  • Such implements in which the piston rod acts on the arm via a toggle lever, in particular tensioning arm or pivoting arm, of the working device, are usually referred to as a toggle lever tensioning device or toggle lever pivoting device.
  • the clamping arm In a work tool with clamping arm this is usually the task to clamp a workpiece or an object.
  • the clamping arm In the one end position of the displaceable piston, the clamping arm assumes its clamping position, while in the other end position of the piston, the clamping arm is in the open position.
  • the piston rod can be adjustable in length, so that different opening angle of the clamping arm can be displayed by means of the implement. In this case, the same position of the switching element in the clamping position of the clamping arm and a variable depending on the selected length of the piston rod position of this switching element or another switching element by means of the device queried by the means for detecting and querying one hand.

This is inserted in total into a recess between two housing parts of a head housing and screwed from the outside to the head housing.
  • This design of the device requires a complex assembly, because the device is used in the longitudinal extension of the implement and previously Is cylinder housing of the implement to dismantle, because the device is to be inserted from the region of the cylinder housing in the head housing.
  • the one-piece construction of the device is also insufficient or not suitable for different series of implements.
  • the device for detecting and interrogating at least one position of the switching element is designed in two parts.
  • the device has a disposed within the head housing mechanical component, which is displaceable under the action of the piston rod-side switching element. In accordance with the displacement position of the component, this cooperates with optical sensors of a further part of the device for detecting and interrogating, which is arranged outside the head housing and screwed thereto.
  • this working device has been sold extensively by the Applicant and has several electrical displays and an electrical connection for an electrical device for querying the at least one position of the switching element.
  • at least one or both end positions of the piston rod can be detected and displayed directly on the implement and / or the external device.
  • Object of the present invention is to develop a working device of the type mentioned so that in the area of the device for detecting and querying a significant simplification in terms of design and installation is recorded and beyond with respect to different series an effective standardization is possible.
  • the means for detecting and interrogating a first component for detecting the at least one position of the switching element and a second separate component for interrogating the at least a position of the switching element wherein the first component is mounted in the two housing parts between them, and the first component on a side facing an interior of the head housing detecting means for detecting the at least one position of the switching element and the first component on an exterior of the Head housing side facing first electrical contact means which cooperate with the detection means, wherein the second component is arranged in the region of the exterior of the head housing side facing and connected to the head housing, and the second component second electrical contact means which contact the first contact means, and having output means cooperating with the second contact means, the output means outputting the detected by means of the detection means at least one position of the switching element.
  • this working device thus takes place a functional separation of the means for detecting and interrogating at least one position of the switching element in the two components, namely first component and second component.
  • the first component is used to detect at least one position of the switching element
  • the second component is used to interrogate at least one position of the switching element.
  • the two components interact exclusively via the contact means associated therewith, thus the first electrical contact means and the second electrical contact means. Because of this functional separation of the means for detecting and interrogating at least one position of the switching element, a single second component can be used for the entire production range of different pneumatically operable implements. This allows a significant reduction of stock and the reduction of spare parts. Concerning this second component, only the same spare part is to be stocked.
  • the second component Since the second component is positioned in the region of the outside of the head housing, it can be easily attached to the head housing or disassembled with respect to the head housing.
  • the storage of the first component is particularly simple and safe, because it is stored in the two housing parts between them.
  • a particularly simple design is given in this regard, when the first component is inserted into the one housing part, in particular inserted and then the two housing parts are joined together, wherein the first component is inserted into the other housing part, in particular plugged. If the two housing parts firmly connected to each other, in particular bolted together, no further fastening means for the first component for the purpose of their storage in the two housing parts are required.
  • the electrical contacting of the two components of the device for detecting and interrogating at least one position of the switching element is particularly advantageous when connecting the second component to the head housing already stored in the head housing first component. It is only necessary to bring the second component in its mounting position relative to the head housing. In this case, their second electrical contact means come directly into contact with the first electrical contact means of the first component. There are thus no special measures to provide for connecting the two contact means in this training.
  • the one contact means has a resilient contact spring and the other contact means has a contact plate, wherein the contact spring contacts the contact plate.
  • the contact plate can thus be rigid, while the contact spring is yielding. Due to the resilience of the contact spring a system of contact means under bias and thus a permanently secure contact is guaranteed.
  • the resilient contact spring is assigned in particular to the second component.
  • this is structurally more expensive to provide an arrangement in which the compliant contact spring of the first component is associated, thus representing the first electrical contact means.
  • the detection means of the first component are preferably designed as optical sensors.
  • it is one or more sensor pairs, wherein the respective sensor pair is formed by an optical transmitter and an optical receiver.
  • the detection means are in particular associated with the first contact means in that region of this contact means in which the switching element connected to the piston rod is in an open position of the arm, in particular clamping arm or swivel arm. It may well be provided further detection means which detect other positions of the arm, for example, a position of the arm, which corresponds to the other end position, in particular a closed position of the clamping arm.
  • the second component has in particular a housing.
  • This housing is in particular connected to two housing parts of the head housing, in particular screwed to this.
  • the housing of the second component preferably has the second contact means on a side facing the head housing, and the dispensing means are arranged on one or more other sides.
  • the output means comprise one or more electrical displays or an electrical connection for an external device.
  • the electrical displays are, in particular, lamps, wherein in particular a lamp lights up when the switching element is in a position between a sensor pair, which is arranged at a position that the position of the switching element in the open end position of the arm, in particular Clamping arm, corresponds.
  • the clamping arm is in a different position, thus the switching element in a deviating position, this sensor pair determines no presence of the switching element and then it lights up the other light, indicating that the arm is not in the open position or the switching element itself not in the position corresponding to this opening position.
  • Another light can indicate, for example, whether the electrical device for detecting and interrogating at least one position of the switching element is energized or de-energized.
  • the likewise provided electrical connection for an external device makes it possible not to query this information directly to the second component, but to supply via a line connected to the electrical connection for the purpose of query an external electrical device.
  • the first component is in particular designed such that it has a strip-shaped main body.
  • a strip-shaped main body Such a can be particularly easily stored in the two housing halves between them and is also functionally optimally designed under the aspect of the linear travel path of the switching element.
  • the base body is designed such that it receives on one side of the detection means and on one side facing away from the first contact means.
  • This design is functionally particularly advantageous because the detection means are assigned directly to the path of movement of the switching element and the first contact means, from the outside of the head housing particularly well accessible, is assigned directly to the second contact means.
  • the base body has projections or recesses on opposite sides, which engage in recesses or projections of the housing parts that are designed to be complementary. Due to this design, a particularly simple arrangement and connection of the base body and thus the first component in the head housing can be created by a positive connection arrangement between the base body and the housing parts is accomplished.
  • the main body on opposite sides of projections in particular frustoconical projections which are used in interconnected housing parts in recesses, in particular frusto-conical recesses of the housing parts, in particular are used without play. Consequently, no independent fastening means for securing the base body and thus the first component on the head housing are required.
  • the base body is inserted into the one housing part of the head housing and then plugged the other housing part to the base body, wherein the two housing parts then lie against each other and it is only necessary to screw the two housing parts together.
  • the head housing has a passage in the separation region of the two housing parts, wherein the first contact means are arranged in the region of the passage. Accordingly, a particularly simple contacting of the first contact means with the second contact means is possible when the second component is applied to and connected to the first component.
