[0027] The present application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments:
[0028] Embodiment 1:
[0029] Referring to Figures 1-6 An angle grinder and its motor, comprising a shell 1, a reducer 2, a driving motor 3, a transmission device 4 and a position sensing device 5, the reducer 2, the driving motor 3 and the transmission device 4 are arranged in the shell 1, the reducer 2 housing is circular design, and is rotatably arranged in the shell 1, and the input end and the output end are arranged thereon, the input end is power connected with the transmission device 4, and the output end is used to install the grinding piece.
[0030] Wherein when the shell of the speed reducer 2 is fixed, the power input from the input end is output from the output end to drive the polishing piece to rotate, and when the shell of the speed reducer 2 is unlocked, the power input from the input end directly drives the speed reducer 2 to rotate as a whole, and the speed reduction assembly inside the speed reducer 2 does not work for power transmission.
[0031] The shell 1 is also provided with a guide shaft 11, which is a hexagonal shaft. The transmission device 4 includes a locking block 41 and a transmission gear set 42. The locking block 41 is slidingly arranged on the guide shaft 11, and a first elastic member 12 is sleeved on the guide shaft 11. One end of the first elastic member 12 abuts against the mounting plate at the rear end of the guide shaft 11, and the other end abuts against the locking block 41. A plurality of grooves 21 are uniformly formed in the circumference of the shell of the speed reducer 2. The front end of the locking block 41 is provided with a locking head 413, which is adapted to the grooves 21. Under the action of the first elastic member 12, the locking head 413 elastically abuts against the grooves 21, thereby elastically locking the shell of the speed reducer 2 to enable it to transmit power. The locking head 413 is slidingly arranged left and right, and an inclined chamfer is arranged around the contact surface of the locking head 413 and the grooves 21, thereby enabling the locking head 413 to slide out of the grooves 21.
[0032] The driving motor 3 includes an energy-saving motor, which is a double-shaft energy-saving motor. The energy-saving motor is fixedly arranged in the shell 1, and a dust cover 32 is sleeved on the energy-saving motor. The front and rear shafts of the energy-saving motor are both rotatably arranged on the dust cover 32. A first fan blade 33 is arranged on the rear shaft of the energy-saving motor and located outside the dust cover 32. A second fan blade 34 is arranged on the front shaft of the energy-saving motor and located inside the dust cover 32. When the energy-saving motor rotates, the first fan blade 33 and the second fan blade 34 rotate synchronously. The first fan blade 33 blows air towards the dust cover 32, and the second fan blade 34 blows the air inside the dust cover 32 out of the front end of the dust cover 32, thereby circulating the air inside the dust cover 32. This reduces the obstruction of the dust cover to the air flow, enables the driving motor 3 to quickly dissipate heat and prevent dust from entering the internal energy-saving motor, and enables the driving motor 3 to be normally used in harsh environments.
[0033] A first gear 31 is slidingly arranged on the front shaft of the energy-saving motor and located outside the dust cover 32. An annular groove 311 is formed in the first gear 31. An annular buckle 411 is arranged on the locking block 41 and arranged in the annular groove 311 of the first gear 31. When the locking block 41 moves forward and backward, the first gear 31 moves forward and backward together. Since the annular groove 311 and the annular buckle 411 are circular in design, the rotation of the first gear 31 does not affect the locking block 41.
[0034] Wherein the locking head 413 of the locking block 41 is on the top of the groove 21, the outer shell of the speed reducer 2 is elastically locked, at this time the first gear 31 is engaged with the gear in the transmission gear set 42, the transmission gear set 42 is in power connection with the input end on the speed reducer 2, so the driving motor 3 rotates, and the power transmission of the transmission gear set 42 drives the output end of the speed reducer 2 to rotate, that is, drives the polishing piece to rotate.
[0035] When the polishing piece is stuck during rotation, the operator holds the shell 1 of the polishing device, and then has a limiting force on the shell 1. When the sticking occurs, the polishing piece stops rotating, and the speed reducer 2 as a whole generates a larger torsional force. When the torsional force is greater than the frictional force of the locking block 41 on the outer shell, the outer shell of the speed reducer 2 rotates under the action of the torsional force, the groove 21 on the outer shell moves out of the position where the locking block 41 is located, and then the locking block 41 moves backward, driving the first gear 31 to move backward together, so that the first gear 31 is disengaged from the gear on the transmission gear set 42, and then the power transmission is disconnected, so that the driving force for driving the polishing piece to rotate disappears, thereby achieving the function of preventing the operator from being twisted.
