Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The invention relates to an electric grinding machine tool, in particular to an electric grinding machine tool with a reduced gravity center of a grip body.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] It is found that US 2020230796A, US 2006068689A and US 2018056473A have disclosed configurations of internal components of an electric grinding machine tool. An internal structure of a conventional electric grinding machine tool 50, as depicted in Fig. 1 herein, comprises a grip body 51, and the grip body 51 includes a tool shaft 511 arranged in the grip body 51 and assembled with the grinding disc 52, a driving component 512 arranged in the grip body 51 and driving the tool shaft 511 when receiving power, and a circuit board 513 arranged in the grip body 51 to connect with the driving component 512 and the battery 53. Here, since the circuit board 513 is conventionally arranged at a top end 515 of the tool shaft 511, the internal components of the electric grinding machine tool 50 appear a modality of linear up-down configuration. That is, conventionally, a height 514 of the grip body 51 is equal to the sum of a height of the circuit board 513, a height of the tool shaft 511, and a height of the top of the grip body 51. However, the conventional configuration is deficient in that the gravity center of the grip body 51 cannot be lowered due to the high height 514 of the grip body 51, and the grip body 51 is liable to be unstable and topple over when a user operates and moves the electric grinding machine tool 50. The electric grinding machine tool 50 is more difficult to be stably controlled, especially when the user operates the electric grinding machine tool 50 to grind an upright plate surface.

[0003] On the other hand, since the circuit board 513 is conventionally arranged on the top end of the tool shaft 511, the circuit board 513 is arranged on a side of the grip body 51 close to the palm of the user. In operation of the electric grinding machine tool 50, the circuit board 513 receives power to generate heat energy, so that a temperature of the side of the grip body 51 close to the palm of the user is increased. When the electric grinding machine tool 50 is used for a long time, the circuit board 513 transfers a large amount of heat energy to the grip body 51, making it difficult for the user to hold the grip body 51, thereby affecting the grinding operation.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Further, a board surface of the circuit board is not perpendicular to the tool shaft, the circuit board and the battery mount are respectively positioned on opposite sides of the tool shaft, and a line passes through the circuit board, the battery mount, and the tool shaft.

[0007] In an embodiment, the grip body is formed with a plurality of ventilation holes forming a air passage passing through the circuit board.

[0008] In an embodiment, the grip body is formed with a plurality of ventilation holes forming a first air passage passing through the circuit board and a second air passage flowing at a side of the driving component which does not face the circuit board.

[0010] In an embodiment, the electric grinding machine tool comprises an assembled shell arranged in the grip body and provided with the driving component arranged therein, and the assembled shell comprises a pipe body, and two covers respectively arranged at two sides of the pipe body.

[0011] In an embodiment, the tool shaft is arranged with a counterweight body, and a fan blade mounted on the counterweight body and rotating synchronously with the tool shaft.

[0012] In an embodiment, the counterweight body is provided with a first counterweight part and a second counterweight part which are configured up and down, the second counterweight part is relatively eccentric to the first counterweight part, and the fan blade is arranged on the second counterweight part.

[0013] In an embodiment, the grip body is formed with at least one opening respectively facing the counterweight body at an end of the grip body close to the grinding disc.

[0014] In an embodiment, the grip body defines a side on which the circuit board is arranged as a front side, and the electric grinding machine tool has an operation panel arranged on the front side of the grip body and electrically connected with the circuit board.

[0015] In an embodiment, the grip body has, on an inner wall surface, a receiving space facing the driving component and providing an arrangement for the circuit board.

[0018] In an embodiment, the battery mount has an insertion opening, and an insertion opening direction of the insertion opening is parallel to the tool shaft.

[0019] According to above-mentioned disclosure of the invention, compared with a conventional use, the invention has the following characteristics. By changing the position of the circuit board, the circuit board is arranged on the other side of the tool shaft which does not face the battery mount, and the board surface of the circuit board is set not to be perpendicular to the tool shaft. Therefore, the height of the grip body is about the sum of the height of the tool shaft and the height of the upper portion of the grip body, and is lower than that of a conventional grip body, so that the gravity center of the grip body can be reduced, and a user can operate the grip body more stably. On the other hand, since the circuit board is no longer arranged on a side of the tool shaft which does not face the grinding disc, the operation of the user is not influenced due to the temperature rise of the circuit board when the user grabs the grip body.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0021] The detailed description and technical contents of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings as follows.

