Depth stop for a drilling machine
First Claim
1. On a drilling machine including a casing, a depth stop mounted on said casing, said depth stop comprising an axially displaceable rod, wherein the improvement comprises a clamping lever having a bore therethrough with said rod extending through the bore, said lever being elongated and extending transversely of the axial direction of the bore therethrough, said lever having a clamping surface thereon and being pivotally displaceable about the axis of the bore therethrough for movement of the clamping surface into and out of contact with the casing so that with the clamping surface bearing on said casing, said rod is held against axial displacement, said clamping surface extending circumferentially of the axis of the bore and being arranged eccentrically of the axis, and a pair of bearing lugs secured to said casing and spaced apart in the axial direction of said rod, said lever being pivotally supported on said lugs.

Abstract
A depth stop is mounted on the casing of a drilling machine and includes a clamping lever with a bore through which an elongated rod extends. The rod acts as the stop. Lugs attached to the casing pivotally support the clamping lever. The lever has a clamping surface which engages the surface of the casing in the clamped position. The clamping surface extends circumferentially of the axis of the bore in the lever and is arranged eccentrically relative to the axis.
