Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Elektrowerkzeuggerät, insbesondere Meissel-, Bohr- oder Kombihammer, der im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 genannten Art. Ein solches Elektrowerkzeuggerät ist beispielweise aus
Im Betrieb solcher Elektrowerkzeuggeräte erzeugen der Antriebsmotor, das Schlagwerk, das Getriebe sowie eine allenfalls vorhandene Elektronik als wärmeerzeugende Bestandteile Wärme, die zur Verhinderung einer Überhitzung des Elektrowerkzeuggeräts beziehungsweise der wärmeerzeugenden Bestandteile abgeführt werden muss. Mittels eines Lüfterelements wird im Aussengehäuse ein Kühlluftstrom erzeugt. Über Ansaugöffnungen im Aussengehäuse wird Frischluft ansaugt und über die im Betrieb wärmeerzeugenden Bestandteile des Elektrowerkzeuggeräts geführt. Anschliessend wird die erwärmte Luft über Ausblasöffnungen im Aussengehäuse wieder ausgeblasen.In the operation of such power tools generate the drive motor, the percussion mechanism, the transmission and any existing electronics as heat-generating components heat that must be dissipated to prevent overheating of the power tool or the heat-generating components. By means of a fan element, a cooling air flow is generated in the outer housing. Fresh air is drawn in via suction openings in the outer housing and routed through the heat generating components of the power tool device during operation. Subsequently, the heated air is blown out through exhaust openings in the outer housing again.
Im Bereich des Schlagwerks entsteht durch die Stossvorgänge, die Wandreibung der Stosspartner und durch den Wärmeübergang aus der Luftfeder in das Gerät im Kompressionsfall eine Wärmeentwicklung auf einem hohen Temperaturniveau. Abgesehen von der hohen thermischen Belastung des Schlagwerks dient der Bereich des Elektrowerkzeuggeräts auch zur Führung beziehungsweise zum Halten desselben. Um die Berührungstemperatur in diesem Bereich niedrig zu halten wird beispielsweise das metallische Schlagwerksgehäuse mittels einer zusätzlichen Gehäuseschale aus Kunststoff isoliert.In the area of the percussion mechanism, the shock processes, the wall friction of the shock partners and the heat transfer from the air spring into the device in the event of compression result in heat generation at a high temperature level. Apart from the high thermal load of the striking mechanism, the area of the power tool also serves to guide or hold the same. In order to keep the contact temperature in this range low, for example, the metal impact mechanism housing is insulated by means of an additional housing shell made of plastic.
Nachteilig an der bekannten Lösung ist, dass die zusätzliche Gehäuseschale nur bedingt für den Betrieb auf einer Baustelle ausreichend robust ist und oftmals konstruktiv besondere Anforderungen stellt. Zudem entstehen zusätzliche Herstellungskosten.A disadvantage of the known solution is that the additional housing shell is only sufficiently robust for operation on a construction site and often constructively makes special demands. In addition, additional manufacturing costs.
Aus der
Nachteilig an der bekannten Lösung ist, dass das Schlagwerk am Ende der Kühlkette steht und die Kühlluft bereits von den anderen wärmeerzeugenden Bestandteilen des Elektrowerkzeuggeräts erhitzt wurde. Liegt die Temperatur des Kühlluftstroms nach dem Kühlen der anderen wärmeerzeugenden Bestandteile bereits auf einem hohen Niveau, wird des Schlagwerk mittels der, durch den Kühlluftkanal geleiteten bereits erwärmten Kühlluft kaum mehr gekühlt oder im Extremfall sogar durch diese zusätzlich aufgeheizt. Die Lebensdauer des Schlagwerks reduziert sich, da kritische Schmier- und Dichträume thermisch überlastet werden.A disadvantage of the known solution is that the impact mechanism is at the end of the cold chain and the cooling air has already been heated by the other heat-generating components of the power tool. If the temperature of the cooling air flow is already at a high level after the cooling of the other heat-generating constituents, the impact mechanism is barely cooled by means of the already heated cooling air conducted through the cooling air duct or, in the extreme case, even heated by it. The lifetime of the striking mechanism is reduced because critical lubrication and sealing areas are thermally overloaded.
