Description

  The present invention relates to a hand-held tool, and more particularly to a bidirectional wrench.

  When using common hand tools such as screwdrivers and torque wrenches, there is a limitation of the movement of the human hand in the direction of rotation, i.e. it is impossible to rotate the human hand continuously in one direction. Is possible. The operation of such a tool, in which the handle rotation axis is coaxial with the tool spindle, consists of repeating the following cycle, i.e. first in the desired direction of the handle (eg screwing or loosening). Rotating and secondly it consists of repeating the rotation of the hand in the opposite direction to reposition the tool for the next cycle.

In the second part of the cycle described above, the reverse rotation of the hand can be achieved by releasing the handle and re-gripping it, such as a ratchet surface that keeps the spindle stationary during the reverse rotation of the handle This can be achieved by a tool with unidirectional means, or by reinserting the tool bit after it has been pulled out of engagement with the screw.
In either case, however, the reverse rotation of the hand cannot result in effective advancement of the fastener and is therefore a wasteful movement.

  U.S. Pat. No. 5,931,062 comprises a shaft and two drive elements mounted on the shaft, each drive element being interposed between the drive element and the shaft. It has a directional clutch, which only rotates when the drive element of one of the two drive elements rotates in one direction of rotation and rotates in the opposite direction. A drive element that is oriented in the same direction on the shaft so as to idle on the shaft, and is arranged along the axis of the shaft and is selected from among the drive elements Rotating means that engages one of the drive elements, one drive element drags the shaft, and the other drive element idles on the shaft, Regardless of the direction of rotation of the moving element, it always rotates in only one direction, so that the two drive elements are connected to each other so that the bi-directional rotation of the rotating means (eg handle) can be converted into a one-way rotation of the shaft. Disclosed is a mechanical rectifier further comprising a reverse mechanism that is coupled and always rotated in the opposite direction.

  This mechanical rectifier can efficiently utilize the rotation of either direction of the rotating means, that is, the shaft rotates in the same direction regardless of whether the handle rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, Therefore, the efficiency of hand movement can be improved and the working time can be shortened.

  However, the conversion mechanism of the present invention can only rotate the shaft in one direction and cannot satisfy the requirement of rotating the shaft in two directions, such as tightening or loosening a fastener in a torque wrench application. The torque wrench provided with the conversion mechanism of the present invention is said to tighten (or loosen) the fastener regardless of whether the tightening or loosening operation of the fastener performed in a traditional wrench is performed. You can only get results. In a torque wrench with the conversion mechanism of the present invention, if one expects to perform tightening and loosening operations on the fasteners, a technical solution that can be considered is to provide an output at both ends of the torque wrench shaft. It may be just to perform the mounting and tightening operation on one end and the tightening operation on the other end. However, this design is cumbersome and it is inconvenient to select an appropriate output when using a torque wrench.

  Therefore, it is desirable to develop a bidirectional wrench that can conveniently switch the rotation direction of the shaft.

It is a side view of the block apparatus of FIG.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a bi-directional wrench according to one detailed embodiment of the present invention comprises a handle 20 and a working part 10, the handle 20 being ring-shaped via a longitudinal extension. It is connected to the working unit 10 that crosses the head 21 (see FIG. 3). The main shaft 100 is located inside the working unit 10 and the holding ring is located outside. One end of the main shaft is an output end 101 that extends past the working unit 10 and the head 21 of the handle 20. The output end 101 may be a component that is suitable for operating various fasteners, such as a clamping screw, by attaching different sleeves.

  The bidirectional wrench of the present invention is configured by combining a drive mechanism with a reverse rotation mechanism, and an input torque from the handle 20 is transmitted to the main shaft 100 of the working unit 10 via the drive mechanism, and an output torque from the output end 101 is reduced. The direction is a first direction or a second direction, where the first direction and the second direction are opposite directions. For example, when the input torque of the working unit 10 is a clockwise torque or a counterclockwise torque, the output torque of the output end 101 is a clockwise torque, or the input torque of the working unit 10 is a clockwise torque. Alternatively, when the torque is counterclockwise, the output torque of the output terminal 101 is a counterclockwise torque.

