Definitions

  • the invention relates to a grinding device, comprising a housing in which a tool spindle is mounted for driving a tool, with a protective hood which can be locked on the housing, and with means which allow a locking of the tool spindle and the protective hood.
  • Such grinding devices are basically known in the prior art.
  • the rotational movement of the drive motor via the angle gear is transmitted to a pulley of the boom.
  • a pulley At the other end of the boom is also a pulley, which is coupled to the actual tool spindle, to which a tool, such as a grinding wheel, is attached.
  • Such devices also have an adjustable protective cover designed to prevent flying sparks from the operator and a spindle lock. Although often the drive machine itself already has a spindle lock, the spindle should be lockable on the boom, otherwise the belt drive could slip through when changing tools.
  • Such grinders thus have two important controls in addition to the switch for driving the motor: on the one hand a device for locking the tool spindle and on the other hand a device for locking the guard in the desired working position.
  • the invention has for its object to provide an improved grinding device that allows a simplified operation possible with only one actuator.
  • an actuating element is provided which is slidably mounted on the housing between a first position in which the tool spindle is released and the guard is secured against rotation, and a second position in which the tool spindle is secured against rotation and the guard is adjustable in its angular position on the housing.
  • a release of the tool spindle and a securing of the protective cover against rotation in the first position as well as a securing of the tool spindle against rotation with a simultaneous adjustability of the protective cover in the second position are made possible by a slidably mounted on the housing.
  • the actuator cooperates both with the tool spindle and with the protective cover to ensure on the one hand in the first position a release of the tool spindle and a backup of the guard against rotation, and on the other hand in the second position a backup of the tool spindle against rotation and an adjustment to allow the guard in the angular position.
  • the actuating device still has a third position in which the protective cover is detachable from the housing. In this position, the tool spindle can be freely rotatable or secured against rotation.
  • This third position differs significantly for the operator from the first and second positions, so that only in this third position, a release of the guard is possible. It may, for example, be an intermediate position between the first and the second position, in which the actuating device is in a certain position. On the other hand, this third could Position also be achieved for example by a different movement of the actuator, such as by a lateral movement, by overcoming a stronger spring or otherwise. In this way, the protective cover can be released from the usual lock and then removed from the housing.
  • the sander can be operated with one hand on the boom, i. on the housing, on which the drive belt runs, are gripped and held. With a finger of the holding hand, the actuator can be operated. The second hand remains free for the release of the tool or the adjustment or removal of the guard.
  • the actuator on a slidably received on the housing slider which acts between the first position in which the slider engages the protective cover to block it against rotation while the tool spindle is released, and the second position, in which the tool spindle is secured against rotation and the protective hood is adjustable in its angular position on the housing, is displaceable.
  • the slider may, for example, have a first projection, which engages in the second position on the tool spindle to block it against rotation, wherein further on the slide a second projection is provided which engages in the first position on the protective cover to this to secure against rotation.
  • At least one locking element on the tool spindle is assigned to the first projection in order to ensure blocking of the tool spindle in the second position.
  • the second projection is further associated with a plurality of recesses on the protective hood into which the second projection can be latched in different angular positions in order to ensure blocking of the protective hood in the first position.
  • the first projection and the second projection project from the slider in different directions.
  • a switching between the first position and the second position can be achieved by a single movement of the slide, so a combined switching between locking the guard while releasing the tool spindle on the one hand and a blockage of the tool spindle while releasing the guard on the other.
  • the two functions namely release of the tool spindle and locking the guard in the first position and blocking the tool spindle while releasing the guard for rotation in the second position, can be achieved in a particularly simple manner by moving the slider.
  • the slider is biased by a biasing means, in particular by a spring in the first position.
  • the slide is basically in the first position, so that the tool spindle is freely rotatable and the guard is locked. Only by active actuation of the slide against the action of the spring so the actuator can be transferred to the second position.
  • the slider on an insert made of a reinforced material, in particular steel, on which the first projection is formed.
  • the slider may be made of plastic, wherein the second projection may be formed integrally with the slider.
  • a guide lane is provided on the protective hood, from which the recesses project radially outward, and at least one recess is provided in the circumferential direction, which allows the guide lane to be detached from the second projection by rotation of the protective hood when the slider is in the third position to allow removal of the guard.
  • the slider is in the third position.
  • This may be, for example, an intermediate position between the first and the second position.
  • the second projection is then released from the recesses in the radial direction, so that the protective hood can be removed by twisting when the second projection is flush with the recess in the circumferential direction.
  • the slide on an actuating knob which is actuated via a recess of the housing from the outside.
  • the actuator can be activated simply by grasping the actuating knob in the recess of the housing.
  • the actuating knob is arranged such that accidental operation is not possible.
  • the actuating button may be located approximately within the housing contour, that is to say be reachable, but not project beyond it.
  • the slide guides are assigned to the housing, which allow a displacement of the slider in the radial direction of the tool spindle.
