Abstract: A vacuum attachment device for a nutplate drill motor having a footpiece and at least one cutting tool. The vacuum attachment device comprises a body portion and a nozzle portion. The body portion has a central aperture which engages the footpiece and an air chamber which extends through the body portion and intersects the central aperture to form a vacuum path. The nozzle portion is coupled to the body portion and is in fluid connection with the air chamber. The nozzle portion is coupled to a source of vacuum pressure. During the operation of the nutplate drill motor, dust and chips that are generated by the cutting tool are drawn by the source of vacuum pressure into the air chamber and through the nozzle portion.

Abstract: A vacuum attachment device (10) contains a drill attachment portion (30) and a vacuum mounting portion (50). The drill attachment portion (30) is further composed of a longitudinally truncated cylinder section (32) and a lower funnel section (42). The cylinder section (32) has first and second snap-on arms (34) and (36) and a rear cylinder aperture (40). The lower funnel section (42) has a lower funnel connection aperture (44) which connects to the cylinder section (32) at the rear aperture (40). The vacuum mounting portion (50) contains a hose attachment section (52) and an upper funnel section (54). A vacuum mounting portion bonding surface (56) connects the vacuum mounting portion (50) to the drill attachment portion bonding surface (46) of the drill attachment portion (30).
