Abstract
The invention herein relates to an undercutting device which is provided with a substantially tubular body adapted to be placed within a parallel-sided hole. A rotary percussion head is provided at one end of the body and has one or more cutting tools which extend radially therefrom at an obtuse angle and which cutting tools are adapted to cut outwardly from the radius of the body, means are provided for rotating the head about the axis of the body and for operating the percussion head at one predetermined depth in the hole so that the cutting tools may act on the wall of the parallel-sided hole.
Claims3
An undercutter comprising a substantially tubular body adapted to be received within a parallel-sided hole;
- a rotary percussion head at one end of the body and having one or more cutting tools radially extending from, obtusely angled to, and adapted to cut outwardly from the axis of said body;
- means for rotating said head about the axis of said body;
- and means for operating said percussion head at any predetermined depth in said hole so that the cutting tools act on the wall thereof, said percussion head being cylindrical and is provided with a plurality of cutting tools which are disposed in rows spaced axially with respect to said body.
An undercutter comprising a substantially tubular body adapted to be received within a prallel-sided hole;
- a rotary percussion head at one end of the body and having one or more cutting tools radially extending from, obtusely angled to, and adapted to cut outwardly from the axis of said body;
- means for rotating said head about the axis of said body;
- and means for operating said percussion head at any predetermined depth in said hole so that the cutting tools act on the wall thereof, and wherein cutting tools are provided on the percussion head spaced axially with respect to said body and arranged so that their working areas overlap.
An undercutter comprising a substantially tubular body adapted to be received within a parallel-sided hole;
- a rotary percussion head at one end of the body and having one or more cutting tools radially extending from, obtusely angled to, and adapted to cut outwardly from the axis of said body;
- means for rotating said head about the axis of said body;
- and means for operating said percussion head at any predetermined depth in said hole so that the cutting tools act on the wall thereof, and wherein the percussion head comprises a cylinder block detachably secured to the main body of the head through a spacer extending normal to the line of action of the cutting tools, the thickness of which determines the diameter cut by the cutting tool.
