Electric tool
Disclosed in the present invention is an electric tool, comprising: a housing, comprising a first opening; working equipment; a power apparatus, at least partially located in the housing and driving the working equipment; a surrounding structure, at least partially surrounding the power apparatus, the surrounding structure defining a second opening; and a blocking structure located between the first opening and the second opening.
1. An electric tool, wherein the electric tool comprises:
a housing, comprising a first opening through an exterior surface of the housing;
working equipment, the working equipment being selected from the group consisting of:
a centrifugal fan, an axial fan, a cutter, and a drill;
a motor, at least partially located in the housing and driving the working equipment;
a surrounding structure, located in the housing and at least partially surrounding the motor, the surrounding structure defining a second opening, the first opening and the second opening having different orientations; and
a blocking structure located between the first opening and the second opening such that air can go around the periphery of the blocking structure and through the first opening, the blocking structure being configured to substantially block any direct pathway for noise generated by the working equipment and/or the motor through the first opening and the second opening, wherein the blocking structure does not form part of the exterior surface of the housing.
2. The electric tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the orientation of the first opening is at right angles to the orientation of the second opening.
3. The electric tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first opening is a ventilation port.
4. The electric tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the blocking structure is located at an inner side of the first opening.
5. The electric tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the blocking structure is arranged closer to the first opening than to the second opening.
6. The electric tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the housing comprises multiple baffles located in the interior thereof.
7. The electric tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the surrounding structure surrounds the motor circumferentially.
8. The electric tool as claimed in claim 7 , wherein a height of the surrounding structure is greater than a height of the motor.
9. The electric tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the electric tool further comprises control apparatus located close to the second opening.
10. The electric tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a maximum dimension of the control apparatus is larger than a dimension of the second opening.
11. The electric tool as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the control apparatus comprises a control circuit board and a cooling apparatus having the control circuit board mounted thereon, and a maximum dimension of the cooling apparatus is larger than a dimension of the second opening.
12. The electric tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the working equipment is fixed to the housing by means of the surrounding structure.
13. The electric tool as claimed in claim 12 , wherein at least one of the surrounding structure, the blocking structure and a vibration-reducing member is formed of a sound-absorbing material.
14. The electric tool as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising an inlet assembly, the inlet assembly comprising at least one inlet in fluid communication with the working equipment, the at least one inlet being oriented at an angle to an axis of the working equipment.
15. The electric tool as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the at least one inlet comprises multiple inlets arranged along a circumference, each of the multiple inlets being formed between multiple adjacent blades.
16. The electric tool as claimed in claim 15 , wherein the multiple adjacent blades are arranged along the circumference and constructed so that an air stream enters the inlet assembly substantially in the direction of a tangent to the circumference.
17. The electric tool as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the inlet assembly comprises a bottom face extending in a plane perpendicular to an axis of the working equipment.
18. The electric tool as claimed in claim 17 , wherein the bottom face comprises a sound-absorbing material.
19. The electric tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the electric tool is a centrifugal blower.
20. An electric tool, wherein the electric tool comprises:
a housing, comprising a first opening;
working equipment, the working equipment being selected from the group consisting of: a centrifugal fan, an axial fan, a cutter, and a drill;
a motor, at least partially located in the housing and driving the working equipment;
a surrounding structure, located in the housing and at least partially surrounding the motor, the surrounding structure defining a second opening,
the first opening and the second opening having different orientations; and
a blocking structure located between the first opening and the second opening such that air can go around the periphery of the blocking structure and through the first opening, the blocking structure being configured to block a direct pathway for noise generated by the working equipment and/or the motor through the first opening and the second opening,
wherein the blocking structure is arranged substantially parallel to a housing outer surface through which the first opening is formed.
