Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Handwerkzeugmaschine, insbesondere eine elektrisch betriebene Handwerkzeugmaschine wie beispielsweise ein Akku-Schrauber oder ein Akku-Bohrer, mit einer Spindel zur Aufnahme eines Werkzeugs nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a hand tool, in particular an electrically operated hand tool such as a cordless screwdriver or a cordless drill, with a spindle for receiving a tool according to the preamble of claim 1.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

In der 10 2004 058 809 A1 wird eine als Akku-Schrauber ausgestaltete Handwerkzeugmaschine beschrieben, deren elektrischer Antriebsmotor über ein mehrstufiges Planetengetriebe eine Spindel zur Aufnahme eines Werkzeugs antreibt. Die Spindel ist über ein werkzeugseitiges Lager und axial hierzu beabstandet über ein motorseitiges Lager drehbar gelagert, wobei das werkzeugseitige Lager üblicherweise als Festlager und das motorseitige Lager als Loslager ausgeführt ist. Das motorseitige Loslager liegt axial zwischen dem stirnseitigen Bereich der Spindel, an dem diese mit einem Bauteil des Planetengetriebes gekoppelt ist, und dem werkzeugseitigen Festlager.In the 10 2004 058 809 A1 a designed as a cordless screwdriver hand tool is described, the electric drive motor drives a spindle for receiving a tool via a multi-stage planetary gear. The spindle is rotatably mounted on a tool-side bearing and axially spaced therefrom via a motor-side bearing, wherein the tool-side bearing is usually designed as a fixed bearing and the motor-side bearing as floating bearing. The motor-side movable bearing is located axially between the frontal region of the spindle, where it is coupled to a component of the planetary gear, and the tool-side fixed bearing.

Um einen geringen Rundlauffehler des Werkzeuges zu erzielen, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Lagerstellen zur Lagerung der Spindel einen möglichst großen Abstand zueinander aufweisen. Andererseits ist man jedoch zur Erzielung kurzer Baulängen des Antriebsstranges bestrebt, den Lagerabstand möglichst kurz zu halten oder nur ein Lager zu wählen, was jedoch auf Kosten der Rundlaufqualität und der mechanischen Steifigkeit geht.In order to achieve a low concentricity error of the tool, it is advantageous if the bearing points for supporting the spindle have the greatest possible distance from each other. On the other hand, one strives to achieve short overall lengths of the drive train, the bearing distance as short as possible or to choose only one bearing, but at the cost of concentricity and mechanical rigidity.

In EP 2 095 909 A1 ist beschrieben, dass der Planetenträger der vierten Getriebestufe das antriebsseitige Ende der Abtriebswelle aufnimmt und der Planetenträger der vierten Getriebestufe im Getriebegehäuse radial gelagert ist.In EP 2 095 909 A1 is described that the planet carrier of the fourth gear stage receives the drive-side end of the output shaft and the planet carrier of the fourth gear stage is radially mounted in the gear housing.

WO 2009/024165 A1 offenbart, dass für eine sichere radiale Lagerung der Abtriebswelle der abtriebsseitige Planetenträger mittels eines Wälzlagers radial gelagert ist, wobei das Wälzlager zwischen dem Getriebegehäuse und dem abtriebsseitigen Planetenträger angeordnet ist. Die Lagerung des antriebsseitigen Endes der Abtriebswelle erfolgt dabei gleitend im abtriebsseitigen Planetenträger, der hierzu eine Innenbohrung aufweist, die die Abtriebswelle 44 aufnimmt. WO 2009/024165 A1 discloses that for a secure radial bearing of the output shaft of the output side planetary carrier is radially mounted by means of a rolling bearing, wherein the rolling bearing between the gear housing and the output side planet carrier is arranged. The bearing of the drive-side end of the output shaft is effected slidably in the output-side planet carrier, which has an inner bore for this purpose, which receives the output shaft 44.

