In this known electric hammer, a handle grasped by an operator is connected to a rear end portion of the main body housing opposite to the hammer bit via a vibration isolation mechanism. The anti-vibration mechanism is mainly composed of a plurality of rubbers disposed between the main body housing and the handle. According to the known technique, the vibration of the operator during the machining operation is reduced. On the other hand, when assembling the tool main body and the handle, the plurality of rubbers must be maintained at the arrangement position after the plurality of rubbers are individually arranged between the tool main body and the handle. It is cumbersome and there is room for improvement in this regard.
 本発明は、上記の問題に鑑み、防振機構を有する作業工具において、組立性の向上に資する技術を提供することをその目的とする。 In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a technique that contributes to an improvement in assemblability in a work tool having a vibration isolation mechanism.

When the tool body and the handle are assembled, the vibration isolation element disposed between the tool body and the handle is It is easy to maintain the position at the position. For this reason, the assemblability when the tool body and the handle are assembled can be improved.

By adopting such an annular connection structure, when the vibration isolating element is assembled between the tool body and the handle in an intervening manner, the vibration isolating element can be set so as to be fitted to the peripheral surface of the vibration isolating element arrangement region of the tool main body or the handle. This makes it possible to further improve the ease of handling the vibration isolating element.

The following detailed description is only to teach those skilled in the art with detailed information to implement preferred embodiments of the invention, and the scope of the invention is not limited by the detailed description, but is limited by the scope of the claims. It is determined based on the description. For this reason, combinations of configurations and method steps in the following detailed description are not all essential to implement the present invention in a broad sense, but are described in detail with reference numerals in the accompanying drawings. However, only representative embodiments of the present invention are disclosed.
(First embodiment of the present invention)
Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. This embodiment will be described using an electric hammer drill as an example of a work tool. FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing the overall configuration of the electric hammer drill according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the hammer drill 101 according to the present embodiment is generally viewed as having a main body 103 that forms an outline of the hammer drill 101, and a cylindrical region in the tip region (left side in the drawing) of the main body 103. A hammer bit 119 detachably attached via a tool holder 137 and a hand grip 109 gripped by a user connected to the opposite side of the main body 103 to the hammer bit 119 are mainly configured. The main body 103 corresponds to the “tool main body” in the present invention, the hammer bit 119 corresponds to the “tip tool” in the present invention, and the hand grip 109 corresponds to the “handle” in the present invention. The hammer bit 119 is held by the tool holder 137 so that the hammer bit 119 can be reciprocated relatively in the major axis direction, and the relative rotation in the circumferential direction is restricted. For convenience of explanation, the hammer bit 119 side is referred to as the front, and the hand grip 109 side is referred to as the rear.
 本体部103は、駆動モータ111を収容したモータハウジング105と、運動変換機構113、打撃要素115及び動力伝達機構117を収容したギアハウジング107とを主体として構成されている。ギアハウジング107は、その前方に筒状のバレル部106を備えている。駆動モータ111の回転出力は、運動変換機構113によって直線運動に適宜変換された上で打撃要素115に伝達され、当該打撃要素115を介してハンマビット119の長軸方向(図1における左右方向)への衝撃力を発生する。また、駆動モータ111の回転出力は、動力伝達機構117によって適宜減速された上でツールホルダ137に伝達され、当該ツールホルダ137と共にハンマビット119が周方向に回転動作される。ギアハウジング107の下方において、駆動モータ111はその回転軸線がハンマビット119の長軸線に対し交差するように縦向きに配置されている。なお、駆動モータ111は、ハンドグリップ109に配置されたトリガ109aを作業者が引き操作することによって通電駆動される。 The main body 103 is mainly composed of a motor housing 105 that houses a drive motor 111 and a gear housing 107 that houses a motion conversion mechanism 113, a striking element 115, and a power transmission mechanism 117. The gear housing 107 includes a cylindrical barrel portion 106 in front of it. The rotational output of the drive motor 111 is appropriately converted into a linear motion by the motion conversion mechanism 113 and then transmitted to the striking element 115, and the major axis direction of the hammer bit 119 (the left-right direction in FIG. 1) via the striking element 115. Generates an impact force on. The rotational output of the drive motor 111 is transmitted to the tool holder 137 after being appropriately decelerated by the power transmission mechanism 117, and the hammer bit 119 is rotated in the circumferential direction together with the tool holder 137. Below the gear housing 107, the drive motor 111 is disposed vertically so that the rotation axis of the drive motor 111 intersects the long axis of the hammer bit 119. The drive motor 111 is energized and driven by an operator pulling and operating a trigger 109 a disposed on the handgrip 109.
