  • Patent number: 10821571
    Abstract: A handheld, hand-guided cutting-off machine (10), which includes a rotating cutting-off wheel, a supporting housing part (36), an output shaft, which is rotatably supported around an output axis (40), a drive motor, a transmission mechanism (19), which connects the drive motor to the output shaft, a flange and a safety guard (24), which covers the cutting-off wheel over a covering area. The cutting-off wheel is rotatably fixedly mounted on the output shaft with the aid of the flange and surrounded by the safety guard (24), which is pivotable around a pivot axis. The safety guard (24), the supporting housing part (36) and the transmission mechanism (19) have maximum distances from the output axis (40) over an outcut angle (?), which are less than or equal to half the flange diameter of the flange.

  • Patent number: 6993435
    Abstract: For the automatic determination of the diameter of a tool, particularly a saw blade for an automatic wall saw, which is driven by a motor via a gear unit, the moment of inertia of the tool is used as an indicator for its diameter. Three basic solution variants are introduced. In particular, the system including a motor, gear unit and tool is treated as a dual-mass oscillator such that the elasticity of the shafts and gears is arranged as a torsion spring between the inertial masses in two discrete points while taking into account two coefficients of friction including coefficients of the known inertia of the motor rotor (?R) and of the tool (?S). This system can be described by equations which are then simplified by reasonable assumptions or premises. The selected formulations are solved for the moment of inertia of the tool to determine the diameter therefrom and to make an optimal adjustment for the drive possible which is adapted to the respective tool.
