Abstract

An electric hand tool ( 2 ) including a gearing component ( 4 ) and a motor component ( 6 ). A mounting bracket ( 8 ) is located between the gearing component ( 4 ) and the motor component after final assembly. A gear shaft ( 20 ) and an motor shaft ( 30 ) are suspended on the mounting bracket ( 8 ). The mounting bracket ( 8 ) features two mounting bracket components ( 10, 12; 64, 72 ), of which the gearing component ( 4 ) is allocated to one ( 10; 72 ) and the motor component ( 6 ) is allocated to the other ( 12; 64 ). Both mounting bracket components ( 10, 12; 64, 72 ) are linked to each other via a connection ( 46; 74 ).

Claims (11)

1. An electric hand tool with a gearing component ( 4 ) and a motor component ( 6 ), a mounting bracket ( 8 ) is located between the gearing component ( 4 ) and the motor component ( 6 ) after final assembly, a gear shaft and a motor shaft are suspended on the mounting bracket ( 8 ), wherein the mounting bracket ( 8 ) features two mounting bracket components ( 10 , 12 ; 64 , 72 ), the gearing component ( 4 ) is allocated to one of the mounting bracket components ( 10 ; 72 ) and the motor component ( 6 ) is allocated to the other of the mounting bracket components ( 12 ; 64 ), wherein the two mounting bracket components ( 10 , 12 ; 64 , 72 ) are linked to each other by a connection ( 46 ; 74 ) and wherein at least one of the mounting bracket components ( 10 , 12 ; 64 , 72 ) includes interchangeable insert bits.

2. The electric hand tool of claim 1 , wherein the mounting bracket components ( 10 , 12 ; 64 , 72 ) are detachably connected to each other.

3. The electric hand tool of claim 1 , wherein the mounting bracket components ( 10 , 12 ; 64 , 72 ) include a permanent connection ( 46 ; 74 ) after final assembly.

4. The electric hand tool of claim 1 , wherein the mounting bracket components ( 10 , 12 ; 64 , 72 ) include an adhesive layer ( 49 ) on mutual contact surfaces ( 48 , 50 ).

5. The electric hand tool of claim 4 , wherein the adhesive layer ( 49 ) can be thermally activated.

6. The electric hand tool of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the mounting bracket components ( 10 , 12 ; 64 , 72 ) is a stamping component.

7. The electric hand tool of claim 6 , wherein at least one of the mounting bracket components ( 10 , 12 ; 64 , 72 ) includes a sleeve-like journal bearing ( 62 ) showing a block ( 68 ) on a first opening ( 66 ) and a second opening ( 78 ) can at least be partially sealed by the other mounting bracket component ( 10 , 12 ; 64 , 72 ).

8. The electric hand tool of claim 7 , wherein the journal bearing ( 16 ; 28 , 62 ) is connected to the remaining mounting bracket component ( 10 , 12 ; 64 , 72 ) by a membrane sector ( 52 ).

9. The electric hand tool of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the mounting bracket components ( 10 , 12 ; 64 , 72 ) includes a mainly bowl-shaped shaft collet ( 14 ; 26 ) to accept a journal bearing ( 16 ; 28 ).

10. The electric hand tool of claim 9 , wherein the journal bearing ( 16 ; 28 ) is crimped into the shaft collet ( 14 ; 26 ).

11. The electric hand tool of claim 1 , wherein the mounting bracket ( 8 ) includes drill holes that connect the interior of the gearing component ( 4 ) with an internal space ( 58 ) in the mounting bracket ( 8 ).
