Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to a power tool, and more particularly to a gardening tool and a power tool. Background Art

[0002] Battery packs are widely used in gardening tools such as chain saws to provide power for the gardening tools. Gardening tools such as chain saws have relatively high power requirements to replace gasoline saws. When the voltage of the battery pack remains unchanged, the higher the power output, the greater the current. However, when the battery pack discharges at a large current, it generates a lot of heat and is prone to trigger over-temperature protection, which severely restricts the power generation capacity of the battery pack. At the same time, the high temperature also affects the use safety of the battery pack, thus affecting the use effect of the gardening tool. Therefore, the heat dissipation of the battery pack has become a bottleneck in its use in gardening tools. Summary of the Utility Model

Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising a..." does not exclude the presence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article or device comprising that element.

[0049] In the present application, the term "and / or" is a relationship describing associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B may represent: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. In addition, in the present application, the character " / " generally represents an "and / or" relationship between the associated objects before and after.

[0050] In this application, the terms "connected", "combined", "coupled", and "mounted" can be direct connections, combinations, couplings, or mountings, or indirect connections, combinations, couplings, or mountings.

For example, such relative terms include at least the degree of error associated with the measurement of a particular value, tolerances resulting from manufacturing, assembly, use, etc. associated with a particular value. Such terms should also be considered to disclose a range defined by the absolute values of two endpoints. The relative term may refer to a plus or minus a certain percentage (such as 1%, 5%, 10% or more) of the indicated value. Numerical values without the use of relative terms should also be disclosed as specific values with tolerances. In addition, when expressing a relative angular positional relationship (such as substantially parallel, substantially perpendicular), "substantially" may refer to a plus or minus a certain number of degrees (such as 1 degree, 5 degrees, 10 degrees or more) based on the indicated angle.

[0052] In this application, those of ordinary skill in the art will understand that the functions performed by a component can be performed by one component, multiple components, one part, or multiple parts. Similarly, the functions performed by a part can also be performed by one part, one component, or a combination of multiple parts.

[0053] In this application, the orientation terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "rear", etc. are described based on the orientation and positional relationship shown in the drawings, and should not be construed as a limitation on the embodiments of this application.

[0054] As Figures 1-7As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a gardening tool, which includes a housing 100, a working head 200, a motor (not shown in the figure), a battery pack connector 300, and a fan 500. The working head 200 is used to perform work. The motor is accommodated in the housing 100 and is used to drive the working head 200 to work. The battery pack connector 300 is used to carry the battery pack 400. The battery pack 400 is detachably coupled to the battery pack connector 300. The battery pack connector 300 is provided on the housing 100. The battery pack connector 300 and the housing 100 can be an integral structure or a split structure, which is not limited.

[0055] The battery pack connector 300 includes a first air inlet 304 and a first air outlet 306. The first air inlet 304 is provided on the joint surface between the battery pack connector 300 and the battery pack 400. The first air inlet 304 and the first air outlet 306 are respectively communicated with the inside and outside of the battery pack connector 300. The fan 500 is provided inside the battery pack connector 300. The fan 500 includes a second air inlet 502. The second air inlet 502 is located downstream of the first air inlet 304 and is communicated with the first air inlet 304. When the battery pack 400 is coupled to the battery pack connector 300, there is a gap between the battery pack 400 and the side of the battery pack connector 300 where the first air inlet 304 is provided. The fan 500 dissipates heat from the battery pack 400.

