SAFETY DEVICE FOR A COUNTERSINK TOOL
20230016557 · 2023-01-19 ·

A deburring mechanism with a rotatable countersink, a cylindrical shaft, a conical cutting contour and a cylindrical cutting edge configured to mount to a driven workstation shaft so that when a workpiece comes in contact with the cutting edge, burrs are removed from the workpiece. The deburring mechanism has a safety device attached to the shaft and adjacent the countersink. The safety device has a rotationally symmetric body with openings through which removed burrs move, a circular outer guard, a mounting portion with legs and a hexagonal mounting contour corresponding with an interior bore of the driven shaft and configured such that a driving connection of the countersink only occurs when the safety device is assembled and overlaps the transition area with a protective contour.

Systems and Methods for Conduit Deburr
20230087647 · 2023-03-23 ·

Systems and methods for conduit deburring include rotational bits and/or supporting structure for reducing burrs on conduit or other pipe or tubing, which often result from cutting. Certain devices simultaneously act on an entire circumference of a tubular end opening. Other devices act on only a portion of a circumference of a tubular end opening, but are guided, registered, or oriented for travel along the circumference to cut a chamfer of a predetermined angle along an interior edge thereof.

TWIST DRILL BIT
20230089637 · 2023-03-23 ·

A boring tool may include a coupling portion for interfacing with a powered driver, a shank operably coupled to the coupling portion, a cutting portion operably coupled to the shank, and a cutting tip operably coupled to a distal end of the cutting portion relative to the shank. The coupling portion, the shank, the cutting portion and the cutting tip share an axis. The cutting portion may be defined by a plurality of helical cutting flutes that have a variable rate that increases as distance from the cutting tip increases. The shank may include a torsion zone and the cutting tip may include a point angle between about 120 degrees and about 90 degrees.

TOOL BITS AND BIT HOLDERS HAVING NON-CIRCULAR CROSS-SECTIONS

The drill bit is permanently connected to the distal end, and the proximal end is configured to insert into the bit-receiving aperture.

Integrated drill chuck

An integrated drill chuck for installing mine roof bolts includes a single integrated piece, the single integrated piece including a body defining a receiving cavity, where the receiving cavity is configured to receive and secure a bit having a square-shaped end and a bit having a hex-shaped end. A drill for installing mine roof bolts is also disclosed. A method for installing mine roof bolts is also disclosed.

ACCESSORY TOOL

An accessory tool includes an adapter end, and a shank coupled to the adapter end and including a first length. The shank includes a tool engagement portion, and a first reduced portion disposed between the tool engagement portion and the adapter end. The first reduced portion has a second length. The shank additionally includes a second reduced portion formed in the tool engagement portion between the first reduced portion and an end of the shank. The second length is 2.5% to 15% of a total length of the accessory tool.

Accessory tool

An accessory tool includes an adapter end having a maximum outer dimension, and a shank coupled to the adapter end. The shank includes a tool engagement portion including a cross section having a maximum outer width, a first reduced portion disposed between the tool engagement portion and the adapter end and having a first minimum outer dimension and a first length, and a second reduced portion formed in the tool engagement portion between the first reduced portion and an end of the shank. The second reduced portion is engaged by the tool to secure the shank to the tool, and has a second minimum outer dimension and a second length. The maximum outer dimension is greater than the maximum outer width. The maximum outer width is greater than the first minimum outer dimension and greater the second minimum outer dimension. The first length is greater than the second length.
