Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connecting device-housing combination for a machine tool, in particular for a hand tool, with a housing comprising at least two separate housing parts, wherein the separate housing parts are to be connected via a connecting device.
  • Electromotive powered hand tools such. Angle grinders have as drive an electric motor, which is arranged in a motor housing of the power tool, to which a handle housing is connected, consisting of two handle half shells.
  • the connection between the handle housing and the motor housing via a connecting device which may optionally include a pivot bearing for ergonomic reasons, which allows a Verfretekeit between the handle housing and the motor housing. It must be ensured that the functionality is not impaired even during prolonged operation despite a considerable load with abrasive dirt particles, which can settle in the area of the pivot bearing between the handle and motor housing.
  • a hand tool machine with a motor housing with which a handle housing is rotatably connected.
  • the rotatability of the handle housing relative to the motor housing is accomplished by means of a rotary bearing, which has a spherical section on the motor housing and a concave portion on the handle housing includes.
  • the concave portion has radially inwardly facing ribs which abut against the spherical portion 123. Between adjacent ribs extends an annular space in which a radial extension latchingly protrudes, which is formed integrally with the spherical portion. From the annulus no dirt particles can be derived.
  • the invention is based on the object, a connecting device-housing combination for a machine tool, in particular for a hand tool, with simple constructive measures in such a way that between different housing parts over a long period of operation functional Verfitschkeit is given.
  • the connecting device-housing combination according to the invention can be used in a machine tool, which is preferably a hand-held power tool such as e.g. an angle grinder acts.
  • the housing is at least two parts, wherein the two housing parts are preferably a handle housing on which the machine tool is held by the operator, and a motor housing for receiving a drive motor.
  • the connecting device between the two housing parts comprises a rotary bearing, so that the two housing parts can be rotated relative to each other about the axis of rotation of the bearing. Furthermore, it is provided that in at least one housing part leading to the rotary bearing discharge channel is introduced for dirt particles.
  • the discharge channel is preferably guided up to the contact region between the two bearing parts which can be rotated relative to one another. Due to the relative rotation during operation of the machine tool, the dirt particles reach the region of the discharge channel and can be removed therefrom. As a result, a self-cleaning effect is realized for which no active measures are required, but only by the Relative movement between the housing parts and associated with it via the relative movement between the bearing parts works.
  • the discharge channel preferably runs in the radial direction, but at least with a component in the radial direction, that is possibly at an angle to the radial direction, in order to discharge the dirt particles in this direction from the area of the rotation bearing.
  • the discharge channel is expediently guided inwards into the interior of the housing, in principle also a connection to the outside via the discharge channel being considered, so that the dirt particles are led out through the discharge channel and released into the environment.
  • the discharge channel leads inwards, then it is expedient to ensure that the dirt particles are continued inside to prevent them from depositing inside the housing.
  • the discharge channel is led to a flow channel through the housing, which leads a cooling air flow for cooling the motor and other components of the machine tool through the housing.
  • the discharge channel discharges into this flow channel for the cooling air
  • the dirt particles which are discharged via the discharge channel from the rotary bearing, are guided into the cooling air flow and led out of this via a housing outlet opening out of the housing. It proves to be advantageous that the cooling air flow exerts a suction effect on the discharge channel, so that the dirt particles, which are located in the discharge channel, are transported by the suction in the cooling air flow.
  • the discharge channel has two radially extending in the opposite direction portions, of which a first Section inward into the housing interior and the second section is guided to the outside.
  • the two sections of the discharge channel are expediently assigned to the respective, relatively rotatable bearing parts, so that part of the dirt particles are guided radially outwards directly into the environment and a part of the dirt particles is led away radially inwardly from the rotary bearing.
  • the inwardly and outwardly guided portions of the discharge channel are not coaxial with each other, but offset from each other, so that there are in fact different discharge channels.
  • a plurality of drainage channels is arranged, which expediently all extend inwards, wherein, where appropriate, there is also the possibility that the drainage channels all extend to the outside or part of the discharge channels inside and part outside.
  • the discharge channels can be distributed uniformly over the circumference, or, according to a preferred embodiment, non-uniformly, whereby constructive circumstances can be taken into account.
  • the discharge channel is located on the front side of a housing part and is open towards the free end, said free end is closed in the assembled state of the second housing part, whereby a clear discharge direction of the dirt particles is defined via the discharge channel.
