Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein schlagendes, handgehaltenes Druckluftwerkzeug, wie es für die verschiedensten Einsatzzwecke, beispielsweise für das Bauwesen ganz allgemein in Industrie und Bergbau Verwendung findet. Als Beispiel für solche Werkzeuge seien Abbruchhämmer genannt.The invention relates to a striking, hand-held compressed air tool, as is used for a wide variety of purposes, for example for the construction industry in general in industry and mining. Demolition hammers are an example of such tools.

Aus der DE-OS 23 26 087 wird die Verwendung eines O-Ringes für die Bewegungsdämpfung eines Döppers bekannt, wobei dieser mittelbar über einen Elektromotor angetrieben wird. Ein ähnliches Dämpfelement wird in der DE-OS 25 51 292 beschrieben, wo es zwischen einer feststehenden Hülse eines schlagend-umsetzenden Druckluftbohrhammers und dem Gehäuse desselben welches in seiner auf- und abführenden Bewegung die Drehung der Krone verursacht, angeordnet ist. Der Schlagkolben im Gehäuse ist jedoch ungedämpft.DE-OS 23 26 087 discloses the use of an O-ring for damping the movement of a striker, which is driven indirectly by an electric motor. A similar damping element is described in DE-OS 25 51 292, where it is arranged between a fixed sleeve of an impacting pneumatic hammer and the housing thereof, which causes the crown to rotate in its up and down movement. However, the percussion piston in the housing is not damped.

Aus der DE-AS 10 34 557 wird die Verwendung eines Pufferringes aus Gummi. welcher zwischen dem Zylinder und der Haltekappe des Einsteckwerkzeuges angeordnet ist, zur Abpufferung sowohl des Einsteckwerkzeuges als auch eines Stufenkolbens bekannt. Bei einem luftgepufferten Stufenkolben dient dieser Pufferring aus Gummi lediglich zur Dämpfung des Gegenschlages des Einsteckwerkzeuges.DE-AS 10 34 557 describes the use of a rubber buffer ring. which is arranged between the cylinder and the retaining cap of the insertion tool, for buffering both the insertion tool and a stepped piston. In the case of an air-buffered step piston, this rubber buffer ring only serves to dampen the counter-impact of the insert tool.

Eines der wesentlichen Kriterien für Haltbarkeit, Lebensdauer und auch Handhabbarkeit solcher druckluftbetriebener Meißel oder Hämmer besteht in der konstruktiven Ausgestaltung der Abpufferung des Kolbens im Zylinder. Die Lösung dieses problems ist besonders bei jenen Druckluftwerkzeugen wichtig, welche hohen Leerschlagbeanspruchungen ausgesetzt sind, wie etwa Meißelhämmer für Baumeisterzwecke und Installateurarbeiten.One of the essential criteria for durability, service life and handling of such air-powered chisels or hammers is the structural design of the piston buffering in the cylinder. The solution to this problem is particularly important for those pneumatic tools that are exposed to high empty impact stresses, such as chisel hammers for building and plumbing purposes.

Die Forderung, die an ein modernes Druckluftwerkzeug gestellt sind, bestehen neben der Einhaltung der ergonomischen Richtlinien und gutem Wirkungsgrad vor allem in einer ausreichenden Leerschlagtauglichkeit der Druckluftwerkzeuge. Unter einem Leerschlag ist zu verstehen, daß die Aufschlagfläche des beschleunigten Kolbens mit der Aufschlagfläche eines Zwischenkolbens oder des Schaftes des Arbeitswerkzeuges nicht in Berührung kommt. Dabei muß aber die dem Kolben verliehene Energie, ohne Schaden anzurichten wirksam abgebaut bzw., in Wärme, umgewandelt werden.In addition to compliance with the ergonomic guidelines and good efficiency, the demands placed on a modern compressed air tool are, above all, that the compressed air tools are sufficiently suitable for empty impact. An empty stroke is understood to mean that the impact surface of the accelerated piston does not come into contact with the impact surface of an intermediate piston or the shaft of the working tool. However, the energy imparted to the piston must be effectively reduced without causing damage or converted into heat.