  The structure of the drive mechanism of the bidirectional wrench of the present invention is shown in FIG. 3 and includes a first ratchet surface 311, a capstan gear 312, a second ratchet surface 321, a follower gear 322, and a transmission seat 330. And idle gears 331 and 332. Here, the first ratchet surface 311 and the capstan gear 312 are connected to each other and are coaxial with each other. In this embodiment, the first ratchet surface 311 is formed on the inner periphery of the ring-shaped head 21 of the handle 20. The drive gear is driven by the head 21 to rotate when the handle 20 is rotated by being engaged with the head 21 of the handle 20, and in another embodiment, the first ratchet surface 311 is moved to the capstan. The second ratchet surface 321 can be disposed on the inner periphery of the follower gear 322. The surfaces of the first ratchet surface 311 and the second ratchet surface 321 are connected to the outer surface of the main shaft 100, the capstan gear 312 and the follower gear 322 are face gears, and the surfaces of the capstan gear 312 and the follower gear 322 are , Facing each other. The first ratchet 311, the second ratchet 321, the capstan gear 312, and the follower gear 322 are coaxial, and their central axes overlap the central axis of the main shaft 100.

  The transmission seat 330 and the holding ring 102 are fixed to each other. The idle gears 331 and 332 are attached to a transmission seat 330 perpendicular to the main shaft 100. The idle gears 3331 and 333 are incorporated between the capstan gear 312 and the follower gear 322, and their teeth engage with the teeth of the capstan gear 312 and the follower gear 322 to drive them, and the holding ring 102 is fixed. Alternatively, when the transmission seat 330 is fixed, the capstan gear 312 drives the follower gear 322 via the idle gears 331 and 331 to rotate it. In this embodiment, the idle gears 331 and 332 are angle gears.

  The structure of the reversing mechanism of the bidirectional wrench of the present invention is shown in FIG. 4 and includes a first column 221, a spring-biased first plunger 221, and a spring-biased second plunger 222. And a first pawl element 211, and a second pawl element 212. Here, the shaft column 220 is mounted in the main shaft 100, and then the first plunger 221 biased by the spring and the second plunger 222 biased by the spring are mounted on the shaft column 220, and the spring The first plunger 221 biased by and the second plunger 222 biased by the spring are perpendicular to the main shaft 110 along the direction of operation, preferably the first plunger 221 biased by the spring and The second plunger 222 biased by a spring has an elastic element such as a spring. The first pawl element 221 and the second pawl element 222 are mounted on the main shaft 100 across the counter shaft 210 as shown in FIG. 5, while the counter shaft 210 is parallel to the central axis of the main shaft 100. The pawl element 221 and the second pawl element 222 can rotate around the countershaft 210 without overlapping the central axis of the main shaft 100.

  The first pawl element 211 and the first pawl element 212 have a similar structure, i.e., a first fan-shaped pawl, a second fan-shaped pawl, and a fan-shaped space between them. Have. Taking the first pawl element 211 as an example, FIG. 6 shows a top view of the first pawl element 211 (in the direction toward the output end 101 along the main axis 100), which can be seen from FIG. As can be seen, the first pawl element 211 is composed of a first fan-shaped pawl 2111, a second fan-shaped pawl 2112, and a fan-shaped space between them. The fan-shaped surface of the first fan-shaped pawl 2111, the central portion of the fan-shaped space, and the fan-shaped surface of the second fan-shaped pawl 2112 constitute the first surface of the first pawl element 211.

  Further, the first pawl element 211 is a specially shaped surface, and in this embodiment has a second surface including a recess 2113 having a first side wall 2114 and a second side wall 2115. The first side wall 2114 and the second side wall 2115 extend along the main shaft 100. The first pawl element 211 has a hole 2101 that coincides with the countershaft 210, and the countershaft 210 mounts the first pawl element 211 on the main shaft across the hole 2101 (see FIG. 5). In this embodiment, the hole 2101 is disposed in the fan-shaped central portion of the first pawl element 211, and is preferably disposed at the center of gravity of the first pawl element 211. The structure of the second pawl element 212 is the same as that of the first pawl element 211, and further explanation is omitted. However, in this embodiment, the thickness is smaller than the thickness of the first pawl element 211, however. In other embodiments, the thickness may be equal to the thickness of the first pawl element 211 or greater than the thickness of the first pawl element 211.

