Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The invention relates to a manual machine tool as defined in the preamble of claim 1. [Background technology]

[0002] The prior art already knows a manual machine tool having a drive unit, a housing and at least one user interface, the drive unit being operable by means of at least one manual switch, and the user interface including at least one operating element. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention relates to a manual machine tool comprising a housing, a tool receptacle for receiving a tool insert, an electrically commutated drive motor, the drive motor being arranged in the housing and having a drive shaft supported by at least one bearing, a fan impeller, and a sensor board for sensor-controlled commutation of the electrically commutated drive motor, the sensor board being arranged in the housing between the drive motor and the fan impeller, and at least one bearing configured to mechanically decouple the sensor board from the electrically commutated drive motor within the housing. It is proposed that the sensor board and the fan impeller be arranged at the end of the electrically commutated drive motor facing away from the tool receptacle.

[0004] The present invention provides a compact manual machine tool that allows for a compact design, which is achieved by arranging the sensor board and the fan impeller at the end of the drive motor facing away from the tool holder.

[0005] The manual machine tool may be configured as an electrically driven manual machine tool. In this case, the electrically driven manual machine tool may be configured as a mains-driven or battery-driven manual machine tool. For example, the manual machine tool may be configured as a screwdriver, a drill driver, a rotary percussion driver, a hammer, a drill hammer, or a percussion drill driver.

[0006] The housing of the manual machine tool is configured to at least partially accommodate a tool holder, a drive motor, a fan impeller, a sensor board, and a support member. The housing may be configured as a shell housing having two half shells. The housing can have at least one air intake opening and at least one air discharge opening. The air intake opening is configured to introduce air into the housing. The air discharge opening is configured to discharge heated air from the housing. The air discharge opening may be located near the fan impeller.

[0007] The tool holder can be configured as an internal tool holder, such as a bit holder, and / or an external tool holder, such as a nut holder. It is also conceivable that the tool holder is configured as a drill chuck. The tool holder can accommodate an insert tool, such as a screw bit or a box wrench, with which the user can establish a threaded connection between the mounting element and the mounting support.

[0008] The manual machine tool has a drive unit. The drive unit includes an electrically commutated drive motor and, in one embodiment, can have at least one transmission. The drive motor can be configured, in particular, as at least one electric motor. The transmission can be configured as at least one planetary gear and can be, for example, switchable. In the case of a switchable transmission, at least one gear change member, in particular a gear changer, can shift between at least two gear stages. The drive motor can be configured to be operable via a manual switch. When the manual switch is operated by a user, the drive motor is turned on and the manual machine tool begins to operate. When the manual switch is not operated by the user accordingly, the drive motor is turned off. The drive motor is preferably electronically controllable and / or tunable so that settings for reverse operation and a desired rotation speed can be implemented. In reverse operation, the drive motor can be switched between a right-handed rotation direction and a left-handed rotation direction. To switch the drive motor in reverse, the manual machine tool can have a rotation direction changeover member, in particular a rotation direction changeover.

[0009] The manual machine tool may have a striking mechanism. The striking mechanism generates high torque peaks during operation, thereby releasing or fastening a fixed coupling means. The striking mechanism may be connected to a drive motor by a transmission. The striking mechanism may be configured, for example, as a rotary striking mechanism, a lock striking mechanism, a rotary impact mechanism, or a hammer striking mechanism. The air intake opening may be arranged near the striking mechanism and / or the transmission. The transmission and / or the striking mechanism may have an intermediate shaft. For example, the intermediate shaft may accommodate a planetary gear of the transmission. Furthermore, the intermediate shaft may at least partially drive the striking mechanism.

[0010] The drive motor has a drive shaft. The drive shaft is supported in the housing by at least one bearing. The drive motor can drive a transmission, a striking mechanism, and / or a tool holder by means of the drive shaft. The bearing can be configured, for example, as a ball bearing, a rolling bearing, or a plain bearing. The bearing is arranged at an end of the drive motor facing away from the tool holder. The drive shaft can protrude into the intermediate shaft. Furthermore, a separate bearing can be provided for supporting the drive shaft. The separate bearing can be arranged in the intermediate shaft, whereby the drive shaft is supported therein by the separate bearing. The separate bearing can be configured, for example, as a ball bearing, a rolling bearing, or a plain bearing. The manual machine tool can have a manual machine tool axis. In this case, the rotation axis of the drive shaft can form the manual machine tool axis. In particular, a direction substantially parallel to the manual machine tool axis is understood as "axial direction." In contrast, a direction substantially perpendicular to the manual machine tool axis is understood as "radial direction."

