Description

GEBIET DER ERFINDUNGFIELD OF THE INVENTION

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine meißelnde Handwerkzeugmaschine gemäß dem Oberbegriff nach Anspruch 1 und wie aus der CH 662 978 A5 bekannt.The present invention relates to a chiseling hand tool according to the preamble of claim 1 and as shown in CH 662 978 A5 known.

Eine weitere meißelnde Handwerkzeugmaschine ist z.B. aus der US 5,111,890 bekannt. Ein pneumatisches Schlagwerk hat einen Erregerkolben, der permanent von einem Motor längs einer Achse reziprok bewegt ist. Eine Luftfeder koppelt einen als Kolben ausgebildeten Schläger an die Bewegung des Erregerkolbens an. Das Schlagwerk soll abschalten, wenn der Schläger anstelle auf einen Zwischenschläger zu schlagen in einen Anschlag läuft. Hierfür sind Belüftungsöffnungen vorgesehen, welche der Schläger an dem Anschlag anliegend freigibt. Die Luftfeder wird über die Belüftungsöffnungen belüftet und damit deaktiviert. Sobald der Schläger wieder über die Belüftungsöffnungen geschoben ist, beginnt das Schlagwerk erneut zu schlagen. Der Schläger kann bereits durch einen Rückprall von dem Anschlag ausreichend zum Verschließen über die Belüftungsöffnungen zurückgleiten. In diesem Fall erfolgt nachteiligerweise kein automatisches Deaktivieren des Schlagwerks.Another chiseling hand tool is eg from the US 5,111,890 known. A pneumatic percussion mechanism has an exciter piston which is constantly reciprocally moved by a motor along an axis. An air spring couples a racket formed as a piston to the movement of the exciter piston. The hammer mechanism should switch off when the club hits a stop instead of hitting an intermediate club. For this purpose ventilation openings are provided, which releases the racket to the attack fitting. The air spring is vented through the ventilation openings and thus deactivated. Once the racket is pushed back over the vents, the percussion begins to strike again. The racket can already slide back by a rebound from the stop sufficiently for closing over the ventilation openings. In this case, disadvantageously, no automatic deactivation of the percussion mechanism takes place.

OFFENBARUNG DER ERFINDUNGDISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION

Die erfindungsgemäße Handwerkzeugmaschine nach Anspruch 1 hat eine Werkzeugaufnahme zum Haltern eines meißelnden Werkzeugs. Ein pneumatisches Schlagwerk der Handwerkzeugmaschine hat einen Schläger, einen Erreger und ein Führungsrohr. Der Schläger ist zum Ausüben von Schlägen in Schlagrichtung auf das Werkzeug ausgelegt. Der Erreger ist motorgetrieben. Der Schläger ist an die reziproke Bewegung des Erregers mittels einer Luftfeder angekoppelt. Der Schläger ist anliegend an dem Führungsrohr längs einer Arbeitsachse geführt. Der Schläger ist bei einer Bewegung zwischen einer Schlagstellung und dem Erreger mit einer konstanten Führungslänge an dem Führungsrohr geführt und bei Überschreiten der Schlagstellung in Schlagrichtung ist die Führungslänge verringert. Die Handwerkzeugmaschine ist mit einer Schrägführung versehen, in welche den Schläger nach Überschreiten der Schlagstellung eingeführt ist und welche den Schläger gegenüber der Arbeitsachse verkippt.The hand tool of the invention according to claim 1 has a tool holder for holding a chiseling tool. A pneumatic percussion of the power tool has a racket, a pathogen and a guide tube. The racket is designed to apply impact blows to the tool. The pathogen is motor driven. The racket is coupled to the reciprocal movement of the exciter by means of an air spring. The racket is guided adjacent to the guide tube along a working axis. The racket is guided at a movement between a stroke position and the exciter with a constant guide length of the guide tube and when the impact position in the direction of impact is exceeded, the guide length is reduced. The hand tool is provided with a slanted guide, in which the racket is introduced after exceeding the impact position and which tilts the racket relative to the working axis.

Während des Arbeitsbetriebs fliegt der Schläger in Schlagrichtung bis zu der Schlagstellung und schlägt dort auf das Werkzeug oder einen Zwischenschläger (Döpper). Falls der Anwender mit der Handwerkzeugmaschine nicht arbeitet, d.h. das Werkzeug nicht an einen Untergrund presst, kann der Schläger über die Schlagposition hinausgleiten. Die axiale Führung des Schlägers wird gezielt reduziert, um eine Schrägstellung des Schlägers gegenüber der Arbeitsachse zu provozieren. Die Schrägstellung kann ein Hängenbleiben des Schlägers fördern, um das Abschalten des Schlagwerks zu begünstigen. Der Schläger läuft in die Schrägführung erst nach Überschreiten der Schlagstellung ein. Der Schläger gelangt spätestens mit einem axialen Anschlag in die Schrägführung. Der normaler Weise während der Arbeitsbetriebs sorgsam koaxial zu der Arbeitsachse geführte Schläger wird gezielt gekippt. Das Kippen hemmt die Bewegung des Schlägers und begünstigt das Liegenbleiben in einer Stellung zum Abstellen des Schlagwerks, z.B. hinter den Belüftungsöffnungen.During operation, the bat flies in the direction of impact up to the impact position and strikes there on the tool or an intermediate beater (striker). If the user does not work with the hand tool, ie not the tool to a Underground presses, the racket can slide beyond the stroke position. The axial guidance of the racket is deliberately reduced in order to provoke an inclined position of the racket relative to the working axis. The inclination can promote a sticking of the racket to favor the shutdown of the percussion. The racket runs into the inclined guide only after exceeding the impact position. The racket reaches at the latest with an axial stop in the inclined guide. The normal way while working carefully coaxial with the working axis guided racket is tilted targeted. The tilting inhibits the movement of the racket and favors the staying in a position to stop the percussion mechanism, eg behind the ventilation openings.

