     FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
       [0002]    This invention relates to devices to shield a construction device. More particularly, the invention relates to an attachment device that concentrates debris, chips and dust produced from a drilling device and deposits it into a secure collection machine in order to avoid polluting the surrounding environment. 
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0003]    A hammer drill is known by various other names such as a rotary hammer, roto-drill or hammering drill. This type of drill has a rotary action interacting with a hammering action. The hammering action provides a hammer strike that quickly pulverizes a brittle surface and permits faster drilling with less effort. These drills are typically electric or battery powered, whilst larger units use electro-pneumatic technology to provide sufficient power. 
         [0004]    Another type of drill is called a hole saw with a mandrel; it has a central rod with a central circle arranged perpendicularly to the rod; at the edge of this central circle is the main cutting device of the drill. As its name implies, the hole saw uses a circularly arranged set of teeth to cut out a circular shape in a ceiling or other structure. Once opened, these orifices can serve for the hanging of lights or other useful devices. 
         [0005]    These type of drills when used on concrete structures or similar surfaces generate a great deal of dust and chips filling the surrounding work area with a cloud of debris. This byproduct of a simple construction procedure can severely impact the workspace environment leading to a laborious cleanup. Additionally, persons or animals nearby his type of drill can inhale this material as it lingers in the air about the drill. 
         [0006]    Accordingly, these is a need to overcome the aforementioned deficiencies.

It is also to be understood that the specific devices and processes illustrated in the attached drawings, and described in the following specification, are simply exemplary embodiments of the inventive concepts defined in the appended claims. Hence, specific dimensions and other physical characteristics relating to the embodiments disclosed herein are not to be considered as limiting, unless the claims expressly state otherwise. 
         [0039]    The Dust Free Drill Attachment System and Device  100  is shown disassembled in  FIG. 1 . The system comprises several components including: a collapsible cylinder  105 , a contoured dust protector  110 , a drilling machine  120 , and a vacuum device  125  connected by a hose  126  with ribs  127 . A drilling device  120  such as a hammer drill is brought into the orifice  119  on the right side of the dust protector  110 . The drill bit attached to the drill is placed through a circular opening on the left hand side extended cylinder  113 . From there the drill bit enters the cavity in the center of the collapsible cylinder  105  that has been placed in the extended cylinder  113  and out through the collapsible end  106  of the cylinder  105 . 
         [0040]    The collapsible cylinder  105  has a straight cylinder portion  107  and a collapsible accordion style portion  106  that have been integrated together as one plastic component. The collapsible portion  106  of collapsible cylinder  105  may be enlarged to cover varying sizes of drill bits and shrunken to cover smaller bits. The straight cylinder portion  107  of the collapsible cylinder  105  is inserted into the circular opening of the extended cylinder  113  and held there by physical contact of the two parts. The collapsible cylinder  105  is an optional component and depending upon the size of the drill it can used if necessary or set aside if not necessary. Thus, when a user begins to create chips, debris and dust, these can be caught in the dust protector  110  and or the optional collapsible cylinder  105  and sent through the hose  126  to the vacuum unit  125  attached to the hose  126  at the bottom of the dust protector  110 . 
         [0041]    The Dust Free Attachment Device itself comprises the collapsible cylinder  105  and the contoured dust protector  110 . As discussed above, the hose  126  is attached at the bottom of the dust protector  110  that provides three possible attachment points and sizes. These attachment points are formed from a circular contour  116  at the bottom portion of the dust protector  110  that extends downwards from the main portion of the dust protector  121  forming a cylinder  117  having a second one  118  there within; thus, two cylindrical protrusions extend downwards from the main body  121  of the dust protector. 
         [0042]    The inner circumference of cylindrical protrusion  117  forms one attachment point and size; the outer circumference of cylindrical protrusion  118  forms a second attachment point and size whilst the inner circumference of cylindrical protrusion  118  forms a third attachment point and size. In this manner, various hoses can be attached to the dust protector providing manufacturer flexibility. It can be readily appreciated that the only entry point into the main portion  121  of the dust protector  110  is through the cylinder  118  as having an opening for materials between the cylinders  117  and  118  would permit the flow of materials into the environment in the event that a smaller hose is used. 
