Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cutting machines, specifically to a manual tile cutting machine. Background Technology

[0002] Existing T-shaped push cutters have several issues that result in poor marking performance on ceramic or glass surfaces, leading to cutting failures or inaccurate final cutting accuracy. Analysis reveals the following main influencing factors: First, the slider on the aluminum profile guide rail may loosen after repeated sliding, primarily due to slippage of the bearings on the aluminum profile and slider. This causes the connected ruler and cutting head to wobble, resulting in inaccurate marking. Second, to ensure smooth sliding, the gap between the cutting head and the ruler is typically large. This can cause offset during distance locking, leading to distance errors and affecting cutting performance, while also hindering smooth sliding. Finally, when marking small tiles, their weight and insufficient friction can cause accidental movement during the marking process, resulting in marking failure.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new technical solution. Utility Model Content
