Abstract
A portable grinder utilizing a standard electric hand drill as a source of mechanical power has a support base structure upon the upper surface of which is journalled a drive spindle one end of which is adapted to receive, in driving engagement, the chuck of the hand drill, and the other end of which serves to drive a grinding wheel and other rotatively driven tools selectively attachable thereto. Adjustable means is provided for supporting an electric hand drill in rotary alignment with the drive spindle; and a cover member removably attachable to the base structure renders the assemblage fully portable.
Claims6
An electric hand drill powered tool for use with an electric hand drill having a drill body portion journalling a drive chuck at one end thereof and a hand grip portion extending sidewardly outwardly of the drill body portion, comprising, in combination, a support base structure having a flat upper surface, a drive spindle, means for journalling said drive spindle in spaced parallel relation above said flat upper surface, said drive spindle having a driven end spindle shaft portion extending outwardly of one end of said journalling means, said drive spindle having a driving end spindle shaft portion extending outwardly of other end of said journalling member, means for adjustably supporting said electric hand drill above said flat upper surface so that the chuck thereof is in rotative alignment with said drive spindle for engagement with said driven end of said spindle shaft portion, a rotatively driven tool, means for drivingly interconnecting said rotatively driven tool with said driving shaft spindle portion, said adjustable electrical hand drill supporting means comprising a first upstanding bracket fixed upon said support base structure and having an elongated upper surface portion parallel with and laterally off-set to one side of the axis of rotation of said drive spindle for supporting, from below, the hand grip portion of said electric hand drill, a second support bracket extending upwardly of said upper surface of said support base structure for supporting, from below, the body portion of said electric hand drill, the upper end of said second bracket being elongated and defining an acute angle with respect to said flat upper surface, means for adjustably securing said second bracket in the direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation of said drive spindle for accommodating hand drills having body portions of different sizes, said base support structure being of rectangular box-like structure, a cover member attachable in enclosing relation with respect to said upper surface of said support base structure, and a sliding drawer housed by said support base structure.
