OSCAR W. JALAVA United States Patent() 3,359,836 DRILL PRESS WORK-HOLDING APPARATUS Oscar W. Jalava, 17862 Pierson Ave., Detroit, Mich. 48219 Filed June 9, 1965, Ser. No. 462,493 2 Claims. (Cl. 77-63) ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Drill press work-holding apparatus adapted for operations such as drilling, reaming and tapping characterized by enhanced efliciency, productivity and safety.
Summary of the invention Drill press work-holding apparatus permitting precision drilling of circular, curvilinear and rectilinear patterns on work pieces having curved or rectangular surfaces.
Bref description of the drawings In the drawings:
FIGURE 1 is a top plan view of one form of construction of the drill press slide table and bracket portions in accordance with the invention;

FIGURE Sfisv a top plan view'similar to FIGURE 1 but showing also a precision rotatable vise unit as another forrn of xture or work-holding device detachably securedl to the slide table portion in accordance withthe invention for achieving circular or curvilinear drilling patterns on a Work piece;
" AFIGURE 6 is a top plan view similar to FIGURES 1 and 4 but showing a simplified form of rectilinear vise unit; and` p h FIGURE 7 is an enlarged side elevation sectional view taken along the line 7-7 of FIGURE 4 and showing details ofthe rectilinear vise unit and further details of the locking pin and locking control member.
kReferring to the drawing in detail, in FIGURE 2 there is indicated generally at 11 a drill press which includes a hollow support column 12 vertically mounted on abase, not shown. Mounted at the top of column 12 is a head assembly 13 including an electric motor l14 which has its output shaft 15 coupled through suitable gearing mechanisms in housing 16 to dri-ve a vertical spindle 17 and a drill chuck 18 which holds a drill bit `19 Vor other rotary tool such as a reaming or tapping tool. In order to move the chuck and drill downwardly into operative Vengagement with the work piece on the table, a 3-'armed control member 20 is manually rotated to the extent required.
Support means for adjustably carrying the work-holding devices or fixtures will now be described. An undertable in the form of a bracket or support arm structure Patented Dec. 26, 1967 ICC 22 is adjustably mounted on column 12 by means of a split sleeve portion 23 and releasably locked at the desired level by means of a screw type locking mechanism or a cam type locking clamp mechanism 24 actuated by lever 25. A special adapter may be provided at 26 with 'suitable bushing to compensate for diterences in the diameter of column 12 and for other dimensional dil'ferences in different drill presses. A split safety collar may be secured on column 12 immediately below sleeve portion 23, if desired.
The bracket 22 has a generally horizontal undertable portion 28 bounded on its left side and right side, respectively by sloping vertical wall portions 29 and 30. Extending horizontally between wall portions 29 and 30 are two parallel elongated ridge portions 31 and 32 raised above undertable portion 28 and having parallel horizontal cylindrical bores or channels 33 and 34, respectively, which extend completely through the ridge portions. Preferably, each of bores 33 and 34 is tted with an elongated coextensive bushing 35 and 36, respectively.
At 38 there is provided a work table structure which is supported on the bracket 22 for adjustable rectilinear sliding movement in the horizontal Y direction. In other words, in FIGURE 3 table 38 is slideable to the left and to the right. Table 38 has a generally rectangular at top surface 39 and has a central cylindrical bore 40 which may be tted with a bushing 41. The cross-slide feature and alignment for table 38 is obtained by providing table 38 with a pair of elongated cylindrical rods 42 and 43 which are substantially horizontal and parallel'and which extend, respectively, throughout the length of channels 33 and 34 of bracket 22 and slide therein, or else in their bushings 35 and 36 if provided.
Rods 42 and 43 may be supported at their left-hand ends by passing substantially through, and terminating in, cylindrical holes 44 and 45, respectively, formed through the left-hand wall or flange 46 of table 3S, and they may be supported at their right-hand ends by passing substantially through, but terminating in, cylindrical holes 47 and 48, respectively, formed through the righthand wall or llange 49 of Vtable 38. Holes 44, 45, 47 and 48 may instead be cylindrical recesses extending part way into walls 46 and 49 so as to provide reentrant socket portions for the ends of rods 42 and 43. With either type' of holes, the ends of rods 42 and 43 may be xedly secured in holes 44, 45, 47 and 48, as by welding. With the holes illustrated in FIGURE l, the rods 42 and 43 may be free to turn in such holes but yet they will be secured against longitudinal movement by suitable means such' as a snap ring 50 or 51 in an annular groove in each rod and abutting against the inner surface of the respective wall. It will thus be seen that table 38 and rods 42 and 43 slide together as a unitary structure on the undertable or bracket 22.