[0022] Referring to Fig. 2, Fig. 3, Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, the present invention provides an electric grinding machine tool 10 comprising a grip body 11, a grinding disc 15, and a battery 16. In an embodiment, the grip body 11 comprises a head 111, a neck 112 and a shoulder 113, wherein the head 111 is provided for a user to grip so as to control the grip body 11. Further, the neck 112 extends from a side of the head 111, and the diameter of the neck 112 is smaller than the head 111 and the shoulder 113. In addition, the shoulder 113 is connected to the neck 112 and extends toward a direction where the neck 112 does not face the head 111, and the diameter of the shoulder 113 gradually increases from a side where the shoulder 113 next to the neck 112 toward a side of the shoulder 113 which is opposite to the neck 112, so that the shoulder 113 shows a trumpet shape. Also, the grinding disc 15 is arranged at a side of the shoulder 113 where is not connected to the neck 112.

[0023] Further, the grip body 11 further comprises a tool shaft 114, a driving component 115, and a circuit board 116. Specifically, the tool shaft 114 is arranged in the grip body 11, and an end of the tool shaft 114 is assembled with the grinding disc 15. In an embodiment, the grinding disc 15 comprises a body 151 and an assembly part 152 connected with the body 151, and the tool shaft 114 is connected with the assembly part 152. In addition, in an embodiment, the tool shaft 114 includes a counterweight body 117 to be configured to face at an end of the grinding disc 15, and the counterweight body 117 includes a first counterweight part 118 and a second counterweight part 119 which are configured up and down, the second counterweight part 119 is arranged below the first counterweight part 118, and the second counterweight part 119 is relatively eccentric to the first counterweight part 118. Accordingly, by the arrangement of the counterweight body 117, the tool shaft 114 drives the grinding disc 15 to produce an eccentric rotational route. On the other hand, the driving component 115 is assembled with the tool shaft 114 so as to be located in the grip body 11, the driving component 115 can be an electric motor, and the driving component 115 receives power to drive the tool shaft 114 to rotate. In addition, the circuit board 116 is electrically connected with the driving component 115 and the battery 16, and the circuit board 116 is used for controlling the operation of the driving component 115. In the embodiment, the circuit board 116 is fixed to an inner wall surface of the grip body 11, so that the circuit board 116 is arranged at the position of the neck 112 of the grip body 11. In more detail, the circuit board 116 includes an extension direction 120 along a board surface which is a plane that the circuit board 116 is laid with electronic components, the extension direction 120 of the circuit board 116 is not perpendicular to the tool shaft 114. In an embodiment, the extension direction 120 of the circuit board 116 is arranged parallel to the tool shaft 114 to reduce a grip body height 101 of the grip body 11. On the other hand, the grip body 11 includes a battery mount 121 which the surface is exposed for assembling the battery 16, so that the power of the battery 16 is transmitted to the circuit board 116 via the battery mount 121. Also, the battery mount 121 is arranged on a side of the tool shaft 114 that does not face the circuit board 116, i.e., the battery mount 121 and the circuit board 116 are located on opposite sides, respectively, so that a line 122 passes through the circuit board 116, the battery mount 121 and the tool shaft 114.

[0024] Accordingly, by changing the position of the circuit board 116, the present invention allows the grip body height 101 of the grip body 11 to be reduced by a height of the circuit board 116, which is approximately equal to the sum of a height of the tool shaft 114 and an upper height of the grip body 11, thereby reducing the grip body height 101 of the grip body 11 and achieving the purpose of reducing the gravity center of the grip body 11. According to the invention, when a user operates the electric grinding machine tool 10, due to the fact that a gravity center of the grip body 11 is lowered, the grip body 11 is not prone to toppling over and is more stably close to a grinding surface when being displaced by operation. In particular, when the user grinds a vertical plate surface, the user does not need to apply a large amount of force to control the grip body against action of gravity, so that the grip body 11 is brought close to the plate surface, and a grinding quality of the electric grinding machine tool 10 is improved so as for the user to operate conveniently. Furthermore, since the circuit board 116 of the invention is no longer arranged on the head 111 of the grip body 11, the user cannot be affected by a temperature of the circuit board 116 while griping the head 111, thereby facilitating the operation of the user.

For example, the plurality of ventilation holes 123 are arranged on opposite sides of the grip body 11, and the plurality of ventilation holes 123 located on one side of the grip body 11 allow an external air entering the grip body 11, passing through the circuit board 116, and then being discharged through the plurality of ventilation holes 123 located on the other side of the grip body 11, thereby allowing the circuit board 116 to dissipate heat. In another embodiment, the plurality of ventilation holes 123 is located on a position between the driving component 115 and the battery mount 121, so that the plurality of ventilation holes 123 forms a second air passage 127 passing through the driving component 115.
