[0003] The impact tool in the prior art usually includes a driver, an impact mechanism and a gear assembly. The impact mechanism includes a drive shaft. The drive shaft is provided with a gear that is transmission-connected to the gear assembly. The driver drives the gear to rotate through the gear assembly to realize the rotation of the drive shaft. In order to ensure that the rotation of the drive shaft remains stable, a bearing is installed in the housing. The end of the drive shaft extends toward the bearing and is inserted into the inner ring of the bearing. This design will cause a gap between the bearing and the gear, thereby increasing the overall length of the drive shaft, thereby increasing the size of the impact tool. In actual use, the disassembly space of most fasteners is relatively small. In order to facilitate the operation of the impact tool in a narrow space, an impact tool with a small size and high impact force is required. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem that the existing impact tools are not suitable for narrow spaces. To this end, an angular impact tool is provided, which can make the overall structure more compact and suitable for narrow spaces.
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

The impact mechanism comprises a driving shaft, and a hammer and anvil rotating with the driving shaft. The anvil is connected to the end of the driving shaft and extends out of the shell. The end of the driving shaft away from the anvil is connected to a first gear, which is transmission-connected to the gear assembly. A first mounting groove is arranged in the middle of the first gear. The shell has a support member, which is provided with a first protrusion extending into the first mounting groove.

[0032] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a cavity for installing a gear assembly and an impact mechanism is formed inside the head shell 12, and the cavity forms an opening on one of the side walls of the head shell 12.

[0033] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the gear assembly in this embodiment includes an intermediate shaft 31 and a transmission shaft 32, wherein the intermediate shaft 31 is transmission-connected with the output shaft 21 of the driver 2, a bevel gear is provided at the end of the intermediate shaft 31 away from the output shaft 21, and a bevel gear is also fixed to the outer peripheral side of the transmission shaft 32, the bevel gear of the intermediate shaft 31 and the bevel gear of the transmission shaft 32 are meshed with each other, a second gear 33 is provided at the end of the transmission shaft 32, and the second gear 33 and the first gear 42 are meshed with each other, after the driver 2 is started, the intermediate shaft 31 is driven to rotate, the intermediate shaft 31 drives the transmission shaft 32 to rotate through the bevel gear, and the transmission shaft 32 drives the drive shaft 41 to rotate through the second gear 33 and the first gear 42.
[0034] In this embodiment, the drive shaft 41 has a second rotation axis 45, and the drive shaft 41 rotates around the second rotation axis. The intermediate shaft 31 has a third rotation axis 311, and the intermediate shaft 31 rotates around the third rotation axis 311.