[0011] The manual machine tool has a fan impeller. The fan impeller may be arranged on a drive shaft. In this case, the fan impeller and the drive shaft can be connected by a positive, friction, and / or material connection. The fan impeller may have a connecting body and an air conductor. The connecting body may be configured to connect the air conductor to the drive shaft. It is conceivable that the connecting body forms a friction-fit connection with the drive shaft. In this case, the connecting body can be press-fit onto the drive shaft. The connecting body can, for example, abut against a bearing. The air conductor is configured to guide air inside the housing. For example, the air conductor can guide air from the air intake opening to the air discharge opening. The air conductor can have air guide fins. The air conductor, in particular the air guide fins, can be oriented toward the sensor board and / or the drive motor.

[0012] Additionally, the manual machine tool includes an energy supply, which is intended for battery operation and / or mains operation, particularly by a manual machine tool battery pack. In a preferred embodiment, the energy supply is configured for battery operation. Within the scope of the present invention, the term "manual machine tool battery pack" refers to an integrated battery pack housing with at least one battery cell. The manual machine tool battery pack is preferably configured for supplying energy to commercially available battery-powered manual machine tools. The at least one battery cell may be configured, for example, as a lithium battery cell with a rated voltage of 3.6 V. By way of example, the manual machine tool battery pack can include up to 10 battery cells, although other numbers of battery cells are also conceivable. The embodiment of the battery-powered manual machine tool and its operation as a mains-powered manual machine tool are well known to those skilled in the art, and therefore, the details of the energy supply will not be discussed here.

[0013] The manual machine tool can have a control unit for controlling at least the drive unit. The control unit can be arranged in the housing, for example, in the handgrip of the manual machine tool or in the area of ​​the energy supply interface. The sensor board can be connected to the control unit for sensor-controlled commutation of the drive motor. The sensor board and the control unit can be connected to each other, for example, via a cable connection. For example, the sensor board and the control unit can be connected to each other by at least one plug and coupling. The sensor board is arranged in the housing between the drive motor and the fan impeller, at the end of the drive motor facing away from the tool holder. The sensor board can have at least one sensor element, for example, a Hall sensor. For example, three sensor elements can be provided on the sensor board. It is also conceivable that the sensor board has at least one other sensor element. The other sensor element can be, for example, a temperature sensor and / or an acceleration sensor. The control unit is configured to control and / or regulate the drive motor depending on a signal from the sensor board. The control unit can receive signals from the sensor board and switching signals from the manual switch. It is conceivable that the control unit processes the switching signal of the manual switch and then forwards the switching signal to the drive unit for control. The control unit is configured to process the signals of the sensor board and the switching signal so that the drive unit, in particular the drive motor, can be controlled and / or manipulated as required. The control unit can include at least one microprocessor or microcontroller.

[0014] The manual machine tool has at least one bearing. The bearing is configured to position the sensor board in the housing while mechanically decoupling it from the drive motor. The bearing allows the sensor board to be positioned inside the housing while being decoupled from the drive motor. The sensor board is positioned in the housing via the bearing without having any substantial mechanical connection to the drive motor. Typically, the sensor board is attached to the drive motor by screws. The bearing allows the sensor board to be positioned on the drive motor but without any substantial mechanical connection to the drive motor. By "substantially no mechanical connection," it is understood that the sensor board is not directly screwed, glued, or locked to the drive motor, nor is it directly connected to the drive motor via a retaining member, for example, by a snap connection, a screw connection, or a locking connection. However, it is also conceivable that the sensor board and the drive motor can be electrically connected, for example, by at least one cable, wire, or electrical plug connection. In this case, the electrical connection between the sensor board and the drive motor is formed solely to enable the transmission of electrical signals between the sensor board and the drive motor. For example, in the case of electrical connection, it is conceivable that the drive motor has an NTC resistor or an NTC thermistor for measuring the temperature of the drive motor, and that a connection cable for the NTC resistor or thermistor can be passed from the drive motor to the sensor board, thereby enabling a temperature signal to be transmitted from the drive motor to the sensor board via the connection cable.

