ROLLING PLATE ASSEMBLY ATTACHMENT FOR PORTABLE POWER CUTTING TOOLS

摘要

The present invention is an attachable rolling plate assembly which can be attached as a single unit to a portable cutting tool to facilitate the safe rolling movement of the portable cutting tool on the workpiece. The invention comprises a frame assembly formed from a single piece of molded material such as fiber enriched high-impact nylon having a pair of oppositely disposed longitudinal sidewalls with damping strips extending therefrom, and a flat base portion having an opening through which a saw blade of a power saw extends. The plate has front and rear fastening members to retain a plate of a power cutting saw onto the rolling plate assembly. The invention also includes a cutting guide assembly to facilitate a straight cut, reduce torsional rotation of the saw blade and reduce kickback of the saw.
