Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hand tool with a tool part and with a portion of the tool part enclosing and torque-connected to this handle.
  • the invention further relates to a method for producing such a hand tool.
  • Such hand tools are, for example, screwdrivers.
  • the tool part in such a hand tool designed as a screwdriver is the blade which has a torque transmission contour on its actuation-side end.
  • the torque transmission contour can be designed differently, for example as a slot contour, as a cross contour or as any other contour which is adapted to transmit a torque to a corresponding counter-contour having screw.
  • the operating end of the blade with its torque transmission contour opposite end is flattened spatula-like. This end is used for the torque-locking connection of a handle.
  • a handle is typically a plastic part. This is molded around the spatula-like flattened end portion of the blade in a plastic molding tool.
  • the handle itself is made of two different plastic components, wherein the difference in the two plastic components may be due to a different color and / or by a different hardness. Different colors are used to give the handle of such a hand tool in its outer surface a specific design. Different hardnesses are used to create a certain feel when gripped and when using the handle. If different plastics are used for the formation of such a handle, with usually only two different plastics being used, this takes place by way of a so-called two-component injection molding process. This means that in a first step to create the handle, the plastic tool geometry is set to the geometry of the first plastic component. Then the tool geometry is changed, so that in the same tool in a second step, the second plastic component can be urgeformt.
  • the second plastic component fills the remaining cavities in the mold cavity.
  • first plastic component is superficially exposed. This is typically a plastic of higher hardness, while the second plastic component is a so-called soft component.
  • the manufacturing process for producing a hand tool with a thus created handle made of two plastic components is due to the necessary tool conversion for retooling the tool from the geometry required for the Urformung the first plastic component geometry of the cavity in the geometry of the cavity, which is required for prototyping the second plastic component also time consuming. Correspondingly long are the cycle times to be realized with such a method. If a change in shape or design is made with respect to the handle, this means that new tools must be produced.
  • EP 2 407 280 A1 discloses a hand tool with a tool part and with a portion of the tool part enclosing and torque-locking connected to this handle.
  • the tool part has, in regions in a section enclosed by the handle, a connection contour serving for the torque-locking connection of the handle.
  • the handle comprises a connectable to the terminal contour and this torque-locking enclosing inner handle and an outer handle made of plastic.
  • the invention is therefore the object of proposing a hand tool with a multi-component handle and a method for producing such a hand tool that can be produced not only in shorter cycle times, but in the one not insignificantly reduced effort shape and / or design changes in the interpretation of the handle can be made.
  • the device-related object is achieved according to the invention by a hand tool of the type mentioned, in which the tool part at least partially in a bordered by the handle portion serving for torque-locking connection of the handle terminal contour and wherein the handle is a connectable to the terminal contour and this torque-locking bordering inner gripping piece, wherein one or more, outwardly open Vergusskanäle are provided with slid on the terminal contour inner handle between two parts, and an outer handle made of plastic, in the way of Kunststoffurformreaes to the unit of tool part with connected to its connection contour inner Molded handle and the at least one casting channel is at least partially filled with the outer handle forming plastic material.
  • the method-related object is achieved by a method having the features of claim 14.
  • the inner handle forms the coupling piece between the tool part with its connection contour and the outer handle.
  • This inner handle which is typically in one piece, but can easily consist of several individual parts, can be connected to the terminal contour of the tool part.
  • the inner handle on the connection contour in the longitudinal axial direction of the tool part can be pushed onto this.
  • the inner handle, if designed in several parts is composed of two shells which, when assembled, surround the connection contour of the tool part in a torque-locking manner.
  • the connectability of the inner handle to the connection contour of the tool part requires that the inner handle is not molded around the terminal contour of the tool part, but made independently of the connection contour is.
  • the inner handle is a plastic part.
  • inner grips made of other materials can be used. Inner grips made of plastic will usually prefer due to the cost-effective production and greater variability in the material used, especially in the training of different geometries.
  • connection contour of the tool part is designed so that the inner handle is torque-tight connected thereto.
  • the connection contour is a plastic body encapsulated around a section of the tool part, for example the screwdriver blade, designed as a polygon, so that the inner grip element can be connected in a torque-locking manner to the connection contour with an inner complementary polygonal contour.
