  • Patent number: 11433449
    Abstract: To provide a drawing-out tool for sheet metal which is less in failure and excellent in the durability and has excellent handling property by evading generation of trouble in an electric system by shielding dust, metal dust, soil dust or the like from mingling in or attaching to the electric system. The drawing-out tool for sheet metal comprises a center shaft (22); a first operation means (20) provided with a bit (25) arranged to an apex part of the center shaft; a second operation means (30) for pulling-up the first operation means; and an energization mechanism (100) for supplying electric current to the bit are provided. The housing (10) for accommodating the illumination unit (70) and the illumination unit for illuminating a sheet metal surface accommodated in the housing are included.

  • Patent number: 9162315
    Abstract: An electrical conduction mechanism is provided to prevent dust or from adhering to the inside of an electrical-conduction portion main body, so that electrical conduction efficiency cannot be reduced. The electrical conduction mechanism comprises an electrical-conduction portion main body in the center of which a first through-hole to be inserted through by a shaft is formed and in which a second through-hole communicating with the first through-hole is formed in a direction perpendicular to a direction in which the first through-hole is formed. The electrical-conduction element is disposed in the second through-hole. The electrical-conduction element is configured to include an electrical-conduction chip abutting on the shaft, and a coil spring biasing the electrical-conduction chip toward the shaft, so that current is supplied to the shaft through the electrical-conduction chip to conduct electricity to the bit.

  • Patent number: 5943902
    Abstract: A sheet metal drawing equipment capable of providing a both thereof with strength sufficient to minimize deformation thereof during operation, to thereby increase durability thereof and stabilizing a gravity thereof to facilitate operation. The equipment includes a pair of legs each provided with surface contact sections adapted to be abuttedly contacted with a surface of a sheet metal, rails for slidably supporting the legs thereon, a slide frame member slidably supported on the rails, a pair of operation arms each pivotally supported at one end thereof on the slide frame members, a central shaft arranged so as to extend in a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the rails, inserted via the slide frame member and moved by operation of the operation arms, and connection arms each arranged in correspondence to each of the operation arms and pivotally connected at one end thereof to corresponding one of the operation arms and at the other end thereof to the central shaft.

  • Patent number: 5333486
    Abstract: A sheet metal drawing equipment capable of rapidly and positively carrying out sheet metal drawing without skill and effectively smoothing a surface of a sheet metal material. The equipment includes a first operation mechanism provided with at a distal end thereof with a bit weldable to a surface of a sheet metal material to be drawn, a second operation mechanism manually operated to pull up the first operation mechanism, and a leg structure for supporting the second operation mechanism. The second operation mechanism includes a support section for rotatably supporting the first operation mechanism.

  • Patent number: 4930335
    Abstract: Two embodiments of fulcrum apparatus useful for easy and efficient dent pulling during automobile body repairing are provided in the invention. The apparatus works efficiently in most any position and comprises a first embodiment having dual levering arm and dual pivotal feet and a second embodiment having a single levering arm and a single foot. Both embodiments operate by pulling on a centrally aligned fixture affixed with a hook. The hook is designed for hooking attachment to a pull rod. The pull rod is passed through a series of aligned washers which are welded in the dent area of a damage auto body. When manual pull is applied to either the dual levers on the first embodiment or the single lever on the second embodiment, a controlled force is applied to the aligned washers realigning the dented area with the original surface of the damaged car body. Padded pivotal feet allows use of the apparatus in door areas and on other irregular car body surfaces.

  • Patent number: 4914942
    Abstract: A one piece improved weld washer designed for weldable attachment to dents and crevices during auto body repair work. The improved weld washer is comprised of an apertured elongated oval principal plate member in washer-like form affixed at one smaller curved end with a rectangular tab-like arm member useful for welding to dents in a car body. For best results, the tab-like arm member has a lengthwise helical bend. This helical bend positions the distal end of the tab-like arm member in a perpendicular plane to that of the principal plate member. The distal ends of the tab-like arm members can be welded into the lengthwise crevice or dent of the car body while the apertures in the principal plate members are aligned allowing simultaneous passage of one pulling rod. The pulling rod engages the lowest improved weld washer first, pulling all in sequence, until all are aligned equally and the dent removed. The improved weld washers are then easily removed from the welds by a rotational twist.
