Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electromechanical technology, specifically relating to an electric tool. Background Technology

[0002] An electric impact wrench typically consists of several main parts: a housing, a motor, a transmission structure, an impact mechanism, and an output shaft. The motor drives the impact mechanism to rotate through the transmission structure. During rotation, the impact mechanism intermittently strikes the output shaft, outputting torque, which allows the output shaft to tighten or loosen the workpiece.

[0003] Electric impact wrenches generate significant vibration during operation, especially high-torque impact wrenches. Among the entire mechanism, the battery pack is most susceptible to vibration, as it can affect the connection between the battery pack and its socket, accelerating wear on the connecting parts and ultimately leading to poor contact and no output from the machine. Therefore, vibration-damping design for the battery pack, its socket, and their connection method is crucial.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an electric tool to address the aforementioned technical problems.

[0005] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of this utility model and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.

The shock-absorbing connection part has opposing support surfaces, and the opposing support surfaces extend outward to form support members.

[0011] The shock absorber is disposed on the support and housed in the shock absorber receiving groove, and both ends of the shock absorber abut against the inner surface of the shock absorber receiving groove and the supporting surface of the shock absorber connection, respectively.

[0012] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, a through hole is formed in the center of each shock absorber, and the shock absorber is press-fitted or injection-molded onto the corresponding support through the through hole.

[0013] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, the shock absorber is cylindrical, and a plurality of buffer holes are formed through both end faces.

[0014] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, the buffer holes are evenly distributed around the central through hole.

[0015] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, the diameter of the through hole matches the outer diameter of the support member, so that the shock absorber covers the outer surface of the support member in a matching manner.

[0016] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, the terminal block includes a connector, and the terminal block is fixedly mounted on the battery pack holder via the connector.

[0017] In one or more embodiments of this utility model, the battery pack holder includes a first battery pack holder and a second battery pack holder that are fixedly installed together, with an installation space formed between the first battery pack holder and the second battery pack holder, and the terminal block is installed in the installation space.

[0045] The technical solutions in this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0046] Example 1

[0047] Combined with Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 7 and Figure 10 the power tool shown, which includes a main body housing 1, a battery pack seat 2 and a plurality of shock-absorbing members 6. Among them, a positioning seat 4 is provided on the main body housing 1, and a battery pack seat accommodating cavity 41 and a shock-absorbing member accommodating groove 42 are provided in the positioning seat 4.

[0048] The battery pack seat 2 is accommodated in the battery pack seat accommodating cavity 41, and includes a main body portion 21, a wiring seat 7 connected to the main body portion 21 and at least one shock-absorbing connection portion 22. In this embodiment, there is a set of shock-absorbing connection portions 22, and the shock-absorbing connection portion 22 extends upward from the upper end surface of the main body portion 21 and is in a hollow convex shape. Opposite support surfaces 23 are formed on both sides thereof, and rod-shaped support members 5 symmetrically distributed with respect to the shock-absorbing connection portion 22 extend outward from the opposite support surfaces 23 respectively. There are four support members 5 in this embodiment, and each support member 5 is used to mount a shock-absorbing member 6.

[0049] After the shock-absorbing member 6 is provided on the support member 5, the shock-absorbing member 6 together with the support member 5 therein is accommodated in the shock-absorbing member accommodating groove 42, and both ends of the shock-absorbing member 6 are respectively abutted against the inner surface of the shock-absorbing member accommodating groove 42 and the support surface 23 of the shock-absorbing connection portion 22, so as to limit the vibration of the shock-absorbing member 6 within the shock-absorbing member accommodating groove 42, reduce the amplitude of the shock-absorbing member 6, and reduce the vibration generated during the operation of the power tool and transmitted to the shock-absorbing connection portion 22, thereby reducing the vibration of the battery pack 3 and the wear between the battery pack seat 2 and the battery pack 3.

[0050] Referring to Figure 1 shown, the power tool of this embodiment further includes a battery pack 3. The battery pack 3 is detachably installed on the battery pack seat 2 and is electrically connected to the battery pack 2 through the wiring seat 7; the battery pack seat 2 is detachably installed in the main body housing 1. The detachable installation enables the user to quickly replace the battery pack 3, and also facilitates the maintenance personnel to check and repair the battery pack 3 and the battery pack seat 2, reduces the maintenance and replacement costs, and improves the portability of the power tool.

