Background

Hand-held power tools, such as electric drills, for drilling or screwing a workpiece (e.g., a wooden or concrete board, etc.) for loosening or tightening a screw have a drive shaft with a collet mounted thereon for holding a tool bit. According to different functions of the hand-held power tool, tool heads with different specifications and types (such as a screwdriver head for screwing screws, a flat drill capable of drilling on a wood board, a percussion drill capable of drilling on a cement board, a twist drill capable of drilling on a steel plate and the like) can be selected, when the tool heads are replaced, the clamping heads are firstly required to be opened to release the tool heads originally clamped on the clamping heads, and then the new tool heads are inserted and then locked in the clamping heads. The chuck generally includes a chuck body coupled to a spindle of the power tool, a plurality of jaws movably disposed on the chuck body and movable in an axial direction of the chuck body, and an adjusting member (e.g., a nut sleeve) disposed outside the chuck body and threadedly coupled to the jaws. The adjusting piece is externally connected with a mode adjusting operating piece, under the normal condition, a user can manually rotate the mode adjusting operating piece to enable the adjusting piece to rotate relative to the stationary output shaft and the chuck core body, and the rotation of the adjusting piece enables the clamping jaw matched with the adjusting piece to move in a reciprocating mode relative to the chuck core body along a clamping groove which is obliquely arranged at a certain angle on the axis of the chuck core body, so that the clamping or loosening of the working component is realized. In order to meet the working requirement, the clamping force of the chuck on the tool head is often high, manual operation is not tight and is laborious, and the requirement of the clamping force is difficult to meet.

In the using process, particularly in the mode switching process, an operator needs to hold the handle part by one hand and perform starting control by the held hand, and needs to rotate the adjusting piece by the other hand when the mode switching is needed.

In other words, referring to fig. 3 and 4, the movement of the clamping jaw 152 along the clamping groove is movable between a front end position, in which the clamping jaw 152 is closed, and a rear end position, in which the clamping jaw 152 is fully opened, when the clamping jaw 152 is moved to the rear end position, a projection of the clamping jaw 152 in the axial direction at least partially overlaps a projection of the output planet 1581 in the axial direction. More preferably, in order to shorten the axial length of the body 151 as much as possible to shorten the axial length of the power tool, the distance from the end surface of the body 151 near the front end cap to the front end cap is L3 (not shown) when the jaws 152 are moved to the rear end position, the distance from the portion of the jaws near the front end cap to the front end cap is L4 (not shown) and L3 ≦ L4, in other words, in order to shorten the axial length of the body as much as possible to shorten the axial length of the power tool, the rear end portion of the jaws 152 is axially more rearward than the rear end portion of the body when the jaws 152 are moved to the rear end position (i.e., the position where the jaws are fully opened) or the rear end portion of the jaws 152 is axially flush with the rear end portion of the body.

Referring to fig. 6, in this embodiment, the output device 15 further includes an output pin 1584 fixed on the body 151, and the output planet 1581 is rotatably disposed on the output pin 1584.

To reduce friction between the end of the output planet 1581 and the first body 1501a or the second body 151b, a washer 1337 (see fig. 1 and 7) is provided between the output planet 1581 and the

first bodies

1501a and 151b, and preferably, the washer 1337 is a metal washer. It should be noted that the output pin 1584 may also be fixed to the second body 1335, or one end of the output pin 1584 is fixed to the first body 1501a, and the other end is fixed to the second body 151 b. It is understood that in other embodiments, the structure of the output device 15 may be in other forms, and will not be described herein.

In this embodiment, the screwdriver further comprises a mode selection mechanism for operatively switching the screwdriver between at least a drilling mode (hereinafter referred to as "drill mode") and a chuck adjustment mode (hereinafter referred to as "auto chuck mode"), wherein when the screwdriver is in the drill mode, the power of the motor 12 drives the body 151, the clamping jaws 152, the adjustment member, and the tool bit (screwdriver bit) to rotate together through the driving shaft to perform work; when the screwdriver is in auto chuck mode, one of the nut sleeve 154 and the body 151 can be rotated relative to the other by the motor 12 to move the plurality of jaws 152 relative to the body 151 for a closing or opening action, preferably without rotation of the body 151 and jaws 152 located within the body 151, and with rotation of the nut sleeve 154 relative to the jaws 152 to cause the jaws 152 to close or open.

An output sun gear 1583 is located on a second planet carrier drive shaft 1325 which extends outside the hollow support sleeve 1124 and meshes with output planet gears 1581 provided on the body 151 to transmit the rotation of the second stage planetary gear train 132 to the output means 15. In this embodiment, the output ring gear 1332 has a first operating position axially close to the electric machine and a second operating position remote from the electric machine, see fig. 4-5, when the screwdriver is in the drill mode and the output ring gear 1582 is in the first operating position, the output ring gear 1582 is non-rotatably fixed relative to the housing, i.e. the output ring gear 1582 is non-rotatably fixed relative to the housing, and the output ring gear 1582 meshes with the output planet gears 1581. Therefore, the output sun gear 1583 transmits rotation to the output planet gears 1581, and the output planet gears 1581 drive the body 151, the clamping jaws and the tool head located in the body 151 to rotate under the action of the fixed output gear 1582.

Referring to fig. 3-4, when the output ring gear 1582 is in the second operating position when the screwdriver is in the auto chuck mode, the output ring gear 1582 is still in mesh with the third planet gears 1331 but is rotatable relative to the housing, i.e. when the output ring gear 1582 is in the second operating position, the output planet gears 1581 transmit rotation to the output ring gear 1582, causing the output ring gear 1582 to rotate relative to the housing. In the second operating position, the output ring gear 1582 is simultaneously able to transmit rotation to the nut sleeve 154 to rotate the nut sleeve 154 relative to the jaws 152, enabling the jaws 152 to perform opening or closing actions as desired.

As can be seen from the above description, in the auto chuck mode, when the output ring gear 1582 is located at the second working position, the output planet 1581 transmits the rotation to the output ring gear 1582 and further transmits the rotation to the nut sleeve 154 through the output ring gear 1582 so as to rotate the nut sleeve 154 relative to the body 151 (the clamping jaw 152) which does not rotate at this time, so that the clamping jaw 152 performs the opening or closing action as required. Preferably, the present embodiment enables the nut sleeve 154 to rotate relative to the body 151 and the clamping jaws 152 disposed in the body 151 by selectively locking the body 151 to the case, and preferably, the present embodiment enables the body 151 to be fixed relative to the case by selectively locking the first body 1501a to the case.

Referring to fig. 1, to realize that the first body 1501a is fixed relative to the housing in the auto chuck mode, the mode selection mechanism includes a locking member for fixing the first body 1501a, the locking member is fixed circumferentially and non-rotatably to the housing at all times, but is axially movable relative to the housing to switch between a first locking position and a second locking position, preferably, in this embodiment, the locking member is moved axially to realize that the locking member is switched between the first locking position and the second locking position, and the first locking position is close to the first body 1501a and the second locking position is far from the first body 1501 a. Referring to fig. 3 and 4, when the screwdriver is in auto chuck mode, the locking member is in a first locking position, the locking member circumferentially non-rotatably locking the first body 1501a to the housing. Referring to fig. 4-5, when in the drill mode, the locking element is located at the second locking position, the locking element releases the circumferential locking of the first body 1501a, and the output planet 1581 can drive the body 151 and the clamping jaw 152 located in the body 151 to rotate together. It should be noted that, as can be seen from the above description, in this embodiment, since the output ring gear 1582 is in the first working position which is not rotatable relative to the housing in the drill mode, the mode selection mechanism further includes a structure, such as an internal ring gear lock, for fixing the output ring gear 1582 to the housing in the first working position, and in this embodiment, in order to simplify the structure inside the screwdriver, the locking element can also be used for circumferentially fixing the output ring gear 1582, that is, in this embodiment, the locking element simultaneously functions as an internal ring gear lock, that is, the locking element includes the body lock 134 for locking the body and the internal ring gear lock 181 for locking the output ring gear 1582.

The structure of the locking element and the operation principle of how the locking element functions as the body lock 134 and the inner ring gear lock (not numbered) in the drill mode and the auto chuck mode, respectively, will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. Referring to fig. 4-5, in the drill mode, the output annulus 1582 is in the first operating position when the locking member is in the second lock position. At this time, the locking element (the body lock 134) releases the circumferential locking of the first body 1501a, and is connected with the output ring gear 1582 and fixes the output ring gear 1582 to the machine housing in a non-rotatable manner, so that the output planet gear 1581 can drive the body 151 and the clamping jaws 152 to rotate, that is, the body lock 134 is separated from the first body 1501a, and the inner ring gear lock is connected with the output ring gear 1582. Preferably, the internal gear lock comprises a through groove 1340 arranged on the inner wall of the locking element, the output gear 1582 is provided with gear locking teeth 1582a matched with the through groove 1340, the through groove 1340 of the body lock 134 and the gear locking teeth 1582a located at the end of the output gear 1582 realize circumferential fixation of the output gear 1582, that is, the gear locking teeth 1582a of the output gear 1582 are inserted into the corresponding axial through groove 1340 to realize fixation of the output gear. At this time, the output sun gear 1583 transmits torque to the third planet gear 1331, and under the action of the output ring gear 1582, the output planet gear 1581 revolves around the output sun gear 1583 to drive the body 151 and the clamping jaws 152 to rotate, and the tool head is driven by the clamping jaws 152 to work. It is understood that the body lock and the fourth locking member coupled to the body lock may be in other forms in other embodiments, and the description thereof is omitted.

When the screwdriver is switched from the drill mode to the auto chuck mode by the mode selection mechanism, the locking element is moved (moved backward) from the second lock position to the first lock position in a direction approaching the first body 1501a to lock the first body 1501a, and the output ring gear 1582 is moved (moved forward) from the first working position to the second working position in a direction away from the first body 1501a and approaching the nut sleeve 154 to disengage from the inner ring gear lock and rotationally connect with the nut sleeve 154. Preferably, the first body 1501a is provided with a first locking member coupled to the body lock 134, in this embodiment, the first locking member is a lock block 1510 disposed on the first body 1501a, and the body lock 134 is provided with a second locking member coupled to the first locking member, preferably, the second locking member is the through groove 1340, that is, the locking member (the body lock 134) is coupled to the lock block 1510 through the through groove 1340 to lock the first body 1501 a. Therefore, in the auto chuck mode, when the locking element is located at the first locking position, the output gear ring 1582 is located at the second working position, at this time, the locking element circumferentially locks the body 151 and the clamping jaw 152, and the output gear ring 1582 drives the nut sleeve 154 to rotate relative to the clamping jaw 152.

Referring to fig. 1 and 6, in this embodiment, in the auto chuck mode, in order to ensure that the clamping jaws 152 are no longer clamped or opened after the clamping jaws 152 have clamped the tool head or the clamping jaws 152 have been released, i.e., the nut sleeve 154 is no longer torqued to the clamping jaws 152, a clutch mechanism 20 is provided between the output ring gear 1582 and the nut sleeve 154 for disconnecting the transmission of torque between the output ring gear 1582 and the nut sleeve 154 after the clamping jaws 152 have clamped or fully opened. The clutch mechanism 20 comprises a first clutch part 21 which can be connected in a rotatable manner to the output ring gear 1582, and a second clutch part 22 which is connected in a rotatable manner to the nut sleeve 154 and can be moved axially relative to the nut sleeve 154, wherein, when the clamping jaws 152 are clamped or completely opened, the second clutch part 22 is moved axially forward, the first clutch part 21 is disengaged from the second clutch part 22, and the output ring gear 1582 no longer transmits a torque to the nut sleeve 154. Preferably, the first clutch 21 is a snap ring sleeved on the periphery of the body 151, wherein one end of the snap ring near the output gear 1582 is provided with meshing teeth 211 matched with the internal teeth of the output gear 1582 to realize torque transmission, and one end of the snap ring near the second clutch 22 is provided with clutch moving end teeth 212 used for performing torque transmission with the second clutch 22. The second clutch member 22 is provided with a static clutch end tooth 222 cooperating with the dynamic clutch end tooth 212, and the front end of the second clutch member 22 is provided with a resilient clutch member 23, so that when the clamping jaw 152 is clamped or completely opened, i.e. the torque force between the first clutch member 21 and the second clutch member 22 is increased to a predetermined value, the second clutch member 22 compresses the resilient clutch member 23 to disengage the dynamic clutch end tooth 212 and the static clutch end tooth 222. After the second clutch member 22 is disengaged from the first clutch member 21, the second clutch member 22 is moved backward by the clutch elastic member 23, that is, automatically reset and pushes the second clutch member 22 to a position where the clutch moving end teeth 212 and the clutch stationary end teeth 222 are engaged. Therefore, when the jaws 152 are clamped or fully opened, the clutch mechanism 20 performs repeated automatic tripping operations.

Referring to fig. 1, the clutch movable end teeth 212 and the clutch stationary end teeth 222 include guide slopes (not shown) by which the second clutch member 22 can compress the clutch elastic member 23 to separate the first clutch member 21 and the second clutch member 22. It should be noted that, when the clamping jaws 152 are clamped or completely opened, the guiding inclined surface can make the first clutch member 21 have a tendency to move toward the motor, that is, the first clutch member 21 is subjected to an axial force of backward movement, in order to prevent the first clutch member 21 from moving backward to press the output ring gear 1582 (it should be noted that, when the output ring gear 1582 is subjected to an axial force from the first clutch member during tripping, that is, the clutch force, the output ring gear 1582 can also give an axial force to the mode selecting mechanism for driving the output ring gear 1582 to move, for example, an axial force is given to the operating member for driving the output ring gear 1582 to move, so that the operating member is subjected to a force), the screwdriver 10 further includes an axial abutting member axially abutting against the first clutch member 21. Preferably, the axial abutment is a third flange 1514 (see fig. 7) provided on the body 151.

As can be seen from the above description of the operating principle of the electric screwdriver in the drill mode and the auto chuck mode, when in the chuck adjusting mode, the body 151 is fixedly disposed relative to the housing, the

clutch members

21, 22 can transmit the rotating power of the motor to the adjusting member so that the adjusting member can rotate relative to the body, and when the rotating force transmitted between the first clutch member and the second clutch member reaches a predetermined value (i.e. after the chuck is clamped or opened in place), at least one of the

clutch members

21, 22 moves against the acting force of the clutch elastic member 23 to disconnect the first clutch member 21 and the second clutch member 22, thereby disconnecting the transmission mechanism and the adjusting member in the rotating direction; when in the drilling mode, the

clutch members

21 and 22 cannot transmit the rotation power of the motor to the adjusting member, and the body 151 is connected to the motor in the rotation direction and drives the clamping jaw 152 and the adjusting member to rotate so as to drive the tool head to perform work. Therefore, whether the electric screwdriver is in the drill mode or the auto chuck mode, the first clutch member 21 and the second clutch member 22 are always engaged under the action of the clutch elastic member 23, and only after the clamping jaws are completely opened or closed, the second clutch member 22 overcomes the action force of the clutch elastic member 23 and is separated from the first clutch member. Therefore, the degree of engagement between the first clutch member 21 and the second clutch member and the disengagement force are mainly affected by the clutch elastic member 23, and the magnitude of the clutch "disengagement" force is relatively constant, that is, the magnitude of the predetermined rotational force for separating the first clutch member and the second clutch member is relatively stable.

