Patents by Inventor Daniele VILLA

Daniele VILLA has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11401676
    Abstract: A drilling machine includes a main body, a mast to mount a drilling tool, a kinematic mechanism movably constraining the mast to the main body while allowing mutual rotation. The kinematic mechanism includes an elongated component hinged at two ends. When the drilling machine is in a drilling configuration, the elongated component performs a structural function to constrain the mast to the main body. An assembling and moving equipment includes a moving element movably mounted to the drilling machine and supporting the elongated component. A moving actuator controls the relative position between the moving element and a mounting portion of the drilling machine. When the drilling machine is in an assembling configuration, one end of the elongated component is released and the moving element acts upon the elongated component. Moving the moving element relative to the mounting portion of the drilling machine causes rotation of the elongated component.

  • Patent number: 11041282
    Abstract: An excavation tool for making ground excavations for panels and diaphragms includes at least one rotary excavation drum. At least one frame is adapted to support the excavation drum. At least one pump is adapted for suction of an excavation fluid. A brushless electric motor is adapted to put in rotation the at least one excavation drum. At least one mechanical reducer is operationally connected to the electric motor and the at least one excavation drum. The electric motor is installed in the frame and coaxial to the at least one excavation drum. The at least one mechanical reducer is coaxial to the electric motor and the at least one excavation drum. The at least one mechanical reducer is adapted to transfer rotary motion from the electric motor to the at least one excavation drum.
