spring

84 and 86.

With reference to figure 5, will describe the hammering driving mechanism in detail below.Crank-pin 54 comprises the cylindrical link member 68 that is rigidly connected to part ball bearing 70.This part ball bearing 70 is slidably to be arranged in the cup shaped recess 72 that is formed in this crank disc 52 with rotatable mode.This cup shaped recess 72 has roughly hemisphere portion 72b of top cylindrical part 72a and bottom.This top cylindrical part 72a and lower hemispherical part 72b have same maximum gauge, and this maximum gauge is a bit larger tham the maximum gauge of part ball bearing 70.As a result, this part ball bearing 70 can be easy to insert in this cup shaped recess.This crank-pin 54 can pivot, rotate and slide vertically with respect to this crank disc, and this part ball bearing still remains in the scope of this cup shaped recess 72 simultaneously.

This cylindrical link member 68 slidably is arranged in the cylindrical bearing 56 that is formed in these hollow piston 58 ends.Force of sliding friction in this cup shaped recess 72 is a bit larger tham the force of sliding friction in this cylindrical bearing 56.Therefore, when this part ball bearing swung back and forth in this cup shaped recess, this cylindrical link member 68 slided up and down in this cylindrical bearing 56.Cylindrical shaft ring 74 is around the cylindrical link member 68 of this crank-pin 54, and can be against the lower position of these part ball bearing 70 upper surfaces with slide between the upper position of these cylindrical bearing 56 downsides.This axle collar spare 74 is a kind of prevent means, and it limits the motion of this part ball bearing 70 towards this cylindrical bearing 56, makes this crank-pin 54 and its part ball bearing 70 can not break away from fully and the engaging of this cup shaped recess 72.This cylindrical collar 74 can be installed on this crank-pin 54 after forming this crank disc 52 and crank-pin 54 assemblies.

With reference to figure 6 to Fig. 8, when this crank disc 52 along counter-clockwise direction when stand up position shown in Figure 6 rotates to position shown in Figure 7, can see that crank-pin 54 pushes away this hollow piston 58 forward and to lopsidedness.Because crank-pin 54 tilts, this cylindrical link member 68 in this cylindrical bearing 56 to lower slider.Because crank disc 52 rotates to the position of Fig. 8 from the position of Fig. 7, shift this hollow piston 58 onto its most forward position, this crank-pin 54 is in upright position again, and the cylindrical link member 68 of this crank-pin 54 upwards slides in this cylindrical bearing 56.Can see,, can prevent that this crank-pin 54 from moving too far and the engaging of disengaging and this crank disc 52 in this cylindrical bearing by this axle collar spare 74 last side engagement with downside and this part ball bearing 70 of this cylindrical bearing 56.Therefore, do not need interference engagement to engage with this crank disc, simplified the assembling of this driving mechanism so greatly to keep this crank-pin.

The hammer drill of second embodiment of the invention is shown in Fig. 9 and Figure 10, and the parts identical with the embodiment of Fig. 3 to Fig. 8 are with same but increase by 100 Reference numeral and represent.

Crank-pin 154 has the structure same with the embodiment of Fig. 3 to Fig. 8.But in the embodiment of Fig. 9 and Figure 10, this axle collar spare 176 is helical springs.Pad 178 is arranged between this axle collar helical spring 176 and this cylindrical bearing 156.This axle collar helical spring 176 has additional advantage, and promptly it is biased into the part ball bearing 170 of this crank-pin 154 with the cup shaped recess 172 of this crank disc 152 and engages, so this part ball bearing even can not partly move and break away from this crank disc 152.

The hammer drill of third embodiment of the invention is shown in Figure 11 to Figure 13, with the embodiment common means of Fig. 3 to Fig. 8 with same but increase by 200 Reference numeral and represent.

This transmission housing 280 is made of half clam shell of two durable plastic material or cast metal material.This two and half clam shell is clipped in O shape ring 282 between them and pushes this O shape ring.This transmission housing 280 is supported by first and second shock-absorbing

springs

284 and 286 in its back-end.This transmission housing 280 also is installed on the parallel orbit (not shown) that is arranged on these tool housing 222 the insides, makes that this transmission housing 280 can be along the direction of these main shaft 248 longitudinal axis with respect to these tool housing 222 front and back little distance of sliding.

Shock-absorbing

spring

284 and 286 spring constant are chosen to, when this hammer drill uses under normal operating condition, make this transmission housing 280 slide into its forward and backward between the limit of sports record roughly in the middle of point.This point is an equalization point, and the biasing force forward in this shock-absorbing spring 284 on this aspect and 286 equals to be placed on this hammer drill 220 on the workpiece and to be leaned against on this tool housing 222 and the power backward that produces on this transmission housing 280 by the user.

