Abstract: One or more systems and/or methods are disclosed for a nozzle with wire connection to a hose, which may allow wired communication between the nozzle and a distant control center. A hose connector with one or more locating pins may be used for easy alignment and quick establishment of electrical connection between the nozzle and the hose. The nozzle may comprise a swiveling joint configured to fully swivel while maintaining electrical connection between the hose connector and an electronic housing. A slip ring assembly may be used in the swiveling joint to maintain the electrical connection.

Abstract: A cutting tool insert having a specialized spur point geometry at the center of the insert. The insert comprises a spur point cutting portion and a blade cutting portion wherein the spur point provides stability by providing a spot and allowing a flexible workpiece to partially spring back when the spur breaks through. The spur point insert facilitates the cutting of relatively thinner workpieces and workpieces requiring the tool to have a longer reach to the hole, while minimizing the burr resulting from the drilling operation.