Eine Ausgestaltung sieht vor, dass Belüftungsöffnungen zum Belüften der Luftfeder vorgesehen sind. Die Belüftungsöffnungen sind derart angeordnet sind, dass der Schläger die Luftfeder gegenüber den Belüftungsöffnungen isoliert, wenn der Schläger in Schlagrichtung vor der Schlagstellung ist, und andernfalls die Belüftungsöffnungen freigibt. Die Luftfeder kann somit vorzugsweise belüftet werden, sobald der Schläger über die Schlagstellung hinausgleitet.One embodiment provides that ventilation openings are provided for ventilating the air spring. The ventilation openings are arranged such that the racket isolates the air spring from the ventilation openings when the racket is in the direction of impact before the impact position, and otherwise releases the ventilation openings. The air spring can thus be preferably ventilated as soon as the racket slides beyond the impact position.

Die Schrägführung kann eine zu der Arbeitsachse weisende, radiale Lagerfläche und der Schläger eine die Lagerfläche kontaktierende, radiale Gleitfläche aufweisen. Eine, vorzugsweise genau eine, der Lagerfläche oder Gleitfläche ist asymmetrisch zu der Arbeitsachse ausgebildet. Die Schrägführung bewirkt eine resultierende Kraft in einer Winkelrichtung auf den Schläger, welche mangels einer Drehsymmetrie nicht kompensiert ist. In Folge kippt der Schläger. Der Schläger ist dabei vorteilhafterweise mit seinem in Schlagrichtung hinteren Ende in dem Führungsrohr geführt.The oblique guide can have a bearing surface pointing to the radial axis, and the racket have a bearing surface contacting radial sliding surface. One, preferably exactly one, of the bearing surface or sliding surface is formed asymmetrically to the working axis. The oblique guide causes a resultant force in an angular direction on the racket, which is not compensated for lack of rotational symmetry. As a result, the racket tilts. The racket is advantageously guided with its rear end in the direction of impact in the guide tube.

Die Lagerfläche oder die Gleitfläche kann unter nur einer Winkelrichtung einen in radialer Richtung vorstehenden Vorsprung aufweisen. Ein Achse der Lagerfläche oder eine Achse der Gleitfläche kann zu der Arbeitsachse parallel versetzt oder gegenüber der Arbeitsachse verkippt sein.The bearing surface or the sliding surface may have a radially protruding projection in only one angular direction. An axis of the bearing surface or an axis of the sliding surface may be offset parallel to the working axis or tilted relative to the working axis.

Der Schläger kann einen Kolben und einen Stößel aufweisen. Der Kolben schließt in dem Führungsrohr die pneumatische Kammer ab und ist von dem Führungsrohr zwangsgeführt. Der Stößel ist in Schlagrichtung nach dem Kolben und bildet die Schlagfläche, welche auf den Zwischenschläger oder das Werkzeug aufschlägt. Der Stößel kann einen geringeren Durchmesser als der Kolben aufweisen und ist vorzugsweise nicht von dem Führungsrohr geführt. Die Schrägführung führt den Stößel, sofern der Schläger über die Schlagstellung vorgerückt ist. Die Unterteilung des Schlägers in Kolben und Stößel ist nur hinsichtlich ihrer Funktion bzw. Geometrie zu verstehen. Kolben und Schläger sind ein monolithischer Körper; Kolben und Schläger können nicht voneinander getrennt oder zueinander verschoben werden.The racket may comprise a piston and a plunger. The piston terminates in the guide tube from the pneumatic chamber and is positively guided by the guide tube. The plunger is in the direction of impact after the piston and forms the striking surface, which strikes the intermediate beater or the tool. The plunger may have a smaller diameter than the piston and is preferably not guided by the guide tube. The slanted guide guides the ram, provided the racket over the impact position has advanced. The subdivision of the racket in the piston and plunger is to be understood only in terms of their function or geometry. Pistons and clubs are a monolithic body; Pistons and clubs can not be separated from each other or moved to each other.

Der Stößel kann eine zu der Achse des Kolbens asymmetrische ausgebildete Radialfläche aufweisen. Ein Mittelpunkt der Kontur der Radialfläche liegt nicht auf der Achse.The plunger may have an asymmetric radial surface formed to the axis of the piston. A center of the contour of the radial surface is not on the axis.

