Abstract
A double-sided miter box for a panel saw machine tool has two interconnected contact rails which can be moved relative to a driven tool. The contact rails are pivotable about a rotation axis. An electrical measurement transducer system which may include a magnetically coded tape and a non-contact sensor, which measures and displays the pivoting cycle of the contact rails.
Claims14
A double-sided miter box for machine tool panel saws having a driven tool, comprising:
- two contact rails (2, 4), which can be moved relative to the driven tool (14) and which are connected to one another so as to enclose a right angle between them and which are jointly mounted pivotably about a rotation axis (16) disposed on an angle bisector near the driven tool (14);
- an electrical measurement transducer for measuring;
- and
- a display (10) for indicating a pivoting angle of the contact rails (2, 4) relative to a tool plane (12), characterized in that the electric measurement transducer comprises a magnetically coded measuring tape (18), which is disposed about the rotation axis (16) along a graduated partial circle and
- a sensor (20) which senses the measuring tape (18) without contact therewith, a value measured by the sensor being indicated on the display (10) as an angular measurement of the pivoting angle.