Aus der
Obwohl die in diesem Elektrowerkzeuggerät vorhandene Kühlung der wärmeerzeugenden Bestandteile des Elektrowerkzeuggeräts in einer vorteilhaften Art gelöst ist, besteht weiterhin das Bedürfnis die Kühlung derselben zu verbessern. Da zwei separate Kühlluftströme von einem Lüfterelement erzeugt werden, weist das Lüfterelement einen hohen Energiebedarf auf oder es werden zumindest zwei Lüfterelemente benötigt. Des Weiteren bedingt diese Lösung zur Kühlung des Elektrowerkzeuggeräts Trennwände im Aussengehäuse des Elektrowerkzeuggeräts um einen Luftkurzschluss zwischen den Kühlluftströmen zu verhindern.Although the existing in this power tool cooling the heat-generating components of the power tool device is solved in an advantageous manner, there is still the need to improve the cooling of the same. Since two separate cooling air streams are generated by a fan element, the fan element has a high energy requirement or at least two fan elements are required. Furthermore, this requires Cooling solution of the power tool device Partitions in the outer casing of the power tool to prevent air short circuit between the cooling air streams.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Elektrowerkzeuggerät mit einem Schlagwerk gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 zu schaffen, das einfach zu fertigen ist und mit einem, vorteilhaft einen geringen Energieverbrauch aufweisenden Lüfterelement die Kühlung des gesamten Elektrowerkzeuggeräts und insbesondere des Schlagwerks sicherstellt.The object of the invention is to provide a power tool with a striking mechanism according to the preamble of
Die Aufgabe ist durch die Merkmale des unabhängigen Anspruchs gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind in den Unteransprüchen dargelegt.The object is solved by the features of the independent claim. Advantageous developments are set forth in the subclaims.
Gemäss der Erfindung weist der Kühlluftkanal eine Verengung seines Querschnitts auf und es ist ein Frischluftkanal vorgesehen, der einerseits über eine Ansaugöffnung im Aussengehäuse mit der Atmosphäre und andererseits über eine Verbindungsöffnung mit dem Kühlluftkanal in Verbindung steht. Die Verbindungsöffnung ist im Bereich der Verengung des Kühlluftkanals angeordnet.According to the invention, the cooling air duct has a constriction of its cross section and a fresh air duct is provided, which communicates with the atmosphere on the one hand via an intake opening in the outer housing and on the other hand via a connection opening with the cooling air duct. The connection opening is arranged in the region of the constriction of the cooling air channel.
