A feed control device for a drill press includes a case and a spindle unit extends perpendicularly through the case. The spindle unit includes a shank and a spindle which has a toothed portion formed to the outer periphery thereof. A depth detection unit is located beside the toothed portion. A driving unit is located at the rear end of the case and includes a motor and a belt which is connected between the motor and the shank. A feed unit includes a gear, a shaft and a feed handle. The shaft extends horizontally through the case and is perpendicular to the toothed portion. The feed handle is connected to the left end or the right end of the shaft of the feed unit so that right-handed or left-handed users can operate the feed handle. A control unit is electrically connected to the motor and the depth detection unit.

A rail drill drive train can include a common drive end between a single drive motor and a common gear. A speed train end can extend from the common gear to rotate the drill spindle. A feed train end can independently extend from the common gear to advance and retract the drill spindle. The speed train end can include a sprag gear so that, without unmeshing any gears, the drill spindle is not unnecessarily rotated in the reverse direction when the drive motor is reversed to retract the drill spindle. A rail drill control circuit and related sensors can enable automatic operation throughout the complete drilling cycle without any manual input from the user other than starting the cycle. Such a fully automatic drilling cycle can minimize overall cycle time to preserve battery life and can free the user to perform other tasks between drill moving and clamping operations.

A chuck for use with a rotary power tool having an output spindle. The chuck includes a base and an inner sleeve threadedly coupled to the base. The inner sleeve has a central aperture. A collet is disposed within the central aperture of the inner sleeve and configured to be engaged by a portion of the inner sleeve to be tightened or untightened. The chuck further includes an outer sleeve surrounding the inner sleeve, and a detent member disposed between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve. The detent member is coupled for co-rotation with the outer sleeve and configured to selectively transmit torque from the outer sleeve to the inner sleeve. When the collet is tightened, rotation of the outer sleeve causes axial displacement of the detent member relative to the inner sleeve as the outer sleeve and the detent member rotate relative to the inner sleeve.

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 single use integrated disposable rotational speed reduction assembly having a shaft assembly, a housing, an output assembly, and a plurality of planetary gears each having a plurality of gear teeth. The shaft assembly is configured to cause rotation of the planetary gears with a sun gear. The rotation of the planetary gears is configured to cause rotation of an output shaft, with a reduction of rotational speed relative to the rotation of the shaft assembly. One or more gear components or spacers can be configured to fail after a predetermined number of use cycles.

A facing head includes a fixed part, couplable with a head of a machine tool via an interface plate and a rotary part, wherein a compartment is placed internally to which drive means and measurement means are housed for driving and measuring a radial slide supported by the rotary part so as to close the compartment, and at least one electric collector for controlling the drive means and measurement means. A continuous gasket contacts the radial slide and a fluid collector supplies the compartment with pressurized air to seal the compartment. The fluid collector includes a rotary portion with first fluid routes, and a fixed portion integral with the fixed part of the facing head with second fixed fluid routes together supplying the rotary part with a coolant, supplying the compartment with pressurized air, and transporting the oil for locking the radial slide.

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 rail drill drive train can include a common drive end between a single drive motor and a common gear. A speed train end can extend from the common gear to rotate the drill spindle. A feed train end can independently extend from the common gear to advance and retract the drill spindle. The speed train end can include a sprag gear so that, without unmeshing any gears, the drill spindle is not unnecessarily rotated in the reverse direction when the drive motor is reversed to retract the drill spindle.

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.

A method to control a power tool, especially a core drill, including a motor as the drive for the power tool, a control unit, a power display, a transmission having at least a first gear and a second gear, a first sensor to detect the rotational speed of at least one component of the transmission and a second sensor to detect the rotational speed of the motor. The method includes the following steps: ascertaining a first rotational speed of the at least one component of the transmission when the transmission has been put into a gear, ascertaining a first rotational speed of the motor when the transmission has been put into a gear, ascertaining the selection of the gear on the basis of a first prescribed ratio of the first rotational speed of the at least one component of the transmission and of the first rotational speed of the motor on the basis of a look-up table, and setting the limit value of the power display on the basis of the look-up table as a function of the gear that has been selected. A power tool for purposes of using the method.
