In the present embodiment, the output shaft 511 is provided with two mounting seats 511b in the circumferential direction. The front end, in an axial direction, of the motor shaft 1a is inserted into the receiving groove 511a, and two first planetary gears 513 are connected with the mounting seats 511b in relative rotation and engage with the motor shaft 1a received in the receiving groove 511a, the motor shaft 1a drives the output shaft 511 to rotate via the first planetary gear 513.
The sun gear 514 is disposed at a front of the first planetary gears 513 and fixed on the output shaft 511, so that the sun gear 514 and the output shaft 511 rotate together. In the present embodiment, the sun gear 514 and an outer ring of the output shaft 511 are in interference fit with each other. In other embodiments, the sun gear 514 may alternatively be integrally formed with the output shaft 511.

Refer to
The spring 522 sleeves the planetary carrier 516. A front end of the spring 522 is pressed against the planetary carrier 516, and a rear end of the spring 522 abuts against the housing 101. The planetary carrier 516 has an annular step located at the rear end and abutting against the cylinder 531, such that the spring 522 pushes the cylinder 531 forwardly.
When the impact electric hammer 100 is working under normal load, the planetary carrier 516 drives the cylinder 531 to rotate via the transmission sleeve 521. When the impact electric hammer 100 is overloaded, the cylinder 531 and the transmission sleeve 521 stop rotating, and the planetary carrier 516 overcomes a pressure of the spring 522 and disengages from the engagement of the transmission sleeve 521. In this way, transmission of the motor 1 may be separated from rotation of the cylinder 531 when the electric impact hammer 100 is overloaded, preventing the motor from burning.

The front end of the output shaft 511 is inserted into the accommodating groove, and the output shaft 511 defines a corrugated groove 511c disposed on the outer periphery of the front end of the output shaft 511. The corrugated groove 511c is connected end to end along the output periphery of the shaft 511 and has an axial front end and an axial rear end. The other part of each steel ball 21a is accommodated in the corrugated groove 511c. The piston 21 is clamped in the corrugated groove 511c by the steel ball 21a and can slide between the axial front end and the axial rear end of the corrugated groove 511c. One of an outer wall of the piston 21 and the inner wall of the cylinder 531 defines a slot, and the other of the outer wall of the piston 21 and the inner wall of the cylinder 531 is provided with a protrusion clamped in the slot, so that the piston 21 and the cylinder 531 rotate synchronously.
Reference to
A rotation speed of the output shaft 511 is set to be S1, the planetary gear assembly 51 decelerates the rotation speed S1 of the output shaft 511 to obtain a rotation speed S2 of the planetary carrier 516 and the cylinder 531, and the rotation speed S1 is greater than the rotation speed S2. A speed difference between the rotation speed of the output shaft 511 and the rotation speed of the cylinder 531 causes the corrugated groove 511c on the output shaft 511 to continuously drive the piston 21 to reciprocate, such that the piston 21 compresses the air to drive the hammer 22 to impact.
The hammer 22 transmits the impact force to the impact rod 23, and the impact rod 23 drives the chisel head to perform the impact output.
In the present embodiment, the piston 21 has a sliding portion abutting against the inner wall of the cylinder 531, the sliding portion defines an annular groove 21c recessed inwardly, and the impact assembly 20 is provided with a sealing ring received in the annular groove. The sealing ring abuts against the inner wall of the cylinder to increase air tightness. The protrusion 21b and the slot 531a are both located on a rear side of the sealing ring and the annular groove 21c when the piston 21 is at the rearmost end of the a moving trace of the piston 21, preventing the compressed air from leaking out of the slot, such that better air tightness is achieved, and the impact force of the electric impact hammer 100 is increased.
The cylinder 531 is provided with a step, which is protruding inward from the inner wall of the front end, and an elastic collar, which is located at the rear side of the step and retained in the inner wall. The lock hammer assembly 24 is axially limited between the step and the elastic collar. The lock hammer assembly 24 includes a front washer 241 abutting against the step, a rear washer 242 abutting against the elastic collar, and a rubber ring 243 disposed between the front washer 241 and the rear washer 242. The hammer 22 has a large-diameter portion abutting against the inner wall of the cylinder 531 and a small-diameter portion located at the front end of the large-diameter portion and configured to impact the impact rod 23. The front end of the small-diameter portion is provided with an annular protrusion, a diameter of the protrusion is larger than an inner diameter of the rubber ring 243. When the electric impact hammer 100 is in an unloaded state, the piston 21 drives the hammer 22 to move forwardly, and the annular protrusion is clamped at the front end of the rubber ring 243 and can no longer slide backwardly.

