Tools holder
A tools holder is provided with a base including a rear fastening member configured to secure to a mounting groove of a lathe, and a front groove member, and at least one hole extending from an outer surface to the groove member; a blade including a front cutting member and a rear tenon fitted into the groove member; and at least one fastener each driven through one of the at least one hole to urge against the tenon for fastening the base and the blade. The tools holder is capable of increasing length by assembling at least one interconnecting member between the base and the blade. Further, the assembly is secured due to complimentary engagement of any two adjacent components and the provision of threaded fasteners.
1. A tools holder comprising:
a base including a rear fastening member configured to secure to a mounting groove of a lathe, and a single first front groove member, and at least one first hole extending from an outer surface to the first front groove member;
a blade including a front cutting member and a single first rear tenon;
at least one interconnecting member including a single second rear tenon and a single second front groove member; and
at least one first fastener driven through the at least one first hole to urge against on the first or second rear tenon for fastening the base and the blade,
wherein the at least one interconnecting member is optionally connected between the base and the blade; when the base is directly connected to the blade, the first rear tenon is fitted into the first front groove member; when the at least one interconnecting member is applied, the second rear tenon is fitted into the first front groove, and the first rear tenon is fitted into the second front groove, wherein a dimension of the first front groove is identical to that of the second front groove, and a dimension of the first rear tenon is identical to that of the second rear tenon;
wherein in a cross-sectional view along a longitudinal direction of the tools holder, the first front groove member has a first elongated slot formed between a first upper elongated portion and a first lower elongated portion, the second front groove member has a second elongated slot formed between a second upper elongated portion and a second lower elongated portion, and the rear fastening member has a third elongated slot formed between a third upper elongated portion and a third lower elongated portion;
wherein the first elongated slot, the second elongated slot and the third elongated slot are arranged along a longitudinal axis of the tools holder.
2. The tools holder of claim 1 , wherein the at least one interconnecting member further comprises at least one second hole extending from an outer surface to the second front groove member thereof; the at least one first fastener drives through the at least one first hole of the base to urge against the second rear tenon of the at least one interconnecting member for fastening the base and the at least one interconnecting member together; and at least one second fastener drives through the at least one second hole of the at least one interconnecting member to urge against the first rear tenon of the blade for fastening the at least one interconnecting member and the blade together.
3. The tools holder of claim 2 , wherein the first front groove member of the base is an annular groove.
4. The tools holder of claim 2 , wherein the at least one first hole of the base is a threaded hole, and the at least one second hole of the at least one interconnecting member is a threaded hole, the at least one first fastener is a threaded fastener, and the at least one second fastener is a threaded fastener.
5. The tools holder of claim 2 , wherein the first rear tenon of the blade is shaped to fit into the first front groove member of the base.
6. The tools holder of claim 2 , wherein the second rear tenon of the at least one interconnecting member is shaped to fit into the first front groove member of the base.