Offenbarung der ErfindungDisclosure of the invention

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, mit einfachen konstruktiven Maßnahmen eine Handwerkzeugmaschine wie beispielsweise einen Akku-Schrauber mit kurzer Baulänge auszubilden, wobei zugleich eine hohe Rundlaufqualität der das Werkzeug aufnehmenden Spindel gegeben sein soll.The invention is based on the object with simple constructive measures a hand tool such as a cordless screwdriver with a short overall length, at the same time a high concentricity of the tool receiving spindle should be given.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Die Unteransprüche geben zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen an.This object is achieved with the features of claim 1. The dependent claims indicate expedient developments.

Die erfindungsgemäße Handwerkzeugmaschine, bei der es sich insbesondere um eine elektrisch betriebene Handwerkzeugmaschine wie beispielsweise einen Akku-Schrauber, einen Akku-Bohrschrauber, eine Akku-Schlagbohrmaschine oder einen Akku-Bohrer handelt, ist mit einem Getriebe ausgestattet, das im Antriebsstrang zwischen dem Antriebsmotor der Handwerkzeugmaschine und einer Spindel zur Aufnahme eines Werkzeuges angeordnet ist. Über das Getriebe findet eine Untersetzung der hohen Antriebsdrehzahl des Motors auf die gewünschte geringere Drehzahl der Spindel statt. Die Spindel ist über ein werkzeugseitiges Lager und ein motorseitiges Lager gelagert, wobei das motorseitige Lager sich radial an einem sich in gleicher Richtung drehenden Bauteil des Getriebes abstützt.The hand tool of the invention, which is in particular an electrically operated hand tool such as a cordless screwdriver, a cordless drill, a cordless hammer drill or a cordless drill is equipped with a transmission in the drive train between the drive motor of Hand tool and a spindle for receiving a tool is arranged. About the transmission is a reduction of the high input speed of the motor to the desired lower speed of the spindle instead. The spindle is mounted on a tool-side bearing and a motor-side bearing, wherein the motor-side bearing is radially supported on a rotating in the same direction component of the transmission.

Diese Ausführung weist verschiedene Vorteile auf. Es kann insbesondere die Baulänge reduziert werden, da ein Bauteil des Getriebes unmittelbar an der Abstützung des motorseitigen Lagers teilnimmt, so dass das motorseitige Lager axial bis in den Bereich des Getriebes hineingeführt ist bzw. das Getriebe sich axial bis zu diesem Lager erstreckt. Das Getriebebauteil, an dem sich das Lager radial abstützt, kann gegebenenfalls dazu verwendet werden, die Spindel anzutreiben. Auf diese Weise wird eine in Achsrichtung besonders kompakte Ausführung erreicht. Zugleich ist ein verhältnismäßig langer Lagerabstand realisierbar, insbesondere in der vorteilhaften Ausführung, dass sich das motorseitige Lager benachbart zu der dem Getriebe zugewandten Stirnseite der Spindel befindet. Der verhältnismäßig große Lagerabstand hat eine hohe Rundlaufqualität zur Folge. Außerdem ist die Verlustleistung des Lagers dadurch reduziert, dass das motorseitige Lager die Spindel nicht an dem ruhenden Getriebegehäuse abstützt, sondern an dem sich drehenden Planetenträger.This embodiment has several advantages. In particular, the overall length can be reduced since a component of the transmission directly participates in the support of the motor-side bearing, so that the motor-side bearing is guided axially into the region of the transmission or the transmission extends axially up to this bearing. The transmission component, on which the bearing is supported radially, can optionally be used to drive the spindle. This way will Achieved a particularly compact design in the axial direction. At the same time a relatively long bearing distance can be realized, in particular in the advantageous embodiment, that the engine-side bearing is adjacent to the transmission facing end face of the spindle. The relatively large bearing distance results in a high concentricity quality. In addition, the power loss of the bearing is reduced by the fact that the motor-side bearing the spindle is not supported on the stationary gear housing, but on the rotating planet carrier.

