Abstract
A blade guide of a band saw machine includes a main member, on which two wheels, two holding blocks, a pressing block, and a pressure sensor are provided. The main member is provided with a slot, a hole, and an opening. The wheels are pivoted on the main member and received in the slot. The holding blocks are received in the hole, and a band saw passage is formed between the holding blocks. The band saw passage is communicated with the slot for a band saw passing therethrough. The pressing block is received in the hole to contact the band saw in the band saw passage. The pressure sensor is received in the opening and contacting the pressing block to detect a pressure of the pressing block.
Claims8
A blade guide of a band saw machine, comprising:
- a main member having a slot, a hole, and an opening, wherein the slot is communicated with the hole, and the opening is communicated with the hole;
- two wheels pivoted on the main member and received in the slot;
- two holding blocks received in the hole, wherein a band saw passage is formed between the holding blocks, and the band saw passage is communicated with the slot for a band saw passing therethrough;
- a pressing block received in the hole to contact the band saw in the band saw passage;
- and
- a pressure sensor received in the opening and contacting the pressing block to detect a pressure of the pressing block.
A band saw machine, comprising:
- a base;
- a driving wheel and a driven wheel pivoted on the base respectively;
- a band saw looped over the driving wheel and the driven wheel;
- a motor connecting to the driving wheel to turn the driving wheel;
- a controller provided on the base, and electrically connected to the motor to control the motor to turn;
- and
- two blade guides provided on the base, wherein at least one of the blade guides comprises:
- a main member having a slot, a hole, and an opening, wherein the slot is communicated with the hole, and the opening is communicated with the hole;
- two wheels pivoted on the main member and received in the slot;
- two holding blocks received in the hole, wherein a band saw passage is formed between the holding blocks, and the band saw passage is communicated with the slot;
- wherein the band saw passes through the blade guide via a passage between the wheels and the band saw passage between the holding blocks;
- a pressing block received in the hole to contact the band saw in the band saw passage;
- and
- a pressure sensor received in the opening and contacting the pressing block to detect a pressure of the pressing block;
- wherein the pressure sensor is electrically connected to the controller to transmit a detecting signal to the controller for the controller to control the motor accordingly.
