Abstract: A slider 16 having a cutting insert 5A is slidably mounted in a groove 11 formed along the generatrix dimension of a substantially conical tool body 1. Serrations 12 and 16a, which are brought into close contact with each other for engagement, are formed on one side surface 11a of the groove 11 and on one side surface of the slide 16 opposite thereto. A wedge member 13 is detachably mounted between the other side surface 11b of the groove 11 and the slider 16 and is pressed against the side surface 11a so as to cause the serrations 12 and 16 to be engaged with each other. No special shaping accuracy is needed for the groove 11 or the slider 16 since any shaping error in these members can be absorbed so that a sufficient mounting accuracy is ensured for the slider 16. Thus, it is possible to reduce the requisite labor, etc. for the shaping of these members while maintaining the requisite positional accuracy for the cutting insert 5A.

Abstract: A hammer-drill is adapted for drilling a hole in masonry and subsequently driving a threaded masonry fastener therein. The hammer-drill has a driving output shaft nested concentrically within a driving output sleeve. The shaft and sleeve both extend forwardly of the tool housing, and both are driven continuously by respective gearing in the tool.

The tubular member encloses the masonry drill bit, which is continually rotated, and the drill bit need not be removed from the tool to seat the fastener. The tubular member has a forward portion provided with a socket for the head of the masonry fastener.

Abstract: A boring tool assembly performs both the rough and finish cutting operations upon a metal work piece without power activation or manual adjustments of the tool units between the cutting strokes. The assembly includes a boring bar having a pair of fixed, diametrically opposed rough cut tool units, and a pair of retractable finish tool units diametrically opposed to each other also. The tool units are automatically operative in response to either the rough cut or the finish cut of the boring tool assembly. Spring biased plungers normally pivot the finish cutting units toward their cutting positions. During the initial or rough cutting operation, forces act upon the heel of the finish tools causing retraction from the cutting position. This is possible due to the cutting edge configuration and angle of orientation of the tools, the positioning of the tools on the trailing side of the boring bar centerline, and the direction of advancement of the boring bar.
