Abstract
Elastic mounting for the rod-shaped inserted tooth (1) of a circular saw on a blade body (2). A problem is to eliminate loosening and disengagement of teeth caused by an impact-like loading on teeth and occurring after a relatively short service life. A blade body (2) or a tooth (1) is provided with an elastic strip (5 or 6) whose spring force (H), together with the flattening force exerted by a locking rivet (4'), urges a tooth against those points (a and b) in its fitting notch which also receive the bearing forces exerted by a shearing force of sawing.
Claims6
In the mounting of a saw tooth on a circular saw blade which has a blade axis and body with a blade body edge,
- a saw tooth notch formed on the edge of the blade body of said circular saw blade, said notch comprising opposed leading and following edges joined by a curved notch bottom having front and rear corners,
- a saw tooth having a rear surface which is supported to be pressed against the rear corner of the tooth notch which is further away relative to the blade axis,
- an elastic strip pressing the tooth front surface,
- and a locking rivet mounted on said blade body adjacent to the bottom of the tooth notch and pressing the leading tooth edge against the leading edge of the notch, said rivet being positioned behind the tooth and adjacent to the notch bottom.
