Tools and methods for making and using tools, blades and methods of making and using blades
Methods and apparatus for making and using tools, for example concrete cutting blades. The tool includes a first layer and a second layer that are oppositely disposed. The first and second layers include working surfaces that support at least one working element when the working element is applied to a work piece. Additionally, an intermediate structure is included between the first and second layers. The intermediate structure can include a plurality of components extending in the area between the structural surfaces and the working surfaces.
1. A cutting tool comprising:
a first disk having an inner and outer face;
a second disk having an inner and outer face, wherein the inner face of the first disk and the inner face of the second disk face each other;
a structure interposed between the first disk and the second disk;
a ring coupled with the first disk and the second disk; and
a plurality of cutting segments coupled with the ring,
wherein the structure comprises a honeycomb structure.
2. The cutting tool of claim 1 , wherein the ring includes non-uniformities.
3. The cutting tool of claim 2 , wherein the non-uniformities are scallop portions.
4. The cutting tool of claim 1 , wherein the structure further comprises at least one of an adhesive or foam.
5. The cutting tool of claim 1 , wherein the first disk is made of one of metal, fiberglass, or plastic.
6. The cutting tool of claim 1 , wherein the structure is an adhesive.
7. The cutting tool of claim 1 , wherein the structure is one of a flow insert or a damping insert.
8. The cutting tool of claim 1 , wherein the ring is at least located partially between the first disk and the second disk.
9. The cutting tool of claim 1 , wherein the ring and the structure have substantially the same height.
10. A cutting tool comprising:
a first disk having an inner and outer face;
a second disk having an inner and outer face, wherein the inner face of the first disk and the inner face of the second disk face each other;
a ring coupled with the first disk and the second disk, the ring being partially located between the first disk and the second disk; and
a plurality of cutting segments coupled with the ring;
wherein the ring includes non-uniformities comprising scalloped portions.
11. The cutting tool of claim 10 , further comprising a structure interposed between the first disk and the second disk.
12. The cutting tool of claim 11 , wherein the structure comprises a honeycomb structure.
13. The cutting tool of claim 12 , wherein the structure further comprises at least one of an adhesive or foam.
14. The cutting tool of claim 11 , wherein the structure is an adhesive.
15. The cutting tool of claim 11 , wherein the structure is one of a flow insert or a damping insert.
16. The cutting tool of claim 11 , wherein the ring and the structure have substantially the same height.
17. The cutting tool of claim 10 , wherein the first disk is made of one of metal, fiberglass, or plastic.
18. The cutting tool of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of cutting segments are substantially arc shaped.