Durch die Verengung beziehungsweise Verjüngung des Kühlluftkanals wird an der Stelle, an welcher die Verbindungsöffnung des Frischluftkanals angeordnet ist, ein statischer Druck erzielt, der unter dem barometrischen Umgebungsdruck ausserhalb der zumindest einen Ansaugöffnung liegt (analog einer Venturi-Düse). Mittels des erzeugten Unterdrucks wird durch den Frischluftkanal passiv Umgebungsluft angesaugt und über den Kühlluftkanal zu den Ausblasöffnungen weitergetragen. Das Ansaugen von Frischluft durch den Frischluftkanal und die Kühlung der im Kühlluftkanal vorbeiströmenden, erwärmte, Kühlluft erfolgt, ohne die Anordnung von zusätzlichen Lüfterelementen oder die Ausbildung von mehrkanaligen Kühlluftströmen zum Lüfterelement auf der Druckseite des Lüfterelements beziehungsweise stromabwärts von dem Lüfterelement. Die Temperatur des von den übrigen wärmeerzeugenden Bestandteilen erwärmten Kühlluftstroms wird dabei wesentlich gesenkt. Obwohl das Schlagwerk in der Kühlkette am Ende steht, erhöht sich infolge der passiven Zuführung von Frischluft und die daraus resultierende Reduktion des Temperaturniveaus des Kühlluftstroms im Bereich des Schlagwerks die Lebensdauer des Schlagwerks, da die Schmier- und Dichträume geringern thermischen Belastungen ausgesetzt sind. Des Weiteren senkt sich die Berührungstemperatur im Bereich des Schlagwerks auf ein erträgliches Niveau, so dass keine weiteren konstruktive Massnahmen, wie die Anordnung von zusätzlichen Gehäuseschalen erforderlich sind, um die Bedienungsfreundlichkeit des Elektrowerkzeuggeräts zu verbessern oder Zulassungsnormen zu erfüllen.Due to the constriction or narrowing of the cooling air channel, a static pressure is achieved at the point at which the connection opening of the fresh air channel is arranged, which is below the barometric ambient pressure outside the at least one suction opening (analogous to a venturi nozzle). By means of the generated negative pressure passively ambient air is sucked through the fresh air duct and carried on the cooling air duct to the exhaust openings. The intake of fresh air through the fresh air duct and the cooling of the cooling air duct flowing past, heated, cooling air takes place without the arrangement of additional fan elements or the formation of multi-channel cooling air flows to the fan element on the pressure side of the fan element or downstream of the fan element. The temperature of the heated by the other heat-generating components cooling air flow is thereby significantly reduced. Although the impact mechanism in the cold chain is at the end, due to the passive supply of fresh air and the resulting reduction in the temperature level of the cooling air flow in the impact mechanism, the life of the percussion mechanism increases because the lubrication and sealing chambers are exposed to less thermal stress. Furthermore, the contact temperature in the percussion area lowers to a tolerable level, so that no further constructive measures, such as the arrangement of additional housing shells are required to improve the ease of use of the power tool or to meet approval standards.
Vorzugsweise verringert sich der Querschnitt des Kühlluftkanals von zumindest einem Ende des Kühlluftkanals bis zur Verengung, an welcher der Querschnitt des Kühlluftkanals am stärksten verjüngt ist, hin stetig beziehungsweise kontinuierlich, womit die Strömungsverluste innerhalb des Kühlluftkanals trotz der Verengung des Querschnitts desselben gering gehalten werden. Vorteilhafterweise nimmt die Verengung des Querschnitts des Kühlluftkanals von dem Kühlluftstrom-aufwärts liegenden Ende des Kühlluftkanals stetig zu und nach der Einmündung der Verbindungsöffnung in den Kühlluftkanal bis zum anderen, Kühlluftstrom-abwärts liegenden Ende des Kühlluftkanals stetig wieder ab. Des Weiteren weisen insbesondere im Bereich der Verengung, in dem eine hohe Strömungsgeschwindigkeit herrscht, die Oberflächen der entsprechenden Kanalabschnitte eine geringe Wandrauhigkeit auf, um unerwünschte Druckverluste zu minimieren.Preferably, the cross-section of the cooling air channel decreases from at least one end of the cooling air channel to the constriction, at which the cross-section of the cooling air channel is most tapered towards continuously or continuously, whereby the flow losses within the cooling air channel are kept small despite the narrowing of the cross section. Advantageously, the constriction of the cross section of the cooling air channel steadily decreases from the cooling air flow upstream end of the cooling air channel to and after the junction of the connection opening in the cooling air channel to the other, cooling air flow downstream end of the cooling air channel. Furthermore, especially in the region of the constriction, in which a high flow velocity prevails, the surfaces of the corresponding channel sections have a low wall roughness in order to minimize undesired pressure losses.
