Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described can be combined in a suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.
[0037] See Figures 1 to 5 , the embodiment of the present application discloses an electric screwdriver, which includes a housing 100, a clamping portion 200, a main shaft 300, and a torque adjustment structure.
[0038] Specifically, at least a part of the clamping portion 200 is disposed inside the housing 100. The clamping portion 200 has a clamping space, and the main shaft 300 is disposed inside the clamping space; the torque adjustment structure includes a first component 510, a second component 520, and a torque spring 530. Both the first component 510 and the second component 520 are sleeved on the outer periphery of the clamping portion 200 and are sequentially arranged along the axial direction of the main shaft 300. Among them, the first component 510 is threadedly connected to the clamping portion 200, and the first component 510 is used to push the second component 520 to move along the axial direction of the main shaft 300. One end of the torque spring 530 abuts against the side of the second component 520 away from the first component 510, and the other end of the torque spring 530 abuts against the housing 100.
[0039] In the embodiment of the present application, the torque spring 530 abuts against one side surface of the second component 520, and the other side surface of the second component 520 abuts against the first component 510. When adjusting the torque of the electric screwdriver, by rotating the first component 510, the second component 520 can be pushed to move along the axial direction of the main shaft 300. During the process of adjusting the torque, the second component 520 is disposed between the first component 510 and the torque spring 530, and the first component 510 can rotate relative to the second component 520. Thus, when the spring is compressed, the frictional force of the torque spring 530 on the second component 520 does not directly act on the first component 510, which can facilitate the rotation of the first component 510, thereby reducing the resistance during torque adjustment, facilitating the smoothness of torque adjustment, and thus improving the convenience of torque adjustment.
[0040] In some embodiments of the present application, the abutting surface of the second component 520 and the first component 510 is a smooth surface. In this way, the friction coefficient between the first component 510 and the second component 520 can be reduced, and when the acting force of the torque spring 530 on the second component 520 increases, it is also convenient for the first component 510 and the second component 520 to rotate relative to each other.
[0041] It should be understood that since the second component 520 is in direct contact with the torque spring 530, when the acting force of the torque spring 530 on the second component 520 is relatively large, the second component 520 and the torque spring 530 can be in a relatively stationary state, while the first component 510 and the second component 520 can rotate relative to each other, that is, the first component 510 rotates relative to the clamping part. Since the first component 510 is threadedly connected to the clamping part, in this way, the relative position of the first component 510 in the clamping part can be changed, so that the torque spring 530 is compressed or extended.
[0042] It should be noted that the end face of the first component 510 close to the second component 520 is denoted as the first surface, and the end face of the second component 520 close to the first component 510 is denoted as the second surface, and the first surface abuts against the second surface. Among them, the first surface can be a flat surface, a curved surface, a stepped surface or other combined end faces; at the same time, the second surface matches the first surface.
[0043] In some embodiments of the present application, refer to Figure 4 , a positioning portion 521 is provided on one side of the second component 520 close to the torque spring 530. The positioning portion 521 at least partially extends along the axial direction of the main shaft 300 towards the side of the torque spring 530, and the positioning portion 521 is located inside the torque spring 530. The positioning portion 521 can limit the torque spring 530 to the outer periphery of the positioning portion 521, which helps to ensure the concentricity of the torque spring 530 and the main shaft 300, so as to ensure uniform force at each position in the circumferential direction of the second component 520, which is beneficial to further improving the smoothness of torque adjustment.
[0044] In some embodiments of the present application, refer to Figures 1 to 5 , the electric screwdriver further includes a handle cap 400. The handle cap 400 is connected to the housing 100, and the inner wall of the handle cap 400 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the torque adjustment structure. The handle cap 400 is used to drive the torque adjustment structure to rotate.
[0045] Furthermore, the handle cap 400 is snap-connected to the housing 100, and the handle cap 400 can rotate circumferentially relative to the housing 100.
[0046] In a possible implementation, a clamping groove is provided on the inner wall of the housing 100. One end of the handle cap 400 connected to the housing 100 is stepped and provided with a clamping structure that cooperates with the aforementioned clamping groove. Among them, the clamping structure can rotate circumferentially within the clamping groove. Among them, the handle cap 400 can rotate circumferentially along the main shaft 300, but cannot move axially along the main shaft 300.
[0047] In some other implementations, the handle cap 400 can also be configured to be rotatable relative to the housing 100 and capable of moving axially along the main shaft 300. For example, the housing 100 is threadedly connected to the handle cap 400.
[0048] In some embodiments of the present application, a protrusion 410 is provided on the outer periphery of the handle cap 400. In this way, the friction of the handle 110 sleeve can be increased, facilitating the rotation of the handle cap 400.
[0049] Further, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the protrusions 410 are provided at intervals along the axial direction of the handle cap 400. Specifically, there are multiple protrusions 410, and the multiple protrusions 410 are provided at intervals along the circumferential direction of the handle cap 400 on the outer wall of the handle cap 400. In this way, the friction of the handle cap 400 can be increased, facilitating the rotation of the handle cap 400.
[0050] In some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 4 , the electric screwdriver further includes a driving device for driving the main shaft 300 to rotate. In practical applications, the driving device can specifically be a motor 610.
[0051] In some embodiments of the present application, the electric screwdriver further includes a reduction mechanism 620, and the reduction mechanism 620 connects the output end of the driving device and the main shaft 300. Specifically, the driving device includes a motor 610, the input end of the reduction mechanism 620 is connected to the output end of the motor 610, the output end of the reduction mechanism 620 is connected to the clamping part through a transmission structure, the motor 610 drives the clamping part to rotate through the reduction mechanism 620, and the clamping part drives the main shaft 300 to rotate.
[0052] In one implementation, the output end of the reduction mechanism 620 is connected to the clamping part 200, and the reduction mechanism 620 drives the clamping part 200 to rotate to drive the main shaft 300 to rotate.
[0053] In this embodiment, the main shaft 300 is connected with a tool bit for cooperating with a screw, and the main shaft 300 drives the tool bit to rotate to tighten or loosen the screw.
[0054] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the housing 100 is provided with a handle 110 and a switch 120. The handle 110 is used to facilitate the user to hold the electric screwdriver, and the switch 120 is used to control the rotation of the electric screwdriver.
