Abstract

An impact rotary tool includes: a driver; a spindle rotated by the driver; a primary hammer rotatable about an axis of rotation of the spindle and movable in a direction of the axis of rotation; a secondary hammer accommodating the primary hammer and rotatable integrally with the primary hammer; and an anvil applied with rotary stroke force by the primary hammer. An engaging pin is engaged with the primary hammer and the secondary hammer, integrally rotates the primary hammer and the secondary hammer, and allows the primary hammer to move in the direction of the axis of rotation. An elastic member is disposed in an annular groove formed in a circumferential direction on the inner peripheral surface of the secondary hammer and limits movement of the engaging pin.

Claims (22)

1. An impact rotary tool, comprising:

a driver;

a spindle rotated by the driver;

a primary hammer rotatable about an axis of rotation of the spindle and movable in a direction of the axis of rotation;

a secondary hammer accommodating the primary hammer and rotatable integrally with the primary hammer; and

an anvil on which the primary hammer applies a rotary stroke force,

wherein the impact rotary tool further comprises:

an engaging pin that is engaged with the primary hammer and the secondary hammer, integrally rotates with the primary hammer and the secondary hammer, and allows the primary hammer to move in the direction of the axis of rotation; and

an elastic member that limits movement of the engaging pin,

wherein a first groove portion is formed in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation on an inner peripheral surface of the secondary hammer and a second groove portion is formed in a circumferential direction on the inner peripheral surface of the secondary hammer,

an open end of the first groove portion is formed on a front side of the secondary hammer and a recessed portion is formed on a rear end of the first groove portion,

the engaging pin is inserted into the first groove portion from the front side of the secondary hammer and a rear end portion of the engaging pin is received by the recessed portion, and

the elastic member is disposed in the second groove portion and abuts against a front end portion of the engaging pin and limits movement of the engaging pin toward the open end of the first groove portion.

2. The impact rotary tool according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first groove portion and the second groove portion intersect, at an intersecting point, on the inner peripheral surface of the secondary hammer, and

the second groove portion is positioned outward from the first groove portion in a radial direction at the intersecting point.

3. The impact rotary tool according to claim 1 ,

wherein the elastic member has a ring shape.

4. The impact rotary tool according to claim 3 ,

wherein an outer diameter of the elastic member having the ring shape is larger than a diameter of the second groove portion.

5. The impact rotary tool according to claim 1 ,

wherein the elastic member is disposed in the second groove portion without protruding inward from the inner peripheral surface of the secondary hammer on which the second groove portion is formed.