[0036] The shell 1 is provided with a holding portion 14, the position sensing device 5 includes a control unit and an identification unit, the identification unit includes a switch element, the switch element is a photoelectric sensor or a press sensor, a plurality of switch elements are uniformly laid on the holding portion 14 in sequence, and each switch element has an independent position code. When the operator holds the holding portion 14, the photoelectric sensor at the holding position is blocked or the press sensor is pressed, and then the sensor that recognizes the signal transmits the signal to the control unit. The control unit compares the signal position with the original stored signal position to determine which position of the signal recognition area is located in the signal collection area. The other end of the guide shaft 11 is provided with an electromagnet 13, that is, the end close to the speed reducer 2. The locking block 41 is provided with a magnetic attraction element 412. The electromagnet 13 is energized to provide a magnetic attraction force to the magnetic attraction element 412, thereby increasing the pressure of the locking block 41 on the groove 21. The greater the pressure, the greater the friction between the locking block 41 and the groove 21.
[0037] The operator holds the angle grinding device as a force point, the center of the polishing piece as a rotating point, and the polishing position of the edge of the polishing piece as a force point, forming a lever. When the polishing piece is stuck, the lever force is reversed, and the position point of the operator holding the angle grinding device is the force point. Therefore, under the action of the lever, when the polishing piece is stuck, the farther away from the center of the polishing piece, the greater the swing force of the polishing device on the hand, and thus it is easier to be injured. Therefore, the disengagement torque needs to be adjusted according to the different holding positions of the operator, and the operator is further protected.
[0038] Wherein the position sensing device 5 identifies the position of the operator holding, the control unit compares the holding position first signal source with the original stored signal position, and according to the judgment of the holding position, the control unit stores the current size corresponding to each signal position, and then automatically matches the current of the electromagnet 13 according to the position of the operator holding. The farther away from the speed reducer 2, the greater the corresponding current, and the farther away from the speed reducer 2, the smaller the friction of the locking block 41 to the groove 21, and the farther away from the speed reducer 2, the smaller the torque of the operator holding, thereby protecting the operator.
[0039] The working principle or method of use is as follows:
[0040] In the initial state, the locking head 413 is in contact with the groove 21, and the outer shell of the speed reducer 2 is elastically locked. At this time, the first gear 31 is engaged with the gear in the transmission gear set 42, and the transmission gear set 42 is in power connection with the input end of the speed reducer 2. Therefore, the driving motor 3 rotates, and the power transmission of the transmission gear set 42 drives the output end of the speed reducer 2 to rotate, that is, the polishing piece rotates.
[0041] At this time, the device is started, that is, the driving motor 3 and the electromagnet 13 are powered on, and the operator holds the shell 1 to polish or cut the workpiece. The sensing device 5 identifies the position of the operator holding, and the control unit automatically matches the current of the electromagnet 13 according to the position of the operator holding. The farther away from the speed reducer 2, the greater the corresponding current, and the farther away from the speed reducer 2, the smaller the friction of the locking block 41 to the groove 21.
[0042] When the jam occurs, the polishing piece stops rotating, and at this time the speed reducer 2 generates a large torque as a whole. When the torque is greater than the friction of the locking block 41 to the outer shell, the outer shell of the speed reducer 2 rotates under the action of the torque, and the groove 21 on the outer shell rotates out of the position of the locking block 41. At this time, the outer shell of the speed reducer 2 rotates, and the torque generated by the jam disappears with the rotation of the outer shell of the speed reducer 2, thereby protecting the operator and achieving the function of preventing the torque.
[0043] At the same time, the device automatically adjusts the torque of the operator holding, and the farther away from the speed reducer 2, the smaller the torque, thereby further protecting the operator.
[0044] Example 2:
[0045] Compared with example 1, the difference is that the electromagnet 13 and the control unit are the same. See Figures 1-5 and Figure 7The electromagnet 13 can generate different magnetic poles after passing positive and reverse current, and the control unit can control the current direction input to the electromagnet 13. A press switch 15 is arranged below the guide shaft 11. When the locking block 41 slides out of the ring groove 311, the locking block 41 presses the press switch 15 to control the power-off of the driving motor 3, so as to ensure that the driving motor 3 no longer provides power to the speed reducer 2, further improving the safety of the lifting device. When the press switch 13 is pressed, the control unit controls the input of reverse current to the electromagnet 13, so that the electromagnet 13 generates a reverse magnetic pole, and the magnetic attraction of the magnetic attraction piece 412 becomes magnetic repulsion. The current is the maximum, and the magnetic repulsion is sufficient to deform the first elastic member 12 and push the locking block 41 away from the recess 21.
[0046] After the locking block 41, the driving motor 3 is powered off for the first time, and the locking block 41 is separated from the recess 21 under the action of the magnetic force, so as to automatically unlock the shell of the speed reducer 2, and ensure that the subsequent state is in the unlocked state after the first separation.
[0047] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit it; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments can be modified, or some technical features can be replaced by equivalents; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
