    摘要: Improved chain saws, components for chain saws, methods of making chain saws and components, and methods of using chain saws and components are disclosed. In some embodiments, a chain saw comprises a saw bar and a plurality of links, wherein a first link has a hook that engages a recess of a second link, thereby coupling the first link and the second link and allowing them to articulate without decoupling. The saw bar may have a rail, and the links may have grooves such that the links straddle and ride over the rail. The rail may have a projection and the grooves of the links may have notches accommodating the projection such that the projection prevents dislocation of the links. The links may have conical or pyramidal cutting teeth. The chain may be bidirectional. Robotic and automated operation of saws and other instruments are also disclosed.

    摘要: A method of modifying a cutter link (240) of cutting chain for a chainsaw may include forming the cutter link (240) to include a base portion (280) and a cutting portion (270) extending away from the base portion (280). The cutting portion (270) may include a side plate (300) and a top plate (310). The top plate (310) may include a top face (316) and a bottom face (314). The side plate (300) may include an outer face and an inside face (304). The method may further include determining a maximum non-homogeneous material hardness expected to be encountered during cutting operations, selecting a coating material having a hardness at least 1.3 times the maximum non-homogeneous material hardness, and coating a treated surface of the top plate (310) and/or the side plate (300).

    摘要: An invention is disclosed comprising a cutting chain of links that pivot without longitudinal disarticulation, yet are connected without reliance on separate connections. Lateral dislocation of the links of the cutting chain is prevented by placement of the cutting chain in a channel, which guides the cutting chain along its operational path and provides resistance against normal load. The channel may be retractable and/or comprised of lubricious, heat absorbing materials. The blade may be flexible in order to cut a variable kerf. The invention further comprises a power train and drive train, designed to optimize the cutting chain for one of many applications.

    摘要: Embodiments of chain saw cutter links, and related apparatuses and methods. For example, in some embodiments, a cutter link may include a top plate, a sharpened surface having an upper end and a lower end, and a depth gauge having a top surface. The sharpened surface may define a reference line tangent to the sharpened surface at the upper end such that the reference line extends between the top plate and the sharpened surface, a sharpened width may be defined by a minimum distance between the reference line and the lower end of the sharpened surface, an opening width may be defined by a minimum distance between the reference line and the top surface of the depth gauge, and the sharpened width may be greater than the opening width.

    摘要: A lightweight disposable cutting chain for use with small, compact power supplies comprises in one embodiment a series of links formed of wire. On certain links an end of the wire loop forming the link is cut to form a sharp edge capable of shaving material, such as wood, being cut. The links are arranged so that a narrow kerf is first cut by the links, other links being formed with cutting edges to shave material and widen the kerf. In other embodiments some or all of the links comprise metal plates formed by stamping from sheet metal.

    摘要: A cutting device for a cutting machine comprises a chain guided in translation along a cutting plane by a chain guide and has cutting tools arranged alternately on either side of the cutting plane. Each cutting tool has a curved cutting end, which curves towards the outside of the cutting plane and defines a concave surface. A scraper is positioned on either side and in the vicinity of the chain guide and cutting tools parallel to the cutting plane, said scraper having two ends projecting towards said plane, each having a convex surface complementary to the concave surface, so that said ends remove cutting waste from the tools during the passage of the tools on the scraper. The cutting device is especially useful for cutting soft, sticking, or dirtying materials.
