Magnet sensing hole driller and method therefor
A portable device to drill holes has a platform. A plurality of wheel sets is coupled to the platform. A drive system is used for driving the plurality of wheels. An attachment mechanism is positioned on an underside of the platform for securing the device to a surface. A control board is used for controlling the operation of the device. A drill spindle assembly is coupled to the platform. A drill feed assembly is coupled to the drill spindle assembly for raising and lowering the drill spindle assembly. A plurality of sensors are operable to sense one or more magnets disposed below the surface. A drive table is used for positioning the drill spindle assembly in an XY plane based on an output of said plurality of sensors.
Electrically-adjustable tool holder
An electrically-adjustable tool holder precisely movable in a straight line within a magnetic field under electrical stimulation includes a handle body, a connecting member, and a driving member. The connecting member has a first end securely coupled to an end of the handle body, a second end opposite to the first end, and defines a through hole passing through the first end and the second end. The driving member includes a magnet securely received in the through hole, and an electrical electric coil movably received in the magnet. The electric coil is configured to be securely coupled to the tool, and moves the tool up or down along the central axis of the handle body.
HOLDING FORCE DETECTION FOR MAGNETIC DRILL PRESS
A drill press includes a main housing, a base coupled to the main housing, and a drill unit supported by the main housing for relative movement therewith. The base includes a bore formed in a top surface and a magnet to create a magnetic field for magnetically latching the base to a workpiece. The drill press further includes a holding force detection assembly having a plug and a sensor coupled to the plug to detect the magnetic field within the base. The holding force detection assembly is received within the bore formed in the top surface of the base.
POWER DRIVE ADAPTER TOOL
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.
Illumintated Drill Bit Assembly
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.
DRILLING MACHINE
A drilling machine, in particular a magnetic core drilling machine. The drilling machine having a magnetic base to detachably secure the drilling machine to a surface. A drive motor is arranged in a housing and has a rotor shaft with a rotor shaft longitudinal axis that is connected in a power-transmitting manner via a gear mechanism to a tool spindle with a spindle longitudinal axis. A tool holder is connected to the tool spindle to receive a drilling tool. The spindle longitudinal axis is aligned substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the rotor shaft, and the tool spindle is axially adjusted along the longitudinal axis of the spindle relative to the drive motor and the magnetic base.
TOOL BIT HOLDER
A tool bit holder includes an inner sleeve in which a longitudinal bore is defined in which a tool bit is receivable and a detent is engageable with the tool bit for locking the tool bit within the longitudinal bore. An outer sleeve surrounds the inner sleeve and is movable relative to the inner sleeve between a locking position, in which the detent is engaged with the tool bit for locking the tool bit within the longitudinal bore, and a release position, in which the detent may be disengaged from the tool bit to permit removal of the tool bit from the longitudinal bore. A spring is positioned between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve. The spring biases the outer sleeve toward the locking position
MAGNETIC BASE
A magnetic base for an electric machine tool, in particular for a magnetic core drilling machine. A body that is accommodated in a receiving space. At least one first magnet coil constituting an electromagnet, a coil winding of the at least one first magnet coild being wound on a bobbin and a magnetic force of which is switchable between a maximum resultant holding force and a minimum resultant holding force. The coil winding of the magnet coil has two end sections that are each connected to a connecting cable that serves to make electrical contact between the magnetic coil and the electric machine tool. The body has a first side adapted to be coupled to the electric machine tool and has an opposite second side adapted to be placed on a workpiece that is to be processed. End sections of the coil winding are connected to the connecting cables.
