1. Field of the Invention
[0001] The present invention relates to a pneumatic tool, and more particularly to a torque-adjustable
pneumatic tool.
2. Description of Related Art
[0002] With reference to Fig. 22, a conventional pneumatic tool 70 substantially comprises
a body 71, a driving device 72, a trigger assembly 73, and a silencer 74. The body
71 has a holding chamber 711, a trigger chamber 712, an inlet channel 713, and an
outlet channel 714. The trigger chamber 712 is adjacent to the holding chamber 711
and extends laterally. The inlet channel 713 and the outlet channel 714 communicate
with the trigger chamber 712. The driving device 72 is mounted in the holding chamber
711, and the trigger assembly 73 is mounted in the trigger chamber 712. The silencer
74 is mounted on a bottom of the body 71 and communicates with the outlet channel
714.
[0003] When the conventional pneumatic tool 70 is in use, the body 71 is connected with
an air compressor with a pipe and compressed air can be led into the inlet channel
713. When the trigger assembly 73 is pressed, the compressed air will be led into
the holding chamber 711 to actuate the driving device 72 and the pneumatic tool 70
works. In addition, redundant air will be discharged from the outlet channel 714.
[0004] With reference to Figs. 22 and 23, compressed air is the power source for driving
the conventional pneumatic tool 70 to operate, but the pressure of the compressed
air is unstable. Thus, the torque output by the conventional pneumatic tool 70 is
also unstable and will be higher or lower than a desired torque.
[0005] In addition, the conventional pneumatic tool is usually operated to lock a fastener
in two stages. In the first stage, the conventional pneumatic tool is applied to initially
lock the fastener with a lower torque. In the second stage, the conventional pneumatic
tool is applied to lock the fastener tightly with a high torque.
[0006] EP 0 900 632 A2 discloses a pneumatic power wrench having a rotation motor supported in a housing,
an output shaft for connection to a screw joint to be tightened, a pressure air inlet
passage controlled by a throttle valve, and an exhaust air outlet passage including
an automatic outlet flow restricting valve.
[0007] WO 2016/055566 A1 discloses a pneumatic impulse wrench comprising a motor, a housing with a pressure
air inlet passage, an exhaust air outlet passage, and an air flow control valve provided
in the exhaust air outlet passage and including a valve element shiftable between
an exhaust air flow restricting position and an exhaust air flow non-restricting position.
[0008] However, the torque output by the conventional pneumatic tool in each stage is not
adjustable, so the conventional pneumatic tool is not versatile in use.
[0009] To overcome the shortcomings, the present invention is provided by appended claim
1 and tends to provide a pneumatic tool to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned
problems. The following disclosure serves a better understanding of the present invention.
[0010] The main objective of the invention is to provide a pneumatic tool that is adjustable
in torque.
[0011] According to the present disclosure, a pneumatic tool has a body, a torque adjusting
unit, and a signal pressure transmitting unit. The body has a trigger chamber, a trigger
assembly, an inlet channel, and an outlet channel. The trigger chamber is defined
in the body. The trigger assembly is mounted in the trigger chamber. The inlet channel
and the outlet channel communicate with the trigger chamber. The torque adjusting
unit is connected with a bottom of the body, is mounted on one end of the outlet channel,
and has a silencer, a piston rod, a piston sleeve, and a spring. The silencer is mounted
detachably on the bottom of the body and has a discharging chamber. The piston rod
is connected adjustably with the silencer and extends into the discharging chamber.
The piston sleeve is mounted around the piston rod and is axially moveable relative
to the piston rod. The spring is mounted around the piston sleeve and has two ends
abutting respectively the piston sleeve and the silencer. The signal pressure transmitting
unit is disposed between the trigger assembly and the torque adjusting unit to transmit
a signal pressure from compressed air led into the inlet channel to the piston rod
of the torque adjusting unit so as to push the piston sleeve to move relative to the
piston rod. The signal pressure transmitting unit has a signal element, a positioning
member, and a guiding tube. The signal element is connected with the trigger assembly
and has a T-shaped cross section. The positioning member is screwed with and co-axial
with the signal element. The guiding tube is connected between and communicating with
the signal element and the piston rod.

