Abstract

A saw blade ( 1 ) intended for a handheld working tool, and the saw blade comprises a blade body ( 2 ) having an outer periphery ( 3 ) with a number of teeth ( 4 ) arranged by fastening a separate part or through a local addition of a surface lining material. The teeth occupy less than 0,2 times of the periphery ( 3 ) of the saw blade and in that rotation-wise in front of at least a tooth ( 4 ) there is a notch ( 5 ) that runs towards the center of the saw blade and this notch has a narrow opening ( 6 ) at the periphery and preferably widens considerably inside the opening to a widened part ( 7 ) and the widened part has a width (b) that is greater than 1,3 times the width (a) of the opening. Rotation-wise in front of the narrow opening ( 6 ) the outer periphery ( 3 ) of the blade body ( 2 ) has a maximum radius essentially from a center ( 11 ) of the saw blade and this maximum radius is maintained during at least 55% in succession, and preferably during at least 70%, of a peripheral distance from the narrow opening to the start of the next tooth and the tooth ( 4 ) has an edge ( 8 ) at its outer foremost end, i.e. first in the direction of rotation and a front side ( 9 ) of the tooth ( 4 ) at the edge ( 8 ) forms a negative rake angle α from the edge and to the center ( 11 ) of the saw blade, and the angle α is greater than 0 degrees and preferably greater than 8 degrees but smaller than 30 degrees.

Claims (10)

1 . A saw blade ( 1 ) intended for a handheld working tool, and the saw blade comprises a blade body ( 2 ) having an outer periphery ( 3 ) within a number of teeth ( 4 ) arranged by permanent fastening of a separate part or through a local addition of a surface lining material, and the teeth occupy less than 0.2 times of the periphery ( 3 ) of the saw blade and in that rotation-wise in front of at least a tooth ( 4 ) there is a notch ( 5 ) that runs towards the center of the saw blade and this notch has a narrow opening ( 6 ) at the periphery and preferably widens considerably inside the opening to a widened part ( 7 ) and the widened part has a width (b) that is greater than 1.3 times the width (a) of the opening, characterized in that rotation-wise in front of the narrow opening ( 6 ) the outer periphery ( 3 ) of the blade body ( 2 ) has a maximum radius essentially from a center ( 11 ) of the saw blade and this maximum radius is maintained during at least 55% in succession, and preferably during at least 70%, of a peripheral distance from the narrow opening to the start of the next tooth and the tooth ( 4 ) has an edge ( 8 ) at its outer foremost end, i.e. first in the direction of rotation and a front side ( 9 ) of the tooth ( 4 ) at the edge ( 8 ) forms a negative rake angle α from the edge and to the center ( 11 ) of the saw blade, and the angle α is greater than 0 degrees and preferably greater than 8 degrees but smaller than 30 degrees.

2 . A saw blade ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the edge ( 8 ) has a radial distance (c) to the outer periphery of the blade body at the opening ( 6 ), which distance (c) is 0.6-5 millimeters and preferably is 0.6-2 millimeters.

3 . A saw blade ( 1 ) according to any of the preceding claims, wherein the negative rake angle α is greater than 10 degrees but smaller than 20 degrees.

4 . A saw blade ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the narrow opening ( 6 ) is bigger than 0.1 millimeter but smaller than 4 mm, but preferably is bigger than 0.5 mm but smaller than 2 mm.

5 . A saw blade according to claim 1 , wherein each tooth ( 4 ) is permanently attached, e.g. by welding or soldering or gluing to the blade body ( 2 ).

6 . A saw blade ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein each tooth ( 4 ) is made from carbide tip.

7 . A saw blade ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the angle ∝α is greater than 8 degrees but smaller than 20 degrees.

8 . A saw blade ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the blade body ( 2 ) is adapted to be attached to a center shaft or to be supplied with a center shaft.

9 . A saw blade ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the blade body ( 2 ) is arranged as an annular part supplied with at least one concentric groove ( 10 ) between the inner and outer periphery, and that the inner periphery is arranged as a V-shaped surface ( 12 ) for drive of the saw blade.

10 . A saw blade ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the blade body ( 2 ) had a circular outer periphery ( 3 ), i.e. its maximum radius is maintained during 100% of the distance between the narrow opening and the next tooth.