The operating member 30 of the mode selection mechanism and the structure associated with the operating member 30 in the present embodiment will be further described below with reference to fig. 8 to 23. As can be seen from the above description of the "tripping" principle of the clutch mechanism 20 in the auto chuck mode, the clutch static end teeth 222 and the clutch movable end teeth 212 repeatedly engage and disengage under the action of the clutch elastic member 23, which generates a loud noise, and the noise is very loud especially at high rotation speeds. In the present embodiment, the arrangement of the slide slot in the mode selection mechanism for movement of the operating member 30 enables the screwdriver to be in the automatic mode only in the low speed mode. In this case, the operation member 30 corresponds to a mode selection member of the mode selection mechanism, and the hand-held power tool is switched between the drill mode and the auto chuck mode by performing a toggle operation on the operation member 30. Referring to fig. 8-13, the slide way has a first slide way 311 for switching the operating member between the high-speed position and the low-speed position in the drill operating mode, and when the operating member 30 slides between the high-speed position and the low-speed position, the operating member 30 can drive the second ring gear 1322 to move between the first shift position and the second shift position. The gate also comprises a second gate 312 for switching to auto-chuck mode, the second gate 312 being connected to a corresponding low speed position in the first gate 311, such that the actuating element 30 can only be moved along the second gate 312 in the low speed position to switch from park mode to auto-chuck mode. Preferably, the second sliding groove 312 is two segments, and is respectively disposed at both sides of the first sliding groove 311 to respectively realize the clamping groove 3121 for clamping the clamping jaw 152 and the opening groove 3122 for releasing the clamping jaw in the auto chuck mode. Preferably, the first sliding slot 311 extends along the axial direction of the motor shaft 121 on the housing, and the second sliding slots 32 are distributed on both sides of the first sliding slot 311 and are substantially perpendicular to the first sliding slot 311. Thus, the chute is generally a "T" slot arrangement on the housing.

Preferably, the slider 42 is disposed intermediate the free ends of the shift wire 41, and the shift wire 41 is pivotally connected to the gearbox housing intermediate the slider 42 and the free ends. In the present embodiment, the operating member 30 and the sliding member 42 can rotate relatively, that is, the operating member 30 can rotate relative to the sliding member 42 to switch the screwdriver from the drill mode to the auto chuck mode. Preferably, the sliding member 42 is provided with an arc-shaped slot 421 along the circumferential direction, the front end of the operating member 30 is provided with a guide block 300 matched with the arc-shaped slot, and when the operating member 30 is switched between the high-speed position and the low-speed position, the guide block 300 drives the sliding member 42 to move axially through the arc-shaped slot 421; when the operating member is rotated in the low-speed position, i.e., the operating member 30 moves along the second sliding slot in the low-speed position, the guide block 300 can rotate in the arc-shaped slot 421 to rotate the operating member 30 relative to the sliding member 42.

Preferably, in this embodiment, the switching ring 43 is further provided with an opening trigger 433 and a locking trigger 434, and after the output gear 1582 and the locking element move to a predetermined position, the opening trigger 433 triggers the motor reversing switch 435, so that the motor drives the nut sleeve 154 to rotate in a predetermined direction to perform an opening action of the clamping jaw 152. Referring to fig. 10-12 and 19-21, when the operating member 30 is switched from the position shown in fig. 10 to the position shown in fig. 12, that is, from the park mode low-speed state to the auto chuck mode with the clamping jaws 152 closed, the switching ring 43, after rotating to the right position, triggers the motor reversing switch 435 through the locking trigger 434 connected thereto, so that the motor drives the nut sleeve 154 to rotate in a predetermined direction to perform the closing action of the clamping jaws 152, and the principle is substantially the same as that when the clamping jaws 152 are opened, and will not be described again.

Referring to fig. 23, preferably, the first push rod assembly 451 includes a first link 4513 connected to a first switching pin 4514 and is connected to the locking member through the first link 4513 to move the locking member axially forward and backward. Preferably, the first push rod assembly 451 further comprises a first self-aligning element 4510, wherein the first self-aligning element 4510 comprises a first push rod 4511 connected to a first switching pin 4514, and a first elastic element 4512 disposed at a front end of the first push rod 4511 and between the first push rod 4511 and the first connecting rod 4513. When the first switching pin 4514 moves forward, it can push the first link 4513 to move forward by means of the first push rod 4511 and the first elastic member 4512 located at the front end of the first push rod 4511. Preferably, the first link 4513 extends with a first stopper 4518 (see fig. 1) in front of the first elastic element 4512 in a radial direction, and the first elastic element 4512 abuts against the first stopper 4518. The first link 4513 is provided with an axially extending link slot 4515 (see fig. 20), and the first switching pin 4514 penetrates through the link slot 4515, so that the first switching pin 4514 can drive the first link 4513 to move backward when moving backward under the action of the first guide slot 4321, and provide a space for the first switching pin 4514 to move when the first switching pin 4514 moves forward. The second push rod assembly 452 includes a second connecting rod 4523 connected to a second switching pin 4524, and is connected to the output ring gear 1582 through the second connecting rod 4523 to drive the output ring gear 1582 to move back and forth axially.

Referring to fig. 22, preferably, the second push rod assembly 452 further includes a second self-aligning element 4520, wherein the second self-aligning element 4520 includes a first push rod 4511 connected to a second switching pin 4524, and a second elastic element 4522 disposed at a front end of the second push rod 4521 and between the second push rod 4521 and the second link 4523. When the second switching pin 4524 moves forward, it can push the second link 4523 to move forward by the second push rod 4521 and the second elastic element 4522 at the front end of the second push rod 4521. The second link 4523 extends radially in front of the second elastic element 4522 to form a second stopper 4528 (see fig. 1), and the second elastic element 4522 abuts against the second stopper 4528. The second link 4523 is provided with a second link slot 4525 (see fig. 1) extending axially, and the second switching pin shaft passes through the second link slot 4525, so that the second switching pin shaft 4524 can drive the second link 4523 to move backwards when moving backwards under the action of the second guide slot 4322, and provide a space for the second switching pin shaft 4524 to move forwards when the second switching pin shaft 4524 moves forwards. In the embodiment, when the locking element moves forwards and is meshed with the output gear ring 1582 through the arrangement of the first self-aligning element 4510 on the first push rod assembly 451, the locking element and the output gear ring 1582 are smoothly meshed in place through the first self-aligning element 4510 after the output gear ring 1582 rotates for a certain angle. It will be appreciated that when the second push rod assembly 452 is provided with the second self-aligning member 4520, so that the line output ring gear 1582 moves forward to engage with the engaging teeth 211 of the first clutch 21, the output ring gear 1582 is smoothly engaged with the engaging teeth 211 by the second self-aligning member 4520 after the output ring gear 1582 rotates by a certain angle.

Referring to fig. 18-21, fig. 18 and 19 are state diagrams of the corresponding relationship between the switching ring 43 and the switching pin in the drill mode, and in fig. 18, the screwdriver is in the high speed state, and in fig. 19, the screwdriver is in the low speed state, fig. 20 and 21 are state diagrams of the corresponding relationship between the switching ring 43 and the switching pin in the autochuck mode, that is, fig. 19 is a state diagram corresponding to fig. 10, fig. 20 is a state diagram corresponding to fig. 8, and fig. 21 is a state diagram corresponding to fig. 12. When the operating member 30 is switched from fig. 10 to fig. 8, the switching ring 43 is rotated from the state shown in fig. 19 to the state shown in fig. 20 according to the arrow B direction in fig. 19, at this time, the first guide groove 4321 drives the first push rod 4511 to move forward through the first switching pin 4514, when the first push rod 4511 moves forward, the first push rod 4511 compresses the first elastic element 4512 and presses the first link 4513 through the first elastic element 4512 to drive the locking element to move forward through the first link 4513, meanwhile, the second guide groove 4322 drives the second push rod 4521 to move backward through the second switching pin 4524, and the second push rod 4521 or the second switching pin 4524 drives the second link 4523 to move backward. When the switching ring 43 is rotated from the state shown in fig. 19 to the state shown in fig. 21 according to the arrow F direction in fig. 19, the first guide groove 4321 drives the first push rod 4511 to move forward through the first switching pin 4514, and when the first push rod 4511 moves forward, the first push rod 4511 compresses the first elastic element 4512 and presses the first link 4513 through the first elastic element 4512 to drive the locking element to move forward through the first link 4513. Referring to fig. 20, preferably, the outer side of the gearbox housing is provided with a first groove 1126 extending axially, a first push rod 4511 and a first resilient member 4512 are located in the first groove 1126 so as to be axially movable along the first groove 1126, and a first link 4513 is located in the first groove 1126 and covers over the first push rod 4511 and the first resilient member 4512. The outer side of the gear box housing is further provided with a second groove 1127 extending axially, a second push rod 4521 and a second resilient member 4522 are located in the second groove 1126 so as to be axially movable along the second groove 1127, and a second link 4523 is located in the second groove 1127 and covers over the second push rod 4521 and the second resilient member 4522. Preferably, there are at least two sets of first pusher bar assemblies 451 and second pusher bar assemblies 452.

It is understood that in other embodiments, the first switch pin 4514 can be directly fixedly connected to the first link 4513, so that the axial movement of the first switch pin 4514 directly drives the first link 4513 to perform the axial movement. However, compared to the above-mentioned connection of the first switching pin 4514 and the first self-aligning member 4510, when the first switching pin 4514 moves forward, the first push rod 4511 abuts against the first resilient member 4512 and further pushes the first link 4513 to move forward through the first resilient member 4512, in this way, after the operation member 30 is operated to a certain position, if the slot 1340 on the locking member is not engaged with the lock 1510 on the first body 1501a, the "tooth top" phenomenon is also generated, because of the presence of the first resilient member 4512, after the body 151 rotates, the compressed first resilient member 1322 will continue to push the first link 4513 so that the slot 1340 of the locking member is engaged with the lock 1510 on the first body 1501a again.

24-26 illustrate a second embodiment of the screwdriver 10 ' of the present invention, which discloses another way to achieve auto chuck mode in which the body 151 ' is rotationally fixed by the body lock 134 ', while the output ring gear 1582 ' rotates the nut sleeve 154 '; in a drill mode, the body lock 134 'is released from fixing the body 151', the output gear ring 1582 'is fixed relative to the machine shell, the body 151' drives the clamping jaw 152 'to rotate under the driving of the motor so as to drive the tool head to rotate, and the output gear ring 1582' does not need to move axially during mode switching, so that the output gear ring 1582 'can be stably fixed in the shell, and the output of the screwdriver 10' is more stable.

The operating member of this embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the operating member comprises a speed operating member (not shown) for speed adjustment in a drill mode, and the mode selection mechanism comprises a mode selection member 301 ', a shift ring 43 ', a body lock 134 ' for locking the body, a third shift pin 4534 ', a third push rod assembly 453 ', a link 182 ', and an inner ring lock 181 '.

Specifically, as in the first embodiment described above, the body lock 134 ' is fixed to the housing in a non-rotatable manner all the time in the circumferential direction, but is capable of moving axially relative to the housing to switch between a first lock position and a second lock position, the body lock 134 ' being moved axially to switch the body lock 134 ' between the first lock position and the second lock position, and the first lock position being close to the first body 1501a ' and the second lock position being far from the first body 1501a '. When the screwdriver is in the auto chuck mode and the body lock 134 ' is located at the first locking position, the body lock 134 ' circumferentially and non-rotatably locks the body 151 ' to the machine shell, and when the screwdriver is in the drill mode and the body lock 134 ' is located at the second locking position, the body lock 134 ' releases circumferential locking of the first body 1501a ', and the output planet wheel 1581 ' can drive the body 151 ' and the clamping jaw 152 ' clamping the tool head to rotate together.

Preferably, the mode selecting member 301 'is a rotating ring sleeved outside the housing, the switching ring 43' is rotatably connected to the mode selecting member 301 ', and the switching ring 43' is provided with a third guiding groove 432 ', it can be understood that, in other embodiments, the switching ring 43' and the mode selecting member 301 'can also be integrally formed, that is, the guiding groove 432' is provided on the inner wall of the switching ring 43 ', and the guiding groove 432' is used for driving the third push rod assembly 453 'to axially move through the third switching pin 4534'. One end of the third push rod assembly 453 ' is movably disposed in the third guide groove 432 ' by a third switching pin 4534 ', and the other end is connected to the connecting member 182 ' for driving the connecting member 182 ' to move axially. The connecting piece 182 ' is movable between a first switching position close to the internal gear lock 181 ' and a second switching position remote from the internal gear lock 181 ', and the connecting piece 182 ' is always rotationally connected with the output gear 1582 ' during the axial movement. The internal gear lock 181 ' is fixed relative to the housing in a non-rotatable manner in the circumferential direction, and when the connecting member 182 ' is in the first switching position, the connecting member 182 ' is rotationally connected with the internal gear lock 181 ' and limits the rotation of the output gear 1582 ' through the internal gear lock 181 ', that is, the output gear 1582 ' is fixed relative to the housing in the circumferential direction at this time; when the connecting piece 182 ' is at the second switching position, the connecting piece 182 ' is axially separated from the internal gear lock 181 ', and the output gear 1582 ' can drive the connecting piece 182 ' to rotate together.

In this embodiment, in order to realize that the mode selecting member 301 ' enables the third push rod assembly 453 ' to drive the connecting member 182 ' to move and the body lock 134 ' can also move to the corresponding position, preferably, the body lock 134 ' is axially abutted against the connecting member 182 ' and the body lock 134 ' is further provided with a third elastic element 135 ' between the end far away from the output ring gear 1582 ' and the casing. When the connecting member 182 ' moves axially, the connecting member 182 ' no longer abuts against the body lock 134 ', the body lock 134 ' can move axially under the action of the third elastic element 135 ', and when the connecting member 182 ' moves reversely, the connecting member 182 ' pushes the body lock 134 ' to return to the corresponding position by overcoming the acting force of the third elastic element 135 '.

The principles of switching the screwdriver 10' between the drill mode and the auto chuck mode will be further described below in conjunction with FIGS. 24-26.

Referring to FIG. 25, when the screwdriver is in the drill mode, the body lock 134 ' is in a second lock position away from the first body 1501a ', and the body lock 134 ' is axially separated from the first body 1501a ', i.e., the body lock 134 ' does not lock the first body 1501a ', such that the body 151 ' is rotatably disposed in the housing; meanwhile, the connecting member 182 ' is located at the first switching position near the internal ring latch 181 ', the connecting member 182 ' is engaged with the ring gear fixing teeth 1811 ' on the inner peripheral wall of the internal ring latch 181 ' through the locking teeth 1821 ' (see fig. 24) located on the outer periphery thereof, and the output ring gear 1582 ' is non-rotatably fixed to the housing, so that the output planet 1581 ' in this mode rotates the body 151 ' and the chuck 152 ', and further operates the tool bit located in the chuck 152 '.

