Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to the impact drill technology field, and more especially, to an impact switching device of an impact drill gearbox.

BACKGROUNG OF THE INVENTION

In general, the existing impact drills have the following several working modes: electric drill, electric screwdriver and impact drill. When using the screwing gear, the control gear must be adjusted at the screwing gear, in which case, the impact bit will decide when to shift the gear according to the screwing gear torque setting, while in gear shifting, the rotary motor of the impact bit keeps rotating, but the screwdriver keeps stationary, so that the impact bit cannot output the maximum torque. When using the electric drilling gear, the rotary motor and the front-end bit keep the same action all the time, outputting the maximum torque and maintaining no gear shifting. When using the impact drilling gear, except retaining of the original electric drilling gear function, the impact mechanism will be started up at the same time to provide impact action, which can drill cement wall or other hard objects more effectively. To achieve the possibility of operation and adjustment for various demands, in general, an impact switching device will be designed between the rotary motor and the front-end fitting, so as to realize the need for operation adjustment on machinery and provide a control interface for the user to set the impact drilling.

The present invention can lead the adjustment screw 62 to rise and fall spirally along the threaded columns 11 by rotating the function switching loop 61, so as to adjust the relative position of the position-limiting protruded posts 622 and the position-limiting bosses 631 for realizing switching of different functions, and meanwhile, prevent the impact switching device via the stop posts 64 from gear shifting under electric drilling and impact drilling gears but enable it to shift gear automatically under the screwing gear. The present invention adopts thread regulation to achieve function switching, in which three gears including screwdriver, electric drill and impact drill can be switched when rotating the function switching loop 61, and the gear shifting gasket 63 and the function switching loop 61 are not directly connected so that the gear shifting gasket 63 will not abrade the function switching loop 61, exhibiting simple structure, simple and convenient operation and good function switching effect.

The position-limiting bosses 631 are arranged on one side with position-limiting recesses 632 receiving the position-limiting protruded posts 622, wherein when the position-limiting protruded posts 622 of the adjustment screw 62 rotate to positions corresponding to the position-limiting recesses 632, there is space between the position-limiting protruded posts 622 and the position-limiting recesses 632 for the gear shifting gasket 63 to move up and down axially, the positions of the position-limiting recesses 632 and the position-limiting bosses 631 correspond to those of the screwing gear and the electric drilling gear respectively, the positions of the other side of the position-limiting bosses 631 form position-limiting planes 633, which correspond to the position of the impact drilling gear, and the gear shifting gasket 63 on its upper end face is circumferentially and regularly equipped with a plurality of position-limiting bosses 631.

The function switching loop 61 is vertically mounted with guide slots 611 on its internal surface, and the adjustment screw 62 is peripherally and prominently provided with guide posts 623, which are slidingly connected into the guide slots 611, and for the simple structure, the rotation of the function switching loop 61 will lead the adjustment screw 62 to rotate and move up and down.

The function switching loop 61 is equipped with guide slopes 612 on its internal surface, and the stop posts 64 press against the guide slopes 612. When rotating the function switching loop 61, the stop posts 64 can be led to move up and down by the pushing of the guide slopes 612. The stop posts 64 are prominently configured with a guide protrusion 641 on one side of the top, and the bottom of the guide protrusion 641 is arc structured and presses against the guide slope 612, which reduces the friction between the guide protrusion 641 and the guide slope 612.
