Publication number: 20260183848Abstract: A masonry drill (10), including a shaft section (12), on which a shank section (16) for connection to a tool fitting of a power drill is formed at one end, and a drill head (18) for work on a substrate is formed at the other end. The drill head (18) has at least one blade (20) having at its outer end a projection (22) which points away from the blade (20) tangentially to the longitudinal axis (L). The masonry drill (10) has a high removal capacity and a low risk of jamming.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2023Publication date: July 2, 2026Inventor: Markus MEIERHOFER

Patent number: 8225889Abstract: A drill head extending along a drill axis made of hard metal for rock drills is disclosed. The drill head features at least one major cutting edge and at least one minor cutting edge, where the major cutting edge extends from a first radially inner end to a first radial outer end which lies on a first diameter and where the minor cutting edge extends from a second radially inner end to a second radially outer end which lies on a second diameter that is smaller than the first diameter. A first enveloping surface defined by the minor cutting edge projects completely axially over a second enveloping surface defined by the major cutting edge.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2009Date of Patent: July 24, 2012Assignee: Hilti AktiengesellschaftInventors: Christoph Wetter, Roland Foser, Jens Schneider, Markus Meierhofer

Patent number: 7225890Abstract: An auxiliary cutting plate (10) for a multi-cutting plate drill bit (2) has a body (44) for fixing into a slot in the drill bit (2) and a profiled tip (46). The body (44) has a central longitudinal axis and the profiled tip (46) protrudes from one end of the body (44). The profiled tip (46) has a cutting edge (62) defined by a transition between a rake face (64) and a relief face (66). The rake face (64) and the relief face (66) each slope axially rearward from opposite sides of the cutting edge (62). The angle of inclination ? of at least a portion of the rake face (64), measured from a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, decreases with increasing distance from the cutting edge (62).Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2004Date of Patent: June 5, 2007Assignee: Black & Decker Inc.Inventors: Markus Meierhofer, Rainer Eggers

Patent number: 7137461Abstract: A masonry or rock drilling tool suitable for use with a rotary hammer has a drilling head (4, 104) at a forward end of the tool. A forwardly extending cutting plate (6, 106) is fitted or formed on the drilling head (4, 104). First and second opposing axially extending channels (36, 38, 136, 138) are formed on the circumferential periphery of the drilling head. The tool has a clamping shank (2, 102) at a rearward end of the tool suitable for fitment within a tool holder of a rotary hammer. An intermediate helical conveying portion (10, 110) extends between the drilling head and the clamping shank. The intermediate helical conveying portion has at least four helically extending flutes (14a–d, 114a–d) separated by corresponding helically extending webs (12a–d, 112a–d). The first of the axially extending channels extend axially rearwardly from a forward facing face of the drilling head into two of the four flutes.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2003Date of Patent: November 21, 2006Assignee: Black & Decker, Inc.Inventor: Markus Meierhofer
