Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sanding tool capable of selectively performing random orbital sanding or regular orbital sanding.
  • a sanding tool is either a random orbital sander or a regular orbital sander.
  • a random orbital sander an oscillating disc rotates independently of the motor and performs random orbital movement.
  • Such a sander is in general used for removing relatively large quantities of material.
  • a regular orbital sander an oscillating disc cannot rotate independently of the motor and performs regular orbital movement.
  • Such a sander is in general used for removing relatively small quantities of material (for example for detailed work or for finishing). If a user wishes to have the ability to perform both coarse and detailed sanding, it has been in general necessary to purchase both a random orbital sander and a regular orbital sander.
  • US-A-6132300 discloses a dual function sander. Oscillating discs may be selectively mounted on the sander by connection means to perform random orbital sanding or regular orbital sanding.
  • the connection means includes a plurality of rigid elements and a plurality of flexible columns and is complex to manufacture. The flexible columns are easily invalidated and high quality materials are required which increase costs. Additionally the oscillating discs must be changed to perform random sanding or regular sanding which is troublesome and inconvenient to a user.
  • US-B-6739493 discloses a sander with a gear.
  • the gear has a switch device and at least two types of grinding wheel motion can be pre-selected by means of the switch device.
  • the switch device has a two-part housing and a switching ring having a grip. The grip extends through a slot in the housing and the switching ring cooperates with two pear wheels that mesh with each other.
  • the switch device includes two locking bolts cooperating with at least one recess in the first pear wheel or the second pear wheel such that the sander may be described as a twin speed regular sander. When the locking bolts are disconnected from the recesses in the two pear wheels, the sander can be described as a random orbital sander. Such a sander needs many elements and the construction is complex and costly. Furthermore the two locking bolts rigidly connected to the switching ring produces strong vibrations.
  • EP-A-0525328 discloses a sander with a rotating drive motor and a grinding disc driven by the motor via an eccentric device. This can be changed from a random orbital sander to a regular orbital sander by an auxiliary device.
  • the auxiliary device is assembled in the housing and the grinding disc, the sander can be described as a regular orbital sander.
  • the auxiliary device is disassembled, the sander can be described as a random orbital sander.
  • the user assembles and disassembles the auxiliary device to perform both random orbital sanding and regular orbital sanding which is troublesome and inconvenient.
  • the present invention seeks to improve dual function sanding tools by exploiting a simple coupling-decoupling element.
  • the present invetion provides a sanding tool comprising:
  • the coupling-decoupling element of the sanding tool of the present invention advantageously couples or decouples the restraining element and the sanding shoe with minimal elements and a simple construction produced at low cost.
  • the coupling-decoupling element is convenient for the user to change function.
  • the restraining element is flexibly mounted on the housing which will produce less vibrations and improve comfort.
  • the coupling-decoupling element is rotational between the first position and the second position.
  • the coupling-decoupling element may be rotational substantially in a horizontal or vertical plane.
  • the coupling-decoupling element is slidable ( eg linearly slidable) between the first position and the second position.
  • the coupling-decoupling element is elevational relative to the restraining element between the first position and the second position.
  • the sanding tool has an operating arm connected to or integral with the coupling-decoupling element.

  • the coupling-decoupling element is movably (eg rollingly or slidingly) connected to the sanding shoe, wherein in the first position the coupling-decoupling element is disconnected from the restraining element and in the second position the coupling-decoupling element is connected to the restraining element.
  • the coupling-decoupling element is movably (eg rollingly or slidingly) connected to the restraining element, wherein in the first position the coupling-decoupling element is disconnected from the sanding shoe and in the second position the coupling-decoupling element is connected to the sanding shoe.
  • the coupling-decoupling element is synchronously disconnected from the restraining element and the sanding shoe and in the second position the coupling-decoupling element is synchronously connected to the restraining element and the sanding shoe.
  • the coupling-decoupling element is disposed between the housing and the restraining element and in the first position the coupling-decoupling element is synchronously disconnected from the restraining element and the sanding shoe and in the second position the coupling-decoupling element is synchronously connected with the restraining element and the sanding shoe.
