An Improved Saw specially applicable for use when there is a
Continuous Feed.
We, EDWARD GODDARD, of The Hall, North Ferriby, Timber Merchant, ALFRED
HowES, of 29, Pemberton Street, Hull, Saw Sharpener, and JOIN CHAMBERS, of
Workington Avenue, Nornabell Street, Hull, Foreman, all in the County of
Yorkshire, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
Our invention relates to saws, more particularly those for cutting in log frames,
deal frames, horizontal machines and cross cuts, and having an up and down or a
backward and forward motion, our object being to provide saws for the before-
mentioned purposes which will cut up and down that is both on the up and the down
stroke when worked with a continuous feed, with ease and with the minimum
amount of strain on the machinery, our improved saws being more easily sharpened
than existing saws used for the same purpose.
We construct our improved saws with preferably square or oblong shaped pieces
or projections rising from the base or plain part of the saw, each of these square or
the like shaped pieces are provided with a triangular cutter or tooth brought to a
point, the base of the tooth being preferably shorter in length than the top of the
square from which it projects thus leaving a ledge on either side, the tooth being
however of the same thickness as the square or other shaped piece of which it
forms part.
Saws constructed as described are specially applicable in cases where the feed is
continuous and not intermittent, and work with greater ease than existing saws
for the same purpose.

An Improved Saw specially applicable for use when there is a
Continuous Feed.
We, EDWARD GODDARD, of The Hall, North Ferriby, Timber Merchant, ALFRED
Howes, of 29, Pemberton Street, Hull, Saw Sharpener, and JOHN CHAMBERS, of
Workington Avenue, Nornabell Street, Hull, Foreman, all in the County of
Yorkshire, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the
[Price Sdl

page_text: same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the
following statement: -
Our invention relates to an improvement in saws and more particularly to such
saws as are used in log-frames, deal frames, and other like sawing machinery,
and to cross cut saws, which have a reciprocating or to and fro motion and a
continuous feed, the object being to construct a saw which will cut equally well
during the up stroke as on the down stroke, which will cut clean, keep cool, and
thus retain its temper and consequent durability.
Our improvement is illustrated in the annexed sheet of drawings; like letters
refer to like parts in any of the figures.
Fig. 1, represents part of a saw blade with the teeth constructed according to
our invention.
1
Fig. 2, the same, with the teeth modified in form.
Fig. 3, another modification in form of tooth.
It will be understood that our invention refers to the construction of the teeth or
cutting parts and not to the plate of the saw, and we wish it to be understood
we are aware of various forms of teeth constructed to cut in both directions with a
continuous feed, and therefore we make no claim to such teeth broadly, but only to
the teeth hereafter described with any mere modifications of same.
Referring to Fig. 1, of the drawings which clearly illustrates the invention, the
teeth are separated as usual by gullets G, preferably rounded but they may be of
other form such as in Fig. 2 if preferred.
The body of the tooth B, rises from the saw plate S, in an approximately
square or oblong form, and centrally from the edge thereof a triangular point P,
projects as shown, its base being less than the width of the body, and thus leaving
on each side a corner or clearing point C; all the parts being the same thickness
as the plate or blade of the saw.
The points P, may be set in the usual manner.
If desirable for any purpose, such as to suit different woods, we may modify
the form of the corners C, so as to produce a more acute angle, see Fig. 2, or as
shown in Fig. 3, we may contract the mouth or opening into the gullet G, to
alter the angle of the under face of the point C.
These are mere modifications of the form of tooth shown in Fig. 1.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what
we claim, is:
1. A saw blade provided with teeth having a body B, rising from the saw plate S,
and terminating with a central tooth or point P, having on each side of its base a
clearing point C, as hereinbefore described and shown.
2. A saw provided with teeth constructed with a central point of triangular form,
and on each side of the base of the point, a clearing corner or point more or less
acute as hereinbefore described and set forth.
