Machine tool having an electric drive motor
A machine tool, in particular a powered hand tool, has an electric drive motor to which pole shoes are assigned in order to conduct a magnetic field. Furthermore, a fan wheel is provided in order to produce a stream of cooling air. In the housing, an air-guiding element forms a portion of the flow path for the stream of cooling air. According to the invention, the air-guiding element at least partially covers the pole shoes.
1. A handheld power tool comprising:
an electrical drive motor, which has pole pieces for guiding a magnetic field;
a fan wheel for generating a cooling air flow to be guided through a housing of the power tool along a flow course; and
an air guide element in the housing which forms a portion of the flow course of the cooling air flow, the air guide element arranged to cover the pole pieces in such a way that the pole pieces are located outside the flow course of the cooling air flow,
wherein the air guide element includes an air guide ring into which the cooling air flow enters the housing and an air guide stub extending axially from the air guide ring in the direction of the flow course, the air guide ring and the air guide stub defining an annular chamber that receives a face end of the pole pieces, the annular chamber being bounded radially on the inside by the air guide stub and bounded radially on the outside by the air guide ring and located outside the flow course of the cooling air flow,
and
wherein the pole pieces are located radially outside the air guide stub and within the annular chamber.
2. The machine tool as defined by claim 1 , wherein the air guide stub is embodied as part of the air guide ring.
3. The machine tool as defined by claim 1 , wherein the air guide stub has at least one flow scoop protruding into the flow course.
4. The machine tool as defined by claim 3 , wherein the at least one flow scoop is adjustable between an open position and a closed position.
5. The machine tool as defined by claim 3 , wherein the at least one flow scoop is oriented radially to the flow course.
6. The machine tool as defined by claim 1 , wherein the fan wheel is received in the air guide element.
7. The machine tool as defined by claim 1 , wherein the fan wheel is received in the air guide ring.
8. The machine tool as defined by claim 1 , wherein the air guide element is arranged so that the flow course of the cooling air flow extends on a radial inside of the pole pieces.
9. The machine tool as defined by claim 1 , wherein the air guide element is arranged so that the flow course of the cooling air flow discharges into an interior space defined by the air guide stub.
10. The machine tool as defined by claim 1 , wherein the air guide stub is situated radially inwardly of the air guide ring.
11. The machine tool as defined by claim 10 , wherein at least one flow scoop is formed in one piece with the air guide stub and opens into the annular chamber serving as a pole piece receiving portion.
12. The machine tool as defined by claim 11 , wherein the air guide element is arranged so that the flow course of the cooling air flow discharges into an interior of the cylindrical air guide stub and the at least one flow scoop opens a further flow course between the interior of the air guide stub and the annular chamber so that a partial flow of the cooling air flow enters the annular chamber radially.
13. The machine tool as defined by claim 11 , wherein the at least one flow scoop is adjustable between an open position and a closed position.
14. A handheld power tool comprising:
an electrical drive motor, which has pole pieces for guiding a magnetic field;
a fan wheel for generating a cooling air flow to be guided through a housing of the power tool along a flow course; and
an air guide element in the housing which forms a portion of the flow course of the cooling air flow, the air guide element arranged to cover the pole pieces in such a way that the pole pieces are located outside the flow course of the cooling air flow,
wherein the air guide element includes an air guide ring into which the cooling air flow enters the housing and an air guide stub extending axially in the direction of the flow course, the air guide ring and the air guide stub defining an annular chamber that receives a face end of the pole pieces, the annular chamber being located outside the flow course of the cooling air flow,
wherein the pole pieces are located radially outside the air guide stub and within the annular chamber,
wherein the cylindrical air guide stub is situated radially inwardly of the air guide ring,
wherein an inner wall surface of the air guide ring and an outer wall surface of the air guide stub define the annular chamber,
wherein at least one flow scoop is formed in one piece with the air guide stub and opens into the annular chamber serving as a pole piece receiving portion,
wherein the at least one flow scoop is adjustable between an open position and a closed position, and
wherein the air scoop is connected to a wall of the air guide stub via a film hinge.
