[0043] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2, Fig. 1 shows a schematic view of the structure of the head setting mechanism in an embodiment of the present application, Fig. 2 shows a schematic view of the structure of the head setting mechanism in an embodiment of the present application, and Fig. 3 shows a schematic view of the structure of the head setting mechanism in an embodiment of the present application. The head setting mechanism comprises an output shaft 1, an anvil 11, a mounting hole 12, a slot 13, a ball 2, a sliding sleeve 3, a limiting part 4, a fixing part 5 and a resetting part 6. The output shaft 1 can be made of metal and has a cylindrical shape. The anvil 11 can be integrally formed at one end of the output shaft 1. The anvil 11 can be symmetrically arranged along the radial direction of the output shaft 1. The mounting hole 12 can be arranged at the end of the output shaft 1 away from the anvil 11, and the mounting hole 12 can be located at the center of the output shaft 1. The anvil 11 is used to receive the impact force from the striking mechanism and transmit the impact force to the head installed in the mounting hole 12 at the front end of the output shaft 1.

[0044] The slot 13 is arranged at the end of the output shaft 1 and communicates with the mounting hole 12. The slot 13 extends along the length direction of the output shaft 1 and communicates with the mounting hole 12 along the radial direction of the output shaft 1. The side of the slot 13 close to the mounting hole 12 can be provided with a limiting part 131. The limiting part 131 protrudes towards the center of the slot 13, and the limiting part 131 can smoothly transition from the inside of the slot 13. The transition surface between the limiting part 131 and the slot 13 can be an inclined surface or an arc surface. In the embodiment of the present application, the transition surface is preferably an arc surface.

[0045] The slot 13 can have a first position and a second position. The ball 2 is installed in the slot 13 and can be limited by the limiting part 131, thereby limiting the position of the ball 2 entering the mounting hole 12. The ball 2 can slide between the first position and the second position, and thus can switch between the first position and the second position.

[0046] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Fig. 3 shows a schematic view of the structure of the head setting mechanism in an embodiment of the present application. The sliding sleeve 3 can be made of metal and has a cylindrical shape. The sliding sleeve 3 can be sleeved outside the slot 13 at the end of the output shaft 1 away from the anvil 11 and at least partially cover the slot 13. The inner wall of the sliding sleeve 3 can form a limiting part 31. The limiting part 31 is used to limit the position of the ball 2. During the sliding process of the sliding sleeve 3, the limiting part 31 switches between the second position and the outer wall of the output shaft 1. When the limiting part 31 is at the second position, the limiting part 31 limits the ball 2. When the limiting part 31 is at the outer wall of the output shaft 1, the limiting part 31 is out of limiting the ball 2.

[0047] The limiting part 31 can be provided with a limiting member 4 on the side close to the anvil 11, the limiting member 4 covers at least the first position and the limiting member 4 can only deform along the radial direction of the output shaft 1. The limiting member 4 can limit the position of the ball 2 moving along the radial direction of the output shaft 1. The fixing member 5 can be connected to the end of the output shaft 1 away from the anvil 11, the fixing member 5 can be mounted on the output shaft 1 and used to limit the position of the sliding sleeve 3. Specifically, in the embodiment of the application, the fixing member 5 can be a snap ring, a circlip or other axial fixing member.

[0048] The resetting member 6 can be arranged between the limiting part 31 and the fixing member 5, preferably, the resetting member 6 can be clamped between the limiting part 31 and the fixing member 5, the resetting member 6 can be an elastic member such as a spring, and the resetting member 6 has a tendency to push the limiting part 31 to the second position. The resetting member 6 is located between the fixing member 5 and the limiting part 31, so as to push the sliding sleeve 3 towards the anvil 11.

[0049] In some preferable embodiments, the limiting member 4 can be a radial spring, the radial spring can be a special form of spring, the intercept of the radial spring can be equal to the diameter of the radial spring, that is, the adjacent two turns of the radial spring are in close contact and there is no gap. Since the radial spring is formed by bending a steel wire, it has the ability of elastic deformation, and when it is subjected to force, the radial spring can only deform along the radial direction.

[0050] In some preferable embodiments, the distance of the radial deformation of the radial spring along the output shaft 1 is greater than or equal to the depth of the ball 2 entering the mounting hole 12. Due to the existence of the strip groove 13, the ball 2 can be accommodated into the strip groove 13, and when the ball 2 is subjected to force and moves outward along the radial direction of the output shaft 1, the ball 2 will extrude the radial spring and cause the radial spring to deform. When the distance of the radial deformation of the radial spring along the output shaft 1 is greater than or equal to the depth of the ball 2 entering the mounting hole 12, the ball 2 can completely leave the strip groove 13, so that the chuck can be easily taken out.

[0051] In some preferable embodiments, in order to position the chuck by keeping the ball 2 in the strip groove 13 and facilitate the insertion of the chuck, the force of the radial deformation of the radial spring is at least 4N, specifically, the force of the radial deformation of the radial spring is [6N, 15N], particularly, the force of the radial deformation of the radial spring is 7N, 8N, 9N or 10N.

[0052] In some preferable embodiments, the wire diameter of the radial spring is [0.3mm, 1.5mm], preferably, the wire diameter of the radial spring is 0.7mm, more preferably, the wire diameter of the radial spring is 0.6mm, or 0.5mm, at this time, the spring force of the radial spring makes the feeling of installing the chuck better.

[0053] In some preferable embodiments, the limiting part 31 is provided with a pushing surface 311 on the side facing the limiting member 4, the distance from the pushing surface 311 to the side surface of the limiting part 31 facing the fixing member 5 decreases from the inner wall of the sleeve 3 to the center of the sleeve 3, thereby guiding the moving direction of the ball 2. In particular, the pushing surface 311 can be an inclined surface or an arc surface.

[0054] In some preferable embodiments, the mounting hole 12 is used for mounting the bit, the force required for mounting the bit into the mounting hole 12 is [2N, 10N], in particular, when the wire diameter of the radial variable spring is 0.7mm, the force required for mounting the bit into the mounting hole 12 is 8N, preferably, at this time, the bit is mounted with a better feel.

[0055] Referring to Figure 4 , FIG. 4 shows a schematic diagram of the main structure of the screwdriver machine in an embodiment of the present application, the present application also discloses a screwdriver machine for driving a tool accessory, the tool accessory herein is a bit, the above-mentioned screwdriver machine comprises a housing 7, a power source 71, a transmission mechanism 72, an impact mechanism 73 and the bit mounting mechanism mentioned in any of the above embodiments. Among them, the power source 71 is at least partially accommodated in the housing 7. In some preferable embodiments, the power source 71 can be a motor.

[0056] The transmission mechanism 72 is accommodated in the housing 7 and connected to the power source 71 to receive the power of the power source 71, the impact mechanism 73 is connected to the transmission mechanism 72 and outputs the impact force to the bit mounting mechanism, the output shaft 1 receives the impact force of the impact mechanism 73 and transmits the impact force to the tool accessory, so that the tool accessory can rotate and impact in the circumferential direction.

[0058] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation manners of the present application, the description is more specific and detailed, but it should not be understood as a limitation on the patent scope of the application. It should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, which all belong to the protection scope of the present application.