The front end of this transmission housing 280 has local tapering part 290 roughly, and it is resisted against and is formed on corresponding local tapering part 292 on this tool housing 222.This part tapering part 290 and 292 and the longitudinal axis of this main shaft 248 form an about angle of 15 °.The interface that is formed by this part tapering part 290 and 292 forms a retainer, and when this hammer drill 220 was in the inoperation state, this transmission housing 280 rested on this tool housing 222 at this retainer place.When this hammer drill 220 uses under normal operating condition, a gap appears between the surface of this part tapering part 290 and 292, this gap helps to reduce axially and oscillation crosswise, otherwise these vibration meetings directly pass to the user who holds this hammer drill 220 from the tool heads (not shown).Certainly, when this transmission housing overcomes the bias voltage of this shock-absorbing spring 284 and 286 when mobile backward, this gap can increase slightly.This help to reduce when the user applies bigger pressure forward to this hammer drill 220, may increase axially and oscillation crosswise.But this gap is enough little, and this hammer drill 220 and transmission housing 280 always can suitably be controlled by the interface between this part tapering part 290 and 292 by the user, and this interface keeps this transmission housing 280 and 222 alignment of this tool housing.

The hammer drill of fourth embodiment of the invention is shown in Figure 14, and the parts identical with the embodiment of Fig. 3 to Fig. 8 are with same but increase by 300 Reference numeral and represent.

This hammer drill 320 has tool housing 322.In this embodiment, this transmission housing 380 is made of three housing parts.The first roughly L shaped housing parts 380a holds the transmission mechanism except that the front end 348a of first and second gears 340,342 and main shaft 348.The bottom of this first housing parts 380a is installed on the second housing parts 380b, and the O shape ring 382a that wins is stuck between these two parts, enters to prevent dust and foul.This second housing parts 380b remains on the bottom of this transmission mechanism the inside of this first housing parts 380a and holds this first and two gear 340,342.This second housing parts 380b has motor delivery outlet 390, motor output shaft 336 is entered in this transmission housing the inside, and make pinion 338 can drive first and second gears 340,342 of this transmission mechanism.The 3rd housing parts 380c is installed in the front end of this first housing parts 380a, makes the 2nd O shape ring 382b be stuck between these two parts to prevent that dust and foul from entering.The 3rd housing parts 380c remains on first housing parts 380a the inside with the front portion of this transmission mechanism and holds the front end 348a of main shaft.

This first roughly L shaped housing parts 380a makes transmission mechanism can be assembled in this first housing parts 380a the inside from its two ends fully.For example hollow piston and spindle assemblies can insert the front end of this first drive shell body portion 380a, this first housing parts 380a can rotate 90 ° then, and each gear and mode shift mechanism can and fall into correct position by the bottom insertion, and this main shaft 348 and hollow piston 358 are engaged.This second and the 3rd drive

shell body portion

380b and 380c can be installed on this first drive shell body portion 380a then, so that cover the openend of this first drive shell body portion 380a.

This first drive shell body portion 380a can be as the standard stand (the hammering driving mechanism, rotary drive mechanism and the mode shift mechanism that comprise standard) of some kinds of power tools, and the second and the 3rd drive

shell body portion

380b and 380c can change, with motor and the main shaft that adapts to different size.

The hammer drill of fifth embodiment of the invention has the transmission housing that is shown in Figure 15 to Figure 20, and the parts identical with the embodiment of Fig. 3 to Fig. 8 are with same but increase by 400 Reference numeral and represent.

With reference to Figure 15 and Figure 16, the transmission housing is made of the right side half clam shell 421a and left half clam shell 421b, and this right side half clam shell 421a and left half clam shell 421b are formed with injection moulding by senior strong plastics.Each

half clam shell

421a, 421b have a plurality of screwed hole 423a, the 423b that is suitable for admitting the screw (not shown) respectively, make

half clam shell

421a, 421b to combine, and seal the transmission housing of this transmission mechanism with formation.

This two housing sections is suitable for keeping all members of this transmission mechanism, and various recesses are molded on half clam shell so that provide support for these members.For example, the shape of the first driven

wheel recess

427a, 427b is made and is suitable for supporting this first driven wheel 40.Motor support part 425a and 425b are suitable for supporting and local top of sealing this motor 34.