When the mode selector 301 'is rotated to the auto chuck mode, i.e., the screwdriver 10' is switched from the state shown in fig. 25 to the state shown in fig. 26, the mode selector 301 'rotates the switching ring 43', the third push rod assembly 453 'moves the connecting member 182' away from the inner ring lock 181 'by the third guide slot 432' of the switching ring 43 ', i.e., the connecting member 182' moves forward from the first switching position to the second switching position, the locking teeth 1821 'on the outer periphery of the connecting member 182' disengage from the fixed teeth 1811 'on the inner peripheral wall of the inner ring lock 181', and the output ring 1582 'can drive the connecting member 182' to rotate together relative to the housing. It should be noted that when the connecting member 182 ' moves forward from the first switching position to the second switching position, the connecting member 182 ' is simultaneously connected to the nut sleeve 154 ' in a rotating manner, so that the nut sleeve 154 ' can be rotated by the rotation of the output ring gear 1582 '. Since the connecting member 182 ' is axially abutted against the body lock 134 ', when the connecting member 182 ' moves forward from the first switching position to the second switching position, the body lock 134 ' moves from the first locking position away from the first body 1501a ' to the second locking position close to the first body 1501a ' by the third elastic member 135 ', and the body lock 134 ' engages with the lock block 1510 ' on the first body 1501a ' through the locking teeth (not shown) of the planet carrier located on the inner peripheral wall thereof to lock the first body 1501a '. Thus, in this mode, the output ring gear 1582 ' is able to rotate relative to the fixed first body 1501a ' and the jaws 152 ' via the connectors 182 ', thereby effecting an opening or closing action of the jaws 152 '.

When the mode selector 301 ' is rotated continuously, and the screwdriver is switched from auto chuck mode to drill mode, the mode selector 301 ' drives the switching ring 43 ' to rotate, and the rotation of the switching ring 43 ' makes the third push rod assembly 453 ' overcome the elastic force of the third elastic element 135 ' to drive the connecting element 182 ' and the body lock 134 ' abutted by the first connecting element 182 ' to move backward together, so that the screwdriver returns to the drill mode state. Preferably, in order that the locking teeth 1821 ' of the outer circumference of the link 182 ' can smoothly mesh with the ring gear fixing teeth 1811 ' of the ring gear lock 181 ' when the link 182 ' moves backward from the second switching position to the first switching position, a fourth elastic member (not shown) is provided at a rear side of the ring gear lock 181 ' such that the link 182 ' rotates by the ring gear lock 181 ' compressing the fourth elastic member when the locking teeth 1821 ' of the outer circumference of the link 182 ' and the ring gear fixing teeth 1811 ' of the ring gear lock 181 ' have "top teeth", and the ring gear lock 181 ' meshes in place after rotating.

The present embodiment further includes a clutch mechanism 20 ' for interrupting torque transmission between the output ring gear 1582 ' and the nut sleeve 154 ' when the jaws 152 are locked or unlocked, the clutch mechanism 20 ' includes a first clutch member 21 ' rotatably coupled to the coupling member 182 ' after the coupling member 182 ' is moved forward, and a second clutch member 22 ' rotatably coupled to the nut sleeve 154 ', and a clutch elastic member 23 ' is provided between the first clutch member 21 ' and a housing at a front end thereof. When the holding claws 152 ' are locked or fully opened, the first clutch member 21 ' is moved forward against the elastic force of the clutch elastic member 23 ' to disconnect the torque transmission between the first clutch member 21 ' and the second clutch member 22 '.

It should be noted that in the second embodiment of the present invention, the output ring gear 1582 'does not need to be axially moved during the mode switching, that is, the output ring gear 1582' is axially fixed relatively to the motor shaft of the housing, the mode selecting member 301 'is operatively movable between the first position and the second position to move the connecting member 182', so that the connecting member 182 'connects the output ring gear 1582' and the clutch member in the rotation direction in the chuck adjusting mode, and the connecting member 182 'disconnects the output ring gear 1582' and the clutch members 21 'and 22' in the rotation direction in the drilling mode. Since the inner peripheral teeth of the output ring gear 1582 ' need to mesh with the outer ring teeth of the output planet gears 1581 ', normally, the smaller the meshing gap between the inner peripheral teeth of the output ring gear 1582 ' and the outer ring teeth of the output planet gears 1581 ', the more stable the transmission is, but when the output ring gear 1582 ' needs to perform axial movement, the meshing gap must be increased, otherwise the axial movement of the output ring gear is blocked or difficult, which makes the transmission poor in stability. In the second embodiment of the present invention, the connecting member 182 'axially moves, thereby avoiding the problem of poor transmission stability caused by the axial movement of the output ring gear 1582'.

One end of the third switching pin 4534 "is movably disposed in the third guide groove 432", and the other end is connected to the connecting member 182 "to axially move the connecting member 182". Body lock 134 "is movable, but circumferentially non-rotatable, fixed relative to the case between a first lock position proximate first body 1501 a" and a second lock position distal first body 1501a ". Like the second embodiment, the connecting member 182 "in this embodiment is always rotationally connected to the output ring gear 1582", the inner ring gear lock 181 "is non-rotatably fixed to the housing, the connecting member 182" is axially moved to engage with or disengage from the inner ring gear lock 181 "to thereby circumferentially fix or circumferentially rotate the output ring gear 1582", respectively, that is, the connecting member 182' is movable between a first switching position close to the inner ring gear lock 181 "and a second switching position away from the inner ring gear lock 181", and the connecting member 182 "is always rotationally connected to the output ring gear 1582" during the axial movement. The internal gear lock 181 "is circumferentially fixed relative to the housing in a non-rotatable manner, and when the connecting member 182" is in the first switching position, the connecting member 182 'is rotationally connected with the internal gear lock 181' and limits the rotation of the output gear 1582 "through the internal gear lock 181", that is, the output gear 1582 "is circumferentially fixed relative to the housing at this time; when the connecting member 182 "is in the second switching position, the connecting member 182" is axially separated from the internal gear lock 181', and the output gear 1582 "can drive the connecting member 182" to rotate together, while the connecting member 182 "is rotatably connected to the nut sleeve 154".

The main difference between this embodiment and the second embodiment is the structure and movement of the body lock 134 "in this embodiment. The switching pin of this embodiment further includes a fourth switching pin 4516 "connected to the body lock 134" for moving the body lock 134 "in a radial direction, and the guide groove further includes a fourth guide groove (not shown) for moving one end of the fourth switching pin 4516". The other end of the fourth switching pin 4516 "is connected to the body lock 134" for bringing the body lock 134 "into radial movement so that the body lock 134" can lock and unlock the first body 1501a ", and preferably, the fourth switching pin 4516" is integrally formed with the body lock 134 "in this embodiment. Referring to FIG. 27, when the screwdriver 10 "is in the drill mode, the body lock 134" is radially separated from the first body 1501a ", while the inner ring lock 181" is rotatably connected to the output ring 1582 "via the connector 182", and the connector 182 "is separated from the nut sleeve 154", so that, in this mode, rotation of the body 151 "rotates the jaws 152" together with the tool bit located within the jaws 152 ". Referring to fig. 29, when the screwdriver 10 "is in the autochouck mode, the body lock 134" radially engages the first body 1501a "to rotationally fix the body 151" relative to the housing, while the internal gear lock 181 "is separated from the output gear 1582" by the connector 182 "and the connector 182" is rotationally connected to the nut sleeve 154 ", so that, in this mode, the output gear 1582" can bring the connector 182 "and the nut sleeve 154" together to rotate relative to the jaws 152 "in the body 151" to cause the jaws to perform an opening or closing action.

Referring to fig. 28-29, when the screwdriver 10 "is switched from the drill mode to the auto chuck mode, the connecting member 182" is first disconnected from the inner ring lock 181 "during movement, the connecting member 182" is connected to the nut sleeve 154 "as the connecting member 182" continues to move, and the body lock 134 "is now connected to the body 151 a". It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, when the clamping jaw 152 "is opened or locked, the clutch mechanism 20" is disconnected from the output gear ring 1582 "and the nut sleeve 154", unlike the above-mentioned embodiment, the clutch movable end tooth 212 "in the present embodiment is fixedly connected to the connecting member 182", the clutch stationary end tooth 212 "is fixed to the nut sleeve 154", and the clutch elastic member 23 "is provided between the connecting member 182" and the casing. Referring to fig. 30, when the output ring gear 1582 "drives the nut sleeve 154" through the connecting element 182 "in the autochouck mode so that the clamping jaws 152" are clamped or completely opened, the connecting element 182 "presses the clutch elastic element 23", and the clutch movable end teeth 212 "are separated from the clutch static end teeth 222". Preferably, in order that movement of the connecting member 182 "does not result in movement of the third switching pin 4534" connected to the connecting member 182 "and the mode selecting member 301" when "tripped," the connecting member 182 "is provided with an axially extending clutch slot 182 a" to enable movement of the connecting member 182 "relative to the third switching pin 4534" when "tripped. It should be noted that, as can be seen from the description of the operating principle of the screwdriver 10 "in the park mode switching and the auto chuck mode and the switching principle of the park mode switching to the auto chuck mode in the present embodiment, the first clutch member (not shown) and the second clutch member (not shown) of the clutch mechanism 20" in the present embodiment are not always engaged, and are substantially the same as the clutch mechanism described in the background art, and only in the auto chuck mode, the first clutch member and the second clutch member are engaged (i.e., the clutch movable end teeth 212 "are engaged with the clutch stationary end teeth 222").

Fig. 31-42, 54, 56, and 57 are schematic illustrations of an electrically powered screwdriver 10a according to another embodiment of the present invention, the screwdriver 10a including a housing, a motor 12a, a battery 18 for supplying power, a transmission, and a collet assembly including a collet housing (front housing) 1104a and an output device 15a at least partially disposed within the collet housing 1104 a. Specifically, the housing includes a rear housing 1103a extending in a horizontal direction and a handle housing 1102a fixedly connected to the rear housing 1103a to form a grip handle, a collet housing 1104a (front housing) abuts against the rear housing 1103a to form a main housing extending in the horizontal direction, and the main housing forms an accommodation chamber for accommodating at least a part of the output device 15 a.

The motor 12a is disposed in the housing, and outputs rotational power. The output device 15a includes an output shaft 150a, and the output shaft 150a is provided with a receiving hole 1500a for receiving a tool bit. The transmission mechanism is located between the motor 12a and the output device 15a to transmit the rotational power of the motor 12a to the output device 15 a. The mode selection mechanism is used to switch the screwdriver 10a between at least a drilling mode or a chuck adjustment mode.

Referring to fig. 31-36, the output shaft 150a includes a body 151a, a clamping jaw 152a disposed around the receiving hole 1500a for clamping the tool bit, and a clamping groove 153a disposed on the body 151a for receiving the clamping jaw 152a, the output device 15a further includes an output planetary gear 1581a, an output ring gear 1582a disposed outside the output planetary gear 1581a, and an adjusting member disposed outside the body 151a and capable of rotating relative to the body 151a and the clamping jaw 152a to lock or unlock the clamping jaw 152a, basically, as in the previous embodiment, the adjusting member includes a nut sleeve 154a, an internal thread (not shown) is provided on the inner circumferential wall of the nut sleeve 154a, an external thread 1521a is provided on the side of the clamping jaw 152a facing the internal thread, as the nut sleeve 154a is rotated relative to the jaw 152a, the interaction between the internal threads and the external threads 1521a causes the jaw 152a to perform an opening or closing action. The transmission mechanism is provided with an output sun gear 1583a for driving the output planet gear 1581a to rotate.

The mode selection mechanism comprises a connecting piece 420a capable of connecting the output gear ring 1582a and the adjusting piece and a locking element 130a capable of selectively preventing the output gear ring 1582a or the body 151a from rotating, wherein the locking element 130a is non-rotatably arranged relative to the machine shell, the locking element 130a is separated from the body 151a and connected with the output gear ring 1582a to prevent the output gear ring 1582a from rotating circumferentially when in the drilling mode, and power between the output gear ring 1582a and the adjusting piece is disconnected under the action of the connecting piece 420a, so that the body 151a and the clamping jaw 152a can rotate under the driving of the motor 12a to drive the tool head to perform work; when the screwdriver 10a is switched from the drilling mode to the chuck adjusting mode, the locking element 130a is connected with the body 151a and disconnected from the output gear ring 1582a to prevent the body 151a from rotating circumferentially and release the circumferential limitation on the output gear ring 1582a, and the output gear ring 1582a and the adjusting piece are connected under the action of the connector 420a, so that the output gear ring 1582a can drive the adjusting piece to rotate relative to the body 151a and the clamping jaws 152a under the action of the motor 12a to realize the opening or closing of the clamping jaws 152 a. Therefore, the locking member 130a in the present embodiment includes both the body lock for locking the body 151a and the inner ring lock for locking the output ring gear 1582a, in other words, the body lock for locking the body 151a and the inner ring lock for locking the output ring gear 1582a are inseparably connected or integrally formed, as in the first embodiment described above, unlike the first embodiment described above, the present embodiment is implemented by providing the connecting member 420a such that the output ring gear 1582a and the adjusting member are connected in the rotation direction in the autochuck mode, but the output ring gear 1582a and the adjusting member are disconnected in the rotation direction in the drill mode, rather than by axially moving the output ring gear 1582 a.

In this embodiment, the mode selection mechanism further includes a first push rod assembly 451a connected to the locking member 130a for pushing the locking member 130a to move so as to selectively lock the body 151a or the output gear ring 1582a by the locking member 130a, and a fourth push rod assembly 454a connected to the first push rod assembly 451a and the link 420a, so that the fourth push rod assembly 454a can move the link 420a under the action of the first push rod assembly 451 a. Preferably, in the present embodiment, the locking member 130a is moved in the axial direction to switch the locking member 130a between the first locking position and the second locking position, and the link 420a is moved in the axial direction to switch the link between the first connecting position and the second disconnecting position.

How first push rod assembly 451a moves fourth push rod assembly 454a and link 420a connected to fourth push rod assembly 454a will be further described below in conjunction with fig. 31 and 37-39. The fourth push rod assembly 454a includes a fourth link 4541a, the first push rod assembly 451a includes a first link 4513a, one end of the first link 4513a is connected to the mode connector 302a, and the other end is connected to the locking element 130a, when the screwdriver is switched from the drill mode to the auto chuck mode, that is, the first link 4513a moves backward under the external force, and the first link 4513a drives the locking element 130a to move backward axially. In order to enable the first link 4513a to drive the fourth link 4541a to move axially backwards, and the movement stroke of the first link 4513a (i.e., the locking element 130a) and the movement stroke of the fourth link 4541a (i.e., the connecting member 420a) may be different or asynchronous, one of the first link 4513a or the fourth link 4541a is provided with an axially extending link guide 4510a, and the other of the first link 4513a or the fourth link 4541a is provided with a link guide 4542a located in the link guide 4510a, in this embodiment, the link guide 4510a is disposed on the first link 4513a, and the link guide 4542a is located on the fourth link 4541 a. When the first link 4513a drives the locking member 130a to move axially rearward by a certain distance, the locking member 130a is disconnected from the output ring gear 1582a, and the link guide 4542a continues to move rearward to abut against the link guide 4512a, so that the first link 4513a not only drives the locking member 130a to move axially rearward but also drives the fourth link 4514a to move axially rearward, and at this time, the locking member 130a is connected to the body 151a in the rotating direction, the body 151a is locked, and the connecting member 420a moves axially rearward to connect to the output ring gear 1582a, and the screwdriver is switched to the auto chuck mode.