 運動変換機構113は、駆動モータ111の回転運動を直線運動に変換して打撃要素115に伝達するものであり、クランク機構を主体として構成される。クランク機構は、駆動モータ111によって回転駆動されることによって当該クランク機構の最終可動部材を構成する駆動子としてのピストン129がシリンダ141の内壁に沿ってハンマビット長軸方向に直線動作するように構成される。一方、動力伝達機構117は、複数のギアからなるギア減速機構を主体として構成され、駆動モータ111の回転力をツールホルダ137に伝達する。これによりツールホルダ137が鉛直面内にて回転され、それに伴い当該ツールホルダ137により保持されたハンマビット119が回転する構成とされる。なお、運動変換機構113及び動力伝達機構117の具体的な構成については、本願発明には直接的には関係しないため、その説明を省略する。 The motion conversion mechanism 113 converts the rotational motion of the drive motor 111 into a linear motion and transmits it to the striking element 115, and is mainly composed of a crank mechanism. The crank mechanism is configured such that a piston 129 as a driver constituting the final movable member of the crank mechanism linearly moves along the inner wall of the cylinder 141 in the hammer bit major axis direction by being rotationally driven by the drive motor 111. Is done. On the other hand, the power transmission mechanism 117 is mainly configured by a gear reduction mechanism including a plurality of gears, and transmits the rotational force of the drive motor 111 to the tool holder 137. As a result, the tool holder 137 is rotated in the vertical plane, and the hammer bit 119 held by the tool holder 137 is rotated accordingly. Note that the specific configurations of the motion conversion mechanism 113 and the power transmission mechanism 117 are not directly related to the present invention and will not be described.
 打撃要素115は、ピストン129とともにシリンダ141のボア内壁に摺動自在に配置された打撃子としてのストライカ143と、ツールホルダ137に摺動自在に配置された中間子としてのインパクトボルト145とを主体として構成される。ストライカ143は、ピストン129の摺動動作に伴うシリンダ141の空気室141aの空気バネを介して駆動され、インパクトボルト145に衝突(打撃)し、当該インパクトボルト145を介してハンマビット119に打撃力を伝達する。 The striking element 115 is mainly composed of a striker 143 as a striking element slidably disposed on the bore inner wall of the cylinder 141 together with the piston 129, and an impact bolt 145 as an intermediate element slidably disposed on the tool holder 137. Composed. The striker 143 is driven via an air spring in the air chamber 141a of the cylinder 141 accompanying the sliding movement of the piston 129, collides with (impacts) the impact bolt 145, and strikes the hammer bit 119 via the impact bolt 145. To communicate.
 上記のように構成されたハンマドリル101においては、駆動モータ111が通電駆動されると、ハンマビット119には、クランク機構によって構成される運動変換機構113から打撃要素115を介して長軸方向への打撃力が加えられるとともに、ギア減速機構によって構成される動力伝達機構117を介して周方向への回転力が加えられる。かくして、ハンマビット119が長軸方向のハンマ動作と周方向のドリル動作を行い、被加工材(コンクリート)に穴開け作業を遂行する。
 なお、ハンマドリル101は、ハンマビット119に対し長軸方向への打撃力のみを加えるハンマ作業と、長軸方向への打撃力と周方向への回転力を加えるハンマドリル作業とを適宜切り替えて遂行できるように構成されるが、このことについては、本発明には直接的には関係しないため、その説明を省略する。
In the hammer drill 101 configured as described above, when the drive motor 111 is energized and driven, the hammer bit 119 is moved from the motion conversion mechanism 113 configured by the crank mechanism to the major axis direction via the striking element 115. A striking force is applied, and a rotational force in the circumferential direction is applied via a power transmission mechanism 117 constituted by a gear reduction mechanism. Thus, the hammer bit 119 performs a hammering operation in the major axis direction and a drilling operation in the circumferential direction to perform a drilling operation on the workpiece (concrete).
The hammer drill 101 can be performed by appropriately switching between a hammer operation that applies only a striking force in the long axis direction to the hammer bit 119 and a hammer drill operation that applies a striking force in the long axis direction and a rotational force in the circumferential direction. However, since this is not directly related to the present invention, the description thereof is omitted.
 ハンマドリル101による加工作業時には、ハンマビット119の打撃動作に伴い本体部103に振動が発生する。このときの主たる振動は、ハンマビット119の長軸方向の振動である。本体部103に発生した振動のハンドグリップ109への伝達を低減するべく、当該ハンドグリップ109は上下の防振機構161,171を介して本体部103の後端部に連結される。 At the time of the machining operation by the hammer drill 101, vibration is generated in the main body 103 in accordance with the hammering operation of the hammer bit 119. The main vibration at this time is vibration in the major axis direction of the hammer bit 119. In order to reduce the transmission of vibration generated in the main body 103 to the hand grip 109, the hand grip 109 is connected to the rear end of the main body 103 via the upper and lower vibration isolation mechanisms 161 and 171.