In order slideably to advance 'and retract table 38 with precision as a micro-control slide table, there is provided (FIGURE 3) a horizontal lead-screw 52 which is rotatably supported in a bore 53 in wall 49 of table 38. A C clip 54 is provided in an annular groove in lead-screw 52 and abuts against the inner surface of wall 49 to permit rotation of screw 52 relative to table 38 but to prevent any rectilinear movement of screw 52 relative to table 38, whereby lead-screw 52 is rotatably secured to table 52. The threaded shank portion passes, with clearance, through a bore 55 in the Wall 30 of bracket 22 and is threaded through an internally threaded sleeve 56, which may instead be an internally threaded nut. Sleeve 56 is xedly secured, as by Welding, to the bottom surface of the undertable portion 28 of bracket 22. Fixedly secured to the right-hand end portion of lead-screw 52 outside wall 49 is a hand-wheel with eccentric control handle 57 and a concentric generally annular dial portion 58 provided with suitable graduations for micro-calibration. A suitable reference mark is provided on wall 49 near 58. It will thus be seen that clockwise rotation of handle 57 serves slideably to advance table 38 across bracket 22 with precision in one direction, for example to the left in FIGURE 3, along the horizontal axis Y, with respect to the spindle axis, whereas counter-clockwise rotation of handle 57 serves slideably to retract table 38 in the opposite direction, for example to the right, along the Y axis.
There will now be described a micro-control workholding device or fixture in the form of a cross-slide precision vise which complements the rectilinear adjustability of table 38 in the Y direction by providing precision rectilinear adjustability of a work piece in the horizontal X direction. As shown in FIGURES 4 and 7, vise 60 has a generally rectangular stationary mounting plate or base 61 with its flat bottom surface 62 resting upon the top surface 39 of table 38.
Before further describing vise 60, the interchangeability feature including the means for detachably holding the work-holding device, the vise 60 in FIGURES 4 and 7, normally against vertical movement, will now be described. As shown in detail in FIGURES 3 and 7, Within the central bore 40, and its bushing 41 if provided, there is vertically located a locking pin 64 having an intermediate cylindrical shank portion 65, an adjacent annular flange portion 66 of greater diameter and an upper portion 67 of diameter similar to portion 66. By suitable means such as screws 68, the locking pin 64 is fixedly secured to the bottom portion of the base 61 of vise 60. Below shank portion 66 in pin 64 there is formed an annular groove 69 of reduced diameter which separates portion 65 from a base portion 70 of the same diameter as portion 65.
Locking control means for pin 64 will now be described. A locking control unit 71 is provided comprising a horizontal elongated metal strip or plate element 72, in the form of a U-shaped clevis at its inner end, a compression spring 73 and a pull rod 74 having its inner end `fixedly secured to a flanged outer end portion of element 72. Element 72 is slideably supported in a rectangular channel between table 38 and a plate 75 secured to table 38, and has a thickness slightly less than the height of groove 69, and the outer end of rod 74 is slideably supported in a cylindrical bore 76 in Wall 49 of table 38. As shown in FIGURES 3 and 7, spring 73 normally biases rod 74 and element 72 to their innermost position where the two legs 78, the U-shaped cutout portion at the inner end of element 72 straddle more than half of the circumference of groove 69 of pin 64. In this position element 72 prevents vertical movement of pin 64, and the bottom surface of annular flange 66 of pin 64 is held resting on surface 39 of table 38. Since pin 64 is secured to the base 61 of vise 60, it will be seen that in this position the locking control unit 71 and pin 64 serve positively to hold the vise 60 against vertical movement during the drilling of a work piece held in vise 60.
When it is desired to remove the vise from table 38, this may be easily and rapidly accomplished. The operator simply grasps the knob 77 of rod 74 and pulls rod 74 and element 72 to the right (FIGURE 3) against spring 73 until the |U-shaped cut-out portion 78 has been withdrawn from groove 69 and is disengaged from pin 64. Vise 60, with pin 64 attached, may now be lifted and removed. When the operator releases his grip on knob 77, the force of spring 73 serves to return rod 74 and element 72 substantially to their original position in FIGURES 3 and 7.
