An apparatus for cutting plates made of insulating material and guiding device for a heating wire in such a device

摘要

A guide device (30) for a heating wire (31) of an apparatus (1) for the cutting of plates out of insulating material with the help of a heating wire has: - a first electrically conducting rail (32) with which the heating wire is connected electrically and mechanically so that it can slide along the first rail; - and a second rail (33). There is a handle (4), freely movable relative to the second rail, on which the heating wire is fastened so that the heating wire can be guided along the first and second rail when the heating wire is tensioned between the first rail and the handle.
