In an operating state, the limiting block 321 is disposed in the second positioning groove 212, and the limiting block 321 abuts against a groove wall of the second positioning groove 212 from the second section 320 to the first section 310. When the nut 352 is tightened, the direction of the resistance of the second positioning slot 212 on the stopper 321 is opposite to the direction of the resistance of the first positioning slot 112 on the fixing seat 340, so that the guide rod 30 is fixed on the tool box 100.

In addition, the positioning of the second section 320 of the guide rod 30 may also adopt the same positioning scheme as the first section 310, that is, the fixing seat 340, the connecting screw 350 and the nut 352 are arranged, and the positioning principle is not described in detail. It is also necessary to point out that the way of positioning the guide rod 30 is not limited to the above described embodiments. For example, the guide bar 30 may fix the first container 10 and/or the second container 20 by a screw or a bolt.

Referring to fig. 24, another solution for positioning the guide bar 30 is provided. The first section 310 and the second section 320 of the guide bar 30 are removably coupled by threads. A first handle 120 is provided at an end of the first container 10. The end of the second container 20 is provided with a second handle 220. Both ends of the guide bar 30 are fixed to the first handle 120 and the second handle 220, respectively. That is, the end of the first section 310 is secured to the first handle 120 and the end of the second section 320 is secured to the second handle 220. When the first container 10 and the second container 20 are closed, the first handle 120 and the second handle 220 can be held together to carry the tool container 100, and the guide bar 30 is fixed by the first handle 120 and the second handle 220 based on the existing structure design, so the whole structure of the tool container 100 is simplified.

In practice, the first handle 120 and the first section 310 are fixed as an example for illustration. Referring to fig. 24, the first handle 120 has a first holding hole 121, a handle lock knob 122 is used to pass through the first holding hole 121 and connect with the end of the first section 310, and the handle lock knob 122 abuts on the first handle 120. Similarly, the second handle 220 has a second holding hole (not shown) through which the other handle lock knob 122 is passed and connected with the end of the second segment 320, and the handle lock knob 12 abuts on the second handle 220. Thus, the two handle knobs 122 pull the guide bar 30 in opposite directions, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the guide bar 30.

The first section 310 and the second section 320 of the guide bar 30 are coupled to guide the power tool 200 during movement. As shown in fig. 4, the power tool 200 is embodied as an electric circular saw, and includes a body 201, a battery pack 202 and a saw blade 203 mounted to the body, and a base plate 204 perpendicular to the saw blade 203, wherein the saw blade 230 protrudes below the base plate 204. In order to guide the power tool 200, as shown in fig. 6, the first and second sections 310 and 320 of the guide bar 30 are respectively provided with guide grooves 301. In the working state of the guide rod 30, the two guide grooves 301 are butted together to form a long guide groove. The guide slots are slidably engaged with the base plate 204. Referring to fig. 6, 22 and 23 in combination, when cutting the workpiece 300, the side edge of the bottom plate 204 of the power tool 200 can be slidably advanced in the guide groove 301, thereby achieving the guided cutting of the workpiece 300. The battery pack 202 is specifically a dc battery pack. The power tool 200, i.e., the electric circular saw, may be accommodated in the inner space of the tool case 100. The various accessories of the tool box 100, such as the corresponding guide bar 30, the power tool 200, etc., form the positioning structure. Thus, the tool box 100, guide bar 30, and power tool 200 may form a portable cutting system.

The tool box 100 in the expanded state may serve as a table when the workpiece 300 is cut. In a possible embodiment, the workpiece 300 is embodied as a tile. As shown in fig. 7, the other end of the first cutting groove 111 opposite to the first open end 1111 is closed. The other end of the second cut groove 211 opposite to the end of the second opening 2111 is closed. Thus, the first cutting groove 111 and the second cutting groove 211 are butted to form a cutting groove with two closed ends. When cutting the tile, an appropriate amount of water may be filled in the cutting groove for cooling and lubricating the saw blade 203. Meanwhile, the water in the cutting groove can eliminate harmful dust generated when the ceramic tile is cut.