AUSFÜHRUNGSFORMEN DER ERFINDUNGEMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

Fig. 1 zeigt als Beispiel einer meißelnden Handwerkzeugmaschine schematisch einen Bohrhammer 1. Der Bohrhammer 1 hat eine Werkzeugaufnahme 2, in welche ein Schaftende 3 eines Werkzeug, z.B. eines des Bohrmeißels 4, eingesetzt werden kann. Einen primären Antrieb des Bohrhammers 1 bildet ein Motor 5, welcher ein Schlagwerk 6 und eine Abtriebswelle 7 antreibt. Ein Anwender kann den Bohrhammer 1 mittels eines Handgriffs 8 führen und mittels eines Systemschalters 9 den Bohrhammer 1 in Betrieb nehmen. Im Betrieb dreht der Bohrhammer 1 den Bohrmeißel 4 kontinuierlich um eine Arbeitsachse 10 und kann dabei den Bohrmeißel 4 in Schlagrichtung 11 längs der Arbeitsachse 10 in einen Untergrund schlagen. Das Schlagwerk 6 und vorzugsweise die weiteren Antriebskomponenten sind innerhalb eines Maschinengehäuses 12 angeordnet. Fig. 1 schematically shows a hammer drill 1 as an example of a chiseling hand tool . The hammer drill 1 has a tool holder 2, in which a shank end 3 of a tool, for example one of the drill bit 4, can be used. a primary drive of the hammer drill 1 forms a motor 5, which drives a striking mechanism 6 and an output shaft 7 . A user can guide the hammer drill 1 by means of a handle 8 and take means of a system switch 9, the hammer drill 1 is in operation. In operation, the hammer drill 1 rotates the drill bit 4 continuously about a working axis 10 and can beat the drill bit 4 in the direction of impact 11 along the working axis 10 in a substrate. The striking mechanism 6 and preferably the further drive components are arranged within a machine housing 12 .

Das Schlagwerk 6 ist ein motorgetriebenes, pneumatisches Schlagwerk 6. Ein Erreger 13 und ein Schläger 14 sind in dem Schlagwerk 6 längs der Arbeitsachse 10 beweglich geführt. Der Erreger 13 ist über einen Exzenter 15 oder einen Taumelfinger an den Motor 5 angekoppelt und zu einer periodischen, linearen Bewegung längs der Arbeitsachse 10 gezwungen. Eine Luftfeder gebildet durch eine pneumatische Kammer 16 zwischen Erreger 13 und Schläger 14 koppelt eine Bewegung des Schlägers 14 an die Bewegung des Erregers 13 an. Der Schläger 14 kann direkt auf ein hinteres Ende des Bohrmeißels 4 aufschlagen oder mittelbar über einen im Wesentlichen ruhenden Zwischenschläger 17 einen Teil seines Impuls auf den Bohrmeißel 4 übertragen.The percussion 6 is a motor-driven, pneumatic percussion 6. An exciter 13 and a racket 14 are movably guided in the striking mechanism 6 along the working axis 10 . The exciter 13 is coupled via an eccentric 15 or a wobble finger to the motor 5 and forced to a periodic, linear movement along the working axis 10 . An air spring formed by a pneumatic chamber 16 between exciter 13 and racket 14 couples a movement of the racket 14 to the movement of the exciter 13 . The bat 14 can strike directly on a rear end of the drill bit 4 or indirectly transfer part of its pulse to the drill bit 4 via a substantially resting intermediate beater 17 .

Beim Abbau einer Wand oder eines Untergrund, d.h. im Arbeitsbetrieb, drücken der Anwender oder das Gewicht des Bohrhammers 1 den Bohrmeißel 4 und den Zwischenschläger 17 entgegen der Schlagrichtung 11 an einen Anschlag 18. Die Arbeitsstellung des Bohrmeißels 4 und des Zwischenschlägers 17 ist hierdurch vor dem Schlag definiert. Der Schläger 14 trifft somit in einer definierten Position (nachfolgend Schlagstellung, Fig. 1) längs der Arbeitsachse 10 auf den Zwischenschläger 17. Der Schläger 14 bewegt sich während des Arbeitsbetriebs in Schlagrichtung 11 nur bis zu der Schlagstellung. Entgegen der Schlagrichtung 11 ist die Bewegung des Schlägers 14 durch die Luftfeder und den Erreger 13 begrenzt.When dismantling a wall or a substrate, ie in working mode, press the user or the weight of the hammer drill 1 the drill bit 4 and the intermediate beater 17 against the direction of impact 11 to a stop 18. The working position of the drill bit 4 and the intermediate beater 17 is thus before Beat defined. The bat 14 thus hits in a defined position (hereinafter impact position, Fig. 1 ) along the working axis 10 on the intermediate racket 17. The racket 14 moves during working in the direction of impact 11 only to the impact position. Contrary to the direction of impact 11 , the movement of the racket 14 is limited by the air spring and the exciter 13 .