The rest of vise 60 and its operation will now be described. A fiange element 80 is welded at 81 to base 61 of vise 60 and rotatably supports a horizontal lead-screw member 82. In order to prevent longitudinal movement of member 82 to the right, a snap ring 83 is mounted in an annular groove in member 82 and abuts against the inner surface of element 80. Abutting against the outer surface of element is an annular dial portion 84 of member 82 provided with suitable graduations for microcalibration. A reference mark is provided on element 80. Fixedly secured to the left-hand end portion of member 82 is a hand-wheel with an eccentric control handle 85.
In FIGURE 7 the bracket 90 embraces generally the assembly of those portions of vise 60 which are slideably adjustable in the X direction along the base 61 of vise 60. The base 61 has an elongated guide channel formed therein generally in the transverse cross-section shape of an inverted T by undercutting the base 61, as shown by the dotted lines in FIGURE 4, so that a pair of parallel elongated guide retainer portions 87 and 88 are formed as flanges along which the assembly 90 may be adjustably slided, the flat bottom surface of the channel being indicated at 89. The assembly 90 has a slideable bottom section 91 with a pair of runners or flanged leg portions 92 and 93 which are located respectively beneath the guide retainer portions 87 and 88. The assembly 90 also includes an upright portion 95 which is either integral with, or fixedly secured to, the bottom section 91. A sleeve or nut 96 is fixedly secured to portion 95 or section 91, as by welding, and is internally threaded to receive the threads of the lead-screw member 82. The asstembly 90 also includes an upright first jaw portion 97 which has an attached face element 98 and which is either integral with or fixedly secured to bottom section 91. Assembly 90 further includes a second jaw portion 99 which has a face element 100 and which is slideable in the X direction along the underneath flat portions of bottob section 91 and which is thus also slideable to the same degree with respect to portion 95 and the first jaw portion 97. From the above, it will be apparent that when handle is rotated in one direction, the rotation of lead screw 82 will cause assembly 90 to slide inwardly (advance) along the X axis, whereas rotation of handle 85 in the opposite direction will cause assembly to slide back outwardly (retract) along the X axis.
Means for providing further adjustment with precision along the X axis will now be described wherein jaw portions 97 and 99 are made relatively adjustable with respect to each other along the X axis. The upright portion has a horizontal bore 101 which is internally threaded to receive a screw 102 having a head 103 and an unthreaded tip end portion 104 which has an annular groove for receiving therein a snap ring 105. The movable jaw portion 99 has a horizontal bore 107 aligned with bore 101 along the X axis so as to receive the nnthreaded end 104 of screw 102. Bore 107 has an annular groove radially aligned with the groove in bore 101 so that the snap ring extends into both grooves to prevent relative longitudinal movement between portions 95 and 97 in the X direction but permitting rotational adjustment of screw 102 relative to portion 99. From the above, it will be apparent that when screw head 103 is rotated in one direction, for example with the aid of a wrench, this will cause screw 102 threadingly to advance through the fixed portion 95 and will thus push the movable jaw 99 inwardly closer to the set jaw 97 and will permit a work piece to be gripped tightly between plates 98 and 100. Similarly, rotation of screw 103 in the opposite direction will cause screw 103 to retract threadingly through portion 95 and hence will pull jaw 99 back away from jaw 97.
In the simplification in FIGURE 6, as compared to FIGURE 4, the means for slideably adjusting the assembly 90 in the X direction, as a unit, have been omitted. Jaw portion 99 is slideable toward fixed jaw 97 along the underneath flat portions of the fixed bottom section of the precision vise and is actuated by rotation of screw 102 cooperating with fixed portion 99 in the same manner as in FIGURE 4.
