AI Technical Summary
During the assembly of power tools, the sealing ring is prone to detaching from the back cover, which increases the assembly difficulty. Furthermore, the interference fit between the sealing ring and the back cover causes the sealing ring to bounce back, further increasing the assembly difficulty.
In the gearbox of a power tool, a first connection structure and a second connection structure are designed so that the end cover and the gearbox body can be detachably connected. The sealing ring is pressed against the limiting end face of the gearbox body by the flange section to prevent the sealing ring from falling off. At the same time, the second connection structure protrudes from the cover section to prevent the sealing ring from falling off during the assembly process.
This achieves a stable connection between the end cap and the housing, preventing the sealing ring from shifting or being damaged during assembly, reducing assembly difficulty, and simplifying the operation process.

[0048] In this utility model, "front" and "rear" refer to... Figures 1 to 3 The markings in the text shall prevail.
[0049] The following is based on Figures 1 to 5 This utility model describes the power tool in detail.
[0050] In this embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the power tool 100 includes a gearbox 1, a reduction mechanism 2, a spindle 4, a motor 5, an impact mechanism 7, and an output shaft 8. The reduction mechanism 2 is located in the gearbox 1. The impact mechanism 7 includes an impact block 71, a spring 72, and a ball bearing 73. The impact block 71 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the spindle 4. The inner wall of the impact block 71 has a first guide groove (not shown in the figure), and the outer wall of the spindle 4 has a second guide groove (not shown in the figure). The first guide groove and the second guide groove together form a guide ball track, in which the ball bearing 73 is movably located. The drive shaft 51 of the motor 5, the reduction mechanism 2, and the spindle 4 are sequentially connected and driven. The drive shaft 51 drives the spindle 4 to rotate through the reduction mechanism 2. The spindle 4 drives the impact block 71 to move through the ball bearing 73. The impact block 71 drives the output shaft 8 to move the tool head.
[0051] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the gearbox 1 includes a housing 11, an end cover 12, and a sealing ring 13. The housing 11 has open ends; one end allows the main shaft 4 to pass through for transmission engagement with the reduction mechanism 2, and the other end communicates with the end cover 12. The housing 11 includes a first connecting structure 111, and the end cover 12 includes a second connecting structure 121, a cover section 122, and a flange section 123. The end cover 12 is located at the rear of the housing 11, and the sealing ring 13 is fitted around the outer periphery of the cover section 122. The first connecting structure 111 and the second connecting structure 121 are detachably connected, allowing the housing 11 and the end cover 12 to connect and together form a cavity for accommodating the reduction mechanism 2. Furthermore, when the first connecting structure 111 and the second connecting structure 121 are in a connected state, the flange section 123 can press the sealing ring 13 against the limiting end face 112 of the housing 11. Due to the compression, the sealing ring 13 can seal the assembly gap between the housing 11 and the end cover 12.
[0052] Furthermore, when assembling the gearbox 1, the sealing ring 13 is first fitted onto the outer periphery of the cover section 122 of the end cover 12, and then the end cover 12 is connected to the housing 11. When the end cover 12 is not connected to the housing 11, since the flange section 123 protrudes from the cover section 122, the sealing ring 13 cannot pass over the flange section 123 and detach from the cover section 122. At the same time, since the second connecting structure 121 at least partially protrudes from the cover section 122, the sealing ring 13 cannot move in a direction away from the flange section 123 to the part that protrudes from the cover section 122 beyond the second connecting structure 121, thereby preventing the sealing ring 13 from detaching from the cover section 122.
[0053] By adopting the above technical solution, the first connecting structure 111 and the second connecting structure 121 are improved. On the one hand, the first connecting structure 111 and the second connecting structure 121 cooperate to stably connect the end cover 12 and the housing 11. In this way, when the end cover 12 and the housing 11 are assembled and then mounted on the housing 9 of the power tool 100, the end cover 12 and the housing 11 will not shift relative to each other, which is convenient for operation. On the other hand, when the first connecting structure 111 and the second connecting structure 121 are in the connected state, the flange section 123 can press the sealing ring 13 against the limiting end face 112 of the housing 11, which can prevent the sealing ring 13 from being damaged during assembly. Furthermore, by limiting the second connecting structure 121 to at least partially protrude from the cover section 122, the sealing ring 13 is prevented from detaching from the cover section 122 during the assembly process, which is convenient for operation and reduces the difficulty of assembly.