  The first surfaces of the first pawl element 211 and the second pawl element 212 face the first ratchet surface 311 and the second ratchet surface 321, respectively. The teeth of the fan-shaped pawls (including the first fan-shaped pawl 2111 and the second fan-shaped pawl 2112) face the teeth of the first ratchet 311 and the fan-shaped pawls of the second pawl element 212 (first The teeth of the second ratchet surface 321 face the teeth of the second ratchet surface 321. The second surfaces of the first pawl element 211 and the second pawl element 212 face the surface of the shaft column 220. Specifically, the second surface of the first pawl element 211 is attached by a spring. Facing the spherical head of the biased first plunger 221, the second surface of the second pawl element 212 faces the spherical head of the second plunger 222 biased by a spring.

  When traversing the shaft 220 and the bi-directional wrench of the present invention is in the first mode of operation, the spherical head of the first plunger 221 biased by the spring is the second of the recess 2113 of the first pawl element 211. The spherical head of the second plunger 222, which is tied to one side wall 2114 and is spring-biased, is tied to the first side wall of the recess of the second pawl element 212, and the bidirectional wrench of the present invention is When in the mode of operation, the spherical head of the first plunger 221 biased by the spring is tied to the second side wall 2115 of the recess 2113 of the first pawl element 211 and the second biased by the spring. The spherical head of the plunger 222 is tied to the second side wall of the recess of the second pawl element 212.

  When the bidirectional wrench of the present invention is in the first mode of operation (see FIG. 7), the teeth of the first fan-shaped pawl 2111 of the first pawl element 211 are tied to the teeth of the first ratchet surface 311. Similarly, the first fan-shaped pawl teeth of the second pawl element 212 are associated with the teeth of the second ratchet surface 321. When the head 21 of the handle 20 drives and rotates the first ratchet surface 311, the movement direction of the first ratchet surface 311 beside the first sector pawl 2111 is changed from the first sector portion 2111 to the second sector 2111. In the direction toward the fan-shaped portion 2112, that is, when the first ratchet surface 311 rotates clockwise when viewed in FIG. 7, the spherical head of the first plunger 211 biased by the spring is the first The first ratchet surface 311 cannot drive and rotate the first pawl element 211, that is, the first fan-shaped pawl 2111, because it is connected to the first side wall 2114 of the recess 2113 of the pawl element 211. The teeth of the first ratchet surface 311 do not engage with the teeth of the first ratchet surface 311, but the moving direction of the first ratchet surface 311 beside the first fan-shaped pawl 2111 is the second sector portion 21. 2 to the first sector portion 2111, that is, when the first ratchet surface 311 rotates counterclockwise when viewed in FIG. 7, the spherical shape of the first plunger 211 biased by a spring Because the head is tied to the first side wall 2114 of the recess 2113 of the first pawl element 211, the first ratchet surface 311 can drive the first pawl element 211 to rotate, ie the first The teeth of the fan-shaped pawl 2111 can engage with the teeth of the first ratchet surface 311. Then, the rotation of the first pawl element 211 is transmitted to the counter shaft 210 through the main shaft 100, and therefore the main shaft 100 is driven to rotate.

  On the other hand, the movement direction of the second ratchet surface 321 beside the first sector pawl of the second pawl element 212 is the direction from the first sector portion of the second pawl element 212 to the second sector portion. That is, if the second ratchet surface 321 rotates clockwise, the spherical head of the second plunger 222 biased by the spring is connected to the first side wall of the recess of the second pawl element 212. Thus, the second ratchet surface 321 cannot drive and rotate the second pawl element 212, i.e., the first fan-shaped pawl tooth of the second pawl element 212 does not rotate on the second ratchet surface 312. The direction of movement of the second ratchet surface 321 beside the first fan-shaped pawl of the second pawl element 212 is not engaged with the teeth, but the second fan-shaped portion of the second pawl element 212 moves from the first fan-shaped portion. Direction to the part Yes, i.e., when the second ratchet surface 321 rotates counterclockwise, the spherical head of the second plunger 222 biased by the spring is tied to the first side wall of the recess of the second pawl element 212. Thus, the second ratchet surface 321 can drive and rotate the second pawl element 212, i.e., the first sector pawl teeth of the second ratchet surface 321 are teeth of the second ratchet surface 321. Can be engaged. Then, the rotation of the second pawl element 212 is transmitted to the counter shaft 210 through the main shaft 100, and therefore the main shaft 100 is driven to rotate.

