PRESSURE FLUID OPERATED TOOL This invention relates to a pressure fluid operated tool of the kind that includes a control valve. As examples of such tools can be mentioned chipping hammers, nut runners, screw drivers, grinding machines and blowing nozzles. Usually,'the control valve in such tools is a poppet valve or a slide valve, and with such a valve it can be difficult to moderate the flow of pressure fluid, especially when a very limited air flow is desired.
In certain tools, two or more separate valve functions are needed. In a chipping hammer, for instance, one control is needed for the impact motor and one control for the separate steady blowing for the removal of the cuttings or chips on the surface being worked. Normally, two separate poppet valves are used for this purpose; an expensive and cumbersome solution.
It is an object of the invention to provide for an improved valve function in pressure fluid operated tools by means of a simple and inexpensive control valve which, furthermore, permits a plurality of valve functions, and to this end the invention has'been given the characteristics stated in the claims.
The invention. will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings which show a chipping hammer as-an embodiment of the invention. FIG.
1 is a longitudinal section through the chipping hammer; FIG. 2 is a modified form of the back head and the control valve of the chipping hammer. FIG. 3 is an enlarged longitudinal section, taken along line 33 in FIG. 4, through the valving element of the control valve, the valving element being the same as in FIG. 1. FIG. 4 is a cross section along line 4--4 in FIG. 3. FIGS. 5 and 6 are also cross sections along line 4-4 in FIG. 3 but they show the valving element deformed to permit compressed air to pass on the outside thereof.
FIG. 7 is a section along line 77 in FIG. 80f a valving element which is a modification of that shown'in FIG. 3. FIG. 8, finally, is a cross section along line 88 in FIG. 7.
The chipping hammer shown in FIG. 1 has a housing in two parts; the forward part 12 containing an impact motor 50 and the rear part 13 containing a control valve 15. The impact motor 50 has a hammer piston 16 controlled by a disc valve 17 which supplies compressed air alternately to the working chamber formed at the rear of the piston and to a channel 18 leading to the working chamber formed in front of the'piston so as to provide for the reciprocating movement of the piston. These working chambers vent alternately to an exhaust channel 20 during the reciprocation of the hammer piston. In the front end of the tool, a chisel 21 is inserted and held by a retainer 22 so that the hammer piston will strike the end face 23 of the chisel during its reciprocation.
Through a fitting 24, compressed air is supplied axially to an inlet 25, the forward portion of which forms a socket 26 for a cup-shaped elastomeric valving element 27. A channel 28 leads from the peripheral wall of the socket 26 to a cylindrical chamber 29 from which compressed air can be supplied through a channel 30 to the rear side of the disc valve 17 and to the forward side of the disc valve-through a channel 31 indicatedby dotted lines in FIG. 2. Another channel 32 leads from the peripheral wall of thesocket 26 to the exhaust channel 20.
The valving element 27 is molded for instance in polyurethane rubber as a one-piece element and it has a cylindrical wall 33 (FIG. 3) and a flat bottom 34 with an excentrically placed axially extending cylindrical heel 35. The valving element 27 is hollow so that its peripheral surface 33 is forced against the socket 26 not only by its own spring action but also by the air pressure to close the two channels 28, 32. Axially, the valv-' ing element 27 is held in place by being forced against the bottom 45 of the socket 26 by virtue of the air pressure. Associated with the channels 28, 32, there are rods 36, 37 which are slidable in respective radial bores 48, 49. By means of handles 38, 39 pivotably mounted on fixed pivots 40, 41, these rods 36, 37 can be individually forced inwardly to deform the cylindrical wall 33 of the valving element so that axial compressed air passages to the channels 28, 32 are formed between the valving element 27 and its socket 26. In FIG. 5 is shown the deformation of the valving element 27 when the rod 36 is forced somewhat inwardly by means of the handle 38 so that a restricted axial passage is formed, and in FIG. 6 the valving element is shown in the form it takes up when the rod 36 is forced fully inwardly so that the impact motor operates with full pressure. In the embodiment of FIG. 1 the longitudinal axis 54 of the channel 32 intersects atan acute angle a with the-axis of the socket 26. The same condition exists for channel 28 in FIG. 1.
Turning of the valving element 27 is prevented by means of the heel 35 so that two feathers 42, 43, integral with the valving element, will always be located adjacent therods 36, 37 to increase theclosing force of the valving element and axially stiffen the latter.
The valving element 27 can be replaced in a very simple way. After screwing off a bushing 44 in which the fitting 24 is screwed, one can blow out the valving element by supplying compressed air backwardly through the channel 20, andthen another valving element can be forced down through the inlet 25 and into the socket 26. To ensure the blowing-out of the valving element, there is a narrow channel 47 between the channel 20 and the bottom 45 of the socket.
In FIGS. 7 and 8, a valving element is-shown which has an additional axial stiffener in the form of a U- shaped wire 46 inserted in the valving element from the underside thereof. In the embodiment of FIGS. 7 and 8, the U-shaped wire 46 extends through bores 51, 52 in the wall portions of the valving element 27- in the vicinity of the stiffening features 42, 43. The wire 46 can be used with or without the stiffening feathers 42, 43. The bottom of the U-shaped wire 46 is in a recess 53 in the bottom of the valving element 27 so that the bottom surface of valving element "27 is flat.
In FIG. 2, the valving element 27 is conical .instead of cylindrical. This form permits the channel 28 to be parallel with the inlet 25.
