Abstract
A holesaw mandrel has a mandrel body with at least one bore, a pilot drill bit bore, and a first end coupled with the body. The first end is coupled with a driver. A second end extends from the body and includes a threaded spud. A sliding collar is axially movable on the mandrel body. The sliding collar includes at least one pin extending the bore in the mandrel body. A resilient member is positioned adjacent the threaded member to provide enhanced securement of the holesaw. The sliding collar is magnetized to prevent withdrawal of the pin from the holesaw. A positioning member is in the pilot drill bore to provide a desired orientation of the pilot drill bit.
Claims14
A holesaw mandrel assembly comprising:
- a mandrel including a body having at least one bore and a first end coupled with said body, said first end for coupling with driver, a second end extending from said body, said second end including a threaded member;
- a sliding collar axially movable on said body, said collar including at least one pin extending through said mandrel body at least one bore;
- and
- a resilient member adjacent said threaded member, said resilient member compressing when contacted by a holesaw screwed onto said threaded member, said resilient member reducing vibration and play of the holesaw on the mandrel.
A holesaw mandrel assembly comprising:
- a mandrel including a body having at least one bore and a first end coupled with said body, said first end for coupling with a driver, a second end extending from said body, said second end including a threaded member;
- a sliding collar axially movable on said body, said collar including at least one pin extending through said at least one bore;
- said sliding collar being magnetized such that said sliding collar is magnetically attracted to said body enhancing the connection between the sliding collar and said body for preventing withdrawal of said at least one pin from a hole saw.