  • the two polygonal contours are adapted to each other in such a way that a torque transmission from the inner handle is given to the connection contour. This does not have the necessary condition that the inner connection contour of the inner handle and the polygonal contour of the connector must have the same geometry.
  • Such a polygonal contour may be formed, for example, as a hexagon. This contour extends in the longitudinal extension of the tool part.
  • the inner contour of the handle and / or the outer contour of the connection contour are coordinated with each other so that one or more Vergusskanäle remain free between them.
  • the potting channels are used to connect the inner handle with the connection contour of the tool part, so that both parts are permanently connected to each other. Ultimately, these two parts can then no longer be separated from each other without destroying each other.
  • the potting channels are potted with a compound intended for the compound.
  • the handle of this hand tool has in addition to the inner handle on an outer handle, which is a plastic part and which is urgeformt to the inner handle.
  • This process is performed after the inner handle is connected to the terminal contour.
  • the outer handle of the outside or the outside open Vergusskanäle be filled, so that in the prototypes of the outer handle at the same time the inner Handle is connected to the connection contour of the tool part. Therefore, in principle for the connection of the inner handle to the terminal contour no separate manufacturing step and not the use of another material is needed.
  • the patch on the contour of the tool part inner handle which thus addressed in this process as a lost inner Kunststoffurformwerkmaschinegne.
  • the terminal contour and the outer handle are manufactured in a plastic injection molding tool in successive steps. Due to the relatively simple geometries to be formed, this can be a so-called open-close tool, ie a tool which basically works without a slide or the like.
  • the inner handle produced in a separate tool typically produced in a separate plastic injection molding tool, however, may also have a complicated surface geometry, as well as apertures, channels, undercuts or the like. Due to the production of the inner handle in a separate plastic injection molding tool, the on-off tool otherwise used for production can be driven at a higher clock frequency. In this tool, the semi-finished products comprising the tool part and placed on the connection contour of the tool part inner handle are inserted.
  • one and the same master mold can be used to form the outer handle to also in terms of their diameter to mold different tool parts therein.
  • the connection contour of the tool part under some circumstances it may be necessary to use different inner grips for different diameters of the tool parts.
  • the inner handle which then represents the inner handle surface for the outer handle, without having to make changes to the open-end tool
  • the inner handle which then represents the inner handle surface for the outer handle
  • the cavities remaining in the mold cavity are filled with the plastic material used to create the outer handle, including the already mentioned casting channels.
  • the design of the tool handle can be varied. Such a variation is possible, for example, with regard to the geometry of surface portions of the inner handle, which also represent a portion of its outer surface in the finished tool handle.
  • the inner handle preferably has a greater hardness (Shore) than the outer handle. In this way, such a handle can be equipped with a special grip. In another embodiment, it is provided that the inner handle has a lower hardness than the outer handle. In such an embodiment, the inner handle acts like a pillow that conforms to the hand of a person using the handle. In such an embodiment, the inner handle is typically generally enclosed by the outer handle, which is also compliant enough for the yielding cushion effect of the inner handle to take effect can. Nevertheless, on the harder outer and with respect to the softer inner handle a shell forming outer handle high torque can be introduced into the handle and thus in the tool.
  • the inner handle is pushed onto the connection contour of the tool part, in a translatory Aufschiebeddling in the longitudinal extent of the tool part.
  • the inner handle is fixed on the connection contour by a detent.
  • the connecting contour carries two diametrically opposite, arranged on the outside latches, which are elastically adjustable in the radial direction.
  • the inner handle carries at a respective location in each case a latching recess, in each of which a catch engages when the inner handle is in its intended position on the connection contour. The remaining between the terminal contour and the inner handle game and the actual connection between these two parts is done by the later filling the potting channels provided.
  • this handle concept is especially suitable for the fact that in some areas the outer surface of the inner handle also represents the surface of the tool handle.
  • these surface areas which are not to be coated by the further plastic component for creating the outer handle, it is provided in a preferred embodiment that these areas of the inner handle are limited by a circumferential sealing lip.
  • This sealing lip acts against the inner wall of the cavity for molding the outer handle and lies under a certain bias on the inner wall of the plastic forming tool.
  • Such a sealing lip can be provided by a corresponding material thinning of the inner grip.
  • the outer surface of the handle is provided by parts of the inner handle, it may be provided that these areas have a special design and / or geometry.
