Abstract: A rebar hole doweling cart to construct or repair sidewalks, driveways, roadways, curbs, floors and the like. The cart has a frame with wheels, an elongated upwardly extending riser with a handle, and a nose plate that pivotally supports a drill mounting assembly near the ground. The mounting assembly holds an electric hammer drill and its bit in an aimed direction. The cart is rolled forward to tap a hole in a concrete slab and place the bit in a set aimed direction. The cart handle is then pushed forward to rotate the nose plate down into gripping engagement with the ground to advance the drill bit forward to form the rebar hole in the slab. During this forward handle rotation, the drill mounting assembly simultaneously counter-rotates (pitch pivotal movement) relative to the nose plate to maintain the drill bit in its set aimed direction.

Abstract: A hand held drill leverage unit for supporting, positioning, and leveraging a drill. The leverage unit has a main lever arm pivotally supported by a fulcrum unit. A drill end of the lever arm supports the drill, while an opposing, longer, handle end of the lever allows manipulation of the lever arm to control the position of, and to leverage, the drill. A user typically grasps the drill handle in one hand, the handle end of the lever arm in the other. Pulling the handle end away from the workpiece forces a leg or foot member of the fulcrum unit against a rear side of the workpiece or of another support member, making the fulcrum unit substantially stationary relative to the workpiece, so that further pulling of the handle end forces the drill end toward the work piece. As the preferred leverage unit need not be fastened or fixed to the workpiece or other support member, the user may quickly and easily move the drill and leverage unit to multiple drilling locations.

Abstract: In order to facilitate and make more ergonomic the drilling of a multitude of holes in workpieces, particularly in the assembly of large scale components, such as an aircraft body, the power drill is docked to a support by an attachment which engages and locks onto a guide bushing or bore in the support. The attachment assures that the drill bit is precisely axially aligned with a hole to be drilled. The feed advance is performed by a leveraged action controlled by the operator. The leverage can be provided, for example by a Bowden pull cable. The attachment reduces the exertion to be made by the operator, thereby avoiding ergonomically unsatisfactory work positions.
