20090144992 | Jigsaw Blade - A jigsaw blade has an elongated body with a first and second end, a cutting edge and an opposing back edge. A plurality of teeth is formed on the cutting edge. The first tooth of the plurality of teeth is immediately adjacent the second end of the blade. The first tooth is raker tooth and has a rake face and a clearance face. The rake face and clearance face intersect to form a cutting edge of the first tooth. The second end defines a plunging nose. The second end includes a nose end surface that extends between the cutting edge and the back edge. The nose end surface is on an angle of about 35° with respect to a line defined by tips of the plurality of teeth. The nose end surface intersects the first tooth relief surface to form an angled cutting edge with a leading sharp point. | 06-11-2009 |
20090145280 | Reciprocating Saw Blade with Plunge Nose - A reciprocating saw blade has a body with two ends and two edges. The first end is a shanking end to secure the blade with a reciprocating saw. The second end is a plunging end to enter into a workpiece. The first edge has a plurality of teeth and gullets. A second edge opposes the first edge. The plurality of teeth has a first tooth immediately adjacent the plunging end. The first tooth is a full tooth and is also a raker or unset tooth. The first gullet adjacent the first tooth has a size at least 1.5 times the gullet size of the remainder of the plurality of gullets. | 06-11-2009 |
20100206185 | KNIFE AND CUTTING WHEEL FOR A FOOD PRODUCT SLICING APPARATUS - A cutting wheel using knives with slice thickness gauging surfaces defining, with the knife cutting edges, a thickness dimension of sliced food products and a throat dimension measured perpendicular to the wheel cutting plane between each knife cutting edge and the terminal edge of the adjacent gauging surface, wherein the knives each have a single primary bevel extending practically tangent to the cutting plane on the side of the knife facing towards the cutting plane and a smooth transition area on the opposite side of the knife, and the ratio of throat dimension to slice thickness dimension is 1 to 1.7. | 08-19-2010 |
20120216656 | Reciprocating Saw Blade with Plunge Nose - A method for manufacturing a reciprocating saw blade includes forming a plurality of teeth into coil stock, feeding the coil stock into a die set, locating at least one of the plurality of teeth on the coil stock in the die set, flattening a portion of said teeth on said coil stock in said die set; forming a first tooth and a first gullet of a reciprocating saw blade out of the flattened portion of the coil stock in the die set, and forming a reciprocating saw blade having a first tooth with a first gullet, the first gullet being enlarged with respect to remaining gullets of said plurality of gullets. | 08-30-2012 |
20140030396 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CUTTING PRODUCTS - Apparatus for cutting products, comprising: a base; a cutting head with at least one cutting element along the circumference of the cutting head for cutting products fed into the cutting head, the cutting head being rotatably fitted to the base; an impeller adapted for rotating concentrically within the cutting head to urge products fed into the cutting head towards the circumference of the cutting head by means of centrifugal force; a first drive mechanism for driving the rotation of the impeller at a first rotational speed setting the centrifugal force; and a second drive mechanism for driving the rotation of the cutting head at a second rotational speed, determined such with respect to the first rotational speed that the product is cut by the at least one cutting element at a predetermined cutting velocity. | 01-30-2014 |
20140033889 | Reciprocating Saw Blade With Plunge Nose - A reciprocating saw blade includes a body formed from a piece of coil stock. The body has a shank end configured to secure the blade with a reciprocating saw, a plunging end configured to enter a workpiece, and a cutting edge and opposite back edge extending between the shank end and the plunging end. The cutting edge has a plurality of teeth arranged in a pattern that includes left and right set teeth. A plurality of gullets is disposed between adjacent teeth. Each of the teeth and the gullets has substantially the same size, except that the first and third consecutive teeth immediately adjacent the plunging end have been flattened to be unset, and at least a portion of the second consecutive tooth has been removed to form an enlarged gullet between the first and third teeth. | 02-06-2014 |
20140041531 | SYSTEM FOR CUTTING PRODUCTS, CONTROLLER THEREFOR, METHOD FOR CUTTING PRODUCTS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT IMPLEMENTING SAME - A system comprising a plurality of apparatuses for cutting products, comprising: a base; a cutting head with at least one cutting element along the circumference of the cutting head for cutting products fed into the cutting head, the cutting head being rotatably fitted to the base; an impeller adapted for rotating concentrically within the cutting head to urge products fed into the cutting head towards the circumference of the cutting head by means of centrifugal force; a first drive mechanism for driving the rotation of the impeller at a first rotational speed setting the centrifugal force; and a second drive mechanism for driving the rotation of the cutting head at a second rotational speed, determined such with respect to the first rotational speed that the product is cut by the at least one cutting element at a predetermined cutting velocity; and a controller for controlling said apparatuses. | 02-13-2014 |
20140083266 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CUTTING PRODUCTS - Apparatus for cutting products, comprising: a base; a cutting head rotatably fitted to the base; an impeller adapted for rotating concentrically within the cutting head to urge products fed into the cutting head towards the circumference of the cutting head by means of centrifugal force; an impeller drive mechanism for driving the rotation of the impeller at an impeller rotational speed setting the centrifugal force; and a cutting head drive mechanism for driving the rotation of the cutting head at a cutting head rotational speed which is greater than the impeller rotational speed. | 03-27-2014 |
20140230620 | CUTTING HEAD ASSEMBLY FOR CENTRIFUGAL CUTTING APPARATUS AND CENTRIFUGAL APPARATUS EQUIPPED WITH SAME - Cutting head assembly for a centrifugal cutting apparatus, comprising a plurality of drum stations, at least one of which is a cutting station, provided for together forming a drum, and fixing parts provided for assembling and holding the drum stations together. The drum stations have overlapping parts with each time at least one receiving part for receiving one of the fixing parts, such that in assembled condition the adjacent drum stations are each time fixed to each other by means of at least one of the fixing parts at the overlapping parts of the adjacent drum stations. | 08-21-2014 |
20140230621 | IMPELLER FOR CENTRIFUGAL FOOD CUTTING APPARATUS AND CENTRIFUGAL FOOD CUTTING APPARATUS COMPRISING SAME - Impeller for a centrifugal food cutting apparatus, comprising a base plate and at least one set of paddle parts mounted on the base plate and provided for imparting centrifugal force to food products to be cut.
