ROUTER AND DEBRIS RECEPTACLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240024997 titled 'ROUTER AND DEBRIS RECEPTACLE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a debris receptacle for a router table that is attached to the router table and designed to receive debris from the router. The receptacle includes an enclosure with an interior that receives debris from the router bit aperture via a debris inlet aperture. The enclosure also has a debris outlet aperture that connects to a dust collector to remove debris from the interior. Additionally, the enclosure has an air inlet aperture that allows air from the environment outside the enclosure to enter. The receptacle includes an air intake conduit that connects the air inlet aperture to the router's air inlet, enabling the router to draw in air from the outside to cool itself.
- The debris receptacle is attached to a router table and collects debris generated by the router.
- The enclosure of the receptacle has an interior that receives debris from the router bit aperture.
- The debris is directed into the interior of the enclosure through a debris inlet aperture.
- The enclosure also has a debris outlet aperture that connects to a dust collector to remove debris.
- The enclosure has an air inlet aperture that allows outside air to enter.
- An air intake conduit connects the air inlet aperture to the router's air inlet, enabling the router to draw in outside air for cooling.
Potential Applications
- Woodworking: The debris receptacle can be used in woodworking applications where routers are commonly used, such as cabinetry, furniture making, and carpentry.
- Construction: The receptacle can be utilized in construction projects that involve routing tasks, such as creating precise cuts in materials like plywood or MDF.
- DIY Projects: Hobbyists and DIY enthusiasts can benefit from using the debris receptacle when working with routers for various projects.
Problems Solved
- Debris Management: The debris receptacle solves the problem of managing and containing debris generated by the router, keeping the work area clean and reducing the risk of debris scattering.
- Cooling Efficiency: By enabling the router to draw in outside air, the receptacle improves the cooling efficiency of the router, preventing overheating and potential damage to the tool.
Benefits
- Clean Workspace: The debris receptacle helps maintain a clean and organized workspace by collecting debris directly from the router.
- Dust Control: The connection to a dust collector ensures efficient removal of debris, minimizing airborne dust particles and improving air quality.
- Router Protection: By facilitating better cooling, the receptacle helps protect the router from overheating, extending its lifespan and reducing the need for repairs or replacements.
Original Abstract Submitted
a debris receptacle for a router table includes an enclosure configured to be attached to the router table. the enclosure defines an interior sized and shaped to receive a router. the enclosure defines a debris inlet aperture in fluid communication with a router bit aperture of the work platform so that the interior receives the debris from router bit aperture via the debris inlet aperture. the enclosure also defines a debris outlet aperture in fluid communication with a dust collector to remove debris from the interior. the enclosure further defines an air inlet aperture in fluid communication with air in an environment outside the enclosure. the debris receptacle also includes an air intake conduit for fluidly coupling the air inlet aperture to an air inlet of the router, thereby enabling the router to draw air into the router from the environment outside the enclosure to cool the router.