Der Anschlag 18 ist beispielsweise durch einen ringförmigen Prellbock 19 gebildet, der zwischen dem Schläger 14 und dem Zwischenschläger 17 angeordnet ist. Der Prellbock 19, insbesondere der Hohlraum, ist vorzugsweise rotationssymmetrisch und koaxial zu der Arbeitsachse 10 ausgebildet. Der koaxial zu der Arbeitsachse 10 geführte Zwischenschläger 17 kann sich entgegen der Schlagrichtung 11 an dem Prellbock 19 für die Schlagstellung abstützen. Das rückwärtige Ende des Zwischenschlägers 17 mit der Schlagfläche 20 tritt dabei vorzugsweise in den Hohlraum des Prellbocks 19, beispielsweise gelangt die Schlagfläche 20 wenigstens bis zu der in Schlagrichtung 11 vorderen Seite des Prellbocks 19. Der Prellbock 19 beinhaltet vorzugsweise einen axial beweglichen Metallring 21, welcher entgegen der Schlagrichtung 11 an einem elastischen Gummiring 22 zum Dämpfen des Rückprall des Zwischenschlägers 17 anliegt.The stop 18 is formed, for example, by an annular buffer 19 , which is arranged between the racket 14 and the intermediate racket 17 . The buffer 19, in particular the cavity, is preferably rotationally symmetrical and coaxial with the working axis 10 . The coaxial with the working axis 10 guided intermediate beater 17 can be supported against the direction of impact 11 on the buffer 19 for the impact position. The rear end of the intermediate beater 17 with the impact surface 20 preferably enters the cavity of the buffer 19, for example, the impact surface 20 reaches at least up to the direction of impact 11 front side of the buffer 19. The buffer 19 preferably includes an axially movable metal ring 21, which against the direction of impact 11 rests against an elastic rubber ring 22 for damping the rebound of the intermediate beater 17 .

Der Anwender kann den Arbeitsbetrieb beenden, indem er/sie das Werkzeug von der Wand oder dem Untergrund abhebt. Das Schlagwerk 6 soll automatisch abschalten, da Schläge nun nicht mehr auf den Bohrmeißel 4 in die Wand eingeleitet sondern in der Werkzeugaufnahme 2 aufgefangen werden müssen. Der Schläger 14 wird durch Belüften der pneumatischen Kammer 16 von dem Erreger 13 entkoppelt. Der Motor 5 kann sich somit weiterdrehen, ohne dass Schläge erzeugt werden. Der Bohrhammer 1 geht automatisch in einen Leerlaufbetrieb über. Der Schläger 14 kann bei dem abgehobenen Werkzeug 4 in Schlagrichtung 11 über die Schlagstellung hinausgleiten, die nun einnehmbaren Stellung (z.B. Fig. 3) werden zusammenfassend als Leerlaufstellung bezeichnet. Das Belüften der pneumatischen Kammer 16 ist an das Einnehmen der Leerlaufstellung gekoppelt, daher soll der Schläger 14 bei abgehobenen Werkzeug 4 möglichst in der Leerlaufstellung verweilen.The user can stop working by lifting the tool off the wall or the ground. The percussion 6 should switch off automatically, as now no longer blows on the drill bit 4 introduced into the wall but must be collected in the tool holder 2 . The bat 14 is decoupled from the exciter 13 by aerating the pneumatic chamber 16 . The motor 5 can thus continue to rotate without shocks are generated. The hammer drill 1 automatically goes into an idling operation. The bat 14 can slide in the off-hook tool 4 in the direction of impact 11 on the impact position, the now ingestable position (eg Fig. 3 ) are referred to collectively as idle position. The venting of the pneumatic chamber 16 is coupled to the assumption of the neutral position, therefore, the bat 14 should stay with lifted tool 4 as possible in the idle position.

Der beispielhafte Schläger 14 besteht aus einem Kolben 23 und einem Stößel 24. Der Kolben 23 schließt mit einer Stirnfläche 25 die pneumatische Kammer 16 in Schlagrichtung 11 druckdicht ab. Im Arbeitsbetrieb ist der Schläger 14 durch ein Führungsrohr 26 koaxial zu der Arbeitsachse 10 zwangsgeführt. Die Führung erfolgt durch eine Mantelfläche 27 des Kolbens 23, welche bündig an einer zylindrischen, inneren Führungsfläche 28 des Führungsrohrs 26 anliegt. Die Achse 29 des Kolbens 23, welche die Achse des Schlägers 14 vorgibt, liegt auf der Arbeitsachse 10. Ein Durchmesser 30 des Kolbens 23 ist bis auf ein geringes Spiel für die Gleitbewegung gleich dem Innendurchmesser der Führungsfläche 28. Das Spiel ist typischerweise geringer als 0,1 mm. Einem Verkippen des Schlägers 14 gegenüber der Führungsfläche 28 wird durch das Verhältnis von der geführten Länge 31 (Abmessung längs der Arbeitsachse 10) der Mantelfläche 27 zu Durchmesser 30 des Kolbens 23 entgegengewirkt. Die geführte Länge 31 oder Führungslänge ist vorzugsweise wenigstens ein Viertel, z.B. wenigstes die Hälfte des Durchmessers 30. Die Mantelfläche 27 kann längs der Arbeitsachse 10 durch Nuten 32 oder andere Strukturen unterbrochen sein, wie bei dem dargestellten Schläger 14. Wesentlich für die Führungslänge 31 sind die längs der Arbeitsachse 10 am weitesten voneinander entfernten Flächenabschnitte, die auf dem sich an den Schläger 14 anschmiegenden Zylinder, d.h. der Führungsfläche 28, liegen.The exemplary racket 14 consists of a piston 23 and a plunger 24. The piston 23 terminates with an end face 25, the pneumatic chamber 16 in the direction of impact 11 from pressure-tight. In operation, the racket 14 is forcibly guided by a guide tube 26 coaxial with the working axis 10 . The guide is made by a lateral surface 27 of the piston 23, which bears flush against a cylindrical, inner guide surface 28 of the guide tube 26 . The axis 29 of the piston 23, which defines the axis of the racket 14 , is located on the working axis 10. A diameter 30 of the piston 23 is equal to the inner diameter of the guide surface 28 except for a slight play for the sliding movement. The clearance is typically less than zero ,1 mm. A tilting of the racket 14 relative to the guide surface 28 is counteracted by the ratio of the guided length 31 (dimension along the working axis 10 ) of the lateral surface 27 to diameter 30 of the piston 23 . The guided length 31 or guide length is preferably at least a quarter, eg at least half of the diameter 30. The lateral surface 27 may be interrupted along the working axis 10 by grooves 32 or other structures, as in the illustrated racket 14. Essentially for the guide length 31 are along the working axis 10 furthest away from each other surface portions which lie on the snugly against the racket cylinder 14 , ie the guide surface 28 .