Der Abbau der Leerschlagenergie erfolgt bei Druckluftwerkzeugen üblicherweise durch Luftabpufferungen mit zusätzlichen Sicherheitsvorkehrungen. Bisher wurde die Luftabpufferung des beschleunigten Kolbens dadurch erreicht, daß dieser in Form eines im Zylinder des Werkzeuges hin- und herbeweglichen Kolbenschaftes ausgebildet ist, der an seiner Vorderseite einen Kolbenteil kleineren Durchmessers, den Kolbenkopf, aufweist, also in Form eines Stufenkolbens ausgebildet ist. Zwischen Kolbenkopf und, Innenwand des Zylinders des Werkzeuges bleibt ein ringförmiger Kompressionsraum frei, der an einem Ende durch die Büchse für das Arbeitswerkzeug und am anderen Ende durch die Stufe im Stufenkolben begrenzt ist. Der dort befindliche Luftpolster sorgt, wenn sich der Kolben in Richtung auf das rückwärtige Ende des Schaftes des eigentlichen Schlagwerkzeuges, also z. B. des Meißels, bewegt, infolge der Kompression für eine wirksame Abpufferung des Kolbens.In the case of compressed air tools, the empty impact energy is usually reduced by air buffers with additional safety precautions. So far, the air buffering of the accelerated piston has been achieved in that it is designed in the form of a piston shaft which can reciprocate in the cylinder of the tool and which has a piston part of smaller diameter, the piston head, on its front side, that is to say in the form of a stepped piston. An annular compression space remains free between the piston head and the inner wall of the cylinder of the tool, which is delimited at one end by the bush for the working tool and at the other end by the step in the step piston. The air cushion located there ensures when the piston moves towards the rear end of the shaft of the actual percussion tool, that is, for. B. the chisel, moves, due to the compression for an effective buffering of the piston.

Zusätzlich zu dieser Luftabpufferung sind weitere Sicherheitsvorkehrungen getroffen, indem z. B. vor dem Bund des Schaftes des Schlagwerkzeuges elastische Teile wie z. B. eine Pufferfeder, Kunststoffteile, Gummischläuche od. dgl. angeordnet werden, so daß insbesondere beim Leerschlag ein metallisches Aufschlagen des Kolbens innerhalb des Zylinders vermieden bzw. abgeschwächt wird.In addition to this air buffering, further safety precautions have been taken, e.g. B. in front of the collar of the shaft of the striking tool elastic parts such. B. a buffer spring, plastic parts, rubber hoses or the like. Arranged so that a metallic impact of the piston within the cylinder is avoided or weakened, especially when empty.

Der Nachteil dieses bisher angewandten Systems besteht insbesondere darin, daß schon bei relativ geringem Verschleiß des Kolbenschaftes die Abpufferung durch den oben genannten Luftpuffer rasch abnimmt. Dadurch wird die Pufferfeder bei längerer Dauer dieses Zustandes überlastet. Bei Verschleiß der Bohrung des Zylinders, in welcher sich der Kolbenschaft bewegt, tritt der gleiche Effekt wie bei Verschleiß des Schaftes ein und wenn beide Teile verschleißen, vervielfacht sich der geschilderte Mangel. Dazu kommt, daß aus fertigungstechnischen Gründen am Ende der Kolbenkopfbohrung ein Einstich gemacht werden muß ; der dadurch vorhandene Totraum hat auf den Luftpuffer ebenfalls einen negativen Einfluß. Wenn ein Verschleiß des Kolbenschaftes eintritt, ist nur der Kolben auszuwechseln, hingegen ist bei Verschleiß der Kolbenschaftbohrung der ganze Zylinder samt der Büchse für das Schlagwerkzeug selbst, also z. B. für den Meißel, auszuwechseln. Bei Bruch der Pufferfeder oder wie in der Praxis gehandhabt, wenn vom Bedienungsmann beim Wechseln des Arbeitswerkzeuges, also z. B. des Meißels, auf den Einbau der Pufferfeder verzichtet wird, schlägt schon nach geringfügigem Verschleiß der eben beschriebenen Teile, Zylinder und/oder Kolbenschaft der Kolben unweigerlich in die Stirnfläche der Brückenbohrung, was letztlich zu einem Querbruch des Zylinders in diesem Bereich führen kann. Schon vor einer derart schweren Beschädigung kann es durch Körperschallübertragung auch zu Sekundärbrüchen im Steuerkörper oder in den Auspuffschellen des Druckluftwerkzeuges kommen.The disadvantage of this previously used system is, in particular, that even with relatively little wear on the piston skirt, the buffering by the air buffer mentioned above decreases rapidly. As a result, the buffer spring is overloaded for a longer period of this state. If the bore of the cylinder in which the piston shaft moves is worn, the same effect occurs as if the shaft is worn, and if both parts wear out, the described defect multiplies. In addition, for technical reasons, a recess must be made at the end of the piston head bore; the resulting dead space also has a negative impact on the air buffer. If the piston skirt becomes worn, only the piston has to be replaced. B. for the chisel. In the event of breakage of the buffer spring or as in practice, when the operator changes the work tool, e.g. B. the chisel, the installation of the buffer spring is dispensed, inevitably beats after slight wear of the parts just described, cylinder and / or piston skirt of the piston in the end face of the bridge bore, which can ultimately lead to a transverse fracture of the cylinder in this area. Even before such severe damage, structure-borne noise transmission can also lead to secondary breaks in the control body or in the exhaust clamps of the compressed air tool.

