Patented Jan. 13, 1948 DRIVER FOR STUDS AND THE LIKE Eugene R. Emmons, Goshen, vInd., assignor to Benn Electric Switch Co., Goshen, Ind., a corporation of Iowa Application August 14, 1944, Serial No. 549,315
4 Claims.
My invention relates to a driver for studs and the like so designed and constructed that the driver can be rota-ted for driving a stud into a threaded hole.
One object of the invention is to provide a driver that can be used on a pneumatic or electric motor and which is operable in a very simple manner by merely pushing a stud into the jaws of the driver, then using the driver to thread the stud into a threaded opening in a boss, housing or the like, and then after the stud is set, releasing the driver from the stud by the simple operation of pulling the driver away from the stud.
Another object is to provide a driver that has an automatically operable jaw arrangement for holding the stud, the jaws being formed of a plurality of parts which are openable and closable by axial movement in the body of the driver, axial movement in one direction being imparted to the jaws by engaging the thread of the stud with one of the jaw parts, and axial movement in the other direction being accomplished by withdrawing the body relative to the stud after the stud has been set.
A further object is to provide detent means for holding the jaws in either their opened or closed position, the driver having a disc-like knob surrounding it which can be engaged by hand for manual rotation of the driver if desired.
With these and other objects in View, my invention consists in the construction, arrangement and combination of the various parts of my device whereby the objects contemplated are attained, as hereinafter more iully set forth, pointed out in my claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Figure l is a perspective view of a stud driver embodying my invention and showing the jaws thereof spread apart.
Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view through the driver and showing how a stud is engaged with a jaw of the driver.
Figure 3 is a similar sectional view showing the stud pushed into the driver and the jaws thereby closed.
Figure 4 is a sectional view similar to Figure 3 and on the line 4 4 of Figure 3 showing the jaws in closed position, and
Figure 5 is a sectional view similar to Figure 4 showing the jaws in open position.
On the accompanying drawings, I have used the reference character B to indicate a body which has a shank lil extending into a motor M for operating my stud driver, the motor M may be of either pneumatic or electric type and may include an impact clutch arrangement which however forms no part of my present invention.
The body B has a bore I2 having tapered parts I4 and i6. The body B also has a pair of slots I8 opposite each other and a set screw seat 2U spaced from the slots i8. Within the body B is located a pair of jaws J. Each jaw has an annular groove 22 to receive a rubber or coiled spring ring 24, and the jaws are cross grooved as at 25. The grooves 26 together form a round hole and a pin 2l extends therethrough and has its ends located in the slots TB.
Over each slot i8, a ball 28' is located, the balls being in a bore 3d of a disc-like knob K. The balls 28 are spring pressed into the slots I8 by means of springs 32, held in position by threaded plugs 34. The knob K is rigidly held imposition on the body B by means of a set screw 36 seated in the seat 2G.
The jaws J are provided with enlarged heads 38 which are adapted to coact with the taper l5 of the bore l2, as will hereinafter appear. The jaws have threaded seats dii therein which when the jaws are closed constitute a threaded hole to receive a stud S and when the jaws are open they free the stud as shown in Figures 3 and 2 respectively. A smaller hole 42 is located at the In the operation of my stud driver, assuming the parts to be in the position shown in Figures l and 2 and the stud driver mounted on the shaft of the motor M, the stud S may be associated with the driver by placing it in the position shown in Figure 2 and then pushing the stud into the body B as indicated by the arrow a. The threads at the left hand end ofthe stud engage the threads of one of the jaws J so as to propel it and, through the pin 21, the other jaw into the body B to the position of Figure 3 when the stud is pushed inwardly. Accordingly the jaws close on the stud and it is obvious that when the position of Figure 3 is reached, the motor M may be manipulated so that the stud S engages the outer end of a threaded opening of a boss 44 or the like. When electrical energy or uid pressure is supplied to the motor M the stud will be rotated into the jaws as far as it will go and then the stud will be driven into the threaded opening of the boss.
After the stud is set, the motor M may be stopped, declutched or may be left running and the driver disassociated from the stud merely by withdrawing it therefrom. The withdrawing operation results in the jaws being pulled from the position in Figure 3 part way to the position of Figure 2 so that the jaws may disengage from the stud. During the withdrawal operation of the stud driver, the pin 21 snaps past the balls 28 and the balls nish the jaw opening movement. The balls serve to hold the jaws in either the position of Figure 3 or the position of Figure 4 when once they have been moved to either position. They thus keep the jaws closed on the stud while positioning it for entrance into a threaded opening and cooperate with the ring 24 to hold the jaws open after the stud is set and until the next stud is positioned in the driver.
Some changes may be madel in the construction and arrangement in the parts of my stud driver within the scope of the appended claims without departing from the real spirit and purpose of my invention.
