Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0042] Please see Figures 1-8This utility model provides a technical solution: a structure for quick-change protective covers, including a cutting cover 1, which is used to wrap the grinding cover 2 of an angle grinder inside. The cutting cover 1 has a first arc-shaped outer shell 101, an arc-shaped plate 102, and a first outer baffle 103. The arc-shaped plate 102 and the outer baffle 103 are located on both sides of the arc-shaped outer shell 101 to form a semi-cylindrical wrapping, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the area of ​​the first outer baffle 103 is larger than the area of ​​the arc plate 102, and a semi-circular opening is provided in the middle of the first outer baffle 103 for wrapping the output end of the angle grinder.

[0043] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, the cutting cover 1 is snapped onto the outside of the grinding cover 2. When it is necessary to install or remove the cutting cover 1, the cutting cover 1 can be directly removed from the grinding cover 2.

[0044] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, both ends of the arc-shaped outer shell 101 are provided with elastic fixing buckles 1011. The elastic fixing buckles 1011 are used to engage with both ends of the grinding cover 2. In specific installation, such as... Figure 9 As shown, first, one of the elastic fixing buckles 1011 is fastened to one end of the grinding cover 2, then the cutting cover 1 is rotated downwards to the other end with that end as the center, and then the other elastic fixing buckle 1011 is fastened to the other end of the grinding cover 2.

[0045] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, at least one mounting hole 1021 is provided on the surface of the arc plate 102. An elastic support 4 is installed in the mounting hole. The elastic support 4 is located in the mounting hole 1021. One end of the elastic support 4 abuts against the surface of the grinding cover 2. The cutting cover 1 has an elastic support 4 in the axial direction, which can compensate for the assembly gap caused by the tolerance of the stamping process of the cutting cover 1 and the grinding cover 2, so as to ensure effective assembly of the two and thus ensure reliable assembly.

[0046] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, the elastic support member 4 is I-shaped and made of rubber or silicone.

[0047] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, the grinding cover 2 has a second arc-shaped outer shell 201, a second outer baffle 202 and an arc-shaped mounting plate 203. The second outer baffle 202 is located on one side of the second arc-shaped outer shell 201, and the arc-shaped mounting plate 203 is located in the middle of the second outer baffle 202. After the cutting cover 1 and the grinding cover 2 are assembled, they form a hollow semi-cylindrical structure for wrapping the grinding disc of the angle grinder.

[0048] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, a locking mechanism 3 is provided on the arc-shaped mounting plate. The grinding cover 2 is fixed to the angle grinder by the locking mechanism 3, and the locking mechanism 3 enables the quick replacement of the grinding cover 2.

[0049] In a specific embodiment of this utility model, the locking mechanism 3 includes a locking clamp 301. A threaded post 304 is movably inserted through a mounting portion of the locking clamp 301. A limit block 306 is fixed to one end of the threaded post 304, and a nut 303 is threadedly connected to the other end of the threaded post 304. A limit wrench 305 is pivotally connected to the limit block 306. The limit wrench 305 has a protrusion and a flat portion, which form a smooth surface. By operating the limit wrench 305, the protrusion can press against the mounting portion of the locking clamp 301. A first washer 308 is fitted on the threaded post 304, and a second washer 309 is fitted on the limiting block 306. A rotating shaft 307 is provided on the limiting block 306, and the rotating shaft 307 moves through the limiting wrench 305. It is worth noting that an anti-slip pad 302 is fixed on the inner wall of the locking clamp 301. The anti-slip pad 302 is used for anti-slip. The anti-slip pad 302 can be made of rubber or silicone, and anti-slip protrusions are provided on the anti-slip pad 302. It is also worth noting that the limiting block 306 has a cuboid structure and slides through one of the mounting parts.

[0050] This utility model allows adjustment of the distance between the two mounting parts of the locking clamp 301 via the nut 303. When the limit wrench 305 is opened, the locking clamp 301 can be removed from the angle grinder; when the limit wrench 305 is engaged, as... Figure 7 As shown, the two mounting parts continue to move closer together, and the locking clamp 301 grips the angle grinder, thus achieving locking. The grinding cover 2 can be quickly replaced simply by moving the limit wrench 305.

[0051] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