[0014] With reference to Figs. 1 to 4, a pneumatic tool in accordance with the present invention
comprises a body 10, a signal pressure transmitting unit 20, and a torque adjusting
unit 30.
[0015] With reference to Figs. 1 and 2, the body 10 may be conventional and has a trigger
chamber 12, a trigger assembly 11, an inlet channel 13, and an outlet channel 14.
The trigger chamber 12 is defined in the body 10. The trigger assembly 11 is mounted
in the trigger chamber 12 and comprises a valve sleeve 110, a valve core 111, a piston
pin 112, and a button 113. The valve core 111 is mounted in the valve sleeve 110.
The piston pin 112 is mounted through the valve core 111. The button 113 is mounted
on an end of the piston pin 112. The inlet channel 13 communicates with the trigger
chamber 12, and the outlet channel 14 communicates with the trigger chamber 12. In
operation, the body 10 is connected with an air compressor with a pipe. When the button
13 is pressed, compressed air can be led into the trigger chamber 12 via the inlet
channel 13 and is applied to actuate a driving device mounted in the body 10 to generate
torque for working.
[0016] The signal pressure transmitting unit 20 is mounted in the trigger chamber 12, is
connected with the valve core 111, and comprises a positioning member 21, a signal
element 22, and a guiding tube 23. The positioning member 21 may be a bolt and is
mounted on a bottom of the valve core 111. The signal element 22 is mounted on the
bottom of the valve core and is co-axial with the positioning member 21. The signal
element 22 has a T-shaped cross section and is screwed with the positioning member
21, such that the position of the signal element 22 relative to the valve core 111
can be adjusted by rotating the positioning member 21. The guiding tube 23 has a first
end connected with the signal element 22 and a second end extending into the outlet
channel 14 in the body 10.
[0017] With reference to Figs. 1 and 2, the torque adjusting unit 30 is connected with a
bottom of the body 10, is mounted on an opening 141 of the outlet channel 14, and
is connected with the signal pressure transmitting unit 20 by the guiding tube 23.
The torque adjusting unit 30 comprises a silencer 31, a piston rod 32, a piston sleeve
33, a blocking pin 34, a spring 35, a piston rod adjusting member 36, and a piston
sleeve adjusting member 37.
[0018] With reference to Figs. 2 and 3, the silencer 31 is mounted detachably on the bottom
of the body 10 and has a sleeve body 311, a connection segment 312, a connection hole
313, a connection thread 314, a discharging chamber 315, and a bottom cap 316. The
connection segment 312 is formed on and protrudes from a top end of the sleeve body
311. The connection hole 313 is defined in the connection segment 312 and is threaded.
The connection thread 314 is formed around the connection segment 312, such that the
sleeve body 311 can be connected detachably with the bottom of the body 10 by the
connection thread 314. The discharging chamber 315 is defined in the sleeve body 311.
The bottom cap 316 is mounted on a bottom end of the sleeve body 311.
[0019] The piston rod 32 is connected rotatably and adjustably with the silencer 31 and
has a first end and a second end. The first end is provided with a first adjusting
thread 321, and the second end is provided with a second adjusting thread 322. The
piston rod 32 further has a guiding channel 323, an abutting flange 324, a discharging
hole 325, and a pin thread 326. The guiding channel 323 is axially defined through
the piston rod 32. The abutting flange 324 is formed around an outer surface at a
middle of the piston rod 32. The discharging hole 325 is defined radially in the piston
rod 32 at a position being adjacent to the abutting flange 324 and communicates with
the guiding channel 323. The pin thread 326 is defined in a bottom end of the guiding
channel 323. The first adjusting thread 321 is screwed with the connection hole 313
in the silencer 31, and the first end of the piston rod 32 extends out of a top end
of the silencer 31.