The damping ring 252 is fixed on the inner wall of the support sleeve 251 and extends along the arc-shaped inner wall of the support sleeve 251. The inner wall of the support sleeve 251 is provided with a blocking wall that protrudes inwardly and abuts against the rear end of the damping ring 252 to prevent the damping ring 252 from sliding to the rear end of the support sleeve 251. The sliding sleeve 253 is fixedly held in the damping ring 252, the sliding sleeve 253 sleeves the impact rod 23, and the impact rod 23 slides clockwise or counter-clockwise along the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 253. When the small-diameter portion of the hammer 22 impacts the impact rod 23, the impact rod 23 slides clockwise along the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 253, the rear end of the impact rod 23 is intermittently inserted into the cylinder 531, and the front end of the impact rod 23 is intermittently inserted into the rotary sleeve 541 to impact the chisel head.
The impact rod 23 is provided with a convex part 23a protruding outwardly from a periphery of the front end of the convex part 23a. When the impact rod 23 slides counter-clockwise, the convex portion 23a is clamped in the end surface of the sliding sleeve 253 and does not contact the damping ring 252. The convex portion 23a transmits a reverse impact force of the impact rod 23 to the sliding sleeve 253. The shock-absorbing ring 252 is an arc-shaped rubber sleeve, and the damping ring 252 buffers the impact force applied on the sliding sleeve 253 and transfers the impact force to the support sleeve 251. That is, the damping ring 252 performs a first-stage shocking absorption.
The support sleeve 251 transmits the impact force to the front washer 241, and the impact force on the front washer 241 is buffered by the rubber ring 24 and then transferred to the rear washer 242. Further, the rear washer 242 transmits the impact force to the cylinder 531 via the elastic collar. That is, the rubber ring 24 performs a second-stage shocking absorption. The rear end of the planetary carrier 516 is provided with an annular step abutting against the cylinder 531, and the cylinder 531 transmits the impact force to the planetary carrier 516, the spring 522 buffers the impact force transmitted to the planetary carrier 516 and then transmits the impact force to the housing 101. That is, the spring 522 performs a third-stage shocking absorption.
In the present embodiment, the reverse impact force of the impact rod 23 may be buffered by three stages shocking absorption cumulatively, such that the impact electric hammer 100 may be operated more comfortably. In other embodiments, the third-stage shocking absorption may alternatively achieved by arranging a clamp spring in the front end of the planetary carrier 516. The clamp spring is clamped on the outer ring of the cylinder 531, and the cylinder 531 transmits the impact force to the planetary carrier 516 via the clamp spring, such that the spring 522 buffers the impact force of the planetary carrier 516 and transfers the impact force to the housing 101. In another manner, the support sleeve 251 may be omitted, and the damping ring 252 may be directly supported in the housing 101, and the damping ring 252 m directly abut against the front washer 241.
In the present disclosure, the output shaft 511 of the electric impact hammer 100 is inserted into the accommodating groove of the piston 21, the outer periphery of the piston 21 defines a pair of through holes running through the outer periphery and reaching the accommodating groove. The outer periphery of the front end of the output shaft 511 defines the corrugated groove 511c, the steel ball 21a is clamped between the through hole and the corrugated groove 511c. The steel ball 21a moves between the axial front end and the axial rear end of the corrugated groove 511c when the output shaft is rotating, such that the steel ball 21a drives the piston 21 to reciprocate in the axial direction. The mechanism configured to drive the piston 21 to reciprocate is concentratively arranged inside the piston 21, such that the electric impact hammer 100 has a compact and miniaturized structure. In addition, the traditional crank connecting rod and the pendulum rod bearing having a large weight are omitted in the present disclosure, the weight of the electric impact hammer 100 is reduced significantly.

The motor 1, the output shaft 511, and the cylinder 531 have a same axis of rotation, which makes the structure of the hammer 100 more compact and miniaturized. The impact electric hammer 100 becomes more compact, and the housing 101 can also be configured into a sleeve shape that is convenient for the operator to hold, changing the way that a handle of the impact hammer must be held from the rear end of the impact electric hammer 100.
The damping ring 252 retained in the corner support assembly 25, the rubber ring 243 of the lock hammer assembly 24 retained in the front end of the cylinder 531, and the spring 522 sleeving the outer periphery of the cylinder 531 accumulatively performs three stages of shocking absorption, effectively reducing the vibration of the impact electric hammer 100 and improving the operating comfort of the operator. At the same time, hard collision applied to internal components of the electric impact hammer 100 may be reduced, and the service life of the electric impact hammer 100 may be increased.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to particular embodiments, it is not to be construed as being limited thereto. Various alterations and modifications can be made to the embodiments without in any way departing from the scope or spirit of the present invention as defined in the appended claims.
