Abstract
Abstract A boring tool, especially for drill hammers with a hollow drill core bit, which the inner thread of the hollow drill core bit connected directly to the borer shank and in which a corresponding outer thread provided on a holding mandrel form a part of the borer shank have a wire coil-thread insert inserted therebetween. The hollow drill core bit and the borer shank are provided with centering surfaces located between the windings of the wire coil thread insert and arranged in centering engagement with each other.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim
151 words
A boring tool, especially for drill hammers, which includes: a borer shank comprising in combination a holding mandrel provided with an outer thread and with an outer helical centering surface between the windings of said outer thread, a hollow drill core bit provided with an inner thread corresponding to said outer thread and together with the latter forming a helical passageway while having an inner helical centering surface located between the windings of said inner thread and in centering engagement with said outer helical centering surface, and a cylindrical wire coil-thread insert located in said helical passageway and firmly interconnecting said bit and said shank, said centering surfaces between said outer and said inner threads being cylindrical and being provided at least within the region of the ends of said wire coil thread insert, said helical centering surfaces extending in an uninterrupted manner between adjacent windings of said wire coil-thread insert.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
151 words
A boring tool, especially for drill hammers, which includes: a borer shank comprising in combination a holding mandrel provided with an outer thread and with an outer helical centering surface between the windings of said outer thread, a hollow drill core bit provided with an inner thread corresponding to said outer thread and together with the latter forming a helical passageway while having an inner helical centering surface located between the windings of said inner thread and in centering engagement with said outer helical centering surface, and a cylindrical wire coil-thread insert located in said helical passageway and firmly interconnecting said bit and said shank, said centering surfaces between said outer and said inner threads being cylindrical and being provided at least within the region of the ends of said wire coil thread insert, said helical centering surfaces extending in an uninterrupted manner between adjacent windings of said wire coil-thread insert.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
30 words
A tool according to claim 1, which includes a centering borer connected to said shank and extending in axial direction thereof and of and through said hollow drill core bit.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
26 words
A tool according to claim 1, in which the pitch of said wire coil-thread insert corresponds approximately to the diagonal measure of its wire cross section.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
46 words
A tool in combination according to claim 1, in which said inner thread and said outer thread have approximately the same depth, and in which the centering surfaces in axial section merge at approximately 90° and at a sharp angle with said inner and outer threads.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
23 words
A tool in combination according to claim 1, in which said centering surfaces extend approximately over the entire length of said holding mandrel.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
23 words
A tool in combination according to claim 1, in which said centering surfaces are designed to fit each other with slight sliding fit.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
74 words
A tool in combination according to claim 1, in which said wire coil-thread insert extends approximately up to that end of the inner thread which faces toward the working end of said borer, and in which the free end of said holding mandrel is set back by approximately one-third winding relative to that end of said inner thread which in assembled condition of said tool is closest to the working end of said bit.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
19 words
A tool in combination according to claim 1, in which said wire coil-thread insert has a circular cross section.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
19 words
A tool in combination according to claim 1, in which said wire coil-thread insert consists of radially formed steel.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
28 words
A tool in combination according to claim 1, in which the length of the wire coil-thread insert corresponds substantially to the diameter of said inner and outer thread.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
29 words
A tool in combination according to claim 1, in which said holding mandrel forms one single integral piece with said borer shank and forms the front end section thereof.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
22 words
A tool in combination according to claim 1, in which said centering surfaces are designed to fit each other with press fit.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
39 words
A tool in combination according to claim 1, in which said holding mandrel has that end thereof which is adjacent said shank provided with an annular groove having a diameter less than the core diameter of said outer thread.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
23 words
A tool according to claim 13, in which the rear end of said wire coil-thread insert extends only up to said annular groove.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim
45 words
A tool in combination according to claim 1, in which the inner surface of said borer shank is provided with a shoulder surface, and in which said hollow drill core bit has its rear end surface in face to face engagement with said shoulder surface.
Claim 17
Dependent Claim
36 words
A tool in combination according to claim 15, in which said shoulder surface is located directly adjacent to the rear end of the holding mandrel, said holding mandrel having a shorter diameter than said shoulder surface.
Claim 18
Dependent Claim
23 words
A tool in combination according to claim 16, in which said annular shoulder surface forms the rear side surface of said annular groove.
