Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

The adjustable length adaptor and multi-device with the same according to the present invention will be described in details with reference to the accompanying drawings.



FIG. 1 is a disassembled perspective view illustrating a adjustable length adaptor according to the present invention.


As shown in FIG. 1, the adaptor according to the present invention is coupled to a turning tool which has a driving motor therein, with a rotary shaft 110 being protruded from the turning tool 100 and rotating during the operation of the driving motor at one side and comprises a body part 200, a varying part 300, a driving pulley 400, a driven pulley 500 and a belt 600.


The body part 200 comprises, at its one side, a through hole 211 allowing the rotary shaft 110 of the turning tool 100 to pass through the same, and with the aid of the above construction further comprises an engaging member 210 coupled to one side of the turning tool, and a support member 220 formed at the other side of the engaging member 210.


The varying part 300 has one side which is coupled to the support member 220 in a withdrawing-possible way, with the rotary shaft 310 coupled with an exchangeable work piece being formed at the other side.


The driving pulley 400 is disposed at the top of the body part 200, and is coupled to the rotary shaft 110 of the turning tool 100.


The driven pulley 500 is coupled to the rotary shaft 310 of the varying part 300.


The belt 600 is connected between the driving pulley 400 and the driven pulley 500, thus rotating the driven pulley 500 when the rotary shaft 110 protruded from the turning tool 100 rotates.


The turning tool 100 has, at its one side, a rotary shaft 110 rotating by means of the driving motor.


The turning tool 100 might be formed of a cutting tool such as a grinder, a circular driven saw or something, and a drilling machine such as a drill or something; however in the present invention the grinder among the turning tools will be described as a representative for better understanding of the present invention.


The body part 200 is coupled to the turning tool and supports the varying part 300.


The body part 200 is formed of an engaging member 210 and an extension member 220.


The engaging member 210 has, at its one side, a through hole 211 allowing the rotary shaft 110 of the turning tool 100 to pass and is consequently coupled to the turning tool 100, and the extension member 220 is formed at the other side of the engaging member 210.


The engaging part 213 is formed at a side surface of the through hole 211 and is coupled to the rotation part 111 of the turning tool 100 with the rotary shaft 110.


The support member 220 is to be coupled with the varying part 300 and is extended from the other side of the body part 200.


The varying part 300 is coupled in such a way to be withdrawn from the other side of the support member 220.


At one side of the varying part 300 is formed an insertion rod 320 which is coupled to the support member 220 in a withdrawing-possible way, with the rotary shaft 320 being disposed at the other side.


As shown in FIG. 1, the driving pulley 400 is coupled to the rotary shaft 110 of the turning tool 100, and the driven pulley 500 is coupled to the rotary shaft 310 of the varying part 300.


The belt 600 is connected between the driving pulley 400 and the driven pulley 500. So, the belt 600 serves to transfer the rotational force from the rotary shaft 110 of the turning tool 100 to the driven pulley 500 as the driving motor of the turning tool 100 is driven.


A work member 800 formed of a lumber cutter, a stone cutter, a steel cutter, a cleaning brush or a gloss brush is secured to the rotary shaft 310 to which the driven pulley 500 is connected.


So, as the rotary shaft 310 of the varying part 300 rotates together with the driven pulley 500 as the driven pulley 500 rotates, so the work member 800 secured to the rotary shaft 310 starts rotating.


As shown in FIG. 1, a protection cover 330 is detachably installed at one side of the varying part 300, thus preventing a work piece from flying during the rotation of the work member 800.


Here, the protection cover 330 serves to prevent the pieces cut off the work piece from flying toward a user during a processing work of lumber, stone or steel.


As shown in FIG. 1, the protection cover 330 can be detachably coupled at one side surface of the insertion rod 320 by means of a fixture. In addition, the protection cover 330 might be detachably installed at a lower or lateral side of a portion where the rotary shaft 310 of the varying part 300 is installed.


