AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The Drywall Cutting Apparatus is a tool that can safely repair drywall by using a knife-saw and spikes that attach to the outside of the wall. It also has a groove on the edge of its cover with a gasket sponge to prevent debris from flying out. The knife-saw can be angled outward to create a circular ready patch. The invention provides a speedy and safe way to repair drywall using this tool, and it can also be used to repair damaged electrical components or plastic pipes. A square ready patch can also be used instead of the circular ready patch if the Drywall Cutting Apparatus is not available.

Problems solved by technology

However, walls and ceilings constructed out of drywall have a significant flaw.
They are prone to damage, and holes can be formed from sudden impact.
Drywall is often damaged in spots that were previously used for the installation of different mounts such as those used for TVs, from the installation of shelves, from contact with objects such as door handles, or simply due to vandalism.
However, a significant disadvantage of this method is the difficulty of using a template.
This method of wall repair takes a lot of time and is therefore, of little use.
Some patches are so complex in their construction that they are unable to reach commercial recognition.
However, the opening usually needs to be formed on the damaged surface, precisely the spot where the cutting and repairing apparatus needs to be secured according to Antonio Armando Murua Martinez's method.

Embodiment Construction

[0030]The preferred embodiment of the Drywall Cutting Apparatus is shown in FIG. 1.

[0031]The main element of the Drywall Cutting Apparatus is the knife-saw (11), which is attached by way of a metal rod (10). The rod contains a depth limiter (12), which regulates the depth of the cut into the drywall so that all electrical components, plastic piping, wall studs (20), and anything else that is hidden and tucked inside and or behind the wall is saved from damage.

[0032]The second important element of the Drywall Cutting Apparatus is the cover (13). The cover is constructed out of metal, but may be made from other material, and its edges have spikes installed (16) that are driven into the wall (18) with a hammer (17) by repeated hits on the cover (13). These spikes secure the Drywall Cutting Apparatus upon entering the wall (21), guaranteeing safe work, while the damaged part of the wall (19) remains inside the cover (13). The gasket sponge (15) is found on the outside, on the edge of th...

Abstract

The Drywall Cutting Apparatus contains a circular knife-saw with an angled cut designed for the formation of a circular opening in a damaged wall or for the formation of a Circular Ready Patch component in a sheet of drywall. The Circular Ready Patch is a round drywall patch with an angled edge glued onto fiberglass mesh of a larger diameter than the patch. Its objective is to repair damaged walls in cooperation with the Drywall Cutting Apparatus. Kits of several different sizes containing the Drywall Cutting Apparatus, patches, taping knife, and spackling paste are created for walls with varying degrees of damage.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims priority to U.S. provisional patent application 62 / 018,583 filed 28 Jun. 2014, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.FIELD OF INVENTION[0002]The invention pertains to drywall, specifically to the drilling of openings in damaged drywall, and the succeeding repair.STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT[0003]Not ApplicableREFERENCE TO SEQUENCE LISTING, A TABLE, OR A COMPUTER PROGRAM LISTING COMPACT DISC APPENDIX[0004]Not ApplicableBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0005]Many companies use drywall for walls and ceilings during the process of construction. However, walls and ceilings constructed out of drywall have a significant flaw. They are prone to damage, and holes can be formed from sudden impact.[0006]There are many available methods for the repair of walls. These methods include various kinds of plastics, various kinds of paper, complex devices with metal nets, bolts,...
