Embodiment

(8) A low-noise hydraulic hammer 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention has the same structure as that of the related art in that an impact bar 200 is formed in a striking part 300 and inserted into a receiving part 120 in a piston 100 as shown in FIG. 3.

(9) In other words, the impact bar 200 protrudes from a tip of the striking part 300 to crush a workpiece, so that the impact bar 200 is inserted into the piston 100.

(10) In this case, as the piston 100 is moved down, a contact part 130 of the receiving part 120 strikes the impact bar 200 so that the striking part 300 is moved forward and backward.

(11) According to the present invention, both inner lateral sides of the receiving part 120 are inclined so that the diameter of the receiving part 120 is increased toward the impact bar 200. To this end, as shown in FIG. 3, the thickness of the receiving part 120 is reduced toward the impact bar 200, so that an inclination surface 150 is formed as shown in FIG. 3.

(12) Meanwhile, the impact bar 200 received in the receiving part 120 is formed with the diameter reduced toward the receiving part 120 and thus spaced apart from both inner lateral sides of the receiving part 120 by a specific distance.

(13) In other words, as shown in FIG. 3, the receiving part 120 has the diameter increased downward and the impact bar 200 has the diameter reduced upward. Accordingly, when viewed in the whole appearance, the outer surface of the impact bar 200 is spaced apart from the inner surface of the receiving part 120 by a predetermined distance.

(14) According to the present invention, even if the striking part 300 is moved forward and backward while forming an inclination angle, the impact bar 200 does not make mutual contact with the inside of the receiving part 120 so that scratches are prevented, differently from that of the related art. Accordingly, cracks are prevented, differently from that of the related art, so that the durability and strength can be improved.

(15) In addition, as described above, since the thickness of the piston 100 is reduced due to the inner inclination surface 150 of the piston 100, the weight of the piston 100 is reduced, so that the durability may be improved.

(16) Meanwhile, the contact part 130 serving as the bottom surface of the receiving part 120 and making contact with the impact bar 200 protrudes toward the impact bar 200 by a predetermined height, and both sides of the contact part 130 may have buffer grooves 140 curved with a predetermined curvature as shown in FIG. 3.

(17) In other words, as shown in FIG. 3, due to the contact part 130 according to the present invention more protruding downward by a distance L when comparing with that of the related art, heat may be more efficiently radiated when the contact part 130 and the top surface of the impact bar 200 strike each other.

(18) The buffer grooves 140 curved with the predetermined curvature are formed at both sides of the contact part 130 to prevent the transfer of an impact wave when impact occurs. In other words, if the buffer grooves 140 are not formed, the impact wave formed due to the impact between the contact part 130 and the impact bar 200 is propagated to the entire portion of the piston 100. However, the buffer grooves 140 according to the present invention prevent the transfer of the impact wave, so that the strength may be improved.

(19) Meanwhile, the buffer grooves 140 may prevent stress from being concentrated when due to the rapid change of the sectional surface thereof when formed with the predetermined curvature as described above. The buffer grooves 140 may be formed at left and right sides of the contact part 130, respectively, as shown in FIG. 3 (see reference numerals 141 and 142).

(20) A noise insulating material 160 may be provided on one inner lateral side of the receiving part 120. In other words, as the impact bar 200 is inserted into the receiving part 120 and noise is caused due to the impact between the impact bar 200 and the receiving part 120, the noise insulating material 160 is provided on one inner lateral side of the receiving part 120 to prevent noise from being propagated.

(21) Meanwhile, the noise insulating material 160 may include various materials in various shapes as well-known to those skilled in the art.

(22) Meanwhile, a plurality of steps 220 for the attenuation of noise may be formed on an outer lateral side of the impact bar 200.

(23) In other words, as shown in FIG. 3, when the steps 220 are formed with various heights on a portion of the outer lateral side of the impact bar 200, noises are mutually attenuated, so that a noise reduction effect may be improved.

(24) In this case, the steps 220 may have a step shape, a pointed tip shape, or a curved tip shape.

(25) In other words, the steps 220 for the attenuation of the noise according to the present invention aim at the noise reduction resulting from mutually attenuation of noises. Accordingly, as long as the steps 220 achieve the noise reduction, the steps 220 may have various shapes within the scope of the present invention.

(26) Meanwhile, a contact surface 230 serving as an outer surface of the impact bar 200 and facing a bottom surface 110a of the piston 100 may be formed to be spaced apart from the bottom surface 110a by a predetermined distance when the contact part 130 of the receiving part 120 strikes the impact bar 200.

(27) As described above, the impact bar 200 is formed in such a manner that the contact surface 230 of the impact bar 200 faces the bottom surface 110a of the piston 100 at a predetermined distance from the bottom surface 110a when the impact bar 200 is inserted into the receiving part 120 of the piston 100, and the contact part 130 of the piston 100 strikes the impact bar 200. Accordingly, the noise of the receiving part 120 may be attenuated when discharged to the outside.

(28) A buffer part 400 is further provided between the bottom surface 110a and the contact surface 230, and may include a spring.

(29) In other words, although the bottom surface 110a of the piston 100 and the contact surface 230 of the impact bar 200 may be formed to be spaced apart from each other, the bottom surface 110a may strike the contact surface 230 due to the elastic deformation of the piston 100 when impact occurs. Accordingly, since impact may occur, the impact may be buffered by the buffer 400 employing the spring.

(30) In this case, the above-described buffer part 400 may employ the spring as shown in drawings, and may have the shape of a porous cylinder having a specific sectional surface and formed of an elastic material.

(31) As described above, the above impact is reduced by the buffer part 400 to prevent noise and improve durability.

(32) Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 4, a plurality of heat sinks 500 may be provided on the inner lateral sides of the receiving part 120 or on the outer lateral sides of the impact bar 200.

(33) In other words, the heat sink 500 has a wide surface area to easily radiate heat as well-known to those skilled in the art.

(34) According to the present invention, as described above, a plurality of heat sinks 510 and 520 are provided on the inner lateral sides of the receiving part 120 or the outer lateral sides of the impact bar 200, so that heat emitted from the piston 100 and the impact bar 200 may be easily radiated toward the receiving part 120.

(35) The heat emitted from the piston 100 and the heat sink 500 may be effectively removed by the heat sink 500 according to the present invention so that the strength and the durability may be improved.

(36) Meanwhile, the heat sinks 500 may be formed with mutually different heights. In other words, as described above, the heat sinks 500 are formed on the inner lateral sides of the receiving part 120 or the outer lateral sides of the impact bar 200, and the space defined by the lateral sides is used to propagate noise. Accordingly, if the heat sinks 500 are formed with mutually different heights as described above, noises are mutually cancelled from each other, so that the noise reduction may be increased.

(37) As described above, although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail for the illustrative purpose, the present invention is not limited thereto, and it should be understood that modifications or variations can be devised by those skilled in the art that will fall within the spirit and scope of the principles of the disclosure.

(38) The simple modifications or variations fall within the scope of the present invention, and the detailed protection scope of the present invention will be clearly defined by appended claims.
