Combination tool
First Claim
1. A combination tool for providing a bore in a workpiece and for introducing a fastener, preferably a self-threading screw, into said bore, said tool comprisinga. a cylindrical core having at one end a stud shaft adapted to be driven by a driving means and at the other end a central mounting member for a drill;
- b. a first sleeve having at one end a tightening member, said first sleeve surrounding said core and being rotatable and axially displaceable relatively thereto;
c. a second sleeve surrouding said first sleeve and being rotatable and axially displaceable thereto; and
d. coupling means which are axially displaceable together with said first sleeve, said coupling means being so arranged thati. in a first end position of said first sleeve in which said drill protrudes through and beyond said tightening members, and in a first end position of said second sleeve to connect said two sleeves for mutual axial displacement;
ii. upon such mutual axial displacement of said two sleeves into a second end position of said first sleeve in which said drill is completely retracted inside of said tightening member to release said connection between said two sleeves and to engage said core for unrotatable as well as axially undisplaceable connection of said first sleeve to said core; and
iii. upon continued axial displacement of said second sleeve relatively to said first sleeve into a second end position of said second sleeve to lock said coupling means in said engagement.

Abstract
The present invention concerns a combination tool for providing a bore in a workpiece and for introducing a fastener, especially a self-threading screw, into said bore. Said combination tool comprises a cylindrical core one end of which is provided with a stub shaft meant to be connected to a drive means and the other end of which carries a mounting member for a drill. A sleeve surrounds said core and carries a tightening member for said screw. Said sleeve is axially displaceable along said core from a first end position in which said drill protrudes through and outside of said tightening member into a second end position in which the drill is completely retracted inside of same. In said first end position the sleeve is rotatable relative to said core, but in said second end position it is stationary thereto both with respect to rotation and to axial displacement.
