Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a torque multiplier for a wrench.
  • a torque multiplier can be used together with a manual, electric or pneumatic tool.
  • Torque multipliers can be found in US Patent Nos. 3861244 , 5176047 , 5616095 , 6012359 , 6742417 , 6810571 and 7284463 and Taiwanese Patent No. 195258 and M386143 .
  • a torque multiplier may be designed to provide a ratio such as 5:1 and 15:1 for multiplying the designed value of torque that can be exerted by a manual, electric or pneumatic tool.
  • loss of power in the torque multiplier is inevitable, and an actual ratio achievable by the torque multiplier is lower than the designed ratio.
  • the combination of the manual, electric or pneumatic tool with the torque multiplier fails to provide a multiplied value of torque as desired.
  • German utility model DE 20 2011 004979 U1 suggests a torque multiplier with detecting the torque including an input element for connection to a tool operable for exerting torque; an output element for connection to an object to be driven by the tool; a multiplying unit for connecting the input element to the output element and turning a lower value of torque at the input element to a higher value of torque at the output element; a measurement unit for measuring the higher value of torque and accordingly sending a signal to a display unit for showing the torque value.
  • said torque multiplier has a structure which is quite complex in assembly.
  • the present invention is intended to obviate or at least alleviate the problems encountered in prior art.
  • the torque multiplier is provided having the combined features of claim 1.
  • the torque multiplier 10 includes a shell 16, an input element 20, an output element 30, a multiplying unit 40, a measurement unit 50 and a display 60.
  • the shell 16 is used to contain both of the input element 20 and the multiplying unit 40.
  • the input element 20 includes a cavity for receiving a tongue 22 of a wrench 21.
  • the output element 30 includes an axle 31 for insertion in a cavity of a socket 23.
  • the multiplying unit 40 includes an end connected to the input element 20 and another end connected to the output element 30 via an axle 31.
  • the torque measurement unit 50 is attached to the shell 16.
  • the multiplying unit 40 is preferably a planetary gear train. In such a case, the shell 16 is made a ring gear.
  • the multiplying unit 40 will not be further described in detail for being conventional.
  • the measurement unit 50 includes a casing 51, a circuit board 52, a battery 53, a sensor 54, a wireless transmitter 55 and a switch 56.
  • the casing 51 is attached to the axle 31.
  • the casing 51 is used to contain the circuit board 52, the battery 53, the sensor 54 and the wireless transmitter 55.
  • the circuit board 52 is electrically connected to the battery 53, the sensor 54, the wireless transmitter 55 and the switch 56.
  • the battery 53 can be replaced with a new one.
  • the sensor 54 is further connected to the axle 31 so that the sensor 54 senses the deformation of the axle 31 when the torque is transmitted via the axle 31.
  • the sensor 54 is preferably a strain gauge.
  • the switch 56 is operable to turn the measurement unit 50 on or off.
  • the display 60 includes a wireless receiver 61, a screen 62, several buttons 63 and a siren 64. Although not shown, it should be understood that the display 60 includes a circuit board electrically connected to the wireless receiver 61, the screen 62, the buttons 63 and the siren 64. One of the buttons 63 is operable to select from unit systems for the value of the torque for example. Another one of the buttons 63 is operable to set a limit for the value of the torque for example.
  • the shell 16 In use, the shell 16, as a ring gear, must be kept in position, i.e., not rotated.
  • a bracket 11 for non-rotationally connecting the shell 16 to a stationary object 13 such as a table.
  • An end 14 of the bracket 11 is connected to the shell 16 via a nut 15.
  • Another end 12 of the bracket 11 is connected to the stationary object 13 by a threaded bolt (not shown).
  • the tongue 22 of the wrench 21 is inserted in the cavity of input element 20.
  • the axle 31 of the output element 30 is inserted in the cavity of the socket 23.
  • the socket 23 is used to receive a nut or a head of a threaded bolt.
  • the wrench 21 is operated to exert torque on the nut or the head of the threaded bolt.
  • the sensor 54 senses the deformation of the axle 31 and accordingly sends an original signal to the circuit board 52. Based on the original signal, the circuit board 52 calculates the value of the torque and instructs the wireless transmitter 55 to transmit a wireless signal.
  • the wireless receiver 61 receives the wireless signal and accordingly sends a secondary signal to the circuit board of the display 60. Based on the secondary signal, the circuit board of the display 60 determines the value of the torque and instructs the screen 62 to show the value of the torque. Moreover, the circuit board of the display 60 actuates the siren 64 when the value of the torque exceeds a predetermined limit set by operating at least one of the buttons 63.
