摘要:
The present invention relates to a cutter (12, 14) for an endless cutter device (10) movable along a path for cutting a kerf in a work piece, said cutter in an upright position comprising:
a body portion (32) disposed in a substantially upright plane (33) and having forward (32b) and rearward (32a) regions, a cutter portion (40) on the rearward region of the body portion having a forwardly facing cutting edge (44) extending transversely of said plane having a selected width (47) as measured normal to the plane of the body portion and disposed at a selected elevation above the body portion, and a depth gauge portion (46) on the forward region of the body portion, said depth gauge portion comprising a plate portion (48) bent over at substantially right angle relative to the plane of the body portion and having an upper surface (48a) inclined downwardly from a rearwardly facing rear edge (56) of the plate portion which is disposed at an elevation adjacent but below the elevation of the cutting edge to a forwardly facing front edge (68) of the plate portion which is disposed at a lower elevation, said depth gauge portion having a maximum width region which has a width (71) as measured normal to the plane of the body portion which is at least as great as the width of the cutting edge, as well as a cutting chain comprising said cutter.

摘要:
A cutter link (12) for a saw chain having a body portion (32) disposed in a substantially upright plane, a cutter portion (40) on a rearward region of the body (32) and a depth gauge portion (46) on a forward region of the body. The depth gauge has a downwardly sloping planar upper surface (48a) with a multi-angular configuration. A rear edge of the depth gauge has a central portion (56) which is highest and farthest to the rear, with side portions (58,60) extending forwardly and downwardly therefrom in diverging directions. A free outer edge (70) intermediate the rear edge (60) and forward edge (68) of the depth gauge is the maximum width portion of the depth gauge. Converging edges (64,66) progress forwardly from the maximum width portion to the front edge (68) of the depth gauge. The heel (43) of the body portion (32) is clipped to permit limited rearward rocking of the cutter (12).
