Pressure-operated power screwdriver having a measuring section
The power screwdriver comprises a functional part ( 11 ) with a housing ( 14 ) through which a shaft ( 17 ) passes. The shaft ( 17 ) is provided with a toothing ( 18 ), into which a ratchet lever of the functional part ( 11 ) engages. A splined shaft toothing ( 20 ) of the shaft ( 17 ) has an insertion recess ( 21 ) that changes into a cavity ( 22 ). The wall of the cavity ( 22 ) is provided with a torsion sensor ( 23 ) and forms a measuring section ( 25 ) that is located in the area of the shaft ( 17 ) covered by the housing ( 14 ). A torsion measurement is effected in the measuring section ( 25 ). Due to the measuring section ( 25 ) being located in the area of the shaft covered by the housing ( 14 ), the shaft ( 17 ) is relatively short whereby it may be used under tight spatial screwing conditions involving a low head height above the screw. The power wrench is additionally provided with an angle measuring device ( 33 ) whereby torque and angle of rotation can be simultaneously provided and can be used for controlling and recording.