  From the driving among the idle gears 331 and 332, the capstan gear 312, and the follower gear 322, the rotation direction of the second ratchet surface 321 is opposite to that of the first ratchet surface 311 when the holding ring is fixed. From here, when the bidirectional wrench of the present invention is in the first operation mode, when the input torque from the working unit 10 is a clockwise torque, the first ratchet surface 311 rotates clockwise, The second ratchet surface 321 rotates counterclockwise. At this time, the first pawl element 211 does not engage with the first ratchet surface 311, and the second pawl element 212 engages with the second ratchet surface 321. Therefore, when the second pawl element 212 drives the main shaft 100 to rotate counterclockwise, the output torque is counterclockwise and the input torque from the working unit 10 is counterclockwise. The first ratchet 311 rotates counterclockwise and the second ratchet surface 321 rotates clockwise. At this time, the first pawl element 211 is engaged with the first ratchet surface 311. The second pawl element 212 does not engage the second ratchet surface 321 and therefore the first pawl element 211 drives the spindle 100 to rotate counterclockwise and the output torque is counterclockwise torque. Can understand.

  When the bi-directional wrench of the present invention is in the second mode of operation, the teeth of the second fan-shaped pawl 2112 of the first pawl element 211 are tied to the teeth of the first ratchet surface 311 and, similarly, the second The second sector pawl tooth of the pawl element 212 is associated with the tooth of the second ratchet surface 321. When the head 21 of the handle 20 drives and rotates the first ratchet surface 311, the movement direction of the first ratchet surface 311 beside the second sector pawl 2112 is changed from the first sector portion 2111 to the second sector portion 2111. In the direction of the fan-shaped portion 2112, that is, when the first ratchet surface 311 rotates in the clockwise direction, the spherical head of the first plunger 211 biased by the spring is the recess 2113 of the first pawl element 211. The first ratchet surface 311 can drive and rotate the first pawl element 211, that is, the teeth of the second fan-shaped pawl 2112 can be rotated to the first ratchet surface. The rotation of the first pawl element 211 is transmitted to the main shaft 100 through the countershaft 210, so that the main shaft 100 is driven. The direction of movement of the first ratchet surface 311 next to the second sector pawl 2112 is the direction from the second sector portion 2112 to the first sector portion 2111, that is, the first ratchet When the surface 311 rotates counterclockwise, the spherical head of the first plunger 211 biased by the spring binds to the second side wall 2115 of the recess 2113 of the first pawl element 211, so that the first The ratchet surface 311 cannot drive and rotate the first pawl element 211, that is, the teeth of the second sector pawl 2112 do not engage the teeth of the first ratchet surface 311.

  On the other hand, the movement direction of the second ratchet surface 321 beside the second fan-shaped pawl of the second pawl element 212 is the direction from the first fan-shaped portion of the second pawl element 212 to the second fan-shaped portion. That is, if the second ratchet surface 321 rotates in the clockwise direction, the spherical head of the second plunger 222 biased by the spring is connected to the second side wall of the recess of the second pawl element 212. Thus, the second ratchet surface 321 can drive and rotate the second pawl element 212, i.e., the second fan-shaped pawl tooth of the second pawl element 212 is the tooth of the second ratchet surface 312. Therefore, the rotation of the second pawl element 212 is transmitted to the main shaft 100 through the counter shaft 210, so that the main shaft 100 is driven to rotate. However, the direction of movement of the second ratchet surface 321 beside the second sector pawl of the second pawl element 212 is in the direction from the second sector portion of the second pawl element 212 to the first sector portion. Yes, i.e., when the second ratchet surface 321 rotates counterclockwise, the spherical head of the second plunger 222 biased by the spring is associated with the second side wall of the recess of the second pawl element 212. Therefore, the second ratchet surface 321 cannot drive and rotate the second pawl element 212, that is, the second fan-shaped pawl tooth of the second ratchet surface 321 does not move on the second ratchet surface 321. Does not engage teeth.

