Power drill-saw with simultaneous rotation and reciprocation action

摘要

The invention disclosed herein is a simple but versatile sawing device for effectively and efficiently cutting or sawing hard solid materials. A driving mechanism consisting of three slidably-associated elements converts a rotational force into a dual rotatory/reciprocatory motion. A cam key may be disengaged to permit the device to be used to drill into a surface. Also disclosed is a novel cutting-rod element that is a hard metal rod with cutting teeth of a unique shape on its surface.
