SUPPLEMENTARY MECHANISM THAT PROVIDES A TEMPERATURE RISE AND FALL EFFECT TO A MACHINE TOOL SPINDLE

A supplementary mechanism that provides a temperature rise and fall effect to a machine tool spindle is mainly used to connect to pipelines between a machine tool spindle and a cooling device. The present invention provides an additional heating function to the spindle of the machine tool that originally has a cooling device, and still retains its original cooling function. The supplementary mechanism can provide the effect of raising and lowering the temperature. When cooling, the liquid provided by the cooling device is passed to directly cool the machine tool spindle. When raising the temperature, the flow path is switched, so that the liquid of the cooling device cannot flow to the machine tool spindle, and the liquid flowing out of the machine tool spindle forms an independent circulation channel, and the supplementary mechanism heats the liquid in the independent circulation channel, achieving the effect of rapid heating.

Hand held machine tool
10840772 · 2020-11-17 · ·

A hand held machine tool for machining workpieces, comprising a housing in which a motor driving a rotor shaft is accommodated, and having an air guide region formed in the housing for supplying cooling air to the motor along a main flow direction oriented substantially parallel to the motor longitudinal axis. The air guidance region is limited at one end by at least one air inlet and at the other end by at least one air outlet for discharging the cooling air from the housing. A separator is arranged in the air guide region for dividing the cooling air into an outer partial air flow flowing around the outer circumference of the motor and into an inner partial air flow flowing through the motor. The separator is formed such that a degree of contamination of the outer partial air flow is greater than a degree of contamination of the inner partial air flow.