[0015] The bearing may be connected to the housing by positive, friction, and / or material contact. It is conceivable for the housing to constitute the bearing, whereby the housing and the bearing are integrated. The bearing may be arranged on a bearing. It is also conceivable for the bearing to be arranged in the area of ​​the hand grip of the housing. Each half shell of the housing may have one bearing. The bearing may be configured, for example, in the form of a bridge or web.

[0016] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, the support member is configured to position the sensor board between the drive motor and the fan impeller. The support member positions the sensor board between the drive motor and the fan impeller, at the end of the drive motor facing away from the tool accommodating portion. It is conceivable that the stator of the drive motor at least partially overlaps the sensor board in the axial direction relative to the manual machine tool shaft. It is further conceivable that the motor terminal of the stator overlaps the sensor board in the axial direction, so that the motor terminal at least partially surrounds the sensor board. It is conceivable that at least a portion of the sensor board is positioned between the rotor and stator of the drive motor in the radial direction of the drive shaft. This positioning of the sensor board by the support member is possible.

[0017] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, at least one bearing is arranged between the drive motor and the fan impeller. The bearing is arranged between the drive motor and the fan impeller so that air can flow from the air intake opening through the fan impeller to the air discharge opening with substantially reduced swirl. The fan impeller assembly can abut against the bearing, particularly against the inner ring of the bearing. The bearing, particularly the inner ring of the bearing, can abut against the drive motor, particularly against the drive motor spacer or the drive motor rotor, and more particularly against the rotor magnet. It is conceivable that the stator of the drive motor overlaps the bearing in the axial direction relative to the drive shaft. It is also conceivable that the motor terminal of the stator at least partially protrudes from the bearing.

[0018] In one embodiment, the support member is configured to position the sensor substrate between at least one bearing and the drive motor. The support member can position the sensor substrate axially offset, thereby positioning the sensor substrate between the bearing and the drive motor. The outer diameter of the bearing can be larger than the opening in the sensor substrate for the drive shaft.

[0019] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, the sensor board is configured to surround the drive shaft at least partially. The sensor board may be configured, for example, in the shape of a half moon, a crescent moon, a C-shape, a T-shape, or a J-shape. The sensor board may then surround the drive shaft in an angular range of 10° to 330°. It is conceivable that the sensor board substantially completely surrounds the drive shaft.

[0020] In one embodiment, the sensor substrate is configured such that it surrounds at least one bearing at least locally, the sensor substrate may surround the bearing in an angular range of 10° to 350°, in particular in an angular range of 150° to 190°.

[0021] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, the sensor substrate has at least one housing element configured to house at least one bearing. The housing element can form a positive, friction, and / or material-fit connection with the bearing. The housing element can be formed in the sensor substrate, for example, in the form of a segment-shaped opening or notch.

[0022] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, the housing member is configured so that the sensor board is supported by the housing member on at least one bearing. Furthermore, the sensor board can abut against the bearing by the housing member. The bearing has an outer ring. The sensor board, particularly the housing member, can abut against the outer ring of the bearing. The sensor board, particularly the housing member, can be positioned and / or aligned relative to the drive shaft by the outer ring. Furthermore, a force generated on the sensor board can be introduced into the housing via the bearing by the housing member.

[0023] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, the receiving element is arranged in the housing at a distance from at least one bearing and / or drive shaft, and the receiving element may have a distance from the bearing and / or drive shaft, so that transmission of generated vibrations to the sensor board can be reduced, in particular minimized.

[0024] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, the bearing has at least one bearing receptacle, which is configured to receive at least one bearing. The bearing receptacle forms a positive, friction, and / or material-fit connection with the bearing. It is also conceivable that the bearing constitutes the bearing receptacle, so that the bearing and the bearing receptacle are integral. The bearing receptacle may be configured, for example, in the form of a shell, half shell, pot, or cup. If two bearings are provided for two half shells of the housing, each bearing may have one bearing receptacle.