[0054] In one implementation, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the rear end face of the housing 11 forms a limiting end face 112, eliminating the need for an additional limiting end face and reducing processing costs.
[0055] In one implementation, such asFigures 3 to 5 As shown, the first connecting structure 111 is a slot formed on the inner wall of the box 11, and the second connecting structure 121 is a snap-fit structure; the cover section 122 extends into the box 11 at least partially, and the first connecting structure 111 and the second connecting structure 121 are snapped together, making the assembly structure simple and easy to operate.
[0056] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first connecting structure 111 is annular, that is, the first connecting structure 111 is an annular groove. Compared with setting a groove on the inner wall of the housing 11 that matches the size of the second connecting structure 121, this solution reduces the processing difficulty of slotting on the housing 11. Figure 5 As shown, there are at least two second connection structures 121 to ensure stable connection. Furthermore, all the second connection structures 121 are arranged in a circular array, which is beneficial for the buckle to receive force evenly and avoids excessive stress at local connection points, which could lead to damage.
[0057] In one implementation, such as Figure 5 As shown, the second connecting structure 121 is provided on the cover body section 122. The cover body section 122 has a notch 1221, and the second connecting structure 121 is located in the notch 1221. In this way, during the process of connecting or disconnecting the first connecting structure 111 and the second connecting structure 121, the second connecting structure 121 can easily deform, thereby achieving quick fastening or disconnection.
[0058] Furthermore, such as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the second connecting structure 121 includes a connecting arm 1211 and a snap-fit protrusion 1212. When the sealing ring 13 is fitted onto the outer periphery of the cover section 122, the outer sidewall of the connecting arm 1211 and the inner sidewall of the sealing ring 13 are interference-fitted, which helps the sealing ring 13 to be stably fitted onto the outer periphery of the cover section 122. The snap-fit protrusion 1212 protrudes radially outward along the sealing ring 13, thereby preventing the sealing ring 13 from moving away from the flange section 123 and detaching from the cover section 122.
[0059] In one implementation, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the end cap 12 is provided with a first anti-foolproof structure 124, and the housing 11 is provided with a second anti-foolproof structure 113; the first anti-foolproof structure 124 and the second anti-foolproof structure 113 cooperate to indicate the installation position of the end cap 12 relative to the housing 11, which facilitates operation.
[0060] Furthermore, the first foolproof structure 124 is a positioning rib, and the second foolproof structure 113 is a positioning groove, making the foolproof structure simple.
[0061] In one implementation, such as Figure 2As shown, the power tool 100 also includes a first bearing 3, and the reduction mechanism 2 includes a planetary carrier 21, planetary gears 22, a sun gear 23, and an internal gear ring 24. The planetary gears 22 are mounted on the planetary carrier 21 and mesh with the sun gear 23 and the internal gear ring 24 respectively. The sun gear 23 is coaxially connected to the drive shaft 51 of the motor 5. Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the end cap 12 is provided with a first mounting groove 125, and the first bearing 3 is installed in the first mounting groove 125. The first bearing 3 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the planetary carrier 21 and the two are interference-fitted. The first bearing 3 is used to support the planetary carrier 21. Furthermore, the planetary carrier 21 is integrally formed on the rear end of the spindle 4, reducing the number of parts and simplifying the assembly process.
[0062] In one implementation, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the power tool 100 also includes a second bearing 6, and the end cover 12 is provided with a second mounting groove 126; the second bearing 6 is mounted in the second mounting groove 126, and the second bearing 6 is sleeved on the front part of the drive shaft 51 with an interference fit between the two, and the second bearing 6 is used to support the front part of the drive shaft 51.
[0063] It should be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and are not intended to encompass all possible implementations included in the claims. Various modifications and changes can be made to the above embodiments without departing from the scope of this disclosure. Similarly, the various technical features of the above embodiments can be arbitrarily combined to form other embodiments of this utility model that may not be explicitly described. Therefore, the above embodiments only illustrate several implementations of this utility model and do not limit the scope of protection of this utility model patent.
