Problems solved by technology

If the tap breaks off in the hole, it may be very difficult or even impossible to remove the broken piece
[0005] Additionally, traditional hand-driven taps rotate at irregular speeds around the hole, which can cause the tap to break off
[0006] Therefore, the use of traditional hand taps is time consuming and requires skilled
[0007] Powered tapping devices are known - such as taught by US Patent No. 7,565,935, however they are specialized and expensive
It is also known to use a drill press or vertical milling machine, however those methods are also expensive, not easily transported, and are cumbersome to use on certain projects

Embodiment Construction

[0020] A thread tapping device generally designated by reference numeral 10 will now be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6 .

[0021] current technology:

[0022] Referring to FIG. 1 and labeled "PRIOR ART" there is illustrated a conventional hand tap generally indicated by the numeral 100 . The conventional hand tap 100 has a "t" tap wrench 110 that is manually operated.

[0023] Structure and relationship of parts:

[0024] refer to figure 2 , illustrates the threading device of the present invention, generally designated by the numeral 10 . The threading device 10 has an elongated body 12 with a first end 14 and a second end 16 . The thread cutting portion 18 is disposed towards the first end 14 . Figure 6 An end section 20 shown for fitting to a drive tool 22 is provided at the second end 16 . The shank portion 24 is arranged between the cutting portion 18 and the end section 20 .

[0025] refer again figure 2 , the thread cutting portion 18 includes a helic...

Abstract

A tapping device for use with a variety of standard drivers. The tapping device has an elongate body having a first end and a second end. A thread cutting portion is provided toward the first end, an end section for fitting to a drive tool is provided at the second end, and a shank portion is deposed between the cutting portion and the end section. A flared stop is provided on the shank adjacent to the end section. The end section being a hex head which will operated with standard drive tool such as impact wrenches or traditional sockets and wrenches.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a thread tapping device and a method of using the thread tapping device. Background technique [0002] A tap is used to cut threads on the inside surface of a hole. The process of cutting threads with a tap is called tapping. Hand taps, usually manually operated, have been used to create threaded holes. [0003] To use a tap, the tap is placed in a pre-drilled hole and rotated. As the tap rotates, it cuts threads into the interior of the hole. As it spins, it slices off small metal particles known as swarf. The tap is provided with several chip flutes that allow cut off chips to escape from the hole. If the flutes become clogged with debris, the tap will overtighten and possibly break off. The rotation needs to be reversed periodically to break up debris formed during the cutting process to prevent jamming or "plugging" that could cause snapping. [0004] Therefore, considerable skill is required when using hand taps to ...
