A device for clamping a workpiece has a receiving head in a housing connected to a rotary drive with a rigid drive connection between a drive motor and the receiving head, radially adjustable clamping jaws connected to a clamping drive externally clamping the workpiece, and linear drives displacing the clamping jaws and forming the clamping drive driven jointly by a gear transmission with a central gear coaxial to the drive shaft of the receiving head by a separate drive motor. The central gear can be driven synchronously with the receiving head in the clamping position of the clamping jaws, and the rotary drive for the central gear comprises a rigid drive connection between its drive motor and the central gear or a superimposed gear comprising two input shafts drive-connected to the drive motor for the rotary drive of the receiving head and to the drive motor for the central gear.

Provided is an apparatus for stably removing plugging even in a state in which combustible gas or liquid remains in a pipe and precisely removing plugging even using small force.

A drill apparatus including an inner tube, an outer tube slidably received within the outer tube, and a pole extension mechanism. The pole extension mechanism comprises a pole advance gear having pole advance gear teeth, and a drive gear having drive gear teeth, the drive gear being coaxial with and fixedly attached to the pole advance gear so that the two gears rotate together. The pole advance gear teeth are received in aligned spaced apart apertures in the outer tube. The pole extension mechanism further includes a lever arm having an end pivotally mounted on the support collar at a lever arm pivot point coaxial with the drive gear and the pole advance gear. The pole extension mechanism further includes a stop pawl pivotally mounted on the support collar for rotation between where the stop pawl engages the drive gear and prevents downward movement of the pole inner tube relative to the pole outer tube, and where the stop pawl does not engage the drive gear, and a drive pawl piece pivotally mounted on the lever arm near the lever arm end.

A positive feed tool includes a motor, a power supply coupled to the motor to power the motor, a gear head and a spindle. The gear head is coupled to the motor and operated responsive to powering of the motor. The gear head includes a drive assembly and a feed assembly. The spindle is coupled to the gear head to enable the spindle to be selectively driven rotationally and fed axially based on operation of the drive assembly and the feed assembly, respectively. The feed assembly includes a feed rate oscillator having a spindle feed gear coupled to a differential feed gear. The spindle feed gear is coupled to rotate the spindle to selectively axially feed the spindle. The differential feed gear is selectively coupled to an input shaft turned by the motor. The spindle feed gear or the differential feed gear has a variable pitch diameter.

An auto-adjusting pocket hole jig docking station including a housing and an adjustment mechanism. The adjustment mechanism carried by the housing and including a first rack and a second rack reciprocally movable between raised and lowered positions, relative the body. A double pinion gear is rotatably carried by the housing with a first gear in meshing engagement with the first rack and a second gear in meshing engagement with the second rack. The first gear and the second gear having a rotational ratio therebetween wherein movement of one of the first rack and the second rack moves the other of the first rack and the second rack a distance proportional to the rotational ratio.

A changer device for inserting a clamping head into and/or removing the clamping head from the clamping chuck, wherein the clamping head has a plurality of clamping jaws mutually displaceable in a radial direction and which can be mutually subjected to force by the changer device toward or away from one another in the radial direction.

The changer device has a base and a plurality of adjusting elements which are movably attached to the base and which in each case have at least one engagement portion for the application of force onto the clamping jaws.

The changer device has a drive member which is rotatably movable about a central axis relative to the base. The drive member is coupled by a gear mechanism to the adjusting elements such that by a rotational movement of the drive member the adjusting elements can be jointly moved toward one another or away from one another.

An apparatus reconfigures or configures a wheel associated with a train. The apparatus comprises a tool configured to engage the wheel a compound slide system for positioning the cutting tool in at least two axes. The compound slide system is controlled so that the wheel is configured in accordance with a profile. The slide system can be moved mechanically and/or pneumatically and/or can use a mechanical profile. The apparatus can have a low profile and a low weight.

A work tool switches smoothly between operational modes and has a lever member that is easily joined. The work tool includes an operation member, a lever member, and a switching member. The lever member is swingable about a support shaft in response to an operation on the operation member and is swingable with the support shaft placed through the lever member. The lever member has an elongated hole through which the support shaft is placed. The elongated hole extends along the lever member. The switching member is linked with a swing of the lever member to move linearly.

A positioning device for drilling including a positioning base which is provided with a positioning through hole, and a plurality of clamping assemblies which are provided on the positioning base and circumferentially spaced round a central axis a, as center, of the positioning through hole. Each of the clamping assemblies includes an abutting part having an adjustable distance from a central axis of the positioning through hole.

A drive multiplying device for simultaneous drilling of multiple holes includes a housing. A drive shaft is rotationally coupled to and positioned through a first face of the housing. A first end of the drive shaft extends from the first face of the housing. A plurality of second shafts is rotationally coupled to and positioned through a second face of the housing. A first terminus of each second shaft extends from the second face of the housing. A gear set is positioned in the housing and is gearedly coupled to the drive shaft as well as each of the second shafts. The first end of the drive shaft is configured to couple to a rotary tool. The drive shaft is positioned to compel the gear set to rotate the second shafts. Drill bits coupled to the first termini of the second shafts are rotated concurrently with the drive shaft.
