4 Claims.
Our invention relates to an apparatus for forming dimples, and more particularly to an improved dimpling tool including means whereby the depth of the dimple to be formed may be pre cisely controlled,
Our present invention relates to improvements in dimpling tools of the type described and claimed in the copending application, Veit, Method and apparatus for the dimpling of hard metal alloys, Serial No. 548,073, filed August 4, 1944. The tool of the instant invention provides many of the advantages described in connection with the device of said Veit application and has been developed and is utilized for similar purposes.
Our improved dimpling tool also includes means for controlling the final position of the tool body with respect to the top surface of the sheet being dimpled to insure that the spinning tool will move down into the sheet far enough to form an adequate dimple but not so far that the burr remover will cut into the surface of the sheet. The construction is such thatthis has been achieved while retaining the advantages of the tool of the said copending application. i i
7 It is possible for a skilled operator to achieve a careful control of the depth of each dimple with existing dimpling tools, This, however, requires considerable experience in the handling of the tools. When unskilled operators use such tools, variations of several thousandths of an inch in the depth of the dimple, and damage to the surface of the sheet adjacent the dimple by the burr remover, may occur. In. sheet metal work requiring precision and accuracy of the degree involved in the construction of aircraft, and the like, such variations and imperfections lead to excessively high costs, and are to be avoided if possible. 7
To provide equipment suited to use by unskilled operators, drill presses are conventionally equipped with adjustable frame stops to limit the movement of the tool at a predetermined point with respect to the frame. Such apparatus, however, does not stop the movement'ofthe tool at apredetermined point with respect to the surface of a sheet. All large metal sheets possess thick-v ness variation from point to point over their surface. Consequently the various portions of the sheet surface are not on the same. plane. When the conventional drill press frame stop is so ad justed as to produce the desired dimple on the thick .part of the sheet the tool would not at a thinner portion of the sheet come down; far enough to complete the dimple or to removethe burr formed by the dimpling operation. When the frame stop is adjusted-forthe thin portion, the tool would cutaoo deeply-.intothe thicker part. As-a result, ;control arrangements which involve regulatory meansapart from the dimpling tool itself require the skilled operator to make frequent adjustments to' compensate for the variations in the thickness of metal being worked. The unskilled operator being unfamiliar with the thickness variations-inherent in sheet stock and lacking the experience thatwould provide the proper feel of the =wprking tool finds it difficult to form acceptable dimples.
It is an object ofour invention to provide a spindimpling tool having dimple control means integral therewith whereby the operator may produce -uniform',:acceptable dimples regardless of the thickness variation in the sheet being worked; q '1 It is a further object of our. invention to provide a tool for forming a dimple about a hole in sheet metal that includesa metal spinning element adapted to be advanced into the sheet to spin 'a conical dimple about the hole and trim the burr occasioned by the spinning, and wherein means are provided to insure that the tool advance will complete the dimple and trim the burr flush with the surface'of the sheetwithout being advanced to'a point-where the burring operation penetrates the surfaceofthe sheet; 1
It is another'object ofour invention to provide a tool for forming a dimple about'a hole in sheet metal that includes ametal spinning element adapted to be advanced into the sheet to spin a conical dimple about th hole} and burr trimming means surrounding'said metal spinning element adapted to be advanced with said spinning element wherebysaidtrimming' element will trim the burr occasioned by the spinning. and wherein control means are provided toinsure that the tool advance will completeahe dimple to a predetermined depthjin the sheet and will trim the burr, flush withthesurfaceof the sheet without permitting the trimming element to penetrate the surface of the sheet, 7 v 7 It is another object vofol-lr lnventionto provide a tool accordingto, thepreceding object wherein the said control means includes a pressure pad mounted foraxial. and rotarymovement relative to said spinningandtrimming means and cooperating stops on the. toolbody and pressure pad limiting the relative axial movement between the pressure. pad and I tool he dy.
