Abstract:
An elongated drill bit has a shank at one end and working end at the other. A flute portion is between the working end and the shank. The flute portion is continuous with the shank and working end and is generally unitarily formed with them. The flute portion has at least one flute with a helix angle between approximately 30° and 35°. The working end has a pilot tip with a cutting portion. A tapered web is formed in the flute portion, a thickness of the web at the tip of the working end is about 9% to 15% of the nominal diameter.
Abstract:
In the case of a cutting insert, in particular for counterboring and/or countersinking operations, the cutting insert has two longitudinal sides and two narrow sides between an upper side and an underside. A cutting edge is formed between one longitudinal side and one narrow side and runs obliquely in relation to the underside and extends over at least approximately the entire depth of the cutting body. A cutting face running between the upper side and the underside is provided in the longitudinal side that is facing the cutting edge.
Abstract:
A shank that has one end adapted to be connected to a chuck of a rotary tool. The opposite end of the shank supports a cutting head having a series of teeth formed on the edge thereof for cutting the periphery of the hole. A screw tip may be provided for feeding the bit into and through the wood. A plurality of cutting blades are provided for boring the interior of the hole. The cutting blades define a plurality of cutting edges that are disposed at different angles to a plan perpendicular to the axis of rotation.
Abstract:
The drill bit comprises a cutting blade formed at one end of a shank. The cutting blade has a pair of cutting shoulders that extend inwardly from the outer sides of the blade toward the bit axis. A tip having converging sides that create a point extends from the shoulders. The cutting edge of each shoulder is beveled with respect to the plane of the face of the blade. A flute is provided on the leading portion of each blade face adjacent the cutting edges. Each flute is a smooth curve that creates a substantially uninterrupted recess on each face of the blade that facilitates chip removal, increases the drill rate and lowers the power required to drill a hole. A non-stick coating may be applied to the blade to further facilitate chip removal.
Abstract:
A hole saw has an arbor and a cup shaped cutting member. The cup shaped cutting member has an annular skirt with a plurality of teeth at its free end. A drill bit is secured on the arbor. The drill bit includes a pilot point with a first cutting edge. A second edge is formed on the body portion of the drill bit to form a constant diameter hole in the workpiece.
Abstract:
A drill includes a flute and a shank, a feed screw extends axially from an end of the flute. A plurality of first cutting edges extend radially from the flute and are arranged in spiral form. A plurality of second cutting edges are formed on respective tops of the first cutting edges and these second cutting edges are dull when compared with the first cutting edges. Each second cutting edge has a thick support portion connected at a root portion thereof.
Abstract:
A spade drill bit (202) comprises a shaft (204) having one end (205) configured to be engaged to a driving tool and a cutting head (206) attached at an opposite end of said shaft (204). The cutting head (206) includes a center point (216) having threads (240) defined thereon, including continuous threads (247) adjacent the tip and discontinuous threads (242) thereafter toward the base.

Abstract:
A spade drill bit has a shaft and a spade head portion arranged on the shaft. The head portion has a rearward facing bottom edge, two longitudinal sides and a forward facing cutting edge. The cutting edge has a pointed, generally triangularly shaped tip and outer ends. The longitudinal sides of the head portion are bent along a bend in a direction of rotation of the drill bit during operation, so that the outer ends are bent forwards in the rotating direction. The bend runs from a first position at one of the longitudinal sides, closer to the bottom edge than to the cutting edge, and to a second position at the cutting edge between the outer end and the tip.
Abstract:
An elongate drill bit (20) with a longitudinal axis (X-X) has a shank (28), a working end (24), and a fluted section (26) between the shank and the working end. The shank, the working end and the fluted section are all formed integrally in the drill bit. The working end has an outer cutting portion (34) and a central pilot tip (36) which extends axially ahead of the outer cutting portion. The pilot tip is formed with at least one pair of minor cutting edges (40, 42; 44, 46) arranged on opposite sides of the axis. The outer cutting portion is formed with a pair of major cutting edges (70, 72) arranged on opposite sides of the axis. The outer cutting portion has a major diameter (D) defined by the pair of major cutting edges. The pilot tip has a minor diameter (d) defined by the at least one pair of minor cutting edges. The fluted section has a pair of helical lands (32) each with a respective inner surface (92) extending axially rearward from one of the major cutting edges and from one of the minor cutting edges. The helical lands define a web (94). Each helical land defines a respective helical flute (30). The helical lands have a pitch (S) and the web has a web thickness (K) at the pilot tip such that the ratio of the pitch to the major diameter (S:D) falls within a range of about 380% to about 410%. Also, the ratio of the minor diameter to the web thickness at the pilot tip (d:K) falls within a range of about 220% to about 380%.
