Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soil tillage machinery technology, and more specifically, to a handheld rotary tiller. Background Technology

[0002] Handheld rotary tillers are devices used for cultivating soil. Currently, handheld rotary tillers on the market mainly consist of a housing, transmission components, a drive shaft, a handle, a cover, and a drive motor. The drive shaft runs horizontally through the bottom of the housing and is rotatably connected to the housing. The transmission components are connected inside the housing, and the output end of the transmission shaft is connected to the output shaft of the transmission components. Both ends of the transmission shaft are fixed with blade assemblies. The cover is fixed to the lower end of the handle, the drive motor is fixed inside the cover, and the cover is fixed to the upper end of the housing. The input end of the transmission components is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor. However, in the above-mentioned handheld rotary tiller structure, since the cover and the housing are fixed as one piece, and the housing and the blade assemblies both protrude horizontally from the cover and the handle, there is a disadvantage of large packaging volume for the handheld rotary tiller, which results in high packaging costs, high transportation costs, and inconvenient transportation. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a handheld rotary tiller whose internal cover and machine shell can be separated, thereby reducing the packaging volume of the handheld rotary tiller and thus reducing the packaging and transportation costs of the handheld rotary tiller.

[0004] This utility model provides a handheld rotary tiller, including a housing, a transmission assembly, a transmission shaft, a handle, a cover, and a drive motor. The transmission shaft is horizontally inserted through the bottom of the housing and rotatably connected to the housing. The transmission assembly is connected inside the housing, and the output end of the transmission shaft is connected to the transmission assembly. Both ends of the transmission shaft are fixed with blade assemblies. The cover is fixed to the lower end of the handle, and the drive motor is fixed inside the cover. The lower end of the cover is detachably connected to the upper end of the housing. A first transmission component is coaxially fixed on the output shaft of the drive motor, and a second transmission component is connected to the input end of the transmission assembly. The second transmission component is detachably connected to the first transmission component.

[0005] By adopting the above-mentioned structure, this utility model allows the cover and the machine housing to be detachably connected. When packaging or transporting the handheld rotary tiller, the cover and the machine housing can be separated, and the machine housing and the blade assembly can be placed parallel to the cover and the handle. This reduces the packaging volume of the handheld rotary tiller, thereby reducing the packaging and transportation costs.

[0006] In one possible implementation, the upper end of the housing is provided with an annular boss, and the outer side wall of the boss is provided with a plurality of slots circumferentially. The lower end of the cover is fitted onto the outside of the boss, and the inner wall of the lower end of the cover is provided with locking blocks corresponding to the slots one by one. When the cover is fitted onto the boss and rotates relative to the housing, each locking block engages into the corresponding slot, thereby making the cover and the housing rotate and fasten together. A locking structure is also provided between the cover and the housing. When the cover and the housing are rotated and fastened together, the locking structure is used to lock the cover and the housing together. By adopting this structure, when the cover is fitted onto the boss and rotates relative to the housing, Afterwards, each locking block can be engaged into the corresponding slot. At this point, the cover can be rotated and connected to the housing. Simultaneously, under the action of the locking structure, the cover and the housing can be locked together, thus ensuring that the cover and the housing are reliably assembled. When the locking structure is released from the locking state of the cover and the housing, and the cover rotates in the opposite direction relative to the housing, so that each locking block disengages from its corresponding slot, the cover can be detached, thus achieving the separation of the cover and the housing. By adopting the above structure, the disassembly and assembly of the cover and the housing can be easily achieved.

[0007] In one possible implementation, a knob is vertically slidably connected to the front side of the housing. A spring is provided between the knob and the housing, and the spring is used to apply a thrust to the knob to drive it to slide upward relative to the housing. A rod is provided at the upper end of the knob, and a hole is provided at the bottom of the cover. When the cover and the housing are rotated and fastened, the rod engages with the hole to lock the cover and the housing. With this structure, after the cover and the housing are rotated and fastened, and when the knob is released, the knob can slide upward under the action of the spring. At this time, the rod can engage with the hole, thereby reliably locking the cover and the housing.

[0008] In one possible implementation, a limit switch is fixed inside the cover; the limit switch is connected in series between the drive motor and the main control switch of the handheld rotary tiller, and the limit switch is located above the socket; when the plug is inserted into the socket, the plug triggers the trigger end of the limit switch to make the limit switch conduct; by adopting the above structure, since the limit switch is connected in series between the drive motor and the main control switch of the handheld rotary tiller, and the plug can only trigger the trigger end of the limit switch to make the limit switch conduct after the cover and the machine housing are rotated and fastened, and the plug is inserted into the socket, that is, the handheld rotary tiller can only be started after the cover and the machine housing are assembled and locked by the locking structure, thus improving the safety of the handheld rotary tiller.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the lower end of the first transmission member is provided with a plurality of slots evenly distributed in a circumferential direction, and the upper end of the second transmission member is provided with a plug corresponding to each of the plurality of slots. Each plug engages with one of the slots to allow the second transmission member to be circumferentially positioned and connected to the first transmission member. With this structure, when the cover and the housing are assembled, each plug can engage with one of the slots to allow the second transmission member to be circumferentially positioned and connected to the first transmission member, thereby enabling the second transmission member and the first transmission member to be easily connected and having the advantage of easy disassembly of the second transmission member and the first transmission member.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the transmission assembly includes a gear shaft, a support shaft, a gear ring, a pinion, and a large gear. The gear shaft is vertically positioned and rotatably connected to the inner side of the housing via two first bearings. The support shaft is horizontally positioned inside the housing, with both ends rotatably connected to the housing via second bearings. The gear ring and pinion are coaxially sleeved on the support shaft and circumferentially limited by it. The large gear is coaxially sleeved on the transmission shaft and circumferentially limited by it. The upper end of the gear shaft has splined teeth, and the lower end of the second transmission component has a splined hole into which the splined teeth are inserted. The lower end of the gear shaft has a gear section that meshes with the gear ring, and the large gear meshes with the pinion. By adopting this structure, the splined teeth and splined hole... With the help of the plug-in connection, the gear shaft can be reliably connected to the second transmission component. When the second transmission component drives the gear shaft to rotate, the gear ring can rotate under the cooperation of the gear part and the gear ring. Since the pinion of the gear ring is coaxially sleeved on the support shaft and circumferentially limited by the support shaft, it can drive the pinion to rotate synchronously. Since the pinion meshes with the large gear, it can drive the large gear, the transmission shaft and the cutter head assembly to rotate. By using the above transmission component, the transmission component can reliably transmit the power of the drive motor to the transmission shaft and the cutter head assembly so that the cutter head assembly can rotate reliably. In addition, the above transmission component is a gear-type transmission component, which has the advantages of good power transmission effect and high reliability.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the transmission assembly further includes a limiting block clamped inside the housing. The limiting block has a limiting groove at its bottom, into which the outer edge of the gear ring is inserted, with both sides of the outer edge of the gear ring abutting against the inner walls of the limiting groove. A through hole communicating with the limiting groove is vertically provided on the limiting block, into which the lower end of the gear shaft is inserted, with the outer wall of the gear abutting against the wall of the through hole. With this structure, under the action of the limiting groove, the outer edges of the gear ring abutting against the inner walls of the limiting groove, thus achieving axial limiting of the gear ring. Furthermore, the outer wall of the gear abutting against the wall of the through hole, thus achieving radial limiting of the gear abutting. In other words, this structure ensures reliable meshing between the gear abutting and the gear ring, enabling reliable power transmission and preventing slippage between the gear abutting and the gear ring.
