Definitions

  • the invention relates to a system with a tool holder according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a system with a grinding machine tool holder for a hand-held angle grinding machine and a grinding wheel is known from EP 0 904 896 A2.
  • the angle grinder has a drive shaft that has a thread on the tool side.
  • the grinding machine tool holder has a driver and a clamping nut.
  • the driver is pushed onto a collar of the drive shaft with a mounting opening and clamped non-positively against a bearing surface of the drive shaft via the clamping nut.
  • the driver has a collar which extends in the axial direction on the tool side and which is radially connected to two has opposite sides on its outer circumference recesses which extend in the axial direction to a bottom of the collar. Starting from the recesses, a groove extends in each case against the drive direction of the drive shaft on the outer circumference of the collar. The grooves are closed against the drive direction of the drive shaft and taper axially from the recesses against the drive direction of the drive shaft.
  • the grinding wheel has a hub with a mounting opening in which two opposite, radially inward-pointing tongues are arranged.
  • the tongues can be inserted into the recesses in the axial direction and then into the grooves in the circumferential direction, counter to the drive direction.
  • the grinding wheel is positively locked in the axial direction via the tongues in the grooves and non-positively fixed by the tapering contour of the grooves.
  • the force closure increases as a result of reaction forces acting on the grinding wheel, which act counter to the drive direction.
  • a stopper is arranged in the region of a recess on the circumference of the collar and is movably mounted in an opening in the axial direction. In a working position with the grinding wheel facing downwards, the stopper is deflected axially by gravity in the direction of the grinding wheel, closes the groove in the direction of the recess and blocks a movement of the tongue located in the groove in the drive direction of the drive shaft.
  • the invention is based on a system with a tool holder, which has a driving device, via which an insert tool can be operatively connected to a drive shaft, and an insert tool, which can be effectively connected to the driving device via at least one latching element movably mounted against a spring element, which engages in an operating position of the insert tool and the insert tool is positively fixed.
  • the tool holder and the insert tool have at least two coordinated, corresponding shaped elements for simplifying an assembly of the insert tool.
  • An advantageous and simple assembly of the insert tool can be achieved, in particular in that the shaped elements form a guide so that tensioning hooks of the driving device can automatically engage in corresponding recesses in the hub.
  • the corresponding shaped elements advantageously form a coding means with regard to at least one parameter in order to avoid the installation of an impermissible tool of the same type. It can be structurally simple to provide protection for a hand-held power tool and for the tool against damage and / or destruction due to any incorrect loading, as can be achieved in particular by a too high speed. Coding is conceivable on the basis of various parameters which the person skilled in the art considers useful, such as, for example, dimensioning of the application tool, a maximum permissible speed, application of the application tool, a material to be processed, etc. Electronic coding means are also conceivable with which, for example, a rotational speed of a motor or a drive unit can be limited depending on the insert tool or a power supply can be interrupted when an inadmissible insert tool is used.
  • the corresponding shaped elements are advantageously matched to one another with regard to the dimensioning of the insert tool, as a result of which, in particular, a correct assignment of a diameter of the insert tool to a rotational speed of the handheld power tool can be ensured and damage can be avoided.
  • a coding criterion such as, in particular, a thickness of the insert tool.
  • the molded element arranged on the tool holder is advantageously formed by a projection arranged on a collar of the tool holder and extending in the radial direction, and the molded element arranged on the insert tool is formed by a recess.
  • Large centering surfaces are available for simple and safe installation of the insert tool in the tool holder.
  • a radially inwardly extending projection is formed on the hub or on the insert tool and a recess is formed on the tool holder.
  • the projection be at a distance from an abutment surface in the axial direction.
  • the insertion tool can be rotated under the projection to reach a locking position become.
  • the head start represents an additional safeguard for the application tool and makes an additional contribution to safety for the operator.
  • At least three projections evenly distributed over the circumference are arranged on the tool holder.
  • the three projections span a clearly defined level and, with their end faces, form an advantageous contact surface for the insert tool.
  • the insert tool can simply be placed on the contact surface and rotated until the shaped elements are in a corresponding position. Finding and threading the retaining hooks into the corresponding recesses in the hub is thereby made significantly easier and jamming and jamming of the
  • the projection can be integrally formed on a separate component or advantageously be made in one piece with the tool holder, in the latter case additional components, assembly effort and costs being saved.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematically illustrated angle grinder from above
  • FIG. 2 shows an exploded view of a system with a tool holder
  • FIG. 3 shows an enlarged representation of a driving flange from FIG. 2.
  • FIG. 1 shows an angle grinder 32 from above with an electric motor, not shown, which is mounted in a housing 34.
  • the angle grinder 32 can be guided via a first handle 36, which extends in the longitudinal direction and is integrated in the housing 34 on a side facing away from an insert tool 14, and via a second handle 40, which is attached to a gear housing 38 in the region of the insert tool 14 and extends transversely to the longitudinal direction.

  • a collar 26 is formed on the driving flange 10 on a side facing the insert tool 14, by means of which the insert tool 14 with its centering bore 46 is radially centered in the assembled state.
  • Arranged on the collar 26 are three shaped elements 22 which are formed by projections which extend radially outward.
  • the molded elements 22, which are made in one piece with the collar 26, are distributed uniformly over an outer circumference of the collar 26 and are at a distance 28 from the contact surface 30 in the axial direction 54, 64. With its end facing the insert tool 14, the collar 26 projects beyond the shaped elements 22 in the axial direction 54.

  • the sheet metal plate 48 is then, loaded by the spring element 58, supported on the contact surface 30 of the driving flange 10 via edges of the hook-shaped extensions which point axially in the direction facing away from the insert tool 14.
