Claims18
A woodworking machine with a safety feeder, the woodworking machine having a power source with a drive axle configured to drive a cutter, with the drive axle having a rotating axis on a first phantom axis, and the safety feeder comprising:
- a transmission system including a drive shaft having a rotating axis on a second phantom axis;
- a coupling system interconnecting the drive axle and the drive shaft and configured to cause the drive axle and the drive shaft to rotate simultaneous, with the coupling system including a drive line, a first joining device with a first sleeve, a second joining device with a second sleeve, a first mounting device connected to the power source, and a second mounting device connected on the safety feeder, with the drive line including a first end thereof connecting to the drive axle and a second end thereof connecting to the drive axle, respectively, with a first end of the drive line and the drive axle are retained on opposite ends of the first sleeve, with a second end of the drive line and the drive shaft are retained on opposite ends of the second sleeve,
- with the first mounting device including a first fixture mounted on the power source and including a first through hole extending through a center of the first fixture,
- with the second mounting device including a second fixture mounted on the safety feeder and including a second through hole extending through a center of the second fixture,
- with the first joining device including a third sleeve attached to and disposed outside the first sleeve and retained in peripheral engagement with the first through hole, with the first sleeve being rotatable relative to the third sleeve, with the second joining device including a fourth sleeve attached to and disposed outside the second sleeve and retained in peripheral engagement with the second through hole, and with the third sleeve being rotatable relative to the fourth sleeve.
