  • Patent number: 7063606
    Abstract: A portable power tool, in particular an angle grinder (10), includes a longitudinal housing (12) for accommodating a motor for driving a driven shaft (16) that is outwardly bent relative to the housing (12), the driven shaft being rotatably supported in a gearbox casing (14) and extending out of it with a free end that is provided to accommodate a sanding body. A protective cover (43) encompassing the sanding body is capable of being fastened on the gearbox casing (14) such that its rotation can be adjusted, and the rotational position of which is lockable using a notch lever (30). The device is made safer to operate and more cost effective to manufacture by the fact that the notch lever (30) is positioned transversely to the longitudinal axis of the angle grinder (10) and is pivotable around an axis (34) positioned substantially parallel to the housing (12).

  • Patent number: 5893688
    Abstract: A masonry drill bit having an improved insert geometry, insert orientation, and interface clearance for providing improved drill speed and penetration rate. The drill bit is adapted for use in drilling masonry or other hard, brittle material. The drill bit has an axially elongated body with a leading front end portion and a rear end portion. The rear end portion is adapted to be held by a tool holder. The body has at least one spiral groove cast in its exterior surface substantially along its length. The insert is embedded in the leading end of the body, extending generally diametrically across the leading end of the body, and centered about a latitudinal plane of the insert. The geometric design of the insert, the orientation of the insert relative to the drill bit, and the interface clearance between the insert and the grooves, reduces friction and heat; resists wear, fractures, and abrasive actions of the chips; increases design life of the elements; and enhances debris elimination.