Further, when the first cutting groove 111 and the second cutting groove 211 are butted, the butted part has a waterproof function. In particular, referring to fig. 2, the first box 10 has a first end, the second box has a second end, and the first end and the second end are rotatably connected by a pivot 40. The first opening end 1111 is opened at the first end, and a flexible first fin 113 is arranged on the end surface of the first end; the second open end 1211 is open at a second end, and a flexible second fin 213 is disposed on an end surface of the second end. In the unfolded state, a rubber packing is provided between the first fin 113 and the second fin 213. Under the action of pressure, the first fin 113 and the second fin 213 are embedded into rubber gaskets, so that the aim of preventing water at the joint of the first cutting groove 111 and the second cutting groove 211 is fulfilled. At least one of the first end and the second end is provided with a fin.

In addition, the first container 10 and the second container 20 of the above embodiment are rotatably coupled by the pivot 40. The position of the pivot 40 is set as: referring to fig. 7, in the unfolded state, the pivot 40 is covered by the first work surface 110 and the second work surface 210. Thus, when viewed from above the first and second work surfaces 110, 210, the pivot 40 is not visible, and the first and second work surfaces 110, 210 can be spliced into a flat work surface. Specifically, in the direction perpendicular to the first and second work surfaces 110 and 210, the pivot 40 is far away from the first and second work surfaces 110 and 210 and is close to the edges of the first and second cases 10 and 20 far away from the first and second work surfaces 110 and 210.

Referring to fig. 3 and 15, the tool box 10 further includes a first positioning assembly 60 and a second positioning assembly 70, wherein the first positioning assembly 60 and the second positioning assembly 70 are both in a storage state capable of being stored in the inner space of the tool box 100 and in a working state capable of cooperating with the first working surface 110 and/or the second working surface 210. As shown in fig. 15-18, the first positioning assembly 60 and the second positioning assembly 70 cooperate to position the workpiece 300 during cutting.

Referring to fig. 15, the first positioning element 60 includes a first positioning element 610. Referring to fig. 13 and 14, the first positioning element 610 is specifically configured in a plate shape, and two opposite sides of the first positioning element are respectively provided with a first positioning surface 611 and a right-angled triangular groove 612. Referring to fig. 15, the second positioning assembly 70 includes a second positioning member 710, and the second positioning member 710 has a second positioning surface 711.

When the first positioning assembly 60 and the second positioning assembly 70 are both in the working state, referring to fig. 15 and fig. 13, the first positioning assembly 610 is disposed on one side of the guide rod 30, and the first positioning surface 611 is parallel to the first direction; the second positioning surface 711 is perpendicular to the first direction. In other words, the first positioning surface 611 is parallel to the guide bar 30, and the second positioning surface 711 is perpendicular to the guide bar 30. When the workpiece 300 is cut, two adjacent side edges of the workpiece 300 respectively abut against the first positioning surface 611 and the second positioning surface 711, the power tool 300 is moved toward the second positioning surface 71 under the guidance of the guide rod 30, and the power tool 300 linearly cuts while abutting against the workpiece 300. The second positioning surface 71 is disposed near an end of the second work surface 210 away from the first work surface 110, and the power tool 200 can start cutting at the end of the first work surface 110 away from the second positioning surface 711, and has a large movement range, and can cut a large-sized workpiece 300.

When the workpiece 300 is a tile, it is often necessary to make a diagonal cut. In this embodiment, when the first positioning assembly 60 and the second positioning assembly 70 are both in the working state, as shown in fig. 16 in combination with fig. 13, the right-angled triangular groove 612 of the first positioning member 610 faces the guide rod 30, and the bisector L of the right angle of the right-angled triangular groove 612 is perpendicular to the guide rod 30. One corner of the workpiece 300 is inserted into the right triangle groove 612, and then the power tool 200 is moved to cut the workpiece 300, so that diagonal cutting can be realized, and a small triangular tile can be obtained by cutting. When the diagonal cutting is performed, as shown in fig. 16 and 17, only the first positioning member 60 may be provided, and the second positioning member 70 is not required.

The ceramic tile is cut diagonally, and the size of the diagonal cut needs to be adjusted frequently. To this end, referring to fig. 7, the second working platform 210 is provided with a plurality of receiving slots 214 arranged along a first direction X, and the receiving slots 214 extend along a second direction Y perpendicular to the first direction X. In this embodiment, the receiving groove 214 of the second work surface 210 is divided into two sections due to the existence of the second cutting groove 2111. The first positioning element 60 is mounted in at least one of the receiving slots 214, specifically, the first positioning element 60 is mounted in one of the sections of the receiving slot 214, and the position of the first positioning element 610 of the first positioning element 60 in the second direction Y is adjustable. In addition, the second positioning element 70 may also be installed in one of the receiving slots 214, and the position of the second positioning element 710 in the second direction Y is adjustable.