In the present embodiment of the present invention, the protection cover 330 is formed in a semi-circular shape; however its configuration is not limited thereto, namely, the protection cover 330 might be formed in a certain shape as long as it can prevent flying of a work piece during the rotation of the work member 800.


The varying part and the support member will be described in more details with reference to FIG. 2.


As shown in FIG. 2, an insertion channel 221 is formed at one side of the support member 220 in a concave shape.


An insertion rod 320 is formed at one side of the varying part 300 in a certain shape matching with the shape of the insertion channel 221 and is coupled to the insertion channel 221 in a withdrawing-possible way.


The insertion channel 221 serves to allow the insertion rod 320 to be inserted into the same and is formed inwardly from one side of the support member 220.


As shown in FIG. 2, the insertion channel 221 has a circular cross section, however might have a polygonal cross section.


When the insertion channel 221 with a circular cross section is formed, the insertion rod 320 formed at the insertion channel 221 is formed in a cylindrical column shape, and when the insertion channel 221 has a polygonal cross section, the insertion rod 320 formed at the insertion channel 221 has a polygonal cross section.


When the insertion channel 221 has a circular cross section, the insertion rod 320 designed to be inserted into the insertion channel 221 might be inserted into the insertion channel 221 and can rotate in the interior of the insertion channel 221. For this reason, it is preferred that the insertion channel 221 and the insertion rod 320 are made to have polygonal cross sections.


An engaging hole 222 communicating with the insertion channel 221 might be formed at the support member 220, thus allowing the fixture 222a to be engaged. Here, a plurality of engaging grooves 321 might be formed at one side surface of the insertion rod 320, thus allowing the end portion of the fixture 222a coupled to the engaging hole 222 to be inserted into the same.


Here, the fixture 222a is directed to preventing the insertion rod 320 from escaping from the insertion channel 221 during work, and as shown in FIG. 2, it is formed at an upper surface of the support member 220 and is coupled to the engaging hole 222 communicating with the insertion channel 221.


As shown in FIG. 2, the engaging hole 222 might be formed at an upper surface of the support member 220. An engaging hole 222 might be provided in multiple numbers to more stably fit the insertion rod 320 to the support member 220.


An engaging groove 321 is formed at one side surface of the insertion rod 320, thus allowing an end portion of the fixture 222a coupled to the engaging hole 222 to be inserted into the same.


As shown in FIG. 2, the engaging groove 321 is provided in multiple numbers at the insertion rod 320 at intervals. So, when the insertion rod 320 is inserted into the insertion channel 221, it is possible to select the position of the engaging groove 321 into which the fixture 222a is inserted, thus adjusting the length of the insertion rod 320.


As shown in FIG. 2, one insertion channel 221 into which the insertion rod 320 is inserted can be formed solely at the support member 220, and a plurality of insertion channels 221 might be installed at the support member 220.


When the insertion channels 221 are provided in multiple numbers, it is possible to advantageously change the position where the insertion rod 320 is installed. Even when one among the multiple insertion channels 221 gets damaged, it is possible to install the insertion rod 320 by changing the position of the insertion channel 221.


As shown in FIG. 1, the adaptor according to the present invention is characterized in that a first handle engaging member 212 to which the handle 700 is engaged is formed at one side of the engaging member 210.


A second handle engaging member 223 is formed at one side of the support member 220, thus selectively securing the handle 700 to the first handle engaging member 212 or the second handle engaging member 223.


The first handle engaging member 212 and the second handle engaging member 223 allow the user to work while changing the handles depending on the work condition where the user works using a adjustable length adaptor.


In the event that the handle 700 secured to the second handle engaging member 223 among the handle engaging members is installed in parallel with the rotary shaft 310 of the varying part 300, it is advantageous for a user to work with the work member facing a central portion of a user's body while holding the turning tool with one hand.


It is preferred that the second handle engaging member 223 is formed in such a way that the handle engaged is in parallel with the rotary shaft of the varying part 300.