When the screwdriver is switched from auto chuck to drill mode, the first link 4513a drives the locking element 130a to move axially forward under the action of external force. In order to enable the first link 4513a to drive the fourth link 4541a to move axially forward, a push rod elastic member 480a is further disposed between the first push rod assembly 451a and the fourth link 4541a, wherein the first push rod assembly 451a first drives the locking element 130a to move axially forward, and the forward movement of the first push rod assembly 451a causes the push rod elastic member 480a to compress and push the fourth link 4541a to move forward through the push rod elastic member 480a after the push rod elastic member 480a is compressed to a certain extent. By providing the push rod elastic member 480a between the first push rod assembly 451a and the fourth link 4541a, in addition to being able to push the fourth link 4541a axially forward when the first link 4513a moves axially forward, the push rod elastic member 480a is also able to eliminate the "tooth jacking" phenomenon in time when the connecting member 420a engages with the output ring gear 1582a during the axial backward movement when the screwdriver is switched from the drill mode to the auto chuck mode.

Referring to fig. 32-33, when in the drill mode, the connecting member 420a is located on a side of the output ring gear 1582a away from the motor 12 and is connected with the adjusting member without relative rotation, the locking member 130a is located at the second locking position, the locking member 130a releases the circumferential locking of the body 151a and circumferentially locks the output ring gear 1582a through axial movement, meanwhile, the connecting member 420a disconnects the output ring gear 1582a from the adjusting member, and the output planet gears 1581a can drive the body 151a and the clamping jaws 152a located in the body 151a to rotate together.

When the hand-held power tool is switched from the boring mode to the chuck adjusting mode, the coupling 420a and the locking member 130a are moved in the axial direction of the motor shaft in a direction approaching the motor 12a, so that the coupling 420a is engaged with the output ring gear 1582a in the rotational direction, while the locking member 130a is disengaged from the output ring gear 1582a and fixes the body 151a with respect to the housing.

Referring to fig. 34 and 35, when the screwdriver is in the auto chuck mode, the locking member 130a is in the first locking position, the connector 420a is in the first connector position, the locking member 130a circumferentially non-rotatably locks the body 151a to the housing, and the connector 420a connects the output ring gear 1582a with the adjuster.

The screwdriver 10a further comprises a clutch mechanism 20a located between the output ring gear 1582a for disconnecting torque transmission between the output ring gear 1582a and the adjusting member in auto-chuck mode with the jaws 152a opened or closed, the clutch mechanism 20a comprising a first clutch member 21a rotatably connectable with the output ring gear 1582a, and a second clutch member 22a rotatably coupled to the adjustment member and axially movable relative to the adjustment member, and a clutch elastic member 23a, in this embodiment, the clutch elastic member 23a is located between the second clutch member 22a and the cartridge housing 1104a (front housing), when the clamping jaws 152a are clamped or fully opened, the second clutch member 22a compresses the clutch elastic member 23a, the second clutch member 22a moves axially forward, the first clutch member 21a is disengaged from the second clutch member 22a, and the output ring gear 1582a no longer transmits torque to the adjuster (the nut sleeve 154 a). Preferably, the first clutch member 21a is a snap ring sleeved on the outer periphery of the body 151a, the snap ring is provided with a clutch tooth groove 211a extending in the axial direction, and the connecting member 420a is provided with a connecting tooth 421a engaged with the tooth groove 211a, in this embodiment, the connecting member 420a and the first clutch member 21a are normally engaged, that is, the connecting tooth 421a is always located in the clutch tooth groove 211a, and moves backward in the clutch tooth groove 211a through the connecting tooth 421a, that is, moves in a direction approaching the output ring gear 1582a, so as to connect the first clutch member 21a and the output ring gear 1582 a. Of course, it is understood that in other embodiments, the clutch structure 20a may be disposed in other ways, such as, for example, the elastic clutch member 23a is located between the first clutch member 21a and the housing 11a, when the clamping jaw 152a is clamped or completely opened, the first clutch member 22a compresses the elastic clutch member 23a, the first clutch member moves axially, the first clutch member 21a is disengaged from the second clutch member 22a, and the output ring gear 1582a no longer transmits torque to the nut sleeve 154 a.

The mode selection mechanism further includes a mode selector member 301a movable relative to the housing between a first position and a second position, the hand-held power tool 10a being in a drilling mode when the mode selector member 301a is in the first position; when the mode selector 301a is in the second position, the hand-held power tool 10a is in the chuck adjustment mode; when the mode selector 301a moves from the first position to the second position, the mode selector 301a moves in a direction away from the first end (the output shaft 150a has an end provided with the receiving hole 1500a in the axial direction). In this embodiment, the movement of the mode selector 301a between the first position and the second position is a movement in the axial direction of the motor shaft, that is, the mode selector 301a moves between the first position and the second position in the front-rear direction of the main housing 1101.

The mode selector 301a and the first push rod assembly 451a are connected to transmit the movement of the mode selector 301a to the first push rod assembly 451a, and in this embodiment, when the operator grips the handle portion, the operator can simultaneously operate the mode selector 301a with the hand gripping the handle portion. Specifically, in order to facilitate the mode switching when the operator grips the handle housing 1102a with one hand, the mode selector 301a is disposed adjacent to the handle housing 1102a so that the operator can grip the handle and control the linear movement of the mode selector 301a with one hand at the same time. Preferably, in this embodiment, when the screwdriver is switched to the autochouck mode, the mode selector 301a moves in a first direction under the pressing action of the finger, and preferably, the output shaft 150a has a first end provided with the receiving hole 1500a and a second end opposite to the first end along the axial direction, and the first direction is the direction from the first end to the second end, that is, the mode selector 301a has a first position and a second position after moving from the initial position to the first position along the first direction, so that the screwdriver is in the autochouck mode after the mode selector 301a moves from the first position to the second position along the first direction. In addition, the middle mode selection mechanism of the present embodiment further includes a mode reset element 303a elastically abutting against the mode selection member 301a, and the mode reset element 303a is located between the mode selection member 301a and the housing. The mode selector 301a is adapted to be operatively moved from the first position to the second position against the force of the first resilient element 303a and to be returned from the second position to the first position by the resilient force of the first resilient element 303 a.

After the mode selection member 301a moves to the second position along the first direction, the mode reset element 303a is in an elastic energy storage state under the action of external force through the mode selection member 301a, that is, when the mode reset element 303a is a tension spring, the mode reset element 303a is stretched under the action of external force, when the mode reset element 303a is a compression spring, the mode reset element 303a is compressed under the action of external force, and when the external force is released, the mode selection member 301a moves to the initial position under the action of the mode reset element 303 a. It should be noted that, when the screwdriver 10a is switched from the drill mode to the auto chuck mode, the locking element 130a and the connecting element 420a in this embodiment both move along the first direction, which is consistent with the moving direction of the mode selector 301a (i.e. the moving directions of the connecting element 420a and the locking element 130a are the same as the moving direction of the mode selector 301 a), and this arrangement is such that the mode selector 301a can drive the locking element 130a and the connecting element 420a to move through a simple linkage mechanism (such as the first push rod assembly 451a and the fourth push rod assembly 454a described above), compared with the case where the moving directions of the locking element 130a or the connecting element 420a and the mode selector 301a are not consistent, the linkage mechanism does not need to switch the moving directions, and the linkage mechanism has a simple structure.

In this embodiment, the screwdriver further includes a switch trigger 304a for controlling the powering or de-powering of the motor 12 and a first control assembly for controlling the movement of the motor 12 in accordance with the movement of the switch trigger 304 a. The stroke of movement of the switch trigger 304a includes the motor 12 being moved between a start position in which it is in a de-energized state, an end position in which it is in an energized state, and a predetermined position between the start and end positions that controls the output of the motor 12 at a predetermined speed.

To facilitate control of the speed of the motor 12 when the switch trigger 304a is operated, the first control assembly causes the rotational speed of the motor 12 to vary as the stroke of movement of the switch trigger 304a varies in magnitude. That is, the rotational speed of the motor 12 is set in proportion to the stroke of the trigger switch 304a from the start position, and the greater the stroke of the trigger switch 304a from the start position, the higher the rotational speed of the motor. In substantially the same manner as the mode selector 301a in this embodiment, in order to facilitate the control of the switch trigger 304a by an operator when gripping the handle with one hand, the switch trigger 304a is disposed adjacent to the handle housing so that the operator can simultaneously grip the handle and control the movement of the switch trigger 304a with one hand, the movement of the switch trigger 304a is preferably a linear movement, the switch trigger 304a has a switch initial position for disconnecting the motor from the power supply and an end position for connecting the motor to the power supply, and the larger the stroke of the movement of the switch trigger 304a in the first direction, the further the operating position is from the output position, that is, the higher the rotational speed of the motor.

Further, the mode selector 301a is disposed proximate the switch trigger 304a, thereby enabling an operator to simultaneously grip the handle and selectively control linear movement of one of the mode selector 301a and the switch trigger 304a with a single hand.

As can be seen from the above description of the first embodiment, when the screwdriver is in the automatic mode, if the speed of the motor is high, the problem of "trip" sound is harsh and the operating environment is poor is easily caused. To avoid this problem, it is desirable to limit the travel of the movement of the switch trigger 304a to avoid a higher motor speed due to a larger travel of the movement of the switch trigger 304. Referring to fig. 32-35, in the present embodiment, the screwdriver further includes an interlocking unit 305a, and the interlocking unit 305a is pivotally disposed on the housing and can be driven by the mode selector 301a to perform a pivotal motion in a predetermined pivotal direction.

The interlock unit 305a includes a first stopper arm 3051a and a second stopper arm 3052a, see fig. 35, and when the mode selector 301a is switched to the second position as shown by an arrow F1, the mode selector 301a forces the first stopper arm 3051 to pivot the interlock unit 305a, and the free end of the second stopper arm 3052a moves to a predetermined position between the initial position and the final position of the switch trigger 304a, and when the switch trigger moves from the initial position to the final position, the interlock unit 305a can abut against the switch trigger 304 at a predetermined position to limit the stroke of the movement of the switch trigger 304a to prevent it from passing over the predetermined position, thereby controlling the rotation speed of the motor 12. In order to prevent the operator from operating the mode selector 301a by mistake when the motor speed is high in the drill mode, when the switch trigger 304a moves to any position between the predetermined position and the end position, if the mode selector 301a is operated, when the mode selector 301a pivots the interlock unit 305 via the first limit arm 3051a, the second limit arm 3052a abuts against the switch trigger, so that the mode selector 301a is prevented from moving to the second position, and the mode selector 301a cannot move to the second position. In this embodiment, a mode connector 302a is further disposed between the interlocking unit 305a and the first link 4513a, and preferably, the mode connector 302a is an elastic steel wire.

Referring to fig. 31 to 35, in the present embodiment, the mode selector 301a is provided with a mode switching slot 3011a for guiding the movement of the free end of the first limit arm 3051a, when the mode selector 301a moves in the first direction, the free end of the first limit arm 3051a moves along a preset path under the action of the mode switching slot 3011a, the interlock unit 305a pivots in a preset direction, and the second limit arm 3052a pivots between the end position and the initial position, so that the switch trigger 304a cannot move from the initial position to the end position; referring to fig. 35a, when the switch trigger 304a is switched from the initial position to the final position in the drill mode, the free end of the second limit arm 3052a can abut against the switch trigger 304a in the predetermined rotational direction, that is, the free end of the second limit arm 3052a cannot pivot between the final position and the initial position beyond the final position, so that the interlock unit 305a cannot pivot to the first limit position in the predetermined direction, and therefore, the mode selector cannot operate.

In other embodiments of the present invention, the interlock unit 305a may be configured in other forms, as shown in fig. 40-42, and the interlock unit 305a 'is pivotally disposed in the housing and can be pivotally moved in a predetermined pivotal direction by the mode selector 301 a'. The interlock unit 305a ' includes a first limit arm 3051a ' and a second limit arm 3052a ', when the mode selector 301a ' is switched from the position of fig. 40 to the position of fig. 41, i.e., to the second position, the mode selector 301a ' forces the first limit arm 3051a ' to pivot the interlock unit 305a ' to the first limit position, and the free end of the second limit arm 3052a ' moves to a predetermined position between the switch initial position and the switch terminal position to limit the travel of the movement of the switch trigger 304a '. Referring to fig. 42, after the switch trigger 304a ' moves to the end position, the second limit arm 3052a ' abuts the travel switch in the predetermined pivotal direction, and the mode selector 301a ' cannot move to the second position. The mode selector 301a 'is provided with a first abutting portion 3011 a' abutting against the first limit arm 3051a ', and referring to fig. 40-41, when the mode selector 301 a' moves along the first direction, the first abutting portion 3011a 'abuts against the first limit arm 3051 a', and the first limit arm 3051a 'drives the interlock unit 305 a' to pivot in the preset direction. The switch trigger 304a ' is provided with a second abutting portion 3041a ' capable of abutting against the second stopper arm 3052a ', and when the switch trigger 304a ' moves in the first direction, the second abutting portion 3041a ' abuts against the second stopper arm 3052a ', and the second stopper arm 3052a ' drives the interlocking unit 305a ' to pivot, so that the free end of the first stopper arm 3051a ' moves between the initial position and the second position. When the mode selector 301a ' moves in the first direction, the first abutment 3011a ' abuts the first stopper arm 3051a ', and the mode selector 301a ' cannot move to the second position, i.e., the mode selector 301a ' cannot switch the screwdriver to the autochouck mode. In addition, in this embodiment, the mode link 302a ' is directly connected to the mode select member 301a ', i.e., the mode link 302a ' is not connected to the mode select member 301a ' through the stop mechanism 305a '.