This transmission housing slidably is installed on the pair of guide rails (not shown) in this tool housing 22.Because the inside and user that this transmission housing is arranged on this tool housing 22 can't see, therefore can be with this transmission housing of senior strong constructed in plastic material.Such material is because its unengaging color and quality are unsuitable for being used for the outside of power tool usually.Senior strong plastics have vibration and the noise damping property better than metal usually.The ribs (not shown) can be molded in the plastics to strengthen the intensity of this transmission housing.

With reference to Figure 15 to Figure 20, each

half clam shell

421a and 421b comprise overflow ducts 429a and the 429b that forms.This half clam shell also comprises corresponding ball distance ring support recesses 431a and 431b, and it is suitable for keeping ball distance ring 49, with supports main shaft 48.

Specifically referring to figs. 18 to Figure 20, this

half clam shell

421a and 421b cooperate the first transmission shell chamber 433 and the second transmission shell chamber 435 that is arranged on ball distance ring 499 either sides with formation.This first transmission shell chamber 433 and the second transmission shell chamber 435 interconnect by channel 429a and 429b.The rear end of this hollow piston 458, cylindrical bearing 456, crank-pin 454 and crank disc 452 all are arranged in this first transmission shell chamber 433.The major part of this main shaft 448 and overload spring 458 are arranged in this second transmission shell chamber 435.The part of the main shaft 448 in this second transmission shell chamber has the passage 448a of circumference array.This passage 448a makes this second transmission shell chamber 435 and can be communicated with between the main shaft chamber 448b of these main shaft 448 the insides and this

hollow piston

458 and 460 fronts of raming.

In the hammering pattern, this hollow piston 458 causes reciprocating motion by this crank disc 452.When this hollow piston 458 moved in this first transmission shell chamber 433, because the arrival of this hollow piston reduces the volume of this first transmission shell chamber, thereby the air pressure in this first transmission shell chamber 433 increased.Simultaneously, this hollow piston 458 and ram and 460 shift out this main shaft 448.Because this hollow piston and the volume that makes this main shaft chamber that leaves of raming increase, thereby this causes that the air pressure among the 448b of this main shaft chamber reduces.This second transmission shell chamber 435 is communicated with main shaft chamber 448b through passage 448a, and therefore the air pressure in the second transmission shell chamber 435 also reduces.This air pressure difference is balanced owing to air flows to into this second transmission shell chamber 435 and this main shaft chamber 448b by

overflow ducts

429a and 429b from the first transmission shell chamber 433.

On the contrary, when this hollow piston 458 entered this main shaft 448, because the volume of this first transmission shell chamber 433 is owing to leaving of this hollow piston increases, therefore the air pressure of the first transmission shell chamber 433 reduced.Simultaneously, because the volume of this main shaft chamber is owing to this hollow piston and the arrival of raming reduce, this causes that the air pressure among the 448b of main shaft chamber increases.As mentioned above, this second transmission shell chamber 435 is communicated with main shaft chamber 448b via passage 448a, so the air pressure in this second transmission shell chamber 435 also increases.This first transmission shell chamber 433 is balanced this air pressure difference because air refluxes into from this second transmission shell chamber 435 and main shaft chamber 448b by this

overflow ducts

429a and 429b.

As the result that the air among overflow ducts 429a and the 429b moves back and forth and circulates, during hollow piston 58 moved back and forth, the compression of air was eliminated, or significantly reduces.Therefore the hammering driving mechanism can do work owing to the air that compression retains or off-energy hardly.The efficient of motor and the battery life of hammer drill have been increased like this.

The hammer drill of sixth embodiment of the invention has the hammering driving mechanism that is shown in Figure 24 to Figure 26, and the parts identical with the embodiment of Fig. 3 to Fig. 8 are with same but increase by 500 Reference numeral and represent.

With reference to Figure 24 to Figure 26, hollow piston 558 comprises cylindrical bearing 556, and it is suitable for holding crank-pin 554 and moves back and forth in main shaft 548 the insides so that cause this hollow piston 558.The (not shown) of raming slidably is arranged on this hollow piston 558 the insides, because the air spring effect that these hollow piston 558 the insides produce makes this ram and produces the hammering action.A plurality of vertical oncus 559 are formed on the external peripheral surface of hollow piston 558 of substantial cylindrical, and are long-pending with the contact surface between the main shaft 548 that reduces this hollow piston 558 and substantial cylindrical.The groove 561 of a plurality of convex curve shapes is formed in the gap between this oncus.This groove 561 defines the diameter slightly little cylinder of a diameter than these hollow piston 558 external peripheral surfaces.Therefore, this groove 561 is enough shallow, to hold the lubricant of normal viscosity during the whole normal running of this hammering driving mechanism.