Referring to fig. 16 and 17 together, when the diagonal cutting size needs to be adjusted, the position of the first positioning member 60 in the second direction Y is adjusted, the size of the workpiece 300 positioned on the side of the guide bar 30 adjacent to the first positioning member 60 is changed, and then the diagonal cutting is performed, so that small tiles having right triangles with different sizes can be obtained. The first positioning element 610 in fig. 17 is further from the guide 30 than in fig. 16, so that cutting in the position shown in fig. 17 will result in a right-angled triangular tile of greater dimensions.

In the above embodiment, the second work surface 210 is provided with a plurality of receiving slots 214 arranged along the first direction X. The first table surface 110 is also provided with a plurality of receiving grooves 214 extending in the second direction and arranged in the first direction X. The first positioning assembly 60 may mate with a receiving slot 214 on the first table top 110 and/or the second table top 210. The specific matching mode is flexibly set according to the specification and the size of the first positioning assembly 60 and the size of the ceramic tile to be positioned.

The manner of engagement of the first positioning member 60 with the receiving groove 214 is not limited. In one possible embodiment, referring to fig. 15, the first positioning assembly 60 includes a first positioning member 610, a first sliding rail 620 and a first locking assembly 630, wherein the first sliding rail 620 is used for being fixed in the receiving slot 214, and the first locking assembly 630 is used for locking the position of the first positioning member 610 on the first sliding rail 620.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 13, the first positioning element 610 has at least one fixing hole 613. Referring to fig. 10 and 11, the first locking assembly 630 includes a first sliding connection portion 631 and a first locking knob 632 respectively located at two sides of the first positioning member 610, when the first positioning member 60 is in an operating state, the first sliding connection portion 631 is slidably connected to the first sliding rail 620, and the first locking knob 632 passes through the first positioning member 610 and is in threaded connection with the first sliding connection portion 631, so as to achieve the sliding connection between the first positioning member 610 and the first sliding rail 620. When the position of the first positioning element 610 in the second direction Y needs to be adjusted, the first locking knob 632 is loosened, and after the first positioning element 610 is moved to the right position, the first locking knob 632 is tightened again, so that the first positioning element 610 is pressed on the second box 20 by the first locking knob 632.

The position of the second positioning member 710 in the second direction Y is adjustable, and in one embodiment, the position of the second positioning member 710 is adjustable in a manner identical to that of the first positioning member 610. Specifically, referring to fig. 15, the second positioning member 710 includes a second positioning member 710 having a second positioning surface 711, a second sliding rail 720 and a third locking assembly 730. The second slide rail 720 and the second locking assembly 730 are identical in structure to the first slide rail 620 and the first locking assembly 630, respectively. That is, the second locking assembly 730 includes a second sliding connector (not shown) slidably connected to the second sliding rail 720 and a second locking knob 732, wherein the second locking knob 732 is threadedly engaged with the second sliding connector, so as to press the second positioning member 710 against the second container 20. By adjusting the position of the second positioning element 720 on the second sliding rail 710, the position of the second positioning surface 711 can be changed, and the positioning effect on the workpiece 300 can be further changed, which is not described again.

It is understood that the first positioning member 610 is adjustable in position and the second positioning member 710 is adjustable in position, either simultaneously or alternatively. When the two are implemented simultaneously, the structures of the second slide rail 720 and the second locking assembly 730 are completely the same as the structures of the first slide rail 620 and the first locking assembly 630, so that the first positioning member 610 and the second positioning member 710 can be freely taken and used when being installed, and the parts are generalized.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 13, one end of the first positioning member 610 is further provided with an arc-shaped slot 614. With the curved slot 614, a bevel cut may be made. Specifically, as shown in fig. 18, a first locking assembly 630 is disposed at a fixing hole 613 for connecting the first positioning member 610 and the first sliding rail 620, and the first locking knob 630 of the first locking assembly 630 is used as a pivot, and another first locking assembly 630 is disposed at the arc-shaped groove 614. Such that the first positioning member 610 can be pivoted at an angle such that the first positioning surface 611 is not parallel to the guide bar 30, and then the first locking assembly 630 at the arcuate slot 614 is tightened. As shown in fig. 18, the sides of the workpiece 300 are not parallel to the guide bar 30, and thus a bevel edge cut may be made by moving the power tool 2000 in a first direction.

