Abstract: The invention relates to a method of and apparatus for making an undercut in a drilled hole in a fixed base, such as concrete, masonry or the like. The shank of a milling cutter is supported and held eccentrically in the drill hole by means of a supporting sleeve which can be extended into the drill hole when the milling cutter is running. The supporting sleeve has an outside diameter slightly less than the diameter of the cylindrical drill hole so as to fit therein, and is formed with a receptacle groove extending longitudinally of the sleeve and opening at the periphery of the sleeve. The shank of the milling cutter is positioned in the groove, the axis of which is parallel to but radially outwardly spaced from the coaxial axes of the drill hole and sleeve. Rotation of the sleeve can be by a hand wheel interconnected to the sleeve, with the milling cutter rotating with the sleeve to form the undercut.

The method comprehends: (a) supporting a rotary driven spindle assembly of sufficient length to extend through the axial extent of the cavity and reach the valve seat, the spindle carrying a cutting tool at its extremity, the support being in a nonrotatable housing effective to fit closely to the interior of the cavity (within a tolerance of 0.

Abstract: A pair of track members is fastened to a framework of a black box forwardly of each mother board connector of an array thereof mounted on the mother board of the black box. The track members extend forwardly in parallel from end flanges of the connector to leading ends fastened to the black box framework at the LRM-receiving aperture, so that an LRM placed between the pair of tracks is movable to the mother board connector for mating of the LRM connector therewith. The trailing ends of the track members extend through precisely located holes through end flanges of the mother board connector and through the mother board after which the end portions are fastened to frame members behind the mother board. The track members can be hollow enabling fluid to be circulated therethrough to dissipate heat from the LRM. The track members can constitute the means to fasten the mother board connector to the mother board, and also the mother board to the framework of the black box.

Abstract: Clutching device particularly adapted for use in tapping attachments. The clutch is of the type having axial aligned driving and driven elements. The invention is illustrated in a reversible tapping attachment. In a preferred form the driving element is in the form of a sleeve having axial splines. The driven element has axial grooves. A ball retainer with angularly spaced balls provides for drive between the drive element and the driven element, the balls being engageable with the axial splines and with the axial grooves in the driven element. The improvement resides in that the axial grooves are not of the same width as the diameter of the balls but are of a width greater than the diameter of the balls, the width being preferably twice the diameter of the balls. Improved operation is realized in clutching and declutching and in the transfer through a neutral zone from direct drive to reverse drive. In the preferred embodiment the tapping attachment is of the free-axial float type.