The novel indexing means and interchangeability feature will now be described with particular reference to FIGURES 3 and 5 wherein there is provided a rotatably adjustable precision vise 112 comprising a generally cylindrically main body 113 having its at bottom surface supported on the top surface 39 of the table 38 supported in turn by bracket 22 and having a central vertical hole 114 to accommodate the upper portions 66 and 67 of a locking pin 64 which is iixedly secured to body 113 and which cooperates with a locking control unit 71 as described in connection with FIGURES 3 and 7 above. Pin 64 also serves as a centering means for vise 112 on table 33. Body 113 has formed therein a series of equally spaced elongated guide channels 115 which extend radially inward toward the central hole 114 and pin 64 and which each have a transverse cross-section shape of an inverted T by undercutting body 113 as shown by the dotted lines in FIGURE 5 so that for each channel 115 there is formed as flanges a pair of substantially radial parallel elongated guide retainer portions 116 and 117. Along the flat bottom surface of some or all of the channels 115 there is slideably supported a manually adjusted jaw member 119 (three as shown) having an inner end for gripping the work piece and having under leg portions which are slideably retained and guided in the respective channels 115 beneath the body retainer portion 116 and 117.
Each jaw member 119 has a cut out or pinched lower portion and is threaded to receive a set-screw 121 which is directed obliquely through the jaw member to the top surface 122 of body 113 to provide a pinch eiect or clamping effect when the set screw is tightened after each member has been grasped by the operators hand and slided to the desired radial position in its channel.
In table 38 there is formed a single vertical indexing hole 123 which extends downward from the table surface 39. Hole 123 extends down throughout the body of table 38 and is oset from the center of the table surface 39 by a predetermined amount. For the rectilinearly adjustable work-holding devices of FIGURES 4 and 6 there was no requirement for rotation or indexing of the device and hence there the indexing mechanism served no function and was maintained inoperative, the hole 123, however, being useful as a reference point when desired. Within hole 123 there is located a vertically slideable or reciprocable indexing pin 124 to be described in detail shortly. Pin 124 may be vertically slideable within a vertical bushing (not shown) fitted within hole Formed in the bottom of body 113 of device 112 are a predetermined number of vertical cylindrical holes 125 having a diameter slightly greater than the diameter of the upper portion of pin 124. Holes 125 are located along a circular path and each is spaced the same radial distance from the center of hole 40 and locking pin 64 as is the indexing hole 123 and indexing pin 124. Each hole 125 extends upwardly from the bottom of body 113 a distance suflicient to accommodate the upper portion of pin 124 when it is in its active vertically extended position, as shown in FIGURLEI 3.
As shown in FIGURE 3, pin 124 may be generally cylindrical but is provided in its bottom part with an integral dig or detent portion 127 which extends horizontally outward away from central hole 40 and which has a flat upper surface 128. A compression coil spring 129 is received within a central vertical bore in the bottom part of pin 124. The bottom end of spring 129 is retained by a plate 130 secured to the bottom of table 38 as by a screw.
Rotatably supported within the flange portion 46 o-f table 38 is an indexing control member 132 including a generally cylindrical shaft 133 which has at its inner end a substantially semi-cylindrical eccentric portion 134. The outer end of member 132 is provided with a rotatable wheel with a handle 135. A suitable dial with gradua- 6 tions may be provided at the shank portion 136. When pin 124 is in its Vetrically extended position as shown in FIGURE 3, it is held in this position by spring 129 which also holds the flat top surface 128 of detent portion 127 in abutment against the iiat surface of eccentric portion 134 of shaft 133. In this position of FIGURE 3, the upper portion of pin 124 will be located in a desired one of the holes in body 113 so as to lock body 113 and device 112 in a desired irst angular position against any rotation. A set screw 137 is supported in the bottom of table 38, and its upper end may be brought into engagement with a groove or slot in shaft 133 to lock device 132 releasably in the angular position of FIGURE 3.
When it is desired to rotate body 113 to its next desired angular position for the next drilling operation, set screw 136 is loosened, and handle 135, and hence shaft 133, is rotated substantially 180 degrees, whereby eccentric portion 134 forces detent portion 127, and hence pin 124, downward against the action of spring 129 to its vertically retracted position, whereat the top of pin 124 is either below or flush with top surface 39 of table 38. The operator may. now grasp the edge of body 113 and rotate it to the next desired angular position whereat the next hole 123 will be aligned Vertically with pin 124. Handle 135 is then rotated another 180 degrees and, under the force of spring 129, pin 124 will be forced up into its position of FIGURE 3 and into such next hole 123 so that body 113 and device 112 may be locked into such next desired angular position and ready for drilling the work piece. The above procedure is repeated until the last desired angular position has been reached and the last drilling operation performed.
While this invention has been described with particular reference to the construction shown in the drawing, it is to be understood that such is not to be construed as imparting limitations upon the invention, which is best defined by the claims appended hereto.
