Rotary power tool including transmission housing bushing
A rotary power tool comprises a drive mechanism including an electric motor and a transmission, a housing enclosing at least a portion of the drive mechanism, a spindle rotatable in response to receiving torque from the drive mechanism, a first ratchet coupled for co-rotation with the spindle, a second ratchet rotationally fixed to the housing, a sleeve bushing supported by the housing, and a bearing rotatably supporting the spindle. The spindle has an outer race. And, the outer race of the bearing moves along the sleeve bushing during reciprocation of the spindle when the first ratchet and second ratchet are engaged.
Bearing retainer for a power tool
A power tool includes a motor housing and a motor supported within the motor housing. The motor includes an output shaft defining an axis. The power tool also includes a bearing configured to support the output shaft for rotation about the axis, an end cap removably coupled to the motor housing, and a bearing retainer integrally formed with the end cap. The bearing retainer is configured to axially and radially secure the bearing to the end cap.
BEARING RETAINER FOR A POWER TOOL
A power tool includes a motor housing defined by cooperating clamshell halves, a front housing portion coupled to the motor housing, and an end cap coupled to the motor housing opposite the front housing portion. A motor is supported within the motor housing. The motor includes an output shaft defining an axis. A fan is coupled for co-rotation with the output shaft. The power tool also includes a bearing configured to support the output shaft for rotation about the axis and a bearing retainer axially and radially securing the bearing within the end cap.
Electric power tool
A hammer drill includes a boss sleeve rotatably and externally mounted to an intermediate shaft separately from the intermediate shaft. The boss sleeve includes a rod coupled to a rear end of a piston cylinder via a swash bearing. The boss sleeve is configured to rotate to convert a rotation of the intermediate shaft into a reciprocating motion in a front-rear direction of the rod and transmit the reciprocating motion to the piston cylinder. The hammer drill includes a second clutch disposed at the intermediate shaft. By performing a switch operation of a slide position of the second clutch, a hammer mode in which the second clutch is engaged with the boss sleeve to reciprocate the piston cylinder back and forth and another operation mode are selectable. The boss sleeve is rotatably cantilevered not to be in contact with the intermediate shaft by an inner housing via a bearing.
Hammer drill
A hammer drill includes a housing inside which a motor, a tubular tool holder, a driving mechanism, a rotation conversion member, and an inner housing are disposed. The driving mechanism is configured to perform at least one of rotation actuation of the tool holder and hammering actuation of a bit. The inner housing supports the driving mechanism, supports the tool holder via a first bearing, and supports an output shaft via a second bearing. The inner housing is divided into a front housing holding the first bearing and a rear housing that is formed in a separate body from the front housing and holds the second bearing. The inner housing is formed by connecting the front housing to the rear housing in an axis line direction of the tool holder. A seal member sealing outside space of the inner housing inside the housing is disposed in the front housing.
