Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A ring saw includes a ring saw blade, a tool holder that guides the ring saw blade in a cutting plane, a motor, and a driving wheel where the ring saw blade is drivable in the cutting plane by the driving wheel and the driving wheel is coupled to the motor. A guide roller is disposed on a first side of the cutting plane where the ring saw blade is guidable by the guide roller from the first side. A guide roll is disposed on a second side of the cutting plane where the ring saw blade is guidable by the guide roll from the second side. The guide roll is disposed in a hood that is pivotable relative to the cutting plane.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A ring saw ( 2 ), comprising: a ring saw blade ( 1 ); a tool holder ( 5 ), wherein the tool holder ( 5 ) guides the ring saw blade ( 1 ) in a cutting plane (E); a motor ( 30 ); a driving wheel ( 6 ), wherein the ring saw blade ( 1 ) is drivable in the cutting plane (E) by the driving wheel ( 6 ) and wherein the driving wheel ( 6 ) is coupled to the motor ( 30 ); a guide roller ( 41 ) which is disposed on a first side of the cutting plane (E), wherein the ring saw blade ( 1 ) is guidable by the guide roller ( 41 ) from the first side; and a guide roll ( 43 ) which is disposed on a second side of the cutting plane (E), wherein the ring saw blade ( 1 ) is guidable by the guide roll ( 43 ) from the second side; wherein the guide roll ( 43 ) is disposed in a hood ( 34 ) that is pivotable relative to the cutting plane (E); wherein the driving wheel ( 6 ) is movable in the cutting plane (E) and wherein a movement of the hood ( 34 ) and of the driving wheel ( 6 ) is synchronized by a linkage mechanism ( 71 ). 2. The ring saw ( 2 ) as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the tool holder ( 5 ) has a receiving space ( 33 ), wherein the ring saw blade ( 1 ) is disposed in the receiving space ( 33 ) and wherein the hood ( 34 ) covers the receiving space ( 33 ). 3. The ring saw ( 2 ) as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the driving wheel ( 6 ), the guide roller ( 41 ), and the guide roll ( 43 ) are disposed in the receiving space ( 33 ). 4. The ring saw ( 2 ) as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a section of a lateral surface ( 49 ) of the guide roll ( 43 ) which faces the cutting plane (E) extends parallel to the cutting plane (E). 5. The ring saw ( 2 ) as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hood ( 34 ) is lockable on a machine housing ( 31 ). 6. The ring saw ( 2 ) as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hood ( 34 ) is openable and closable by an actuating lever ( 35 ). 7. A ring saw ( 2 ), comprising: a ring saw blade ( 1 ); a tool holder ( 5 ), wherein the tool holder ( 5 ) guides the ring saw blade ( 1 ) in a cutting plane (E); a motor ( 30 ); a driving wheel ( 6 ), wherein the ring saw blade ( 1 ) is drivable in the cutting plane (E) by the driving wheel ( 6 ) and wherein the driving wheel ( 6 ) is coupled to the motor ( 30 ); a guide roller ( 41 ) which is disposed on a first side of the cutting plane (E), wherein the ring saw blade ( 1 ) is guidable by the guide roller ( 41 ) from the first side; and a guide roll ( 43 ) which is disposed on a second side of the cutting plane (E), wherein the ring saw blade ( 1 ) is guidable by the guide roll ( 43 ) from the second side; wherein the guide roll ( 43 ) is disposed in a hood ( 34 ) that is pivotable relative to the cutting plane (E); wherein an actuating lever ( 35 ) has an opening position and a closing position, wherein the hood ( 34 ) and the driving wheel ( 6 ) are coupled to the actuating lever ( 35 ) such that, in the closing position, the hood ( 34 ) is closed and the driving wheel ( 6 ) is pressed against the ring saw blade ( 1 ) and, in the opening position, the hood ( 34 ) is open and the driving wheel ( 6 ) is at a distance from the ring saw blade ( 1 ). 8. The ring saw ( 2 ) as claimed in claim 7 , wherein, proceeding from the closing position into the opening position, the actuating lever ( 35 ) first moves the driving wheel ( 6 ) and then opens the hood ( 34 ).
