A hole saw having an internal saw with a circular sidewall including a working end including teeth and a backwall connected to the sidewall. The backwall includes an aperture concentrically located with respect to the circular sidewall for receiving a pilot drill designed to extend beyond the working end of the circular sidewall. The hole saw also has an external saw with a circular sidewall with a greater diameter than the circular sidewall of the internal saw. The circular sidewall of the external saw has teeth and an oppositely located proximal end that includes tangs separated by notches. A base plate is fastened to the circular sidewall of the external saw. The base plate includes a plurality of apertures for fixing the base plate to the backwall of the internal saw and locating the circular sidewalls concentric with respect to each other.

A dynamically configurable arbor assembly apparatus. The dynamically configurable arbor assembly apparatus provides plural configurations with removable and attachable components that can be dynamically adjusted and configured to be used with a large variety of power tools, lathes and/or milling machines including plural different attachment interfaces. The dynamically configurable arbor assembly apparatus can also replace a chuck component the power tools, lathes and/or milling machines.

Hole-saws are provided herein, and more specifically to hole-saw assemblies and processes having adjustable platters for multiple simultaneous saw components, optional elimination of a guide drill, and the ability to retrieve cores of a sawed work piece before sawing completely through the workpiece. One hole-saw device, may have a motive force; a base plate rotatable by the motive force; cutters; and locking mechanisms to mount the base plate to the cutters.

A cutting tool includes a hole saw and an arbor assembly removably coupled to the hole saw. The arbor assembly includes a shank having a first end, a second end opposite the first end and configured to be coupled to a power tool, a body between the first and second ends, and an longitudinal axis extending centrally through the shank between the first and second ends. The body includes a recess. The arbor assembly also includes a sleeve supported by the shank, the sleeve including a central bore that receives the shank and a locking member positioned in the central bore, the locking member formed as a single, monolithic piece with a remainder of the sleeve, the sleeve moveable between a first position, in which the locking member engages the recess, and a second position, in which the locking member is spaced apart from the recess.

A support assembly for a core drill which utilizes an improved high strength spoked reinforcer. The reinforcer may be removably mounted a core drill tube by fasteners. A drive connection is removably mounted and centrally located on an outer disc of a pair of discs. The drive connection is adapted to connect with a drive shaft to cause rotation of the tube. The assembly can also include a split in the disc when the high strength spoked reinforcer is not welded thereto, thereby providing a means of water control. The high strength spoked reinforcer can be a separate piece that is bolted to the disc or can be integrally formed as one piece therewith.

An arbor for a hole saw an arbor stem, an actuator, and at least one post. The arbor stem includes at least one arm having a threaded portion configured to engage the hole saw. The actuator is rotatable about a central axis of the arbor to move the at least one arm. The actuator includes a surface facing the at least one arm and a track. The track is recessed from the surface of the actuator. The at least one post extends from the at least one arm to engage the track. The arm is movable in a radial direction in response to rotation of the actuator to vary a circumference of the arbor stem.

The present invention relates to a long hole saw for a composite material insulation panel for easily cutting a steel sheet of a hard material and a heat insulator such as Styrofoam or urethane of a soft material in one direction, wherein it is possible to reduce shaking vibrations generated during the cutting and to easily, precisely, and stably drill holes when drilling holes for the installation of pipes, conduits, etc. into a composite material insulation panel used for wall or roof construction of a building.

A bit-removal assembly includes a first ring coupled to an output shaft for co-rotation therewith, a second ring supported on the lower retaining ring of the output shaft, a frusto-conical surface on at least one of the first or second rings, and a wedge positioned between the first and second rings and engaging with the frusto-conical surface. A collar defines a cam surface located radially outward of the wedge. The collar is movable between a locked position, in which the cam surface is engaged with the wedge to displace the wedge radially inward on the frusto-conical surface to separate the second ring from the first ring, and a released position, in which the cam surface is misaligned with the wedge to permit the wedge to move radially outward on the frusto-conical surface. A biasing member urges the collar towards the locked position.

A hole cutting accessory for a power-driven tool may include an arbor that provides for quick release of an annular saw blade component of the accessory, and for quick release of a pilot drill bit component of the accessory. The quick release of the annular saw blade component from the arbor may be accomplished separately from the quick release of the pilot drill bit component from the arbor.

A cutting tool includes a hole saw, a pilot bit, and an arbor assembly. The arbor assembly includes a shank, a body, a first engagement member moveable relative to the shank, the first engagement member engaging the hole saw to releasably secure the hole saw to the shank, and a second engagement member moveable relative to the shank, the second engagement member engaging the pilot bit to releasably secure the pilot bit to the shank. The body is moveable to a first position where the hole saw and the pilot bit are secured to the arbor assembly, to a second position where the first engagement member disengages the hole saw, allowing removal of the hole saw from the shank, and to a third position where the second engagement member disengages the pilot bit, allowing removal of the pilot bit from the shank.