 ハンドグリップ109は、ハンマビット119の長軸方向と交差する上下方向に延在するグリップ部151を有するとともに、当該グリップ部151の上端部と下端部には、それぞれ前方に向かって概ね水平状に突出する連接部153,155が形成され、それら上下の連接部153,155が本体部103の後部(図1の右側)を覆うカバー部材104に対し上下の防振機構161,171を介して連接されている。これによりハンドグリップグ109は、カバー部材104を含めてループ状ハンドル(側面視でD形ハンドル)を構成している。なお、グリップ部151及び上下の連接部153,155は、中空状に形成されている。カバー部材104は、図1に示すように、本体部103の後部に配置された状態で、便宜上図示を省略するネジ等によって本体部103に対し所定の複数箇所が止着される。すなわち、カバー部材104は、本体部103に組み付け固定される本体部側部材である。 The hand grip 109 has a grip portion 151 extending in the vertical direction intersecting the major axis direction of the hammer bit 119, and the upper end portion and the lower end portion of the grip portion 151 are generally horizontally directed forward. Protruding connecting portions 153 and 155 are formed, and the upper and lower connecting portions 153 and 155 are connected to the cover member 104 covering the rear portion (right side in FIG. 1) of the main body 103 via the upper and lower vibration isolation mechanisms 161 and 171. Has been. As a result, the handgrip 109 forms a loop-shaped handle (D-shaped handle in a side view) including the cover member 104. The grip portion 151 and the upper and lower connecting portions 153 and 155 are formed in a hollow shape. As shown in FIG. 1, the cover member 104 is disposed at a rear portion of the main body portion 103, and a plurality of predetermined positions are fixed to the main body portion 103 with screws or the like not shown for convenience. That is, the cover member 104 is a main body side member that is assembled and fixed to the main body 103.
 次に、上下の防振機構161,171につき、図2~図4を参照しつつ説明する。上側の防振機構161は、図2に示すように、カバー部材104の後部と上側の連接部153の前部間に介在状に配置された圧縮コイルバネ163を主体として構成されている。圧縮コイルバネ163は、その弾発力の作用方向(軸方向)が、振動の入力方向であるハンマビット119の長軸方向に概ね一致するように配置されている。圧縮コイルバネ163は、ハンマビット119の長軸線を延長した直線よりも上方位置に置かれ、その軸方向の一端がカバー部材104によって支持され、他端が連接部153によって支持される。なお、圧縮コイルバネ163は、上側の連接部153とカバー部材104間に配置された伸縮自在なゴム製の防塵カバー165によって被覆されている。 Next, the upper and lower vibration isolation mechanisms 161 and 171 will be described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIG. 2, the upper vibration isolation mechanism 161 is mainly configured by a compression coil spring 163 disposed in an intervening manner between the rear portion of the cover member 104 and the front portion of the upper connecting portion 153. The compression coil spring 163 is arranged such that the direction of action (axial direction) of the elastic force substantially coincides with the major axis direction of the hammer bit 119 that is the input direction of vibration. The compression coil spring 163 is placed above a straight line obtained by extending the long axis of the hammer bit 119, one end in the axial direction is supported by the cover member 104, and the other end is supported by the connecting portion 153. The compression coil spring 163 is covered with an elastic rubber dustproof cover 165 disposed between the upper connecting portion 153 and the cover member 104.
 図2~図4に示すように、下側の防振機構171は、カバー部材104の後部と下側の連接部155の前部間に介在状に配置された複数(本実施の形態では4個)の弾性ゴム173と、カバー部材104の下側後部に形成された内側ゴム受175と、下側の連接部155の前部に形成された外側ゴム受177と、複数(本実施の形態では4個)の弾性ゴム173を互いに接続する接続部173aとを主体として構成されている。下側の防振機構171は、本発明における「防振機構」に対応し、弾性ゴム173は、本発明における「防振要素」に対応し、接続部173aは、本発明における「接続部」に対応する。4個の弾性ゴム173は、同じ大きさと形状の球状に形成されている。すなわち、同一の振動低減機能を有する構成とされ、内側ゴム受175と当該内側ゴム受175に被さるように配置された外側ゴム受177との間に配置される。 As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the lower vibration isolation mechanism 171 includes a plurality of (four in the present embodiment) disposed in an intervening manner between the rear portion of the cover member 104 and the front portion of the lower connecting portion 155.

That is, it is set as the structure which has the same vibration reduction function, and is arrange | positioned between the inner side rubber receiver 175 and the outer side rubber receiver 177 arrange | positioned so that the said inner side rubber receiver 175 may be covered.
