Tooth structure for burr-free cutting saw blade
First Claim
1. A saw blade for burr-free cutting of materials, the blade being of the type having generally planar side surfaces lying in substantially parallel planes and a plurality of cutting teeth along one edge thereof, said blade having a predetermined cutting direction parallel with said side surfaces, the improvement whereineach of said teeth includesa cutting edge extending transversely across only a predetermined portion of the distal end of the tooth from one of said side surface planes to a point between said planes, said cutting edge lying along a line which is inclined relative to a line extending perpendicularly between the planes of said side surfaces, andan inclined generally triangular surface extending from said point to the other of said side surface planes,and wherein, in a first set of blade teeth including every other tooth, the cutting edges extend inwardly from one of said planes and, in a second set of teeth including the remaining teeth the cutting edges extend inwardly from the other one of said planes.
