Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hand tool, such as a combination hammer, for production an at least partially rotating movement of a tool.
  • Combination hammers of this type produce both a rotating and a single drive striking movement, whereby between the individual operating modes, such as drilling, Position drill bits, chisels and chisels with a mode selector switch connected to the gearbox, can be changed manually.
  • An unintentional Switching from the chisel operating mode in which a mostly at Appropriate use of non-rotatable tool is used in the operating mode Drilling or drilling bits can endanger the user.
  • the operating modes are generally selected internally by switching sleeves, which is usually linearly displaceable parallel to the direction of rotation of a drive shaft are arranged in the housing of the combined hand tool and on their Positioning a positive engagement of the internal switching means, mostly between Manufacture gear and drive shaft. Most are for the operating modes drilling and Chisels are provided with two separate switches, since these usually also have two internal switches separate switching sleeves can be switched. The security for more than two Operating modes possibly limited permissible sequence of the operating modes among themselves must have complex mutual locking of the individual switch positions be guaranteed.
  • Rotary switch to select one of several discrete switch positions, each determined over a rotation angle range, give a permissible for each direction of rotation Switching sequence. Certain ranges of rotation angles are above the rotatable Rotary switch directly or by means of transformations into other types of movement, e.g. via a switching part or a guide curve assigned to linear, internal discrete switching positions.
  • the switching of the operating modes is carried out via a Rotary switch realized, the eccentrically mounted pin in a switching groove of a linear sliding switching sleeve engages.
  • the switching process can also be synchronized by a spring-elastic element between two moving parts of the rotary switch itself can be effected, with a part by hand regardless of the internal synchronization state is switched against the spring force and the other part via the spring force the internal Switching takes place when synchronization has taken place.
  • the object of the invention is to implement a hand tool device with a single rotary switch for the selection of at least three operating modes of the Hand tool, with which regardless of the current position of the inner Switching means of the operating mode changed as well as an accidental aspect Switching over via the operating mode adjacent in the switching sequence is reliably prevented can be.
  • the hand tool essentially has a rotary switch for selecting at least three different operating modes, with the switching process of the user by turning a self-locking actuating part of the rotary switch into one adjacent angle of rotation range into a connected to the actuating part, eccentrically arranged switching pin a torque on a cantilever, advantageous as Leaf spring designed, spring is transmitted, which is rotationally fixed with one, directly or indirectly at least one inner switching means-displacing, coaxially rotatable switching part is connected and as a spring-elastic coupling between the actuating part as a torque initiator Part and the switching part serves as a torque-dissipating part, creating a temporary Torque up to the positive engagement of synchronized inner switching means in the Spring is stored resiliently.
  • the self-locking of the actuating part with respect to the housing is advantageous via a sufficient static friction or carried out via a holding element, for example a spring-loaded Ball which engages in a recess.
  • the permissible spring travel of the cantilevered spring is advantageous, advantageously with the switching part connected, limit stop of the cantilever arm, causing the switch becomes self-locking with regard to an impermissible overspeed.
  • an overstressing of the spring is prevented and by the over the spring and Contact with the switching pin mediated over-tightening the permissible, advantageously the directly adjacent in the switching direction, switching position safely prevented.
  • the fastening of the spring is advantageously essentially opposite the switching pin arranged, which allows a large suspension travel.
  • On Switch pin can be one-sided or two-sided with respect to a cantilever arm of the spring Train contact on this.
  • a single cantilever is and is advantageously arranged peripherally in the plane of symmetry claimed by one or two switching pins, two cantilever arms are advantageous arranged along symmetrical tendons and are transversely inward and / or outside of one or two respectively assigned or a common Switch pin claimed.
  • the stop possible for both directions of rotation is advantageous for two cantilever arms in common executed within the plane of symmetry or separately symmetrical to this. at a single cantilever arm is advantageously carried out separately symmetrically.
  • the switching part advantageously has an eccentrically mounted pin, which at least in a, preferably linearly movable, switching means, for example a movable switching sleeve, intervenes.
  • switching means can advantageously be used via switching transmission means, For example.
  • Switch plates at least partially coupled to one another, which is advantageous by two directions of movement of the switching transmission means oriented transversely to one another at least partially a decoupling of both components of the rotary movement of the rotary switch given is.
  • a first switching means can advantageously be the rotary drive, a second switching means the percussion drive and a third switching means the locking of the Switch the combined hand tool on or off, with at least three operating modes over one, advantageous stroke-limited not over a full turn Rotatable, rotary switch evenly in the angular range up to 360 ° according to the switching sequence are distributed.
  • the rotary switch ensures that more than two operating modes only in one certain sequence can be switched.
  • This rotary switch sets the one Operating mode-setting, angle of rotation range via an eccentric part transforms into a linear movement of a first, axially movable switching means, which synchronizes via a switching transmission means with a second linearly movable, in another area switching, switching means is connected. This is for the user more than two operating modes of the combined hand tool simply selectable via a rotary switch.
  • a combined hand tool device not shown, has a rotary switch 1 for the selection of four different operating modes 2, with respect to one for Change from an actual operating mode into a directly adjacent target operating mode necessary, manually applied oriented twist ⁇ of a self-locking,
  • Operating part composed of two interlocking components 3 of the rotary switch 1 is connected to the actuating part 3, eccentrically arranged switching pin 4 an associated, designed as a leaf spring, projecting spring 5 contacted deforming on one side, which rotatably with a coaxially rotatable switching part 6th connected is.
  • a holding element 7 engages in shape for self-locking of the actuating part 3 a leaf spring into a recess of the driver of the actuating part 3.
  • a cantilever 9 of the cantilever spring 5 is by a with the Switching part 6 connected stop 10 of the maximally deformed cantilever 9 'limited.
  • a second switching pin 4a for a change of the operating mode 2 via one oriented opposite to the rotation ⁇ Rotation ⁇ 'of the rotary switch 1 is a second switching pin 4a and an associated second Cantilever arm 9a is present as an independently projecting part of the common spring 5, which in a middle section, essentially the switching pins 4,4a arranged oppositely, is rotatably attached to the switching part 6.
  • the switching part 6 has an eccentrically mounted, axial oriented pin 11, which in a linearly movable switching means 12 in the form of a Switching sleeve engages.
  • switching means 12, 14, 15 in the form of two switching sleeves and a locking bolt arranged, which via switching transmission means 16, 17 in the form of switching plates are partially coupled to each other, with two mutually oriented directions of movement the switching transmission means 16, 17 a decoupling of both components X, Y of the rotary movement of the rotary switch 1 is given, which with the axially oriented Pin 11 engages in the linearly movable switching means 12 in the form of a switching sleeve.