 内側ゴム受175は、断面縦長方形の外面形状を有するとともに、図2に示すように、その上部外面及び下部外面がそれぞれ付根側から後方に向かって先細りのテーパ状に形成されており、当該上部外面及び下部外面には、弾性ゴム173を保持する略半球凹面状の係合凹部175aが各2個ずつ形成されている。内側ゴム受175に被さる外側ゴム受177は、その内面形状が内側ゴム受175の外面形状に対応する断面縦長方形(ただし、略半球凹面状の係合凹部を有しない)の筒状に形成されている。 The inner rubber receiver 175 has an outer surface shape with a vertically rectangular cross section, and as shown in FIG. 2, the upper outer surface and the lower outer surface thereof are each formed in a tapered shape tapered from the root side toward the rear. Two engagement recesses 175a each having a substantially hemispherical concave shape for holding the elastic rubber 173 are formed on the outer surface and the lower outer surface. The outer rubber receiver 177 covering the inner rubber receiver 175 is formed in a cylindrical shape whose inner surface shape corresponds to the outer surface shape of the inner rubber receiver 175 (however, it does not have a substantially hemispherical concave engaging recess). ing.

As a whole, the hammer bit 119 is placed at a position lower than a straight line obtained by extending the major axis (see FIG. 1). Each elastic rubber 173 is pressed by the upper and lower inner surfaces (tapered surfaces) of the outer rubber receiver 177 in the radial direction while being fitted in engagement recesses 175a formed on the upper outer surface and the lower outer surface of the inner rubber receiver 175, respectively. It is held in a pinched form. The four elastic rubbers 173 arranged as described above are connected to each other in advance by integral molding at the time of molding. That is, the spherical elastic rubbers 173 according to the present embodiment are configured such that adjacent ones are connected in a substantially square annular shape by a connecting portion 173a having a circular cross section smaller in diameter than the elastic rubber 173.
 図2及び図3に示すように、カバー部材104側には、ハンマビット119の長軸方向に貫通する2個の円形の貫通孔104aが形成され、当該貫通孔104aはグリップ部151の長軸方向の直線を挟んで左右対称に形成されている。これら左右の貫通孔104aに対し下側の連接部155に設けた各1個の円形の柱状部材155aが後方から摺動自在に差し込まれる。そして差し込まれた柱状部材155aは、カバー部材104側から当該柱状部材155aにねじ込まれたストッパボルト179の頭部179aがカバー部材104の前面(貫通孔104aの孔縁)に当接することによって抜け止めされている。なお、便宜上図示を省略するが、上側の連接部153についても、上記の下側の連接部155における貫通孔104a、柱状部材155a、及びストッパボルト179を利用した連結構造、またはそれに類似の構造を用いてカバー部材104に連結される。また、下側の防振機構171は、下側の連接部155とカバー部材104間に配置された伸縮自在なゴム製の防塵カバー181によって被覆され、これによって防振機構171内部への粉塵等の侵入が防止されている。 As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, two circular through holes 104 a penetrating in the long axis direction of the hammer bit 119 are formed on the cover member 104 side, and the through holes 104 a are long axes of the grip portion 151. It is formed symmetrically across a straight line in the direction. One circular columnar member 155a provided at the lower connecting portion 155 is slidably inserted from the rear side into the left and right through holes 104a. The inserted columnar member 155a is prevented from coming off when the head 179a of the stopper bolt 179 screwed into the columnar member 155a from the cover member 104 side contacts the front surface of the cover member 104 (hole edge of the through hole 104a). Has been. Although not shown for convenience, the upper connecting portion 153 also has a connecting structure using the through hole 104a, the columnar member 155a, and the stopper bolt 179 in the lower connecting portion 155 or a similar structure. Used to connect to the cover member 104. Further, the lower vibration isolating mechanism 171 is covered with a stretchable rubber dust proof cover 181 disposed between the lower connecting portion 155 and the cover member 104, thereby dust or the like entering the vibration isolating mechanism 171. Intrusion is prevented.
 上記のように構成されたハンマドリル101によるハンマ作業あるいはハンマドリル作業は、ハンドグリップ109のグリップ部151を把持した作業者が、本体部103に対しハンマビット119の長軸方向への押圧力を作用させつつハンマビット119を被加工材に押し付けた状態で行う。この押し付けによりカバー部材104に対してハンドグリップ109が圧縮コイルバネ163及び弾性ゴム173の変形相当量だけ接近し、ストッパボルト179の頭部179aがカバー部材104の前面から離間する。 In the hammer work or the hammer drill work by the hammer drill 101 configured as described above, an operator who holds the grip part 151 of the hand grip 109 applies a pressing force in the major axis direction of the hammer bit 119 to the main body part 103. While this is done, the hammer bit 119 is pressed against the workpiece. By this pressing, the hand grip 109 approaches the cover member 104 by an amount equivalent to the deformation of the compression coil spring 163 and the elastic rubber 173, and the head 179 a of the stopper bolt 179 is separated from the front surface of the cover member 104.
 上記の加工作業時において、本体部103にはハンマビット119の長軸方向に衝撃的かつ周期的な振動が発生するが、本体部103側からハンドグリップ109側への振動の伝達は、上側においては圧縮コイルバネ163の弾性変形によって低減され、下側においては弾性ゴム173の弾性変形によって低減することができる。 During the above machining operation, the main body 103 is subjected to shock and periodic vibration in the long axis direction of the hammer bit 119. However, vibration transmission from the main body 103 side to the hand grip 109 side is performed on the upper side. Can be reduced by elastic deformation of the compression coil spring 163, and can be reduced by elastic deformation of the elastic rubber 173 on the lower side.