[0056] The first air inlet 304 and the air outlet form a heat dissipation air path. When the battery pack 400 outputs power, the heat dissipation air flow flows through the outside of the battery pack 400 from the gap, takes away the heat of the battery pack 400 through heat conduction, and then enters the battery pack connector 300 through the first air inlet 304. The hot air flow generated by the battery pack 400 flows in from the first air inlet 304. When the fan 500 does not work, the heat dissipation air flow flows out from the first air outlet 306, thereby dissipating heat from the battery pack 400. When the fan 500 works, the second air inlet 502 receives the heat dissipation air flow from the first air inlet 304. By setting the fan 500, the air flow is promoted, so as to achieve the effects of cooling and ventilation, and realize the fan 500 dissipating heat from the battery pack 400. The battery pack 400 is maintained at a sustainable working temperature, safe and reliable, not easily triggering over-temperature protection, effectively increasing the working time, and ensuring the use safety of the battery pack 400, and further ensuring the use effect of the gardening tool.

[0057] One side of the battery pack 400 facing the battery pack connection base 300 is provided with an air flow outlet 401. The air flow outlet 401 is communicated with the first air inlet 304. The hot air flow of the battery pack 400 itself flows into the first air inlet 304 through the air flow outlet 401, facilitating the discharge of the hot air flow, thereby realizing the heat dissipation of the battery pack 400. The heat dissipation air flow includes the external air flow and the hot air flow of the battery pack 400 itself. The two parts of the air flow flow independently. The first air inlet 304 not only allows the hot air flow generated by the battery pack 400 itself to flow in, but also allows the external heat dissipation air flow flowing through the battery pack 400 in the gap to flow in, respectively dissipating heat from the battery pack 400 and improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0058] In one embodiment, the second air outlet 503 of the fan 500 faces the first air outlet 306, that is, the fan 500 is arranged on the heat dissipation air path. When the fan 500 works, the heat dissipation air flow flows in from the first air inlet 304, flows through the fan 500 and then flows out from the first air outlet 306, thereby dissipating heat from the battery pack 400, reducing the number of air outlets and simplifying the structure.

[0059] The battery pack 400 is inserted into the battery pack connection base 300 along the first direction. The first air outlet 306 is arranged on one side of the battery pack connection base 300 along the first direction. The heat dissipation air flow only flows out to one side in the first direction, avoiding the heat dissipation air flow flowing towards the battery pack 400 and having a good heat dissipation effect. As Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the first direction is the up-and-down direction. The battery pack 400 is installed from top to bottom, and the first air outlet 306 is located at the bottom.

[0060] In other embodiments, a third air outlet (not shown in the figure) is additionally provided on the battery pack connection base 300. The second air outlet 503 of the fan 500 is communicated with the third air outlet. Part of the heat dissipation air flow flows out from the first air outlet 306, and the other part of the heat dissipation air flow flows out through the second air outlet 503 and the third air outlet of the fan 500, increasing the number of air outlets and improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0061] In some embodiments, the distance of the gap is less than 150 mm. Exemplarily, the distance of the gap can be 0, 30 mm, 50 mm, 80 mm, 100 mm or 120 mm, etc., without limitation. The farther the distance between the two is, the larger the heat dissipation air flow carries more heat and flows into the first air inlet 304 from the gap, facilitating heat dissipation. However, if the distance between the two is too large, the overall volume will be too large.

[0062] As Figure 6As shown, in one embodiment, the air flow outlet 401 and the first air inlet 304 are arranged facing each other, which further facilitates the flow of the heat dissipation air flow. The air flow outlet 401 can be directly opposite to the first air inlet 304. Exemplarily, the first air inlet 304 is a plurality of first through holes on the battery pack connector 300, and the air flow outlet 401 is a plurality of second through holes on the housing of the battery pack 400, and the plurality of first through holes and the plurality of second through holes are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. In one embodiment, the air flow outlet 401 and the first air inlet 304 can also be arranged in a staggered manner to meet requirements such as spatial layout.

[0063] In some embodiments, the battery pack connector 300 is provided with a connection tab 303. When the battery pack 400 is connected to the gardening tool, it is electrically connected to the electrode tab of the battery pack 400 through the connection tab 303 to conduct the power supply.

