Rotary protecting hood of a pneumatic grinder

Abstract

The invention discloses a rotary protecting hood of a pneumatic grinder that comprises a connecting end disposed on a pneumatic grinder body, a grinder wheel disposed on the connecting end, and a protecting hood for sheltering the grinder wheel, wherein the connecting end includes a limit member, and the limit member and the protecting hood include a fixing section and a plurality of fixing holes for defining a fixing relation, and the limit member has a first position for defining a fixing relation with the protecting hood and a second position for releasing the fixing relation, such that the angle of the protecting hood can be adjusted and the protecting hood displaces with respect to the body. With the foregoing measure, a user can adjust the fixing position of the protecting hood according to the grinding position and the angle of a work piece to improve the convenience of operation.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a rotary protecting hood of a pneumatic grinder, and more particularly to a rotary protective hood of a pneumatic grinder that uses a limit member and a protecting hood to constitute fixing and releasing relations. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] In the manufacturing and grinding industry that requires manual operations, a pneumatic grinder is an indispensable tool that features a low failure rate, an easy maintenance, a light weight and a small volume, and an easy and simple operation, etc, and thus the pneumatic grinder is extensively used. The prior art pneumatic grinder usually installs a protecting hold to a body at a position proximate to a grinder wheel for preventing the sparks, grinding bits, or dusts produced during the grinding process from hurting or contaminating the operator. [0003] R.O.C. Patent Publication No. M257263 entitled “Pneumatic grinding tool” discloses a pneumatic grinder that comprises a lon...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a rotary protecting hood for a pneumatic grinder that can protect the workpiece and adjust its position based on the grinding position and angle of the workpiece. The connecting end of the grinder includes a limit member and a protecting hood with fixing holes, allowing for easy adjustment of the protecting hood. The limit member can be positioned to either fix or release the protecting hood, improving the operator's convenience and grinding quality.

Problems solved by technology

However, the protecting hood of the foregoing prior art pneumatic grinding tool is in a fixed form and does not have the function of adjusting the position of the protecting hood.

In a manufacture process, operators are usually forced to change the standing position or direction, or the operating pose to cope with the position or angle for the operation of grinding a work piece, and thus causing inconvenience to operators or making the operation more difficult, and greatly reducing the grinding quality.
