Auto hammer
An auto hammer having a housing having a grip portion defining a central axis and a head assembly including a striking device which has a striking rod defining a central axis. The striking device is pivotable relative to the grip portion and the angle between the central axis of the grip and the central axis of the striking rod can range between 60° and 180°. The auto hammer thus provides a pivotable striking device and is thereby suitable for different working circumstances.
1. An auto hammer, comprising:
a housing having a grip portion defining a central axis of the grip portion;
a motor contained in the housing;
a switch arranged on the housing for controlling the motor; and
a head assembly mounted at one end of the housing, including a rotation-linear movement transmission mechanism arranged along the central axis of the grip portion and a striking device which has a striking rod and a retractable receiving cavity for contacting a surface of an object to be processed;
wherein the rotation-linear movement transmission mechanism is arranged in the housing for converting rotating motion of the motor into impact motion of the striking rod,
wherein the retractable receiving cavity is pivotable relative to the grip portion, and an angle between the central axis of the grip portion and a central axis of retractable receiving cavity is between 60° and 180°.
2. The auto hammer according to claim 1 , wherein the angle between the central axis of the grip portion and the central axis of the retractable receiving cavity is 60°.
3. The auto hammer according to claim 1 , wherein the angle between the central axis of the grip portion and the central axis of the retractable receiving cavity is 90°.
4. The auto hammer according to claim 1 , wherein the angle between the central axis of the grip portion and the central axis of the retractable receiving cavity is 110°.
5. The auto hammer according to claim 1 , wherein the angle between the central axis of the grip portion and the central axis of the retractable receiving cavity is 180°.
6. The auto hammer according to claim 1 , wherein the housing is arranged with a lighting source thereon.
7. The auto hammer according to claim 6 , wherein the light source is a LED.
8. The auto hammer according to claim 6 , wherein the lighting source is pivotable together with the retractable receiving cavity.
9. The auto hammer according to claim 1 , wherein the auto hammer further comprises a locking mechanism for locking the retractable receiving cavity to prevent the same from pivotally moving relative to the grip portion.
10. The auto hammer according to claim 9 , wherein at least one hole is provided on the striking device, a locking pin is rated into the at least one hole, and a locking hole is provided on the grip portion, the retractable receiving cavity being locked when the locking pin enters into the locking hole and being unlocked when the locking pin is ejected out of the locking hole.
11. The auto hammer according to claim 10 , wherein the locking mechanism includes a button for moving the locking pin.
12. The auto hammer according to claim 1 , wherein the rotation-linear movement transmission does not move relative to the central axis of the grip portion.
13. The auto hammer according to claim 1 , wherein the rotation-linear movement transmission mechanism comprises an impact wheel which has at least one projection extended along the diameter direction thereof, the at least one projection contacts the striking rod intermittently.
14. The auto hammer according to claim 1 , wherein when the angle is 180°, the central axis of the grip portion is parallel with the central axis of the retractable receiving cavity, which are not collinear.