 ところで、カバー部材104に対するハンドグリップ109の組み付けは、上側の連接部153とカバー部材104間に圧縮コイルバネ163を配置する一方、下側の連接部155の柱状部材155aをカバー部材104の貫通孔104aに差し込むとともに、弾性ゴム173が嵌め込まれた内側ゴム受175に対して外側ゴム受177を被せ、その後ストッパボルト179を柱状部材155aにねじ込むといった作業を行うことによってなされる。このような組み付けは、カバー部材104を本体部103の後部に組み付ける前に行う。すなわち、ハンドグリップ109とカバー部材104とを予め組み付けることによって、上下の防振機構161,171によって連接されたハンドグリップアッセンブリーが構成されることになる。 By the way, the assembly of the hand grip 109 to the cover member 104 is performed by arranging the compression coil spring 163 between the upper connecting portion 153 and the cover member 104, while the columnar member 155 a of the lower connecting portion 155 is inserted into the through hole 104 a of the cover member 104. In addition, the outer rubber receiver 177 is put on the inner rubber receiver 175 fitted with the elastic rubber 173, and then the stopper bolt 179 is screwed into the columnar member 155a. Such assembly is performed before the cover member 104 is assembled to the rear portion of the main body 103. That is, by assembling the handgrip 109 and the cover member 104 in advance, a handgrip assembly connected by the upper and lower vibration isolation mechanisms 161 and 171 is configured.
 本実施の形態では、複数の弾性ゴム173を予め一体成形によって隣り合うもの同士が接続部173aを介して互いに環状に接続された構成としている。このため、複数の弾性ゴム173が一体化(一部品化)され、部品点数を削減することができる。また、複数の弾性ゴム173が一部品化されることから、上記のようなハンドグリップ109とカバー部材104との組み付けを行う場合において、弾性ゴム173を内側ゴム受175の外周面に嵌合する(巻き付く)ように取り付けて各係合凹部175aに嵌め込んだ位置に維持できる。すなわち、手を離しても弾性ゴム173が脱落しないため、下側の連接部155の外側ゴム受177を内側ゴム受175に容易に被せることが可能となり、カバー部材104に対するハンドグリップ109の組立性を向上することができる。 In the present embodiment, a plurality of elastic rubbers 173 that are adjacent to each other by integral molding are connected in a ring shape via a connecting portion 173a. For this reason, a plurality of elastic rubbers 173 are integrated (one part), and the number of parts can be reduced. Further, since the plurality of elastic rubbers 173 are formed as one component, the elastic rubber 173 is fitted to the outer peripheral surface of the inner rubber receiver 175 when the hand grip 109 and the cover member 104 are assembled as described above. It can be attached so as to be wound (wrapped) and can be maintained at the position where it is fitted in each engaging recess 175a. That is, since the elastic rubber 173 does not fall off even when the hand is released, the outer rubber receiver 177 of the lower connecting portion 155 can be easily covered with the inner rubber receiver 175, and the assembly of the hand grip 109 with respect to the cover member 104 is possible. Can be improved.
 また、本実施の形態では、複数の弾性ゴム173は、その全てが同一形状、すなわち球状に形成されるとともに、グリップ部151の長軸線に対して線対称に配置されている。このような構成とすることによって、複数の弾性ゴム173による振動低減作用をバランス良く発揮することができる。また、複数の弾性ゴム173をグリップ部151の長軸線に対して線対称に配置したことによって、組み付け方向が1方向に限られない。このため、組み付け作業を楽に行うことができる。 In the present embodiment, the plurality of elastic rubbers 173 are all formed in the same shape, that is, in a spherical shape, and are arranged in line symmetry with respect to the long axis of the grip portion 151. By setting it as such a structure, the vibration reduction effect by the some elastic rubber 173 can be exhibited with sufficient balance. In addition, since the plurality of elastic rubbers 173 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the long axis of the grip portion 151, the assembly direction is not limited to one direction. For this reason, assembly work can be performed easily.
(本発明の第2の実施形態)
 次に、本発明の第2の実施形態につき、図5~図7を参照しつつ説明する。本実施の形態は、ハンマドリル101の本体部103の後方に配置されるメインハンドルとしてのハンドグリップ109とは別に、本体部103の前方領域に取り付けられる補助ハンドルとしてのサイドグリップ211の防振に関するものである。サイドグリップ211は、ギアハウジング107の前方領域を構成するバレル部106に取付けられる。
(Second embodiment of the present invention)
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. The present embodiment relates to vibration isolation of the side grip 211 as an auxiliary handle attached to the front region of the main body 103, separately from the hand grip 109 as the main handle disposed behind the main body 103 of the hammer drill 101. It is. The side grip 211 is attached to the barrel portion 106 that constitutes the front region of the gear housing 107.
