Sawdust removing device for a band saw machine
A sawdust-removing device for a band saw machine with a power outlet device is fitted around the shaft of a motor of a band saw machine. The motor can also supply the sawdust-removing device with power at the same time to carry out clearing off sawdust. The sawdust-removing device includes a housing, a rotor and a plurality of blades. The housing has an air chamber for the rotor with the blades to be eccentrically positioned therein. The rotor is rotated by the shaft of the motor to suck in and exhaust out air for blowing off sawdust on planks being sawed. The device is easy to be integrally assembled, takes little space inside the band saw machine and is able to reduce cost in equipment and maintenance.
1. A sawdust removing device for a band saw machine combined with a bandsaw machine, which has a machine base provided inside with a motor, said motor having its shaft fitted thereon with an actuating wheel of a power output device, a transmitting belt connecting said actuating wheel and a subordinate wheel, said subordinate wheel transmitting power of said motor to a band saw of said band saw machine for rotating and carrying out sawing, said sawdust removing device mounted on said shaft of said motor, said motor formed with a combining surface on the same side of said shaft; and,
said sawdust removing device comprising a housing, a rotor and plural blades preset in number, said housing firmly fixed on said combining surface of said motor, said housing formed in the center with a round air chamber facing said combining surface of said motor, a shaft hole axially provided at an eccentric location of said air chamber, said shaft hole pivotally fitted with said shaft of said motor, said housing having an air inlet and an air outlet respectively bored at a predetermined location on top thereof and communicating with said air chamber, said air inlet threadably engaged with a valve body, said air outlet threadably engaged with an adapter connected with a guide pipe, said rotor bored with a fitting hole in the center for said shaft of said motor and said shaft being inserted therethrough, said rotor eccentrically received in said air chamber and able to rotate together with said shaft of said motor, said rotor provided with slide notches preset in number, said slide notches positioned spaced apart equidistantly around a circumference edge of said rotor, said blades respectively fitted in said slide notches to move back and forth therein, said blades having their outer ends alternately contacting with the inner wall of said air chamber when said rotor rotates, said blades rotating together with said rotor and moving back and forth to suck in and exhaust out air repeatedly, air sucked in said air chamber and led into said guide pipe, which has the other end positioned above a workbench of said band saw machine.
2. The sawdust removing device for a band saw machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said valve body is L-shaped, having a valve lid pivotally provided on a sidewise opening, and an air intake hole located at predetermined distance from said valve lid.
3. The sawdust removing device for a band saw machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said adapter has its upper side formed with a stepped connecting member gradually tapering from a bottom to a top.
4. The sawdust removing device for a band saw machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said guide pipe is a hollow plastic pipe having one end fitted with said adapter and the other end connected with a nozzle fixed on a guide base of said band saw machine, and said guide base is adjustable to move up and down for guiding and adjusting said band saw to rotate and carry out sawing.
5. The sawdust removing device for a band saw machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each said blade has its outer end formed with a curved surface for closely with the inner wall of said air chamber.
