A fastener extraction ratchet bit system for facilitating extraction of stripped fasteners by permitting attachment of extraction bits to an air drive ratchet. The system includes a driving tool and a fitting coupled to and extending from the driving tool. A drill socket is coupled to a drill bit wherein the drill bit is selectively couplable to the fitting such that the driving tool provides a driving force to the drill bit. An extraction socket is coupled to an extraction bit wherein the extraction bit is also selectively couplable to the fitting such that the driving tool provides the driving force to the extraction bit.

Devices, systems and methods for holding devices, including tool holders and/or associated apparatus, that can be attached to various driving mechanisms. Various embodiments can include one or more canted, or slanted, coil springs that are capable of forming to various shapes by the application of a controlled force.

A hand-held rotary tool includes a housing that encloses a motor having an output shaft. The tool includes a quick connect adaptor configured to connect an accessory to the output shaft. The adaptor includes a driver that is connected to the output shaft and rotates in concert with the output shaft. An outer surface of the driver has a first flat. The adaptor includes a receiver that includes a connector configured to detachably connect with the housing, and a torque transfer device configured to receive the driver. An inner surface of the torque transfer device includes a second flat that engages with the first flat in such a way that rotation of the driver results in rotation the torque transfer device relative to the connector. The adaptor includes an output device that supports the accessory and that is driven by the torque transfer device to move relative to the connector.

The invention relates to a hydraulic expansion chuck comprising a main body (1) that extends along a rotational or longitudinal central axis (2) and is composed of a shaft part (20), for directly or indirectly coupling the hydraulic expansion chuck to a module of a modular tool system or to a machine spindle, and a clamping part (30), joined to the shaft part in a rotationally and axially fixed manner for receiving and clamping a shank tool. The shaft part comprises a receiving socket which extends towards the clamping part and has a central socket-opening in which a connection pin (31) of the clamping part, which pin extends towards the shaft part, is form-fittingly received. According to the invention, the clamping part comprises a stop which is radially offset from the connection pin and axially strikes the receiving socket.

A universal adapter to facilitate the easy and efficient of exchange of needle scaler and chisel accessories associated with an air tool receiver/coupler, the adapter including a sleeve with a spring and a spacer, an adapter carrying an O-ring, and an anvil member in contact with the base of a plurality of needles is disclosed herein.

Embodiments relate to a power drive adapter tool. The tool includes a drive adapter and a drill bit assembly. The drive adapter includes a body having a first end and a second end, the first end having a drive-receiving aperture configured to receive a drive from a drive tool, and the second end having a bit-receiving aperture configured to receive the drill bit assembly. The drill bit assembly has a drill bit and a connector, the connector having a proximal end and a distal end. The drill bit is permanently connected to the distal end, and the proximal end is configured to insert into the bit-receiving aperture.

An illuminated drill bit assembly for illuminating a work area for a drill without casting a shadow includes a drill bit that can be inserted into a chuck of a power drill. The drill bit has a well integrated therein for insertably receiving an additional drill bit. A cylinder is provided and the drill bit extends through the cylinder. A lighting unit is integrated into the cylinder to emit light outwardly from the cylinder when the lighting unit is turned on. In this way the lighting unit can illuminate the work area without casting a shadow.

An apparatus in the form of an adapter for forming a connection comprising a first part adapted for coupling with a second part by a quick-release coupling formed by a first projection of the first part having an at least partial dovetail shape and a recess of the second part having an at least partial dovetail shape. An opening in the recess is adapted for receiving the projection in an axial direction. In other embodiments, the adapter is: (1) frictionally enhanced for engaging an internal portion of the drilling element; (2) includes a radial projection elongated in an axial direction for engaging the internal portion of the one drilling element; and/or (3) has a cutter for scoring an internal portion of the one drilling element upon being inserted therein and rotated. An adapter is also disclosed for use with a drill check, including for creating a “twist lock” connection.

A driving adapter which is configured to be applied to a driving head of a rotary tool is provided. The driving adapter includes: a main body, including a socket portion, an insertion portion connected with the socket portion and a projection connected with the insertion portion in an axial direction, the socket portion including a connection hole which is quadrangular and extends along the axial direction, the insertion portion being a quadrangular post and extending along the axial direction, a diametric dimension of the insertion portion being different from a diametric dimension of the connection hole, the projection including an annular groove around the axial direction; an elastic retainer, being non-closed, disposed within and around the annular groove; and a cushion, disposed within the annular groove, being radially abuttable against and between the projection and the elastic retainer.

A tool holder for a machine tool, in particular for a core drilling machine, having a hollow shaft which has, at one end for coupling to the drive of the machine tool, a connector and, at the other end, a receiving opening with a plurality of openings in which locking elements are accommodated which are radially adjustable between a clamping position and an release position for securing a tool accommodated in the receiving opening. A switching sleeve is provided, which is adjustably mounted on the hollow shaft between a first switching position and a second switching position, a first subset of the locking elements being provided in the first switching position for locking the tool in the receiving opening, and a second subset of the locking elements being provided in the second switching position for locking the tool in the receiving opening, while the adjustment of the respective remaining locking elements is deactivated.