Ziel der Erfindung ist ein schlagendes, handgehaltenes Druckluftwerkzeug zu schaffen, das die oben angeführten Nachteile nicht aufweist. Die handgehaltenen Druckluftwerkzeuge unterscheiden sich von den übrigen dadurch, daß sie relativ klein ausgestaltet werden, sodaß das Volumen, welches zur Luftabpufferung dient, ebenfalls klein zu halten ist, wobei bereits bei geringen Undichtigkeiten die Luftabpufferung nicht mehr wirksam sein kann.The aim of the invention is to create a striking, hand-held pneumatic tool which does not have the disadvantages mentioned above. The hand-held compressed air tools differ from the others in that they are designed to be relatively small, so that the volume which is used for air buffering is also to be kept small, even with small ones Leaks the air buffering can no longer be effective.

Die Erfindung geht von den eben beschriebenen, bekannten Druckluftwerkzeugen aus und betrifft ein schlagendes, handgehaltenes Druckluftwerkzeug mit einem Werkzeugzylinder innerhalb dessen Bohrung ein beweglicher, druckluftbetriebener, einen Kolbenkopf und einen Kolbenschaft aufweisenden Stufenkolben angeordnet ist, welcher zur Betätigung des Arbeitswerkzeuges und zur Luftabpufferung dient sowie einem Pufferring und besteht im wesentlichen darin, daß ein Pufferring in der Bohrung des Werkzeugzylinders angeordnet ist, welcher als Büchse für den Kolbenschaft dient und durch einen verformbares Material, z. B. Stahl, aufweisenden Halteteil in der Bohrung gehalten ist, der über den Pufferring durch den Stufenkolben deformierbar ist.The invention is based on the known compressed air tools just described and relates to a striking, hand-held compressed air tool with a tool cylinder, within the bore of which a movable, compressed air-operated, piston piston and piston rod is arranged, which serves to actuate the working tool and to buffer the air, and one Buffer ring and consists essentially in that a buffer ring is arranged in the bore of the tool cylinder, which serves as a sleeve for the piston skirt and by a deformable material, for. B. steel, holding member is held in the bore, which is deformable via the buffer ring by the stepped piston.

Durch den Pufferring wird die kinetische Energie des Stufenkolbens bei einem Leerschlag aufgenommen, welche in Verformungsarbeit und Wärme im Halteteil ungewandelt wird. Der Halteteil stellt ein austauschbares Konstruktionselement dar, durch welches eine Zerstörung z. B. des Werkzeugzylinders verhindert wird. Durch die Ausbildung des Pufferringes als Büchse für den Kolbenschaft wird gleichzeitig eine weitere Führung für den Kolben erreicht.The kinetic energy of the stepped piston is absorbed by the buffer ring in the event of an empty stroke, which is converted into deformation work and heat in the holding part. The holding part is an interchangeable construction element, through which destruction z. B. the tool cylinder is prevented. By designing the buffer ring as a sleeve for the piston skirt, further guidance for the piston is achieved at the same time.

Eine besonders einfache Konstruktion ist dann verwirklicht, wenn ein Kompressionsraum zur Luftabpufferung durch Stufenkolben, Werkzeugzylinder und Pufferring gebildet ist, wobei gleichzeitig, falls im Gebrauch die Luftabpufferung durch Abnützung der Bohrung oder des Kolbens herabgemindert ist, durch einfachen Austausch des Pufferringes eine bessere Abbremsung des Kolbens wieder erreichbar ist.A particularly simple construction is realized when a compression space for air buffering is formed by the stepped piston, tool cylinder and buffer ring, and at the same time, if the air buffering is reduced in use by wear of the bore or the piston, a better braking of the piston by simply replacing the buffer ring is available again.

