[0040] To fully understand the present application, detailed steps and detailed structures will be presented in the following description to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application. The preferred embodiments of the present application are described in detail below. However, in addition to these detailed descriptions, the present application may have other embodiments.
[0041] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a power tool, including an annular gearbox 10, a main housing 20, a speed-changing gear ring (not shown in the figure), and a swing frame 30.
[0042] Among them, the annular gearbox 10 has two relatively arranged slot holes 110, the shape of the slot holes 110 is a kidney-shaped hole, and the shape of the slot holes 110 can also be other shapes, which are not specifically limited in the embodiments of the present application.
[0043] The main housing 20 is sleeved outside the ring gearbox 10. The outside of the ring gearbox 10 and the inside of the main housing 20 enclose a first space, and the slot hole 110 communicates with the first space. The swing frame 30 is located in the first space, surrounds the outside of the ring gearbox 10, and the swing frame 30 penetrates through the slot hole 110 and is connected to the speed change gear ring. The swing frame 30 moves in the slot hole 110 along the axial direction of the speed change gear ring, thereby driving the speed change gear ring to achieve axial movement and realizing high and low speed switching.
[0044] As Figure 2 shown, the inner wall of the main housing 20 is provided with a first rib 210 and a second rib 220. The first rib 210 and the second rib 220 enclose a first receiving groove 20a for storing the grease oozing from the slot hole 110. The first rib 210 is opposite to the slot hole 110 and there is a gap between the first rib 210 and the swing frame 30.
[0045] The operation of the gears in the ring gearbox 10 causes the gear grease to ooze out from the slot hole 110. The first receiving groove 20a can store the oozing grease. In addition, during the operation of the gears in the ring gearbox 10, part of the grease in the first receiving groove 20a will also return to the ring gearbox 10. The swing frame 30 may be deformed after long-term use. The deformed swing frame 30 moves towards the main housing 20. The first rib 210 can support the deformed swing frame 30, thereby greatly reducing the occurrence of gear shifting during the use of the power tool.
[0046] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the second rib 220 includes a first horizontal rib 221, a first vertical rib 222 and a second vertical rib 223. The first horizontal rib 221 is disposed opposite to the first rib 210, the first vertical rib 222 is disposed opposite to the second vertical rib 223, and the surfaces of the first vertical rib 222 and the second vertical rib 223 contact the outer wall surface of the ring gearbox 10.
[0047] The ring gearbox 10 is provided with a first mounting rib 120 and a second mounting rib 130 along its circumferential direction. The surface of the first mounting rib 120 contacts the surface of the first vertical rib 222, and the surface of the second mounting rib 130 contacts the surface of the second vertical rib 223.
[0048] The first mounting rib 120 and the second mounting rib 130 are located at the edge of the outside of the ring gearbox 10. The surfaces of the first mounting rib 120 and the second mounting rib 130 contact the surfaces of the first vertical rib 222 and the second vertical rib 223 respectively, forming an approximately closed first space for accommodating the swing frame 30, thereby effectively reducing the amount of grease oozing. At the same time, during use, part of the flowing grease returns to the ring gearbox 10.
[0049] In an alternative embodiment, asFigure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in Figure 2 , a third rib 230 is further provided on the inner wall of the main housing 20. The third rib 230 and the first horizontal rib 221 are respectively located on both sides of the first rib 210. The third rib 230, the first rib 210, the first vertical rib 222 and the second vertical rib 223 enclose a second receiving groove 20b for receiving grease.
[0050] In the embodiment of the present application, the first receiving groove 20a and the second receiving groove 20b correspond to both sides of the slot hole 110 on the annular gearbox 10, which can improve the collection effect of the grease oozing from the slot hole 110, and further reduce the amount of grease oozing.
[0051] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the edge of the third rib 230 contacts or abuts against the outer wall of the annular gearbox 10. Figure 3 The cross-sectional schematic diagrams of the main housing 20, the annular gearbox 10 and the swing frame 30 are shown in Figure 3 . The third rib 230 does not correspond to the swing frame 30. Therefore, the contact or abutment of the third rib 230 against the outer wall of the annular gearbox 10 can improve the sealing performance of the first space.
[0052] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 4 shown, the power tool further includes a handle housing 40. The handle housing 40 is connected to the main housing 20, and the distances between the third rib 230, the first rib 210, the first horizontal rib 221 and the handle housing 40 increase in sequence.
[0053] The operator holds the handle housing 40 during the use of the power tool. During the use of the power tool, the main housing 20 is above the handle housing 40, and under the action of gravity, the grease flows towards the handle direction. The distance between the third rib 230 and the handle housing 40 is the closest, that is, during the use of the power tool, the third rib 230 is located below the first rib 210 and the first horizontal rib 221. The contact or abutment of the third rib 230 against the outer wall of the annular gearbox 10 can greatly reduce the overflow of the grease in the first receiving groove 20a and the second receiving groove 20b.
[0054] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 5 shown, a reinforcing rib 240 is further provided on the inner wall of the main housing 20. The reinforcing rib 240 is connected to the ends of the first horizontal rib 221, the first rib 210 and the third rib 230, and the reinforcing rib 240 is connected between the first horizontal rib 221 and the second vertical rib 223.
[0055] Figure 5As shown, the thickness by which the second vertical rib 223 protrudes from the inner wall of the main housing 20 is thinner than the thickness by which the first vertical rib 222 protrudes from the inner wall of the main housing 20. The reinforcing rib 240 connected to the second vertical rib 223 can improve the structural strength.
[0056] The reinforcing rib 240 protrudes from the surface of the second vertical rib 223. The side wall of the reinforcing rib 240 contacts or abuts against the side wall of the second mounting rib 130 of the annular gearbox 10, improving the sealing of the first space, and thus reducing the overflow of grease in the first receiving groove 20a and the second receiving groove 20b.
[0057] In the first alternative embodiment, the first rib 210, the first horizontal rib 221, and the third rib 230 are arranged in parallel, and are all parallel to the axis direction of the slot hole 110 of the annular gearbox 10, that is, parallel to the moving direction of the swing frame 30. In this way, it is easier to collect the grease oozing from the slot hole 110.
[0058] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 6 shown, the width of the first rib 210, that is Figure 6 L1 shown in Figure 6 is greater than the outer diameter of the swing frame 30, that is
[0059] L2 shown in
[0060] It should be understood that the above embodiments are all exemplary and do not cover all possible implementation manners included in the claims. Without departing from the scope of the present disclosure, various deformations and changes can be made on the basis of the above embodiments. Similarly, the various technical features of the above embodiments can be arbitrarily combined to form additional embodiments of the present application that may not be clearly described. Therefore, the above embodiments only represent several implementation manners of the present application and do not limit the protection scope of the patent of the present application.
