Abstract:
A drilling aid system which comprises a body with a first cavity, a shaft mounted to be able to rotate within the first cavity, a slider which has a proximal end mounted to be able to move in translation within the first cavity, where the slider has a second cavity which extends the first cavity, a collar that is able to move in translation on the shaft, a first compression spring having a first stiffness and pressing against the collar and against the proximal end of the slider, and a second compression spring having a second stiffness greater than the first stiffness, and pressing against the collar and against the proximal end of the body. A system of this kind makes it possible to make the user perceive that the end of the drilling operation is nigh and that therefore the force applied to the drill should be reduced.