In the same manner as the first embodiment described above, the transmission mechanism is a planetary gear reduction mechanism 13a in this embodiment, wherein the planetary gear reduction mechanism 13a is preferably a two-stage planetary gear reduction mechanism including a first-stage planetary gear train 131a close to the motor and a second-stage planetary gear train 132a close to the output device 15 a. The first-stage planetary gear set 131a includes a first sun gear 1310a fixed to the motor shaft 121a, a first planet gear 1311a engaged with the first sun gear 1310a and disposed at an outer periphery of the first sun gear 1310a, a first ring gear 1312a engaged with the first planet gear 1311a, and a first carrier 1313a for supporting the first planet gear 1311a, and the second-stage planetary gear set 132a includes a second sun gear 1320a fixedly disposed on the first carrier 1313a, a second planet gear 1321a engaged with the second sun gear 1320a, a second ring gear 1322a engaged with the second planet gear 1321a, and a second carrier 1323a for supporting the second planet gear 1321 a. Second ring gear 1322a (i.e., equivalent to a shift ring gear in the present embodiment) is movable along motor shaft 121a with respect to the housing between a first shift position close to the electric motor and a second shift position away from the motor. When the second ring gear 1322a is located at the first shift position, the second ring gear 1322a is rotatably disposed in the housing, and the second ring gear 1322a is engaged with the first planet carrier 1313a and the second planet gear 1321a at the same time, so that the first planet carrier 1313a, the second planet gear 1321a and the second ring gear 1322a rotate together, the second-stage planetary gear set 132a has no speed reduction output, that is, the second planet carrier 1323a rotates at the same speed as the first planet carrier 1313a, and the second planet carrier 1323a outputs high speed. When the second ring gear 1322a is located at the second shift position, the second ring gear 1322a is circumferentially fixed to the rear housing 110a in a non-rotatable manner, and the second ring gear 1322a is disengaged from the first carrier 1313a during axial movement but the second ring gear 1322a is still engaged with the second planet gears 1321a, so that the second carrier 1323a outputs at a predetermined reduction gear ratio with respect to the first carrier 1313a, and the second carrier 1323a outputs a low speed. Meanwhile, when the mode selector 301a moves from the first position to the second position, the second ring gear 1322a (i.e., the shift ring gear) can be moved to the first shift position. In this embodiment, the mode selector 301a is provided with a switch trigger (not shown in the figure), when the mode selector 301a moves to the second position, the switch trigger is triggered, the power supply circuit of the motor is turned on, and the motor 12 drives the adjusting member to rotate relative to the body 151a to open or close the clamping jaw. In the first embodiment, in order to ensure that the rotation speed of the output shaft 150 is low in the automatic mode, the second carrier outputs a low speed in the automatic mode by providing the "T" groove structure. In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the rotation speed of the output shaft 150 is low in the autochouck mode, the screwdriver 10a further includes a position sensor 24a and a second control component, the position sensor 24a is used for detecting the position of the second ring gear 1322a and transmitting a position signal of the second ring gear 1322a to the second control component, and the second control component controls the rotation speed of the motor according to the position of the second ring gear 1322a so that the output shaft 15a can always be in the autochouck low-speed mode output in the autochouck mode, that is, output at a speed lower than a preset speed. It should be noted that the autochuk low speed mode in the present embodiment is not a specific value, as long as the speed of the output shaft 15a is lower than the preset rotation speed value.

In the present embodiment, the mode selecting member 301a drives the locking member 130a and the connecting member 420a to move through the first push rod assembly 451a and the fourth push rod assembly 454a, respectively, and the movement strokes of the locking member 130a and the connecting member 420a are not consistent when the modes are switched, it should be understood that in other embodiments, the movement strokes of the locking member 130a and the connecting member 420a may also be configured to be consistent, that is, the locking member 130a and the connecting member 420a may be driven by the same connecting rod to move synchronously.

Referring to fig. 31-34, 56 and 57, in one embodiment, the hand-held power tool further comprises a control module 66, wherein the control module 66 is electrically connected to the motor 12a, and the control module 66 is configured to respond to the movement of the mode selector 301a when the hand-held power tool is in the chuck adjusting mode and control the motor 12a to rotate in a predetermined direction to open or close the clamping jaws 152 a. That is, after the hand-held power tool is in the chuck adjustment mode, the control module 66 is capable of responding to the mode selector 301a and controlling the motor 12a to rotate in a predetermined direction to effect opening or closing of the jaws 152 a. When the operator operates the mode selector 301a to place the hand-held power tool in the auto-chuck mode, the control module 66 can control the motor 12a to rotate in either a first rotational direction or a second rotational direction opposite the first rotational direction to release and lock the tool bit. That is, in the auto chuck mode, the operator can control the forward rotation or the reverse rotation of the motor 12a only by operating the mode selector 301 a. Thus, when the motor 12a rotates, the nut sleeve 154a can be rotated by the output planetary gear train, and the nut sleeve 154a rotates relative to the clamping jaws 152a, so that the clamping jaws 152a open or close to release or lock the tool head.

In one embodiment, when the hand-held power tool is switched to the chuck adjustment mode, the control module 66 is responsive to movement of the mode selector 301a and controls the motor 12a to rotate in a first rotational direction, and when the hand-held power tool is again switched to the chuck adjustment mode, the control module 66 is responsive to movement of the mode selector 301a and controls the motor 12a to rotate in a second rotational direction opposite the first rotational direction, such that alternating operation of the mode selector 301a effects alternating opening and closing of the jaws 152 a.

Specifically, when the operator operates the mode selector 301a, the mode selector 301a moves from the first position to the second position, so that the handheld power tool is switched to the chuck adjusting mode. When the locking member 130a is located at the first locking position and the output ring 1582 is located at the second working position during the movement of the mode selector 301a from the first position to the second position, the locking member 130a circumferentially locks the body 151a and the clamping jaw 152a such that the body 151a and the clamping jaw 152a cannot rotate. After the mode selector 301a moves to the second position, the hand-held power tool is in the chuck adjustment mode, the control module 66 can respond to the movement of the mode selector 301a, and at this time, the control module 66 controls the motor 12a to rotate according to the preset rotation direction, specifically, the motor 12a can indirectly drive the output gear ring 1582 to rotate, and then the output gear ring 1582 drives the nut sleeve 154a to rotate relative to the clamping jaw 152a, so that the tool head is locked or released.

That is, the mode selector 301a has two control strokes, the first control stroke being a mechanical control stroke and the second control stroke being an electrical control stroke. After operating the mode selector 301a, the mode selector 301a first controls the locking member 130a to lock the body 151a, such that the hand-held power tool is in the chuck adjusting mode, and then the operation of the mode selector 301a can be responded by the control module 66, and then the control module 66 controls the motor 12a to rotate in the first rotational direction or the second rotational direction. It is understood that the first and second rotational directions herein refer to forward and reverse rotation of the motor 12 a. Illustratively, when the first rotational direction is a forward rotational direction of the motor 12a, then the second rotational direction is a reverse rotational direction of the motor 12 a. Of course, the first rotational direction may also be illustrated as the forward and reverse rotational directions of the motor 12a, and the second rotational direction is illustrated as the reverse rotational direction of the motor 12 a.

Thus, when the operation mode selector 301a is configured to place the hand-held power tool in the chuck adjustment mode, the control module 66 can control the motor 12a to rotate in the first rotation direction, i.e., the motor 12a rotates in the forward direction, and at this time, the motor 12a can drive the nut sleeve 154a to rotate relative to the clamping jaws 152a through the output gear 1582, so that the clamping jaws 152a are closed to lock the tool head. At this time, the operation of the mode selector 301a is released, the mode selector 301a is reset to the first position by the mode reset element, that is, the power tool is in the drilling mode, and the operator can use the hand-held power tool to perform corresponding operations such as drilling and the like. When the tool bit needs to be replaced or removed after use or the mounting position of the tool bit needs to be adjusted unreasonably, the mode selector 301a is operated again to the chuck adjustment mode, the control module 66 responds to the movement of the mode selector 301a, and the control module 66 can control the motor 12a to rotate in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the motor 12a in the auto chuck mode last time, that is, in the second rotation direction, that is, the motor 12a rotates reversely, at this time, the motor 12a can drive the nut sleeve 154a to rotate relative to the clamping jaws 152a through the output ring gear 1582, so that the clamping jaws 152a are opened to release the tool bit. After the operations of disassembling, replacing, adjusting the position and the like of the tool head are finished, the tool head is locked according to the mode. The locking and the releasing of the tool head are realized through the reciprocating operation, so that the locking and the releasing processes of the tool head are simple, an operator can complete the replacement of the operation accessory with one hand, and the tool is convenient for the operator to use.

It should be noted that the control module 66 has a memory function and can store the previous rotation direction of the motor 12a, so that at this time, the control module 66 controls the motor 12a to rotate in the direction opposite to the previous rotation direction. That is, when the control module 66 last time controls the motor 12a to rotate in the first rotational direction, the control module 66 this time controls the motor 12a to rotate in the second rotational direction. Therefore, when an operator controls the release and the locking of the tool head through the operation mode selection piece 301a, the mode switching and the locking or the releasing of the tool head can be realized only by operating one key without operating other keys, and the tool head is convenient to use. Moreover, when the power of the hand-held power tool is lost, the control module 66 may automatically store the rotation direction of the motor 12a before the power is lost, and after the power of the hand-held power tool is re-turned on, the control module 66 may control the rotation of the motor 12a according to the rotation direction before the power is lost.

With the hand-held power tool of the above embodiment, when the operator grips the handle portion, the operator can simultaneously operate the mode selector 301a with the hand gripping the handle portion, and, after operating the mode selector 301a, the control module 66 can control the motor 12a to rotate in the first rotational direction or the second rotational direction opposite to the first rotational direction to release and lock the tool head. Therefore, when an operator works, the hand-held power tool can be operated and controlled by one hand, the corresponding mode switching function and the closing or opening of the chuck mechanism are realized, the tool head is conveniently released and locked, and the flexibility is high.

Optionally, the hand-held power tool further comprises a reversing switch disposed on the handle portion, the reversing switch being electrically connected to the control module 66, the reversing switch being configured to control forward rotation or reverse rotation of the motor 12 a. When the operator operates the reversing switch, the control module 66 can control the motor 12a to rotate in the preset rotation direction according to the internal control information after the motor is started. Illustratively, the diverter switch is movable between a first position and a second position relative to the housing, the control module 66 controlling the motor 12a to rotate in a first rotational direction, i.e., forward rotation, when the diverter switch is operated by an operator to the first position, and the control module 66 controlling the motor 12a to rotate in a second rotational direction, i.e., reverse rotation, when the diverter switch is operated by the operator to the second position.

It can be understood that when the hand-held power tool is in the drill mode, the operator operates the reversing switch to make it be in the first position or the second position, and controls the motor 12a to rotate forward or backward through the reversing switch, and after the operator operates the trigger switch to start the motor, the motor 12a rotates forward or backward according to the position of the reversing switch, so as to drive the body 151a, the clamping jaw 152a, the adjusting member and the tool head to rotate together through the driving shaft to execute the work.

It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, operation of the mode selector 301a enables switching from the drilling mode to the chuck adjustment mode and starting the motor but not reversing the motor by operating the mode selector 301a, in which case reversing may be by way of a reversing switch. Thus, when the operator operates the mode selector 301a to the chuck adjustment mode, if the reversing switch is in the first position, the control module 66 starts the motor to rotate forward in response to the operation of the mode selector; when the operator operates the mode selector 301a to the chuck adjustment mode, if the reversing switch is in the second position, the control module 66 starts the motor to rotate in reverse in response to the operation of the mode selector; of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the reversing switch may be provided as two separate switches, one of which controls the motor to rotate in the forward direction and the other of which controls the motor to rotate in the reverse direction.

It will be appreciated that the operator may also control the closing and opening of the jaws by the diverter switch and the trigger switch when the hand-held power tool is in the auto chuck mode. In other words, the mode selector 301a is capable of switching the power tool from the drill mode to the chuck adjustment mode, but the reversing of the motor needs to be controlled by a reversing switch, and the starting of the motor needs to be accomplished by a trigger switch. Specifically, after the mode selector 301a is operated and the body 151a is locked, the output gear 1582a is connected to the nut sleeve 154a through the connector 420a in the rotation direction, then the forward/reverse rotation control switch is switched to the first position or the second position, at this time, the trigger switch is operated, the motor 12a is started, and the output gear 1582 drives the nut sleeve 154a to rotate relative to the clamping jaw 152a, so that the clamping jaw 152a is opened or closed to release or lock the tool head.

Referring to fig. 36 and 54, in one embodiment, when an operator grips the handle portion, the operator can simultaneously operate the mode selector 301a with a hand gripping the handle portion. Therefore, when an operator uses the handheld power tool to work, the handheld power tool can be operated and controlled by one hand, the corresponding mode switching function and the closing or opening of the chuck mechanism are realized, the tool head is conveniently released and locked, and the flexibility is high.

Referring to fig. 31-34, 56 and 57, in one embodiment, after operation, the mode selector 301a can control the control module 66 to respond to operation of the mode selector 301a and control the motor to rotate in a predetermined direction, and when the mode selector is operated again to the chuck adjusting mode, the control module 66 can respond to operation of the mode selector 301a and control the motor to rotate in a direction opposite to that of the previous chuck adjusting mode, for example, in the previous chuck adjusting mode, the motor 12a rotates forward, and the mode selector 301a is operated again and the motor 12a rotates backward; if the mode selector 301a is operated to the chuck adjusting mode last time, the control module 66 responds to the operation of the mode selector 301a and controls the motor 12a to rotate reversely, then the mode selector 301a is operated again, and the motor 12a rotates forwards; specifically, the power tool further comprises a trigger mechanism, when the mode selector 301a is operated and the hand-held power tool is in the chuck adjusting mode, the trigger mechanism can generate a trigger signal and transmit the trigger signal to the control module 66, and after receiving the trigger signal, the control module 66 controls the motor to rotate according to the rotation direction of the motor 12a in the previous chuck adjusting mode, that is, after receiving the trigger signal again, the control module controls the motor to rotate in the opposite direction to that in the previous chuck adjusting mode.

Illustratively, after the mode selector 301a moves from the first position to the second position, the hand-held power tool is in the chuck adjusting mode, and at this time, the operation of the mode selector 301a enables the trigger mechanism to be triggered, and the trigger mechanism sends a trigger signal to the control module 66, that is, the trigger mechanism is conducted with the control module, and the control module 66 can control the motor 12a to rotate. When the mode selector 301a returns from the second position to the first position, the mode selector 301a disengages from the trigger mechanism, and at this time, the control module no longer sends the trigger signal to the control module, and the trigger mechanism and the control module 66 form an open circuit, and the control module 66 cannot control the motor 12a to rotate.

In one embodiment, the trigger mechanism includes a switch trigger 306a movable by the mode selector 301a and a bypass switch 308a, and when the mode selector 301a moves and causes the hand-held power tool to be in the chuck adjusting mode, the mode selector 301a can trigger the bypass switch 308a to close by the switch trigger 306a, so that the bypass switch 308a is conducted with the control module 66, and the control module 66 controls the motor 12a to rotate in a predetermined direction. The bypass switch 308a is electrically connected to the control module 66. After the mode selector 301a moves to the second position, the mode selector 301a may trigger the bypass switch 308a via the switch trigger 306a, and at this time, the bypass switch 308a is conducted with the controller, and the controller may control the motor 12a to rotate.

Referring to fig. 46, fig. 46 shows a working schematic diagram of a chuck adjusting mode, when the mode selecting member moves to the second position, that is, is in the chuck adjusting mode, the control module determines whether the motor rotates in the first direction according to whether a trigger signal is received, if the trigger signal is received, the motor is controlled to rotate in the first rotating direction, if not, the motor is not controlled to rotate, when the mode selecting member is triggered again, the control module continues to determine whether the trigger signal is received, if not, the motor does not rotate, and if so, the motor rotates in the second direction.

It is understood that the switch activating member 306a may be disposed on the mode selecting member 301a or may be disposed adjacent to the bypass switch 308 a. Illustratively, the switch trigger 306a may be disposed proximate to the bypass switch 308 a. After the mode selector 301a moves to the second position, the mode selector 301a may activate the switch trigger 306a, such that the switch trigger 306a activates the bypass switch 308a, and at this time, the bypass switch 308a is conducted with the control module 66. Of course, when the switch triggering element 306a is disposed on the mode selecting element 301a, that is, the mode selecting element can drive the switch triggering element 306a to move synchronously, and when the mode selecting element 301a moves to the second position, the switch triggering element 306a can trigger the bypass switch 308a, so that the bypass switch 308a is conducted with the control module 66.