         [0043]    Thus, there is an annulus shaped portion forming the bottom of the inner portion of the dust protector  110 . The hole in this annulus is for the attachment at the inner edges of the annulus circumference to cylinder  118 . The circular exterior portion of this annulus meets the inside of contour material  116  and the bottom of the side-laying rest of the dust protector  110  that is shaped in a laying-wine bottle type configuration. The left side of the dust protector has the neck shape cylinder  113  of the wine bottle that integrates with two conical shaped surfaces  114 ,  115  that form a top and bottom integral surface making the front sides of the bottle shape. These slowly extend backwards making the main body of the dust protector into a long cylindrical shape  121  that meets the bottom cylindrical portion  117  at contour line  116 . At the back end of the dust protector  110  is an orifice  121  such that a drill can be inserted therethrough. 
         [0044]    Finally, a curved light flash attachment  111  extends upwards above the thickest portion of the bottle shape. This is integrally connected with the rest of the body of the wine bottle shape; a small flat vertical portion is integrally connected with a semicircular portion forming the body of the flashlight attachment  111 . This half circular portion  111  forms an attachment or holding point for a flashlight or similar device. Finally, item illustrates a front view showing a collapsible cylinder  105  and a dust free protector  110  housing a drill that has been inserted therein. 
         [0045]    A more particular implementation is described as follows. Generally the Dust-Free 
         [0046]    Drill Attachment (DFDA), as disclosed herein, provides people with an easy and safe way to capture dust and debris while drilling, sawing and or chipping. This innovative product can comprise a set of standard drill attachment parts, hole saw attachment parts, and hammer drill attachment parts. The standard drill attachment parts can include different collapsible tube length 114″ connection tube for a vacuum hose, and two collapsible tubes. The hole saw attachment parts can include two pieces 3/4 clear articulating half bucket-shaped pieces of rigid plastic in 3 sizes, 2 ½″,4 ½″, and 6 ¾″: 1 ¼″vacuum tube stemming from the bottom of the bucket”; and the two halves  340  snap together around item  113 . The hammer drill attachment parts may include the collapsible tubes in different lengths. These fittings can attach to the main body which attaches to all leading manufacturers&#39; drills or chipping hammers. Once attached to the desired tool, people may then attach the opposite end to any standard wet/dry vacuum. These attachments do not impede on any of the drills mechanics, allowing the user access to the drill&#39;s gear reduction function whenever necessary. The exact specifications may vary upon manufacturing. 
         [0047]      FIG. 2  illustrates a front view of the Dust Free attachment System and Device showing a collapsible cylinder and a dust free protector housing a drill that has been inserted therein. In this view a completed system view is presented having the drill, dust free protector and collapsible cylinder inserted in the front therein. 
         [0048]    A second embodiment is shown in  FIGS. 3-4 . There is shown a drill, a vacuum attached to a dust protector  110  having a circular saw dust protector secondary attachment  300 ; the drill has a circular saw  350  connected through the secondary dust protector attachment  300  and on through the primary dust protector  110  and on to the drill. The secondary dust protector  300  is made from two components, namely, a first half moon  320  and a second half moon  360 ; alternatively, a ¼ and ¾ moon concept. The two of these are held together by a tension, draw, straight loop latch or similar device  340 . This latch&#39;s  340  two components are each adhesively attached externally to respective half central cylinders  340  made from plastic such as pvc; these half cylinders are larger then the extended cylinder  113  in the primary dust protector  110 . They provide a convenient pathway for the drill rod to extend through and permit the circular saw  350  to sit within secondary dust protector  300  in between the half moons  320 ,  360 . Each half moon has a top portion  330  that is integral with the bottom of the cylinder halves  340  and parallel to the circular shaped cavity therein; they also have a perpendicular portion  370  extending leftwards in the figure that forms a shield wall running circularly at the edge of the half moons  320 ,  360 . 
         [0049]    Finally, it should be apparent that the device is entirely made of suitable plastic materials or similar materials. The above-described embodiments are merely exemplary illustrations of implementations set forth for a clear understanding of the principles of the invention. Many variations, combinations, modifications or equivalents may be substituted for elements thereof without departing from the scope of the invention. Therefore, it is intended that the invention not be limited to the particular embodiments disclosed, but that the invention will include all the embodiments falling within the scope of the appended claims.
