  • Patent number: 6857830
    Abstract: A roof core-drilling apparatus and drilling guide adapted to be used in combination with a rotary drive means in which the mandrel portion of the roof core-cutter operates not only to mechanically connect the saw body to the drive means for cutting the core, but also as a plunger for ejecting the core from the saw body when the drilling operation is completed. The core cutting guide provides a stable platform for guiding the roof core cutter during operation. The saw teeth on the outer edge of the saw body are angled to cut through the work material in such a manner as to facilitate the ejection of the core material from the saw body after the roof coring operation is complete.