It is another-objectpf our invention to a. tool according t the preceding object wherein appear more fully in the following descriptionand in the accompanying drawings, wherein;
Figure 1 is a cross sectional view of our 'dimpling tool with the sheet tobe-dimpled in place on the anvil, and with the tool'in raised position;
Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the spinning element lowered with respect to the pressure pad;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged end view of the spinning and burring elements of the tool;
Fig. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary perspective view showing the spinning, burring, and pilot elements of the tool; and
Fig; 5 is an enlarged detail in perspective of the adjusting collar of our dimpling tool.
A preferred embodiment of our invention comprises a rotating tool body 6 having at one end a shank 1 adapted to be secured to and driven by the chuck 8 of a conventional'drill pressfand an anvil9 including a depending centering boss [0 held in a suitable fixture, or vise, H in alignment with the axis of the tool body 6 as shown-in Figure 1. The lower end of the tool body 6 is provided with an axial bore i2- interiorly threaded to receive the threaded shank 13 of a metal spinning element l4. At its lower end the metal spinning element i4 is formed witha'plurality' of radial ribs (see Figs. 1, '3and 4), each having a rounded outer edge, to work the metal of the dimple, as described in the copending application-,Serial No. 548,073. The extreme tip of the spinning element I4 is formed to function as apilot l6. Surrounding a'portion of the spinning element which extends below the tool body 6, and in threaded engagement with the spinningelement, is a burrer H formed at its lower end with cutting teeth 18.
Shims of varying thickness may be inserted between the spinning element i4 and the top of the bore 12- to accommodate adjustment of the spinning element :andburrer occasioned-by wear and sharpening of the teeth I8. A shim I9 is shown abutting the end of shank l3 to-prevent further movement into the threaded bore l2 due to axial pressure and turning of the tool body. Whenthe cutting teeth l8 become worn or shortened by re-shar-pening it is necessary to move the spinning element 14 upwardly in relation to the burrer H in order to preserve the proper spacing between their working edges. Consequently the Ishim l9 would in'that event be replaced by a thinner one. An aperture 2!] is provided in one side of the burrer I! to accommodate a spanner wrench whereby the burrer may be tightened on the spinning element 14. A slidablymounted cylindrical pressure pad 21 is provided for the major portion of its length with an axial bore which is .adapted to [receive the burrer l1! and the adjacent portion of the tool body 6. The pressure pad is provided with a concave end surface 22, which cooperates with the convex anvilysurface 23 to flex the sheet metal slightly in a direction opposite that of the dimple itself to obtain the advantages of the arrangement shown and described in Veit patent, No; 2,288,378, granted June 30, 1-942. The pressure pad 2i is urged downward- 1y by a spring 24 extending from the shoulder 25 on the tool body 6, and to insure that the pressure pad will not be driven by the tool body as the pad engages the work sheet W, an upper thrust bearing 32 and a lower thrust bearing 40 are provided to effect free rotation between the The -'end-=perticn of the tool body 6 'adjacent the shank I is threaded to receive an interiorly threaded collar 26 which is adapted for adjustable movement on the threaded portion of the tool body. The collar 26 is shown in detail in Figure5. -Tofprevent the rotation of the collar "onfthe ree bc'tly -after its adjustment, the coliar' lfi"isSplitbrfbne side, as at 27, and may be clamped 'onto thetool body 6 as by a threaded bolt beinepassedthrough a hole 28 which is cut through portions of the collar on both sides of the"br'eak 21.

The extent of movement which is permitted between the thrust bearing 35 and the collar 26 may be varied, by raising or lowering the collar 26 on the tool body 6.
Preferably shank l! is provided with an enlarged unthreaded base portion 38 formed slightly less in diameter than the diameter of tool body 6. Indicia 39 may be placed on said base portion 38 and an index line may be so positioned on the top of the collar 26 as to show in fractions of an inch the displacement of the pressure pad sleeve with respect to the tool body. The user may thus determine with micrometer exactness the character of the dimple to be produced and assure removal of any burr formed adjacent the dimple.
If it is desired the sleeve 30 may be prevented from rotating relative to the tool body 6 by a laterally extending member secured to the sleeve that engages a stop on the dimpling tool standi With the use of our invention it will be appreciated that the depth of the dimples will be the same regardless of variations in the thickness of the sheet being worked and that no skill is required to consistently obtain uniform dimples.
