Abstract

An electric tool is configured that oil pressure can be rapidly increased while suppressing the load on a motor. The electric tool includes a main body in which a cylinder part, a hydraulic pump for feeding hydraulic oil to the cylinder part and an electric motor are disposed, and a tool head operated by a pressing force of a piston in the cylinder part. The hydraulic pump has a swash plate cam, a first plunger, a second plunger, a check valve and a relief valve, and until the pressure reaches the first pressure, a first liquid feeding amount of the first plunger is increased than a second liquid feeding amount of the second plunger.

Claims (14)

1. An electric tool comprising:

a main body in which a cylinder part, an oil tank, a hydraulic pump for feeding hydraulic oil inside the oil tank to the cylinder part, and an electric motor for driving the hydraulic pump are disposed;

a tool head operated by a pressing force of a piston in the cylinder part in a state of being coupled to the main body; and

a battery that supplies electric power to the electric motor,

wherein the hydraulic pump has

a swash plate cam rotated while being coupled to a drive shaft of the electric motor, and

a plurality of plungers disposed around an axis passing through the drive shaft in the cylinder part and reciprocating while being in contact with the swash plate cam,

a first plunger of the plungers is provided with a check valve that opens at a first pressure on a secondary side,

a second plunger of the plungers is not provided with the check valve on the secondary side,

a relief valve that opens at a second pressure higher than the first pressure is disposed in the cylinder part, and

until the pressure reaches the first pressure, a first liquid feeding amount of the first plunger is increased more than a second liquid feeding amount of the second plunger.

2. The electric tool according to claim 1 , wherein a product of a plunger stroke L 1 , a plunger cross-section area S 1 , and the number of plungers N 1 in the first plunger is larger than a product of a plunger stroke L 2 , a plunger cross-section area S 2 , and the number of plungers N 2 in the second plunger.

3. The electric tool according to claim 2 , wherein the oil tank communicates with the hydraulic pump via the check valve, and the oil tank communicates with the cylinder part via the relief valve.

4. The electric tool according to claim 1 , wherein the oil tank communicates with the hydraulic pump via the check valve, and the oil tank communicates with the cylinder part via the relief valve.
