Abstract
Abstract An improved means for locating the pilot drill of a hole saw assembly is disclosed. The assembly generally includes an arbor, which has a body and a spindle projecting from one end thereof, and a cup-shaped hole saw, with the arbor and the hole saw carrying cooperating cam and spring-loaded locking and driving means to draw one planar face of the arbor into secure flush engagement with the planar face of the base of the cup-shaped cutting member or hole saw itself. The forward face of the arbor has a recess therein, and one end of the pilot drill has a locating sleeve dimensioned so as to fit into the recess in the face of the arbor so that when the locking and driving means are utilized to draw the face of the arbor into flush contact with the face of the hole saw, the sleeve is trapped between the two faces, and the pilot drill is firmly located.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
99 words
A hole saw assembly comprising: A. an arbor having 1. a body portion with opposed first and second faces, and 2. a spindle projecting from said first face, B. a cylindrical cutting member having 1. a base with a rearwardly presented planar face, 2. a cylindrical body secured to said base, and 3. cutting teeth on the forward edge of said body; C. locking and driving means carried by said arbor for engaging said base of said cutting member and drawing said base into flush contact with said second planar face of said arbor; D. a pilot, drill having
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
143 words
an elongate shank with first and second ends, 2. a cutting tip disposed on said first end of said shank, and 3. an axially and radially extending locating sleeve disposed on said second end of said shank; E. said second face of said arbor having a blind recess therein, with said recess having a configuration and depth dimension substantially complemental to the configuration and depth dimension of said locating sleeve; F. said base of said cutting member having a through aperture therein for reception of said shank of said pilot drill; and G. said locating sleeve being received in said recess in said second face of said arbor and being trapped between said second face of said arbor and said rearwardly presented face of said cutting member against axial and rotational movement with respect thereto upon actuation of said locking and driving means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
143 words
an elongate shank with first and second ends, 2. a cutting tip disposed on said first end of said shank, and 3. an axially and radially extending locating sleeve disposed on said second end of said shank; E. said second face of said arbor having a blind recess therein, with said recess having a configuration and depth dimension substantially complemental to the configuration and depth dimension of said locating sleeve; F. said base of said cutting member having a through aperture therein for reception of said shank of said pilot drill; and G. said locating sleeve being received in said recess in said second face of said arbor and being trapped between said second face of said arbor and said rearwardly presented face of said cutting member against axial and rotational movement with respect thereto upon actuation of said locking and driving means.
