A BTA drilling quick-stop device (QSD) and a method, wherein the BTA drilling QSD includes a base. The base includes a hollow cavity. A side portion of the base has an opening communicating with the hollow cavity. The opening is closed by a through cover. A horizontally movable fixture is disposed in the hollow cavity. A stopper is disposed at a top portion of the base. A bottom portion of the stopper is disposed lower than a top portion of the fixture to stop the fixture from moving during processing. An elastic element is disposed between the through cover and a side portion of the fixture to push the fixture to move after processing.

This invention includes a drill guide (drill depth stop and alignment tool), canting base attachment, and self-aligning dowel jig attachment that allows users to drill holes to prescribed depths into flat work surfaces using various sizes of twist and auger bits while eliminating marring and reducing wood splintering. The canting base attachment allows users to drill holes to prescribed depths and at variable angles into flat surfaces and both large and small cylinders with no free ends using various kinds and sizes of drilling tools without marring. The dowel jig attachment allows users to drill dowel holes to prescribed depths in edges and faces of work pieces that are evenly spaced apart by numerous gauged distances and at infinitely adjustable distances from edges. This invention has drill press-like capabilities and can be used in the field and in shops.

A machine tool system includes a machine tool including a processor to process a workpiece with a tool, and a bed on which the processor is mounted, a transport apparatus including two, left and right, legs spaced apart from the bed to transport the workpiece and feed the workpiece to the processor or discharge the workpiece from the processor, and a plate that connects the bed to the legs and is elastically deformable. The plate is upright such that a plate surface is aligned with a front-rear direction, and a connection portion of the plate that connects with the bed and a connection portion of the plate that connects with the legs are displaced in a front-back direction.

The present disclosure relates to a portable drill guide that is useable to enable a user to more accurately use a portable drill to drill a substantially vertical hole or angled hole into a workpiece in a controlled straight line. The portable drill guide includes a base plate; a pivot assembly selectively moveable with the base plate; at least one guide column operably engaged with the at least one guide column; and a chuck carrier operably engaged with the at least one guide column and being linearly moveable relative to the base plate. The chuck carrier and the at least one guide column of the portable drill guide are pivot with the pivot assembly relative to the base plate. Additional assemblies and components may be operably engaged with the portable drill guide for assisting in drilling substantially vertical hole or angled hole into a workpiece in a controlled straight line.

A handheld powered pocket hole drilling system is provided. The system includes a base assembly having a plate. The plate has a drill bit opening extending through the plate. The system includes a drilling assembly and a drill bit connected to the drilling assembly. A drill guide assembly is operably connected to the base assembly and the drilling assembly. The drilling assembly is movable along the drill guide assembly to extend and retract the drill bit through the drill bit opening at an angle. An actuating assembly is operably connected to the drilling assembly. The actuating assembly is configured to move the drilling assembly and drill bit between a retracted position and an extended position. In some arrangements, the actuating assembly moves a drilling assembly and drill bit rearward and downward to the extended position and a handle of the actuating assembly is moved forward and downward.

A drill guide that includes associated components and various methods of use herein. The drill guide includes a first guide column and a second guide column provided on a base plate. The drill guide also includes a chuck carrier adapted to operatively receive a drill chuck of a portable drill. The chuck carrier is operably engaged with the first guide column and the second guide column, and the chuck carrier is linearly moveable along the first guide column and the second guide column between a return position and a plunging position relative to the base plate. The drill guide also includes a tapered portion defined in the first guide column. The drill guide also includes a depth stopper that is operably engaged with the first guide column, wherein the tapered portion enables self-tightening of the depth stopper about the first guide column.

Disclosed are systems and devices for controlling the closing of a door. A head unit is to be installed in a doorjamb, comprising a chamber filled at least in part with a shear thickening fluid. A piston is connected to a cap and configured to exert pressure against the shear thickening fluid in response to a force applied to the cap. The systems and devices provide an adjustable design that resists door slamming and aggressive closure, serving as a safety device as well as noise, damage and pet control around doors (preventing closure if desired). An install kit provides exact location, depth control and guide to place over the head unit to tap it into place with a hammer.
