Definitions

  • the invention is particularly directed to portable percussion tools such as paving breakers, hammers, riveters, rock drills and the like but the invention may also be used in pile drivers, sheeting drivers or the like.
  • piston in tools according to the invention may be operated pneumatically or hydraulically or by other pressure fluids as the case may be.
  • a disadvantage of percussion tools is the vibrations or shocks transmitted to the handles or other members serving to feed or to carry the tool towards a work piece during operation of the tool.
  • One object of the invention is to minimize or eliminate said shock and vibration transmission.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a simple, economical and efiicient percussion tool in which the transmission of vibrations or shocks from the tool to the handle or handles or other feeding means is materially reduced.
  • FIG. 3 is a longitudinal section through the cylinder axis of the same tool on a plane at 45 to the section planes of FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • FIG. 4 is a transverse section on line IVIV of FIG. 3.
  • FIG. 4 also illustrates the planes II, IIII and IIIIII on which the longitudinal sections of FIGS. 1 to 3, respectively, are taken.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 are longitudinal sec tions of a modification of the tool in FIGS. 1-4.
  • FIG. 7 is a cross section on line VIIVH of FIG. 6.
  • hammer piston reciprocable in said working cylinder member and said housing, means operative to effect pneumatic control of said first mentioned means for automatically adjusting the value of said force to maintain said member relative to said housing in a substantially predetermined mean position -and for maintaining such adjusted value relatively constant over a considerable number of successive reciprocations of said hammer piston, means in the housing for supplying pressure fluid to the working cylinder, distributing valve means in the housing controlling pressure fluid supply to working chambers in the working cylinder for producing a rapid working stroke and a relatively slow return stroke and including a distributing valve member, passages in said distributing valve means for venting the main portion of the compressed air cushions produced by the hammer piston during the working stroke and the return stroke, respec: tively, and further passages in the distributing valve means for supplying pressure fluid for moving said distributing valve member to positions for admitting pressure fluid to said working chambers, respectively.
