BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates generally to a rotary hole saw device, and more particularly to an innovative fixed-type rotary cutter.

2. Description of Related Art Including Information Disclosed Under 37 CFR 1.97 and 37 CFR 1.98

The commercially available rotary hole saw is used for drilling circular holes in plates of wood or metal building materials, e.g. drilling the mounting hole for a flaring lock in a door sheet, or drilling the mounting hole for a lamp holder in the ceiling.

There are two kinds of rotary hole saws on the market. One is the hole saw. The hole saw comprises a base, an auger core and a circular saw blade. The auger core is located in the bottom of the base, and the circular saw blade is installed in the preset position of the base, so as to form a fixed pattern. The other one is the scale rod type. The scale rod type comprises abase, a scale rod, an auger core and a cutter blade. The auger core is located in the bottom of the base, and the scale rod laterally penetrates the preset position of the base, it is positioned by screw locking on the fixing component of base, and the scale rod has graduations. The two ends of scale rod fix the cutter blade, so as to form a fixed pattern. In addition, the movable block can be mounted on both ends of scale rod, and the cutter blade is mounted in the bottom of the movable block, so as to form an adjustable pattern.

However, the known structure still has the following problems and defects in practice. For example, in terms of the fixed pattern, one single size was mostly used in the past, there were so many sizes of circular hole to be drilled, so multiple sets of circular saw blade or scale rod should be prepared, and then the operators configured correct circular saw blade or scale rod size according to the design size on site, the operators had to carry a lot of heavy tools with them. Therefore, the adjustable rotary hole saw was designed. The adjustable rotary hole saw has graduations on the scale rod, and the operator adjusts the blade distance on the scale rod according to the size in the design drawings when drilling a circular hole. However, the operator has to adjust the size accurately to avoid errors, and after times of adjustment, the wear may result in incorrect positioning. To sum up, the construction time will be too long or the drilling will fail.

Thus, to overcome the aforementioned problems of the prior art, it would be an advancement in the art to provide an improved structure that can significantly improve the efficacy.

Therefore, the inventor has provided the present invention of practicability after deliberate design and evaluation based on years of experience in the production, development and design of related products.

As shown in FIG. 1-FIG. 3, the preferred embodiment of the fixed-type rotary cutter of the present invention comprises a screw module 10, provided with abase 12 and a screw 13 along an axis 11, the base 12 has a basal portion 121 and a connecting portion 122 in the lower end of the basal portion 121, wherein the connecting portion 122 is provided for connecting a power tool, the screw 13 has an assembling end 131, an insertion end 133 and a stem 132 between the assembling end 131 and insertion end 133; a fixed-type rotary cutter module 20, comprising a cross bar 21 and two fixed cutters 22, wherein the cross bar 21 is provided with a central axial hole 211, the central axial hole 211 penetrates the center point of the cross bar 21 along the axis 11, a compression face 212 is formed around the central axial hole 211, the two fixed cutters 22 are fixed to the two ends of the cross bar 21 respectively, and the saw cutting points of the two fixed cutters 22 are equidistant from the center point of the central axial hole 211, and the central axial hole 211 is fitted over the stem 132 of the screw 13; a driving and locking module 30, comprising a driving holder 31 and a locking holder 32, the driving holder 31 is integrated with the upper end of basal portion 121 of the base 12, the driving holder 31 comprises a clamping slot 311 and an axial hole 312, wherein the clamping slot 311 defines an opening end 313 and two driving walls 314, the opening end 313 is oriented far from the connecting portion 122, the axial hole 312 is located in one end of the driving holder 31 and interconnected to the clamping slot 311, and the axial hole 312 is provided for assembling the insertion end 133 of the screw 13, so that the opening end 313 of the clamping slot 311 is oriented far from the connecting portion 122. The locking holder 32 is a detachable component, provided with a screw insertion portion 321, an auger core insertion portion 322, a fixing hole 323 and an assembly/disassembly portion 325 on the external surface, wherein the screw insertion portion 321 is screwed on the assembling end 131 of the screw 13, the auger core insertion portion 322 is positioned by an auger core 40, the fixing hole 323 fixes the auger core 40 by screw locking of a screw 50, the assembly/disassembly portion 325 is assembled or disassembled by a tool. Wherein the cross bar 21 of the fixed-type rotary cutter module 20 is fitted over the stem 132 of the screw 13, the cross bar 21 of the fixed-type rotary cutter module 20 is embedded in the clamping slot 311 of the driving holder 31, so that the two driving walls 314 clamp and drive the corresponding stem 132 of the cross bar 21. The locking holder 32 has a pressing face 327 on the outer end face of the screw insertion portion 321, and the screw insertion portion 321 is screwed on the screw 13, so as to generate an axial locking action on the cross bar 21. The pressing face 327 of the locking holder 32 is assembled by a spacer 60, the spacer 60 is thermoplastic (POM), and there is a hole 61 in the center. The hole 61 allows the screw 13 to go through. A circumferential wall 62 protrudes upward from the circumference of the spacer 60. There is a ring lug 63 in the circumferential wall. The ring lug 63 is stuck in the ring groove 328 of the assembly/disassembly portion 325. As stated above, the pressing face 327 of the locking holder 32 is assembled by the spacer 60, so that the pressing face 327 of the locking holder 32 is unlikely to slip off when pressing the compression face 212 formed around the central axial hole 211 of the cross bar 21.

A ring groove 328 is provided in the external surface of the assembly/disassembly portion 325. The ring groove 328 is a noncircular groove face. The assembly/disassembly portion 325 is a noncircular rod (as shown in FIG. 1 to 3) or a circular rod (as shown in FIG. 4). As stated above, when the assembly/disassembly portion 325 is a circular rod, the assembly/disassembly portion 325 is provided with a ring groove 328 of noncircular groove face, the ring groove 328 can be disassembled or assembled by a tool (e.g. a spanner). When the assembly/disassembly portion 325 is a noncircular rod, the assembly/disassembly portion 325 can be disassembled or assembled by a tool (e.g. spanner, sleeve).

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, the height of the cross bar 21 is equal to or larger than the height of the opening end 313 of the driving holder 31. As stated above, the pressing face 327 on the outer end face of the screw insertion portion 321 presses the compression face 212 formed around the central axial hole 211 of the cross bar 21, so that the cross bar 21 is unlikely to shake along the axis 11, and the stability of cross bar 21 is enhanced greatly.
