Kickback control methods for a power tool including a force sensor
A power tool including a housing, a motor having a rotor and a stator, at least one grip sensor configured to generate a grip parameter, and a switching network electrically coupled to the brushless DC motor. An electronic processor is connected to the switching network and the at least one grip sensor and configured to implement kickback control of the power tool. The electronic processor is configured to determine a kickback threshold based on the grip parameter, control the switching network to drive the motor, receive a signal related to a power tool characteristic, determine, based on the power tool characteristic being greater than or equal to the kickback threshold, that a kickback event of the power tool is occurring, and control, in response to determining that the kickback event is occurring, the switching network to cease driving of the motor.
TORQUE OUTPUT TOOL
A torque output tool includes an output shaft, a motor, a transmission assembly, and a gearbox. The gearbox is used for accommodating the transmission assembly. The transmission assembly includes a first planetary gearset and a second planetary gearset. The transmission assembly is capable of being switched to a first state and a second state such that the transmission assembly outputs a first gear ratio or a second gear ratio separately, where the first gear ratio is greater than the second gear ratio. When the transmission assembly outputs the first gear ratio, a rotational speed of the output shaft is greater than or equal to 300 r/min and less than or equal to 800 r/min. A length of the gearbox in an axial direction is greater than or equal to 38 mm and less than or equal to 46 mm.
IMPACT POWER TOOL
An impact power tool includes a transmission output shaft, a rotary impact assembly with a cam shaft, hammer, and anvil, and a tool output shaft rotatable with the anvil. A coupler removably couples the cam shaft to the transmission output shaft. When torque on the tool output shaft is less than or equal to a first threshold, the transmission output shaft, cam shaft, hammer, and anvil rotate together to transmit torque to the tool output shaft. When torque on the tool output shaft is above the first threshold, the hammer moves along the cam shaft away from the anvil by a first distance and applies rotary impacts to the anvil. When the hammer moves along the cam shaft away from the anvil by a second distance greater than the first distance, the coupler decouples the transmission output shaft from the cam shaft, interrupting torque transmission to the tool output shaft.
CONTROL ASSEMBLY FOR USE IN OPERATION OF AN ELECTRIC DEVICE
A control assembly for use in controlling a speed of operation of an electric device, the control assembly including: a control assembly housing; a magnetic sensor; a magnetic element; an actuator that is configured for movement relative to the control assembly housing wherein responsive to said movement of the actuator relative to the control assembly housing, the magnetic sensor and magnetic element move relative to each other between at least one of a first position and a second position such that the magnetic sensor senses a first magnetic field reading when in the first position and senses a second magnetic field reading when in the second position; and, a control module operably connected to the magnetic sensor and configured for controlling the electric device to operate in at least one of a first speed and a second speed by reference to an output of the magnetic sensor indicative of the sensed first magnetic field reading and the second magnetic field reading respectively.
Power tool and method
A power tool, including a support structure, a pivot bearing arranged on the support structure, a shaft mounted on the support structure via the pivot bearing, a rotatable tool coupled to the shaft, in particular a saw blade, milling cutter or grinding wheel, a strain gauge arrangement for detecting a mechanical quantity which depends on a force emanating from the tool, and a control device which is adapted to recognize an event and/or a state of the power tool according to the detected mechanical quantity. The strain gauge arrangement is arranged on a stationary structure section coupled in a force-transmitting manner to the pivot bearing and is not arranged on the pivot bearing.
IMPACT DRILL
An impact drill includes a lock pin, a biasing element, a function conversion member and an operation member. The lock pin is connected to the locking ring. The biasing element is connected to the lock pin and provides a biasing force that causes the lock pin to press against the locking ring. The function conversion member includes a stop portion configured to stop the movement of the lock pin along the first axis and a release portion configured to allow the movement of the lock pin along the first axis. The operation member is connected to the function conversion member. The operation member is configured to drive the function conversion member to rotate around the first axis to switch the stop state of the movement of the lock pin along the first axis.
ELECTRIC DRILL AND ELECTRIC TOOL
An electric drill and an electric tool, including: a housing provided with an air inlet and an air outlet; a motor received in the housing, wherein the motor at least comprises a motor shaft; a drill bit, acting on a workpiece; the motor shaft is connected to the drill bit; a gearbox arranged in the housing for accommodating the transmission assembly; a fan supported by the motor shaft; wherein the gearbox is formed with a passage, and at least a part of a flow path of an airflow that enters the housing from the air inlet and flows out of the housing from the air outlet is provided on the passage.
POWER TOOL AND CLUTCH ASSEMBLY THEREOF
Discloses are a power tool and a clutch assembly. The power tool includes a housing; a motor; and a transmission assembly, driven by the motor and including a clutch assembly. The clutch assembly includes an intermediate shaft, and an elastic member and a clutch block that are sleeved on the intermediate shaft. A front end of the elastic member is supported on the intermediate shaft, and a rear end of the elastic member is supported on the clutch block. The clutch block includes: a gear; a friction plate; and a nut. The gear rotates relative to the friction plate and the nut, in response to a driving force of the motor for driving the gear being greater than a sum of a friction force between the gear and the friction plate and a friction force between the gear and the nut.
POWER TOOL
A power tool including a rear cover simplifies assembly. A driver drill includes a motor including a stator and a rotor rotatable relative to the stator, a motor housing accommodating the motor, being cylindrical, and including a left housing and a right housing being laterally separable, a grip connected to a lower portion of the motor housing, an output unit in front of the motor and driven by the motor, and a rear cover supporting a rear portion of the rotor and closing a rear portion of the motor housing. The rear cover is held and fastened between the left housing and the right housing.
Power tool
A power tool includes a case, a motor, a plurality of Hall effect sensors, a first circuit board, and a second circuit board. The Hall effect sensors detect a position of a rotor of the motor and correspondingly generate position signals. A plurality of commutating switches and a first controller are disposed on the first circuit board. A second controller is disposed on the second circuit board, and could transmit a driving signal to the first controller according to the operating signal of an operator interface. The first controller regulates the commutating switches to commutate according to the driving signal and the position signals, thereby to activate the rotor to rotate. With such design, a commutation process and a user operating process are regulated by the two different controllers, which could efficiently simplify the program code installed in each of the controllers and facilitate the maintenance of the controllers.