As shown in FIG. 1, a safety cover 213 is formed at one side of the engaging member 210 in such a way to prevent the belt connected to the driving pulley 400 from being exposed to the outside.


The safety cover 213 is basically directed to preventing safety accidents which might occur as the belt 600 connected between the driving pulley 400 and the driven pulley 500 is exposed in the direction of the user. It is preferred that the safety cover 213 is formed in a C-shape corresponding to part of the shape of the driving pulley 400 coupled to the rotary shaft 110 of the turning tool 100.


A plurality of protrusions 610 might be formed at an inner surface of the belt 600 at intervals according to the present invention, and the protrusions 410 and 510 into which the protrusions 610 are inserted are formed at the surface coming into contact with the belt 600 of the driving pulley 400 and the driven pulley 500.



FIG. 3 is a disassembled perspective view illustrating a driving pulley 400 and a driven pulley 500 which are adapted to a adjustable length adaptor according to an embodiment of the present invention, and the same reference numerals of the same elements are together recited in FIG. 3 to avoid repeated descriptions.


The pulley of FIG. 3 will be described with reference to the driving pulley 400. The driving pulley 400 is formed of a hub 420, first belt contact members 430 and 530, second belt contact members 440 and 540, elastic members 450 and 550, cover members 460 and 560 and tensional force adjusting members 460 and 560.


Here the hub 420 is formed in a circular plate shape, with an engaging shaft 421 being formed at the upper surface of the same, thus allowing the hub 420 to be engaged to the rotary shaft 110 of the turning tool.


The first belt contact members 430 and 530 are engaged to the upper surface of the hub 420 at intervals.


The second belt contact members 440 and 540 are spaced apart from the engaging shafts 421 and 521 and are slidably disposed between the first belt contact members 430 and 530.


The elastic members 450 and 550 are engaged between the second belt contact members 440 and 540 and the hubs 420 and 520.


The tensional force adjusting members 460 and 560 are engaged to the tops of the first belt contact members 430 and 530 and are coupled to the ring shaped cover members 460 and 560 and the engaging shafts 421 and 521, thus pressurizing the second belt contact members 440 and 540.


The hub 420 is coupled to the rotary shaft and is formed in a circular plate shape as shown in FIG. 4 showing the cross section of FIG. 3. A cylindrical fixing member is formed at a lower side of the hub 420 for an engagement to the rotary shaft.

The first belt contact member 430 between the first belt contact member 430 and the second belt contact member 440 is fixed at the upper surface of the hub 420, and the second belt contact member 440 is movably engaged at the upper surface of the hub 420.


The surface facing the engaging shaft 421 of the second belt contact member 440, as shown in FIG. 4, has a certain inclination angle toward the lower side of the hub 420. At this time, the elastic member 450 is engaged between the hub 420 and the second belt contact member 440.


The cover member 460 is coupled to the upper surface of the first belt contact member 440 in a circular shape, and the engaging shaft 421 is protruded from an upper, central portion of the cover member 460.


The tensional force adjusting member 470 coming into contact with the second belt contact member 440 is engaged to the engaging shaft 421 protruded from an upper, central portion of the cover member 460.


So, the second belt contact member 440 pressurizes the second belt contact member 440 and moves toward the outside of the engaging shaft 421 in the event that the tensional force adjusting member 470 is coupled to a lower side of the engaging shaft 421.


On the contrary, in the event that the tensional force adjusting member 470 is coupled to an upper side of the engaging shaft 421, the second belt contact member 440 moves in the direction of the engaging shaft 421 by means of the elastic member 450.


As the second belt contact member 440 moves, the surface of the driving pulley 400 coming into contact with the belt 600 increases or decreases. So, the tensional force of the belt 600 connected between the driving pulley 400 and the driven pulley 500 can be adjusted depending on the moving direction and the position of the second belt contact member 440.


As shown in FIG. 3, a longitudinal hole 422 coming into contact with the second belt contact member 440 is formed at the hub 420.
