    摘要: A device for securely clamping a drill motor to a drill plate in order to drill precisely positioned holes in a workpiece includes an annular mandrel and annular collet concentrically disposed about the cutting element. A first end of the collet includes a plurality of longitudinally extending fingers while the mandrel has a tapered end portion having a larger external diameter than the center cylindrical portion of the mandrel. A pneumatically-actuated piston is also coaxially disposed about the cutting element to extend and retract the mandrel and the collet. Once extended, the longitudinally extending fingers of the collet overlie the center cylindrical portion of the mandrel. Thus, the clamping device may be inserted through an aperture defined in a drill plate. Following its retraction, the longitudinally extending fingers of the collet overlie the tapered end of the mandrel and are correspondingly expanded. The expanded fingers hook behind the periphery of the aperture defined in the drill plate and securely clamps the drill motor to the drill plate.

A double-acting cylinder, which has a piston and a rod, and is fixedly coupled to the coupling structure. A two-position valve assembly is configured for directing a pressurized fluid to the double-acting cylinder. When the two-position valve assembly is in a first position is directs a fluid to a first side of the piston moving the piston to a first position. When the two-position valve assembly is in the second position it directs the pressurized fluid to a second side of the piston to move the piston to a second position. An arm is coupled to the piston. A control mechanism having a housing and a control rod, wherein the control rod is movable within the housing of the control mechanism between an extended position and a retracted position. The control mechanism has a biasing device for biasing the control rod toward the extended position, the control rod being configured to contact the arm to resist movement of the piston toward the second position to thereby control a rate by which the piston is advanced toward the second position. The assembly may also include a four-way two position air piloted valve to control the flow of a fluid to the arm.

    摘要: An axial feed apparatus having an adjustable feed stop is provided. The axial feed apparatus generally comprises a power feed module having an adjustable stop mechanism engaged therewith, wherein the adjustable stop mechanism may comprise a spindle threadedly engaging the power feed module. An adjustable depth-controlling device is further included intermediate the spindle and the power feed module, which uses a series of calibrated graduations in communication with the spindle such that a rotational change in the engagement of the graduations moves the spindle by a predetermined axial distance and thereby adjust the position of the feed stop for the power feed module. Such a power feed module may be combined with a drill motor to produce a device capable of drilling/countersinking holes in a workpiece. A drilling/countersinking device is thus facilitated that is capable of providing a readily adjustable feed stop for positively controlling the depth of the drilled/countersunk hole in a consistent, accurate, and repeatable manner. An associated method is also provided.

    摘要: A clamping device includes a housing, removably connected to a drill motor, which has a first end portion adapted to be received within an aperture defined in a drill plate. The first end portion of the housing also defines a number of openings in which respective ones of a plurality of ball bearings are disposed. The clamping device also includes means for forcing each ball bearing outwardly within a respective opening defined in the first end portion of the housing such that portions of the ball bearings are extended outwardly beyond the housing and are urged against the drill plate. Thus, the drill motor can be securely clamped to the drill plate. The clamping device can also include a mandrel defining an internal bore through which the cutting element extends. The mandrel typically has an exterior surface in which a plurality of recesses are defined. Each recess can be aligned with a respective opening defined in the housing and can be adapted to receive a respective ball bearing. Each recess can also include an inclined surface extending from a first end outwardly to a second end such that by urging a respective ball bearing outwardly along the inclined surface from the first end to the second end, the ball bearing is extended outwardly beyond the housing so as to secure the clamping device and, in turn, the drill motor to the drill plate during drilling operations.

    摘要: An apparatus having a controllable dwell for drilling and or countersinking a hole in a workpiece is provided which generally comprises a feed mechanism, a retraction mechanism, and a dwell mechanism. The feed mechanism is configured to feed a spindle from a starting position to a predetermined feed limit during a feed cycle. The retraction mechanism is configured to retract the spindle from the feed limit to the starting position to complete the feed cycle. The dwell mechanism is in communication with the retraction mechanism and comprises a mechanical bias member that stores energy during at least a portion of the feed cycle, wherein the mechanical bias member releases at least a portion of the energy once the spindle reaches the feed limit. The retraction mechanism is only actuated once the spindle reaches the feed limit and the mechanical bias member releases at least a portion of the energy. A predetermined dwell period is thereby provided between the spindle reaching the feed limit and the retraction mechanism being actuated. An associated method is also provided.