In some embodiments, the first sliding rail 620 is detachably fixed in the receiving groove 214. In a specific embodiment, referring to fig. 9 and 12, a mounting hole 621 is formed at one end of the first sliding rail 620. The first positioning assembly 600 further includes a cam handle 640 and a limiting member 650, wherein the cam handle 640 is rotatably connected to the first sliding rail 620, and the limiting member 650 is configured to be engaged with the mounting hole 621. Referring to fig. 12, when the first slide rail 620 is mounted, one end of the first slide rail 620 having the mounting hole 621 is inserted into the receiving groove 214, the limiting member 622 passes through the mounting hole 621 and extends into the second cutting groove 2111, the cam handle 640 is rotated to make the cam handle 640 abut against the outer end surface of the second box 20 extending along the first direction X, and the limiting member 650 abuts against the groove wall of the second cutting groove 2111. That is, the cam handle 640 and the stopper 650 are respectively abutted against the opposite end surfaces of the receiving groove 214, thereby fixing the first slide rail 620 in the receiving groove 214. When the disassembly is required, the cam handle 640 is rotated and no longer abuts against the second box 20, so that the first slide rail 620 and the stopper 650 can be removed together. The stopper 650 includes a fastener such as a screw or a bolt.

Further, in order to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the first sliding rail 620, in a specific embodiment, referring to fig. 12, the limiting member 651 includes a head 651 and a body 652, and an outer diameter of the head 651 is greater than an outer diameter of the body 652. Referring to fig. 9, the mounting hole 621 includes a large-diameter hole 6211 and a small-diameter hole 6212 communicating with each other in the extending direction of the first slide rail 620, wherein the large-diameter hole 6211 is closer to the cam handle 640, the large-diameter hole 6211 has a size adapted to the outer diameter of the head 651, and the small-diameter hole 6212 has a size corresponding to the outer diameter of the body 652 but not allowing the head 651 to pass therethrough. When the first sliding rail 620 is installed, the body 652 of the limiting member 650 may first pass through the large-diameter hole 6211 and then slide into the small-diameter hole 6212, and then the end of the first sliding rail 620 having the installation hole 621 is inserted into the receiving groove 214, so that the limiting member 622 passes through the installation hole 621 and extends into the second cutting groove 2111, and the cam handle 640 is rotated to make the cam handle 640 abut against the outer end surface of the second box body 20 extending along the first direction X, and the limiting member 650 abuts against the groove wall of the second cutting groove 2111. In the installation process, the limiting member 711 can be conveniently connected with the second sliding rail 710.

For the second slide rail 720, the structure is completely the same as the first slide rail 620, so the installation can be performed in the same way, and the description thereof is omitted. Of course, the first sliding rail 620 and the second sliding rail 720 can be fixed in the receiving groove 214 by other methods, such as directly screwed to the bottom of the receiving groove 214.

Referring to fig. 19 and 20, in order to ensure that the cut workpiece 300 is cut precisely along a predetermined position. In some embodiments, the kit further includes a cutting indicator 80. The cutting indicator 80 includes a coupling portion 810 coupled to the guide bar 30 and an indicating portion 820 having opposite ends in the first direction, at least one of the ends being provided with an indicating structure 821. When the device is specifically arranged, the combining portion 810 and the guide rod 30 are arranged to be in sliding connection, the indicating structures 821 are arranged on two sides of the indicating portion 822, and the indicating structures 821 are triangular grooves. When the power tool 200 is cutting, the cutting plane is opposite to the angular bisector of the triangular groove. Thus, referring to fig. 21, the operator can predict the position of the cutting line M on the workpiece 300, and can adjust the position of the workpiece to be cut accordingly.

The indicating structure 821 is not limited to the triangular groove in the above-described embodiment. Such as indicator 821 may also be a triangular projection or an arrow mark.

In a specific embodiment, a side of the combining portion 810 is formed with a clamping portion 811, and the clamping portion 811 is configured to be slidably connected to the guide groove 301 of the guide rail 30. The combining part 810 and the guide rod 30 are connected in a sliding mode, so that the position of the cutting indicator 820 on the guide rod can be conveniently adjusted, and different operation requirements are met.