Ist der Halteteil für den Pufferring in einer Ausnehmung der Bohrung vorgesehen, so kann dieser an jeder geeigenten Stelle in der Bohrung angeordnet werden, wobei die Übertragung der Kräfte vom Halteteil zum Zylinder durch entsprechende Ausgestaltung der Ausnehmungen besonders gut gelöst werden kann.If the holding part for the buffer ring is provided in a recess in the bore, it can be arranged at any suitable point in the bore, the transmission of the forces from the holding part to the cylinder being able to be solved particularly well by appropriately designing the recesses.

Ist die Ausnehmung eine Ringnut, in welcher ein vorzugsweise zylindrischer Haltering angeordnet ist, kann eine gleichmäßige Übertragung der Kräfte vom Stufenkolben auf den Werkzeugzylinder erreicht werden, selbst wenn der Stufenkolben sich mit einem größeren Spiel innerhalb des Werkzeugzylinders bewegt.If the recess is an annular groove, in which a preferably cylindrical retaining ring is arranged, a uniform transmission of the forces from the stepped piston to the tool cylinder can be achieved, even if the stepped piston moves within the tool cylinder with greater play.

Eine konstruktiv besonders platzsparende und damit gewichtsarme Lösung ergibt sich dann, wenn der Haltering in seiner gesamten Höhe den Pufferring umschließt.A structurally particularly space-saving and therefore low-weight solution is obtained if the retaining ring encloses the buffer ring in its entire height.

Ragt der Haltering an der dem Arbeitswerkzeug zugekehrten Seite über den von ihm umschlossenen Pufferring heraus, so kann eine besonders schonende Abpufferung des Stufenkolbens erreicht werden, wobei gleichzeitig die Abpufferung längere Strecken zum Abbau der Kräfte aufweist.If the retaining ring on the side facing the working tool protrudes beyond the buffer ring enclosed by it, particularly gentle buffering of the stepped piston can be achieved, the buffering at the same time having longer distances to reduce the forces.

Eine besonders einfache Konstruktion ergibt sich dann, wenn der Haltering gemeinsam mit dem Pufferring aus einem Stück besteht, wobei der Pufferring Schlitze aufweisen kann, sodaß eine besonders einfache Montage, z. B. auch von ungeübten Kräften, an der Baustelle durchgeführt werden kann.A particularly simple construction results when the retaining ring together with the buffer ring consists of one piece, the buffer ring may have slots, so that a particularly simple assembly, for. B. also by inexperienced forces, can be carried out at the construction site.

Ist der Halteteil mehrteilig ausgebildet und besteht er aus einzelnen Federn, die in entsprechenden Nuten im Werkzeugzylinder angeordnet sind, so kann eine besonders schonende Abpufferung des Kolbens erreicht werden, wobei durch eine symmetrische Anordnung von zumindest drei Halteteilen ein Verkanten des Pufferringes mit Sicherheit vermieden werden kann.If the holding part is made of several parts and consists of individual springs that are arranged in corresponding grooves in the tool cylinder, the piston can be particularly gently buffered, whereby tilting of the buffer ring can be avoided with certainty by a symmetrical arrangement of at least three holding parts .

Eine fertigungstechnisch besonders einfache und trotzdem hochwirksame Konstruktion ergibt sich dann, wenn die Bohrung des Zylinders einen konstanten Durchmesser aufweist und darin der Pufferring und die Büchse zur Führung des Einsteckendes des Arbeitswerkzeuges angeordnet sind.A construction that is particularly simple in terms of production technology, but nevertheless highly effective, results when the bore of the cylinder has a constant diameter and the buffer ring and the bushing for guiding the insertion end of the working tool are arranged therein.