Die Schlagfläche 33 des Schlägers 14 ist an den Durchmesser des Werkzeugs 4 angepasst und typischerweise kleiner als der Durchmesser 30 des Schlägers 14 und seiner die Luftfeder abschließenden Stirnfläche 25. Eine ringförmige Schulter 34 bildet einen Übergang des Kolbens 23 auf den Stößel 24. Der Stößel 24 ist ein im Wesentlichen zylindrischer Grundkörper, welcher koaxial zu der Achse 29 des Kolbens 23 ist. Der Grundkörper bildet den Großteil der Radialfläche 35 des Stößels 24. Ein oder mehrere Ringnuten können in den Grundkörper eingebracht sein. Die Stirnfläche des Stößels 24 bildet die Schlagfläche 33, welche senkrecht auf der Achse 29 liegt. Die Schlagfläche 33 ist vorzugsweise rotationssymmetrisch und koaxial zu der Achse 29. Beim Schlag, d.h. in Schlagstellung, liegt die Schlagfläche 33 zentrisch auf der Arbeitsachse 10. Der Schlag kann mit minimalen Verlusten und mit minimalen Quer- und Radialkräften in den Zwischenschläger 17 eingeleitet werden. Der Zwischenschläger 17 hat vorzugsweise ebenfalls eine zu der Arbeitsachse 10 koaxiale und senkrechte Schlagfläche 20. The striking surface 33 of the racket 14 is adapted to the diameter of the tool 4 and typically smaller than the diameter 30 of the racket 14 and its end closing the air spring 25. An annular shoulder 34 forms a transition of the piston 23 on the plunger 24. The plunger 24th is a substantially cylindrical Main body, which is coaxial with the axis 29 of the piston 23 . The main body forms the majority of the radial surface 35 of the plunger 24. One or more annular grooves can be introduced into the base body. The end face of the plunger 24 forms the striking surface 33, which is perpendicular to the axis 29 . The impact surface 33 is preferably rotationally symmetrical and coaxial with the axis 29. When impact, ie in impact position, the impact surface 33 is located centrally on the working axis 10. The impact can be introduced into the intermediate beater 17 with minimal losses and with minimal transverse and radial forces. The intermediate beater 17 preferably also has a co-axial and vertical striking surface 20 to the working axis 10 .

Die Radialfläche 35 des Stößels 24 ist asymmetrisch zu der Arbeitsachse 10 ausgebildet. Bei dem in dem Querschnitt in Fig. 3 beispielhaft und überzeichnet dargestellten Stößel 24 steht in einer einzigen Winkelrichtung radial ein Zahn 36 vor. Mangels eines weiteren Zahns bei 180 Grad, zwei weiteren Zähnen bei 120 Grad und 240 Grad oder einen größeren unter äquidistanten Winkeln angeordneten Zähnen fehlt der Radialfläche 35 eine Drehsymmetrie. Die auf den Zwischenschläger 17 aufschlagende Schlagfläche 33 ist dennoch rotationssymmetrisch oder zumindest drehsymmetrisch. Beispielsweise ist die Stirnfläche des Stößels 24 etwas größer als die Schlagfläche 20 des Zwischenschlägers 17, wodurch der Zahn 36 keinen Einfluss auf die Schlagfläche 33 nimmt.The radial surface 35 of the plunger 24 is formed asymmetrically to the working axis 10 . When in the cross section in Fig. 3 exemplified and drawn plunger 24 is radially in front of a tooth 36 in a single angular direction. In the absence of another tooth at 180 degrees, two further teeth at 120 degrees and 240 degrees or a larger tooth arranged at equidistant angles, the radial surface 35 lacks rotational symmetry. The impact surface 33 striking the intermediate beater 17 is nevertheless rotationally symmetrical or at least rotationally symmetrical. For example, the end face of the plunger 24 is slightly larger than the striking surface 20 of the intermediate beater 17, whereby the tooth 36 has no influence on the striking surface 33 .

