The connecting rod is disposed on the large diameter section and is opposite to the small diameter section. The reinforcing piece is connected to the adapter and has an internal annular face disposed on the reinforcing piece and securely mounted around the connecting rod of the adapter and an external annular face. The wheel body is round, is coaxial with the adapter, and is mounted around the large diameter section of the adapter and the reinforcing piece.
The present invention relates to a glue-removing wheel assembly, and more particularly relates to a glue-removing wheel assembly and its adapter that may be applied on tool heads of different hand tools to improve the practicality of the glue-removing wheel assembly.
2. Description of Related ArtIn general, when the automobile is undergoing a panel-beating process, multiple covering panels are disposed on positions of the automobile that are not to be colored by glue before a painting process. After the painting process, the covering panels are removed from the automobile, and residual glue is left on the automobile by the glue before the painting process. At this time, a glue-removing wheel is applied with an adapter and a collet of a rotating tool to rotate and rub against a surface of the automobile to remove the residual glue and to avoid scratching the surface of the automobile.
However, a conventional glue-removing wheel is a rubber wheel, and has a connecting rod disposed on a center of the conventional glue-removing wheel. An end of the connecting rod axially extends out of a surface of the conventional glue-removing wheel, and a thread is disposed on the end of the connecting rod. With reference to
Additionally, when the conventional glue-removing wheel is needed to use with the adapter 60, the adapter 60 may not be available or are not carried by the user, and this is also inconvenient in use. Furthermore, the adapter 60 may easily be lost when the adapter 60 is carried or stored alone, and this needs improvement.
To overcome the shortcomings, the present invention provides a glue-removing wheel assembly and its adapter to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned problems.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe main objective of the present invention is to provide an adapter of a glue-removing wheel assembly to apply with collets of different kinds of rotating tools.
The adapter of a glue-removing wheel assembly in accordance with the present invention is a rod body and has two ends, a large diameter section, and a small diameter section. The large diameter section is disposed on one of the two ends of the adapter and has an end face and a mounting segment axially formed through the end face of the large diameter section. The small diameter section is disposed on the other one of the two ends of the adapter, is opposite to the end face of the large diameter section, is connected to the large diameter section, and has a cross section and a necked segment. The cross section is hexagonal. The necked segment is disposed on an external surface of the small diameter section at a middle of the small diameter section.
The main objective of the present invention is to provide a glue-removing wheel assembly that may be applied on tool heads of different hand tools to improve the practicality of the glue-removing wheel assembly.
The glue-removing wheel assembly in accordance with the present invention has an adapter, a reinforcing piece, and a wheel body. The adapter has a large diameter section, a small diameter section, and a connecting rod. The small diameter section is connected with the large diameter section and has a cross section being hexagonal and a necked segment disposed on an external surface of the small diameter section. The connecting rod is disposed on the large diameter section and is opposite to the small diameter section. The reinforcing piece is connected to the adapter and has an internal annular face disposed on the reinforcing piece and securely mounted around the connecting rod of the adapter and an external annular face. The wheel body is round, is coaxial with the adapter, and is mounted around the large diameter section of the adapter and the reinforcing piece.
Other objects, advantages and novel features of the invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
With reference to
The large diameter section 12 has an end face, an external surface, a mounting segment 122, and a holding segment 124. The end face of the large diameter section 12 is disposed opposite to the small diameter section 14. The mounting segment 122 is axially formed through the end face of the large diameter section 12 and may be a threaded hole. The holding segment 124 may be flat for users to hold and for exerting a rotating force, and is disposed on the external surface of the large diameter section 12.
The small diameter section 14 is connected to the large diameter section 12, is disposed on the adapter 10 opposite to the end face of the large diameter section 12, and has a cross section, an external surface, a middle, and a necked segment 142. The cross section of the small diameter section 14 is hexagonal. The necked segment 142 is disposed on the external surface of the small diameter section 14 at the middle of the small diameter section 14.