 本実施の形態におけるサイドグリップ211は、図5及び図7に示すように、ハンマビット119の長軸方向と交差する方向に延在する棒状グリップであり、長軸方向の一端部がバレル部106に連接され、他端部が自由状態とされる。サイドグリップ211は、本発明における「ハンドル」に対応する。サイドグリップ211は、バレル部106に形成された円環状のハンドル装着部106a(図1参照)に防振機構221を介して取付けられる。防振機構221は、本発明における「防振機構」に対応する。 As shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, the side grip 211 in the present embodiment is a rod-like grip that extends in a direction intersecting with the major axis direction of the hammer bit 119, and one end portion in the major axis direction has a barrel portion 106. And the other end is in a free state. The side grip 211 corresponds to the “handle” in the present invention. The side grip 211 is attached to an annular handle mounting portion 106 a (see FIG. 1) formed on the barrel portion 106 via a vibration isolation mechanism 221. The anti-vibration mechanism 221 corresponds to the “anti-vibration mechanism” in the present invention.
 以下、防振機構221につき説明する。防振機構221は、バレル部106のハンドル装着部106aに固定状態に取付けられる円環状の内側ゴム受223と、当該内側ゴム受223の外側に所定の隙間を置いて遊嵌状に嵌合される円環状の外側ゴム受225と、内側ゴム受223と外側ゴム受225との間に介在状に配置される複数(本実施の形態では6個)の弾性ゴム227と、複数の弾性ゴム227を互いに接続する接続部227aとを主体として構成される。弾性ゴム227は、同じ大きさと形状の球状に形成され、同一の振動低減機能を有する構成とされる。弾性ゴム227は、本発明における「防振要素」に対応し、接続部227aは、本発明における「接続部」に対応する。 Hereinafter, the vibration isolation mechanism 221 will be described. The anti-vibration mechanism 221 is fitted in a loose fit with an annular inner rubber receiver 223 that is fixedly attached to the handle mounting portion 106a of the barrel section 106, and a predetermined gap outside the inner rubber receiver 223. An annular outer rubber receiver 225, a plurality (six in this embodiment) of elastic rubbers 227 disposed between the inner rubber receiver 223 and the outer rubber receiver 225, and a plurality of elastic rubbers 227 And a connection portion 227a that connects the two to each other. The elastic rubber 227 is formed in a spherical shape having the same size and shape and has the same vibration reduction function. The elastic rubber 227 corresponds to the “vibration isolation element” in the present invention, and the connection portion 227a corresponds to the “connection portion” in the present invention.
 6個の弾性ゴム227は、ハンマビット119の長軸方向回り(内側ゴム受223及び外側ゴム受225の軸線回り)に等間隔(60度間隔)で、かつサイドグリップ211の長軸方向の直線に対して線対称に配置される。そして球状の各弾性ゴム227は、内側ゴム受223の外面に形成された略半球凹面状の係合凹部223aと、外側ゴム受225の内面に形成された略半球凹面状の係合凹部225aに嵌め込まれた状態で径方向に挟持状に保持される。このように保持されることによって弾性ゴム227に対しハンマビット119の長軸方向及び周方向には剪断方向の力が作用し、長軸方向と交差する方向には主として圧縮方向に力が作用する構成とされる。 The six elastic rubbers 227 are straight lines around the major axis direction of the hammer bit 119 (around the axis lines of the inner rubber receiver 223 and the outer rubber receiver 225) at equal intervals (60 degree intervals) and in the major axis direction of the side grip 211. Are arranged in line symmetry. Each spherical elastic rubber 227 is formed into a substantially hemispherical concave engaging recess 223a formed on the outer surface of the inner rubber receiver 223 and a substantially hemispherical concave engaging recess 225a formed on the inner surface of the outer rubber receiver 225. In the fitted state, it is held in a pinched shape in the radial direction. By being held in this manner, a shearing direction force acts on the elastic rubber 227 in the major axis direction and the circumferential direction of the hammer bit 119, and a force acts mainly in the compression direction in a direction intersecting the major axis direction. It is supposed to be configured.
 上記のように内側ゴム受223と外側ゴム受225間に配置される6個の弾性ゴム227は、成形時において予め一体成形によって互いに接続される。すなわち、本実施の形態に係る球状の弾性ゴム227は、図5及び図6に示すように、隣り合うもの同士が当該弾性ゴム227よりも小径の断面円形状の接続部227aによって等間隔で円環状に接続された構成とされる。 As described above, the six elastic rubbers 227 disposed between the inner rubber receiver 223 and the outer rubber receiver 225 are connected to each other in advance by integral molding at the time of molding. That is, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the spherical elastic rubber 227 according to the present embodiment is circularly spaced at equal intervals by the connecting portions 227 a having a circular cross section smaller in diameter than the elastic rubber 227. It is set as the structure connected circularly.
