[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] like Figure 1-9 As shown, in order to enable the angle grinder to remove dust, the present invention provides:

[0034] An angle grinder with a dust removal function comprises a grinding mechanism 1, a micro fan 2 and a jet pump 3, wherein the grinding mechanism 1 and the micro fan 2 are detachably connected, the jet pump 3 comprises an input end 3a, an output end 3c and a suction end 3b, and the air outlet of the micro fan 2 is detachably connected to the input end 3a; wherein the grinding mechanism 1 comprises a rotating shaft 1a, both ends of the rotating shaft 1a are exposed outside the housing of the grinding mechanism 1, a transmission part 1a1 is formed at one end of the rotating shaft 1a, and the transmission part 1a1 is detachably connected to the prime mover of the micro fan 2, so that the transmission part 1a1 can transmit the torque that makes the micro fan 2 work to the micro fan 2; a grinding disc 1b, a grinding disc 1b Coaxially connected to the other end of the rotating shaft 1a; a grinding disc cover shell 1c, which is a hollow shell, is in the shape of a superior arc and has an opening at its chord, covers the outer side of the grinding disc 1b and exposes the part of the grinding disc 1b away from the grinding mechanism 1; a dust suction pipe 1d, one end of the dust suction pipe 1d is connected to the interior of the grinding disc cover shell 1c, and the other end of the dust suction pipe 1d is detachably connected to the suction end 3b; when the airflow output by the micro fan 2 flows from the input end 3a to the output end 3c, the suction end 3b generates negative pressure suction, so that the dust inside the grinding disc cover shell 1c flows through the dust suction pipe 1d, the suction end 3b and the output end 3c.

[0035] During the use of the grinding mechanism 1, the rotating shaft 1a rotates at high speed and drives the grinding disc 1b to rotate so that it has cutting performance. At the same time, the transmission part 1a1 drives the fan shaft 2b to rotate so that the micro fan 2 can generate airflow through its outlet wind. When the airflow circulates inside the jet pump 3, negative pressure suction is generated inside the grinding disc cover 1c through the suction end 3b and the dust suction pipe 1d, thereby sucking in the dust generated by the grinding disc 1b and outputting it through the output end 3c. A cloth bag is installed on the output end 3c to collect the dust.

[0036] When the dust removal function is not needed, the dust suction pipe 1d, the micro fan 2 and the jet pump 3 can be removed to obtain an ordinary angle grinder.

[0037] Furthermore, this embodiment provides a structure of a micro fan 2, as described below:

[0038] The micro fan 2 includes a fan housing 2a, a fan shaft 2b and blades 2c. The fan housing 2a is detachably connected to the grinding mechanism 1, and the fan shaft 2b can be rotatably installed inside the fan housing 2a. One end of the fan shaft 2b is exposed to the outside of the fan housing 2a and is detachably connected to the transmission part 1a1. The blades 2c are located inside the fan housing 2a and are coaxially connected to the fan shaft 2b. An air inlet 2a1 and an air outlet 2a2 are formed on the fan housing 2a, and the air outlet 2a2 is detachably connected to the input end 3a.

[0039] It should also be noted that:

[0040] The micro fan 2 also includes a bearing 2d, through which the fan shaft 2b is rotatably connected to the fan housing 2a, and the fan blades 2c and the bearing 2d are connected to the fan shaft 2b via a step formed on the fan shaft 2b and a retaining spring installed on the fan shaft 2b.

[0041] Furthermore, in order to reduce the volume of the micro fan 2:

[0042] The blades 2c are centrifugal blades.

[0043] Correspondingly, the fan housing 2a is in the shape of a hollow cylinder, the air inlet 2a1 is arranged on one end face of the fan housing 2a, the air inlet 2a1 is composed of a plurality of long strip through holes evenly distributed around the axis of the fan housing 2a, the air outlet 2a2 is arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the fan housing 2a and is parallel to a radial surface of the fan housing 2a, the air outlet 2a2 is a rectangular tube formed on one side of the outer peripheral surface of the fan housing 2a, the fan blades 2c axially inhale air through the air inlet 2a1 and radially output airflow through the air outlet 2a2.

[0044] If axial flow blades are used as the blades 2c, the axial length of the fan housing 2a will be too long, causing the volume of the micro fan 2 to be too large.

[0045] Further, in order to achieve the purpose of detachably connecting the fan housing 2a and the grinding mechanism 1:

[0046] A nut 1e is installed on the outside of the shell of the grinding mechanism 1. The nut 1e is coaxial with the rotating shaft 1a. A threaded barrel 2a3 is formed on the fan shell 2a and is coaxially sleeved on the outside of the fan shaft 2b. The threaded barrel 2a3 can be screwed together with the nut 1e. The inner diameter of the threaded barrel 2a3 is greater than the outer diameter of the fan shaft 2b. When the threaded barrel 2a3 is screwed together with the nut 1e, the transmission part 1a1 is connected to the fan shaft 2b.

