Abstract: A hand-held band saw for cutting a workpiece. The hand-held band saw includes a deck, first and second wheels coupled to the deck for receiving a continuous blade thereabout, a motor coupled to the deck for driving at least one of the first or second wheels, and a handle providing a grip for a user to hold the band saw. The band saw also includes a blade guard having a first portion adjacent the first wheel, a second portion adjacent the second wheel, and a third portion adjoining the first and second portions. A joint couples the first, second, and third portions to the deck for simultaneous movement of the first, second, and third portions with respect to the deck.

Abstract: A banknote processing device is mounted on a mounting table. The banknote processing device includes a stacking unit having an opening for removing banknotes. A dust collection vent is arranged in front of the opening of the stacking unit on the mounting table. A suction fan sucks dust dispersing from the opening of the stacking unit into a dust collection vent. A filter captures the dust from air that is sucked in. A duct expels a dust-free air from an exhaust vent provided in an exhaust passage formed around the suction fan. In another configuration, the dust collection vent is provided inside the stacking unit, and the dust generated inside the stacking unit is sucked in by the suction fan.

Abstract: The combination waste dust extractor and support plate is intended to be used in combination with a conventional woodworking router when the router is used in an inverted position for bench or table use. The apparatus includes a router support plate with the dust extraction feature built into and included with this support plate. The combination support plate and dust extractor is affixed to the router and then both are suspended under the surface of a work table. The dust extraction feature is built into and included with the support plate as follows: within the plate is an internal chamber connecting the router bit opening on the top surface of the plate with an outlet at one corner of the bottom of the plate. A standard shop vacuum is attached to a hose fitting connected to the outlet. The attached shop vacuum creates suction around and beneath the router bit, drawing dust and particles through the chamber and into the attached shop vacuum.

Abstract: A dust collection attachment is disclosed that is adapted to be coupled to a base. A barrier coupled to the pan includes a plurality of bristles that create an opening to the pan between the base and the barrier in order to prevent debris generated by a tool from passing through the barrier, yet allowing passage of the tool through the barrier.

Abstract: A debris removal tool is generally provided with a head unit having a base plate, at least one cutting tooth and a drive unit for rotating the base plate. A flex plate may be provided for biasing the base plate with respect to an axis of rotation. The cutting teeth may be removably and pivotably coupled with the base plate. An elongated handle may be provided for use with the head unit and may be pivotably secured there too. Rechargeable and disposable power sources may be used with the drive unit. Various embodiments that incorporate functional grips and brushes are also disclosed.

Abstract: A hood assembly for converting a surface planer between at least two operative modes for expelling chips removed from a workpiece being planed is provided. The hood assembly includes a manifold that is releasably attachable to the carriage assembly. The hood assembly also includes a hood door that is actuatable between at least two operative positions relative to the manifold, thereby providing at least two operative modes for expelling chips from the planer.

Abstract: A hand router has a housing (12) and a tool (22) situated in the housing in a rotary drivable fashion, which it is possible to operate in the intended manner by means of a suction air flow, in particular by means of a vacuum cleaner. The hand router is particularly powerful because a radial turbine wheel (32) equipped with intake and outlet gratings (44, 48) is used as the drive. The housing (12) is made up of tube-like sections (13, 14, 15), in particular that can be grasped by an operating hand, which it is possible to connect with one another by means of flanges (36, 38).

Abstract: A scrap collector is comprised of a separator, a ventilating device, a chipping collecting container, a collecting bag, and a communicating pipe. The separator includes an air chamber, an inlet communicating with the air chamber, and a bottom hole communicating with the air chamber. The ventilating device is mounted on the separator and is provided with an outlet, generating an airflow flowing towards the outlet. The chipping collecting container is mounted under the separator, including an opening connected with the bottom hole of the separator. The collecting bag is mounted inside the chipping collecting container, including an opening in communication with the air chamber. An airtight room is defined between the chipping collecting container and the collecting bag. The communicating pipe has two ends respectively communicating with the air chamber and the room. Accordingly, the pressure inside the collecting bag and the room remains equal.

Abstract: A motor driven power tool is provided having an internal dust collection system. A single electric motor drives the working member such as a saw or sander and simultaneously drives an air pump which acts as a collector vacuum for debris created when the power tool is in use. A dust collector shroud surrounds a portion of the cutting member and forms an outlet connected to the air pump inlet.

Abstract: A string saw includes a housing, and an air box. The housing includes a first casing and a second casing combined with each other. The air box is mounted in the housing and has an inside formed with a receiving chamber communicating with the storage space of the first casing, so that the cut chips during the sawing process can be introduced from the storage space of the first casing into the receiving chamber of the air box. Thus, the string saw can provide the dust collection and chip drainage function.

Abstract: A dust collector includes a mounting seat mounted outside dust outlets of a housing of a band sawing machine, a boosting unit received in the mounting seat, and a dust collecting member. The mounting seat has an axial portion and a through hole passing through the axial portion. The boosting unit includes a rotor and a fan blade. The rotor has a body portion rotatably mounted through the through hole of the mounting seat and fitted to the fan blade at a distal end thereof, and a head portion connected with a transmission shaft of a drive motor of the band sawing machine. The dust collecting member is connected with the mounting seat and includes a receiving space. Accordingly, the dust collector is synchronically activated together with the band sawing machine to run for collecting sawdust.