[0025] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, the bearing receptacle at least partially, in particular circumferentially, surrounds, in particular encloses, at least one bearing, whereby the bearing receptacle can surround the bearing in the circumferential direction relative to the manual machine tool shaft, and the bearing receptacle is configured to fix the bearing axially and radially relative to the manual machine tool shaft.

[0026] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, the support member has at least one sensor board receptacle, which is configured to receive the sensor board. The sensor board receptacle is configured for axial and radial fixation of the sensor board. The sensor board receptacle is configured to receive the sensor board at least in a form-fitting manner. It is conceivable that the sensor board receptacle receives the sensor board in a friction-fitting manner or be connected to the sensor board in a material-fitting manner. The sensor board receptacle and the sensor board can be connected to each other, for example, in the form of a snap connection or a plug-in connection. It is also conceivable that the sensor board is screwed to the sensor board receptacle. The sensor board receptacle can be configured, for example, in the form of a groove, a well, a shell, a drawer, a pocket, or a pot. It is also possible for the sensor board and / or the sensor board receptacle to have at least one tensile stress relief hole for at least one sensor cable. The sensor cable enables an electrical connection between the sensor board and the control unit.

[0027] In an alternative embodiment, the support element is configured in the form of a coupling coupling. The coupling coupling has a sensor board receptacle and a plug-in element. The sensor board receptacle is arranged at a first free end of the coupling coupling and is configured as a slot-shaped receptacle for the sensor board. The slot-shaped receptacle is configured to at least partially and at least locally receive and surround the sensor board. The sensor board can be inserted into the slot-shaped receptacle. It is also conceivable that the sensor board receptacle is at least partially overmolded onto the sensor board. The plug-in element is arranged at a second free end of the coupling coupling. The plug-in element is configured to establish a mechanical connection at least with the housing, in particular with a housing half-shell. The housing, in particular the housing half-shell, can have a socket for the plug-in element. The socket is configured to receive the plug-in element and to establish a mechanical connection by means of the plug-in element. The plug-in element and the socket are configured such that the plug-in element can be inserted into the socket. The socket can form a positive-fit and / or friction-fit connection with the plug-in element. Furthermore, the socket can form a snap, hook, latch or bayonet connection with the plug, which allows the sensor board to have a substantially no direct connection with the housing, in particular with the housing half shells, but to be indirectly connected to the housing by a mating coupling.

[0028] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, the bearing member has at least one support member configured to support the sensor board relative to the housing. The bearing member and the support member may be connected to each other by positive, friction, and / or material contact. It is also conceivable that the bearing member constitutes the support member, whereby the bearing member and the support member are integral. The support member may be configured, for example, in the form of a coupling, a web, or an L-shaped angle member. The sensor board may have at least one pin. In that case, the support member can receive the pin in at least a positive fit. The support member allows forces generated, for example, by operation of the manual machine tool or by dropping it to the ground, to be dissipated into the housing.

[0029] In one embodiment, the support member forms the bearing receptacle, the sensor board receptacle, and the support member, i.e., the support member, the bearing receptacle, the sensor board receptacle, and the support member may be integrally configured.

[0030] In one embodiment, the manual machine tool has a separate bearing for supporting the sensor board, the separate bearing being arranged in the housing between the drive motor and the fan impeller. The separate bearing may be connected to the housing by positive, friction, and / or material contact. The housing may also constitute the separate bearing, so that the separate bearing and the housing are integrated. Each half shell of the housing may have one separate bearing. The separate bearing may be configured, for example, in the form of a groove, a shell, a pot, or U-shaped. The separate bearing may be arranged in the area of ​​the handgrip. In particular, the separate bearing is arranged in the handgrip. The separate bearing allows for greater stability of the sensor board during a drop test.

[0031] If the sensor board and / or the bearing receptacle rests against the bearing, the further bearing element can be in the form of a coupling, where the sensor board can have a type of plug or pin which, together with the coupling, establishes at least one form-fitting connection.

[0032] If the sensor substrate is arranged at a distance from the bearing, the sensor substrate can have, for example, two webs for supporting the sensor substrate or can be configured in the form of an L-shaped angle bar.

