Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a striking tool according to the preamble of claim 1, and a method of manufacturing such a tool.
  • a typing tool is known from the document US 1 604 007 A .
  • the tool is for example a punch, a chisel, a pin punch, etc.
  • the field of the invention is that of hand tools allowing an operator to strike on a target element. Depending on the type of tool, this target element may be a floor surface, a wall, a burr, a seal, a pin, etc.
  • a typing tool typically includes a handle and an active part.
  • the operator holds the handle in his hand and positions the active part against the target element. Then the operator hits the rear end of the handle, for example with a hammer, so that the front end of the active part strikes the target element.
  • the handle and the active part are generally made of metal materials, especially steel alloys. These materials can be distinct to accommodate the different stresses experienced by the handle and the active part when using the tool.
  • a shock wave rises along the tool, from the active portion to the handle. This shock wave is propagated in the hand, wrist and arm of the operator, to the elbow.
  • the manipulation of a striking tool over a prolonged period of time can cause some fatigue, even serious injury, in the operator.
  • the handle of the tool may comprise a casing made of elastomeric material designed to dampen the impact.
  • the shock wave propagates to the contact interface between the active part and the handle, along the longitudinal axis of the tool, so that the envelope only partially protects the operator.
  • a striking tool comprising: an elongate handle in a longitudinal direction and adapted to hold the tool, an active part intended to strike a target element, an intermediate piece for assembling the handle and the active part, and means shock absorber, in the form of a disc and a rubber ring housed between the handle and the intermediate piece.
  • the shock wave propagates from the active part to the intermediate piece, then to the handle being damped by the disc and the ring.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide an improved typing tool.
  • the subject of the invention is a striking tool as defined in claim 1.
  • the tool comprises: an elongated handle in a longitudinal direction and adapted to hold the tool, an active part assembled with the handle and intended to strike a target element, and shock absorption means interposed between the handle and the part active in the longitudinal direction of the tool.
  • the invention improves operator comfort of use, and reduce the risk of injury in the long term.
  • the shock wave propagating along the longitudinal direction of the tool is damped and absorbed by the absorption means. More specifically, the shock wave is damped and absorbed by the piece of elastomeric material, then dissipates in the fluid.
  • the known devices damp the shock wave without absorbing and then dissipating it, so that it is partly transmitted to the operator.
  • the piece of polymer material is a spherical ball.
  • a piece is very easy to manufacture and then to integrate with the tool. Its positioning is correct regardless of its orientation, which is not the case of a record for example.
  • the fluid is air.
  • the fluid is oil

  • this space has a substantially stable volume and shock absorption means remain substantially immobile, unlike some existing tools, equipped with springs or other compression parts.
  • the reception space of the shock absorbing means comprises a fluid receiving orifice, and a chamber receiving the piece of polymer material which partially penetrates into the orifice.
  • the handle and the active part are both monoblocs.
  • the tool consists solely of three components: the one-piece handle, the one-piece active part, and the shock absorption means.
  • the handle having a rear end intended to be struck by an operator, the active part having a front end intended to exert an impact, then the shock absorption means are closer to the front end than to from the back end.
  • the active part is housed in the handle.
  • the handle is housed in the active part.
  • the invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a tool as mentioned above.

  • the bore 16 has a diameter smaller than the bore 15, so as to receive the active part 20 by press fit.
  • the shoulder 18 faces the mouth 14.
  • the cavity 13 is in communication with a cylindrical orifice 19 provided with a frustoconical bottom 19a.
  • the orifice 19 and its bottom 19a are formed during the drilling of a first bore for making the cavity 13 in the handle 10.
  • the shoulder 18 separates the cavity 13 and the orifice 19.
  • the active part 20 is made of metal, preferably steel. In practice, the material and the shape of the active part 20 are chosen according to the type of tool 1 and standards. In the embodiment of Figures 1 to 4 the active part 20 is a cylindrical needle. The active part 20 is elongated between a rear end 21 and a front end 22.

  • the end 21 has a bearing surface 23, radial flat circular shape.
  • the end 21 also comprises a frustoconical portion 25 facilitating the introduction of the active portion 20 into the cavity 13.
  • the end 22 is provided to exert an impact on the target element 2, when the operator exerts an impact on the end 11 of the handle 10.
  • the end 22 has a striking surface 24 radial, flat circular shape.
  • the absorption means 30 comprise a ball 31 made of a polymeric material, especially an elastomer or thermoplastic material, for example polychloroprene (CR), polypropylene (PP) or polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
  • the ball 31 has a spherical shape.
  • the absorption means 30 may comprise a piece of polymer material of any suitable shape, for example cylindrical or parallelepipedal.

  • the ball 31 is housed in a chamber 39 delimited at the bottom of the cavity 13, between the bore 16, the shoulder 18 and the surface 23. When the active portion 20 is fitted into the cavity 13, the ball 31 is compressed against the shoulder 18 and partially penetrates into the orifice 19.
  • the absorption means 30 also comprise air 32, which is contained between the ball 31 and the handle 10, in the orifice 19.
  • the absorption means 30 are designed and arranged to absorb the shock wave propagating in the longitudinal direction of the tool 1, without the transmit to the operator. His working comfort is improved, and his risk of injury is reduced.
  • the manufacturing method of the tool 1 is detailed below.
  • the method comprises a step of manufacturing the handle 10, for example by forging or casting, then machining the external profile and the cavity 13.
  • the method comprises a step of manufacturing the active part 20, for example by forging or casting, and then machining the external profile.
  • the method comprises a step of forming the receiving space 19 + 39 of the shock absorption means 30 before positioning them in the tool 1.
