[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: This utility model provides an electric circular saw, which includes a handle housing, a drive motor, and a saw blade. The handle housing includes a first half-shell, a second half-shell, and a machine housing. The first half-shell is fixedly connected to the second half-shell, and the machine housing is fixedly disposed within the first and second half-shells. The machine housing has a mounting cavity with an opening facing the first half-shell. The drive motor includes a stator assembly and a rotor assembly.

Detailed Implementation

[0029] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] This embodiment discloses an electric circular saw 1000, referencing... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The electric circular saw 1000 includes a handle housing 100, a drive motor 200, and a saw blade (not shown in the figure). The drive motor 200 is disposed inside the handle housing 100, and the saw blade is rotatably disposed outside the handle housing 100 and is connected to the drive motor 200 for transmission.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the handle housing 100 includes a first half-shell 110, a second half-shell 120, and a housing 130. The first half-shell 110 is fixedly connected to the second half-shell 120, and the first half-shell 110 and the second half-shell 120 are detachably connected. The first half-shell 110 and the second half-shell 120 enclose an internal cavity, and the housing 130 is fixedly disposed within the internal cavity of the first half-shell 110 and the second half-shell 120.

[0032] In this embodiment, the first half-shell 110 and the second half-shell 120 are connected by bolts. In other embodiments, the first half-shell 110 and the second half-shell 120 can also be connected by snap-fit ​​or other suitable means.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, the housing 130 is fixedly connected to the first half-shell 110. The housing 130 is a cylindrical component with a bottom at one end, and the housing 130 is provided with a mounting cavity 131 with an opening facing the first half-shell 110. The drive motor 200 is installed inside the housing 130.

[0034] In this embodiment, the housing 130 and the first half-shell 110 are connected by bolts. Specifically, refer to... Figures 3 to 5The first half-shell 110 has a first connecting hole 111, and the end of the housing 130 facing the first half-shell 110 has a third connecting hole 132. The first connecting hole 111 and the third connecting hole 132 are aligned and a connecting bolt 170 is passed through them simultaneously to detachably connect the housing 130 and the first half-shell 110. In other embodiments, the housing 130 and the first half-shell 110 can also be detachably or non-detachably fixedly connected by other suitable methods. In other embodiments, the housing 130 can also be fixedly connected to the second half-shell 120.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 The second half-shell 120 has a clearance opening 121 on the side opposite to the first half-shell 110. The end of the housing 130 opposite to the first half-shell 110 extends out of the clearance opening 121. This allows for a reduction in the size and material consumption of the second half-shell 120 while still satisfying the installation requirements of the drive motor 200.

[0036] In this embodiment, the clearance opening 121 fits into the housing 130, that is, the shape and size of the clearance opening 121 are the same as those of the housing 130, and the housing 130 is embedded in the clearance opening 121, so that the second half-shell 120 and the housing 130 are assembled tightly and reliably.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 The drive motor 200 includes a stator assembly 210 and a rotor assembly 220. The stator assembly 210 is fixedly disposed in the mounting cavity 131, and the stator assembly 210 is annular and adapted to the mounting cavity 131.

[0038] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 The rotor assembly 220 is rotatably fitted into the stator assembly 210. The stator assembly 210 and the rotor assembly 220 are axially confined between the first half-shell 110 and the second half-shell 120. The rotating shaft 221 of the rotor assembly 220 extends out of the first half-shell 110 and is connected to the saw blade drive to drive the saw blade to rotate for cutting. Thus, the electric circular saw 1000 directly mounts the stator assembly 210 and the rotor assembly 220 of the drive motor 200 through the handle housing 100, without the need for additional end caps, reducing the number of parts, lowering production costs and assembly complexity; this arrangement makes full use of the space inside the handle housing 100, reducing the overall size of the electric circular saw 1000.

[0039] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4The first half-shell 110 has an output window 112, and a mounting bracket 140 is detachably connected to the first half-shell 110 at the output window 112, the mounting bracket 140 covering the output window 112. The mounting bracket 140 is for mounting gear sets and saw blades, and has an output hole 141, through which the shaft 221 of the rotor assembly 220 extends to connect to the gear set or saw blade. During maintenance, the mounting bracket 140 can be removed from the output window 112 to facilitate inspection and maintenance of the stator assembly 210 and the rotor assembly 220.

[0040] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the mounting bracket 140 has a second connecting hole 142 aligned with the first connecting hole 111. The connecting bolt 170 passes through both the first connecting hole 111 and the second connecting hole 142 to connect the mounting bracket 140 and the first half-shell 110. Thus, the first half-shell 110, the mounting bracket 140, and the housing 130 can be connected simultaneously by the connecting bolt 170, reducing the number of connecting parts and facilitating the assembly of the electric circular saw 1000.

[0041] In other embodiments, the mounting bracket 140 and the first half-shell 110 may be connected by other bolts instead of sharing the connecting bolt 170 with the housing 130. In other embodiments, the mounting bracket 140 and the first half-shell 110 may also be connected by other suitable methods.

