  • Patent number: 6375396
    Abstract: A rotary cutting tool has an axially moveable drill pilot supported in the forward end of an arbor. A first set screw connects the arbor to an annular hole cutter. A second set screw connects the arbor to the drill pilot. The drill pilot has an integral collar that engages the inner end of the hole cutter to prevent the drill pilot from being ejected from the arbor in the event that the second set screw is disengaged from the drill pilot.

  • Patent number: 5415503
    Abstract: A portable electromagnetic drilling machine which is provided with an enclosed motor power control cord that connects the machine electrical control panel to a machine electric drive motor for a cutting tool spindle. The provision of an enclosed electric motor power control cord eliminates any wrongful or inadvertent lifting of the machine by said cord, and insures the lifting and carrying of the machine will be carried out by a handle on the machine housing.

  • Patent number: 5281060
    Abstract: An annular hole cutter including a cylindrical body provided with a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart cutter teeth, including a first group of cutter teeth that have alternate radial inner cutting edges and a second group of cutter teeth that have alternate radial outer cutting edges that are staggered circumferentially rearwardly from the alternate radial inner cutting edges of the first group of cutter teeth. The cutting edges on the cutter teeth of both groups of cutter teeth each have a leading point, and the leading point of the cutting edges on one of said groups of cutter teeth extends downward longitudinally beyond the leading point of the cutting edges on the other of said groups of cutter teeth.

  • Patent number: 5029879
    Abstract: An improved seal at the junction of a pipe or tube to an opening formed in a flat wall or in the wall of a cylindrical or rounded container, including axially tapered exterior and interior peripheral surfaces. The tapers of such surfaces being different one from the other and being of such a degree that, when the seal is inserted into the opening in the receiving member and the pipe is inserted therethrough, the material from which such seal is fabricated is forced to bulge around the periphery of the opening, thereby securing the pipe in the opening and perfecting the seal therebetween.

  • Patent number: 4596499
    Abstract: An annular hole cutter having a shank and an integral cylindrical body provided with a plurality of axially extended cutting teeth which each has an inner cutting edge and an outer cutting edge. The inner and outer cutting edges are equal in radial width and their inner ends meet in a common leading cutter point. The outer and inner cutting edges on each cutting teeth share a substantially mutual radial face.

  • Patent number: 4385853
    Abstract: An arbor for a rotary cutting tool which includes an elongated cylindrical shank that has an axial bore formed therethrough. The upper end of the shank is adapted to be attached to the drive spindle of an electric motor. The arbor shaft is slidably mounted in a carrier sleeve which is rotatable with the arbor shank which is retained against axial movement by a mounting means. An annular cutter is attached to the lower end of the arbor shank and a pilot ejector member is slidably mounted therein. The pilot ejector member is retained in the normal at rest position by a spring which has its upper end mounted in a bore in a piston that is attached to the carrier sleeve. The lower end of the spring engages a plunger member which maintains the pilot ejector member in its initial and other operative positions.

  • Patent number: 3979099
    Abstract: A pedestal for a vehicle seat in which a vertically positioned post is mounted on a base and suppports a horizontally rotatable platform pivotally connected to the upper part of the post. A means is provided for locking the seat in an angular position on the vertical axis of the post, and a latch means is preferably provided for centrally locating the seat in its forward position. The locking means includes a handle with a horizontal shaft extending inwardly on the platform for operating a lever to apply pressure to the platform and a plate at the upper end of the post to hold the platform firmly in an angularly adjusted position.
