Abstract
A cutting system for cutting profiles, the cutting system includes a cutting machine and a support device, the cutting system varying between an assembled configuration wherein the cutting machine is secured to the support device, and a disassembled configuration wherein the cutting machine and the support device are separated, and the cutting system includes a security system.
Claims18
A cutting system suitable for cutting profiles, the cutting system comprising a cutting machine and a support device,
- the support device being adapted to ensure, by clamping, a reversible hold of the support device on the profile intended to be cut by the cutting machine,
- the cutting system varying between an assembled configuration in which the cutting machine is engaged with the support device, and a disassembled configuration in which the cutting machine and the support device are separated,
- the cutting machine comprising:
- a rotatably movable cutting disc,
- an acceleration control capable of being activated by the hand of a user of the cutting system,
- a thermal energy drive motor, capable of occupying a first operational mode in which the drive motor is stopped, a second operational mode in which the drive motor is running at idle speed, and a third operational mode in which the drive motor is running at a rotational speed strictly higher than that adopted in the second operational mode and depending on the actuation applied to the acceleration control,
- a transmission mechanism converting a rotational movement of the drive motor into a rotational movement of the cutting disc and capable of rotatably driving the cutting disc when the drive motor occupies the third operational mode,
- a control component piloting the drive motor and taking as input a data representative of the actuation applied to the acceleration control,
- the cutting system comprising a security system including a determination device capable of automatically occupying a first state as soon as the cutting system adopts the assembled configuration and of automatically occupying a second state as soon as the cutting system adopts the disassembled configuration,
- the security system comprising electrical and/or software means associated with the control component configured so that from an initial configuration where the drive motor is in the second operational mode or in the third operational mode, the cutting system is selectively placed in:
- a first operating mode in which the drive motor is held by the control component in the second operational mode, the first operating mode being automatically applied when the following two conditions are simultaneously verified:
- the determination device occupies the second state,
- an absence of an actuation of the acceleration control,
- a second operating mode in which the control component prohibits any transition to the third operational mode, the second operating mode being automatically applied when the following two conditions are simultaneously verified:
- the determination device occupies the second state,
- the presence of an actuation of the acceleration control.