Die Höhe 37, gemessen zu der Achse 29 des Schlägers 14, des Zahns 36 kann bis zwischen 5 % und 20 % größer als der Außenradius 38 des Stößels 24 sein. Der Außenradius 38 ist die radiale Abmessung des im Wesentlichen zylindrischen Grundkörpers, z. B. der Abstand der Radialfläche 35 zu der Achse 29 abseits des Zahns 36. The height 37, measured to the axis 29 of the racket 14, of the tooth 36 may be up to between 5% and 20% greater than the outer radius 38 of the ram 24 . The outer radius 38 is the radial dimension of the substantially cylindrical base body, for. B. the distance of the radial surface 35 to the axis 29 away from the tooth 36th

Der Stößel 24 kann mit mehreren Zähnen versehen sein, ohne dass diese dem Stößel 24 eine Drehsymmetrie verleihen. Beispielsweise ist über einen Winkelbereich von wenigstens 180 Grad um die Arbeitsachse 10 kein Zahn vorgesehen. Ein Querschnitt senkrecht zu der Achse 29 durch den Stößel 39 zeigt eine Fläche, deren Mittelpunkt oder Schwerpunkt außerhalb der Achse 29 liegt.The plunger 24 may be provided with a plurality of teeth, without giving the plunger 24 a rotational symmetry. For example, no tooth is provided over an angular range of at least 180 degrees about the working axis 10 . A cross section perpendicular to the axis 29 through the plunger 39 shows an area whose center or center of gravity lies outside the axis 29 .

Der Leerlaufbetrieb wird durch radiale Belüftungsöffnungen 40 erreicht, welche nur geöffnet sind, wenn der Schläger 14 in Schlagrichtung 11 über die Schlagstellung in die Leerlaufstellung hinausgleitet (Fig. 4). Bei der beispielhaft dargestellten Ausführungsform werden die Belüftungsöffnungen 40 durch die die pneumatische Kammer 16 abschließende Stirnfläche 25 des Schlägers 14 gesperrt bzw. geöffnet. Die Stirnfläche 25 liegt knapp vor den Belüftungsöffnungen 40, wenn der Schläger 14 in der Schlagstellung ist, und die Stirnfläche 25 liegt in Schlagrichtung 11 hinter den Belüftungsöffnungen 40, wenn der Schläger 14 in der Leerlaufstellung ist. Über die Belüftungsöffnungen 40 kann die von dem Erreger 13 in der pneumatischen Kammer 16 bewegte Luft zu wenigstens großem Teil ein- und ausströmen. Der Erreger 13 kann den Schläger 14 nicht mehr ansaugen, wodurch dieser in einer Stellung nach der Schlagstellung liegen bleibt.The idling operation is achieved by radial ventilation openings 40 which are only opened when the racket 14 slides in the direction of impact 11 beyond the impact position into the idling position ( Fig. 4 ). In the embodiment shown by way of example, the ventilation openings 40 are blocked or opened by the pneumatic chamber 16 final end face 25 of the racket 14 . The end face 25 is just in front of the ventilation openings 40 when the racket 14 is in the impact position, and the Face 25 is located in the direction of impact 11 behind the ventilation openings 40 when the racket 14 is in the neutral position. Via the ventilation openings 40 , the air moved by the exciter 13 in the pneumatic chamber 16 can flow in and out to at least a large extent. The exciter 13 can no longer suck the bat 14 , whereby it remains in a position after the impact position.

Die strenge Zwangsführung des Schlägers 14 durch das Führungsrohr 26 ist auf den Arbeitsbetrieb begrenzt. Die Führungsfläche 28 endet im wesentlichen jenseits der Schlagstellung. Ein Rand 41 der Führungsfläche 28 ist etwa an der axialen Position des Rands der Mantelfläche 27 für den in der Schlagstellung befindlichen Schläger 14. Der Kolben 23 und dessen Mantelfläche 27 stehen in Schlagrichtung 11 über die Führungsfläche 28 hinaus, wenn der Schläger 14 die Schlagstellung überfährt und sich in der Leerlaufstellung befindet. Die Führungslänge 31 verkürzt sich dabei wenigstens um die Distanz 42, um die der Schläger 14 die Schlagstellung überfahren hat. Die an die Führungsfläche 28 in Schlagrichtung 11 angrenzende Innenfläche 43 hat einen größeren Durchmesser 44 als der Kolben 23. Vorzugsweise erhöht sich der Durchmesser um wenigstens 0,5 mm und vorzugsweise um höchstens 5 mm. Der überstehende Teil der Mantelfläche 27 ist daher nicht oder mit deutlich größerem Spiel geführt. Der Schläger 14 kann gegenüber der Arbeitsachse 10 verkippen.The strict forced guidance of the racket 14 by the guide tube 26 is limited to the working operation. The guide surface 28 ends substantially beyond the impact position. An edge 41 of the guide surface 28 is approximately at the axial position of the edge of the lateral surface 27 for the bat 14 in the impact position . The piston 23 and its lateral surface 27 are beyond the guide surface 28 in the direction of impact 11 when the bat 14 passes over the impact position and is in the neutral position. The guide length 31 is thereby shortened at least by the distance 42, by which the racket 14 has overtaken the impact position. The inner surface 43 adjoining the guide surface 28 in the direction of impact 11 has a larger diameter 44 than the piston 23. Preferably, the diameter increases by at least 0.5 mm and preferably by at most 5 mm. The projecting part of the lateral surface 27 is therefore not performed or with much greater play. The racket 14 can tilt with respect to the working axis 10 .