In one embodiment, the triggering mechanism includes a signal detection module electrically connected to the control module 66, and when the mode selector 301a moves and makes the handheld power tool in the chuck adjusting mode, the signal detection module can generate a triggering signal and transmit the triggering signal to the control module 66, and the control module 66 controls the motor 12a to rotate in a predetermined rotation direction according to the triggering signal. That is, the signal detection module is used to identify whether the mode selector 301a moves to the second position, and after the mode selector 301a moves to the second position, the signal detection module can generate a trigger signal, where the trigger signal is equal to the working signal of the above-mentioned embodiment. After the signal detection module transmits the trigger signal to the control module 66, the control module 66 operates, and the control module 66 controls the motor 12a to rotate in the opposite direction of rotation as in the previous chuck mode according to the previous direction of rotation of the motor.

In one embodiment, the hand-held power tool further comprises a power supply, the signal detection module or the trigger mechanism comprises a trigger switch 308a, the trigger switch comprises a first trigger electrically connected to the power supply and a second trigger electrically connected to the control module 66, when the mode selector 301a moves to the second position along the first direction, the first trigger or the second trigger moves under the action of the mode selector 301a and electrically connects the first trigger to the second trigger, so that the trigger switch 308a generates a high level signal and transmits the high level signal to the control module 66 to enable the control module 66 to control the motor 12a to rotate according to the predetermined rotation direction. It is understood that the power supply is a battery pack.

The first trigger element and the second trigger element are in an open circuit state under a normal state. When the operator operates the mode selector 301a, the first trigger and/or the second trigger generate corresponding actions, so that the first trigger is electrically connected to the second trigger, and at this time, the signal detection module generates a high-level signal. The high level signal is the trigger signal of the above embodiment. The control module 66, upon receiving the high signal, controls the motor 12a to rotate in a direction opposite to the previous rotation direction based on the rotation direction of the motor 12a in the previous chuck adjustment mode (i.e., the automatic mode).

Of course, in other embodiments, the signal detection module or the trigger mechanism may also be a sensor, and preferably, the signal detection module or the trigger mechanism includes a magnet disposed on the mode selector 301a and a hall sensor disposed on the housing, and when the mode selector 301a drives the magnet to move to the second position, the hall sensor can generate a detection signal (trigger signal) and transmit the detection signal to the control module, and the control module controls the motor to rotate in a direction opposite to the previous time according to the rotation direction of the motor in the previous chuck adjustment mode after receiving the trigger signal.

In one embodiment, the control module 66 includes a signal processing unit for receiving the trigger signal of the signal detection module and processing the signal according to the rotation direction of the motor 12a in the previous chuck adjusting mode and outputting the signal to the controller, and a controller for controlling the rotation of the motor 12 a. The controller controls the motor 12a to rotate in the opposite direction as in the previous chuck adjustment mode. Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the signal processing unit may be further turned on with the bypass switch 308a, and after the bypass switch 308a is triggered, the signal processing unit may process the signal according to the rotation direction of the motor 12a in the previous chuck adjusting mode and output the signal to the controller, so that the controller controls the motor 12a to rotate in the opposite direction to the previous chuck adjusting mode.

Illustratively, the control module 66 of the present invention includes the signal processing unit and a controller, such as a controller including 6 MOS, and controls the motor 12a to rotate forward or backward through the turn-on sequence of the 6 MOS. It is understood that the signal processing unit and the controller may be separate units, and of course, the signal processing unit and the controller may also be integrated together, that is, the controller has the function of signal processing at the same time.

Optionally, the controller includes, but is not limited to, an MCU, a PLC, or a CPU, and may also be other structures capable of performing a control function, such as a control circuit. Illustratively, the controller is an MCU. The signal processing unit is used for outputting a control signal for controlling the rotation of the motor 12 a.

Specifically, after the operator operates the mode selector 301a, the bypass switch 308a is turned on, and the bypass switch 308a can transmit the high-voltage level signal of the battery pack to the control module 66, and at the same time, the control module (the signal processing unit and the controller) is powered on. The signal processing unit outputs a control signal for controlling the rotation of the motor 12a, and transmits the control signal to the controller, and the controller receives the control signal and controls the motor 12a to rotate according to the preset rotation direction of the control signal. After the mode selector 301a is reset, the signal processing unit and the controller are powered off, and the motor 12a stops rotating. When the battery pack is conducted with the control module 66 by operating the switch trigger by an operator, the signal processing unit and the controller are powered on. In one embodiment, the signal processing unit includes an information storage subunit for storing information (e.g., rotation direction) for controlling the motor 12a to rotate in the previous chuck mode, and a signal output subunit for outputting a control signal to the controller, wherein the information storage subunit is configured to store the control signal for controlling the motor 12a to rotate in the first rotation direction, and when the signal processing unit receives a trigger signal caused by the mode adjusting member to the trigger module, the signal processing unit is configured to modify the control signal and output the control signal to the controller by the signal output subunit, so that the controller controls the motor 12a to rotate in a direction opposite to the previous chuck adjusting mode according to the control signal.

The information storage subunit has a memory function to store and memorize the control signal output by the information output subunit. The control signal in the information storage subunit is transmitted to the controller through the signal output subunit, and the controller controls the motor 12a to rotate around the first rotation direction according to the control signal after receiving the control signal. And, while the controller receives the control signal, the controller feeds back the control signal to the counting unit, so that the counting unit corrects the control signal therein, so that the control signal that previously controlled the motor 12a to rotate in the first rotation direction becomes the control signal that controlled the motor 12a to rotate in the second rotation direction. Thus, when the mode selector 301a is operated next time, the counting unit outputs the modified control signal, and the signal is transmitted to the controller through the signal output unit, and the controller controls the motor 12a to rotate in the second rotation direction according to the control signal, and at the same time, the controller feeds back the control signal to the counting unit, and the counting unit modifies the control signal, so that the control signal that previously controlled the motor 12a to rotate in the second rotation direction becomes the control signal that controlled the motor 12a to rotate in the first rotation direction. The control signal is thus reciprocally corrected, and the rotation direction of the motor 12a is controlled.

It should be noted that the control signal outputted from the counting unit is controlled by the operation signal outputted from the bypass switch 308 a. Specifically, the bypass switch 308a may be triggered to send an operating signal. At this time, the bypass switch 308a may transmit the operation signal to the signal processing unit, and the signal processing unit may send out the control signal stored therein after receiving the operation signal, so that the controller may control the motor 12a to rotate according to the control signal.

Illustratively, the counting unit stores therein a control signal for controlling the motor 12a to rotate in the first rotational direction. After the operation mode selector 301a moves to the second position, the bypass switch 308a sends a working signal to the signal processing unit, so that the first control signal in the counting unit is transmitted to the controller through the output signal unit, and the controller controls the motor 12a to rotate around the first rotation direction according to the first control signal. And when the controller receives the first control signal, the controller feeds the first control signal back to the counting unit, so that the counting unit corrects the first control signal into a second control signal. When the mode selector 301a is operated again to move to the second position, the bypass switch 308a sends a working signal to the signal processing unit, so that the counting unit outputs a second control signal, the second control signal is transmitted to the controller through the signal output unit, the controller controls the motor 12a to rotate in the second rotation direction according to the second control signal, meanwhile, the controller feeds the second control signal back to the counting unit, and the counting unit corrects the second control signal to become the first control signal.

Further, the information storage subunit stores and modifies the information in such a manner that the units in the information storage unit are counted in a manner that i is 0 or i is 1. Illustratively, the counting unit outputs a first control signal when i is 0, and outputs a second control signal when i is 1. Of course, the counting unit may output the second control signal when i is equal to 0, and the counting unit may output the first control signal when i is equal to 1.

The number in the information storage subunit is i ═ 0. After the operation mode selector 301a moves to the second position, the bypass switch 308a sends a working signal to the signal processing unit, the signal processing unit reads i ═ 0 in the signal storage subunit to generate a first control signal, the first control signal is transmitted to the controller through the output signal unit, and the controller controls the motor 12a to rotate around the first rotation direction according to the first control signal. And, while the controller receives the first control signal, the controller feeds back the first control signal to the counting unit so that the number in the information storage subunit changes from i-0 to i-1. When the mode selector 301a is operated again to move to the second position, the bypass switch 308a sends an operating signal to the signal processing unit, the signal processing unit reads i-1 to generate a second control signal, the second control signal is transmitted to the controller through the output signal unit, the controller controls the motor 12a to rotate in the second rotation direction according to the second control signal, and meanwhile, the controller feeds back the second control signal to the information storage subunit, so that the number of the information storage subunit is changed from i-1 to i-0.

Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the information storage subunit may count the operation times of the mode selector 301a (i.e. the number of times the mode selector triggers the trigger mechanism), such as odd times and even times. And outputting the first control signal for odd times and outputting the second control signal for even times.

In the present application, the information storage subunit is used for storing and memorizing the last rotation direction information of the motor, so that the rotation direction of the motor in the next chuck adjusting mode is opposite to the last rotation direction, and it should be noted that the information storage and memorizing function may be long-term or short-term. For example, when the information is stored and memorized for a long period of time, the rotation direction of the motor in the next chuck adjusting mode is opposite to the rotation direction in the previous time at any time. In other embodiments, of course, the information storage subunit may have a time limit to the storage and memorization of confidence that the motor will rotate in the opposite direction to the previous time only if the time from the last release or closure of the jaws to the next release or closure of the jaws is less than the predetermined time. Such as a predetermined time of less than 5s or 10s or other value. The logic for control in this manner can be seen in fig. 47, in which, specifically, the mode selecting element is triggered, if not, the motor does not rotate, and if so, the motor rotates in the first direction; and operating the mode selection piece again, judging whether the control module receives the trigger signal and whether the control module operates within the preset time, if so, rotating the motor in a second direction opposite to the last time, and if the control module receives the trigger signal and the time exceeds the preset time, rotating the motor in the first rotating direction by default. Of course, if the control module does not receive the trigger signal, the motor does not rotate.

In one embodiment, the mode selector 301a is a push-type structure. That is, the mode selector 301a and the trigger are both press-type. When the operator presses the mode selector 301a, the mode selector 301a moves from the first position to the second position, and the locking member 130a locks the body 151a circumferentially, so that the body 151a cannot rotate relative to the housing. When the operator releases the mode selector 301a, the mode selector 301a automatically resets, the locking member 130a disengages from the body 151a, and the body 151a can rotate relative to the housing. Of course, the mode selector 301a may also be a slide type button, a toggle button, or the like in other embodiments of the present invention.

In one embodiment, the mode selector 301a is disposed adjacent to the toggle switch. It is understood that the mode selector 301a may be located above the trigger, either directly above or obliquely above. Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the mode selector 301a may also be located below or otherwise proximate to the switch trigger. Therefore, the mode selection piece 301a can be ensured to be positioned near the switch panel machine, when an operator holds the handle part by a single hand, the mode selection piece 301a can be operated by one held finger, so that the single-hand operation is realized: meanwhile, the tool head (such as a batch head or other tools) can be supported by the other hand, the controllability of the whole tool head in the dismounting process is good, and the user experience is optimized.

Illustratively, the mode selector 301a is located above the toggle switch. When the mode selector 301a is in the first position, the operator can press the switch trigger in the curved direction of the gripping fingers while gripping the handle portion to move the switch trigger toward the position close to the palm of the hand to activate the motor 12 a.

In one embodiment, the control module 66 further includes an interlock control unit that causes the motor 12a to no longer rotate in accordance with operation of one of the mode selector 301a or the switch trigger when the motor 12a is activated by the other. That is, when one of the trigger and the mode operator is electrically connected to the control module 66, the other is short-circuited to the control module 66, and no matter how pressed, it is not effective. Illustratively, when the mode selector 301a controls the bypass switch 308a to turn on the control module 66, the interlock unit causes the toggle switch to open the control module 66, and the toggle switch does not operate regardless of how the toggle switch is pressed. This ensures the safety of the hand-held power tool during operation.

The controller has a flag indicating that the controller is powered off when the flag of the controller is N equal to 0, and the controller is not able to control the rotation of the motor 12a because the controller is powered off with the trigger switch and the mode operation element. When the flag bit of the controller is N ═ 1, it indicates that the controller is energized, and the controller can control the rotation of the motor 12a through a path between the controller and the switch trigger or the mode operation member. When one of the switching trigger and the mode operation member is connected with the controller as a passage, the flag bit of the controller is changed from N-0 to N-1, and when the other of the switching trigger and the mode operation member gives a switching signal, the flag bit of the controller is N-1, so that the circuit which is already connected is not influenced. That is, when one of the trigger and the mode operator is in the power circuit, the other element is disabled.

It should be noted that the manner of controlling the forward rotation and the reverse rotation of the motor 12a by the mode selector 301a in the present embodiment is not limited to the present embodiment, and may be applied to other embodiments, for example, as long as the movement of the mode selector 301a between the first position and the second position is a linear movement. Illustratively, the manner of controlling the normal rotation and the reverse rotation of the motor 12a by the mode selector 301a may also be applied to the third embodiment, and only a simple deformation of the trigger mechanism is required.

The present invention also provides a method for closing and opening the jaws 152a of a hand-held power tool, which is applied to the hand-held power tool of any of the above embodiments, to control the mode selector 301a to automatically control the rotation of the motor 12a for locking or releasing. The control method comprises the following steps:

s1: operating the mode selector with a hand holding the handle portion to move the mode selector from the first position to the second position; s2: a release mode selector; s3: moving the mode selector member from the first position to the second position again with the hand holding the handle portion; s4: the mode selector is released.

Before the operation mode selection member moves from the first position to the second position, the operation mode selection member also moves from the initial position to the first position. Preferably, the movement of the operating mode selector member from the first position to the second position is a linear movement and the movement of the operating mode selector member from the initial position to the first position is a rotational movement. Preferably, the direction of linear movement of the mode selection member from the first position to the second position is a first direction along the axial direction of the motor, wherein the first direction is a direction away from the chuck mechanism and closer to the motor, and the operation mode selection member rotates from the initial position to the first position as the mode selection member rotates about the pivot axis.

Preferably, in the step S1, the motor rotates in a first rotation direction, and in the step S3, the motor rotates in a second rotation direction opposite to the first rotation direction.

When the rotation direction of the motor is controlled by the reversing switch in the chuck adjusting mode, the operation method is as follows, S10: operating the reversing switch by a hand holding the handle part to move the reversing switch to a first control position or a second control position; s11: operating a mode selector member with a hand holding the handle portion to move the mode selector member from a first position to a second position; s12: the mode selector is released.