[0051] In this embodiment, a through hole 8 is formed in the center of each shock-absorbing member 6, and the through hole 8 extends from one end close to the support surface 23 to the other end and does not penetrate the other end surface. The shock-absorbing member 6 is press-fitted or injection-molded onto the corresponding support member 5 through the through hole 8. Specifically, the shock-absorbing member 6 is rubber or other shock-absorbing materials, and it covers the outer surface of the corresponding support member 5 through a press-fitting or injection-molding process to improve the installation stability of the shock-absorbing member 6 and enhance the shock-absorbing performance.

[0052] In this embodiment, the shock absorber 6 is cylindrical, and a plurality of buffer holes 9 are formed through both end faces thereof. Among them, the cylindrical shape of the shock absorber 6 can ensure that the pressure and stress caused by vibration are evenly dispersed in all directions, which can improve the stability and durability of the shock absorber 6; the buffer holes 9 can provide a channel for air flow. When the power tool operates and generates vibration, the flow of air will consume a part of the vibration energy and play a buffering role.

[0053] In this embodiment, the buffer holes 9 are evenly distributed around the central through hole 8. Among them, when the power tool operates and generates vibration, the evenly distributed buffer holes 9 can evenly disperse the vibration to the entire shock absorber 6, achieving a consistent shock absorption effect in all directions. Moreover, the evenly distributed buffer holes 9 facilitate the design and installation of the shock absorber 6.

[0054] In this embodiment, the diameter of the through hole 8 matches the outer diameter of the support member 5, so that the shock absorber 6 is wrapped around the outer surface of the support member 5 in a tight fit manner. Specifically, the diameter of the through hole is approximately equal to the outer diameter of the support hole 5, and the depth of the through hole is approximately equal to the length of the support member 5. Such a tight fit makes there no gap between the support member 5 and the shock absorber 6, avoiding the shaking of the shock absorber 6, effectively reducing the transmission of vibration, and also reducing the wear between the support member 5 and the shock absorber 6, improving the service life.

[0055] The wiring base 7 is provided in the battery pack base 2. Refer Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the wiring base 7 includes a connecting member, and the wiring base 7 is fixedly installed on the battery pack base 2 through the connecting member. In this embodiment, the connecting member includes a pressing plate 10 and a screw 11. The wiring base 7 is connected to the battery pack base 2 through the connecting member composed of the combination of the pressing plate 10 and the screw 11. The screw 11 sequentially passes through the pressing plate 10 and the wiring base 7 and is fixedly connected to the screw hole on the battery pack base 2. When the power tool operates and generates vibration, through the connecting member composed of the pressing plate 10 and the screw 11, the stable connection between the wiring base 7 and the battery pack base 2 is ensured.

[0056] Power tools such as electric impact wrenches generate a large amount of vibration during operation due to the striking action of the impact structure. In order to reduce the transmission of vibration, in this embodiment, the power tool sleeved the shock absorber 6 on the support member 5 and houses it in the shock absorber receiving groove 42. The two ends of the shock absorber 6 are respectively abutted against the inner surface of the shock absorber receiving groove 42 and the support surface 23 of the shock connection portion 22, and the battery pack base 2 is housed in the positioning base 4 and connected to the battery pack 3 through a connecting member. This can reduce the wear between the battery pack base 2 and the battery pack 3 caused by vibration and avoid poor contact between the battery pack base 2 and the battery pack 3.

Installing the wiring seat 7 in the installation space formed by the first battery pack seat 24 and the second battery pack seat 25 can ensure the tight connection between the wiring seat 7 and the battery pack seat 2, improve the stability of the electrical connection, and avoid the risk of power-off caused by vibration.

[0059] Embodiment 3

[0060] As shown Figures 9 to 11 As shown, the power tool provided in this embodiment is basically the same as that in Embodiment 1. The difference is that the wiring seat 7 and the battery pack seat 2 are of an integrally formed structure. The integrated structure reduces the connection between components, simplifies the installation process, and can also improve the utilization rate of space.
