Abstract

Two 18V-type rechargeable batteries ( 31 and 31 ) are attached in series so as to allow a 36V-type tabletop cutting device (C 1 ) to be utilized. By utilizing the 18V batteries which are highly prevalent for electric tools, it is possible to use the 36V-type tabletop cutting device (C 1 ) as well as to reduce costs for the batteries.

First claim

What is claims is:

1. A tabletop cutting device comprising:
a table configured to support a workpiece;
a cutting device main body having a first end pivotably attached to the table such that the cutting device main body can be operated in a vertically movable manner with respect to the table;
a main grip part extending in a direction intersecting to a longitudinal direction of the cutting device main body at a second end opposing to the first end of the cutting device main body, and held by a user when the cutting device main body is operated in the vertically movable manner;
an electric motor provided at the cutting device main body near the second end of the cutting device main body, wherein the electric motor is configured to rotate a circular rotary blade; and
a plurality of battery attachment sections configured such that rechargeable batteries are attached to the plurality of battery attachment sections, wherein the plurality of battery attachment sections are arranged side by side with each other in a longitudinal direction of the cutting device main body between the first end and the second end of the cutting device main body,
wherein the plurality of battery attachment sections are orientated such that the rechargeable batteries can be attached to the plurality of battery attachment sections through sliding the rechargeable batteries with respect to the plurality of battery attachment sections in a direction that is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the cutting device main body and substantially parallel to a longitudinal direction of the main grip part, and
wherein the plurality of battery attachment sections are positioned such that the rechargeable batteries attached to the plurality of battery attachment sections overlap with the main grip part as seen in the longitudinal direction of the cutting device main body.