  • the tool spindle can preferably be driven via a belt drive, wherein the grinding device can preferably be designed as a fillet weld grinder.
  • FIG. 1 An inventive grinding device is in Fig. 1 shown in perspective and generally designated by the numeral 10.
  • the grinding device 10 has a drive 11 in the form of an angle grinder drive, with a handle 12, in which a motor 14 is received, and on which a gear 16 is flanged in the form of an angular gear.
  • a gear 16 is flanged in the form of an angular gear.
  • an elongate arm 18 is accommodated, which is enclosed by a housing 20.
  • a tool spindle to which a tool 22 is clamped in the form of a grinding or cutting tool, and a protective cover 24 which is adjustably received in different angular positions.
  • a recess 21 is provided on the housing 20, which allows an intervention with a finger.
  • a belt drive is added, which transmits the output movement of the gear 16 of the drive 11 to the tool spindle.
  • Such a grinding device can be used in particular as a so-called fillet weld grinder.
  • the grinding device 10 has a generally designated 32 actuator (see. Fig. 2 ), which is activatable via an actuating knob 56 upon engagement of a finger in the recess 21 of the housing 20.
  • actuator 32 can be a locking of the tool spindle and the guard and a removal of the guard in each case controlled positions.
  • a first position is shown, in which the tool spindle 26 is freely rotatable and the guard 24 is secured against rotation.
  • Fig. 2 are the storage of the tool spindle 26 by means of two bearings 52 and the drive by means of a belt drive 54 closer, of which only the belt 55 can be seen.
  • the actuator 32 has a slide 34 which is guided in the radial direction of the tool spindle 26 between two guide webs 35 slidably.
  • the slider 34 is biased by a spring 42 designed as a compression spring in a direction remote from the tool spindle 26 and is located in the in the Fig. 2 and 2a shown first position from the inside to a wall of the housing 20, through which the recess 21 is limited.
  • the spring 42 is interposed between a spring retainer 40 fixedly received on the housing 20 and the operating knob 56 (see FIG. Fig. 2a ) is guided and clamped on a mandrel 44.
  • the slider 34 is integrally formed with the operating knob 56 and the mandrel 44 made of plastic, for example, as a plastic injection molded part, and has, as in Fig. 2 recognizable, an approximately rectangular outline.
  • cam ring 28 On the tool spindle 26 facing the end portion of the slider 34, an insert 36 is received in steel, from which a first projection 38 projects beyond the outline of the slider 34 in the direction of the tool spindle 26 out.
  • a cam ring 28 On the tool spindle 26, a cam ring 28 is pressed or secured in any other way against relative rotation.
  • cam ring 28 On cam ring 28 are four cams 30 provided at equal angular intervals to each other, which protrude outward.
  • a second projection 50 is further provided, which is offset from the first projection 38 by a certain amount in the direction of the spring receptacle 40 and in the illustration in accordance with Fig. 2 protrudes upward into the plane of the drawing.
  • This second projection 50 is in Fig. 2 thus also hatched, is rectangular in shape and enclosed by the insert 36 with two correspondingly shaped legs. The second projection 50 thus serves at the same time for fixing and positioning of the insert 36 within the slider 34th
  • the second projection 50 acts in the in Fig. 2 and 2a shown position with an associated recess 46 on the guard 24 together.
  • the protective hood 24 has, as shown in the illustration Fig. 4 recognizable, a total of 48 designated guide lane on which a total of five radially extending from the tool spindle 26 recesses 46 are arranged at equal angular intervals to each other.
  • the guide lane 48 also has radially inwardly offset recesses 58, 59 with respect to the depressions 46, which in an intermediate position allow the second projection to move out of the guide lane 48 in the circumferential direction.
  • the second projection 50 engages in one of the recesses 46 on the guard 24, so that the guard 24 is secured against rotation.
  • the associated recess 46 is covered by the boom 18.
  • the second projection 50 engages with a nose at the end in the recess 46 and thus locks the guard 24.
  • the first projection 38 is sufficiently spaced from the cams 30 of the cam ring 28.
  • the first projection reaches the position 38 'to the cam ring 28 of the tool spindle 26 and effected by abutment on a Cams 30 a backup of the tool spindle 26 against rotation.
  • the second projection is in a position designated by 50 ', so that it is released from the underlying recess 46 of the protective cover 24.
  • the guard 24 can thus rotate within the guide track 48 in this second position, in which the tool spindle 26 is secured against rotation.
  • intermediate position namely the third position shown, in which a release of the protective cover 24 from the housing 20 is made possible.
  • the slide In this third position, the slide is in a designated 34 "intermediate position, which is achieved by a corresponding actuation of the actuating knob 56".
  • the second projection In this intermediate position the second projection is in an intermediate position between the first position and the second position designated by 50 ", so that the second projection is aligned either with the one recess 58 at one end of the guide track 48 or the second recess 59 at the other end of the guide track 48.
  • the protective cover 24 can thus be moved out of the second projection 50 "by further rotation with the guide track 48 and thus be released from the housing 20 and removed.