Der Schläger 14 kann vorzugsweise wenigstens soweit in Schlagrichtung 11 über die Schlagstellung hinausrücken, dass die Mantelfläche 27 mit weniger als der Hälfte ihrer Länge 31 an der Führungsfläche 28 anliegt. Beispielsweise kann sich der Schläger 14 um wenigstens die Hälfte der Führungslänge 31, d.h. der Länge 31 der Mantelfläche 27, in Schlagrichtung 11 über die Schlagstellung hinausbewegen. Bei dem beispielhaft dargestellten Kolben 23 ist bereits eine geringe Distanz 42 ausreichend. Die etwa in der Mitte der Mantelfläche 27 angeordnete Nut 32 unterteilt die Mantelfläche 27 in einen vorderen Abschnitt und einen hinteren Abschnitt 45. Der Kolben 23 muss nur um eine Distanz 42 gleich der Länge des hinteren Abschnitts 45 versetzt werden, um die Führung wie gewünscht zu verringern.The racket 14 may preferably extend at least as far in the direction of impact 11 over the impact position, that the lateral surface 27 rests against the guide surface 28 with less than half its length 31 . For example, the racquet 14 can be at least half the length of guide 31, that is, the length 31 of the casing 27, also move in the direction of impact 11 on the impact position. In the exemplified piston 23 is already a small distance 42 is sufficient. The groove 32 arranged approximately in the middle of the lateral surface 27 subdivides the lateral surface 27 into a front section and a rear section 45. The piston 23 need only be displaced by a distance 42 equal to the length of the rear section 45 in order to guide it as desired reduce.

Der Schläger 14 wird in Schlagrichtung 11 von dem Prellbock 19 gestoppt. Die ringförmige Schulter 34 des Schlägers 14 stützt sich an dem Prellbock 19 ab. Der Stößel 24 taucht in den Hohlraum ein und schiebt dabei gegebenenfalls den Zwischenschläger 17 aus dem Hohlraum heraus. Der Schläger 14 kann aufgrund des Prellbocks 19 nicht vollständig aus Führungsfläche 28 austreten, vorzugsweise bleibt mindestens ein Zehntel der Länge 31 der Mantelfläche 27 an der Führungsfläche 28 anliegend. Der Schläger 14 kann durch den Zwischenschläger 17 sicher in die Schlagstellung zurück gedrückt werden.The racket 14 is stopped in the direction of impact 11 by the buffer 19 . The annular shoulder 34 of the racket 14 is supported on the buffer 19 from. The plunger 24 dips into the cavity and pushes if necessary the intermediate beater 17 out of the cavity. The racket 14 can not completely escape from the guide surface 28 due to the buffer 19 , preferably remains at least one-tenth of the length 31 of the Jacket surface 27 adjacent to the guide surface 28 . The racket 14 can be safely pushed back by the intermediate racket 17 in the impact position.

Der Stößel 24 ist während des Arbeitsbetriebs ungeführt. Die koaxiale Ausrichtung des Schlägers 14 erfolgt nur durch die Führung des Kolbens 23 an der Führungsfläche 28 des Führungsrohr 26. Bei der Leerschlagstellung, zumindest beim Anliegen des Schlägers 14 am Prellbock 19, ist auch der Stößel 24 geführt. Der Stößel 24 wird, im Gegensatz zu dem Kolben 23, auf einer zu der Arbeitsachse 10 geneigten Bahn geführt. Die schräge Führung erfolgt durch des Stößels 24 Radialfläche 35, welche an der Innenfläche 46 des ringförmigen Prellbocks 19 gleitet. Die beispielsweise zylindrische Innenfläche 46 ist koaxial zu der Arbeitsachse 10. Wenigstens der asymmetrisch in radialer Richtung vorspringende Abschnitt, z.B. der Zahn 36, ist durch die Innenfläche 46 geführt. Der Zahn 36 hat eine Höhe 37, welche in radialer Richtung von der Achse 29 des Schlägers 14 gemessen wird. Die Höhe 37 ist etwas größer als ein Innenradius 47 der Innenfläche 46. Der Stößel 24 wird entsprechend der Differenz der Höhe 37 zu dem Innenradius 47 senkrecht zu der Achse 29 versetzt. Der noch teilweise in dem Führungsrohr 26 liegende Schläger 14 kippt gegenüber der Arbeitsachse 10. The plunger 24 is unguided during the working operation. The coaxial alignment of the racket 14 is carried out only by the leadership of the piston 23 on the guide surface 28 of the guide tube 26. In the blank strike position, at least when the bat 14 on the buffer 19, the plunger 24 is guided. The plunger 24 is, in contrast to the piston 23, guided on a tilted to the working axis 10 path. The oblique guide is made by the plunger 24 radial surface 35, which slides on the inner surface 46 of the annular bumper 19 . The cylindrical inner surface 46 , for example, is coaxial with the working axis 10. At least the portion that projects asymmetrically in the radial direction, for example the tooth 36, is guided through the inner surface 46 . The tooth 36 has a height 37 which is measured in the radial direction from the axis 29 of the racket 14 . The height 37 is slightly larger than an inner radius 47 of the inner surface 46. The plunger 24 is offset according to the difference of the height 37 to the inner radius 47 perpendicular to the axis 29 . The bat 14 , which is still partly located in the guide tube 26 , tilts relative to the working axis 10.