Der wesentliche Vorteil des erfindungsgemäßen Druckluftwerkzeuges besteht darin, daß immer dann, wenn aus irgendwelchen Gründen der Einbau der Pufferfeder am Werkzeug nicht erfolgt ist und/oder es bereits zu einem Verschleiß des Kolbenschaftes und/oder der Kolbenschaftbohrung gekommen ist und daher ein ungenügender Luftpuffer vorliegt, der « weiche Fang- und Haltering beim schlecht abgepufferten Aufschlagen des Kolbens dessen Schlagenergie in Verformungsarbeit umwandelt. Dabei wandert der Pufferring in Richtung Aufschlagfläche des Arbeitswerkzeuges und es vergrößert sich hierdurch einerseits der Kompressions- oder Pufferraum, also der Luftpolster, und andererseits kommt es infolge der Verlagerung der Aufschlaglagen zwischen Kolben und Arbeitswerkzeug (Meißel, Hammer) zu Rhythmusstörungen, die die Notwendigkeit eines Austausches der Kombination von Pufferring und Halteteil und allenfalls des Kolbens deutlich erkennbar machen. Dadurch kann ohne Schwierigkeiten rechtzeitig für den nötigen Austausch von dem Verschleiß unterlegenen Teilen gesorgt werden und die oben beschriebenen Beschädigungen oder gar die Zerstörungen des teuren Zylinders sind praktisch ausgeschlossen.The essential advantage of the compressed air tool according to the invention is that whenever the buffer spring has not been installed on the tool for any reason and / or the piston skirt and / or the piston skirt bore have already been worn and there is therefore an insufficient air buffer, the «soft catch and retaining ring when the piston is badly buffered converts its impact energy into deformation work. The buffer ring moves in the direction of the impact surface of the working tool and, on the one hand, this increases the compression or buffer space, i.e. the air cushion, and on the other hand, due to the shifting of the impact positions between the piston and the working tool (chisel, hammer), rhythm disturbances occur, which make the need for a Make the exchange of the combination of buffer ring and holding part and, if necessary, the piston clearly recognizable. As a result, the necessary replacement of parts inferior to wear can be provided in good time without difficulty and the damage described above or even the destruction of the expensive cylinder are practically impossible.

Infolge der vereinfachten Konstruktion ist das Auswechseln der Verschleißteile bei den erfindungsgemäßen Druckluftwerkzeugen ebenfalls relativ einfach, die neuen Werkzeuge zeichnen sich besonders durch Kunden- und Servicefreundlichkeit aus.As a result of the simplified construction, the replacement of the wearing parts in the pneumatic tools according to the invention is also relatively simple, and the new tools are particularly customer-friendly and service-friendly.

An Hand der Zeichnung wird die Erfindung näher erläutert.The invention is explained in more detail with reference to the drawing.

Es zeigen :

  • Figur 1 einen schematischen Längsschnitt durch ein bisher gebräuchliches Druckluftwerkzeug und
  • Figur 2 einen Längsschnitt durch ein erfindungsgemäßes Druckluftwerkzeug.
Show it :
  • 1 shows a schematic longitudinal section through a previously used pneumatic tool and
  • Figure 2 shows a longitudinal section through an air tool according to the invention.

Das in Fig. 1 dargestellte Druckluftwerkzeug ist gebildet durch den Zylinder 2, über dessen Endteil die Haltekappe 5 geschraubt ist. Innerhalb des Zylinders 2 bewegt sich der druckluftbetriebene Stufenkolben 1 mit dem Kolbenschaft 1a und einem verringertem Durchmesser aufweisenden Kolbenkopf 1 b. Der Kolbenkopf 1 b liegt mit seiner Endfläche an der Endfläche des mittels der Pufferfeder 6 gegen ihn gedrückten Schaftes des Arbeitswerkzeuges 8, z. B. eines Meißels, an. Das Einsteckende bzw. der Schaft des Werkzeuges 8 ist in der Werkzeugbüchse 7 geführt. Über den Rückhubkanal 9 wird die Druckluft zum Rückhub des Kolbens nach dem Arbeitstakt zugeführt. Zwischen Kolbenkopf 1b und Wand der Bohrung des Zylinders 2 ist der ringförmige Kompressionsraum X zur Abpufferung des Kolbens ausgebildet. Aus der Figur ist deutlich zu erkennen, daß die Zylinderbohrung an verschiedenen Stellen unterschiedliche Durchmesser aufweist, und daß am Ende der Kolbenkopfbohrung der oben beschriebene Einstich, der einen Totraum darstellt, vorhanden ist.The pneumatic tool shown in FIG. 1 is formed by the cylinder 2, over the end part of which the retaining cap 5 is screwed. Within the Cylinder 2 moves the compressed air-operated step piston 1 with the piston shaft 1a and a piston head 1b having a reduced diameter. The piston head 1 b lies with its end face on the end face of the shank of the working tool 8 pressed against it by means of the buffer spring 6, for. B. a chisel. The insertion end or the shank of the tool 8 is guided in the tool sleeve 7. Via the return stroke channel 9, the compressed air for return stroke of the piston is supplied after the work cycle. The annular compression space X for buffering the piston is formed between the piston head 1b and the wall of the bore of the cylinder 2. From the figure it can be clearly seen that the cylinder bore has different diameters at different points and that the recess described above, which represents a dead space, is present at the end of the piston head bore.

