Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
154 words
A method for fabricating a chamfered hole comprising the steps of providing a drill bit with a first tapered portion and an enlarged portion, drilling a hole in a workpiece with said enlarged portion, engaging the edge of the drilled hole with the tapered portion of the drill bit, and effecting relative movement between the drill bit and the workpiece to cause the tapered portion of the drill bit to traverse the circumference of the edge of the hole, said drill bit being provided with a second portion reversely tapered with respect to the first tapered portion, and wherein said method further comprises the step of contacting the upper and lower edges of the hole with the respective first and second tapered portions of the drill bit and effecting relative movement therebetween to cause the tapered portions of the drill bit to traverse the circumferences of the upper and lower edges of the hole.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
154 words
A method for fabricating a chamfered hole comprising the steps of providing a drill bit with a first tapered portion and an enlarged portion, drilling a hole in a workpiece with said enlarged portion, engaging the edge of the drilled hole with the tapered portion of the drill bit, and effecting relative movement between the drill bit and the workpiece to cause the tapered portion of the drill bit to traverse the circumference of the edge of the hole, said drill bit being provided with a second portion reversely tapered with respect to the first tapered portion, and wherein said method further comprises the step of contacting the upper and lower edges of the hole with the respective first and second tapered portions of the drill bit and effecting relative movement therebetween to cause the tapered portions of the drill bit to traverse the circumferences of the upper and lower edges of the hole.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
93 words
A method as in claim 1, in which a narrow diameter portion of the drill bit connects the first and second tapered portions, said method further comprising engaging the internal surface of the hole with the smaller diameter portion of the drill bit, and effecting relative movement between said drill bit and the workpiece to cause said narrow diameter portion to traverse the inner wall of said hole, and causing at least one of said tapered surfaces to engage and traverse the surface of at least one of the edges of the hole.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
45 words
The method of claim 1, including the further step of axially moving the drill bit relative to the workpiece to align the first and second tapered portions with the plane of the respective upper and lower edges of the workpiece prior to contacting the same.
