  • Patent number: 8375932
    Abstract: The invention relates to a cutter including: a base (1) with an upper surface for supporting the ceramic part (9a, 9b, 9c) to be cut, a longitudinal rail (2) positioned above the longitudinal mid-zone of the base (1) parallel thereto, and a moveable handle (3) bearing the cutting disc (4) and having a longitudinal passage for guiding same. The handle (3) includes a cam (5) disposed vertically facing the lower end of the rail (2) and associated with a positioning knob (7) which determines the position of cam (5) sectors of different heights in relation to the lower end of the rail (2), in order to position the handle (3) at different heights but at a similar angle during the cutting of parts of different thicknesses.

  • Patent number: 8181420
    Abstract: The device has a first lower substantially flat body, which has in its upper part a flexible post with a narrowed or weakened portion and a second upper body with the passage for receiving and securing said post. The flexible post, which has a rectangular cross section, has in its main surfaces respective mutually opposed toothings, which teeth are offset in the lengthwise direction and the passage of the second body has two latching pawls mutually opposed, so that in the operative position of the devices, the teeth of the flexible post engage in an alternate form with said latching pawls. The second body has a bell like hollow form with a lower widened contact mouth or border.

  • Patent number: 7013785
    Abstract: A ceramic cutting device having a base, longitudinal guides mounted to the base, and a support movably mounted on the longitudinal guides. A cutting-wheel handle holder is pivotably mounted to the support. A cutting-wheel handle is mounted to the handle holder and the cutting wheel is mounted to the handle. An actuating lever is mounted in a threaded hole in the handle holder so as to immobilize the handle so that the handle can apply pressure on a ceramic piece to be cut via the cutting wheel. The cutting wheel handle has an outer periphery with at least three longitudinally extended rebates which have a geometry that reduces the frequency of vibration during scoring of the ceramic piece by the cutting-wheel. The handle further has at least one longitudinally extending planar surface for engaging with the actuating lever.

  • Patent number: 6935544
    Abstract: The invention relates to a manual tile cutter comprising a support base (1), the short sides of which are provided with diverging walls (2) that extend upwards. Both ends of the longitudinal guides (3) for the cutting head are fixed inside said walls. The longer sides of the support base (1) are provided with flat flanges (8) which are mounted so that they can be pulled down during use, around horizontal rotation axes, into a horizontal position which is coplanar with the base (1), or pushed up into a vertical transport position which is perpendicular to the base (1).
