Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electric hand tool device, in particular percussion drill or hammer drill, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • an electric hand tool device is known from EP-A-0437060 known..
  • Such a hand drill with a device for switching the operating modes drilling and impact drilling is for example from the EP 0 755 756 B1 previously known, wherein here the drill spindle is supported in the Drehbohr memoriswolf against a thrust bearing, which is designed as a rolling bearing and the adjusting member acts via this roller bearing on the drill spindle.
  • a corresponding drill is, for example, from EP 0 399 714 B1 previously known, which discloses a power drill having a mode change mechanism for changing the operating state of the drill between a no-hammer mode and a percussion drilling mode, the mode change mechanism including a first rigid and a second elastic members.
  • the adjusting device comprises a spindle arranged on the switching ring having on both end faces curve arrangements, wherein one of the cam arrangements is engageable by turning the switching ring in a housing-fixed corresponding cam arrangement and the second cam arrangement is engageable with a corresponding cam arrangement of an axially movable on the spindle pressure piece for adjusting the impact device in an impact position.
  • the spindle can perform an axial movement, which is blocked by the abutment of the cam assemblies in the unengaged state by the intermeshing of the switching ring in the region of its curve arrangement with a housing-fixed cam arrangement.
  • a further axial movement is made possible by the fact that the pressure piece dips with its curve arrangement in a second curve arrangement of the switching ring, thus enabling a double axial stroke of the spindle.
  • the pressure piece cooperates with a spring which loads the pressure piece away from the switching ring. That is, in the normal basic position, the cams of pressure piece and switching ring are disengaged. If, for example, a corresponding percussion drill is attached to a workpiece to be machined with a drill, then the spindle is loaded axially against the spring force and moves in the axial direction so far that, on the one hand, the control cams of the impact device engage with one another and, on the other hand, the cam arrangements dive between switching ring and pressure piece in each other, so that with appropriately switched electric hand tool a blow or Schlagbohr memori is possible because the spindle can be moved axially.
  • the spindle is no longer axially loaded, for example, by the electric hand tool device is removed from the workpiece, so there is no further beating movement of the spindle. In this way, a considerably easier holding a suitably equipped electric hand tool device can be made possible.
  • the pressure piece is supported with its opposite side of the curve arrangement against a thrust bearing of the spindle.
  • the thrust bearing serves to guide the spindle in the rotational position.
  • the pressure piece is guided in a slide guide, so that no rotation of the pressure piece is possible, but the pressure piece can only perform a purely translational movement with respect to the housing.
  • a slide switch is provided as a switch for the adjusting device, which is provided on the outside of a housing of the electric hand tool device, which may be in particular a radial sliding movement, by which a twisting of the switching ring.
  • FIG. 1 shows a part of an electric hand tool device comprising a spindle 10 with a receptacle 12 for a tool holder, wherein the spindle via a gear 14 and an electric motor connected thereto (not shown) is drivable.
  • the spindle is rotatably mounted in a machine housing 16 by means of the bearings 18, 20 and 22nd
  • the electric hand tool device now comprises a striking mechanism, which is provided in its entirety by the reference numeral 24.
  • the hammer mechanism 24 has essentially two elements, namely the component 26 with a first control cam 28 and a racket 30 with a second control curve 32.
  • the two control cams 28 and 32 of the components 26 and 30 are directed towards each other.
  • the component 26 is in this case pressed onto the spindle 10 and is in the axial direction against a stop 34.
  • the component 26 rotates with the spindle and is axially fixed on this.
  • the racket is axially movable relative to the spindle 10, but can not rotate relative to the housing 16.
  • the racket 30 is guided in a racket housing 36, which is inserted into the machine housing 16 and fixed here.
  • a spring 40 is also guided, which is supported with its one side against the racket 30 and with its other side against the racket housing 36 and biases it.
  • FIG. 1 shows an embodiment in which the control cams 28 and 32 are not engaged with each other. In this position, only a rotational movement of a tool clamped in a tool holder takes place without any axial impact movement of the spindle 10 being performed.
  • the cams are designed so that at least one of the control cams has a control cam, which protrudes in the direction of the other control cam in the axial direction over the rest of the control cam.
  • ramps are provided, which allow sliding of the two cams on each other and thus allow a detent provided on one or both of the control cams control cam. Between the two control cam so-called valleys are arranged in each case.
  • the racket 30 strikes with a predetermined energy to the component 26 and moves it in the axial direction in the direction of the end 12 of the spindle 10. Since the component 26 is fixed to the spindle 10 and in particular abuts against the stop 34 is moved together with the component 26, the spindle 10 in the axial direction. In this way, a stroke of the spindle and a percussion drilling operation can be provided, which supports a drilling operation.
  • an adjusting device which is provided in its entirety by the reference numeral 42, provided on the opposite end of the tool holder spindle end.
  • the adjusting device 42 in this case comprises an adjusting member, not shown, in particular a sliding switch in the radial direction, is initiated and performed by an operator of the switching operation.
  • a switching ring 44 which has on its two end faces curve arrangements 46 and 48, relative to the housing moved radially, whereby the cam assembly 46 is engageable with a cam assembly on a housing-fixed member 50, whose cam assembly is denoted by 52.
  • FIG. 1 Here are the cam assemblies 46 and 50 shown out of engagement.
  • FIG. 2 shows now the inter-engaged cam assemblies 46 and 50 of the switching ring and the housing-fixed component 50.
  • the adjusting device 42 includes a pressure piece 54, which abuts via a spring 56 against the thrust bearing 20, which supports the spindle 10 in the rotary operation.
  • the pressure piece 54 is pressed in the direction of the percussion mechanism 24, so that in the basic position, the striking mechanism is in a position in which the control cams 28 and 32 are disengaged.
  • the pressure piece 54 is guided on a slotted guide in such a way that it can perform a merely translatory movement with respect to the housing 16. In this way it is achieved that, if the user of a corresponding electric hand tool device, the device of lifts a workpiece to be machined, the pressure on the springs 56 and 40 decreases and there is a rebound and so no further impact movement of the spindle is performed.
  • An arrangement as shown in the preceding figures, has the advantage that on the one hand an engagement of the cam assemblies 46 and 52 and on the other hand, the cam assemblies 48 and 60 into each other, so that a comparatively large stroke for the spindle 10 is provided what's in the illustrations in FIGS. 1 and 2 it is easy to see where in FIG. 2 the spindle 10 is shifted significantly to the left in the plane of the drawing.
  • This large axial movement which is thereby made possible for the spindle 10, allows the use of a percussion mechanism with high detent depth or high cams of the control cams 28 and 32nd
  • the stroke can be increased with the same operation of a slide switch.