Das erfindungsgemäße Druckluftwerkzeug unterscheidet sich von den bisher üblichen Werkzeugen, wie Fig. 2 zeigt, dadurch, daß der Kolbenkopf 1b des Stufenkolbens 1 verlängert ausgebildet und in einem Pufferring 4, der von einem Halteteil oder Haltering aus verformbarem Material, meist einem Metall, vorzugsweise aus weichem Stahl, umschlossen ist, geführt ist. Der Haltering kann entweder relativ geringe Höhe 3a aufweisen und in einer einfach-konischen Ringnut 2a im Zylinder oder als Ring mit relativ größerer Höhe 3b in einem doppelt-konischen Einstich 2b in der Zylinderbohrung mit konstantem Durchmesser eingepreßt sein. Es wird dabei ein von der Stirnfläche des Pufferringes 4, der Innenwand des Zylinders 2 und der Stufe vom Kolbenschaft zum Kolbenkopf hin begrenzter Kompressionsraum X ausgebildet, der nicht mehr an das Ende des Schaftes des Arbeitswerkzeuges 8 und den zur Führung des Arbeitswerkzeuges dienenden Brückenteil 7 angrenzt. Der im Kompressionsraum X befindliche Luftpolster bewirkt eine wirksame Abpufferung des Kolbens.The compressed air tool according to the invention differs from the previously usual tools, as shown in FIG. 2, in that the piston head 1b of the stepped piston 1 is elongated and in a buffer ring 4, which consists of a holding part or holding ring made of deformable material, usually a metal, preferably soft steel, is enclosed, is guided. The retaining ring can either have a relatively low height 3a and can be pressed into a single-conical ring groove 2a in the cylinder or as a ring with a relatively greater height 3b in a double-conical recess 2b in the cylinder bore with a constant diameter. A compression space X is defined by the end face of the buffer ring 4, the inner wall of the cylinder 2 and the step from the piston skirt to the piston head, which no longer adjoins the end of the shaft of the working tool 8 and the bridge part 7 used to guide the working tool . The air cushion in the compression chamber X effectively buffers the piston.

Es besteht auch die Möglichkeit, daß der Pufferring 4 mit dem Haltering 3b aus einem Stück besteht, wobei der Halteringteil axiale Schlitze aufweist, wodurch der Haltering zusammenfedern kann, sodaß eine leichte und schnelle Montage dieser Einheit möglich ist.There is also the possibility that the buffer ring 4 with the retaining ring 3b is made in one piece, the retaining ring part having axial slots, as a result of which the retaining ring can spring together, so that this unit can be assembled easily and quickly.

Als Halteteile können auch Federn vorgesehen werden, die im Schnitt dem Haltering 3b oder 3a entsprechen und in axial ausgerichteten Nuten angeordnet sind, wobei zumindest 3 Nuten um den Umfang gleichmäßig verteilt sein müssen.Springs can also be provided as holding parts, which correspond in section to the holding ring 3b or 3a and are arranged in axially aligned grooves, at least 3 grooves having to be evenly distributed around the circumference.

Wenn infolge Verschleißes von Kolbenschaft 1a und/oder Bohrung die Abpufferung nicht mehr voll wirksam ist und der Kolben mit steigendem Verschleiß immer weiter gegen das Arbeitswerkzeug 8 beschleunigt wird, wird der Pufferring 4 in Richtung Arbeitswerkzeug verschoben und der Halte- oder Fangring 3 nimmt die vom Kolben 1 auf den Pufferring ausgeübte Energie unter mehr oder minder großer Verformung auf. Bei der Verschiebung des Pufferringes in Richtung Einsteckende des Arbeitswerkzeuges kommt es zu den oben erwähnten Rhythmusstörungen, welche den vorher erfolgten Verschleiß deutlich anzeigen, so daß rechtzeitig der Austausch der dem Verschleiß unterlegenen Teile erfolgen kann.If, due to wear of the piston skirt 1a and / or bore, the buffering is no longer fully effective and the piston is accelerated with increasing wear against the work tool 8, the buffer ring 4 is displaced in the direction of the work tool and the retaining or catch ring 3 takes it from Piston 1 exerted energy on the buffer ring with more or less large deformation. When the buffer ring is moved in the direction of the insertion end of the working tool, the above-mentioned rhythm disturbances occur, which clearly indicate the wear that occurred before, so that the parts inferior to the wear can be replaced in good time.
