Abstract
In one aspect, a system can include a saw table defining a saw table surface and having a coolant reservoir; a saw coupled to the saw table; a table defining a table surface and having a plurality of post brackets, wherein the table surface can be coplanar with the saw table surface; a guttering assembly coupled to the table, wherein the guttering assembly can include a trough support coupled to a corresponding one of the post brackets and a trough piece coupled to the trough support. The trough piece can form a trough configured to collect coolant draining off the table surface and channel the coolant to the coolant reservoir.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a saw table defining a saw table surface and comprising a coolant reservoir;
- a saw coupled to the saw table;
- a table defining a table surface and comprising a plurality of post brackets, wherein the table surface is coplanar with the saw table surface;
- a guttering assembly coupled to the table, wherein the guttering assembly comprises:
- a trough support coupled to a corresponding one of the post brackets;
- and
- a trough piece coupled to the trough support,
- wherein the trough piece forms a trough configured to collect coolant draining off the table surface and channel the coolant to the coolant reservoir.
A guttering assembly for a cold saw system comprising:
- a plurality of trough support brackets, wherein each trough support bracket is configured to be coupled to a corresponding post bracket of a table of the cold saw system;
- at least one trough segment, wherein each trough segment is configured to extend underneath a table surface of the table between adjacent ones of the trough support brackets;
- and
- a plurality of back trough brackets, wherein each back trough bracket is configured to be coupled to a corresponding post bracket.
A method of assembling a cold saw system comprising:
- coupling a plurality of trough support brackets to corresponding ones of a plurality of post brackets of a table of the cold saw system;
- coupling a plurality of trough segments to the plurality of trough support brackets to form a trough;
- and
- fluidly coupling the trough to a coolant reservoir of the cold saw system.