[0042] Reference Figures 1 to 5 The handle housing 100 also includes a head housing 150. The head housing 150 is detachably connected to the side of the first half housing 110 opposite to the second half housing 120, and the head housing 150 covers the saw blade to provide protection above the saw blade.

[0043] In this embodiment, the head shell 150 is provided with a threaded hole 151, which communicates with the first connecting hole 111, the second connecting hole 142 and the third connecting hole 132. The connecting bolt 170 passes through the first connecting hole 111, the second connecting hole 142 and the third connecting hole 132 and then engages with the threaded hole 151, thereby realizing the connection of the first half shell 110, the housing 130, the mounting bracket 140 and the head shell 150.

[0044] In addition, in other embodiments, the head shell 150 may also be connected to the first half shell 110 in other suitable ways.

[0045] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 6A limiting groove 143 is formed on the side of the mounting bracket 140 facing the second half-shell 120 (i.e., the side of the mounting bracket 140 facing the internal cavity of the first half-shell 110), and the output hole 141 communicates with the limiting groove 143. A first bearing 222 is coaxially connected to the rotating shaft 221 of the rotor assembly 220. The first bearing 222 is rotatably engaged with the limiting groove 143. Thus, the rotor assembly 220 is axially and radially limited by the engagement of the first bearing 222 with the limiting groove 143 of the mounting bracket 140, making it difficult for the rotor assembly 220 to move axially or wobble radially.

[0046] In this embodiment, the rotor shaft 221 of the rotor assembly 220 forms a step at the first bearing 222. The step abuts against the side of the first bearing 222 away from the bottom wall of the limiting groove 143, thereby enabling the limiting groove 143 to axially limit the first bearing 222 and the shaft 221. In other embodiments, the first bearing 222 may also be tensioned and sleeved on the outside of the shaft 221.

[0047] The end of the rotor assembly 220's shaft 221 away from the mounting bracket 140 is connected to a shock-absorbing washer 223. The shock-absorbing washer 223 abuts against the bottom wall of the housing 130. That is, the end of the shaft 221 abuts against the bottom wall of the housing 130 through the shock-absorbing washer 223 to reduce the vibration when the rotor assembly 220 rotates.

[0048] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 A second bearing 224 is fitted inside the inner ring of the damping washer 223, and the inner ring of the second bearing 224 is fitted outside the rotating shaft 221 of the rotor assembly 220. The second bearing 224 is provided between the rotating shaft 221 and the damping washer 223, so that both ends of the rotating shaft 221 are supported and axially limited by the bearing, making the rotating shaft 221 more stable and reducing wear when rotating.

[0049] The rotating shaft 221 also has a step at the second bearing 224. The step abuts against the side of the second bearing 224 away from the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 131 to axially limit the second bearing 224.

[0050] In this embodiment, the bottom wall of the housing 130 is provided with a limiting groove 133, and the shock-absorbing washer 223 fits into the limiting groove 133. The limiting groove 133 limits the shock-absorbing washer 223 and the rotating shaft 221 radially and axially, so that the rotor assembly 220 is not easy to move axially or deviate radially.

[0051] Reference Figures 2 to 4A baffle ring 160 is detachably connected to the opening of the housing 130, and the side of the stator assembly 210 facing the opening of the mounting cavity 131 abuts against the baffle ring 160. A limiting step 134 is provided radially inwardly protruding from the inner wall of the housing 130, and the side of the stator assembly 210 facing the bottom wall of the mounting cavity 131 abuts against the limiting step 134. The opposite sides of the stator assembly 210 abut against the baffle ring 160 and the limiting step 134 respectively, so as to axially limit the stator assembly 210 within the housing 130.

[0052] In this embodiment, the wind deflector 160 is detachably connected to the opening edge of the housing 130 by screws. In other embodiments, the wind deflector 160 may also be connected to the housing 130 in other suitable ways.

[0053] The assembly method of the electric circular saw 1000 in this embodiment is as follows: 1. Install the stator assembly 210 into the housing 130, and connect the wind baffle 160 to the housing 130 with screws.

[0054] 2. Assemble the shock-absorbing washer 223, the first bearing 222, and the second bearing 224 onto the rotor assembly 220. Insert the rotor assembly 220 into the housing 130 through the output window 112. Then, arrange the mounting bracket 140 and the head shell 150 sequentially outside the first half-shell 110, aligning the connecting hole, the second connecting hole 142, the third connecting hole 132, and the threaded hole 151. Then, pass the connecting bolt 170 through the first connecting hole 111, the second connecting hole 142, the third connecting hole 132, and the threaded hole 151.

[0055] 3. Fasten the second half shell 120 to the first half shell 110, and connect the first half shell 110 and the second half shell 120 with bolts.

[0056] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made to the structure, features and principles described in the claims of the present utility model patent application are included in the scope of the present utility model patent application.
