The invention discloses a rammer compactor for ground construction. The rammer compactor comprises a hollow shell. A first hollow chamber and a second hollow chamber are formed in the hollow shell. A curved rod is fixed to the positions, on the two sides of the first hollow chamber, of the hollow shell through bearings, the center of the curved rod is sleeved with a shaft sleeve, a driven gear is fixed to the position, in the second hollow chamber, of one end of the curved rod, a motor fixing shell is arranged outside the hollow shell, the motor fixing shell and the hollow shell are of an integrated structure, a motor is clamped into the motor fixing shell, and a driving gear is fixed to the position, in the second hollow chamber, of a motor spindle in the motor. The structure is compact, rotating parts are all arranged in a closed mode, and potential safety hazards are small. In addition, during transmission design of the device, the output power of the motor can be reduced through structure size matching between gears.
