Abstract

A torque transmission mechanism includes a magnet coupling including a driving magnet member coupled to a side of driving shaft driven into rotation by a motor and a driven magnet member coupled to a side of an output shaft on which a front-end tool is attachable. A clutch mechanism is provided between the motor and the torque transmission mechanism. A moment of inertia on the side of the driven magnet member is larger than a moment of inertia on the side of the driving magnet member.

Claims (7)

1. An electric power tool comprising: a driving shaft that is driven into rotation by a motor; an output shaft on which a front-end tool is attachable; a torque transmission mechanism that includes a magnet coupling including a driving magnet member coupled to a driving shaft side and a driven magnet member coupled to an output shaft side, a moment of inertia on a driven magnet member side being larger than a moment of inertia on a driving magnet member side; and a clutch mechanism provided between the motor and the torque transmission mechanism, wherein, the electric power tool is configured such that, when synchronization between the driving magnet member and the driven magnet member is lost, an angular velocity by which the driven magnet member is rotated in a reverse direction is smaller than an angular velocity by which the driving magnet member is rotated in a normal direction.

2. The electric power tool according to claim 1 , wherein

the moment of inertia on the driven magnet member side is less than 100 times the moment of inertia on the driving magnet member side.

3. The electric power tool according to claim 1 , wherein

the driving magnet member is an inner rotor, and the driven magnet member is an outer rotor.

4. The electric power tool according to claim 2 , wherein

the driving magnet member is an inner rotor, and the driven magnet member is an outer rotor.