Bevorzugt ist ein Einlegeelement zur Schaffung der Verengung des Querschnitts des Kühlluftkanals im Kühlluftkanal vorgesehen. Zur Ausbildung des zumindest einen, parallel zur Längserstreckung des Schlagwerks verlaufenden Kühlluftkanals wird beispielsweise das Schlagwerk zumindest bereichsweise mit einem Abstand zum Aussengehäuse angeordnet. Das Einlegeelement wird z. B. vor der Montage des Aussengehäuses im Bereich, der im zusammengeführten Zustand des Elektrowerkzeuggerätes den zumindest einen Kühlluftkanal bildet, ausgerichtet festgelegt. In einer weiteren Ausführung ist das Gehäuse des Schlagwerks aus einem stranggepressten Profil gebildet, in dem zumindest ein Kühlluftkanal ausgebildet ist. Beispielsweise mittels entsprechender Nacharbeiten wird die erforderliche Verengung des Querschnitts des Kühlluftkanals an der gewünschten Stelle in demselben geschaffen.Preferably, an insert element for creating the constriction of the cross section of the cooling air passage in the cooling air passage is provided. To form the at least one, parallel to the longitudinal extent of the percussion running cooling air duct, for example, the impact mechanism is arranged at least partially with a distance from the outer housing. The insert element is z. B. prior to assembly of the outer housing in the area, which forms the at least one cooling air channel aligned in the merged state of the power tool device. In a further embodiment, the housing of the striking mechanism is formed from an extruded profile, in which at least one cooling air channel is formed. For example, by means of appropriate reworking the required constriction of the cross section of the cooling air duct is created at the desired location in the same.
Vorzugsweise ist die Verbindungsöffnung kleiner als die Ansaugöffnung ausgebildet, so dass durch die im Kühlluftkanal strömende Kühlluft das passive Ansaugen von Umgebungsluft durch den Frischluftkanal unterstützt wird. Damit wird eine noch bessere Kühlung des Schlagwerks gewährleistet. Vorteilhaft ist der Querschnitt der Verbindungsöffnung zudem wesentlich kleiner als der Querschnitt im Bereich der Verengung des Kühlluftkanals ausgebildet. Des Weiteren wird ein vorteilhaftes Ansaugverhalten erreicht, wenn die Verbindungsöffnung bei der Einmündung scharfkantig, jedoch gratfrei ausgebildet ist. Neben einer senkrechten Anordnung der zumindest einen Ansaugöffnung zur Aussenseite des Aussengehäuses können diese auch schräg, in einem Winkel zwischen 0° und 90° zur Aussenseite des Aussengehäuses angeordnet sein. Auch die Verbindungsöffnung muss nicht zwingend senkrecht zur Längserstreckung des Kühlluftkanals ausgerichtet verlaufen. Zur Minimierung der Strömungsverluste werden Umlenkungen vorteilhaft rund verlaufend oder durch Schrägen abgewinkelt ausgebildet.Preferably, the connection opening is smaller than the suction opening, so that the passive suction of ambient air through the fresh air channel is supported by the cooling air flowing in the cooling air passage. This ensures even better cooling of the impact mechanism. In addition, the cross section of the connection opening is advantageously designed to be substantially smaller than the cross section in the region of the constriction of the cooling air channel. Furthermore, an advantageous intake behavior is achieved if the connection opening at the junction is sharp-edged, but burr-free. In addition to a vertical arrangement of the at least one suction opening to the outside of the outer housing, these can also be arranged obliquely, at an angle between 0 ° and 90 ° to the outside of the outer housing. The connection opening does not necessarily have to be aligned perpendicular to the longitudinal extent of the cooling air duct. To minimize the Flow losses are deflections advantageous round running or angled by sloping formed.