  • a tool handle is provided as a screwdriver handle that a plurality of circumferentially distributed outside arranged rotational drive bead are arranged in those areas of the inner handle, which form the outer surface of the screwdriver handle.
  • Such a configuration is not limited to the described embodiment of this tool handle as a screwdriver handle, but can also be used in other tool handles. At least some of these rotational drive beads are at least partially inclined relative to the handle longitudinal axis in its extension in the direction of the blade of the screwdriver handle against the screwing.
  • rotational driving beads on their side facing away from the screwing-in direction at a low angle with respect to the envelope surface enveloping the handle inclined footprint.
  • rotational driving beads are present, which are inclined with their longitudinal extent relative to the longitudinal extent of the handle and thus, in contrast to Drehit Vietnamesesicken from the prior art are not parallel to the longitudinal extent of the handle.
  • the inclination of the longitudinal extension of these rotational drive beads is directed against the screwing when viewed from its rear end towards the blade.
  • These rotational driving beads have at their side facing the direction of screwing a footprint, which is inclined at a slight angle to the lateral surface of the handle or the handle enveloping the lateral surface.
  • Such a conceived rotational drive bead ensures in addition to an introduction of torque in the screwdriver handle for screwing a screw due to the inclined design of such a rotary driving bead with respect to the longitudinal extent of the screwdriver handle at the same time also providing a force acting in the longitudinal axial direction of the screwdriver handle in the direction of the torque transmission contour of the blade moment. This moment serves to maintain engagement of the blade of the screwdriver with the rotary driving contour of the screw head when torque is applied.
  • a portion of the torque introduced is used for the required engagement torque. In this respect, it is not absolutely necessary in such a screwdriver handle to spend an additional pressing force. For particularly stiff screws, this may also be useful.
  • this provided for the engagement position torque is coupled to the coupled torque. This means that with a high applied torque, the moment to be maintained between the blade and the screw is correspondingly higher. Thus, only by the special screwdriver grip design care is taken that even with a high applied torque on the screwdriver handle, the blade is not levered out of the rotary driving contour of the screw.
  • the footprint provided counter to the screwing-in direction is inclined at only a slight angle relative to the lateral surface of the handle or the lateral surface enveloping the handle. This prevents that in case of possible slippage between the hand of a person using the screwdriver and the screwdriver handle skin of the palm is clamped.
  • inclined rotational driving beads can be provided in addition to already existing rotary driving beads, which follow with respect to their longitudinal extent of the longitudinal extension of the screwdriver handle. Likewise, it is possible that the screwdriver handle has only in the aforementioned manner inclined rotational driving beads.
  • rotational driving beads are curved with respect to their longitudinal extent, wherein the angle between the respective portion of the rotary driving bead and the handle longitudinal axis increases in the direction of the blade.
  • a particularly preferred embodiment of such a screwdriver handle is seen in that the screwdriver handle has a circumferentially roundish surface, in particular a cross-sectional geometry in which a plurality, typically three cycloidal arc sections are provided, which are interconnected by sections having a significantly smaller radius of curvature.
  • the rotational driving beads worked out by introduced into the outer surface depressions, in the field of Zykloidbögen.
  • the lateral surface enveloping the tool handle is preferably not changed in terms of its geometry, so that the rotational driving beads are no ribs, beads or the like projecting beyond the jacket surface otherwise used in such a handle.
  • a recess is typically made V-shaped, wherein the opening width of the flanks is relatively large and typically exceeds an angle of 160 °. This implies that the depth of the recesses for working out the setting bevel for the rotational driving beads need not be particularly deep in order to provide a sufficiently large footprint. It is considered sufficient if the maximum depth of such recess for forming such a footprint is 0.5 mm is.
  • the footprint Due to the low inclination of the footprint this is despite the small depth of the footprint working out recess sufficiently large, ie the footprint has a sufficient extent from the depth line of the recess to the upper end of the rotary driving bead to one of an applied torque the desired acting in the longitudinal direction Derive moment.
  • the extent of that footprint of the rotary driving bead, which points against the screwing, from its pointing to the rear end of the screwdriver handle end to its other end in the extension of the depth line of this footprint forming depression to the upper Conclusion gradually increases. This is the largest height of the footprint of the rotary driving bead, especially when the longitudinal axis of the rotary driving bead is curved in the manner described above, in that portion in which the torque derived from the coupled torque in the longitudinal axial direction is greatest.