Referring to fig. 57, fig. 57 shows the connection of the trigger switch, the reversing switch, the control module, the trigger mechanism, and the bypass switch. The electric tool comprises two parallel circuits capable of controlling the rotation direction of the motor, when the mode selection piece is positioned at the second position, the first switch is triggered (the bypass switch 308a), the handheld power tool is positioned in a starting chuck adjusting mode, the first switch is triggered to start the first control circuit, and the motor is controlled to rotate forwards or backwards independently of the reversing switch according to a preset mode; or the trigger switch is triggered to start the second control circuit to control the motor to rotate forwards or backwards according to the reversing signal of the reversing switch. When the mode selecting piece is at the first position, the second control circuit is started to control the motor to rotate forwards or backwards according to the reversing signal of the reversing switch. The step of starting the first control circuit and controlling the motor to rotate forwards or backwards according to a preset mode irrelevant to the reversing switch comprises the following steps: the control module judges whether the signal detection mode (namely the trigger switch) generates a trigger signal; if yes, controlling the motor to rotate according to a preset first direction, wherein the first direction is forward rotation or reverse rotation; triggering the first switch again, and judging whether the signal detection module detects a trigger signal; if so, the motor is controlled to rotate in a second direction opposite to the first direction. When the first switch is triggered again, the step of judging whether the signal detection module detects the trigger signal comprises the following steps: and judging whether the first switch is triggered again, and controlling the motor to rotate in a second direction opposite to the first direction if the signal detection module detects that the time of the trigger signal meets the preset first time. Judging whether the signal detection mode detects a trigger signal or not; if so, controlling the motor to rotate according to a preset direction, namely a first direction, and modifying the preset direction into a second direction opposite to the first direction, wherein the first direction is forward rotation or reverse rotation; triggering the first switch again, and judging whether the signal detection module detects a trigger signal; if so, controlling the motor to rotate according to a preset second direction, and modifying the preset direction into the first direction. The trigger switch triggers, starts the second control circuit, and the step that the control motor corotates or reverses according to the turn signal corotation of change-over switch includes: the trigger switch is triggered to start the second control circuit; the control module acquires a current steering signal of the reversing switch; the control module controls the motor to control the motor to rotate forwards or backwards according to the current steering signal. When the first control circuit is started, the motor is controlled to rotate forwards or backwards according to a preset mode irrelevant to the reversing switch, and at the moment, the control module shields a trigger signal of a trigger switch; when the second control circuit is started, the motor is controlled to rotate forwards or backwards according to the position of the reversing switch, and at the moment, the control module shields the trigger signal of the first switch.

When the operator controls the jaws 152a of the hand-held power tool to close or open, the operation mode selector 301a moves from the first position to the second position, so that the hand-held power tool is in the chuck adjustment mode, and the signal detection module can generate a trigger signal and transmit the trigger signal to the control module 66. After receiving the trigger signal, the control module 66 can process the trigger signal according to the rotation direction, so that the motor 12a rotates in a preset first rotation direction, at this time, the motor 12a can drive the nut sleeve 154a to rotate relative to the clamping jaw 152a through the output gear 1582, and one of closing and opening of the clamping jaw 152a is realized, for example, the clamping jaw 152a closes to lock the tool head.

The mode selector 301a is again operated to move from the first position to the second position to place the hand held power tool in the chuck adjustment mode, and the signal detection module is capable of generating and transmitting a trigger signal to the control module 66. After receiving the trigger signal, the control module 66 can process the trigger signal according to the rotation direction, so that the motor 12a rotates in the preset second rotation direction, at this time, the motor 12a can drive the nut sleeve 154a to rotate relative to the clamping jaw 152a through the output gear 1582, and another action of closing or opening the clamping jaw 152a is realized, for example, the clamping jaw 152a opens to release the tool bit.

In one embodiment, the signal detection module includes a bypass switch 308a, and the step of generating and outputting the trigger signal to the control module 66 includes: operating the mode selector 301a to the chuck adjustment mode closes the bypass switch 308a, and the bypass switch 308a outputs a high signal to the control module 66.

After the operator operates the mode selector 301a, the mode selector 301a moves to enable the handheld power tool to be in the chuck adjusting mode, and the mode selector 301a can trigger the bypass switch 308a to be closed through the switch trigger 306a, so that the bypass switch 308a is closed and further conducted with the control module 66, at this time, the bypass switch 308a can output an operating signal to the controller, and the control module 66 can control the motor 12a to rotate in a predetermined direction. It is understood that the working signal is the trigger signal, and optionally, the working signal is a high level signal.

In one embodiment, the operation mode selecting element 301a to the chuck adjusting mode closes the bypass switch 308a, and the step of the bypass switch 308a outputting the high level signal to the control module 66 further comprises: the operation mode selector 301a is reset by the mode reset element to turn off the bypass switch 308a, and the bypass switch 308a cannot output a high-level signal.

When the closing and opening operations of the clamping jaw 152a are completed, the mode selecting member 301a returns from the second position to the first position at the mode resetting element, at this time, the bypass switch 308a forms an open circuit with the controller, the bypass switch 308a cannot output a working signal, and the control module 66 cannot control the motor 12a to rotate.

Fifth embodiment

Fig. 43-53 are schematic views of a fifth embodiment of a screwdriver 10b of the present invention, the screwdriver 10b including a housing, a motor 12b, a battery for supplying power, a transmission, and a collet assembly including a collet housing (front housing) 1104b and an output device 15b at least partially within the collet housing 1104 b. Specifically, the housing includes a rear housing 1103b extending in a horizontal direction and a handle housing 1102b fixedly connected to the rear housing 1103b to form a grip handle, a collet housing 1104b (front housing) abuts against the rear housing 1103b to form a main housing extending in the horizontal direction, and the main housing forms a housing chamber for housing at least a part of the output device 15 b.

The motor 12b is provided in the housing, and outputs rotational power. The output device 15b includes an output shaft 150b, and the output shaft 150b is provided with a receiving hole 1500b for receiving a tool bit. The transmission mechanism is located between the motor 12b and the output device 15b to transmit the rotational power of the motor 12b to the output device 15 b. The mode selection mechanism is used to switch the screwdriver 10b between at least a drilling mode or a chuck adjustment mode.

Referring to fig. 43-44, the output shaft 150b includes a body 151b, a clamping jaw (not shown) disposed around the receiving hole 1500b for clamping the tool bit, and a clamping groove 153b disposed on the body 151b for receiving the clamping jaw, the output device 15a further includes an output planet wheel 1581b, an output ring gear 1582b disposed outside the output planet wheel 1581b, and an adjusting member disposed outside the body 151b and capable of rotating relative to the body 151b and the clamping jaw to lock or unlock the clamping jaw, the adjusting member includes a nut sleeve 154b, an inner circumferential wall of the nut sleeve 154b is provided with an inner thread (not shown), a side of the clamping jaw facing the inner thread is provided with an outer thread, and when the nut sleeve 154b rotates relative to the clamping jaw, an interaction between the inner thread and the outer thread causes the clamping jaw to perform an opening or closing action. The transmission mechanism is provided with an output sun gear 1583b for driving the output planet gear 1581b to rotate.

Referring to fig. 43 to 50, the mode selection mechanism includes a coupling member 420b capable of coupling the output ring gear 1582b with the adjuster by moving in the axial direction of the motor shaft by the mode selection member 301b, and a lock member 130b capable of selectively preventing the output ring gear 1582b or the body 151b from rotating. The locking member 130b is non-rotatably arranged with respect to the housing. When the tool head is in a drilling mode (see fig. 43-46), the locking element 130b is separated from the body 151b and is connected with the output gear 1582b to prevent the output gear 1582b from rotating circumferentially, and power between the output gear 1582b and the adjusting piece is disconnected under the action of the connector 420b, so that the body 151b and the clamping jaws can rotate under the driving of the motor 12b to drive the tool head to perform work; when the screwdriver 10b is switched from the drilling mode to the chuck adjusting mode (see fig. 47-50), the locking element 130b is connected with the body 151b and disconnected with the output gear ring 1582b to prevent the body 151b from rotating circumferentially and remove the circumferential limitation on the output gear ring 1582b, and the output gear ring 1582b and the adjusting piece are connected under the action of the connector 420b, so that the output gear ring 1582b can drive the adjusting piece to rotate relative to the body 151b and the clamping jaws under the action of the motor 12b to realize the opening or closing of the clamping jaws. Therefore, the locking member 130b in the present embodiment includes both the body lock for locking the body 151b and the inner ring lock for locking the output ring gear 1582b, in other words, the body lock for locking the body 151b and the inner ring lock for locking the output ring gear 1582b are inseparably connected or integrally formed, as in the first embodiment described above, unlike the first embodiment described above, the present embodiment is implemented by providing the connecting member 420b such that the output ring gear 1582b and the adjusting member are connected in the rotation direction in the autochuck mode, but the output ring gear 1582b and the adjusting member are disconnected in the rotation direction in the drill mode, rather than by axially moving the output ring gear 1582 b.

Referring to fig. 51, the mode selection mechanism includes a bracket 140 slidably disposed on the housing, a first push rod assembly 451b and a mode connection member 302 b. The bracket 140 includes a first sliding section 1401 extending in the axial direction of the motor shaft and a second sliding section 1403 provided perpendicular to the first sliding section 1401. The mode connector 302b is located between the second sliding section 1403 and the first push rod assembly 451b and is linked with the first push rod assembly 451b to transmit the motion of the mode selector 301b to the first push rod assembly 451b, thereby realizing the mode switching of the hand-held power tool.

It will be appreciated that the mode link 302b is rotatable relative to the bracket between a first operative position and a second operative position. After the mode connector 302b is rotated to be at the first operation position, the mode connector 302b can be pressed and the bracket 140 is driven to move, so that the body is circumferentially locked through the locking element, and the mode switching of the handheld power tool is realized. When the rotary trigger is in the second operating position, the mode link 302b is free and can rotate relative to the bracket 140. When the operator operates the mode connector 302b, the operator cannot move the bracket 140.

It should be noted that when the mode connector 302b is in the first operating position, the mode connector 302b moves to the extreme position, and the operating mode connector 302b can drive the bracket 140 to move synchronously. Also, the mode link 302b can only rotate between the first and second operating positions. When the mode connector 302b is in the second operating position, the mode connector 302b rotates relative to the bracket 140 when the operator touches the mode connector 302b because the mode connector 302b is not restricted from moving to the first operating position. Therefore, when the mode switching is required, the mode connector 302b can be rotated to the first operation position, and after the mode switching is completed, the mode connector 302b can be rotated from the first operation position to the second operation position.

After the mode connector 302b is set, the control buttons of the drill mode or auto chuck mode can be conveniently recognized by an operator. Specifically, when the hand-held power tool is in the drill mode, an operator needs to operate the trigger. If the operator touches the mode connector 302b, the mode connector 302b will rotate relative to the bracket 140, so that the operator can clearly know that the operation position of the finger is misplaced and needs to be readjusted. When the hand-held power tool needs to be switched to the auto chuck mode, the operator's finger contacts the mode connector 302b, the mode connector 302b moves from the second operating position to the first operating position, and then presses the mode connector 302b to move the bracket 140 from the first position to the second position via the mode connector 302 b.

In addition, the mode connector 302b can increase the operation area of the mode selector, so that the mode selector can be operated conveniently by an operator, and the operator can be prevented from pressing wrong operation keys. For example, when the mode selector and the trigger are both in the push mode, the operator can clearly know whether the wrong button is pressed due to the configuration of the mode connector 302 b.

Illustratively, the first operating position is a vertical position, the second operating position is an inclined position, and the tail end of the rotating movable piece is inclined towards a direction away from the first operating position. Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the first operating position and the second operating position may be other positions that are easy to be mentioned above.

In this embodiment, the second sliding section 1403 of the bracket 140 is U-shaped and faces away from the first sliding section 1401, the first push rod assembly 451b is connected to the open end of the second sliding section 1403 in a matching manner, and the mode connection member 302b is a U-shaped elastic steel wire with an opening facing the first push rod assembly 451b, and drives the first push rod assembly 451b to link the locking element 130b and the connection member 420b under the action of external force.

The first push rod assembly 451b includes a first link 4513b and a mode connector 302b for connecting the first link 4513b to one end of the first link 4513b, and the other end is connected to the locking member 130b and the connector 420b together, so as to drive the locking member 130b and the connector 402b to move back and forth in a synchronous axial direction.

As with the fourth embodiment, referring to fig. 43-46, when the screwdriver 10b is in the drill mode, the locking member 130b is disengaged from the engaging teeth (not shown) on the body 151b and engages with the engaging teeth portion (not shown) of the output ring gear 1582b, and the output ring gear 1582b is fixed relative to the housing; at the same time, the attachment 420b is disengaged from the output ring gear 1582 b.

Referring to fig. 47-48, when the screwdriver 10b is switched from the drill mode to the auto chuck mode, the locking element 130b and the connector 420b are moved axially rearward by the first link 4513b, and after the locking element 130b is disconnected from the output ring gear 1582b, the locking element 130b continues to move into engagement with the engagement teeth on the body 151b, and accordingly, the connector 420b engages with the engagement teeth of the output ring gear 1582 b.

It should be noted that, in order to avoid the phenomenon that the motor 12b is locked when the coupling 420b is engaged with the output ring gear 1582b when the locking member 130b is not yet disengaged from the output ring gear 1582b, in the present embodiment, the axial distance d1 between the coupling 420b and the output ring gear 1582b is preferably greater than or equal to the axial length L1 of the output ring gear 1582 b. Preferably, the axial distance d1 between the connector 420b and the output ring gear 1582b in the present embodiment is equal to or greater than the axial length L1 of the output ring gear 1582a, which means that the distance from the side of the connector 420b close to the output ring gear 1582b to the side of the locking element 130b close to the output ring gear 1582b is d1, the distance between two side end faces of the output ring gear 1582b in the axial direction is L1 (not shown in the figure), and d1 is equal to or greater than L1. Where d1 is equal to or greater than L1 to avoid stalling of the motor 12b when the coupling 420b engages the output ring gear 1582b when the locking member 130b has not disengaged the output ring gear 1582b, it will be appreciated that in other embodiments the axial spacing d1 between the coupling 420b and the output ring gear 1582b is equal to or greater than the axial length L1 of the output ring gear 1582 a. it will also be appreciated that the axial spacing between the coupling 420d and the locking member 130d is such that the engagement teeth of the output ring gear 1582d do not simultaneously engage the engagement teeth of the coupling 420d and the engagement teeth of the locking member 130 d.

Referring to fig. 49-50, when the screwdriver 10a is switched to the auto chuck mode, the locking member 130a disengages from the meshing teeth of the output ring gear 1582a and engages with the meshing teeth on the body 151a, the body 151a is locked in the rotational direction, and the coupling member 420a couples both the output ring gear 1582a and the first clutch member 21a, so that the adjustment member can be rotated relative to the body to effect opening or closing of the jaws.

