Definitions

  • Such tools which may be concrete breakers; frock drills 'nii other*- haminerftools-usually comprise a backhead, AaA front head zandone. or more intermediate ca'singswhichtoge'ther' with' -the cylinder easing ','fare stapledf'one npon.the other between saidihealis and "held together by two,or-more.bolts.
  • FfFor yaifiuspurposes passages extend ⁇ longitudinally of one or more of said casings and openings are provided for the exhaust of air from the working cylinder and for other purposes. The provision of such passages and openings results in a complicated external shape of the various casings which are usually forgings.
  • the external shape of the casings usually shows many projections for accommodating the passages or openings which projections are liable to be exposed to damage in the rough handling to which tools of this kind are often exposed. It is also difcult to keep such tools clean and also the projections may cause difculties for the operator and also transmit vibrations and shocks to the operator.
  • One object of the present invention is to avoid these diculties and to simplify the shape of the various casings, and to reduce manufacturing costs.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide tools of this character which have a smooth external shape and which may easily be kept clean.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide in a simple manner spaces suitable as air receivers and for accommodating mufers or lubricating oil magazines.
  • a pneumatic percussion tool comprising a cylinder casing, a working cylinder in said cylinder casing, a differential hammer piston reciprocable in said working cylinder, a valve casing at the rear end of the cylinder casing, an intermediate casing forming a yguide for the small diameter portion of said harrnner piston at the front end of the cylinder casing, a back head, a front head, a tube in which said cylinder casing and said intermediate casing are stapled one upon the other, lands on said cylinder casing cooperating with the inner wall of said tube and having substantially the same outer diameter as the inner diameter of the tube, and bolts connecting said front head and said rear head and pressing said heads and the cylinder casing and intermediate casing axially together within said tube.
