Abstract:
A machining center having at least one door to control access to an enclosure thereof, where access through the door is provided by an unlocked latch, and the latch is unlocked based on wirelessly communicated signals relaying information about at least one operating condition of a fluid driven cutting tool spindle in use within the machining center.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an oscillatingly driven machine tool including a tool spindle that is mounted pivotably about its longitudinal axis, further including a drive motor that is coupled to a hydraulic generator for generating an oscillating fluid flow which drives a hydraulic motor being configured as a rotor blade motor. The rotor blade motor drives the tool spindle in such a way that the tool spindle rotates oscillatingly about its longitudinal axis. The rotor blade motor includes symmetrically arranged rotor blades that are disposed at regular angular distances with respect to each other.
Abstract:
A power tool includes a fluidically-driven prime mover controlled by a multi-stage, throttle-actuated dual-ported mechanism disposed in the power tool. When the first stage is actuated, pressurized fluid is admitted into the prime mover via a first delivery path in fluid communication with one of the ports. When the second stage is actuated, pressurized fluid is also admitted into the prime mover via a second delivery path in fluid communication with the other port to augment the volume of pressurized fluid admitted into the prime mover via the first delivery path. In one embodiment of the present invention, the prime mover includes a dual-chamber air motor. Upon detecting an imminent stall condition, an operator can axially advance a trigger stem to admit a boost of pressurized air into the motor via the second delivery path.
Abstract:
A pneumatic tool having a rotational speed detection device includes a light blocking member mounted on a spindle and a sensor corresponding in position to the light blocking member. The sensor is electrically connected to a counter module. A display is to show a rotational speed. When the spindle starts to spin, the light blocking member will lock the light path of the sensor and the counter module will record the number of the times to count the rotational speed to be showed on the display, thus the user may read the rotational speed and make an adjustment on an air flow control module as necessary till the rotational speed reaches the desired speed.
Abstract:
A pneumatic impact tool and method includes a cylinder pipe or housing closed with a cover, as well as an impact piston that forms a first pressure chamber between an impact plate and the impact piston, and a second pressure chamber between the cover and the impact piston. The cover is provided with at least one opening, the surface of which is smaller than the piston surface, whereby the impact piston seals the opening when it is in its fully retracted position.
Abstract:
A hand tool that is preferably hydraulically actuable includes a working head and a body unit that remains in place with respect to the head, drive elements for driving the working head being provided in the body unit, for example a hydraulic pump and a hydraulic supply, a switching movement also allowing a powered movement of one or more working parts of the working head to be triggered and the working head being swivelably connected to the body unit in a rotary connection region. In order to configure and develop a hand tool so that safe working is assured by virtue of unambiguous and clear handling, by swivelling of the body unit relative to the working head about an axis of rotation provided in the region of the rotary connection of the working head to the body unit, switching over can be carried out with regard to the powered movement of the working part.
Abstract:
In a liquid downhole drilling machine, the guiding bushing (31) for the drill bit is rotatably journaled in the housing (11, 12) and, via a one-way coupling (29), coupled to a turning sleeve (22) that has axial ridges (24) that bound a number of chambers (25, 26, 27) and form turning pistons for turning the turnable sleeve to and fro. A number of these chambers are coupled to be pressurized and depressurized simultaneously with said pressure chamber (47) with the piston area (46) for urging the piston hammer (30) forwards. As a result, the drill bit (13) will be indexed a defined angle between each impact so that the button inserts of the drill bit will change contact points with the rock between every impact and fragment the rock efficiently. The drill tube is not rotated.
Abstract:
A rotor for a pneumatic tool having electricity-generating capabilities comprises a shaft and an integral rotor body. For the most part, the rotor is generally of conventional design for a pneumatic tool, able to receive vanes on the rotor body and having gear teeth on the shaft. However, the rotor body further includes recesses dimensioned to received an insulated subassembly comprising a magnet received within a nonmagnetic insulator. The nonmagnetic insulator acts to allow flux to be concentrated against stator windings. The improved rotor can be used in a conventional pneumatic tool, but can also be fitted with the insulated subassemblies in order to cooperate with a stator in the tool to generate electricity upon rotation of the rotor when pressurized fluid is applied to the vanes. Thus, the differences between a conventional pneumatic tool rotor and its electricity-generating counterpart are greatly reduced compared to prior art configurations. A ring stator is connected to a supporting circuit by a connector and is supportable by a nonmagnetic end plate of the pneumatic tool. The ring stator is disposed between the rotor and the rotor bearing and is preferably formed of Silicon Core Iron “B-FM” and magnet wire.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a motor for an air-tool. More particularly, the present invention is directed to an air driven motor in which the rotor has a plurality of recesses formed between each pair of adjacent vane holding slots. A separator fine is fixed in each recess. Each vane of the rotor is radially displaceable and outwardly biased to expose a compressed air contact surface area. The separator fins add additional compressed air contact surface areas.
Abstract:
A threading attachment for internal or external threading includes a spindle head (1) which is intended to be attached to a spindle on a machine tool and also a tap holder (5) with a holder body (6) in which a tap (13) is arranged during the threading work, the spindle head (1) and the tap holder (5) being extended along a joint axle. The tap holder (5) and the holder body (6) respectively have in threading position a power transmitting connection to the spindle head (1) via driving members (15, 16 and 28, 29, respectively) and have in back out position freely rotatable in relation to the spindle head (1) and arranged to be effected by a compressed medium via a driving member (18). The driving member can be a reaction turbine or an action turbine.
