DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, in which the present invention of a measure module is shown. The measure module can be installed on a machine tool. In the embodiment of the present invention the measure module 1 is installed on a bandsaw 3. The bandsaw 3 includes a foundation 31 and an inclinable member 32. The inclinable member 32 comprises an adjustment part 321, a motor 322, and a knife 323. The adjustment part 321 pivoted on the foundation 31 can be adjusted at a different angle corresponding to the foundation 31. The motor 322 is fixed on the adjustment part 321. The knife 323 connected to the shaft of the motor 322 can be driven by the motor 322 to rotate to cut a workpiece like wood. The workpiece can be cut to form a bevel which we need via the adjustment part 321.

The measure module 1 includes a monitor 11, a control unit 12, and a sensor 13. The monitor 11 is like a LCD (liquid crystal display) or a LED (Light Emitting Diode) monitor.

The control unit 12 is electrically connected with the monitor 11. The control unit 12 can be designed to separated from the monitor 11 or combined with the monitor 11. In the embodiment the control unit 12 is combined with the monitor 11. The control unit 12 comprises a circuit board, several batteries for supplying power (not shown in the Figs.) and a plurality of keys 121. The keys 121 are electrically connected with the circuit board. The control unit 12 has the functions of on/off, setting and adjusting.

The sensor 13 is electrically connected with the control unit 12 and the monitor 11. The sensor 13 can be designed to separate from the control unit 12 and the monitor 11 or combine with the control unit 12 and the monitor 11. In the embodiment, the sensor 13 is separated from the control unit 12 and the monitor 11. The sensor 13 is electrically connected with the control unit 12 via a signal line 131. The sensor 13 is used for detecting a bevel corresponding to level and transmitting signals to the control unit 12 and the monitor 11. It shows the angle by the monitor 11.

Please refer to FIG. 2, in which the present invention of a measure module 1 installed on a bandsaw 3 is shown. The bandsaw 3 has an inclinable member 32. The measure module 1 is installed on the inclinable member 32 of the bandsaw 3. In the embodiment, the monitor 11 and the sensor 13 are installed on the front side of the motor 322. When the inclinable member 32 of the bandsaw 3 is used to adjust an angle, the sensor 13 can detect the angle and transmit it to the control unit 12 and the monitor 11. The angle is shown via the monitor 11.

Please refer to FIG. 3 showing the measure module 1 installed on a drilling machine 5. The drilling machine has an inclinable member 51. The sensor 13 is installed on the inclinable member 51 of the drilling machine 5. When the inclinable member 51 of the drilling machine 5 is used to adjust an angle, the sensor 13 can detect the angle and transmit it to the control unit 12 and the monitor 11. The angle is shown via the monitor 11. Furthermore, the present invention of the measure module 1 also can be installed on a milling machine or other machine tools which have an inclinable member.

Please refer to FIG. 4 showing the measure module 1 installed on another type of bandsaw 6. The sensor 13 is installed on an inclinable member 61 of the bandsaw 6.

In the above embodiments, the measure module 1 is installed on the machine tool via external connection. The measure module 1 also can be installed on the machine tool via internal connection.

When the machine tool is adjusted to an angle, the measure module 1 can display the angle via the monitor 11. The way of the display is accurate and convenient to operate for users. It can achieve the adjustment of the angle quickly and increase the convenience to the machine tool.

Although the present invention has been described with reference to the preferred best molds thereof, it will be understood that the invention is not limited to the details thereof. Various substitutions and modifications have been suggested in the foregoing description, and others will occur to those of ordinary skill in the art. Therefore, all such substitutions and modifications are intended to be embraced within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
