Definitions
- the present invention relates to a rotary tool, in particular a rotary tool which is designed to drive a rotary working tool such as a rotating disc, screwdriver head, or engraving disc.
- the invention relates in particular to a rotary tool which is designed to drive a variety of interchangeable rotary working tools.
- the present invention further relates to an on/off switch for a power tool.
- the tool comprises a housing in which an electric motor is provided which motor drives a tool output shaft either directly or through intermediate elements.
- the output shaft terminates at its free end remote from the motor in a mount for releasably retaining one of a plurality of rotary working tools.
- Known retaining elements include a collet structure (disclosed in US Patent No. 2,218,168) in which the output shaft is hollow and receives a collet in the forward end. Both the output shaft and the collet extend externally of the housing of the tool. A variety of working tools, each of which is provided with a shank, may be mounted on the output shaft by means of the collet.
- US Patent No. 3,873,863 discloses a shaft lock which is activated by a push button which extends through an opening in the housing.
- the present invention provides a rotary tool of the type which comprises an electric motor, which motor is connected to an output shaft for mounting a variety of interchangeable working tools, and is provided with an on/off switch for controlling the supply of electrical energy to the motor, and a shaft lock for securing the output shaft against rotation, characterised in that the on/off switch is provided with means for preventing activation of the shaft lock while the on/off switch is in the on position.
- the present invention further provides an on/off switch for a rotary tool of the type which comprises an output shaft for mounting a variety of interchangeable working tools and is provided with a shaft lock to secure the shaft against rotation during removal and subsequent fitting of a working tool, characterised in that the on/off switch is provided with means for preventing activation of the shaft lock while the on/off switch is in the on position.
- a rotary tool shown generally at 10, comprises a housing 2, in which is located an electric motor 4.
- a tool output shaft 6 is driven by the motor 4 through intermediate elements, including a fan 8.
- the output shaft 6 is hollow, and receives a collet 12 in the end 20 remote from the motor 4.
- the collet 12 has a cylindrical base and a tapered head and is split such that the head includes several forward end portions 18 which are generally biased slightly radially outwardly.
- the forward end 20 of the output shaft 6 is screw-threaded, and receives an internally screw-threaded collet nut 22 which is also hollow, and which is disposed about the collet head 16. Forward of the screw-threading, the collet nut 22 has a smooth tapered interior surface.
- a variety of working tools may be used with the rotary tool 10 for example, a rotating disc, screwdriver head, engraving disc, etc.
- Each working tool includes a shank.
- the collet nut 22 In order to mount a working tool on the rotary tool 10 the collet nut 22 is loosened by unscrewing. As the nut 22 moves forwardly, the split forward end portions 18 of the collet head move away from each other due to their bias. The shank of the working tool is inserted through the open end of the nut 22 and between the forward ends 18 of the collet head. The nut 22 is tightened, forcing the forward ends 18 of the collet 12 together to hold the working tool shank securely within the output shaft 6. Rotation of the output shaft 6 causes rotation of the collet 12, and thus the working tool, due to the frictional contact between each element.
- the squeezing of the collet forward end portions 18 against the working tool shank by the nut 22 serves to retain the collet 12 and working tool within the output shaft 6, as well as to increase the frictional grip of the collet 12 on the working tool shaft.
- the rotary tool 10 includes a push button 24 which extends through an opening 26 in the housing 10.
- the button 24 includes an integrally formed downwardly extending pin 28.
- a coil spring 30 is disposed about the pin 28 and extends between the internal surface 32 of the button 24 and an inner ledge 34 formed in the housing 2 so as to bias the push button 24 radially outwardly away from the tool output shaft 6.
- the rotary tool includes a push button 24 which extends through an opening in the housing.
- the button 24 further includes a downwardly extending shaft 34 having a cylindrical main section 36 having a lower protrusion 38 of reduced diameter.
- the output shaft 6 includes two openings 40 formed therein.
- the coil spring 30 biases the push button 24 away from the output shaft openings 40 so that the protrusion 38 does not interfere with normal operation.
- the button 24 is pushed at its external surface 42, the shaft 34 is forced radially inwardly against the spring bias until the protrusion 38 contacts the outer surface of the shaft 6.
- the output shaft 6 may be rotated by grasping and rotating the collet nut 22, until the protrusion 38 is aligned with one of the openings 40 in the shaft 6.
- the inward pressure on the button 24 causes the protrusion 38 to enter the opening 40, thereby securing the output shaft 6 against rotation. Further rotation of the nut 22 while the output shaft 6 is held stationary allows the nut 22 to be loosened and removed.
- the on/off function is controlled by an internal on/off push-button switch 44 disposed near the rear of the housing 2.
- a sliding switch 46 is disposed within and extends longitudinally along the housing 2 and includes a radially inward rear flange 48 which is disposed adjacent the internal button 44.
- the sliding switch 44 includes a cover portion 50 which is disposed through a housing slot 52 adjacent and behind the shaft lock push button 24.
- the cover portion 50 is hollow and includes a forward opening 54 which surrounds the rear portion of the push button 24.
- the rear flange 48 With the slide switch 46 in the rear position, the rear flange 48 is out of contact with the internal on/off push button switch 44 and the cover portion 50 is disposed rearwardly of the external shaft lock push button 24. Accordingly, the tool is switched off, and the user has access to the shaft lock push button 24. Thus, the shaft lock can be actuated to change the tool and/or collet.
- the slide switch cover portion 50 When the slide switch cover portion 50 is slided forwardly, the rear flange 48 contacts the internal on/off push button 44 to switch the tool on. Furthermore, the cover portion 50 is slided completely over the shaft lock push button 24 so as to prevent the shaft lock button 24 from being pushed. Accordingly, inadvertent actuation of the shaft lock when the tool is switched on is prevented.
- the fan 8 is disposed between the tool output shaft 6 and motor output shaft 56.
- the fan 8 is secured upon the motor output shaft 56, and the tool output shaft 6 is really a driven shaft disposed within an opening in the fan 8.
- the fan 8 is non-conductive to isolate the motor 4 electrically from the metallic tool output shaft 6 and thus the working tool.