  From the driving among the idle gears 331 and 332, the driving gear 312, and the driven gear 322, the rotation direction of the second ratchet surface 321 is opposite to that of the first ratchet surface 311 when the holding ring is fixed. . From this, when the bidirectional wrench of the present invention is in the second operation mode, when the input torque from the working unit 10 is a clockwise torque, the first ratchet surface 311 rotates clockwise, The second ratchet surface 321 rotates counterclockwise. At this time, the first pawl element 211 is engaged with the first ratchet surface 311 and the second pawl element 212 is engaged with the second ratchet surface 321. Therefore, when the first pawl element 211 drives the spindle 100 to rotate clockwise, the output torque is clockwise, and the input torque from the working unit 10 is counterclockwise, 1 ratchet 311 rotates counterclockwise, and the second ratchet surface 321 rotates clockwise, at which time the first pawl element 211 does not engage the first ratchet surface 311, It is understood that the second pawl element 212 engages the second ratchet surface 321 and thus the second pawl element 212 drives the spindle 100 to rotate clockwise and the output torque is a clockwise torque. can do.

  As described above, the first operation mode and the second operation mode of the bidirectional wrench of the present invention can be switched and selected by the shaft 220. For convenience, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, the first end of the shaft 220 has a knob 223 that has two ears (in FIG. 8). The ear 2201) is combined with the shaft 220 by embedding it in the knob 223. In this manner, the shaft 220 rotates as the knob 223 is turned. In this embodiment, two protrusions such as the protrusion 2231 protrude from the surface of the knob 223, and the rotation of the knob 223 can be achieved by applying a rotational torque to the two protrusions including the protrusion 2231.

  The bi-directional wrench of the present invention further includes a block device that keeps the bi-directional wrench of the present invention in the selected operation mode until the operator artificially switches the selected operation mode to another mode. 9 and 10, the block device in this embodiment is located at the ball 400 disposed between the output end 101 and the second end of the shaft 220 and the second end of the shaft 220. , And a groove corresponding to the ball 400, specifically, a first groove 410 and a second groove 421. The first groove 410 and the second groove 421 are parallel to each other and separated by a smooth protrusion.

  When the ball 400 is in the first groove 410, the head actuating portions of the first plunger 221 biased by the spring and the second plunger 222 biased by the spring are respectively connected to the first pawl elements 211. And when connected to the first side wall of the recess of the second pawl element 222, i.e., to maintain the first mode of operation of the bidirectional wrench of the present invention and when the ball 400 is in the second groove 420, The head actuating portions of the spring-biased first plunger 221 and the spring-biased second plunger 222 are the second pawls in the recesses of the first pawl element 211 and the second pawl element 222, respectively. It remains attached to the side wall, i.e. maintains the second mode of operation of the bidirectional wrench of the present invention. When the knob 223 is turned to rotate the shaft column 220 and the ball 400 is moved from the first groove 410 to the second groove 420, the bidirectional wrench of the present invention moves from the first operation mode to the second operation. When the mode is changed and the knob 223 is turned to rotate the shaft 220 and the ball 400 is moved from the second groove 420 to the first groove 410, the bidirectional wrench of the present invention performs the second operation. The mode changes from the mode to the first operation mode.

  In this embodiment, the transmission seat 330 is constantly engaged with the retaining ring 102 and the transmission seat 330 is fixed relative to the retaining ring 102, so that when the working part 20 rotates relative to the retaining ring 102, the idle gear 331, 332 rotates the follower gear 322 and the capstan 312 in opposite directions. In use, in order to keep the idle gears 331, 332 activated and to ensure that the second ratchet surface 321 and the first ratchet surface 311 rotate in opposite directions, the operator holds the retaining ring 102. By holding it, the transmission seat 330 can be correctly positioned, so that the capstan gear 312 drives and rotates the idle gears 331 and 331, and then drives and rotates the follower gear 322, so that the second ratchet surface 321 and the first ratchet surface 311 can be rotated in opposite directions. In other embodiments of the present invention, other methods may be used to properly position the transmission seat 330 and thus drive and operate the idle gears 331, 332.

  In addition, as already mentioned, the output end 101 of the bi-directional wrench of the present invention may be a suitable component for operating various fasteners such as clamping screws by attaching various sleeves, The ball 400 of the blocking device can also be used to block the various sleeves attached to the output end 101 at this time.
