for rotating the base to a first cutting position;
- and
- a second means for rotating the base rotates to a second cutting position.
The cutting tool assembly of claim 14 wherein the insert has a threaded cavity and the opposing sidewalls each has an aperture therethrough.