 また、図5及び図6に示すように、内側ゴム受223の外面には複数の突部223bが外向きに突設され、外側ゴム受225の内面には複数の突部225bが内向きに突設され、これら両突部223b,225bは、周方向において互いに所定の隙間を置いて係合可能に対向している。これによって当該隙間の範囲内において、弾性ゴム227の弾性変形による内側ゴム受223と外側ゴム受225との周方向の相対移動を可能としている。換言すれば、両突部223b,225bは、内側ゴム受223と外側ゴム受225が突部223b,225b間に設定された周方向の隙間を超えて相対移動することを規制し、これによって弾性ゴム227に作用する周方向の過大な外力から当該弾性ゴム227を保護するストッパとして機能する構成とされる。 Further, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a plurality of protrusions 223 b protrude outwardly on the outer surface of the inner rubber receiver 223, and a plurality of protrusions 225 b inwardly protrude on the inner surface of the outer rubber receiver 225. The protrusions 223b and 225b are opposed to each other so that they can be engaged with each other with a predetermined gap in the circumferential direction. Accordingly, the inner rubber receiver 223 and the outer rubber receiver 225 can be relatively moved in the circumferential direction by elastic deformation of the elastic rubber 227 within the gap. In other words, both the protrusions 223b and 225b restrict the relative movement of the inner rubber receiver 223 and the outer rubber receiver 225 beyond the circumferential gap set between the protrusions 223b and 225b, thereby elastically The elastic rubber 227 is configured to function as a stopper that protects the elastic rubber 227 from excessive circumferential force acting on the rubber 227.
 また、円環状の内側ゴム受223と円環状の外側ゴム受225間への弾性ゴム227の組み付けを可能とするべく、外側ゴム受225は、図5及び図6に示すように、径方向において2分割された半円環状の分割体225A,225Bによって構成されている。そして当該2分割された一方の半円環状の分割体225Aの合わせ面には係止凹部225cが形成され、他方の半円環状の分割体225Bの合わせ面にはフック状の係止片225dが形成されている。従って、係止凹部225aに弾性ゴム227がセットされた内側ゴム受223に対して2つの分割体225A,225Bを互いに対向させて被せると、係止片225dが係止凹部225cに対し弾性変形を利用して係止される。これによって分割体225A,225Bが相互に接合されて組み付けられる。 Further, in order to allow the elastic rubber 227 to be assembled between the annular inner rubber receiver 223 and the annular outer rubber receiver 225, the outer rubber receiver 225 is arranged in the radial direction as shown in FIGS. It is constituted by two divided semi-annular divided bodies 225A and 225B. A locking recess 225c is formed on the mating surface of the one half-circular segment 225A, and a hook-shaped latching piece 225d is formed on the mating surface of the other semi-circular segment 225B. Is formed. Therefore, when the two divided bodies 225A and 225B are put on the inner rubber receiver 223 in which the elastic rubber 227 is set in the locking recess 225a so as to face each other, the locking piece 225d is elastically deformed with respect to the locking recess 225c. It is locked using. Thus, the divided bodies 225A and 225B are joined and assembled together.
 サイドグリップ211は、図5及び図7に示すように、外側ゴム受225の外表面に巻かれるバンド部213と、バンド部213の端部側に配置されるとともに外側ゴム受225の外表面に係合する略U形の係合面215aをベース部215と、ベース部215に長軸回りに相対回動自在に連接されるグリップ部217と、バンド部213を締め付ける締付用ネジ付き操作ロッド219とを主体として構成される。操作ロッド219は、グリップ部217及びベース部215の中心部を遊嵌状に貫通して長軸方向に延在し、一端がバンド部213の端部に係合し、他端がグリップ部217の内部に配置されたナット216に螺合されている。ナット216はグリップ部217に対し相対回動が規制されている。従って、グリップ部217を長軸線回りに右回りあるいは左回りに回転操作し、ナット216に螺合した締付用ネジ付き操作ロッド219を長軸方向に前進あるいは後退動作させることによってバンド部213の締付け、及び締付け解除を行うことができる。バンド部213の締め付けによりサイドグリップ211は、外側ゴム受225に固定される。 As shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, the side grip 211 is disposed on the outer surface of the outer rubber receiver 225, the band portion 213 wound around the outer surface of the outer rubber receiver 225, and disposed on the outer surface of the outer rubber receiver 225. A substantially U-shaped engaging surface 215a to be engaged with, a base portion 215, a grip portion 217 connected to the base portion 215 so as to be relatively rotatable about a long axis, and an operating rod with a tightening screw for tightening the band portion 213 219. The operation rod 219 passes through the center of the grip portion 217 and the base portion 215 in a loosely fitting manner, extends in the long axis direction, one end engages with the end portion of the band portion 213, and the other end grip portion 217. Is screwed into a nut 216 disposed inside the. The nut 216 is restricted from rotating relative to the grip portion 217. Accordingly, the grip portion 217 is rotated clockwise or counterclockwise around the major axis, and the operating rod 219 with a tightening screw screwed to the nut 216 is moved forward or backward in the major axis direction to thereby move the band portion 213. Tightening and releasing can be performed. The side grip 211 is fixed to the outer rubber receiver 225 by tightening the band portion 213.