  • the discharge channel is formed as a recess which is introduced into the end face of a housing part and extends radially between the contact surface of the rotary bearing part, this housing part and the housing interior.
  • the rotary bearing is designed for example as a latching projection on each housing part, wherein the latching projections are to bring to the housing parts in a latching position, such that in the axial direction of the housing parts or the rotary bearing an effective positive engagement is given, but at the same time a Relativverformat Wegkeit about the longitudinal or ., Rotation axis of the rotary bearing is realized.
  • the discharge channel extends in the radial direction to the contact surface between the latching projections on the housing parts to be joined together, wherein in the axial direction of the discharge channel preferably only has an extension corresponding to the axial length of a latching projection, even if two or more latching projections are arranged axially one behind the other.
  • hand tool 1 which is for example an angle grinder, has a multi-part housing 2, of which a motor housing 3 and a two-part handle housing 4 with the two handle half shells 4a and 4b are shown.
  • motor housing 3 In the motor housing 3, an electric drive motor 5 is received, which drives a rotatably mounted tool shaft 7 via a symbolically drawn drive connection 6, to which a tool 8 is fastened.
  • the motor housing 3 and the handle housing 4 are connected to each other via a connecting device 9.
  • the connecting device 9 comprises, as Fig. 2 can be seen, latching or connecting parts 10 and 11 on one of the housing parts, which engage in associated, correspondingly formed latching or connecting parts 12 and 13 latching.
  • the locking or connecting parts 10, 11, 12, 13 are tooth-like with radial projections and recesses formed with tooth tips and an intermediate tooth base and extending in the circumferential direction.
  • the latching or connecting parts 10, 11 on the housing part 4 and the corresponding latching or connecting recesses 12, 13 are arranged axially one behind the other on the housing part 3, wherein the tooth-like Projections and the corresponding recesses transverse to Connecting or loosening direction 14 and thus extend in the radial direction.
  • a plurality of discharge channels 15 are introduced, which are open to the front side and in the axial direction, ie in connection or release direction 14, to the front side immediately adjacent, sawtooth-like and circumferential tooth base between the parallel connecting parts 12 and 13 extend.
  • the discharge channels 15, which are formed as recesses in the motor housing 3 communicate with the connecting device 9 between the housing parts 3 and 4.
  • the connecting device 9 Due to the rotational symmetry of the connecting projections 10, 11 and the associated connecting recesses 12 and 13, the connecting device 9 also allows rotation about the axis which is parallel to the connection or release direction 14; The connecting device 9 thus represents at the same time a rotary bearing, which creates a relative rotational possibility between the housing parts 3 and 4 to be connected.
  • the connecting projections 10, 11 and the connecting recesses 12 and 13 move relative to each other in the circumferential direction with the effect that dirt particles which have settled in the region of the contact surface between the connecting projections and the connecting recesses are transported in the direction of the discharge channels 15 and derived therefrom from the connecting device or the rotary bearing.
  • a self-cleaning effect in the connecting device or the rotary bearing 9 is realized.
  • a lip or other protrusion can be arranged on a tooth projection or in the region of a tooth base, which transports the settled dirt particles in the direction of the discharge channel.
  • Fig. 3 can be seen extending the recesses formed as recesses channels 15 at least substantially in the radial direction, both radially outward to the outside of the tooth-shaped connecting elements on the housing part 3 and radially inwardly to the housing interior.
  • Dirt particles which deposit in the region of the contact surfaces between the intermeshing, tooth-shaped connecting elements between the housing parts 3 and 4
  • the discharge channels 15 suitably communicate with a flow channel, which is formed in the housing and extends in the axial direction and flows in the cooling air for cooling the motor.
  • the dirt particles guided inwards via the discharge channels 15 are detected by the cooling air flow and are discharged to the outside with the latter via outflow openings in the housing.
  • the discharge channel 15 extends in the axial direction as far as the tooth root between adjacent, radially protruding connecting projections.
  • the discharge channel 15 extends in the axial direction only to the first tooth base, but not up to the second tooth base, which lies at a greater axial distance from the free end face. Nevertheless, it may be expedient to make the axial extent of the discharge channel so great that the second tooth base or further following tooth roots are also achieved.
  • Fig. 5 is a detail of the handle housing 4 shown in the region of the connecting device, which at the same time the Rotary bearing forms.
