Abstract

A drill attachment for engagement and actuation of a drill apparatus having a bifurcated frame defining a first shaft and a second shaft operatively engaged to the drill apparatus at first and second engagement points is disclosed. A handle is pivotally engaged to the first shaft and is operatively coupled to a trigger actuator located along the first shaft through a trigger cable operatively engaged to a trigger actuator the distal end of the first shat that permits remote actuation of the drill apparatus. The trigger actuator includes a pivotable rocking arm having an actuator pad in selective engagement with the drill trigger such that actuation of the handle by the user pivots the rocking arm in a manner that causes the actuator pad to engage or disengage the drill trigger when operating the drill apparatus. The drill attachment is operatively engaged to the drill apparatus through an adapter component having a proximal portion engaged to the drill attachment and a distal portion defining a generally curved configuration adapted to engage the handle of any conventional drill apparatus.

A knee pad may extend from the first shaft to provide the user a contact surface for applying pressure in a lateral direction in order to abut the drill apparatus to the drill surface.