 本実施の形態によれば、サイドグリップ211は、ギアハウジング107のバレル部106に防振機構221を介して取付けられる。従って、ハンマドリル101による加工作業時において、本体部103に発生した振動の、当該本体部103側からサイドグリップ211側への振動の伝達は、防振機構221における複数の弾性ゴム227の弾性変形によって低減することができる。 According to the present embodiment, the side grip 211 is attached to the barrel portion 106 of the gear housing 107 via the vibration isolation mechanism 221. Therefore, during the machining operation by the hammer drill 101, vibration transmitted from the main body 103 to the side grip 211 is transmitted by elastic deformation of the plurality of elastic rubbers 227 in the vibration isolation mechanism 221. Can be reduced.
 本実施の形態においては、球状の弾性ゴム227が、バレル部106の軸線上に配置された内側ゴム受223の係合凹部223aと外側ゴム受225の係合凹部225aにそれぞれ嵌り込まれた状態で径方向に挟持状に保持される構成としている。このような構成とすることで、加工作業時に発生するハンマビット119の長軸方向の振動に対し、弾性ゴム227がハンマビット長軸方向に剪断変形する。すなわち、本実施の形態によれば、剪断変形による振動低減効果が圧縮変形による振動低減効果よりも高いという弾性ゴム227の特性を利用し、サイドグリップ211の振動低減効果を向上することができるため、合理的である。また、弾性ゴム227は、バレル部106の周方向において等間隔で配置された構成としている。このため、バレル部106の長軸方向回りに関してバランスの取れた振動低減作用を得ることができる。 In the present embodiment, the spherical elastic rubber 227 is fitted into the engagement recess 223a of the inner rubber receiver 223 and the engagement recess 225a of the outer rubber receiver 225 disposed on the axis of the barrel portion 106, respectively. Thus, the structure is held in a sandwiched manner in the radial direction. With such a configuration, the elastic rubber 227 shears and deforms in the long axis direction of the hammer bit with respect to the vibration in the long axis direction of the hammer bit 119 generated during the machining operation. That is, according to the present embodiment, the vibration reduction effect of the side grip 211 can be improved by utilizing the characteristic of the elastic rubber 227 that the vibration reduction effect due to shear deformation is higher than the vibration reduction effect due to compression deformation. Is reasonable. Further, the elastic rubber 227 is configured to be arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of the barrel portion 106. For this reason, it is possible to obtain a balanced vibration reducing action with respect to the barrel portion 106 around the major axis direction.
 また、本実施の形態では、防振機構221における複数の弾性ゴム227を、予め一体成形によって隣り合うもの同士が接続部227aを介して互いに円環状に接続された構成としている。このため、複数の弾性ゴム227が一部品化され、部品点数を削減することができる。また、複数の弾性ゴム227が1部品化されることから、弾性ゴム227を内側ゴム受223の外周面に嵌合する(巻き付く)ように取り付けてその状態を維持できる。このため、内側ゴム受223に外側ゴム受225を容易に被せることができ、これによって防振機構221の組立性を向上することができる。 Further, in the present embodiment, the plurality of elastic rubbers 227 in the vibration isolation mechanism 221 are configured such that those adjacent to each other in advance by integral molding are connected to each other in an annular shape via a connection portion 227a. For this reason, the plurality of elastic rubbers 227 are made into one component, and the number of components can be reduced. Further, since the plurality of elastic rubbers 227 are made into one component, the elastic rubber 227 can be attached to be fitted (wrapped) to the outer peripheral surface of the inner rubber receiver 223, and the state can be maintained. For this reason, the inner rubber receiver 223 can be easily covered with the outer rubber receiver 225, whereby the assemblability of the vibration isolation mechanism 221 can be improved.
 なお、第1及び第2の実施形態では、弾性ゴム173,227が球状の場合で説明したが、球状に替えて円柱状としてもよい。
 また、第1の実施形態において、下側の連接部155に外側ゴム受177を設け、カバー部材104に内側ゴム受175を設けたが、下側の連接部155に内側ゴム受175を設け、カバー部材104に外側ゴム受177を設けてもよい。また、第1の実施形態において、上側の防振機構161につき、下側の防振機構171を適用してもよい。
 また、上述した第1および第2の実施形態では、打撃工具の一例としてハンマドリルの場合で説明したが、ハンマビット119に長軸方向の打撃動作のみを行わせるハンマに適用してもよい。