[0033] In an alternative embodiment, the further support member constitutes the bearing receptacle, the sensor board receptacle, and the support member, i.e., it is conceivable that the further support member, the bearing receptacle, the sensor board receptacle, and the support member are integral.

[0034] In one embodiment, the sensor board is disposed between the drive motor and the fan impeller such that airflow can be guided from the drive motor to the fan impeller around the sensor board with substantially little swirl, particularly without swirl. For example, airflow entering the housing through the air intake opening can flow through the striking mechanism housing, the transmission housing, or the striking mechanism cover with substantially little swirl. Heat that may be generated by the operation of the manual machine tool can then be absorbed by the airflow. This airflow then flows around the drive motor, further absorbing heat. The sensor board is disposed between the drive motor and the fan impeller such that airflow can be guided around the sensor board with substantially little swirl, particularly without swirl, thereby transferring the absorbed heat toward the fan impeller. The heat can then be efficiently transferred through the fan impeller to the air discharge opening, allowing it to escape from the housing.

[0035] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, the housing has at least one through-flow member, which is arranged between the drive motor and the fan impeller. The housing and the through-flow member may be connected to each other by positive, friction, and / or material joints. It is also conceivable that the housing constitutes the through-flow member. The through-flow member may be configured, for example, as a through-flow opening or through-flow recess. In this case, for example, two through-flow openings are provided. The through-flow opening may be configured, for example, as a segment of a circle, a circle, an oval, a triangle, a square, or a polygon. The through-flow member may be arranged between the sensor board and the fan impeller.

[0036] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, the sensor board includes at least one air guide member configured to guide the airflow from the drive motor to the fan impeller. For example, the sensor board constitutes the air guide member. The air guide member may be configured, for example, as an opening or a notch, and may have a circular, elliptical, or arc-like shape. The air guide member is configured to enable the airflow to be guided from the drive motor to the fan impeller with substantially reduced swirl.

[0037] In one embodiment of the manual machine tool, the support member and / or the other support member have at least one air guide member configured to guide the air flow from the drive motor to the fan impeller. The support member and / or the other support member can then constitute the air guide member. The air guide member can be configured, for example, as an opening, a notch, an edge, a protrusion, or a web. The air guide member allows the air flow to be guided from the drive motor to the fan impeller with substantially reduced swirl, particularly without swirl.

[0040] FIG. 1 shows a manual machine tool 100 according to the present invention, exemplarily configured as a battery-powered rotary impact driver. The manual machine tool 100 includes a driven shaft 124, a tool holder 150, and an exemplary impact mechanism 122, such as a rotary impact mechanism or rotary impact mechanism. The manual machine tool 100 has a housing 110 with a handgrip 126. The manual machine tool 100 can be mechanically and electrically coupled to an energy supply for battery operation for a current supply independent of a power source, thereby configuring the manual machine tool 100 as a battery-powered manual machine tool 100. In this case, a manual machine tool battery pack 130 serves as the energy supply. However, the present invention is not limited to battery-powered manual machine tools and can also be applied to power-dependent, i.e., mains-powered, manual machine tools.

[0041] In this example, a housing 110 includes a drive unit 111 and a striking mechanism 122, which are arranged within the housing 110. The drive unit 111 includes an electrically commutated drive motor 114 that receives current from a manual machine tool battery pack 130 and a transmission 118. The drive motor 114 has a stator 165, an end plate 166, a rotor 167, and a rotor magnet 168 (see also FIG. 2). The transmission 118 is configured as at least one planetary gear (see also FIG. 2). The drive motor 114 is designed to be operable, for example, via a manual switch 128, which allows the drive motor 114 to be turned on and off. The drive motor 114 is preferably electronically controllable and / or tunable, allowing for reverse operation and a desired rotation speed. For reversing operation, the manual machine tool 100 has a rotation direction changeover member 121 configured as a rotation direction changeover member for switching the drive motor 114 between a right-handed and a left-handed rotation direction. The structure and function of suitable drive motors are well known to those skilled in the art and will therefore not be described in detail here.