The working head 200 is a cutting element, the working head 200 is located in front of the gardening tool, and the housing 100 is formed with a first gripping portion 101 and a second gripping portion 102 from front to back, which facilitates the operation of the gardening tool. The battery pack connector 300 is provided on the left side of the first gripping portion 101, and the battery pack 400 is connected below the battery pack connector 300. In one embodiment, the first direction is the left-right direction, and the battery pack 400 is inserted into the battery pack connector 300 along the first direction, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the battery pack 400.

[0064] The fan 500 is fixed in the battery pack connector 300 based on the rib 305 and / or the fixing component of the battery pack connector 300. In one embodiment, ribs 305 are provided inside the battery pack connector 300, and the fan 500 is snap-fitted to the ribs 305 to fix the fan 500.

The fan 500 is limited by the limit card seat, and other components inside the battery pack connector 300 are abutted against the fan 500 to fix the fan 500. In one embodiment, the battery pack connector 300 has a housing structure, and the housing structure itself forms a limit card seat adapted to the outer shape of the fan 500, and the housing structure is provided with connection holes.

Optionally, the plug 501 can also be directly connected to the circuit board. The present application does not limit the connection manner between the plug 501 and the circuit board.

[0065] In some embodiments, after the garden tool is started, the fan 500 starts synchronously, and after the garden tool is turned off, the fan 500 turns off synchronously. In some embodiments, after the garden tool is started, the fan 500 starts after a first preset time, and after the garden tool is turned off, the fan 500 turns off synchronously. The first preset time is set according to empirical values to avoid waste of electricity. In some embodiments, after the garden tool is started, the fan 500 starts synchronously, and after the garden tool is turned off, the fan 500 continues to operate for a second preset time before turning off. The second preset time is set according to empirical values to fully dissipate heat from the connecting pole piece 303 and the battery pack 400. In some embodiments, after the garden tool is started, the fan 500 starts after a first preset time, and after the garden tool is turned off, the fan 500 continues to operate for a second preset time before turning off. Optionally, the garden tool and the fan 500 can share a start-stop switch. Optionally, the garden tool and the fan 500 can each use their own start-stop switches.

[0068] In one embodiment, the gardening tool further includes an independent housing added outside the battery pack connector 300. The fan 500 is placed in the independent housing, and the independent housing communicates with the battery pack connector 300. Since the independent housing and the battery pack connector 300 are in a communicating relationship, the independent housing and the battery pack connector 300 form an integral body, forming a battery pack connector 300 including the independent housing. At this time, the fan 500 can also be used to promote the air flow in the battery pack connector 300 and play a role in heat dissipation. Therefore, the battery pack connector 300 defined in the present application not only refers to the battery pack connector 300 itself, but also includes the battery pack connector 300 and any external housing communicating therewith, where the present application does not limit the shape and structure of the external housing.

[0069] As Figures 1-7 shown, this embodiment also provides a power tool, including a housing 100, a working head 200, a motor, and a battery pack connector 300. Among them, the working head 200 is used to perform work. The motor is accommodated in the housing 100 and is used to drive the working head 200 to work. The battery pack connector 300 is provided on the housing 100 and is used to carry the battery pack 400. The battery pack 400 is detachably coupled to the battery pack connector 300, and the battery pack 400 includes an air flow outlet 401.

The first air inlet 304 is in communication with the air flow outlet 401. The hot air flow of the battery pack 400 itself flows into the first air inlet 304 through the air flow outlet 401, then enters the heat dissipation air path through the first air inlet 304, and finally flows out through the first air outlet 306, which facilitates the discharge of the hot air flow in the battery pack 400, thereby realizing the heat dissipation of the battery pack 400. The external air flow and the hot air flow in the battery pack 400 act independently at the same time to dissipate heat from the battery pack 400 respectively, improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0070] A first air inlet 304 is provided on the joint surface between the battery pack connector 300 and the battery pack 400. The first air inlet 304 communicates the inside and outside of the battery pack connector 300.
