Abstract
A punching tool includes: a punch driver transmitting an impact force to a punch body and having a screw portion on an outer peripheral surface of an upper portion; a punch head having a screw portion meshed with the screw portion of the punch driver on an inside surface and having a main scale provided in a vertical direction on an outside surface; a punch head rotation preventing means freely selecting a rotation and a fixation of the punch head with respect to the punch driver; and a punch head collar freely rotating and fixing with respect to the punch driver and provided with a sub scale showing a change of a height of the punch head in cooperation with the main scale.
Claims5
A punching tool, comprising:
- a punch driver transmitting an impact force to a punch body, the punch driver including a screw portion on an outer peripheral surface of an upper portion;
- a punch head including a screw portion meshed with the screw portion of the punch driver on an inside surface, the punch head including a main scale provided in a vertical direction on an outside surface;
- a punch head rotation prevention mechanism to selectively fix the punch head with respect to the punch driver and release the punch head to rotate relative to the punch driver;
- and
- a punch head collar mounted to the punch driver, the punch head collar including a sub scale showing a change of a height of the punch head in cooperation with the main scale;
- wherein the punch head rotation prevention mechanism comprises:
- a plurality of grooves extending in a vertical direction on an outer peripheral surface of the punch driver;
- a stopper pin preventing the punch head from rotating by passing through the punch head so as to fit to the groove;
- and
- a collar freely movable in a vertical direction, wherein the collar is located outside the punch head;
- wherein
- the collar is urged upward so as to insert the stopper pin into the groove so that the punch head cannot be rotated with respect to the punch drive;
- and
- wherein the collar allows the punch head to rotate when the collar is moved downward.
