Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of electric tools, in particular to a power adapter for an electric tool.

BACKGROUND

[0002] The electric tool is a machine tool which is powered by a motor and drives different working heads to work through a transmission mechanism. At present, there are many kinds of electric tools on the market, such as electric drills, electric hammers, angle grinders, electric chain saws, electric shrub and hedge trimmers, percussion drills, punching machines, electric circular saws, electric wrenches, electric jig saws and so on.

[0003] Most electric tools are classified into high-voltage electric tools and low-voltage electric tools. The high-voltage electric tool is powered by high-voltage alternating current connected to the power connection wire, such as 220V, 110V and 380V conventional household electricity all over the world. However, since the power connection wire needs to be plugged into the socket for use, there are many restrictions when in use, and the electric tool cannot be used in many scenarios. For example, the electric tool cannot be used when working outdoors. Because there are many restrictions on the high-voltage electric tools, there are currently more and more low-voltage electric tools. The low-voltage electric tool is powered by a light and easy-to-carry lithium battery pack. The battery pack is removable. When the battery pack is out of power, the battery pack needs to be detached for charging. The battery pack cannot work during charging, and the work continuity is poor. Therefore, a power adapter which can be normally used when a low-voltage electric tool is connected to alternating current is needed at present.

[0004] Therefore, a power adapter which can be normally used when a lithium-battery electric tool is connected to alternating current is needed at present.

SUMMARY

[0005] The present disclosure aims to provide a power adapter which is simple in structure and can be normally used when a lithium-battery electric tool is connected to alternating current.

[0006] The purpose of the present disclosure is realized as follows.

[0007] A power adapter for an electric tool includes a main body and a power wire. One end of the power wire is connected with the main body, and the other end of the power wire is provided with a pin for connecting a socket. The main body is provided with a jack for connecting the electric tool. The main body can be connected with a battery pack jack on the electric tool through the jack. The main body is internally provided with a step-down circuit board. The step-down circuit board converts household high-voltage electricity into low-voltage electricity and outputs the low-voltage electricity to the electric tool connected with the step-down circuit board for power supply.

[0008] Further, a fixed buckle is arranged at the jack. The fixed buckle includes a limit buckle and a pressing part. The jack is clamped to the electric tool through the limit buckle. The limit buckle can be driven to move by pressing the pressing part, and the jack is separated from the electric tool.

[0009] Further, the step-down circuit board is provided with a step-down adjusting knob. An adjusting hole is formed in the main body. The part of the step-down adjusting knob is exposed out of the main body from the adjusting hole. The voltage input by the jack can be adjusted by rotating the step-down adjusting knob.

[0010] Further, a power wire interface is formed in the main body. The power wire is provided with a connector. The power wire is detachably connected to the main body through the connector.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present disclosure has the following outstanding and beneficial effects.

[0012] The present disclosure refers to a power adapter used for an electric tool, specifically a power adapter capable of normally used when an electric tool with a battery pack is connected to alternating current. The power adapter for an electric tool is suitable for any electric tool with a battery pack, and is extremely high in applicability without the need of buying additional electric tools, so that the original low-voltage electric tool can be directly connected to alternating current for use when the battery pack is out of power or when there is a power socket nearby. The electric tool can be used not only with a battery pack, but also with a power adapter connected to alternating current. The specific structure of the power adapter includes a main body for accommodating the step-down circuit board. The main body is connected with an input end and an output end. The input end is connected with high-voltage alternating current. The alternating current flows to the step-down circuit board for rectification and transformation, so that 220V alternating current is converted into 12V, 24V or 36V direct current. The converted low-voltage direct current is directly connected with the electric tool through the jack, and the converted output direct current is the same as the original output voltage of the battery pack. Therefore, the power adapter can be used without changing the internal circuit structure of the electric tool, which is very convenient.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the output end can be a connection jack formed on the main body of the adapter, so that the main body of the adapter looks like a battery pack in shape, and the connection jack is also the same as the jack on the battery pack, so that the main body of the adapter can be fixed on the battery pack jack on the electric tool through the connection jack. A power supply connection wire is connected to the main body of the adapter again. The power supply connection wire is an input end for connecting alternating current. The other end of the power supply connection wire is connected with a pin.
