A drilling jig for drilling a punching hole with a boundary between a basis material and a coating of a workpiece less noticeable, and a drilling method using this drilling jig. It includes a male blade, a female blade, and a hexagon bolt; the male blade and the hexagon bolt are capable of being coupled to each other; a screw hole, through which the hexagon bolt is inserted, and a blade portion are formed in the male blade; the blade portion has a planar blade surface; a shaft insertion hole, through which the hexagon bolt is inserted, and a blade portion housing hole capable of housing the blade portion are formed in the female blade, whereby the boundary between the basis material and the coating of a bumper can be positioned on the inside of the punching hole, preventing the appearance of the punching hole from being impaired.

A punch set for use with a punch tool to punch material from a wall of an electrical box. The punch set has a punch with a cutting section, and a die defining a cavity that is configured to receive the cutting section. The cutting section may have an annular or circular portion and a plurality of keyway forming portions each extending radially from the annular or circular portion. The cutting section of the punch may be insertable into the cavity of the die in a single orientation. The die may have a protrusion receivable within a recess of the punch when the cutting section is received in the cavity. One of the die or punch may have an extension that is receivable in a single orientation within an opening in the other of the die or punch.

A hand-held knockout driver includes a main housing having a handle portion, a motor positioned within the main housing, a pump assembly driven by the motor, and a secondary housing coupled to the main housing and defining a bore therein. The hand-held knockout driver also includes a working piston moveable within the bore from a rest position to an actuated position to define a piston throw distance therebetween. The hand-held knockout driver also includes a draw stud coupled to the working piston, a die coupled to the secondary housing, and a punch coupled to the draw stud opposite the working piston for movement therewith relative to the die. The die has a depth greater than the piston throw distance.

A hand-held knockout punch driver includes a housing, a motor positioned within the housing, a head unit removably coupled to the housing, the head unit including a body, an input member movable relative to the body, and a draw rod to which at least one of a punch or a die is attachable. The draw rod is configured to move axially relative to the body in response to movement of the input member relative to the body. A quick-release mechanism removably couples the body to the housing and includes radially inward-extending locking members on one of the housing or the head unit and a plurality of radially outward-extending locking members on the other of the housing or the head unit engageable with the radially inward-extending locking members to lock the head unit to the housing.

A method for manufacturing a hot pressed product by heating a sheet material and quenching the sheet material while molding the sheet material includes a hole forming step of forming a pilot hole in the sheet material; a heating step of heating the sheet material in which the pilot hole is formed; and a molding step of forming a burred portion at the pilot hole by using a burring punch included in a die set while molding the sheet material in the die set. The pilot hole has an opening shape in which convex portions and concave portions are alternately arranged. A diameter of a circumscribed circle that is in contact with the convex portions is greater than a punch diameter of the burring punch. A diameter of an inscribed circle that is in contact with the concave portions is less than the punch diameter of the burring punch.

The tool can have a face member having a die aperture, a rabbet member protruding normal to the face member, a jamb area between the rabbet member and the face member, and a punch in the jamb area, the punch being slidable into the die aperture along a punch path, and an actuator to move the punch along the punch path.

A hand-held knockout punch driver includes a housing, a motor, a drive assembly with an output member movable relative to the housing, and a head unit removably coupled to the housing. The head unit includes a body, an input member movable relative to the body, and a draw rod to which a punch or a die is attachable. The draw rod is configured to move axially relative to the body in response to movement of the input member relative to the body. The knockout punch driver also includes a quick-release mechanism to removably couple the body to the housing. The output member is configured to engage the input member such that the input member moves relative to the body in response to movement of the output member relative to the housing, and the body engages the quick release mechanism separately from engagement between the output member and the input member.

A restraining material includes a frictional surface configured to press against an object to restrain the object and exert a frictional force thereon. The frictional surface is a pattern surface of a base material of the restraining member that will directly contact with the object. The pattern surface includes island-shaped parts separated by a depression and periodically arranged. The depression has a depth of 15 to 50 m with respect to the frictional surface. A periodic arrangement direction of the island-shaped parts includes a direction defined by that: a pattern index determined by dividing an arrangement pitch of the island-shaped parts in a periodic arrangement direction by the maximum diameter of each island-shaped part in the periodic arrangement direction falls within a range of 1.0 to 100, and the maximum diameter of each island-shaped part in the periodic arrangement direction falls within in a range of 0.1 to 2 mm.

A punch tool assembly for punch cutting a workpiece is disclosed. The punch tool assembly connectable to a movable piston. The punch tool assembly has a draw stud, a removable connector for connecting the draw stud to the piston, and a die receiving the draw stud therethrough. The die is disposed on a side of the workpiece. A quick-release nut engages the draw stud. The nut is disposed on the other side of the workpiece. The nut has threaded nut segments that threadingly engage the draw stud, and at least one spring biasing the nut segments towards each other. A cutter is disposed on the draw stud between the other side of the workpiece and the nut.

A numerical controller controlling punching performs punching according to a machining program, detects a phenomenon that the punching is not normally completed, collects and stores information required for re-execution of a block in which the phenomenon is generated, and restores a machining state at the time of occurrence of the phenomenon and further re-executes the punching by using the information.