[0047] Furthermore, this embodiment provides an implementation method in which the transmission part 1a1 is transmission-connected to the fan shaft 2b:

[0048] The transmission part 1a1 is in the shape of a blind hole with edges. The end of the fan shaft 2b extending outside the fan housing 2a is formed with a clamping part 2b1. The clamping part 2b1 is in the shape of a column with edges. The transmission part 1a1 and the clamping part 2b1 are clearance-fitted.

[0049] Specifically, the transmission part 1a1 is an internal hexagonal hole, and the engaging part 2b1 is an external hexagonal column. When connecting the micro-blower 2 and the grinding mechanism 1, the engaging part 2b1 is first aligned with the transmission part 1a1 and inserted therein, and then the threaded barrel 2a3 is aligned with the nut 1e and rotated to tighten. During the tightening process, the engaging part 2b1 gradually penetrates into the interior of the transmission part 1a1. When the threaded barrel 2a3 and the nut 1e are tightened, the engaging part 2b1 and the transmission part 1a1 are tightly engaged to achieve the function of transmitting torque.

[0050] Furthermore, in order to prevent the rotating shaft 1a and the transmission part 1a1 from harming the user when the dust removal function is not used:

[0051] The grinding mechanism 1 further comprises a plug 1f, which can be threadedly connected with the nut 1e.

[0052] Although the transmission part 1a1 is exposed on the outside of the grinding mechanism 1, the transmission part 1a1 is sunken in a blind hole formed on the shell of the grinding mechanism 1, so that when the plug 1f is screwed with the nut 1e, the plug 1f blocks the blind hole exposing the transmission part 1a1, so that the transmission part 1a1 will not come into contact with the operator during use.

[0053] Further:

[0054] The grinding plate cover 1c includes an upper cover plate 1c1 and a lower cover plate 1c3. The upper cover plate 1c1 and the lower cover plate 1c3 are both arc-shaped plates. The edge of the upper cover plate 1c1 extends axially and forms a baffle 1c2 that covers the periphery of the grinding plate 1b. The upper cover plate 1c1 is detachably connected to the grinding mechanism 1, and the baffle 1c2 and the lower cover plate 1c3 are detachably connected.

[0055] In this embodiment, a flange 1c4 is radially extended from the edge of the baffle 1c2, and a groove 1c5 is formed on the lower cover plate 1c3 and is frictionally connected to the flange 1c4. When the groove 1c5 is engaged with the flange 1c4, the upper cover plate 1c1, the baffle 1c2 and the lower cover plate 1c3 form a superior arc bow shell with an opening at the chord.

[0056] The baffle 1c2 can also be connected to the lower cover 1c3 in other ways, such as bolt connection, snap connection, etc.

[0057] Further:

[0058] A vacuum mixing chamber 3e and an expansion chamber 3f are formed inside the jet pump 3. The vacuum mixing chamber 3e is connected to the suction end 3b, and the expansion chamber 3f is connected to the vacuum mixing chamber 3e and the output end 3c. A nozzle 3d is formed inside the vacuum mixing chamber 3e. The inlet of the nozzle 3d is connected to the input end 3a, and the outlet of the nozzle 3d is toward the output end 3c and close to the expansion chamber 3f. The expansion chamber 3f is in the shape of a critical flow Venturi nozzle.

[0059] An airflow with a certain pressure is input from the input end 3a and then ejected through the nozzle 3d at a position inside the vacuum mixing chamber 3e near the expansion chamber 3f. Then the airflow is ejected at a high speed through the expansion chamber 3f. The static pressure energy is partially converted into kinetic energy, and a vacuum is formed in the vacuum mixing chamber 3e, so that the suction end 3b generates suction. The suction end 3b sucks in dust through the dust suction pipe 1d, so that it is ejected through the expansion chamber 3f along with the high-speed airflow.

[0060] Furthermore, in order to make the airflow transmitted by the micro fan 2 through the input end 3a have a certain pressure:

[0061] A boosting chamber 3g is formed inside the jet pump 3. The boosting chamber 3g is a conical chamber. The boosting chamber 3g connects the input end 3a and the nozzle 3d. The inner diameter of the boosting chamber 3g gradually decreases from the input end 3a toward the nozzle 3d.

[0062] When the airflow passes through the boost chamber 3g with a gradually decreasing inner diameter, the pressure gradually increases, and finally forms an airflow with a certain pressure and then sprays out through the nozzle 3d.

[0063] Further:

[0064] At least one annular flange 3c1 is formed on the outer wall of the output end 3c.

[0065] The annular flange 3c1 can be used to provide friction when connecting the output end 3c and the bellows, or to provide a positioning structure for tying with a cable tie when connecting the output end 3c and the cloth bag. The above embodiments are only exemplary embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present invention within the essence and protection scope of the present invention, and such modifications or equivalent substitutions should also be deemed to fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
