Portable compass saw
First Claim
1. A portable compass saw having a housing in which are accommodated a drive motor, for a push rod to which is connected a saw blade, and an oscillating drive, which includes a gear which is held, by means of a shaft, in mounting means in said housing;
- a pinion of a drive shaft of said drive motor engages teeth of said gear;
said gear of said oscillating drive also includes a pin which is disposed at a distance from, and extends parallel to, the axis of rotation of said gear;
said pin is drivingly connected with a clutch member of said oscillating drive;
said clutch member is connected to said push rod, and is provided with a guide for said pin, with said guide extending at substantially right angles to the longitudinal axis of said push rod;
the improvement wherein;
said teeth of said gear are disposed on that side of the latter which faces said push rod;
said pinion is disposed in the region between said gear and said push rod; and
said gear is seated loosely on said shaft, and is held thereon under the load of at least said pinion, such clutch member, in plan view, having a T-shape; and
said guide for said pin being in the form of a cross-piece of said clutch member;
said clutch member being provided with a foot, with said push rod being detachably secured to said foot.

Abstract
A portable compass saw which is provided with an oscillation drive for driving a saw blade. The oscillation drive includes a gear, which is mounted on a shaft in the housing; engaging in the teeth of the gear is a pinion of a drive shaft of a drive motor. At a distance from its axis of rotation, the gear is provided with a pin extending parallel thereto. The pin is in driving connection with a clutch member, which is connected to the push rod and has a guide for the bolt, with the guide extending at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the push rod. The teeth of the gear are provided on that side of the gear which faces the push rod. The pinion is located in the region between the push rod and the gear, which is seated loosely on the shaft and is held on the latter under the load of the pinion. As a result, the gear is held reliably in its installed position, even though it is seated loosely on the shaft and is not secured to prevent axial displacement by separate securing members.
