Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Fences for use in table saws are disclosed. One embodiment may include an actuator, handle or lever to lock and unlock the fence from the table, where the actuator, handle or lever is positioned substantially above the tabletop and substantially within the perimeter of the table (including any rail associated with the table). Another embodiment may include an actuator, handle or lever to lock and unlock the fence from the table, where the actuator, handle or lever is positioned along a top surface of the fence and configured so that the fence unclamps from the saw when the actuator, handle or lever is pressed.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A table saw comprising: a table; a substantially planar, circular blade configured to extend at least partially above the table; a motor to spin the blade; and a fence configured to lock in a selected position relative to the table, where the fence includes a locking mechanism to lock the fence in the selected position, where the locking mechanism includes a component moveable by a user, where the component has two ends, where the component is configured to pivot around an axis between the two ends, and where the component is further configured so that pressing one end causes the fence to unlock and pressing the other end causes the fence to lock. 2. The table saw of claim 1 , where the fence has a top surface, and where the component is adjacent the top surface. 3. The table saw of claim 2 , where the component is substantially flush with the top surface when the fence is locked in a selected position relative to the table. 4. The table saw of claim 2 , where at least part of the component extends above the top surface when the fence is unlocked relative to the table.