[0020] The piston sleeve 33 is mounted in the discharging chamber 315 of the silencer 31,
is mounted around the piston rod 32, and is axially moveable relative to the piston
rod 32. The piston sleeve 33 has a guiding segment 331, a discharging space 332, and
an abutting rib 333. The guiding segment 331 is formed on and around a top end of
the piston sleeve 33 and has a conical top surface. The discharging space 332 is defined
in the piston sleeve 33. The abutting rib 333 is annular and is formed on and protrudes
from an inner surface at a middle of the discharging space 332. The abutting flange
324 of the piston rod 32 is mounted in the discharging space 332 and selectively abuts
the abutting rib 333.
[0021] The blocking pin 34 is mounted in the guiding channel 323 of the piston rod 32 and
comprises a blocking segment 341, a pin outer thread 342, and a through hole 343.
The blocking segment 341 is formed on an upper portion of the blocking pin 34 and
extends into the guiding channel 323 of the piston rod 32 to form a gap between an
outer surface of the blocking segment 341 and the inner surface of the guiding channel
323. The pin outer thread 342 is formed around a lower portion of the blocking pin
34 and is screwed with the pin thread 326 in the piston rod 32. The through hole 343
is defined radially in the pin outer thread 342. The spring 35 is mounted around the
piston sleeve 33 and has two ends abutting respectively the guiding segment 331 of
the piston sleeve 33 and the bottom cap 316 of the silencer 31.
[0022] The piston rod adjusting member 36 is screwed with the first adjusting thread 321
on the piston rod 32 and selectively abuts the top of the connection segment 312.
With the rotation of the piston rod adjusting member 36, the axial position of the
piston rod 32 relative to the silencer 31 can be adjusted. The piston sleeve adjusting
member 37 is screwed with the second adjusting thread 322 on the piston rod 32. With
the rotation of the piston sleeve adjusting member 37, the axial position of the piston
sleeve 33 relative to the piston rod 32 can be adjusted.
[0023] With reference to Figs. 4 and 5, in use, the pneumatic tool is connected with a compressed
air source. When the button 113 is pressed, the piston pin 112 will be axially moved
relative to the valve sleeve 110 and the valve core 111. At this time, the compressed
air will enter the trigger chamber 12 via the inlet channel 13. Consequently, the
compressed air can be applied to drive the driving device to output a torque in a
first operation stage.
[0024] With reference to Figs. 5 to 7, during the operation of the pneumatic tool, some
of the compressed air will enter the signal pressure transmitting unit 20, wherein
the pressure of the compressed air entering into the signal pressure transmitting
unit 20 is defined as the signal pressure. The signal pressure will be led into the
torque adjusting unit 30 via the guiding tube 23.
[0025] While the pneumatic tool is applied to output the torque in the first operation stage,
the redundant compressed air that is not applied to drive the driving device will
be discharged into the outlet channel 14 and enters into the torque adjusting unit
30. At this time, an original height H is defined between a top of the piston rod
32 and a top of the piston rod adjusting member 36. When the original height H is
not changed and the signal pressure is equal to the pressure of the discharging air,
the discharging air will push the piston sleeve 33 to move slightly and the piston
sleeve 33 is moved downward relative to the piston rod 32. Consequently, a discharging
gap O is formed between the silencer 31 and the piston sleeve 33 to discharge the
discharging air. At this time, the amount of the discharging air is small, and the
amount of the compressed air into the body 10 is also small. Thus, the pneumatic tool
can be controlled at a low speed and a low torque output.
[0026] With reference to Figs. 7 and 8, to enlarge the output torque, the amount of the
compressed air input into the inlet channel 13 is increased such that the pneumatic
tool can output a large torque in the second operation stage. Consequently, the amount
of the compressed air entering into the signal pressure transmitting unit 20 is also
increased. The signal pressure enters into the torque adjusting unit 30 via the guiding
tube 23 and passes through the gap around the blocking pin 34, and the signal pressure
will enter into the discharging space 332 in the piston sleeve 33 via the discharging
hole 325 in the piston rod 32. When the signal pressure and the pressure of the discharging
air are increasing, the force applied to push the piston sleeve 33 downward will be
larger than the resistant force of the spring 35. Thus, the piston sleeve 33 will
be pushed to move downward relative to the piston rod 32, so the discharging gap O
will be enlarged and the amount of the discharging air is increased. Accordingly,
the amount of the compressed air entering into the body 10 is also increased, and
the rotation speed and the torque of the pneumatic tool will be increased as shown
in Fig. 9. Therefore, the pneumatic tool in accordance with the present invention
can provide different rotation speeds and torques at different operation stages to
fit with different use demands.
