ABSTRACT:
A tapping accessory for use with the chuck of a rotary-operated machine such as a drill press or lathe in which a tap tool is detachably secured to one end of a body, and a first guide element is on the other end of the body. A second guide element is telescopically related and rotatively mounted to the first guide element on a longitudinal axis and is adapted to be gripped in the chuck of the rotary-operated machine. A handle is detachably secured to the body between the tap-connecting assembly and the guide elements for turning the body and tap tool manually about the axis of the guide elements. More particularly, the first and second guide elements are at the same side of the handle, while the tap-connecting assembly is at the opposite side of the handle. In one embodiment, the first guide element is a socket in the said other end of the body, while the second guide element is a spindle slidably and rotatively received in the socket. The handle is located in a transverse bore at the bottom of the socket, the spindle engaging the handle to determine the retracted position of the spindle in the socket. More particularly, in the one embodiment, the handle extends through either of a pair of transverse bores so that when located in one transverse bore located between the socket and the tap-connecting assembly, the device is adapted for turning the tap tool about the axis of the spindle and socket, and when located in the other transverse bore located through the socket adjacent the said other body end, the device is adapted for use as a manual tap wrench.