Der Stößel 24 kann an einer steifen, unnachgiebigen Innenfläche 46 des Prellbocks 19 bei der Leerschlagstellung geführt sein. Die Innenfläche 46 kann beispielsweise durch eine Stahlring 48 des Prellbocks 19 gebildet sein. Der Innenradius 47 ist hierbei wenigstens so groß, wie das Mittel der Höhe 37 des Zahns 36 und des Außenradius 38. Bei der beispielhaft dargestellten Ausführungsform bildet der elastische Gummiring 21 wenigstens einen Teil der oder die gesamte Innenfläche 46. Der Innenradius 47 kann geringer sein als das Mittel der Höhe 37 des Zahns 36 und des Außenradius 38 des Stößels 24. Der Gummiring wird durch den Zahn 36 in radialer Richtung stärker gequetscht als in die diametral gegenüberliegende Winkelrichtung (vgl. Fig. 6). Hierdurch ergibt sich eine resultierende Kraft, welche den Stößel 24 in die diametral gegenüberliegende Winkelrichtung auslenkt und den Schläger 14 gegenüber der Arbeitsachse 10 kippt.The plunger 24 may be guided on a stiff, unyielding inner surface 46 of the bumper 19 at the Leerschlagstellung. The inner surface 46 may be formed, for example, by a steel ring 48 of the buffer 19 . In this case, the inner radius 47 is at least as great as the mean of the height 37 of the tooth 36 and the outer radius 38. In the embodiment illustrated by way of example, the elastic rubber ring 21 forms at least part or all of the inner surface 46. The inner radius 47 can be less than the mean of the height 37 of the tooth 36 and the outer radius 38 of the plunger 24. The rubber ring is more strongly squeezed by the tooth 36 in the radial direction than in the diametrically opposite angular direction (see. Fig. 6 ). This results in a resultant force, which deflects the plunger 24 in the diametrically opposite angular direction and tilts the bat 14 relative to the working axis 10 .

Eine weitere Ausgestaltung des Schlagwerks 6 hat einen Schläger 14 gemäß der Fig. 7. Der Kolben 23 definiert die Achse 29 des Schlägers 14 und sorgt für dessen Zwangsführung in dem Führungsrohr 26 koaxial zu der Arbeitsachse 10. Der Stößel 49 ist ein im Wesentlichen zylindrischer Körper, dessen Längsachse 50 gegenüber der Achse 29 des Schlägers 14 gekippt ist, um eine Asymmetrie seiner Radialfläche 51 gegenüber der Arbeitsachse 10 zu bewirken. Der Prellbock 19 ist koaxial und symmetrisch zu der Arbeitsachse 10 ausgebildet. Der Innenradius 47 des Prellbocks 19 ist derart gewählt, dass die Radialfläche 51 des Stößels 24 an der Innenfläche 46 anliegt. Ein Außenradius 52 des Stößels 24 ist beispielsweise gleich oder etwas größer als der Innenradius 47. Das Verkippen ergibt sich durch die gekippte Achse Längsachse 50 des Stößels 49. Another embodiment of the impact mechanism 6 has a racket 14 according to the Fig. 7 , The piston 23 defines the axis 29 of the racket 14 and provides for its positive guidance in the guide tube 26 coaxial with the working axis 10. The plunger 49 is a substantially cylindrical body whose longitudinal axis 50 is tilted relative to the axis 29 of the racket 14 to a Asymmetry of its radial surface 51 relative to the working axis 10 to effect. The buffer 19 is formed coaxially and symmetrically to the working axis 10 . The inner radius 47 of the buffer 19 is selected such that the radial surface 51 of the plunger 24 bears against the inner surface 46 . An outer radius 52 of the plunger 24 is for example, equal to or slightly larger than the inner radius 47. The tilting results from the tilted axis longitudinal axis 50 of the plunger 49th

Der die Schlagfläche 33 bildende Teil der Stirnfläche 25 ist vorzugsweise senkrecht und koaxial zu der Achse 29 des Schlägers 14 ausgebildet. Der Schlag des Schlägers 14 erfolgt somit zentral auf der Arbeitsachse 10. Beispielsweise ist die Stirnfläche elliptisch und der kleinere Radius ist gleich dem Radius der kreisförmigen Schlagfläche 33. The impact surface 33 forming part of the end face 25 is preferably formed perpendicular and coaxial with the axis 29 of the racket 14 . The impact of the bat 14 thus takes place centrally on the working axis 10. For example, the end face is elliptical and the smaller radius is equal to the radius of the circular striking surface 33rd

Eine weitere Ausgestaltung des Schlagwerks 6 sieht vor, den Schläger 14 mit einer rotationssymmetrischen Radialfläche 53 des Stößels 39 zu versehen (Fig. 8). In diesem Fall ist die Innenfläche 54 des Prellbocks 19 asymmetrisch zu der Arbeitsachse 10. Beispielsweise hat der Gummiring 55 an einer Stelle einen größeren Schnurdurchmesser 56. A further embodiment of the striking mechanism 6 provides to provide the racket 14 with a rotationally symmetrical radial surface 53 of the plunger 39 ( Fig. 8 ). In this case, the inner surface 54 of the buffer 19 is asymmetrical to the working axis 10. For example, the rubber ring 55 has a larger cord diameter 56 at one point .