Referring again to fig. 43-50, the screwdriver 10b further includes a clutch mechanism 20b disposed between the adjusting member and the output ring gear 1582b for disconnecting torque transmission between the output ring gear 1582b and the adjusting member in the auto chuck mode after the jaws are opened or closed, wherein the clutch mechanism 20b includes a first clutch member 21b rotatably connected to the output ring gear 1582b, a second clutch member 22b rotatably connected to the adjusting member and axially movable relative to the adjusting member, and a clutch elastic member 23 b. In this embodiment, the clutch spring 23b is located between the second clutch 22b and the chuck housing 1104b (front housing), and when the jaws are tightened or fully opened, the second clutch 22b compresses the clutch spring 23b, the second clutch 22b moves axially forward, the first clutch 21b disengages from the second clutch 22b, and the output ring gear 1582b no longer transmits torque to the adjuster (nut sleeve 154 a). Preferably, the first clutch member 21b is a snap ring sleeved on the outer periphery of the body 151b, the snap ring is provided with a clutch tooth groove (not shown, refer to fig. 31 in particular) extending axially, and the connecting member 420b is provided with a connecting tooth (not shown, refer to fig. 31 in particular) engaged with the clutch tooth groove. In this embodiment, the connection member 420b is normally engaged with the first clutch member 21b, that is, the connection teeth are always located in the clutch tooth space, and the connection between the first clutch member 21b and the output gear ring 1582b is realized by the connection teeth moving axially backward in the clutch tooth space, that is, moving axially toward the direction close to the output gear ring 1582 b. Of course, it is understood that the clutch structure 20b may be disposed in other ways in other embodiments, such as the elastic clutch member 23b is located between the first clutch member 21b and the housing 11b, when the jaws are clamped or completely opened, the first clutch member 21b compresses the elastic clutch member 23a, the first clutch member 21b moves axially, the first clutch member 21b is disengaged from the second clutch member 22b, and the output ring gear 1582b no longer transmits torque to the nut sleeve 154 b.

Referring to fig. 43-50, the mode selection mechanism further includes a mode selector 301b movable relative to the housing between a first position and a second position, the hand-held power tool 10b being in a drilling mode when the mode selector 301b is in the first position; when the mode selector 301b is in the second position, the hand-held power tool 10b is in the chuck adjustment mode; when the mode selector 301b moves from the first position to the second position, the mode selector 301b moves in a direction away from the first end (the output shaft 150b has an end provided with the receiving hole 1500b in the axial direction). In this embodiment, the movement of the mode selector 301b between the first position and the second position is a movement in the axial direction of the motor shaft, i.e., the mode selector 301b moves between the first position and the second position in the front-rear direction of the main housing 1101.

Referring also to fig. 51, the mode selector 301b is pivoted to the end of the first sliding section 1401 not connected to the second sliding section 1403 and exposed to the handle portion, and is disposed adjacent to a switch trigger for controlling the motor 12b disposed on the handle portion so as to be rotatable between an initial position and a first position relative to the bracket 140. Specifically, one of the mode selector 301b and the main body is provided with a latch 3010, and the other is provided with a latch groove (not shown).

With continued reference to fig. 43-50, when the mode selector 301b is at the initial position, the latch 3010 is engaged with the slot, and the mode selector 301b is locked with respect to the housing and cannot pivot with respect to the bracket 140, so as to prevent the mode selector 301b from being easily activated by accidental touch. When the mode selector 301b is switched from the initial position to the first position, the latch 3010 is disengaged from the limit of the latch, and the mode selector 301b can be normally actuated by an external force to move between the first position and the second position, so that the handheld power tool can be switched between at least the drilling mode and the chuck adjusting mode.

The mode selection mechanism further comprises a first return elastic member (not shown) which is connected between the bracket 140 and the housing in a deformable manner, and is used for storing energy when the hand-held power tool is switched from the drill mode to the auto chuck mode; when the hand-held power tool is switched from the auto chuck mode to the drill mode, the first return elastic element releases energy, and the driving mode selection element 301b moves from the second position to the first position, so that the hand-held power tool drill mode is switched.

Specifically, when the mode selector 301b moves from the first position to the second position under the action of an external force, the first sliding section 1401 and the second sliding section 1403 are synchronously linked in the same direction (i.e. move backward), so as to drive the first link 4513b to drive the locking element 130b and the link 420b to move backward in the axial direction. At this time, the first return elastic member is charged, the locking member 130b is connected to the body 151b in the rotation direction, the body 151b is locked, and the connecting member 420b is axially moved backward and then connected to the output ring gear 1582b, so that the screwdriver is switched to the autochouck mode.

When the external force disappears, the first elastic restoring member releases energy, the bracket 140 moves from the back to the front under the action of the elastic force, and the driving mode selecting member 301b moves from the second position to the first position under the action of the elastic force, and drives the first link 4513b to drive the locking member 130b and the connecting member 420b to move axially forward. At this time, the connecting piece 420b is located on the side, away from the motor 12b, of the output gear ring 1582b and is connected with the adjusting piece in a non-relative-rotation mode, the locking element 130b is located at the second locking position, the locking element 130b releases circumferential locking on the body 151b through axial movement and circumferentially locks the output gear ring 1582b, meanwhile, the connecting piece 420b is disconnected between the output gear ring 1582b and the adjusting piece, and the output planetary gear 1581b can drive the body 151b and the clamping jaws located in the body 151b to rotate together.

The transmission mechanism is located between the motor 12b and the output device 15b, and comprises a gear ring gear capable of shifting in a shaft mode so that the transmission mechanism can output at least two different first transmission ratios and second transmission ratios, and the handheld power tool at least has a low speed position corresponding to the first transmission ratio and a high speed position corresponding to the second transmission ratio.

In the same manner as the first embodiment, the transmission mechanism is a planetary gear reduction mechanism 13b, and the planetary gear reduction mechanism 13b is preferably a two-stage planetary gear reduction mechanism including a first-stage planetary gear train adjacent to the motor and a second-stage planetary gear train adjacent to the output device 15 b. The first-stage planetary gear set 131b includes a first sun gear 1310b fixed to the motor shaft 121b, a first planet gear 1311b engaged with the first sun gear 1310b and disposed at an outer periphery of the first sun gear 1310b, a first ring gear 1312b engaged with the first planet gear 1311b, and a first planet carrier 1313b for supporting the first planet gear 1311b, and the second-stage planetary gear set 132b includes a second sun gear 1320b fixedly disposed on the first planet carrier 1313b, a second planet gear 1321b engaged with the second sun gear 1320b, a second ring gear 1322b engaged with the second planet gear 1321b, and a second planet carrier 1323b for supporting the second planet gear 1321 b. Second ring gear 1322b (i.e., equivalent to a shift ring gear in the present embodiment) is movable along 121b with respect to the housing between a first shift position close to the electric motor and a second shift position away from the motor. When the second ring gear 1322b is located at the first shift position, the second ring gear 1322b is rotatably disposed in the housing, and the second ring gear 1322b is engaged with the first planet carrier 1313b and the second planet gear 1321b at the same time, so that the first planet carrier 1313b, the second planet gear 1321b and the second ring gear 1322b rotate together, the second-stage planetary gear set 132b does not output a reduced speed, that is, the second planet carrier 1323b rotates at the same speed as the first planet carrier 1313b, and the second planet carrier 1323b outputs a high speed. When the second ring gear 1322b is located at the second shift position, the second ring gear 1322b is circumferentially fixed to the rear housing 110b in a non-rotatable manner, and the second ring gear 1322b is disengaged from the first carrier 1313b during axial movement but the second ring gear 1322b is still engaged with the second planet gears 1321b, so that the second carrier 1323b outputs at a predetermined reduction gear ratio with respect to the first carrier 1313b, and the second carrier 1323b outputs a low speed. Meanwhile, when the mode selector 301b moves from the first position to the second position, the second ring gear 1322b (i.e., the shift ring gear) can be moved to the first shift position.

Referring to fig. 51-53, in the embodiment, when the mode selector 301b is switched from the first position to the second position (i.e. the handheld power tool is switched from the drill mode to the chuck adjusting mode), the mode selector 301b can be synchronously switched to the second speed changing position (i.e. the low speed position) in conjunction with the second annular gear 1322 b; and at the same time, when the mode selecting member 301b returns to the first position, the speed selecting member 1450 drives the second ring gear 1322b to return to the first speed changing position (i.e., the high speed position) under the elastic force of the second restoring elastic member 1451. Therefore, high-speed and low-speed switching is not influenced in the drill mode; when in auto chuck mode, the hand-held power tool is forced to be in low speed operation state, and when returning to drill mode, the original high-low speed gear position is not influenced.

Specifically, the hand-held power tool further includes a speed selecting member 1450 connected to the speed changing ring gear (i.e., the second ring gear 1322b in the present embodiment) to move the speed changing ring gear at the first and second speed changing positions, a second return elastic member 1451 (see fig. 45) located between the housing and the speed selecting member 1450, a main switching member 1452, and an auxiliary switching member 1453.

The speed selection member 1450 is movably coupled to the housing and is movable relative to the housing in an axial direction of the motor shaft by an external force. The main switching member 1452 is rotatable about an axis relative to the housing and is drivingly connected between the speed selecting member 1450 and the speed ring gear for switching the hand-held power tool between at least a low speed position and a high speed position in response to movement of the speed selecting member 1450. The auxiliary switch 1453 has one end connected to the speed selector 1450 and the other end detachably connected to the first link 4513b to forcibly set the hand-held power tool in the auto-chuck mode to the low-speed operation state, and does not affect the original high-low speed gear when returning to the drill mode.

The speed selector 1450 includes a dial button body 14501 and a dial button 14502, the dial button body 14501 is substantially square plate-shaped, and two fitting locations 14503 are arranged along the moving direction of the speed selector 1450, and the main switch 1452 and the auxiliary switch 1453 are sequentially fitted into the fitting locations 14503 along the moving direction of the speed selector 1450 from the high speed location to the low speed location. The dial 14502 includes a button body 14502a and a protrusion 14502b protruding from a surface of the button body 14502a facing the dial body 14501, and the protrusion 14502b is engaged with the mounting portion 14503 of the main switch 14502. When the dial button 14502 moves from the back to the front, the knob body 14501 is moved by the protrusion 14502b abutting against the main switch 14502, after the knob 14502 is moved to the right position, the protrusion 14502b can still limit the main switch 14502 to prevent the main switch from moving by mistake, and after the knob 14502 is moved to the right position, the knob 14502 can be fixed relative to the case by clamping with the case, etc. to complete the speed switching of the power tool.

The second elastic element 1451 is disposed between the toggle body 14501 and the housing (specifically, the gearbox housing) for providing a restoring force for the speed selecting member 1450 to move from the low-speed position to the high-speed position.

The main switch 1452 includes a first free end 14521 and a second free end 14522 respectively disposed at two sides of its pivot point with respect to the housing. First free end 14521 is connected to speed select member 1450, and second free end 14522 is connected to the speed ring gear; and the first free end 14521 and the second free end 14522 rotate in opposite directions around the pivot point under the action of external force.

Specifically, the first free end 14521 is generally arcuate in configuration and is snap-fit within one of the mounting locations 14503. The second free end 14522 is formed by bending the end of the first free end 14521 in an opposite manner and hooked on the shift ring gear to drive the shift ring gear to switch between the first shift position and the second shift position under the action of an external force.

The auxiliary switching element 1453 includes a third free end 14531 and a fourth free end 14532 respectively disposed at two sides of the pivot point between itself and the housing. The third free end 14531 is connected to the speed selector 1450, and the fourth free end 14532 is detachably abutted to the first link 4513 b; and the third free end 14531 and the fourth free end 14532 rotate in opposite directions around the pivot point under the action of external force.

Specifically, the third free end 14531 is generally arcuate in configuration and is snap-fit into one of the mounting locations 14503. The fourth free end 14532 is formed by bending the end of the third free end 14531 away from each other and is located on the moving path of the first link 4513b along the axial direction of the motor shaft.

Preferably, the main switch 1452 and the auxiliary switch 1453 are pivotally connected to the housing in a parallel manner, i.e. the first free end 14521 of the main switch 1452 and the third free end 14531 of the auxiliary switch 1453 are located on the same side of the pivot, and the second free end 14522 of the main switch 1452 and the fourth free end 14532 of the auxiliary switch 1453 are located on the same side of the pivot.

Referring to fig. 43-46, when the hand-held power tool is in the low gear of the drill, the speed selecting member 1450 is located at the front, the first free end 14521 of the main switch 1452 and the third free end 14531 of the auxiliary switch 1453 are located at the side of the respective pivot point close to the first link 4513b, and the second free end 14522 of the main switch 1452 and the fourth free end 14532 of the auxiliary switch 1453 are located at the side of the respective pivot point away from the first link 4513 b. At this time, the fourth free end 14532 of the auxiliary switch 1453 is spaced apart from the end of the first link 4513 b.

When the hand-held power tool is switched from the drill low gear to the auto chuck mode, the mode selector 301b is pressed to drive the first link 4513b to move backward to abut against the fourth free end 14532 of the auxiliary switch 1453, so that the speed selector 1450 cannot be switched from the low gear to the high gear under the action of external force, and the original low gear is always maintained in the auto chuck mode.

When the mode selector 301b is released, the hand-held power tool is returned to the drill mode by the auto-chuck mode through the first return elastic member, and the distal end of the first link 4513b is returned in a direction away from the fourth free end 14532 of the auxiliary switch 1453 and is spaced apart from the fourth free end 14532 of the auxiliary switch 1453. At this time, the main switching member 1452 can be driven by operating the speed selecting member 1450 to freely switch between the high and low gears.

Referring to fig. 47-48, when switching from the drill high gear to the auto-chuck mode, the speed selector 1450 is located at the rear, the first free end 14521 of the main switch 1452 and the third free end 14531 of the auxiliary switch 1453 are located at the side of the respective pivot point away from the first link 4513b, and the second free end 14522 of the main switch 1452 and the fourth free end 14532 of the auxiliary switch 1453 are located at the side of the respective pivot point close to the first link 4513 b. Since the fourth free end 14532 of the auxiliary switch 1453 is located on the moving path of the first link 4513b moving from the forward to the backward direction, when the mode selector 301b is pressed, the first link 4513b is driven to move backward, the first link 4513b will abut against the fourth free end 14532 of the auxiliary switch 1453 to move backward, the fourth free end 14532 of the auxiliary switch 1453 is pivoted to drive the speed selector 1450 to move forward, so that the main switch 1452 is forced to move the speed ring from the first speed-changing position (high speed position) to the second speed-changing position (low speed position), and the auto-chuck mode is ensured to always maintain the low speed position.

When the mode selector 301b is released, the hand-held power tool returns to the drill mode from the auto-chuck mode through the first return elastic member, and the speed selector 1450, which is disengaged from the first link 4513b, returns to the high speed state under the action of the second return elastic member 1451, so that the original high speed gear in the drill state is not changed.

Through the design of the scheme, high-speed and low-speed switching is not influenced when the drill is in the automatic mode, the handheld power tool is forced to be in a low-speed running state, and the original high-speed and low-speed gear is not influenced when the drill mode is recovered.

In view of the above description of the different embodiments, the clutch mechanism of the present invention at least partially overlaps the jaws along the axial direction of the drive shaft, and it should be noted that when the jaws are closed or opened, the jaws can move between a front position (fig. 5) away from the motor along the axial direction of the drive shaft and a rear position (fig. 4) close to the motor, and the overlapping or partial overlapping of the jaws along the axial direction of the drive shaft in the present invention refers to overlapping at any one of the front position and the rear position.

The technical features of the embodiments described above can be arbitrarily combined, and for the sake of brevity, all possible combinations of the technical features in the embodiments described above are not described, but should be considered as the scope of the present specification as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features.

The above-mentioned embodiments only express several embodiments of the present invention, and the description thereof is more specific and detailed, but not construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that, for a person skilled in the art, several variations and modifications can be made without departing from the inventive concept, which falls within the scope of the present invention.