In the above embodiment, the first sliding rail 620 of the first positioning component 60 is fixed in the receiving slot 214, and the position of the first positioning component 60 on the first sliding rail 620 is adjustable, so that the diagonal cutting with adjustable size can be realized. However, the implementation of the first positioning assembly 60 to enable the size-adjustable diagonal cutting is not limited to the above-described embodiment.

Referring to fig. 24, in another embodiment, the first working platform 110 and the second working platform 210 of the tool box 100 are respectively provided with a plurality of positioning holes 101, forming positioning hole arrays along the first direction X and the second direction Y. The first positioning component comprises a plate-shaped first positioning piece 610 and a first fastening piece 660, and right-angled triangular grooves 612 are formed in two opposite sides of the first positioning piece 610 and used for positioning one corner of the workpiece 300. The first positioning element 610 defines at least one sliding slot 615. The first fastener 660 is slidable in the runner 615. When the first positioning member 610 is fixed, the first fastening member 660 passes through the sliding slot 615 and is connected with the positioning hole 101, so that the first positioning member 610 is pressed. When the position of the first positioning member 610 is adjusted, the first fastening member 660 is loosened, the first positioning member 610 is moved to a proper position, and then the first fastening member 660 is fastened again. Specifically, the positioning hole 101 is a threaded hole, and the first fastening member 660 is a bolt connection member.

Referring to FIG. 25, in yet another embodiment, another approach to positioning the workpiece 300 is provided without utilizing the first positioning assembly 60 and the second positioning assembly 70. Specifically, the first work table 110 and the second work table 210 are respectively provided with a plurality of positioning holes 101 arranged in an array. The tool box 100 further includes a clamp 50 for holding a workpiece 300 commonly supported by the first and second work surfaces 110, 210. Wherein the clamping member 50 cooperates with the locating hole 101 to press the workpiece 300 against the tool box. Specifically, the positioning hole 101 is a threaded hole, and the clamping member 50 is a bolt connector. The workpiece 300 is supported on both the first table surface 110 and the second table surface 210 and is positioned by at least 2 clamps 50. The guide bar 30 is a two-part screw connection, and has two ends fixed to the first handle 120 and the second handle 220 of the tool box 100, respectively. Further, the guide bar 30 may also adopt a folded structure shown in fig. 5 and 6.

The plurality of positioning holes 101 form an array, which provides more choices for the arrangement position of the clamping member 50 and can cut workpieces of various specifications. However, the positioning holes 101 are not limited to the manner of forming an array, and the number of the positioning holes 101 may be only one at minimum.

Referring to fig. 26, in yet another embodiment, another scheme for positioning a workpiece 300 is provided. The first and second work surfaces 110 and 210 of the tool box 100 are respectively provided with a plurality of positioning holes 101, forming positioning hole arrays along the first and second directions X and Y. The first positioning assembly 60 includes a first positioning element 610, a first sliding rail 620 and a first fastening element 660, wherein the first positioning element 610 is fixedly connected to the first sliding rail 620, the first sliding rail 620 is provided with a sliding groove 622, and the first fastening element 660 can slide in the sliding groove 622. In specific implementation, the number of the first sliding rails 620 is two, and each first sliding rail 620 is provided with a sliding groove 622.

When the first positioning member 610 is fixed, the first fastening member 660 passes through the sliding groove 622 and is connected with the positioning hole 101, so as to fix the first sliding rail 620 to the first working platform 110 or the second working platform 210. When the position of the first positioning element 610 needs to be adjusted, the first fastening element 660 is loosened, the first sliding rail 620 is moved along the second direction Y, the first sliding rail 620 moves relative to the first fastening element 660 and drives the first positioning element 610, and after the first positioning element 610 is moved to a proper position, the first fastening element 660 is fastened again to fix the first positioning element 610 again. Specifically, the positioning hole 101 is a threaded hole, and the first fastening member 660 is a bolt connection member.

In this embodiment, the first sliding rail 620 is moved to drive the first positioning element 610 to move, and the first positioning element 610 does not need to be provided with a sliding slot, a fixing hole, and other structures, so that the first positioning element 610 has a relatively simple structure. The positioning hole 101 is provided in plural and forms an array, so that the position of the first positioning member 610 in the first direction X can be adjusted as well as the position of the first positioning member 610 in the second direction Y.
