Abstract

Abstract A chuck assembly and deep hole tool therewith, the chuck comprising a head, a shank and a centrally aligned bore for supporting the tool. A pair of complementary plugs are mounted in the head of the chuck in a bore diametrically extending therethrough. A dowel pin is disposed in the head offset to its axis, and attaches the first plug thereto. An allen screw, exposed to the peripheral exterior of the chuck assembly, extends through the second plug into the first plug, generally at right angles to the line of the dowel pin, whereby the second plug is drawn towards the first plug upon tightening said screw and thereby securely seats both plugs to within the head of the chuck. Corresponding grooves in the central faces of the plugs are provided for engaging the shank of the tool tightly held by such chuck assembly. The tool itself comprises a cutting tip brazed to an elongated shank, a second shank integrally formed upon the first and having a greater diameter thereover, and a third shank integrally formed upon the second shank and having a greater diameter therefrom. A pair of O-rings are spacedly mounted in their respectively annular grooves about the periphery of the third shank whereby upon insertion of the third shank in a spindle mounted in a stock of a tooling machine, seepage of coolant and lubricating oil about the tool''s shank is prevented and all such oil flows within the tube''s bore to the cutting tip itself.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 107 words
A chuck assembly for holding a tool for drilling a hole in a metallic workpiece, said chuck assembly comprising: a head, a shaft mounted on said head, and an axially aligned bore throughout said head and shaft; a pair of complementary plugs disposed in a diametrically formed bore in said head and having corresponding grooves facing each other and disposed in general alignment with said aligned bore; means for drawing together said plugs for securing the tool to said chuck assembly; means for attaching at least one of said plugs to said head; and whereby the tool is held in the axially aligned bore by the plugs.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 107 words
A chuck assembly for holding a tool for drilling a hole in a metallic workpiece, said chuck assembly comprising: a head, a shaft mounted on said head, and an axially aligned bore throughout said head and shaft; a pair of complementary plugs disposed in a diametrically formed bore in said head and having corresponding grooves facing each other and disposed in general alignment with said aligned bore; means for drawing together said plugs for securing the tool to said chuck assembly; means for attaching at least one of said plugs to said head; and whereby the tool is held in the axially aligned bore by the plugs.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 40 words
The combination of claim 1 in which said attaching means is a dowel pin mounted in a bore in said head and generally parallel to said aligned bore and passing through a corresponding bore in said one of said plugs.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
The combination of claim 1 in which said drawing means comprises screw-threaded means connecting together said plugs.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 53 words
The combination of claim 1 in which said attaching means is a dowel pin mounted in a bore in said head and generally parallel to said aligned bore and passing through a corresponding bore in said one of said plugs, and in which said drawing means comprises screw-threaded means connecting together said plugs.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 97 words
A chuck assembly comprising: a head; a shaft mounted on said head; a centrally aligned bore throughout said head and shaft; a pair of complementary plugs disposed in a diametrically formed bore in said head; means mounted in the central faces of said plugs and in alignment with said aligned bore for securely grasping a shank or the like of a tool; means for attacHing at least one of said plugs in a stationary position to said head; and means for drawing together said plugs whereby such shank or the like is held by said grasping means.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 97 words
A chuck assembly comprising: a head; a shaft mounted on said head; a centrally aligned bore throughout said head and shaft; a pair of complementary plugs disposed in a diametrically formed bore in said head; means mounted in the central faces of said plugs and in alignment with said aligned bore for securely grasping a shank or the like of a tool; means for attacHing at least one of said plugs in a stationary position to said head; and means for drawing together said plugs whereby such shank or the like is held by said grasping means.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 40 words
The combination of claim 5 in which said attaching means is a dowel pin mounted in a bore in said head and generally parallel to said aligned bore and passing through a corresponding bore in said one of said plugs.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 17 words
The combination of claim 5 in which said drawing means comprises screw-threaded means connecting together said plugs.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 53 words
The combination of claim 5 in which said attaching means is a dowel pin mounted in a bore in said head and generally parallel to said aligned bore and passing through a corresponding bore in said one of said plugs, and in which said drawing means comprises screw-threaded means connecting together said plugs.
