Abstract

Abstract A guide body having a passage therethrough for accommodating a tool bit is pivotally mounted between a pair of spaced, upstanding plates secured to a base member. A stop member adjustably threaded into the passage controls the depth of penetration of the tool bit. Lateral projections extend from opposite sides of the guide body through arcuate slots in the plates for receiving fasteners to secure the guide body in a selected angular position relative to the base member. In another form, a pair of rods pivotally mounted adjacent the base member extend through lugs projecting laterally outwardly from opposite sides of the guide body and set screws in the lugs engage the rods for securing the guide body in a selected angular orientation.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 115 words
A portable tool guide comprising an elongated base, a pair of spaced plates secured to said base, an elongated guide body having an axial passage therethrough for receiving and guiding a tool bit, said base having an opening for the passage of said tool bit therethrough, said guide body substantially spanning the space between said plates, pivot means extending transversely through said guide body adjacent one end thereof and through said plates for pivotally mounting said guide body on said plates enabling said guide body to move angularly relative to said plates, and means spaced from said pivotal mounting means for releasably securing said guide body in a selective angular position relative to said base.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 115 words
A portable tool guide comprising an elongated base, a pair of spaced plates secured to said base, an elongated guide body having an axial passage therethrough for receiving and guiding a tool bit, said base having an opening for the passage of said tool bit therethrough, said guide body substantially spanning the space between said plates, pivot means extending transversely through said guide body adjacent one end thereof and through said plates for pivotally mounting said guide body on said plates enabling said guide body to move angularly relative to said plates, and means spaced from said pivotal mounting means for releasably securing said guide body in a selective angular position relative to said base.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 57 words
A portable tool guide according to claim 1 wherein said base is bifurcated at one end thereof to provide a pair of laterally spaced fingers, an adapter pivotally mounted at one end thereof between said fingers, the other end of said adapter being provided with a lip portion adapted to engage the leading edge of a workpiece.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 53 words
A portable tool guide according to claim 1 wherein said pivot means includes a bolt passing through said guide body, and said plates are provided with a plurality of laterally aligned openings whereby said bolt is selectively positioned in any pair of aligned openings to vary the pivot axis of said guide body.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 56 words
A portable tool guide according to claim 3 wherein said releasably securing means comprises a pair of rods pivotally mounted adjacent one end on said base, and a pair of lugs extending laterally from said guide body, said rods passing through openings provided in said lugs, and fasteners on said lugs for engagement with said rods.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 41 words
A portable tool guide according to claim 1 in combination with an adapter having a generally rectangular recess in one side thereof for receiving said base and a recess in the opposite side thereof conforming to the shape of a workpiece.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 41 words
A portable tool guide according to claim 3 in combination with an adapter having a generally rectangular recess in one side thereof for receiving said base and a recess in the opposite side thereof conforming to the shape of a workpiece.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 131 words
A portable tool guide comprising a base, a pair of spaced plates secured to said base, a guide body having a passage for receiving and guiding a tool bit, means pivotally mounting said guide body between said plates for enabling said guide body to move angularly relative to said plates and means spaced from said pivotal mounting means for releasably securing said guide body in a selective angular position relative to said base, means releasably secured to said guide body for controlling the depth of penetration of said drill bit, said controlling means comprising a stop member having a stem adjustably threaded into said passage of said guide body, an enlarged head on said stem, and an axial passage in said stop member foR receiving and guiding a tool bit therethrough.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 131 words
A portable tool guide comprising a base, a pair of spaced plates secured to said base, a guide body having a passage for receiving and guiding a tool bit, means pivotally mounting said guide body between said plates for enabling said guide body to move angularly relative to said plates and means spaced from said pivotal mounting means for releasably securing said guide body in a selective angular position relative to said base, means releasably secured to said guide body for controlling the depth of penetration of said drill bit, said controlling means comprising a stop member having a stem adjustably threaded into said passage of said guide body, an enlarged head on said stem, and an axial passage in said stop member foR receiving and guiding a tool bit therethrough.
