Abstract:
Floor panels are shown, which are provided with a mechanical locking system comprising tongue and grooves provided with protrusions and cavities which are displaceable in relation to each other and configured such that the protrusions can obtain a vertically unlocked position where they match the cavities and a vertically locked position where the protrusions overlap each other.

Abstract:
A method for forming a bevel cut at an end of a wood member is disclosed. A wood member is placed on a support table and a plurality of cutters mounted on and spaced along a shaft extending in parallel to the end of the wood member on the table is moved relative to the table in a direction inclined with respect to the wood member thereby to make a first cutting to form a plurality of bevel cuts. The support table is shifted in the direction parallel to the end of the wood member and a second cutting is made by the relative movement between the cutters and the table. During the first and second cutting, the wood member is pressed against the support table by a pressing member at a position adjacent to the end of the wood member and between any two adjacent cutters.
Abstract:
An apparatus used for cutting tenons consists of a plurality of mounting brackets, a plurality of arms, a motor, and a pair of threaded rods. The plurality of mounting brackets attaches the apparatus to an external platform. The motor is mounted onto one of the plurality of arms allowing the motor to slide along the length of the arm. The log in which the tenon is to be cut is placed in between the pair of threaded rods. By rotating the log with the use of one of the threaded rods or with the use of a drill, the log makes contact with the motor. The rotating motion of both the log and also the motor, results in a tenon being cut on the log. Additionally, two motors can also be used in tenon cutting such that a tenon with different diameters can be cut simultaneously.
Abstract:
A guitar neck joint routing system. The system includes a probe and router assembly comprising a gantry, a probe, and a plurality of routers, and a guitar neck and body nest comprising clamps and vacuum grips for holding a guitar neck and guitar body in place for taking measurements and routing a dovetail joint.
Abstract:
An operation device includes a connecting member mounted on and moved with a working device of a tenoner. A positioning mechanism is mounted on and moved with the connecting member and includes a tube mounted on the connecting member and adapted to be fixed at various positions, an elastic member and a shaft retained in a hollow of the tube. The shaft includes an end extended outside of the tube and a roller mounted on the end and engaged with a guiding member. The elastic member is disposed between the tube and the shaft and selectively depressed such that the elastic member enables the shaft to movably engage with an undulated edge of the guiding member in a quick and accurate manner.
Abstract:
Apparatus for making tenons and forming shoulders on wood ends with a stand having two opposing sides and a attachable stand top, a two piece router bracket that accepts different diameter router motors, a threaded rod bracket with at least 3 apertures for receiving a threaded rod, a threaded rod with a square tapered end, a tube connector that receives and secures smaller round diameter tubing and bolts to the top of the router bracket, a round steel slide pole, a wooden work piece holder with a round tube with a square tube attached at a 90 degree angle a a square tube with a fixed stud at one end. A preferred embodiment includes the curved thread engaging clip moves slidably on a steel rod. A preferred embodiment includes locking collars used as adjustable stops positioning the curved engaging clip in a engaging and disengaging location on the threaded rod.
Abstract:
A guide device for cutting a through dovetail joint consisting of a tail board template and a pin board template, the templates being made of a relatively thin material. The tail board template has a series of cutouts in the shape of an isosceles trapezoid provided longitudinally therein, the narrowest portions or tops of the cutouts in parallel alignment with the top edge of the tail board template and the broadest portions or bottoms of the cutouts in alignment below the tops of the cutouts. The pin board template has a main body serving as a base or bottom of the template and a series of fingers in the general shape of an isosceles trapezoid, of generally the same size and shape of the isosceles trapezoidal cutouts in the tail board, protruding from the main body of the pin board template. The isosceles trapezoidal fingers are connected to the main body by relatively short rectangular connecting portions or bridges, forming a series of rectangular areas that are open topped between adjacent fingers. Use of these templates with a router greatly facilitate the accurate cutting of tail boards and pin boards to form a through dovetail joint. There is also a stopper that can be used to with the tail board template for accurately adjusting the workpiece before cutting.
Abstract:
A multi-function mortise/tenon apparatus, the apparatus comprises a chassis including a placement portion for placing a work piece horizontally/vertically and at least one transverse sliding rod; a work table including a first base member, a second base member and a lift/lower platform provided between the first and second base members; wherein the lift/lower platform and the first and second base members are driven to slide with respect to the chassis transversely/longitudinally; wherein the lift/lower platform is driven to lift/lower with respect to the chassis; and a guiding device installed to the at least one first sliding rod slideably and transversely and coupled to the work table which is driven by the guiding device to slide with respect to the chassis transversely/longitudinally.
Abstract:
An apparatus for making tenons and mortises includes a table with a first opening in the top surface thereof. The top surface is disposed for receiving a sliding base assembly for a cutting device having a second opening therein. A work-piece holding assembly is detachably connected to a front portion of the table. The table and sliding base assembly cooperate to define the movement of the sliding base assembly in relation to said first opening. The work-piece holding assembly is positionable at preselected angles and varying vertical positions in relation to the top surface of the table.
