Abstract
A dynamically configurable arbor assembly apparatus. The dynamically configurable arbor assembly apparatus provides plural configurations with removable and attachable components that can be dynamically adjusted and configured to be used with a large variety of power tools, lathes and/or milling machines including plural different attachment interfaces. The dynamically configurable arbor assembly apparatus can also replace a chuck component the power tools, lathes and/or milling machines.
Claims10
A dynamically configurable arbor assembly apparatus, comprising in combination:
- a threaded receptacle connection component within a top surface of a body component for accepting, engaging and securing the dynamically configurable arbor assembly apparatus on a power tool, milling machine or on a lathe;
- a tool component with one or more locking receptacles on a top surface of the tool component, the one or more receptacles extending through the total component for dynamically locating, aligning and locking the tool component onto a bottom surface of the body component of the dynamically configurable arbor assembly apparatus and preventing unwanted rotation, wobbling and other undesirable movements of the tool component during its use with the dynamically configurable arbor assembly apparatus,
- the tool component comprising a hole saw blade;
- a securing component on a side surface of the body component for securing the tool component inserted within a hollow receptacle in the body component;
- a threaded connection component on the bottom surface of the body component for accepting, engaging and securing the tool component, the threaded connection component including a hollow receptacle component on a bottom surface of the threaded connection component for accepting, engaging and securing the tool component through the threaded connection component into the hollow receptacle component in the body component;
- and
- one or more locking components on the bottom surface of the body component,
- the one or more locking components locating, aligning, locking and further securing a top surface of the tool component to the bottom surface of the configurable arbor assembly apparatus,
- the one or more locking components locating, aligning, locking into the one or more locking receptacles on the top surface of the tool component,
- the one or more locking components preventing unwanted rotation, wobbling and other undesirable movements of the tool component during its use,
- the one or more locking components including threaded screws or a combination thereof, to dynamically engage into an open position and dynamically disengage into a closed position, individual ones of the one or more locking components, or a combination thereof,
- the one or more locking components in an open position dynamically locating, aligning, locking into the one or more individual locking receptacles on the top surface of the tool component and preventing unwanted rotation, wobbling and other underirable movements of the tool component during its use,
- the one or more locking components dynamically adjustable to various lengths in an engaged open position to engage top surfaces of tool components of varying thicknesses.