Die genannten Vorteile können kostenneutral erreicht werden. Es sind keine zusätzlichen Bauteile für die Realisierung der erfindungsgemäßen Lagerung der Spindel in der Handwerkzeugmaschine erforderlich.The advantages mentioned can be achieved cost-neutral. There are no additional components for the realization of the inventive storage of the spindle in the power tool required.

Gemäß einer zweckmäßigen Ausführung ist das Getriebe als Planetengetriebe ausgebildet, welches vorzugsweise zwei oder mehr Stufen zur Untersetzung der Antriebsdrehzahl des elektrischen Antriebsmotors auf die Spindeldrehzahl aufweist. Das motorseitige Lager stützt sich radial an einem Getriebeteil des Planetengetriebes ab, insbesondere an einem Planetenträger, wobei auf eine axiale Abstützung an dem Getriebebauteil verzichtet wird, so dass in diesem Fall das motorseitige Lager zweckmäßigerweise axial fest mit der Spindel verbunden ist. Gegebenenfalls ist zusätzlich eine axiale Abstützung zumindest in einer Achsrichtung erlaubt. Gegebenenfalls kommt auch eine axiale Abstützung in beide Achsrichtungen der Spindel über das betreffende Getriebebauteil in Betracht.According to an expedient embodiment, the transmission is designed as a planetary gear, which preferably has two or more stages for the reduction of the drive speed of the electric drive motor to the spindle speed.

Optionally, an axial support is additionally allowed at least in one axial direction. Optionally, an axial support in both axial directions of the spindle via the respective transmission component comes into consideration.

Das motorseitige Lager kann bei mehrstufigen Planetengetrieben beispielsweise von einem motornahen Planetenträger oder dem mittleren Planetenträger radial abgestützt werden. Darüber hinaus ist es auch möglich, das motorseitige Lager im Ritzel der werkzeugseitigen Planetenstufe oder dem Ritzel der mittleren Planetenstufe radial abzustützen.The engine-side bearing can be supported radially in multi-stage planetary gears, for example, by a planetary carrier near the motor or the central planet carrier. In addition, it is also possible to radially support the motor-side bearing in the pinion of the tool-side planetary stage or the pinion of the middle planetary stage.

Das motorseitige Lager ist bevorzugt als Loslager mit axialer Bewegungsmöglichkeit ausgeführt, wohingegen das werkzeugseitige Lager zweckmäßigerweise als Festlager mit axialer Arretierung gegenüber dem Gehäuse der Handwerkzeugmaschine ausgebildet ist. Das motorseitige Loslager kann, wie bereits vorstehend erwähnt, axial am Planetenträger fixiert sein und axial beweglich auf der Spindel gelagert sein. Möglich ist auch eine Ausführung, bei der das Loslager axial auf der Spindel fixiert und axial im Planetenträger beweglich gehalten ist.The engine-side bearing is preferably designed as a movable bearing with axial movement possibility, whereas the tool-side bearing is suitably designed as a fixed bearing with axial locking relative to the housing of the power tool.

Die Lager können entweder als Wälzlager oder als Gleitlager ausgeführt sein, wobei gegebenenfalls auch eine gemischte Ausführung in Betracht kommt, bei der ein Lager als Wälzlager und ein Lager als Gleitlager ausgebildet ist.There are also versions into consideration, in which both bearings are designed as floating bearing or both bearings as a fixed bearing or the tool-side bearing as a floating bearing and the motor-side bearing as a fixed bearing. The bearings can be designed either as a rolling bearing or as a sliding bearing, wherein, if appropriate, a mixed design is also considered, in which a bearing is designed as a rolling bearing and a bearing as a sliding bearing.

Der Spindellock umfasst Spindellockwalzen zur Zentrierung der Spindel, die zweckmäßigerweise axial zwischen Fest- und Loslager der Spindel angeordnet sind.According to the invention, a spindle lock is provided for centering the spindle, which is arranged axially between the tool-side bearing and the bearing on the motor side. The spindle lock comprises Spindellockwalzen for centering the spindle, which are expediently arranged axially between the fixed and floating bearings of the spindle.
