Riving knife assembly for a dual bevel table saw
First Claim
1. A riving knife assembly for a dual bevel table saw, comprising:
- a first armature configured for coupling with a beveling member;
a second armature adjustably and rotatably coupled with the first armature;
a first mounting member coupled with the second armature;
a first riving bracket coupled with the second armature and configured for adjustably coupling with a bearing retaining nut of a dual arbor assembly;
a second riving bracket coupled with the first mounting member and configured for adjustably coupling with the inside of a first bore of a first height bracket;
a quick release handle disposed upon the first mounting member;
an eccentric shaft coupled with the quick release handle;
a locking pin having a locking pin body, a second mounting member, a head member coupled with a sheathing member, and a spring loaded assembly, the locking pin operationally coupled with the eccentric shaft; and
, a riving knife configured with an engagement assembly for engaging with the locking pin;
wherein the spring loaded assembly enables the head member and a circular engagement member disposed on the locking pin body proximal to the head member of the locking pin to be set in a locked position and a release position relative to the second mounting member, the sheathing member and the riving knife;
wherein the locked and release positions are established by manipulation of the quick release handle.