[0042] The transmission 118 is coupled to the drive motor 114 via a drive shaft 116. The drive shaft 116 is supported in the housing 110 by bearings 180. The transmission 118 is intended to convert the rotation of the drive shaft 116 into rotation between the transmission 118 and the impact mechanism 122 via an intermediate shaft 120. This conversion is preferably performed so that the intermediate shaft 120 rotates with increased torque but at a reduced rotational speed relative to the drive shaft 116. The intermediate shaft 120 houses planetary gears 129 of the transmission 118, although only one planetary gear 129 is shown here. See also FIG. 2. The intermediate shaft 120 at least partially drives the impact mechanism 122. The transmission 118 has a transmission housing 119 arranged within the housing 110. The manual machine tool 100 further includes a fan impeller 190. The fan impeller 190 is intended to generate an air flow within the housing 110. The manual machine tool 100 includes a manual machine tool axis 102, where the rotation axis of the drive shaft 116 forms the manual machine tool axis 102.

[0043] The striking mechanism 122 is coupled to the intermediate shaft 120 and includes a striking body 125 that generates a high-intensity rotary impact. This rotary impact is transmitted to the driven shaft 124, e.g., to a work spindle, via the striking body 125. The striking mechanism 122 includes a striking mechanism housing 123, although the striking mechanism 122 may also be arranged in any other suitable housing, e.g., in the transmission housing 119. The striking mechanism 122 is configured to drive the driven shaft 124, which is provided with a tool receptacle 150. The tool receptacle 150 is preferably integrally formed and / or configured on the driven shaft 124. The tool receptacle 150 is preferably arranged in an axial direction 132 facing away from the drive unit 111. The tool receptacle 150 is configured in the form of a bit holder, here as a hexagonal socket receptacle intended for receiving an insert tool 140. The insert tool is in the form of a driver bit having a polygonal outer coupling 142. For example, driver bit types based on the HEX format are well known to those skilled in the art. However, the present invention is not limited to the use of HEX driver bits, and other tool holders may be used as would be apparent to those skilled in the art, such as HEX drills, SDS quick insert tools, round shank drill chucks, etc. Furthermore, the structure and function of suitable bit holders are well known to those skilled in the art.

[0044] The manual machine tool 100 includes a control unit 170 for controlling at least the drive unit 111, particularly the drive motor 114, and a sensor board 240 for sensor-controlled commutation of the electrically commutated drive motor. The sensor board 240 is arranged in the housing 110 between the drive motor 114 and the fan impeller 190. The housing 110 at least partially accommodates the control unit 170. The sensor board 240 is connected to the control unit 170 by a sensor cable 242 for sensor-controlled commutation of the drive motor 114. The sensor board 240 and the control unit 170 are connected to each other by a plug 244 and a coupling. See also Figures 2, 3, and 4. It is also conceivable that the sensor board 240 and the control unit 170 are connected to each other by a connecting cable, which is soldered to the sensor board 240 and the control unit 170, respectively. The control unit 170 includes a microprocessor (not shown in detail). The housing 110 further includes an energy supply maintenance device 160. The energy supply and maintenance device 160 houses the manual machine tool battery pack 130 and forms a stand leg 162 having a stand surface. The manual machine tool battery pack 130 is removable from the energy supply and maintenance device 160 without tools. The housing 110 further includes a hand grip 126 and the energy supply and maintenance device 160. The hand grip 126 can be held by a user. In one embodiment, the energy supply and maintenance device 160 is disposed on the hand grip 126. The stand leg 162 allows the manual machine tool 100 to stand upright.

[0045] The manual machine tool 100 includes a support member 200. The support member 200 is intended to mechanically decouple the sensor board 240 from the electrically commutated drive motor 114 and position it within the housing 110. The sensor board 240 and fan impeller 190 are then positioned at the end 134 of the electrically commutated drive motor 114 facing away from the tool receptacle 150.

[0046] FIG. 2 shows a portion 400 of a longitudinal section of the manual machine tool 100. The housing 110 at least partially accommodates the tool holder 150, the drive motor 114, the fan impeller 190, the sensor board 240, and the support member 200. Here, the housing 110 is configured as a shell housing having two half shells 112, of which only one half shell 112 is shown. By way of example, the housing 110 includes an air intake opening 115 and an air discharge opening 117. Here, the air intake opening 115 is intended for introducing air into the housing 110, and the air discharge opening 117 is intended for discharging heated air from the housing 110.
