  • Publication number: 20090111363
    Abstract: A belt sanding attachment tool suitable for use with a driver such as a bench drill, the belt sanding attachment tool being a complete unit and removable from the driver, and suitable for work operations such as grinding, polishing, sanding, finishing and the like. The belt sanding attachment tool has a rotating spindle providing a dual function of firstly providing the primary support of the whole belt sanding attachment tool to the driver, and secondly, providing rotary motion to a driving drum spaced from a second rotatable idler drum to direct and move an endless belt between the two drums. An outward biasing means is provided by way of a spring within a telescopic arm to keep the endless belt in tension.

  • Publication number: 20090093204
    Abstract: A tool device suitable for use with a driver, the tool assembly being suitable for work operations such as grinding, polishing, sanding, finishing and the like, the tool device providing a disk shape of rigid or pliable material and a central driving spindle connectable to the driver, the disk being provided with a plurality of radial grooves and tendons therein to capture and present abrasive/polishing elements to a work piece, such radial tendons being permanently attached at one end but releasable from the other end for the purpose of loading and unloading the abrasive/polishing elements. The abrasive/polishing elements are prepared in such a way so as when presented to the work-piece a cushioning/cooling effect is achieved via the generous airflow through and around the elements.

  • Publication number: 20090093203
    Abstract: A flail sanding tool suitable for use with a driver such as a portable drill or bench drill, the flail sanding tool assembly being suitable for work operations such as grinding, polishing, sanding, finishing and the like. The flail sanding tool provides a central shaft with a disk fixed at each end and a drive spindle at one end. The flail sanding tool provides a plurality of vertical tendons at the perimeter to capture and present abrasive/polishing elements to a work piece, such vertical tendons being permanently attached to the disk at one end but releasable from suitably shaped slots in the disk at the other end, for the purpose of loading and unloading the abrasive/polishing elements. Each vertical tendon is shaped in a way to provide an outward bias to ensure positive location when engaged in a retaining slot.
