Description
- 1. Field of Invention
- The present invention relates to a tool and, more particularly, to an efficient, effective and inexpensive method for making a bit of a tool.
- 2. Related Prior Art
- Referring
FIGS. 1 and 2 , there is shown a conventional method for making a bit of a tool. At first, a circular rod is provided. Secondly, the circular rod is turned into a hexagonal rod by drawing. The width of the hexagonal rod is smaller than the diameter of the circular rod. Thirdly, a section with a predetermined length is cut from the hexagonal rod. The section cut from the hexagonal rod will be referred to as the “blank” for clarity in the following description. Fourthly, achamfer 13 andnotches 12 are made on the blank by cutting. Fifthly, acircular section 14 and a tapered section are made on the blank by cutting. The hexagonal section of the blank made with thechamfer 13 and thenotches 12 is referred to as the “connective section 11.” Sixthly, four cutouts are made in the circular and tapered sections of the blank by cutting, thus forming a cruciform section of the bit. The cruciform section of the bit is referred to as the “driving section 15.” In use, theconnective section 11 of the bit is inserted in a corresponding cavity defined in a shaft of a manual or electric tool. - There are however several problems with the conventional method for making the bit. At first, it requires and wastes a lot of material to make the bit because the
connective section 11 of the bit is solid and because thedriving section 15 of the bit are formed by cutting an excessive amount of material from the blank. Secondly, there is room for improvement regarding the yield. The conventional method includes quite a few steps and the chance of an error occurring at any of the steps is high. Thus, the yield is affected. Thirdly, there is room for improvement regarding the efficiency. It takes a long period of time to execute the conventional method since it includes many steps. - The present invention is therefore intended to obviate or at least alleviate the problems encountered in prior art.
- It is the primary objective of the present invention to provide an efficient, effective and inexpensive method for making a bit of a tool.
- To achieve the foregoing objectives, the method includes the steps of providing a blank, forging, cutting and pressing. The size of the blank is determined according to the size of the bit. By the forging, the blank is made with a connective section and a neck. The connective section is formed with a polygonal profile, a first chamfer at an end thereof and a second chamfer at another end thereof. The neck extends from the polygonal connective section and includes ribs separated from one another by grooves. By the cutting, the neck is made with a tapered section. By the pressing, the tapered section of the neck is turned into a driving section of the bit to reduce the length of the tapered section of the neck but increase the width of the tapered section of the blank.
- Other objectives, advantages and features of the present invention will be apparent from the following description referring to the attached drawings.
- The present invention will be described via detailed illustration of several embodiments versus the prior art referring to the drawings wherein:
