4 Claims, 4 Drawing Figures 1 POWER TOOL SAFETY LOCK DEVICE FOR MANUAL SWITCH WITH SWITCll-I ACTUATOR INTERLOCK STRUCTURE DEFEATEDLY RELEASED BY CHUCK KEY The subject invention relates to a safety arrangement for a power tool particularly one that incorporates a chuck key for tightening and loosening a tool gripping chuck formed as the powered output of the unit. The main object of this invention to preclude the operation of the tool at all times other than when the key for operating the chuck is positioned in a particular manner relative to the tool, thereby minimizing the likelihood of injury to the operator caused by accidental starting of the tool if and when the operator were fitting the tool in the chuck or afterwards if the key might have been left in the chuck. The invention provides a normally spring biased obstruction that interfers with the operation of the on-off switch member unless the safety key is inserted into a particular opening on the tool and manipulated to shift the obstruction from the interfering position, thereafter allowing switch operation without restriction.
This invention and the advantages thereof will be more fully understood and'appreciated after referring to the following drawing, wherein:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the control plate and casing of a power tool where an on-off switch is shown as well as the particular key receiving slot and safety switch arrangement;
FIG. 2 is a front elevational view of the arrangement shown in FIG. 1 as seen from line 2-2 generally, except with part of the tool casing broken away for clarity of disclosure;
FIG. 3 is an elevational view as seen generally from line 33 in FIG. 2, again with part of the tool casing broken away; and
FIG. 4 is a sectional view as seen generally from line 4-4 in FIG. 2.
Referring to the drawing, a housing is shown which can be of most any power tool, but which is shown as the power drill press disclosed in my patent application Ser. No.- 308,416 entitled Variable Speed Drill Press, filed Nov. 21, 1972. The housing 10 supports an on-off switch 12 including an actuating member 14 supported to move between two positions corresponding to the on and off conditions of the power tool. The tool has a powered output chuck l5, and key' 16 is used to tighten and loosen the chuck to hold the cutting bit (not shown) as is well known. The key has a pinion shaft 18 including a pinion thereon adapted to be set relative to the chuck, and a handle 22 is connected crosswise to the shaft 18 to allow the application of a twisting force on the shaft without the need of any auxiliary tools.
Located in the side wall of the housing 10 is a slot 24 having an enlarged central portion 26 adapted to receive the pinion shaft 16 and of length at the ends 28 to receive the handle 22. A housing stop 29 lined up with the pinion shaft limits axial insertion of the key, and further a housing wall 30 adjacent the rear side of the top end of the slot precludes rotation of the inserted key in the clockwise direction (relative to FIGS. 1 or 3) and housing wall 32 adjacent the enlarged central opening 26 and extended also partially along the slot opposite the wall 30 requires that the key be fully inserted into slot and centered slightly counterclockwise (relative to FIG. 2) before it can be rotated in the counterclockwise direction (relative to FIGS. 1 or 3).
A leaf spring 34 is mounted as by screw 36 to the housing and is cantilevered in adjacent but spaced parallel proximity to the wall 30 and furthermore has a slanted lead on cam edge 38 which in the normal or unflexed position of the spring (phantom in FIG. 2) is positioned beyond the extension of the wall 32. Consequently upon insertion of the key and proper canting and rotation of same, the top part of the key handle rides onto the cam member 38 and then over the inward faces of the spring and thus deflects the spring as indicated in FIG. 2.
In the illustration, the actuating member 14 pivots about pin 44 and has a rear face 46 which is adapted to move toward and away from a fixed wall 48 of the switch housing. The free end of the leaf spring has a tab or projection 42 which is adapted normally to fit between the switch wall and the rear face 46 of the actuating member 14 when the switch is in the off position, and when so fitted therebehind, precludes the pivoting of the switch member about its pin 44. As noted above, upon insertion of the key 16 into the key slot 24 and key rotation to ride the upper handle member over the cam edge 38 of the spring 34, the projection 42 is displaced in a direction from behind the rear face 46 of the actuating member and consequently the actuating member can be shifted to its opposite position as desired. The lower handle portion of the key rides onto a small inwardly raised and notched detent face 50 formed on the tool housing as the key is rotated. This is effective both to back cant the key slightly (clockwise as seen in FIG. 2) for increases spring deflection to remove it completely from interference with the actuating member 14 and to hold the secured key secure to preclude accidental shifting caused by vibration when the power tool is in operation.
I claim;

A safety arrangement for a power tool having a control switch and an operating member therefor that is shifted between spaced positions corresponding to the on and 'off conditions respectively of the power tool, the combination of a key member and the tool casing having a slot adjacent the switch which .slot is adapted to receive a portion of the key member, casing wall means located adjacent the slot allowing rotation of the inserted key member in one direction only, a leaf spring supported by the casing with a cantilevered portion located adjacent the positioned key portion and further having a tab formed on the spring and located adjacent the operation member, the spring tab operating under the normal bias of the spring when no key is in the unit to interfere with the operating member thereby precluding shifting of same from the off position to the on position, and the key portion operating when positioned in the slot and upon key rotation to displace the spring tab from interference with the operating member thereby allowing shifting of the operating member for desired operation of the power tool.
2. A power tool safety arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the tool member has a tool holding chuck and wherein the key member has transversely disposed pinion and handle portions for tightening and looseningthe chuck, and wherein the key handle portion is adapted to be inserted into the slot with the key pinion portion then yet being exposed outside of the casing.