Bevorzugt weist der Frischluftkanal einen im Wesentlichen parallel zum Kühlluftkanal verlaufenden Abschnitt auf, womit im Betrieb anfallendes Abbaumaterial beziehungsweise anfallender Staub nicht direkt in den Kühlluftkanal eindringen kann. Zudem lässt sich ein im Wesentlichen parallel zum Kühlluftkanal verlaufenden Abschnitt einfach fertigen.The fresh air duct preferably has a section extending substantially parallel to the cooling air duct, with which removal material or accumulating dust during operation can not penetrate directly into the cooling air duct. In addition, a section extending substantially parallel to the cooling air channel can be easily manufactured.
Vorzugsweise ist jedem Kühlluftkanal zumindest ein Frischluftkanal zugeordnet, so dass eine ausreichende Menge von kühler Umgebungsluft zuführbar und damit eine ausreichende Kühlung des Schlagwerks gewährleistet ist. Bei dieser Ausführungsform ist auch eine ausreichende Kühlung gewährleistet, wenn z. B. einzelne Ansaugöffnungen durch manuelles Verschliessen oder durch Abbaumaterial beziehungsweise Staub verschlossen sind.Preferably, each cooling air channel is assigned at least one fresh air channel, so that a sufficient amount of cool ambient air can be supplied and thus sufficient cooling of the percussion mechanism is ensured. In this embodiment, a sufficient cooling is ensured when z. B. individual suction through manual closure or by decomposition material or dust are closed.

Jeder Kühlluftkanal 18 weist eine Verengung 21 des Querschnitts des Kühlluftkanals 18 auf, wobei die Verbindungsöffnung 33 im Bereich der grössten Verengung 21 des Querschnitts angeordnet ist. Die Verengung 21 steigt stetig von dem Kühlluftstrom-aufwärts liegenden Ende 22 bis zum Bereich mit der grössten Verengung des Querschnitts des Kühlluftkanals 18 an und nimmt anschliessend von diesem stetig beziehungsweise kontinuierlich bis zum Kühlluftstrom-abwärts liegenden Ende 23 ab.Each cooling
Im Betrieb des Elektrowerkzeuggerätes 11 wird mittels des Lüfterelements 19 Umgebungsluft durch die Luftöffnungen 27 angesaugt, wobei der erzeugte Kühlluftstrom 26 zur Kühlung des Antriebsmotors 13 und des Getriebes 14 dieselben umspült. Die erwärmte Kühlluft wird durch die Kühlluftkanäle 18 geführt und über die Ausblasöffnungen 28 ausgeblasen. Infolge der Verengung 21 in den Kühlluftkanälen 18 wird ein Unterdruck gegenüber dem barometrischen Umgebungsdruck ausserhalb des Elektrowerkzeuggerätes 11 erzeugt und durch die Frischluftkanäle 31 Umgebungsluft passiv angesaugt, welche sich mit der erwärmten Kühlluft im Kühlluftkanal 18 vermischt, wobei das Temperaturniveau der zuvor erwärmten Kühlluft absenkt wird.During operation of the

Der Frischluftkanal 61 weist einen in einem Winkel α zur Längserstreckung des Kühlluftkanals 48 verlaufenden Abschnitt 64 auf. Die Verbindungsöffnung 63 weist auch in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel einen kleineren Querschnitt als die Summe der Querschnitte der Ansaugöffnungen 62 auf und ist beabstandet zu den Enden des Abschnitts 64 im Bereich der grössten Verengung 51 des Querschnitts des Kühlluftkanals 48 angeordnet. Die Ansaugöffnungen 62 sind in einem Winkel β zu der Aussenseite 55 des Aussengehäuses 42 angeordnet. Die Grösse des Querschnitts des Frischluftkanals 61 entspricht im Wesentlichen der Summe der Grösse der Querschnitte der Ansaugöffnungen 62. Durch die geneigte Anordnung einerseits der Ansaugöffnungen 62 und andererseits des Frischluftkanals 61 ist eine für das Strömungsverhalten vorteilhafte Umlenkung 66 zwischen den Ansaugöffnungen 62 und dem Frischluftkanal 61 vorhanden.Further, each cooling