[0027] With reference to Figs. 10 to 13, the rotation speeds and the torques at the operation
stages can be adjusted by rotating the piston rod adjusting member 36. When the piston
rod adjusting member 36 is rotated and the piston rod 32 is moved upward and axially
relative to the silencer 31, the original height H will be increased to a first height
HI as shown on the left of Fig. 10. Accordingly, the discharging gap O will be reduced
in both the first operation stage and the second operation stage. Thus, the rotation
speed will be reduced, and the output torque is also decreased.
[0028] On the contrary, when the piston rod adjusting element 36 is rotated and the piston
rod 32 is moved downward relative to the silencer 31, the original height H will be
decreased to a first height HI as shown on the right of Fig. 10. The first height
HI may approach 0. At this time, the discharging gap O is enlarged in both the first
operation stage and the second operation stage, and the amount of the discharging
air is increased. With reference to Fig. 13, the rotation speed in the first operation
stage is increased, and the output torque is also increased and is larger than a predetermined
torque.
[0029] With reference to Figs. 14 to 17, the rotation speeds of the pneumatic tool may be
further adjusted in the second operation stage by rotating the piston sleeve adjusting
member 37. When the piston sleeve adjusting member 37 is rotated and the piston sleeve
33 is moved upward relative to the piston rod 32, a second height H2 between a bottom
of the piston rod 32 and a bottom of the piston rod adjusting member 36 is increased.
When the second height H2 is increased, the dead end of the movement of the piston
sleeve 33 will be moved upward and the movement distance of the piston sleeve 33 is
reduced. Thus, the discharging gap O is reduced, and the amount of the discharging
air will be reduced. Accordingly, the rotation speed of the pneumatic tool will be
reduced, and the output torque will also be decreased and is smaller than a predetermined
torque.
[0030] On the contrary, with reference to Figs, 16 and 17, when the piston sleeve adjusting
element 37 is rotated and the piston sleeve 33 is moved downward relative to the piston
rod 32, the second height H2 will be decreased even to 0. Consequently, the discharging
gap O will be enlarged, and the amount of the discharging air will be increased. Accordingly,
the rotation speed and the torque of the pneumatic tool will be increased.
[0031] With reference to Figs. 18 to 21, the piston rod adjusting member 36 and the piston
sleeve adjusting member 37 can be rotated at the same time, such that the rotation
speeds in the first operation stage and the second operation stage can be adjusted
and the output torques are also adjusted. With reference to Figs. 18 and 19, when
the piston rod adjusting member 36 is rotated to increase the first height HI and
the piston sleeve adjusting member 37 is rotated to decrease the second height H2,
the rotation speed in the first operation stage will be reduced and the rotation speed
in the second operation speed is increased. Accordingly, the output torque approaches
the predetermined torque.
[0032] On the contrary, with reference to Figs. 20 and 21, when the piston rod adjusting
member 36 is rotated to decrease the first height HI and the piston sleeve adjusting
member 37 is rotated to increase the second height H2, the rotation speed in the first
operation stage is increased and the rotation speed in the second operation stage
is decreased. Accordingly, the output torque also approaches the predetermined torque.
[0033] With such an arrangement, the torque adjusting unit 30 in accordance with the present
invention can be adjusted by rotating the piston rod adjusting member 36 and the piston
sleeve adjusting member 37 individually or simultaneously, such that the pneumatic
tool can output different torques at different operation stages, and the pneumatic
tool in accordance with the present invention is versatile in use.
[0034] In addition, the pneumatic tool in accordance with the present invention has the
adjusting function without using electric components or wires, and is easily achieved
by modifying a conventional pneumatic tool without increasing the whole weight and
volume of the conventional pneumatic tool.
